Unable to see the scene inside, Su Chenyu tugged at Baili Yanqing's sleeve. Baili Yanqing immediately understood what she meant, pulled her to the side, and jumped onto the roof next to her. This angle was just right to see the crowd clearly.
Everyone was gathering in front of a store called Shenfei. There was a carriage parked in front of the store. The person who just said she wanted to get an umbrella should be the beautiful maid standing outside the carriage.
A woman came out of the shop, holding a tray covered with a red cloth.
The maid walked up to the woman and asked her, "Manager Yin, is this the umbrella?"
Yin Jiuniang nodded, and the maid lifted the red cloth and looked at the umbrella underneath. She picked up the umbrella and opened it directly.
As she opened the umbrella, the lotus flower painted on the umbrella slowly blossomed from a bud, vivid and lifelike.
Su Chenyu had never seen such a delicate umbrella. She didn't know what material the umbrella was made of, but it looked extremely shiny, and the painting on it was a stroke of genius. She didn't know how much effort it took to make such an umbrella.
The maid showed the umbrella in front of everyone, and the onlookers all exclaimed in admiration, praising the umbrella that Shen Hong produced, which was never disappointing.
The maid put the umbrella away again, walked to the carriage, and presented the umbrella to him: "Little girl, do you think this umbrella suits your taste?"
A corner of the carriage curtain was lifted, and a hand stretched out from inside.
All of a sudden, everyone's eyes fell on that hand, because it was so beautiful, with slender fingers, flawless and the exposed white wrist that aroused even more speculation.
When that hand grasped the umbrella, even Yin Jiuniang couldn't help but praise: "Young lady's hand really suits this umbrella."
The person in the carriage took the umbrella in, and after a while, a slightly cold voice was heard: "This umbrella is very much to my liking, Huaqiu, please pay the remaining silver."
Huaqiu handed the prepared silver to Yin Jiuniang and said, "Manager Yin, please count it."
Yin Jiuniang just glanced at it and handed the silver to the clerk behind her: "No problem."
After the payment was made, Huaqiu drove away in her carriage, and Yin Jiuniang also left the shop.
"Let's catch up." Su Chenyu pulled Baili Yanqing and chased in the direction of the carriage, and soon they found the trace of the carriage.
"Do you know the people in the carriage?" Baili Yanqing asked.
Su Chenyu nodded: "It's Feng Zhuohua!"
"What?" Baili Yanqing was a little curious about how Su Chenyu recognized Feng Zhuohua.
"She is good at the art of mechanisms, and her hands are very well protected. I observed it last time." People who are unrivaled in the art of mechanisms pay the most attention to their hands, so when she showed her hand, Su Chenyu recognized it immediately.
"Feng Zhuohua is very alert and must have discovered someone was following her. As long as she's still in Fufeng Town, we'll definitely be able to find her."
Su Chenyu knew that she couldn't find Feng Zhuohua for the time being: "Then let's go first."
In an empty alley, a horse-drawn carriage was parked safely. Feng Zhuohua sat in the carriage, playing with the lotus umbrella.
Huaqiu came over soon: "Sir, there are two groups of people following us."
"Have you found out who it is?"
"One group of people is very familiar with the terrain of Fufeng Town. They ran away before I found them. The other group of people, I saw from afar, they looked like Fengyi Gong and Baili Yanqing."
"Heh." Feng Zhuohua's light laughter came from the carriage. Her hand slowly stroked the umbrella. "This Fufeng Town is really becoming more and more interesting..."
