Chapter 66
However, this girl has never cared about these things since she was a child. If he were to say these words out loud, she would definitely point her finger at him and say that he was being pretentious.
...He'd better not get into trouble.
"Tell me about yourself, why are you dressed so mysteriously? Is the Yun family very strict?"
Yunxi immediately looked distressed: "It's not just strict, they won't even let us out the door."
Upon hearing this, a hint of heartache flashed in Duan Huaichuan's eyes.
This girl has been mischievous since she was little, but now... she must be really bored.
The two hadn't seen each other for a long time, and Yunxi had a lot of questions to ask.
How are my parents?
"Are Big White, Little White, and Big Flower alright?"
"Oh, right, did my mother use the fabric I sent back last time? What kind of clothes did she make? Are they pretty?"
"Did they like the snacks I sent back? Brother Huaichuan, did you like them?"
Duan Huaichuan listened quietly, his smile growing ever wider.
He hadn't heard such chattering sounds in a long time, as if a lifetime had passed.
"My teacher and his wife are both well."
"Big White, Little White, and Big Flower are all good too."
"The teacher's wife didn't want to use the cloth, but the snacks were all gone. They loved them, and I loved them too."
"I love it! That's great!" Yunxi's eyes sparkled. "Then I'll go to the market again later and buy some more, then send them back!"
“Okay,” Duan Huaichuan nodded, “I’ll go with you.”
In the short time it took to chat for a few minutes, it was almost time for dinner.
"Brother Huaichuan, there's a restaurant in the capital called Guanghelou. It's the most famous restaurant in the capital. This is a rare opportunity, let's go and try it together!"
"good."
Watching Yunxi turn back to put on her veil, Duan Huaichuan sighed inwardly.
Since it's the most famous restaurant in the capital, given Yunxi's personality, she would definitely go there to eat as soon as she arrives in the capital. Unexpectedly, she hasn't eaten there yet.
I thought this girl would be enjoying herself in the capital, but I never expected her to be so miserable.
Duan Huaichuan watched without showing any emotion as Yunxi put on her veil and went to open the door. His gaze shifted, and unsurprisingly, he saw the bundle she had forgotten.
He's still as forgetful as ever.
He carried the bundle in his hand before following Yunxi out.
The inn is not far from Guanghe Tower, only a 15-minute walk away.
As soon as she entered, Yunxi took off her veil: "Manager, are there any private rooms available?"
The shopkeeper saw that there were only two of them, one dressed as a maid and the other dressed even worse than a maid. Just as he was about to speak, Yunxi spoke first and showed him a twenty-tael silver note.
The innkeeper was already on the tip of his tongue when he abruptly changed his words: "Yes! Yes, yes, yes! Gentlemen, please come upstairs!"
Seeing her spending so lavishly, Duan Huaichuan wanted to remind her not to flaunt her wealth when she was out in public. But as soon as he entered the private room, before he could even say anything, Yunxi placed something in front of him.
He looked down.
A roll of silver notes.
"It's a total of one thousand taels. I'll have them exchange it for fifty-tael notes. You can use these."
Duan Huaichuan pressed his temples: "Xi'er, you still need to protect yourself when you're out and about, and never flaunt your wealth."
“We’re not outside now,” Yunxi said matter-of-factly. “Brother Huaichuan, you should keep it safe so I don’t lose it to someone else once I go out.”
Duan Huaichuan sighed.
This is what true wealth and power look like.
Duan Huaichuan eventually accepted the silver notes.
Yunxi smiled, her eyes crinkling: "That's right, Brother Huaichuan. Now that we're in the capital, you can eat whatever you want and do whatever you want. Bring me along too, so we don't suffer!"
Don't say things like that.
That sounds really ominous.
Yunxi smiled and didn't say anything more.
