Xiao Xu raised her eyebrows, and her thick eyebrows added a bit of strange cuteness. The students looking at her were slightly stunned.
Student: "This young master said that you know whether the Grand Master has ever opened a shrine... Maybe."
Xiao's heart tightened.
The student asked, "Could it be that you are a servant of the Imperial Master's Mansion? I heard that people with unique looks would be favored by the Imperial Master and taken in as servants."
“…”
The scene suddenly fell silent. The stall owner was still shouting at first, but after hearing what the student said, he completely shut his mouth, and his eyes became a little more trembling.
If it were any other time, Xiao Xu probably wouldn't want to intervene, but today her mood went from good to bad, and this little stall owner bumped into her again, so she wanted to intervene.
"I work in the Imperial Master's Mansion, but I'm not a servant."
If not a servant, what is it?!
The student and the stall owner's expressions changed slightly, and they wanted to ask something.
Xiao Yan gave the answer: "The servants in the Imperial Master's Mansion are illiterate. The Imperial Master took pity on them and hired a teacher to teach them how to read and write. That teacher is me."
She is becoming more and more adept at lying.
The stall owner was so frightened that his face turned pale. He immediately fell to his knees and said, "I am blind. I am blind. Please don't bother with me. I won't dare to do that again."
He spoke very sincerely, with red eyes, as if he would cry out loud in the next second.
Xiao Yan: "This kind of thing is only worth a few coins at most. You're selling it for two taels of silver, which is equivalent to two thousand coins. Don't you think the price is too high?"
The stall owner was trembling and stuttering, "Hey, these people in the capital are all from wealthy families. Isn't it normal to buy things for one or two taels of silver? There are even talismans that sell for more than ten taels of silver."
Hearing this, Xiao Yu felt a headache. She rubbed her head and waved her hand, "You can continue to sell, but if I find out you sell for more than twenty coins, you will spend the rest of your life in jail."
"Thank you...thank you, sir!"
"Oh yeah, how long did you do it?"
The stall owner said without hesitation: "I just set it up this morning... However, I only sold a few, not many, and I've already spent the money I earned."
Did you spend the money?
So quickly, afraid that you won’t be able to spend it after being discovered as a fraud, so you spend it quickly?
Xiao Xu glanced at the other person a few times and asked slowly, "Only this once. Remember."
The stall owner said: "Okay, okay, sir!"
After Xiao Xu gave the instructions, he slowly continued his shopping.
Since the handsome student found out that he had been deceived, he has been following Xiao Yu and never left. When he was chased away, he said with eager eyes:
"I came out secretly without any guards. You are someone invited by the Imperial Master's Mansion, so you should be very powerful. Nothing will happen if I follow you. Don't worry, I will only follow you for the whole morning."
Xiao Yan: "..."
There are all kinds of weird things these days, she should be used to it.
"Since you are in the Imperial Master's Residence, you should have talked with the Imperial Master. Is the Imperial Master a very gentle and kind person?"
The student's delicate eyebrows were raised. In the sunlight, his delicate facial features, although not particularly handsome, were very distinctive, like a sunny boy with a bright smile.
This kind of person's identity should not be simple.
Xiao Xu looked around and saw several figures hiding in the crowd, casting inquiring glances at her from time to time.
It is true.
"What's your name? Honestly, your eyes look a bit like the Imperial Master's. They're like a piece of amber, very beautiful."
