Chapter 889: Pushing the Limits
“It’s obvious from the first glance that the young lady is a connoisseur of goods.
These storybooks were all written by Mr. Miaobi and are the best-selling books in our store.
It is said that it is very well written and the content is absolutely wonderful!
Many people come to buy every day, and some even make reservations a few days in advance.
To be honest, we only have a few of these books in stock in our store now.
Once they are sold out, they are gone. You will have to wait for several days to restock them. If you can buy them now, you will make a profit!"
Being praised like this in person, Concubine Li's face couldn't help but turn red again.
She couldn't help but reply, "It's not that good."
The bookstore owner thought she was questioning the content of the books, and immediately shouted, "It's really that good! If you don't believe me, you can open it now and take a look. I guarantee that you won't want to put it down after you read it!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a young man walked in.
The young man didn't look at anything else, but directly took away all the storybooks written by Concubine Li, very generously.
"I want all of these!"
The bookstore owner saw this and immediately responded, "Okay, I'll pack it for you right away."
He pulled out two pieces of yellow oil paper from under the cabinet and wrapped the script neatly while speaking to Concubine Li.
"Look, I told you that these books are very popular and that many people like them, but you didn't believe me. Now you can't buy them even if you want to."
The young man who was standing nearby waiting to get the book turned to look at Concubine Li when he heard this.
When he saw that the other person was a young and beautiful lady, he was slightly stunned at first, and then he spoke with great sincerity.
“The stories written by Mr. Miaobi are all very interesting!
I have read every story he has written, including his latest serialized story in Shengjing Daily, which I am also following.
I read each chapter many times.
I really like the stories he describes. He is the most talented storyteller I have ever met!
If you like reading storybooks, you can take a look at the ones he wrote. I guarantee you will like him!"
This person praised Li Fei even more than the bookstore owner. It was obvious that he was a die-hard fan of Li Fei.
Princess Li felt very embarrassed, but couldn't help asking.
"I saw it says 'Miaobi' on the cover, why do you all call her Mr. Miaobi?"
What she really wanted to ask was, how could these people determine that Miaobi was a man? What if he was a woman?
Hearing this, the young man said as a matter of course.
"Mr. is a respectful title. Mr. Miaobi is a man of extraordinary talent and deserves respect."
Princess Li: "I thought sir was a respectful title only for men."
The young man: "Not necessarily. We once hired a female teacher to teach the girls how to read and write. We all respect that female teacher. Sir is just a respectful title, not related to gender."
Hearing this, Concubine Li couldn't help but look at him a few more times and found that this young man looked to be only seventeen or eighteen years old.
Not only was he well-spoken, he was also quite handsome, and with his elegant dress, one could tell at a glance that he came from a noble family.
When the young man saw her looking at him, he took the initiative to introduce himself.
"My surname is Heng, and my given name is Jin."
The bookstore owner has already packed the books.
He handed the book to Hengjin and took the money from him.
Both parties have settled the payment and goods.
Heng Jin pulled out a piece of soft silk from his sleeve and wrapped the already wrapped books again.
He walked away happily, carrying the books in his pockets as if they were great treasures.
Princess Li looked at his receding back with mixed feelings.
She thought that the people who would like the storybooks she wrote would be young and ignorant girls, but she didn't expect that there were actually men who liked to read her storybooks.
She didn't know why, but she felt weird.
Xiao Xixi stood quietly by and watched the show.
Just now when Concubine Li was talking to Heng Jin, Xiao Xixi discovered that a red line faintly appeared between the two of them.
It's just that the line is very vague and not clear.
This only shows that Concubine Li and Heng Jin have a certain fate, but whether this fate can bear fruit in the end depends on themselves.
Xiao Xixi looked at the bookstore owner and asked casually.
"Does the gentleman just now come here often to buy books?"
There were no other customers in the bookstore at the time, and the owner was free, so he answered casually.
"You mean Master Heng?
He does come here often to buy books.
In the past, he bought all kinds of books, including astronomy, geography, history and storybooks. As long as he was interested in it, he would buy it all.
Anyway, the Heng family has plenty of money.
But ever since he became fascinated by Mr. Miaobi's storybooks, he has specialized in selling Mr. Miaobi's storybooks.
And every time I buy as much as I can without any hesitation."
Xiao Xixi was puzzled: "Why did he buy so many? Wouldn't one copy of the same book be enough?"
The boss smiled and said, "I asked him this question before, and he said that he liked them, so he wanted to buy more to keep. Even if he didn't look at them, he felt happy just by looking at them."
Xiao Xixi also laughed: "This person is quite interesting."
Princess Li said, "Let's go."
Xiao Xixi waved to the boss and walked out of the bookstore with Li Fei.
The two got into the carriage.
Xiao Xixi bumped into Concubine Li's arm and said with a smile.
"That person just now is a fan of your book!"
Princess Li was puzzled: "What is a book fan?"
"They are the kind of people who really like your books and consider you an idol. An idol is someone who is admired and worshipped."
Concubine Li felt somewhat proud, but she still snorted softly.
"What is there about me that is worthy of his admiration and worship?"
Xiao Xixi held her chin with one hand: "Maybe it's because the storybook you wrote really touched him."
When Princess Li wrote storybooks in the past, she wrote whatever came to her mind. The reason why she was liked by so many people was basically due to her talent.
She didn't expect that her own storybook could be so sincerely admired by others.
While she was surprised and excited, she couldn't help but reflect on herself.
Since her works can have such a significant impact on people, shouldn't she be more cautious when writing storybooks in the future?
She felt that there should be less plots like the kind that would make people have bad thoughts.
People should be responsible for their own words and deeds, and the same goes for authors.
Seeing that Concubine Li was lost in thought, Xiao Xixi did not disturb her.
The carriage returned to the palace safely.
After getting off the car, Concubine Li turned around and said to the Imperial Concubine.
"My family has agreed to allow me to leave the palace and start a new life."
Xiao Xixi: "Well, I will tell the emperor about this."
Princess Li said seriously, "Thank you."
This time her voice was neither too loud nor too soft, and Xiao Xixi could hear it clearly.
Xiao Xixi raised her eyebrows: "I don't accept verbal thanks. If you really want to thank me, then ask your family to send another ten kilograms, no, twenty kilograms of stewed dishes to the palace. It would be best if you could also send your family's chef who makes stewed dishes to me."
Princess Li gritted her teeth: "One should not be too pushy."
Xiao Xixi: "What a coincidence. I am best at taking advantage of others."
Princess Li: "..."
She just said thank you!
…
Good morning everyone!
My knees are almost broken from kneeling just to beg for monthly votes.
嘤嘤嘤, can you give me a monthly ticket~
