After being stunned for a moment, Mo Lier rushed out from behind the counter, threw herself on Xu Zizhen and hugged him tightly, biting her lips and crying silently.
Xu Zizhen felt uncomfortable. He held Mo Lier's slender waist with one hand and gently stroked her back with the other. He comforted her softly: "Okay, okay, there are so many people here, it's a joke."
Mo Lier seemed to want to completely pour out the grievances she had accumulated over the past few days. She ignored Xu Zizhen's words and just buried her head in his arms and cried. The dozens of pairs of surprised eyes in the store did not pay her any attention.
Affected, she slowly raised her head after sobbing for a while, and said softly: "Guanren, you...are you back?"
"Well, I'm back."
"Are you still leaving?"
Looking at Mo Lier's nervous eyes, Xu Zizhen knew that she was worried that he would leave again, and couldn't help but feel pain in his heart. He forced a smile and shook his head, and whispered in her ear: "I won't leave, starting from today.
I will stay with you every day and make up for the sins of these days."
Mo Lier hurriedly stretched out her hand to cover his mouth: "Don't talk nonsense, officials are people who do important things, and they were harmed by an adulterer last time and had to leave. How can there be any crime that is not sinful?"
Xu Zizhen smiled and took her little hand: "Okay, okay, don't talk nonsense." After saying that, he turned around and bowed to the surroundings, smiling and said, "Madams and ladies, I'm sorry to disturb you. The rouge that you have chosen today is
All the fans are priced at 20% off, so I apologize."
There were cheers of surprise in the store. Although it was fun to see people cuddling in public, it was not as real as the dazzling array of cosmetics and powders on sale.
The curtain leading to the back hall moved, and then a surprising voice came: "Uncle?"
As soon as Xu Zizhen turned his head, he saw Bao'er nimbly walking through the crowd holding a pile of powder boxes, and soon came to him. He was better than Mo Li'er, but his eyes were already red: "Uncle, can you come back?
Got it!"
Xu Zizhen rubbed his head: "You are a young man now. Why are you crying when your uncle comes back fine?"
Baoer raised his hand and wiped his eyes with his sleeve, rubbed his neck and said: "I'm not crying, I'm a man!"
Xu Zizhen laughed and said: "Haha! Yes, our Bao'er has also been on the battlefield and killed a golden dog."
"Of course!" When talking about this Bao'er, he couldn't help but be proud. It's not unusual for him to go to the battlefield at such a young age, but what's strange is that he went to the battlefield with Xu Zizhen. In his opinion, this is more worthy of boasting than anything else.
Xu Zizhen patted his head, turned to Mo Lier and said, "Let's go home first. I'm also thinking about Qiaoyi and the others, and I'll let you meet a few people by the way."
Mo Li'er had held back her tears and nodded obediently. There were still a few hired women busy in the store. Mo Li'er went over and told them that as Xu Zizhen said, all powders would be 20% off.
, then came back and said to Bao'er first: "Bao'er, go and inform Sister Wen first, as well as Sister Gao, Daye and the others."
Bao'er responded happily and ran out the door. Xu Zizhen took Mo Li'er's hand and came outside, smiled and took her to the carriage, pointing to the hanging curtain: "Here, I will take you to meet a few people.
"
Mo Lier got into the car as she was told, but was shocked to find that there were several people in the car. She already knew Hu Sanniang and Gillian. She had seen them when Ohno brought them back after Xu Zizhen was stopped halfway last time, but there were several others.
She was angry.
Xu Zizhen also got into the car, but he was a little embarrassed when they met. He scratched his head and introduced sisters Lin Zhi and Lin Chaoying first. Mo Lier was as gentle as water. Hearing that Xu Zizhen recognized Lin Zhi as his sister, he was also overjoyed.
Hu Sanniang saw the gift, and then took Lin Zhi's little hand and had a close relationship.
Next, I had a headache. Xu Zizhen didn't know how to introduce Zhuo Ya, because there was already a Qiaoyi at home, and there was also Wen Xian who was engaged, and Shui Liuli who got married in Taiyuan and returned to Yingtian.
, according to the etiquette of these days, the wives and concubines are already married, and it would be against the rules to bring his wife back home. However, Zhuoya is already engaged, so how to say it becomes a problem.
Unexpectedly, before Xu Zizhen spoke, Mo Lier turned around and smiled: "This sister is so good-looking. My little sister, Li'er, I have met my sister."
Not only Xu Zizhen, but also Zhuo Ya was caught off guard. She was already a little nervous and was waiting for Xu Zizhen to introduce her, but Xu Zizhen only scratched his head and said nothing for a long time, causing her to sit down.
Pretending to be quiet there, Mo Lier unexpectedly spoke first, and as sisters, she had obviously guessed her relationship with Xu Zizhen, which made her blush instantly and stood up in a hurry to return the favor.
"Sister Li'er, I..." Zhuo Ya was already extremely embarrassed when she said this. She didn't know what to say. She glared at Xu Zizhen nervously.
Xu Zizhen coughed dryly and forced a smile: "Li'er, this is Zhuo Ya, it's... I got engaged in Tubo."
After he finished speaking, he secretly looked at Mo Li'er's expression, but he didn't see any displeasure on her. He was about to breathe a sigh of relief when he saw Mo Li'er straightening her clothes and bowing down: "Princess, the daughter of the people, pays her respects."
Your Highness."
Zhuo Ya hurriedly held her with both hands and said urgently: "Sister, please don't do this. Since I followed Xu Zizhen, I am just an ordinary woman. From now on, I can't say anything about Your Highness or His Highness."
Noila Mo was not pretentious either. She stood up straight and still had a heart-melting smile on her face.
But Xu Zizhen was very surprised: "Li'er, how did you know that Zhuo Ya is the princess of Tubo?"
Mo Li'er covered her mouth and smiled: "Li'er not only knows Sister Zhuo Ya, but also knows that there are Sister Li and Sister Yun in Xixia."
Xu Zizhen was stunned: "You..."
Li Meng suddenly interjected: "Uncle, Aunt Li'er is in charge of your caravan's route to Yingtian Mansion now. There is nothing that she doesn't know about you in Tubo Daxia these days."
Xu Zizhen suddenly realized. Thinking about it, his caravan has traveled several routes now. Hu Qing is taking care of it for him in Taiyuan, but the majority of the Han people coming south can't be without someone to take care of it, right? Come to think of it.
After all, only Li'er is suitable for this job.
Just when he thought of this, he suddenly came back to his senses and took a closer look at Mo Lier's expression. He didn't see any dissatisfaction or displeasure on her face, and he felt relieved. Li'er was still well-behaved and sensible, not jealous at all.
Gee, where can I find such a good wife?
Xu Zizhen was very proud and said with a smile: "Okay, let's go home first. Today I want to have a few drinks with Little Li'er!"
Although Mo Lier had been married to him for several months, she couldn't help but blush when she heard his frivolous words. She turned her head away and talked to Zhuo Yalingzhi, pretending not to hear.
The carriage started to move, and Xu Zizhen got out of the car and rode with him. He opened the curtain and saw a bright full moon in the sky. He was suddenly startled: "Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival?"
