Chapter 20
As soon as the words fell, a girl strode in from the door.

She was wearing a small peach-red jacket with an ankle-length goose-yellow brocade skirt. The brocade fluttered as she walked, and she was very agile.

"Shopkeeper, I like that green magnolia skirt, wrap it up for me." She raised her head arrogantly, pointing to the side with her small pale hand.

The shopkeeper said apologetically, "I'm sorry, miss, this green skirt is a unique item. This young man bought it before you. There are other styles in the store. Miss, let's look at others."

I was standing behind the door, and she rushed in from the door, naturally she didn't see me.At this time, after hearing what the shopkeeper said, he saw me from the side.

I wanted to nod my head kindly, but who knows, she looked me up and down, but snorted.

"Hmph, Miss Ben doesn't want it if it's not a unique product. So what if he wants it? Shopkeeper, let me ask you, has he paid for this skirt?"

"Er..." The shopkeeper was a little embarrassed, and said truthfully, "Go back to this lady, this young man has not paid the money, but he has long ago..."

"What do you buy if you haven't paid yet? Shopkeeper, I'll pay now, this skirt is mine now. Bamboo, pay."

"Yes!" The little maid next to her responded, and took out a silver ingot worth 50 taels from her purse, and stuffed it into the shopkeeper's hand.

"This..." The shopkeeper looked at the silver in his hand, then at me, and said with a troubled expression, "Young master, I think this little girl really likes this green skirt, how about this?" There are still a batch of gauze skirts in the store that haven't been displayed. You can give this skirt to this lady, young man. Let's go in and choose another one. What do you think?"

"This……"

"Of course not!" Before I could speak, Luzhu became displeased, and stepped forward and said, "Boss, we are the first to see this dress. You can't just give it to others just because they forced money. Boss , you should sell this skirt to us!."

At this time, a servant had already wrapped the skirt and sent it to the shopkeeper.He took the paper bag and looked at me, then at her, with a troubled expression on his face.

"Hmph, Gan Nian has a lot of strange things. Anyone dares to come and grab things from Miss Ben. Zhuzi, don't talk nonsense, just take the things away!"

"Yes!" The servant girl replied crisply, and took a step forward, about to pull the paper bag from the shopkeeper's hand.

Lu Zhu was really in a hurry this time, so she hurried over to grab the paper bag, "Hey, why are you doing this, you still want to grab it with your hands, it's unreasonable!"

"Reasonable, right? Alright!" The woman smiled contemptuously, "Then you can wear the skirts. If you can wear them, I will give you the skirts, how about it?"

"You!" Luzhu's face turned red instantly.

Not to mention how old Luzhu is older than me, I can't fit this dress at all, and I'm a little thinner, so I can't hold up the skirt, but let's say that the two of us are wearing men's clothes at this time, how can we try on a woman's skirt?
This woman is too hard to be human!

I'm also a little unhappy.Originally, I just wanted to buy myself a birthday present, but I might not be able to wear it when I bought it back.If she speaks well, let her be so arrogant...

Hmph, no!

Seeing that I was silent, Luzhu naturally had a backbone, and stepped forward to grab the skirt.The maid named Zhuzi didn't suffer any disadvantage, and immediately snatched it back.

The two of them pulled each other, and the girl and I looked at each other silently, the shopkeeper looked left and right, and didn't know what to say, it was very embarrassing for a while.

"Sister, let's give this skirt to them."

With a whisper, another woman came in from the door. This person had a slim figure, delicate eyebrows and eyes, and she was actually an acquaintance.

The woman glanced at me, nodded slightly, and then said to the girl, "Little sister, let's give them the skirt.

You have quite a few dresses, not more of this one, and not less of this one.I see that there are many kinds of dresses in this shop, and that purple flower dress is pretty good, why don't we take a look at that one. "

The shopkeeper hurriedly nodded and agreed, "Yes, yes, other styles are also good-looking."

"Hmph, no! I want this one." The girl stared at me provocatively.

The woman said again, "I just came from Linlang Courtyard nearby, and saw that his house also has a lot of new brocades, why don't we go over there and have a look."

The shopkeeper echoed, "That's right, that's right, he has a lot of brocade styles."

The girl became irritated for a while, turned her head and said, "Shut up, you go aside!"

The shopkeeper hurriedly took a few steps back, not daring to step forward from a distance.

The woman sighed and smiled at me apologetically, "Please don't take offense, my little girl has a savage temper, if there is any verbal conflict, I still look to Haihan."

After finishing speaking, she walked over, gently picked up the skirt from the bamboo hand, smoothed the wrinkles on the paper bag, then went to the shopkeeper, took back the money from the green pearl, and put it on the paper bag.

Walked over and said, "I'll buy this skirt. But since you like it so much, we will give this skirt to you as compensation for the abruptness just now. Let's make friends. How about you?" "

"Oh, Sister Rong'er!" The girl looked unhappy, but Liu Rong'er just glanced at her lightly, she didn't dare to speak, she snorted softly, and stood aside with her mouth pouted.

