Shen Yingxue didn't expect Guo Zhao to be so courageous. He dared to say this with so many people on the street. If someone heard him, she would have nothing to do with him.
Guo Zhao looked at her like a little rabbit, and her hair stood up when she was frightened. Now her eyes were widened and she looked around nervously. Guo Zhao lowered his head and raised his hand to his mouth and coughed lightly, hiding his smile in his mouth. , stop teasing her.
"Okay, I'm leaving first."
Guo Zhao still had official duties to attend to, and soon disappeared around the street corner after saying goodbye to Shen Yingxue.
Shen Yingxue waited for him to go away, then took the hairpin on the counter with bare hands, and carefully put the hairpin into her sleeve pocket, the corners of her mouth unconsciously raised, and her heart was full of sweetness.
The man looked cold on the surface, but what he said made her blush and her heart beat. Shen Yingxue felt like she was back when the girl was pregnant, thinking about her sweetheart every day, and her heart would beat fast just thinking about it.
"Hey, Mrs. Shen, why are you face so red?"
Customers in the shop came one after another, and several ladies couldn't help but ask when they saw Shen Yingxue's appearance.
It wasn't hot this morning, so why was she so red? These people didn't think about anything else. Otherwise, if they had paid more attention, they would have noticed the affection on her face.
"Ahem, it's okay... Madam, what do you want to buy? Today I have Xue Mei Niang and bean paste cake..."
Shen Yingxue was afraid that others would see something, so she quickly changed the topic. Sure enough, when the ladies heard that there were new products in the shop, their eyes focused on the snacks and no longer paid attention to Shen Yingxue.
"Give me five dollars for everything..."
"I want to..."
Guo Zhao returned home and handed the snacks to Mother Guo. When he went out, he still had a cold expression on his face. Now the coldness on his face has softened, and his eyes are full of smiles. Mother Guo knows him very well, and he can change even a little bit. Discovered by Mother Guo.
"You went to see that little lady?"
Otherwise, why would he have such a look on his face? Mother Guo looked at him from top to bottom with suspicious eyes. It was hard not to think too much.
Guo Zhao was glanced at by his mother, so he quickly stopped his smile and put on a straight face again.
"I went to buy some snacks for you. I got a new product today. Mom, please eat it while it's hot. I have to go to the county government office."
Guo Zhao stuffed the snacks into Mother Guo's hands, turned around and left, looking like he was running away in despair.
Mother Guo kept shaking her head and mumbling.
"Something's wrong, there must be something wrong with him acting like this, huh, he wants to hide it from me..."
Guo's mother has always wanted to know which little lady Guo Zhao likes, so that she can come to propose marriage. Now she doesn't say anything, just relying on his boring donkey temperament that can't be beaten with three sticks, he wants to marry a wife for the rest of his life. .
"Madam, please have some snacks."
The little maid didn't dare to get involved in the master's affairs, so she put the snacks into a white jade plate and served it to the table. The white, plump and soft Snow Meiniang looked even more attractive on the plate. In the past, Mother Guo couldn't help but see the snacks. She rushed forward, but this time her eyes were thoughtful.
"Xiao Cui, go and find out about the shopkeeper of Jiang Ji's shop."
She understands Guo Zhao's temperament and usually does not take the initiative to contact the young lady. His recent behavior seems to have started with buying snacks for himself. In the past, Guo Zhao stayed away from the young lady, but now he is thinking about getting married. Guo's mother thinks this problem lies in At this dessert shop.
Guo Zhao didn't know that his mother had discovered Zhenxiang, so the little maid got the order and went out.
Jiang Ji's shop was full of people, and Shen Yingxue entertained the guests with a smile on her face. From a distance, she looked elegant and elegant, wearing a pomegranate red dress, which made her skin look better than snow, and she was more delicate than flowers.
The little maid was dumbfounded. This little lady is really good-looking. She is prettier than any other little lady she has ever seen. No wonder her father likes her.
"Madam, may I ask whose wife is the shopkeeper of Jiang Ji's shop?"
The little maid asked no one else, but Shopkeeper Qin of Jinxiu Pavilion. Shopkeeper Qin looked at her with clear eyes, because she still had a naive look on her young face, and she didn't look like someone with ulterior motives.
So shopkeeper Qin didn't fool her. Some people had asked her about Shen Yingxue before, but they could tell at a glance that they had bad intentions. Shopkeeper Qin was close to Jiang Miao, so why would he tell her about Shen Yingxue so casually?
"This little lady belongs to the Shen family in the east of the city. Her younger brother is this year's top scholar and is now an official in Zhenjiang Prefecture..."
"So this little lady not only has a good family background, but also looks good, and the snacks she makes are so delicious..."
Mother Guo's heart dropped when she heard the little maid's reward. How could she like Guo Zhao with such a good condition?
Just because her younger brother is an official, this young lady has to find a husband to get married. Although Guo Zhao works as an errand in the county government, he is just a catcher. His monthly monthly salary is not as much as what this young lady earns from selling snacks in a day. How can this happen? It doesn't look good enough for anyone else.
"Hey, Guo Zhao, don't think about it, it won't happen."
The little maid also felt that although her father was good, he was not worthy of Mrs. Shen. Such a delicate and pretty appearance was suitable for a handsome scholar. Her father's cold temper was probably not meant to frighten the little lady.
Both the master and the servant were unhappy. Guo's mother couldn't even eat the snacks. When she saw the snacks, she felt sad for Guo Zhao.
It took a lot of effort to fall in love with this little lady, but it still didn't work out. She can't eat these snacks from now on. It saves Guo Zhao to buy snacks for her every day and meet that little lady. He will only get deeper and deeper into it.
"Why!"
Mother Guo let out a big sigh, reached for Xue Mei Niang, and ate it in small bites. The sweetness of the glutinous rice mixed with cream was so delicious that it could swallow the tongue.
Mother Guo cherished what she ate more and more. After all, it might be the last time she ate it, and she would never eat such a delicious snack again.
In order to make Guo Zhao give up earlier, she really paid too much.
Shen Yingxue knew nothing about the Guo family. After selling the snacks, she closed the shop and went home.
Jiang Miao and others had not returned from picking sweet potato seedlings. Shen Yingxue simply washed herself and took out the beaded hairpin from her sleeve pocket.
She stroked the beads on it, her almond-shaped eyes full of smiles. Shen Yingxue sat in front of the bronze mirror, simply pulled up her hair into a bun, and inserted the beaded hairpin in her hair.
The bright white pearls were dotted in the dark cloud-like black hair, making Shen Yingxue delicate and elegant. The more she looked at it, the more she liked it.
"Yingxue, come out and help!"
Shen Yingxue had finished admiring it and was about to take off the hairpin when Granny Zhang shouted outside. She was so flustered that she hurried out of the door without even taking off the hairpin.
"Mom, are you back?"
"Well, we have picked sweet potato seedlings from seven acres of land. Come and help us organize them."
"Why."
Shen Yingxue knew that Jiang Miao was going back to Zhenjiang Prefecture immediately. These rice seedlings were life-saving food for the people of Zhenjiang Prefecture and could not be ignored.
"Sister, your hairpin is so beautiful."
Jiang Miao was lowering her head to arrange the seedlings. Shen Yingxue knelt down beside her. Jiang Miao's eyes were dazzled by the beads and she praised her.
