Chapter 5 : 購物
[Shopping]
Hearing the words of her companion, Tang Shi Man at first did not care. Just in the spirit of ‘watching jokes mentality’ and following it. Tang Shi Man wants to see how the person who married a sick ghost is doing now. But what she didn’t expect was that after going in, she got herself stimulated instead.
Just seeing Tang Xiaobao, the things he casually looked at, he did not even look at it but it was wrapped up. The boss beside him smiled like a flower, constantly courteous there.
Tang Xiaobao looked at the things that were constantly being packaged up by Cai Yue’s command, his heart was a little panicked, once he came out to buy so many things, he always felt bad. So he looked at Cai Yue who was directing the boss to pack up the things and said, “Alright, I don’t need that many things.”
Cai Yue looked at the stunned Tang Xiaobao, and replied in a very natural and respectful tone, “Young Madam, do you think these aren’t nice?”
Looking at those jade pendants and decorations that didn’t look like ordinary items, and then looking at the price, against his will, he couldn’t even say that they didn’t look good even if he wanted to say it. He could only nod his head helplessly and looked at Cai Yue with a little apprehension in his tone, “I don’t use these things, so what’s the point of buying so many of them? Don’t buy it anymore.”
“Young Madam, since the young master has asked the butler to bring you the money, then buy whatever you like, no need to worry.” Cai Yue said with an expressionless face, and then said in a very natural tone: “Young Madam, you may not know that the value of the things here is even more than a jade pendant in this house, and it’s really not a precious thing.”
Hearing Cai Yue’s words, the boss’s face was a little unsightly, but due to the fact that the person in front of him might be his biggest employer, he didn’t open his mouth.
Hearing Cai Yue’s words, Tang Xiaobao was still a bit uneasy, he had just come to this house, he was considered penniless, even if he didn’t know any more about the world, he still knew that it was not his turn to squander the money in this house. Just look at Csi Yue’s skilled posture, he is afraid that usually the person who has not done this kind of help sweeps things. Looking at the things still packing, Tang Xiaobao anxious, his eyes red, looking at Cai Yue firmly said: “I do not need that many things, pick two that are good. You don’t need to pack up the rest.”
Cai Yue looked at Tang Xiaobao’s eyes and quickly lowered her head, then very obediently said, “Yes, listen to Young Madam.”
After saying that, she followed Tang Xiaobao’s orders, wrapping up the things he liked and returning the rest.
Waiting for the two to leave, Tang Shiman only snorted in the back. She couldn’t see, this younger little brother of hers, even if married, is still a fool. According to the scene just now, it is clear that the maid wants to make things difficult for their master, and finally screwed up so she obeyed.
“Shi Man, this younger brother of yours looks like he married into a good family, so generous.” The female companion looked at the person who had returned some of the jewellery, but bought the rest of the still expensive jewellery without batting an eyelid, and her heart sank a little. Usually she would need to ask her family for a long time if she wanted something like this, but when it came to other people, it was like buying cabbages,
Hearing her female companion’s words, the corner of Tang Shi Man’s mouth hooked up in an ironic smile, which quickly subsided, reverting to her usual gentle and gentle appearance, softly saying, “I heard that my brother-in-law is not in good health, but I didn’t realise that he is the one who cherishes his Fu Lang.”
Hearing Tang Shi Man’s words, her female companion’s jealousy of Tang Xiaobao suddenly dissipated, and there was even a bit of hidden sympathy. When the Ji family’s young master came here, who here doesn’t know, who doesn’t tell, but after seeing the Ji family’s son’s appearance, and also requesting that the other party can’t be born in a small family. Except for the black hearted [ruthless and lacking in conscience] people who lack money’s mother and father, who would be willing to send their own innocent children to be widowed? Even if you are not a widow, facing such a horrible look, the nightmares in your sleep probably will not be less.
Noticing the change in her female companion’s expression, Tang Shi Man smiled, looking at her cheap brother’s figure, her smile grew brighter and brighter. To send such a person to the Ji family as a wife, and they received a generous gift, this deal is very cost-effective. Thinking like this, it was time to go back and ask her own mother to prepare a few more sets of new clothes for herself.
By the time she returned to the Ji family, Tang Xiaobao was practically paralysed. Today, because of buying clothes, constantly trying on clothes, and constantly arguing with Cai Yue about not needing so many, it felt like a war.
When I returned to my own room, I saw Ji Ling, who didn’t seem to go out all day, sitting there with a bowl of black medicine in his hand, looking like he had already drunk half of it, and still had half of it left to wait for a breath of air before he drank it again.
From a long way away, you can smell the strong bitter flavour, Tang Xiaobao watched Ji Ling drink it without changing his face, without any hesitation at all, and could not help but have some admiration.
“Did you have fun today?” When he finished drinking the medicine, he cleaned his hands with the help of his subordinates and looked at Tang Xiaobao and asked.
Upon hearing his words, Tang Xiaobao was entangled for a while, but still honestly shook his head.
Seeing Tang Xiaobao’s action, the corner of Ji Ling’s mouth lifted up a small arc, his voice was still very cold, only now there was an extra hint of coldness, “Didn’t you buy a lot of things today? Is it because you bought less, so you’re not happy?”
Hearing Ji Ling’s words, Tang Xiaobao stood there and somehow a bit unable to stand, he did not hear the meaning of Ji Ling’s words, just thought he was simply asking himself. Originally, he walked for a day and at this time, he felt very tired, Tang Xiaobao also did not think that much, once his buttock sat down, and then looked at the Ji Ling, so he involuntarily complained: “In fact, I don’t need that much clothes, jewellery and so on, why must I buy, why must I buy? Why do I have to buy it? After I buy it, I don’t use it, it’s a waste of money.”
Not expecting Tang Xiaobao to answer in this way, Ji Ling was a bit surprised and amused, the warmth in his tone came back, even with a bit of temptation, “Don’t you think the more clothes and so on, the better?”
Hearing Ji Ling’s words, Tang Xiaobao looked at his expression with some surprise, and a bit of incredulity, and said incredulously, “I only need a few clothes, otherwise washing clothes is a waste of water ah.”
Seeing Tang Xiaobao say this, Ji Ling was a bit unsure of his husband’s brain circuits. Could it be that because he had a miserable life in his mother’s house, he even had to save the water for washing clothes?
Tang Xiaobao does not care what he is thinking. At this time, his brain is so tired that there is only a pool of paste. The instinctive reaction is that when he washed the clothes, he saved water ah, how can you save water by buying so many clothes? Save a drop of water, environmental protection for you and me. Tang Xiaobao used to be a firm environment activist and tried his best to live a low-carbon life within his own scope.
Originally still thinking about why Tang Xiaobao would have such an idea, the corner of his eyes saw the person who looked tired and about to fall asleep. Unable to help laughing, he remained silent then he said, “Since you’re tired, just wash up and go to sleep, ba.”
Originally, Tang Xiaobao’s head was a little bit full, but after hearing Ji Ling’s words, he quickly went to wash up and then went to bed. Those who had long been used to sleeping in the same bed for the past few days quickly fell asleep lying beside Ji Ling.
