Tana was a little confused by the crying of her tribesmen.
The girl who grew up on the grassland really couldn't understand why just two thin books could make this big and strong man cry.
It's as if he's been physically and mentally tortured...
However, the female leader still remembered what the immortal had said before. Although he did not say it explicitly, she could tell that the immortal had some ideas about the grassland.
In other words, they not only have the opportunity to go back, but also have the opportunity to rebuild their homes after returning.
Just like Dechang County.
Tana did not expect that there would be such a beautiful and prosperous city on the empty grassland, but as long as she was not bullied and had enough food and clothing, she would be thankful to the gods.
To achieve this achievement, all they need to do is work hard and study hard.
Tana didn’t think it was a big deal before. They had gone through so many hardships to come here, so why would it be so difficult to learn something?
But now it seems... I am still too young...
So Tana took the two books and looked at them.
Open.
Hmm, I don’t understand.
The matriarch is a role model for the tribe members and also their pillar of support. Of course, she cannot just write it off with a simple “I can’t do it either.”
So Tana said, "How about this, I'll go to class with you tomorrow."
The tribesmen nodded quickly, their eyes like sheep looking at their leader, as if they were looking at their own confidence.
But the next day, after attending two classes, Tana left the classroom.
After thinking for a long time, the female clan leader put on her uniform work clothes again and went to the textile factory. She threw herself into the production life with unprecedented enthusiasm, participating in every link. She even went to He Yiyi's shop to observe the cloth buying and selling and learn various trading methods.
The whole person is filled with curiosity.
This surprised He Yiyi: "How did you change so quickly?"
It was obvious that when she saw this person before, she just looked at him with her eyes and had no intention of taking action.
Tana, who was clumsily fiddling with the abacus beads, paused for a moment, then slowly raised her head, looking at He Yiyi with a pair of bright eyes and said, "I don't want to lie to the fairy. I must work hard now."
He Yiyi sighed with emotion: "I heard Yan Tao say that you are a very responsible tribe leader. It sounds like you have really sacrificed a lot for your people and the future of the entire tribe, Tana."
Unexpectedly, Tana hesitated for a moment and then shook her head, muttering, "It's not just for the sake of the tribe."
He Yiyi was quite curious: "Oh? Then what's the reason?"
As a result, Tana's cheeks turned red before she could say anything.
The always proud and dashing female leader now looked particularly embarrassed and whispered, "I asked Master Yan, and she said that if I don't do this, I have to go to school with the others and study Chinese and math well." At this point, Tana shuddered unconsciously and muttered to herself, "Math is so scary, so scary! I'd rather fight wolves."
"……so?"
"I don't want to go to school. It's too difficult. I don't want to go."
He Yiyi: ...
Seeing that the fairy in front of her was silent, Tana realized that she had said something wrong and hurried to make amends: "It's better not to tell this to the master."
He Yiyi still said nothing, but stretched out her hand and gently pointed behind her.
Tana turned around in confusion, and then saw Yan Tao who was leaning against the door and smiling at her.
Forehead……
The scene was a little awkward.
Just when He Yiyi was thinking about whether she should explain to this person the necessity of compulsory education, she heard the sound of a gong outside and an official shouting, "Clear the way! Clear the way!"
Tana quickly changed the subject: "What's going on outside?"
He had been in Dechang County for some time, and when he heard the sound, he knew it was the government office cleaning the streets, so he said, "Someone is coming again."
Tana was curious: "Who is it?"
This time it was Yan Tao who spoke: "I came here just to tell you that the eldest princess has entered the city."
Now, Tana had no other emotions.
Studying, building, and textile factories are all things for the future.
The most important thing for her now is to return to the grassland.
What determines whether she can return to her home is not Dechang County or Langyun, but the nominal owner of that place, Princess Kong Shu of Zhou.
Tana took a few quick steps to the door, tiptoeing to see the lord she had never met before.
But the Princess of Zhou, who was escorted into the city by a crowd of people, obviously did not notice her.
Kong Shu was wearing a veil and sitting upright in the carriage with a very calm expression, taking a nap with her eyes closed.
Sitting opposite was Princess Kong Lingyun.
Originally, she was just going to greet her at the city gate, thinking that after picking up her aunt, they would go together to stay at the place arranged by County Magistrate Yue.
Unexpectedly, Kong Shu did not follow the routine, but went to the market in Dechang County.
Kong Lingyun also got on the carriage.
Normally, the little princess was the most lively and talkative. She never knew the word "fear" even in front of King Zhou. She even dared to snatch things from King Zhou. It can be said that she was very unscrupulous because of her father's favor.
But at this moment she was sitting upright, her back very straight.
The reason was simple: the eldest princess in front of her was so famous that Kong Lingyun both respected and feared her.
