The Xie family of Lin'an is considered a prominent family, yet they actually let their children wear such low-quality clothes!
Look how brittle this fabric is, even paper is stronger than it!
Shen Qiqi was angry.
But when she looked at the half sleeve fluttering in the wind in her hand, and then at Xie Beiming with a sullen expression, Shen Qiqi panicked like a dog again, and hurriedly put the torn half sleeve on Xie Beiming's arm.
"I'm sorry, Master Xie, I didn't mean to do that. I was just too excited. I, I, I... I'll help you put your sleeve back on!"
He spoke as if the sleeve could be put back together without sewing.
Looking at Shen Qiqi who was frantically helping him fix his sleeves, Xie Beiming had a strange look in his eyes, as if he was looking at a fool.
The fool only realized that he was a fool after he broke out in a sweat. He slapped his forehead and said with sudden enlightenment: "Oh, look at my brain. I actually forgot that clothes need to be sewn with needle and thread."
"Really? Can't it be connected without needle and thread?"
Xie Beiming rarely raised one corner of his mouth, smiling meaningfully.
Unfortunately, someone didn't see it and replied without even looking up, "Of course it can't be connected without needle and thread. This is basic common sense, even a fool knows... Ugh!"
The voice suddenly paused, Shen Qiqi raised her eyes, raised her eyebrows, and her gaze fell on the corner of Master Xie's mouth, then narrowed her eyes.
"Xie Beiming, you did this on purpose, didn't you?"
I deliberately set a trap for her to fall into so that she would admit that she was a fool!
This is unbelievable. Young Master Xie, the role model for children from aristocratic families, has actually learned to make fun of others!
Shen Qiqi gnashed her teeth in anger, her eyes drifting towards Xie Beiming's other sleeve, considering whether to tear it off as well.
Her thoughts were clearly written on her face. Xie Beiming immediately turned sideways to protect his sleeves and squinted at her.
"Shen Qiqi, what do you want to do?"
"...I wasn't thinking of anything." Shen Qiqi laughed guiltily, "I was just thinking about how to help you sew your sleeves back on."
Xie Beiming: "..."
I wouldn't believe you.
In the end, Shen Qiqi still failed to connect the half sleeve of Master Xie.
It’s not that she was throwing a tantrum, but Miss Shen’s hands, which could hold a sword and draw talismans, really couldn’t control a small embroidery needle.
In the end, they had to ask Sister Qiulan, the hostess of the house they were staying in, for help, and only then were they able to sew the half sleeve of Xie Beiming back on.
Because it was getting late, Shen Qiqi and Xie Beiming did not rush to leave that night, but stayed for another night.
According to Shen Qiqi's wish, she actually wanted to stay for a few more days before leaving.
Farm life is so wonderful, simple and peaceful. All you have to worry about every day is how to find food to fill your stomach.
Unfortunately, most of the wishes in this world cannot be fulfilled, otherwise they would not be called wishes.
The next morning, after breakfast, the two said goodbye to Sister Qiulan and her family and set off for Wuji Sect.
From their current location, it was not far from the Wuji Sect. The two of them flew on their swords without much rest on the way, and they arrived at the Wuji Sect in just one day.
To be precise, they arrived at a small town not far from the Wuji Sect.
The Wuji Sect will not officially open its gates until tomorrow.
Before that, the children of noble families who came from all over to participate in the selection, as well as the maids and servants they brought with them, and some independent cultivators in the mountains and fields who thought they had good talents and had the hope of being selected, all stopped in this small town called Yunjian to rest for a while.
Although Yunjian Town is backed by the Wuji Sect's mountain, the Wuji Sect's mountain gate has been closed all year round. This is something known to the entire cultivation world. Therefore, although Yunjian City has beautiful scenery, there are not many outsiders on weekdays.
It was the first time that so many foreign guests suddenly flocked in.
For a time, all the major inns in the city were overcrowded and could not accommodate so many people. Some latecomers, like Shen Qiqi, could only stay in the next town a little further away.
Shen Qiqi didn't know about this. She dragged Xie Beiming around the town and even promised to pay three times the rent, but in the end she couldn't find a vacant room.
As night fell and she still hadn't found a place to stay, Shen Qiqi couldn't help but feel a little worried.
"Looks like we're going to be sleeping on the streets tonight."
"Not necessarily." Xie Beiming narrowed his eyes and looked somewhere.
Shen Qiqi thought he had found an inn with available rooms, and excitedly followed his gaze. However, she saw that he was looking at a teahouse across the street, and was immediately disappointed.
"That's a teahouse. They only serve tea and don't keep customers."
“Teahouses don’t keep customers, but the people in them do.”
“…”
This is a bit confusing.
Before Shen Qiqi understood what was meant, she saw a window in the teahouse opposite suddenly opened, and then a head popped out of the window and waved at her across the crowd.
"Girl! Girl! Here, here!"
Shen Qiqi thought the voice sounded familiar, squinting her eyes and looking over. When she saw the person's appearance clearly, her eyes lit up and she exclaimed in surprise, "Qingluo!"
The person waving at her was none other than her maid Qingluo.
The little maid had already run across the street to her and said excitedly, "Miss, why are you here just now? We have been waiting for you here for several days!"
"Mr. Xie and I had something to do, so we were delayed."
Shen Qiqi explained, without much joy on her face.
She narrowed her eyes, looked over the little maid's head, and looked coldly at the person who was walking towards her.