I looked at Liu Rong'er, she was holding her clothes, she didn't have any strange expression in her eyes, but the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and the exquisite eyebrows and eyes made people feel like a spring breeze.

I laughed.

Reaching out to take the silver tael back, he handed it to the boss and said, "Shopkeeper, I suddenly feel that the purple dress is more beautiful. I want that purple dress, and this one, let this lady."

"Okay, okay, wrap it up for the young master immediately." The shopkeeper has a big head, and when he sees a turning point, he immediately agrees, and quickly picks up the clothes and wraps them up. At that speed, I'm afraid I will regret it if I'm too slow.

"Thank you very much." Liu Rong'er nodded and saluted.

I smiled slightly, said my farewell, and stepped out with the green beads.

"Miss, since you like that dress, and they offered to give it to you, why don't you want it?"

After walking a long distance, Lu Zhu muttered a little bit unjustly.

I smiled slightly.

A skirt, if you say you can't wear it, even if you can wear it, you can wear it for a year at most.

Wearing a skirt that I like for a year, and making a friend, I choose the latter.

This Liu Rong'er is still very interesting.

All the way silent, and soon arrived at the general's mansion.The new maid, Qingteng, was waiting at the door of the small gate. When she saw me coming back, she rushed over and said, "Miss, it's not good. Come in and have a look, something happened."

I hurried back to the courtyard, and before I entered the courtyard, I heard the new woman cursing, "Which one deserves a thousand knives for committing crimes, why are there so many beasts!"

I walked a few steps quickly and looked into the yard, and I was also shocked.

There are rat ants and miscellaneous insects all over the ground, densely packed, almost covering the ground of the courtyard.

I have a natural aversion to these things. After taking a closer look, my stomach was overwhelmed and I almost vomited it out.

"When did so many things gather?" I asked.

Qingteng said, "Just after the time passed, I saw one or two mice. At first I thought it was because the food was not put away, but then they gathered more and more. Miss, you went out through the back door. We don't dare to make too much noise when you are not here." , I just wanted to wait for you to come back and talk about it, who knows that these things will become more and more, and it will become like this now."

It's really strange, for no reason, how can there be so many rats and bugs?

"Has anyone been here today?"

"Miss Hui, no one has been here today."

"What about the few days I was away? What's the difference?"

"Miss Hui, there has never been anything unusual."

I nodded, "Go and tell the housekeeper to ask someone to clean it up. Don't make too much noise. If someone asks why there are so many things gathered, you can tell me that I sprinkled honey in the yard in the morning. Just ask and say you don’t know.”

"Yes." Qingteng replied, turned around and ran to the front yard.After a while, the butler came over with his servants and Tie Qiang.

They first boiled several barrels of hot water and dumped them all in the yard, scalding many rats and insects to death, then removed the corpses of bookworms and boiled water to scald them.

Finally, I used a big pot to burn the medicine to repel insects and rats, and dusted it on. I went back and forth until the yard was cleaned up, and it was almost Haishi.

After thanking the housekeeper, Lu Zhu came over to take care of the wash. I saw that she was also tired, so I told her to go back to sleep after washing.

I sat by the window, but I couldn't fall asleep.

Who made these things to scare me?This person is really, it's really boring to come up with this method!
Maybe I saw too many bugs and mice, I felt a little uncomfortable, but I didn't feel sleepy at all, so I just sat on the chair and drank tea one after another.

Drinking and drinking, unexpectedly hungry.

It's really strange, the more hungry I want to eat, I seem to smell the smell of roast leg of lamb...

"Ha..." A chuckle came from behind me, I turned my head abruptly, and at some point, there was a person standing behind me.

I said angrily, "Why did you come into my room again!"

He bent his lips and smiled, "You girl, why are you so bad-tempered. When you see me, you yell. If I come into your room, can I still eat you?"

I ignored him lazily and shouted "Get out!"

He wasn't angry either, he just hugged his shoulders and asked, "Are you sure you want me out?"

Before I could answer, he said to himself, "Alright, then I'll go out. When I came here, I saw a few little night cats outside. Let me eat half of the leg of lamb and feed the other half to the cats."

After finishing speaking, he opened the paper bag in his hand, smelled it lightly, and immediately nodded and praised, "Mmm! It smells good! As expected of a baby lamb, it tastes different when roasted!"

"Gululu...Gulu..."

My stomach rumbled disobediently.

I was a little embarrassed, but his lips were curved, and there was an endless smile in his peach eyes.Then suddenly approached, I only felt that my sleeve was pulled, and the next moment, I was standing on the roof...

"Hey! Why do you drag me up to the roof every time without my consent!" I glared at him.

But he smiled slightly, "Because I like looking at the moon."

After speaking, he took me to a few jumps and left the general's mansion.