Looking around the world, there is probably no other princess as powerful as her.
He has abilities, military achievements, and fiefdoms.
The first marriage seemed to be a failure, and the prince consort even became the leader of a rebel army, but the eldest princess still divorced him smoothly.
The way to divorce was to lead troops to quell the rebellion and personally chop off her ex-husband's head.
There is no need to even write a divorce agreement, no need to go through any formalities, just a physical divorce.
Although his face was injured on the battlefield, when the Zhou people mentioned this incident, they did not feel sorry for him, but instead expressed admiration for him.
Nowadays, women in Zhou can live more comfortably than those in other countries. They can even open shops outside or set up their own households. This is actually inseparable from the outstanding deeds of the eldest princess.
The Princess's Mansion has been preserved in the capital, waiting for her to return and live there.
However, Kong Shu rarely went back. She would only go to the capital during the Chinese New Year and stay in her fiefdom at other times.
This also led to Kong Lingyun being unfamiliar with her legendary aunt, which inevitably made her feel a little restrained.
It was Kong Shu who spoke first: "How is Lingyun these days?"
Kong Lingyun hurriedly said, "Thank you for your concern, aunt. I'm fine."
Kong Shu opened her eyes slightly, looked her up and down, then nodded and said, "It seems like you are doing well."
The little princess's smile suddenly appeared.
Kong Shu added, "She looks a little plumper than during the Chinese New Year."
The little princess' smile gradually disappeared.
She puffed out her cheeks and touched her waist somewhat unconvincedly, trying to say that she was not fat.
As a result, I felt a piece of soft flesh.
Princess Lingyun cleverly skipped the topic and asked, "Why did Auntie suddenly come to Dechang County this time? Could it be that she's here to ask A-Zhang and me to go back?"
The princess didn't answer directly, but instead asked, "What's so good about this place that you wouldn't even go back to the palace?"
Kong Lingyun wanted to say that she actually wanted to go back.
In this world, some people have ideals and hope to work hard, but some people just want to enjoy life. The little princess belongs to the latter.
No matter how good Dechang County is, in her heart, she still prefers the fine clothes and delicious food in the capital.
But Gongzi Zhang is now immersed in the machinery factory, either tinkering with bicycles or water wheels. Recently, he has also become obsessed with a thing called a steam car, which he keeps rumbling around all day long, with no intention of leaving at all.
As the elder sister, Kong Lingyun couldn't bear to leave him here alone. She was protecting her brother in her heart, so she said vaguely, "It's quite interesting here, and there are immortals here. Ah Zhang and I want to see more and learn more."
Kong Shu said nothing, and didn't even bother to lift the curtain to look outside.
Princess Lingyun took out the food box she had prepared earlier, opened it, and took out the snacks inside: "Aunt, please try it."
Kong Shu didn't reach out, but shook her head gently: "I'm not hungry."
“Eat it as a snack.”
“I don’t eat snacks.”
When the little princess heard this, her first reaction was, I don’t believe it, no one doesn’t like snacks!
Kong Shu didn't look at her, and continued calmly: "As long as you have enough food and clothing, it's fine. It's all about filling your stomach, there's no difference."
This obviously conflicts greatly with the little princess who loves to eat, drink and have fun.
So she couldn't help but whispered, "Aunt doesn't like food and clothes, so where are the gold and jade jewelry?"
Kong Shu shook her head gently: "No need, it's heavy and tiring, a jade hairpin will be enough."
Kong Lingyun looked at the other person's plain jade hairpin and subconsciously touched the gold hairpin on her head.
Before he could say anything, he heard the eldest princess say calmly, "The token of love your uncle gave you is enough."
Kong Lingyun: ...
I silently put my hand down, feeling a little choked for some reason.
But she still didn't give up: "Then doesn't my aunt have anything she likes?"
Kong Shu thought for a moment and said, "Yes, there is."
"What is it?"
"Go into battle and kill the enemy."
…???
After a moment's silence, the little princess said dryly, "Aunt's hobby is quite unique."
At this moment, the carriage suddenly stopped.
Kong Lingyun lifted the curtain and looked outside, and found that this was neither the county magistrate's office nor the place where she was staying, but in front of a store.
There are four words on the plaque, "Miracle Yiyi".
Princess Lingyun exclaimed softly: "Hey, I remember this place sells clothes."
Kong Shu said softly, "When I entered the city, someone told me that the clan leaders from the grasslands often appear here."
The little princess was curious: "What does my aunt want her to do?"
The mention of this matter caused the princess, who had just been very reserved with her words, to burst into conversation. "The Barbarian Kingdom is in turmoil, and the grasslands are in chaos. I have to find someone who knows the inside story to question. Lingyun, you know that my aunt's territory may seem large, but in fact, large areas are not under my jurisdiction, and the barbarians have the upper hand. Before, to avoid disputes, I kept silent. Now, times have changed, and the Barbarian Kingdom has begun to fight each other again. It is indeed a good time to restore order. Those grassland people must be met, and the sooner the better, so as not to delay the battle."
