Chapter 153: Going to Yongzhou, I am afraid that disaster is about to happen
If you hesitate, you will miss it. Once you miss it, it is no longer yours.
Nan Yan was a little dazed when she heard these words, especially when she looked at his gentle and bright eyes, which seemed to be deeply touched. For a moment, she didn't know whether to refuse or accept.
The stall owner immediately said, "Yes, this gentleman is right."
“…”
"Girl, buy it. People are willing to lend you money."
“…”
"In this world, who is willing to lend money to others? Don't let others down!"
Nan Yan was amused by the stall owner's attentiveness. Seeing that Jian Ruocheng had already taken out the money, she sighed and said softly, "Well, I'll lend you ten cents first. I'll definitely return it to you when I get back."
Jian Ruocheng smiled and said nothing, then gave the money to the stall owner.
The bright red bracelet was worn on Nanyan's slender, snow-white wrist. Just as the boss said, the two complemented each other, the wrist looked whiter and the bracelet looked redder, and it looked particularly beautiful.
Jian Ruocheng took a look at it and said, "It looks good."
Nan Yan blushed unconsciously. In fact, it was natural for girls to like this kind of thing, but being looked at like this was another matter. She quickly lowered her hands and covered the bracelet with her sleeves.
The stall owner, having secured the deal, became more talkative, saying, "You two don't sound like you're from here. Are you from out of town?"
Jian Ruocheng smiled and said, "Yes, we are from Yangzhou."
"Are you here to do business?"
"Come to visit relatives."
"So that's how it is. As expected, people from big cities have different demeanors from here. We can't produce anyone as fair and beautiful as you here."
Nan Yan laughed unhappily and said, "Boss, the deal has already been done. Even if you praise me again, I won't buy your stuff anymore."
"Hey, girl, the business is done, and the friendship is even stronger."
“…”
"Besides, I'm just reminding you to just hang out here, but don't go to Yongzhou."
“…”
“…”
Nan Yan and Jian Ruocheng looked at each other.
They were so busy buying things that they almost forgot the purpose of Zhu Feng asking them to come out for "strolling". But after hearing what the stall owner said, both of them took it to heart.
Nan Yan immediately asked, "Why?"
Jian Ruocheng asked, "Is it because there just was a war over there?"
"War? If that's what you call a war," the stall owner snorted coldly, then said, "I'm worried that if you, a beautiful girl like you, go to Yongzhou, you might be in big trouble."
Nan Yan frowned: "What do you mean?"
"You don't know, there's a wicked man in Yongzhou City. If he sees a woman with even a little bit of beauty, no matter if she's an unmarried young lady or a married young wife, as long as he takes a fancy to her, he will snatch her away. A girl like you, I'm afraid you'll be snatched away as soon as you enter Yongzhou."
Nan Yan opened her eyes wide: "Is there such a thing? Doesn't the government care?"
"The government? The government can't control that person."
Jian Ruocheng hurriedly asked, "Who is that evil person you're talking about?"
The stall owner looked around and whispered, "That villain is none other than the current prince, Prince Jing's brother-in-law, Tong Jie."
“Tong Jie…?”
They both silently repeated the name.
Nan Yan was still a little puzzled when Jian Ruocheng said, "But I heard that Princess Jing's surname is Zhao, isn't it?"
The stall owner said, "This Tong Jie is the brother of Prince Jing's concubine, Madam Tong, not the brother of Prince Jing's wife."
