Empress can't eat enough

Chapter 24
Yongshengzhai Bookstore has a small facade, and there are very few book customers inside. It seems that the business is not as good as other stores.

"Shopkeeper, do you still sell the new chapter of 'My Lady Can't Eat Enough'?" Ah Man stepped forward and asked.

"Coincidentally, there is the last one left." The shopkeeper touched his horn beard, smiled all over his face, but changed the subject: "But, this last one, I won't sell it without a tael of silver." .”

"One tael of silver? The last article is only ten cents!" Ah Man's eyes widened in shock.

"Why don't you say it's a new chapter?" The boss explained with a smile, "It continues the unfinished story of the previous chapter, and the content is very exciting!"

"That's not going to cost a tael of silver! A story book... the fairy sister's writing can't be so expensive!"

The shopkeeper immediately smiled and said contemptuously: "If you don't buy it, someone will buy it! Go slow, I won't give it away."

"Aman, give him the money." Wei Yingning spoke.

Li Chongjian was thinking about it, how could she not want it because of the high price?
After hearing this, the shopkeeper immediately went in happily and took out the book.

But when paying the money with one hand and delivering the goods with the other hand, a man suddenly broke in and snatched the book away. He gave Ah Man a disdainful look and said, "My wife has already ordered this book."

As he spoke, he took out a piece of silver and put it on the table, accusing the shopkeeper: "The shopkeeper is so greedy! No matter how much you like silver, you can't sell two things for one thing, right?"

The shopkeeper looked at the ingot of silver, his eyes were shining with gold, and he said hurriedly: "Yes, yes, yes! I forgot, this book was ordered by this brother a long time ago."

"Bullying people, right?" Ah Man immediately became angry, and reached out his hand to snatch the script from the man's hand, but unexpectedly the man was clever and avoided it swiftly.

It seems that a fist fight cannot be avoided.

Wei Yingning stepped back skillfully.Wei Nanny stepped back while covering Ling'er's eyes, and said, "When adults fight, children don't watch."

Although the visitor had some punches and kicks, Ah Man still beat him to the ground.

She stepped on him, took the book, and did not forget to warn: "Next time you see me, auntie, remember to take a detour! Just like you, I will hit you every time I see you. And you! She looked at the shopkeeper hiding behind the table viciously, and scolded: "If you earn too much money, be careful not to be struck by lightning!"

The shopkeeper trembled when he heard the words: "The heroine, spare your life! The heroine likes that book, just take it, I don't want the money... I don't want the money!"

Ah Man took out ten fen and threw it to him, "I am not a robber either, I should give you a penny."

"Little Lord, help me!" The man under his feet suddenly shouted towards the door.

Everyone looked outside the door, only to see Pingning Xiaohou Zhou Lingru and Huan Wang Li Mu passing by the door of Shusi.

Ah Man lost his mind for a moment, and loosened his foot strength, and the man who was beaten into a pig's head took the opportunity to escape in a flash.

He saluted Huan Wang and Ning Xiaohou one after another, then pointed at Ah Man's nose, and said angrily: "Little Marquis, this girl is very barbaric! If you snatch the third lady, I will book it with the store and don't say it. He also beat the little ones..."

"You let go...you're talking nonsense." Facing the handsome Pingning Xiaohou, Ah Man's attitude softened.She explained: "He obviously came later, but the shopkeeper changed his mind and wanted to sell him when he saw that he paid a lot of money."

"I'm wronged, young master, if you don't believe me, you can ask this store."

The shopkeeper huddled, knowing that the person standing outside the door was the young lord of Pingninghou's mansion, and the person who came to buy books was also a servant of Pingninghou's mansion. After thinking about it, he replied decisively: "Indeed, it was decided early in the morning. Understand……"

Before he finished speaking, Ah Man rushed over and grabbed his collar with one hand and punched him with the other, "Are you begging for a beating?"

"Ah Man, stop." Wei Yingning hurried over to stop her.

She took the book from her body, then walked to the door and said to Pingning Xiaohou Zhou Lingru: "I guess it was a misunderstanding. Since the Pingninghou's residence has already made an appointment, I will return this book to you."

Zhou Lingru glanced at the cover of the book, but said in a warm voice: "The lady of the Wei family likes this script, so just read it."

Wei Yingning couldn't help raising her eyes to look at him, seeing that his eyes were as gentle as water, making that peerless face even more radiant, her heart throbbed, and she hurriedly looked away.

"Young Master," the beaten young servant felt aggrieved and embarrassed, "This is what San Niangzi must read, it's the last book in all of Kyoto..."

"I'll talk to my third sister when I get back." Zhou Lingru interrupted him, and then said to Wei Yingning: "It's a big deal, I'll send someone to Wei Mansion to get it back after Mrs. Wei finishes reading it."

This was even more surprising to Wei Yingning.She never expected that Xiaohou Pingning would handle this trivial matter like this.

If he lent her a book and asked someone to pick it up, what would she have to do in return?This time and again, it is bound to... What does he mean by this?Shouldn't he avoid her?

"Thank you very much." After thinking about it, Wei Yingning accepted his kindness.

"What kind of book is it that is so popular?" Huan Wang Li Mu, who was watching the excitement with his folding fan, put away his folding fan, took the book from Wei Yingning's hand and casually flipped through it.

"Ms. Wei's dress is quite unique." Zhou Lingru smiled and chatted with Wei Yingning.

"I made the young master laugh..."

On the side, Li Mu sniffed his nose, and interjected, "With such a dress, I must have gone out to buy wine. How many pots did you drink today?"

In front of Xiaohou Pingning, he was said to be an alcoholic who disguised himself as a man and went out to buy alcohol, Wei Yingning blushed when he heard that, and felt ashamed.

"Unexpectedly, Mrs. Wei is also a wine lover." Zhou Lingru said, "I have two jars of peach blossom wine brought back from Bianzhou in my possession. Wife try something new."

If you don't talk about the book, you still want to give her wine?It was flattering to be so attentive.

"Okay...thank you." Wei Yingning almost lost his composure.She tried to stabilize her mind, thought for a while and took the script from Li Mu's hand, and said softly to the two: "It's getting late, I should go back. Farewell."

Li Mu only felt that she had snatched the script from his hand abruptly, which was very rude.But the way she talked to Zhou Lingru was so gentle and virtuous.

Women, sure enough, no one can escape Zhou Lingru's beauty trap.

shallow.

Since it is superficial, then let it be your own harm!

But even thinking like this in his heart, watching Wei Yingning take Ah Man and others away, he still couldn't help asking Zhou Lingru: "Are you really thinking about it?"

Zhou Lingru had already suppressed the anger in his eyes, and said wearily, "It's very good that a saint bestows marriage. At least, I don't have to be my father's pawn anymore."

"Not to be your father's pawn, but to be my father's pawn." Li Mu thought it was funny.

Zhou Lingru didn't take it seriously, "I heard Wei Shilang is a pure minister, not necessarily someone's sword. The lady of the Wei family is very suitable for me."
