The rain has stopped and the clouds have cleared
Yao Susu gradually became overwhelmed, her skin turned pink all over, and she fell asleep crying.
Xu Zekun, however, felt very refreshed, and felt that the depression that had been accumulating in his chest had been relieved a lot.
He got out of bed and took a shower. When he came back, Yao Susu was already fast asleep.
The soft white little face was hidden behind the soft blanket, and the eyelashes cast shadows under the eyes like fluttering butterflies. Xu Zekun bent his fingers as if possessed by a ghost and scratched her face. It was smooth and soft, like tender tofu.
He curled the corners of his mouth and fell asleep beside Yao Susu.
When Yao Susu got up the next day, it was already noon. She rubbed her slightly sore waist and couldn't help cursing Xu Zekun in her heart again.
He looks like a gentleman on the surface, but he is actually a beast! A beast!
Yuping helped Yao Susu take a bath. When she saw the marks on her body, her face turned as red as a boiled shrimp.
This made Yao Susu feel embarrassed, because Yuping was still an unmarried girl.
Both the master and the servant blushed and reluctantly finished the bath.
In order to make her hair dry quickly, Yuping used a soft cloth to absorb the moisture bit by bit. It was a laborious task. As she did it, she said, "Before he left, the master left a banknote, saying that if you feel bored, you can go out for a walk."
Yao Susu was moved when she heard this. She originally thought that since this mission was so urgent, she must keep a low profile and just remain a nobody.
Who knew you could come and go freely and go shopping outside?
Isn’t this much freer than Ningyuan Marquis Mansion!
When she saw the banknote Xu Zekun left for her, she was even more delighted.
Rich men are the most handsome!

Wuzhou is rich, and Yao Susu naturally couldn't sit idle with Xu Zekun's permission.
After having dinner at home, he dressed up and prepared to go out.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I stepped out of the house, I saw a wooden stake.
His face was resolute, and his expression...almost expressionless: "The prince ordered me to ensure the safety of my aunt."
It was Xuanwu, the guard beside Xu Zekun.
Yao Susu: “…” If you want to go, then go ahead. It’s true that if we only take Yuping out, it would be dangerous for the two girls who are unfamiliar with the place.

Wuzhou City was bustling with vendors. Yao Susu felt a sense of freedom she had never experienced before, so she was in high spirits and couldn't stop looking.
She was looking at the scenery, not realizing that she had also become the scenery in the eyes of others.
Beauties have always been scarce, not to mention that Yao Susu is a top beauty. Everyone on the street was attracted by Yao Susu.
She was wearing a plain white Liuxian dress embroidered with magnolia flowers. Her face was as white as jade and her complexion was as red as lotus, like someone walking out of a painting.
Xuanwu fell behind Yao Susu not too far away, feeling that he had taken on a tough job. Master Yao was too beautiful, so naturally some men looked at her with greedy and obsessed eyes, which made him feel uncomfortable. The prince... the prince should be even more unwilling!
But when Master Yao is in danger, he can rush forward to stop it.
But with so many pairs of eyes, he couldn’t stop them all and couldn’t blind them one by one!
He was so anxious that he was sweating, and could only turn his eyes into sharp swords to stab those men with restless eyes!
Fortunately, Yao Susu did not come out aimlessly this time, but had a purpose. When she saw a shop selling rouge and powder on the street, she walked in.
Xuanwu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
When Madam Qin, the owner of Yuyanfang, saw Yao Susu come in, her eyes lit up.
She was in the cosmetics business, so naturally she had come into contact with many women, but she had never seen a lady as beautiful as this one. Although she was not wearing heavy makeup, her facial features were just right, with watery almond eyes, a delicate nose, and small cherry lips.
And this clear and sweet voice: "Shopkeeper, do you have any bath lotion?"
Madam Qin is already middle-aged, but she still has charm. In addition, she is in the cosmetics business, so she naturally does not neglect her appearance.
But in front of this lady, Madam Qin suddenly felt a little ashamed of herself.
She withdrew her gaze and replied, "Yes, yes."
She also had a good eye. With just a glance, she knew that Yao Susu was dressed exceptionally well, so she naturally recommended those made of high-quality materials, which were expensive and few people could afford.
"My lady, you've made the right choice to come to our Yuyanfang. This is a bath lotion with a rose and jasmine scent. It's made with the finest essential oils and contains a variety of precious medicinal herbs. It's the best way to relieve fatigue and soothe your skin, and it can also make your skin fairer and more translucent."
The shopkeeper had a sweet tongue. Yao Susu smiled slightly, picked up the bottle in front of her and smelled it.
She bought the perfume to soothe herself, so naturally she cared most about its smell. As for whether it could make her skin more fragrant and tender, she didn't care, as her skin was already good enough.
It smells good, it seems the shopkeeper's recommendation is not empty talk.
Yao Susu put down the bottle and said, "Then please help me pack these up, boss."
Madam Qin couldn't believe it. Yao Susu bought it without even asking the price!
After Yao Susu left, she was still in a daze. When did such a person appear in Wuzhou City?
After Yao Susu bought the perfume, she went to a bookstore. Xuanwu was holding the things Yao bought. When he saw Yao Susu going to the bookstore, his face froze.
Why did Aunt Yao go to this place full of poor scholars again? It's even worse than the rouge shop just now. At least there are no men!
There are many books in the bookstore. Yao Susu carefully selected a few, including vernacular novels, local travelogues, etc. I don’t know how long I will stay in Wuzhou, so buying a few books can help me relieve boredom.
There was indeed a scholar reading in the bookstore. When he saw Yao Susu come in, he was stunned.
Yao Susu came out with the selected books, and the scholar happened to block her way.
"Please move aside." A beautiful face suddenly appeared before his eyes, and the scholar felt like his heart was about to stop beating.
He didn't move. Yao Susu was a little confused and couldn't help but raise her voice a little: "I want to go over."
"Oh...Oh...Okay." The scholar was in a hurry and quickly moved aside to make room.
A fragrant breeze blew by, and the scholar's heart was still rippling. He turned around and saw a burly man's warning eyes. He even raised the sword in his hand as if inadvertently, which scared the scholar out of his wits. His face, which had been rosy because of the beauty's excitement, turned pale.

After buying a lot of things, and considering that Xu Zekun had given her a lot of banknotes today, Yao Susu finally bought an inkstone from the bookstore owner, intending to give it to Xu Zekun as a way of returning the favor.
When Xu Zekun came back, Yao Susu obediently took out the inkstone.
"I have carefully selected it for a long time. I wonder if you will like it."
Yuping's eyebrows jumped when she heard her aunt's affected tone. This inkstone was clearly recommended by the bookstore owner. She dared to guarantee that her aunt's gaze would not stay on this inkstone for more than a moment!
Xu Zekun fell for it, and although he couldn't see what was so special about the inkstone, he was happy at the end. After taking it, he looked at it carefully and nodded, "It's okay."
