"Ji Nianqin! What on earth has possessed you? I'm here to help you."
"Prince, don't think I don't know what you're thinking. You killed the Queen, and now you want to kill me? But do you know that there are many people waiting for your head? So, it's best to stay away from me, the farther the better."
"Ji Nianqin, why are you going back to sell it?"
"I'm a serious hairpin seller. How can I give up my dream of wearing hairpins just because I met an old rogue? Besides, there are still many people in the hairpin factory who are waiting for my salary. Otherwise, how will they go home for the New Year?"
"I don't need your little money to go home for the New Year."
"How do you know? Who doesn't save some money to cross the river? What if something happens? My parents are getting older. Do you think I'm right?"
"Although some of these honest words may be unpleasant to the ear, they are mostly true, except for the part about me."
"Prince, I knew you were going to quibble, but I don't care at all. You can do whatever you want. The key is that I also have the right not to listen."
"Ji Nianqin, don't be so stubborn. It's so late, and you're still staying outside. How can you be a good person?"
"Aren't those grandpa and grandma still outside? They're square dancing. That old man just now was an exception. He made me so angry. He really started off badly."
"Hahaha, this is really hilarious. Do you dare to let me watch next to you to see if there are any customers?"
"Get out of here right now! I just escaped from the tiger's den and fell into your hands again. I don't need that. I'm fine. I know what I should do and what I shouldn't do. Unlike you, you even harmed your own mother just for that little bit of power. You are worse than an animal."
"What did you say? Ji Nianqin."
"Why are you glaring at me? I can guess with my toes that you're definitely planning on dragging me out and beheading me or something like that. My head is annoying, but some people are rare, like that old man just now, so I'm still quite useful."
"Ji Nianqin, you really don't know how to write the word shame."
"Yes, although I didn't know how to write, that was in the past. Now I have learned a lot of cultural knowledge. I can write any character, especially one character."
"What?"
"roll!!"
"Ji Nianqin, stop right there."
"I don't want to, but you asked me that."
"Ji Nianqin, don't go to the square anymore. I told you, why didn't you listen? I have something to do and I have to leave first. I can't be by your side to protect you, so you should go back to school first."
"I don't have a school anymore. I was expelled. To be exact, I'm all alone. But, it's not a bad thing for me to be alone outside."
"Selling hairpins..."
"What are you selling in this big black bag?"
"This is a hairpin. The factory closed down, and this is all I have. Now all the workers in the factory have found better jobs, but some of them are still owed wages. So I wanted to use this to pay off the debt, but they didn't want it. So I sold it."
"How much is one?"
Ji Nianqin suddenly had an idea and answered.
"For 10 yuan, I can also get a free hairpin."
"Very good, very good, my dear. Come quickly and look at this. It's a hairpin."
"It's so beautiful, can you give me a free hairpin?"
