Chapter 27 Nan Shi Fang Trace
In the south of Jinghua City, two young men who looked like nobles stood out among the crowd.
The more noble of the two, the handsome young man wearing a jade belt, did not have any of the high-spiritedness of a young man at the moment. He was looking all the way. Passers-by could hear his sighs.
"Brother Jingmo! Didn't you say that you grew up at the foot of the Imperial City and were extremely familiar with every plant and tree in Jinghua City? Didn't you say that you even know which street a mouse crossing the street comes from? Why are we all wandering around like this?
It’s been a long time, but the person still hasn’t been found?”
Lu Chengfeng sat down at a roadside tea stall, looked at the sky and sighed.
"Perhaps that person is in the dimly lit place?" Wu Jingmo joked, while also reciting a famous line from "Riding the Wind on the Road".
"Hey! Could it be that the woman really descended to earth that day? After thinking about it, I don't have the slightest clue!" Lu Chengfeng let out a big sigh.
Ever since we parted ways in Jiuxianju that day, it seemed as if her soul had gone with that woman. One day was like three autumns apart, and she was struck by lovesickness. "My clothes are getting wider and wider, but I will never regret it. I feel haggard because of Yi!"
"Wonderful! After Brother Chengfeng became lovesick, he came up with so many wonderful words!" Wu Jingmo joked, but his eyes were full of stars. In the 21st century, he should be able to be the leader of Lu Chengfeng's fan club
!
"Back to business! I heard you tell me, the busiest place in the south of the city is called Nanshi Street?" Lu Chengfeng habitually touched his right eyebrow with a melancholy look on his face.
"Yes! But most of the children of aristocratic families and official families in Jinghua City are concentrated in the east and west. The west city is where the princes and nobles gather, and the ten squares in the east city are the places favored by the new rich and powerful in the court. I have never heard of any of them.
The big families live in the south of the city? Nanshi Street area, there are quite a few businessmen and businessmen!"
Wu Jingmo said categorically.
As soon as these words came out, Lu Chengfeng's eyes shone, and he looked at Wu Jingmo with great expectation, and asked, "Brother Jingmo, is there any wealthy family on Nanshi Street who comes from a wealthy businessman?"
"If you put it that way, there are quite a few on Nanshi Street. Do you mean that woman is the daughter of a businessman? I think she has a refined and refined temperament, and is extraordinary. She definitely doesn't look like a businessman's child!" Wu Jingmo asserted
.
"No, no! Brother Jingmo is biased against businessmen's children! Not all businessmen's children smell like copper since childhood. Businessmen can also be talented in learning and make a fortune, and they can also have the ambition to serve the country.
!Brother Jingmo, do you still remember?
What is the debate topic in Jiuxianju that day?"
An idea flashed in Lu Chengfeng's eyes, and he instantly felt that he had a plan in mind.
"The topic of the discussion that day seemed to be, is it appropriate to relax the movement restrictions on merchants?" Wu Jingmo recalled, suddenly realizing, he slammed the table and shouted, "You mean that woman represents the merchant family, specifically for this
Come and discuss the topic of the debate?"
"This possibility cannot be ruled out. Otherwise, Brother Jingmo has been in the capital for a long time, but has he ever seen this woman in Jiuxianju? The other scholars and disciples present that day looked like they were seeing that woman for the first time.
Women. Furthermore, ladies from official families are not allowed to show their faces like this. But if they are the children of businessmen, it may not be so strict. In ancient times, Zhuo Wenjun sold wine as a gangster. Isn't it just to make a living? Even beautiful women can show their faces to the public?"
Lu Chengfeng became more and more sure of his judgment as he speculated.
"What Brother Chengfeng said makes sense! But, who is Zhuo Wenjun? Why haven't I heard of this beauty's name?" Wu Jingmo, a bookworm, began to conduct research seriously again.
"It's nothing, just a beautiful woman! But I think she can't be more beautiful than that one!" Lu Chengfeng said, and then laughed crazily, "Come on, take me to Nanshi Street!"
Speaking of Nanshi Street, there are five steps to one street and ten steps to one square. The shouts of merchants are endless. It is really fireworks in the world, with a dazzling array of beautiful things in the world.
"Master, I see your face is glowing red, and the red phoenixes are moving between your eyes. I think you are going to have good luck recently! Do you want to come in and have a fortune telling? I'm sure you'll be sure!" A man blew his mustache.
The fortune teller looked at Lu Chengfeng with a smile and said.
"You really hit the mark! My dear, the red luan star has been moving recently. Not only have there been peach blossoms, but also fairies have come down to earth to look for me! You don't need to do the math, sir, I know that this is a good match sent by heaven!" Lu Cheng
Feng raised his eyebrows at the fortune teller playfully and teased.
"Two gentlemen! Do you want to come in and take a look at the rouge and gouache in the shop? The rouge and gouache in the shop is the best in Jinghua City! Do you want the peach blossom makeup from Xunzhou or the Huerxiang from the Western Regions? Do you want the heroic style from the north end or the chivalrous style from the north end?
Nanli’s Tears of the Witch? The shop has everything you need, and there must be something that the young master’s sweetheart will like if you keep it!”
The waiters at the rouge shop all ran out, enthusiastically holding Lu Chengfeng's hand and speaking like a lotus. He could be called the Dajing version of "Li Jiaqi".
Lu Chengfeng couldn't help but follow him into the shop without even having a cup of tea.
He took out his wallet and bought everything from east to west, rouge, gouache, eyebrow makeup, and lip balm! Holding his empty wallet, he left the shop with a lot of things that he couldn't eat or use.
He finally understood the 21st century girls who watch beauty live broadcasts and buy endlessly. But where is his fairy sister? She hasn't found it yet. How can he and the pile of gifts in his arms adapt to this path?
Chengfeng thought and started to sigh again.
"Two guests, what would you like to eat?" Unknowingly, we arrived at the door of a small restaurant. The large vermilion-carved wooden door was dotted with emerald green lotus patterns, which made this small restaurant look somewhat elegant.
The two of them were already hungry, but unfortunately Lu Chengfeng's wallet was empty and he was too embarrassed to take the initiative to eat for free.
"Let's go! This meal is mine!" Wu Jingmo patted his shoulder proudly and said, "The Yipin Pavilion's cakes are famous in Jinghua City. Even His Majesty praised their Yipin Lotus.
It’s as delicious as the royal food in the palace! Now that you’re here, you must try it!”
The two of them sat down while talking.
"Waiter, first serve a plate of lotus cake! Then a roast goose, a pound of beef, and a pot of good wine!"
"I'm sorry, gentlemen, the store's first-class lotus cakes are no longer available today. Why don't you order something else? The osmanthus sugar dumplings recently launched by the store are also very popular!"
"Are there any pieces left? It's so popular!"
"I'm really sorry. There was a lady just now who bought all the lotus cakes in the shop at one go! Why don't you try the sweet-scented osmanthus dumplings? The lady just bought them too, and many repeat customers like them."
"Which lady? Where did she go?" Upon hearing this, Lu Chengfeng jumped up from his seat, put his hands on the table, stared at the waiter eagerly, and asked eagerly.
"After exiting the store, turn right." The waiter was already two feet tall and was confused.
When Lu Chengfeng heard this, he immediately went out to kill him.
I saw a lilac shadow floating across the street and alley.
Lu Chengfeng rushed towards the shooting star, running desperately in that direction. When he reached the corner, the beauty was no longer there, and the faint fragrance of lilacs was all that was left.
Chapter completed!
