"Sister Ji, come on, let's not do embroidery today, I'll take you out to play some fun things!"
Suddenly remembering something, Lin Yuxin stood up abruptly and pulled Ji Qingxue outside.
"Oh! Princess, where are we going!"
Ji Qingxue hurriedly put down her needlework and was pulled outside by Lin Yuxin.
Lin Yuxin took Ji Qingxue out of the Ji residence and they started strolling around the streets. She showed Ji Qingxue what was fun and interesting to do and what was interesting to see.
Lin Yuxin did all the talking the whole way, while Ji Qingxue just smiled gently and kept her company.
Rather than saying Lin Yuxin dragged Ji Qingxue out to play, it would be more accurate to say that Ji Qingxue accompanied Lin Yuxin out to play.
In the end, Lin Yuxin followed the same old routine and took Ji Qingxue directly to the teahouse to listen to storytelling.
This book is different. Ever since she accidentally learned that the teahouse belonged to Li Xiaochen, she's been thinking about how to make the storyteller's tales more engaging and interesting.
So she stayed up all night writing two chapters of Journey to the West to test the waters. As a result, the old man said that the book had stirred up a hornet's nest, and the teahouse was packed with people every day.
Those who came to listen to the story have been waiting until after the New Year. Seeing the great response to the story, Lin Yuxin simply wrote it all down from memory. She couldn't remember all the contents of Journey to the West. Although her version might differ slightly from what she read in her previous life, it was roughly the same!
As long as the meaning is the same, it's all the same story of the four travelers going to obtain the Buddhist scriptures. Nobody here knows how the stories are different.
The result was that it was a classic work that had been around for thousands of years. Even though the content had been changed, the effect was surprisingly good, and the daily number of visitors did not decrease but increased.
Li Xiaochen's teahouse has seen its daily revenue triple compared to before.
"The Laifu Tea House has been very popular lately. My father wanted to invite his colleagues to come and have tea and listen to storytelling, but he couldn't get a reservation."
Ji Qingxue followed Lin Yuxin into the private room in surprise and exclaimed in amazement.
Although she doesn't go out often, she's not ignorant. She knows a lot about people in the capital and what happened at Prince Gong's Mansion. Although she doesn't know who the mastermind is, she felt relieved when she heard the news.
"This is the prince's shop."
Lin Yuxin said something simple, without saying anything else, but Ji Qingxue understood.
The news that Princess Pingning was going to marry Prince Li had already spread throughout the capital. There had been rumors about it when they returned, but no one believed them.
Not long ago, the Emperor issued an imperial edict, even setting the wedding date. Only then did they realize that the Emperor had already issued the decree to bestow marriage upon the two of them long ago, and now he was setting the wedding date directly, and in such a hurry.
This broke the hearts of many wealthy and beautiful young ladies in Beijing.
Ji Qingxue knew perfectly well what was going on, so she didn't bring it up again. The two sat in the private room, while the storyteller in the hall below had already begun telling the story of "Three Battles with the White Bone Demon".
Ji Qingxue became engrossed in the listening, and Lin Yuxin didn't disturb her; she had brought her out to help her relax.
They listened for so long that it was almost afternoon. Seeing that it was getting late, Lin Yuxin called Ji Qingxue to go home.
Ji Qingxue looked at the sky, her heart tightening. She had never gone home this late before. She felt a little uneasy, but also a little happy.
However, on the way to send Ji Qingxue off, some foolish person came out to provoke her, showing no respect for the world.
Here's what happened: Lin Yuxin wanted to take Ji Qingxue home, but Ji Qingxue refused. The two got into a scuffle on the road, which attracted the attention of someone with ulterior motives.
Having followed the two men all the way, just as they were about to reach the Ji residence, the two thugs jumped out and said with lewd expressions:
"Hey, these two girls are really pretty today!! How about it? Be a good boy and let us brothers have some fun, then we'll let you go."
Lin Yuxin raised an eyebrow. She didn't believe these two were just lustful; they dared to provoke her so openly. She tentatively asked:
"You don't want to be thugs, so tell me, who gave you permission to harass us?"
"What nonsense are you spouting? I just want to have some fun with you guys because you're good-looking. Who brought this whole 'behind-the-scenes' thing? If you guys aren't coming over, then the two of us brothers will just take matters into our own hands!"
The two exchanged a glance, vehemently denied it, and then, as if they couldn't wait any longer, rubbed their hands together, their eyes gleaming with greed, and walked towards Lin Yuxin and Ji Qingxue.
Seeing this, Ji Qingxue's hands trembled with nervousness. She was terrified, but after glancing at Lin Yuxin beside her, she gritted her teeth, took a step forward, and stood in front of Lin Yuxin. Her voice trembling, she whispered to Lin Yuxin behind her:
"I'll keep them occupied for a bit, you go ahead!"
She couldn't let anything happen to Lin Yuxin; she was that person's sister, and she had to protect her.
Lin Yuxin was stunned. She looked at the woman in front of her. She was terrified, her hands were trembling, but she still stood in front of her and chose to protect her.
Lin Yuxin felt a warmth in her heart; she had made up her mind about this sister-in-law!
Lin Yuxin looked at the two people who had already walked over, frowned, and said, "If you don't want to say anything, then don't say anything." She raised her hand and clapped in the air.
Xueying and An'er immediately stepped in front of the two thugs and kicked them both away with a single kick each.
Ouch!
The two thugs were convulsing in pain, it was excruciating!
I've really hit a brick wall today!
"Take them away and interrogate them carefully to see if there's a mastermind behind this."
Lin Yuxin walked out expressionlessly and said in a cold voice.
"Yes, Princess!"
An Er knocked the two unconscious, one in each hand, and carried them away.
The snow shadow disappeared again, hiding in the shadows.