"Then why didn't Auntie let them go, but came here in person?"
"I also want to take a look at the various factories in Dechang County. I heard that they can make cold-resistant clothes here and forge ironware. If we really fight the barbarians, I'm afraid we'll need Dechang County's help."
Having said that, Kong Shu has already made her purpose clear.
Looking for people or things, there is only one purpose.
Drive out the barbarians and recover the lost territories.
Kong Lingyun was a princess after all, and she had received a good basic education, so she quickly understood.
But she also thought of another point: "So, Auntie didn't come here this time to ask Zhang and me to return to the palace?"
Kong Shu looked away and said softly, "Of course, I came to see you guys by the way."
Kong Lingyun: ...
Okay.
I thought he came for me... Looks like I was overthinking it.
After getting off the car, the two walked into the store.
Tana, who had been standing at the door staring eagerly, had never seen them before, so she hesitated and didn't dare to go forward.
Kong Shu didn't mean to beat around the bush and asked directly, "Are you from the grassland?"
Tana nodded: "Yes."
"Are they Zhou people or barbarians?"
"Our clan has been Zhou people for generations."
"Well, follow me."
Tana was stunned.
Then I heard Yan Tao beside me remind me: "This must be the eldest princess, go quickly."
Tana immediately came to her senses, a blush of excitement appeared on her face, and she strode to catch up with the eldest princess and went to a secluded place to talk.
But Kong Lingyun did not follow.
After all, fighting is not her hobby.
Compared to those, she prefers powder, hairpins and jewelry, and of course, beautiful clothes.
So the little princess started strolling around the store.
The biggest difference between He Yiyi's clothing store and other stores is that she asks people to display all the finished clothes and provide a variety of sizes for selection.
This kind of ready-made clothing is relatively cheap and more suitable for ordinary people.
But it didn't quite catch Kong Lingyun's eye.
It’s true that cotton is new, soft and breathable, but its benefits are only compared to cotton.
For Princess Lingyun, who has been living in luxury since childhood, the attraction is not that great.
So she walked around, but didn't see anything she liked, so she didn't want to look anymore.
But when she turned around, she saw He Yiyi standing behind her, looking at her with a smile.
Kong Lingyun also smiled and greeted: "Fairy, long time no see."
He Yiyi pointed at the clothes and asked, "Do you like any of these?"
Kong Lingyun didn't know this was He Yiyi's business, so she told him the truth: "The lining and small clothes are okay, but the others are not so attractive."
After hearing this, He Yiyi's expression remained unchanged, she just winked silently at the person beside her.
Soon, a beautiful woman came forward with graceful steps.
She was wearing a bun that had never been seen in the Zhou Dynasty, and she swore that the style of hairpins and rings was also unique and had never been seen here.
But the most eye-catching thing is the long skirt she is wearing.
She was wearing a fairy dress with cloud patterns, and she looked ethereal and graceful as she walked, instantly attracting all the attention of Princess Lingyun.
He Yiyi quietly stepped aside.
Seeing this, Yan Tao curiously approached her and asked, "Who is this?"
"I recruited them from Dechang County. Our professional mission is to make clothes and promote clothing styles, so we have to be down-to-earth. So I recruited some smart and articulate shopping guides."
"...Indigenous people?"
"Yes, they are indigenous people, but they have been trained and have excellent business skills."
Yan Tao was a little confused and wanted to ask what business ability was.
But soon, the female salesperson smiled and said, "Your Highness, these are ready-made clothes. They are made of cheap materials and have crude designs. They are designed to benefit the people, but I'm afraid they are not worthy of Your Highness's status. If Your Highness likes them, we can tailor them to your measurements."
"What new styles do you have?"
"Whatever the princess wants, she has it. There are many styles and everything you need."
As he spoke, the shopping guide took out a picture album and gave it to her.
Yan Tao can also be seen from this angle.
As a result, I saw a complete collection of world clothing, including classical, Western, and various styles.
And that price...
The zero at the end looks outrageous!
Yan Tao really wanted to say, even if the princess came, it would be an impossible task to sell clothes at this price, right?
Before she could ask, the female salesperson next to Kong Lingyun said in a gentle voice, "Your Highness, everything in the catalog can be purchased individually or as a set. If you purchase a certain amount, you can participate in a lucky draw, get discounts, and get a credit card for even better deals."
Yan Tao: ...
At this moment, she suddenly understood.
No wonder this store is named a dress-up game.
Miracle Yiyi.
I thought it was just a joke before, but now I understand...
It turns out to be a realistic style!
