The Emperor Still Dumps: The Demon Queen

Chapter 3 Encountering a Thief
Shangguan Feixue who left the palace was like a bird out of the cage, happy to fly to the sky, although Ouyang Yuling was reluctant to accompany Shangguan Feixue out of the palace.But after seeing the novel world outside the palace, I don't regret it anymore. Although walking is very tiring, I am so happy to see such beautiful and interesting things.

Shangguan Feixue and Ouyang Yuling, who were dressed in men's clothes, would take a stroll every time they came to a lively town.This day they came to Qingyun Town, which is a bustling town to the south. As soon as the two arrived here, they were attracted by the novelties on the street, especially Ouyang Yuling, who wanted everything they saw.Along the way, their hands and bodies are covered with all kinds of novelties.

"Xue'er, what is that? I want to eat it too?" Ouyang Yuling pointed to the child who just passed by. He was holding a bunch of attractive red candied haws. Want to lick it.

"Idiot Lingling, those are called candied haws, they are found everywhere." Shangguan Feixue looked at Ouyang Yuling's slanderous expression and knew that her slander had crawled out. "Let's go, there should be some ahead, I'll take you to buy them." Shangguan Feixue was about to lead Ouyang Yuling to find a seller of candied haws, but was bumped into by someone.

"Brother, please be careful next time, it will hurt if you really hit him." Shangguan Feixue complained and looked at the reckless man who had already run away without a trace.

"Xue'er, I saw that, that, that person carried a lot of candied gourds on his shoulders, hurry up." Ouyang Yuling urged Shangguan Feixue.

"Understood." Shangguan Feixue dragged Ouyang Yuling to the hawker and bought four bunches of candied haws. It seemed that not only Ouyang Yuling was slandering her, but also herself.

The two of them were shopping while eating candied haws. Although there were still a lot of things they wanted to buy, they couldn't take them down. Going shopping is really exhausting work, even though he ate two bunches of candied haws just now, Shangguan Feixue still felt very hungry.

"Okay." Ouyang Yuling reluctantly looked away, followed Shangguan Feixue to a restaurant.These days, following Shangguan Feixue, eating hot food and drinking spicy food, she finally knew that the outside of the palace is so fresh and fun, and there are more things to eat than in the palace.

They ordered a table of delicious meals, and when they were about to start, Shangguan Feixue saw a few beggars outside the door drooling at them, and thought, anyway, with so many meals, the two of them would If you can't finish eating, just ask them to eat together.Shangguan Feixue thought about waving to them, and when the few beggars saw Shangguan Feixue's gesture, they rushed in, but they were stopped by Xiao Er at the door.

"Little brother, please let them in, I want to treat them to dinner." Shangguan Feixue shouted at Xiaoer.Xiao Er looked at Shangguan Feixue, and finally let go of his obstructing hands.

"My lord, you really want to invite us to dinner." The little beggar looked excitedly at the table full of food, drooling.

"Eat it, we can't finish it anyway, eat it, we'll call if it's not enough." Shangguan Feixue couldn't bear to look at the little beggar who kept swallowing.

The table full of food was in a mess after the little beggars gobbled it up, causing many people to be speechless.Shangguan Feixue looked at the little beggar who was wiping his mouth and asked, "Are you full? If it's not enough, I'll call again."

"I'm full, I'm full, thank you son." The little beggar quickly replied, although they still wanted to eat more, they were already very satisfied with such a good meal.

"It's good when you're full." Shangguan Feixue waved to Xiaoer: "Brother, pay the bill." Xiaoer ran over happily.

"Sheng Hui, my lord, the total is 15 taels of silver." Shangguan Feixue took out the broken silver from his sleeve, and found that there were only eight taels of silver. A paper.Shangguan Feixue saw a flock of crows flying over her head and lost the silver ticket. She suddenly thought of the young man who hit her. Now she finally understood why he ran away after hitting her without even apologizing. It turned out that he was a thief.Shangguan Feixue's hand rested on his chest in embarrassment, "Lingling, do you have a bank note with you?"

"A bank note? You mean the paper you can buy things with? No." Shangguan Feixue's face darkened. How could Ouyang Yuling have a bank note on her body? Before she left the palace, she still didn't know what a bank note was. The golden branches and jade leaves, this is miserable.

"My lord, 15 taels of silver." Xiaoer looked at Shangguan Feixue whose face had turned black, and spoke fiercely.

"Here, little brother, can you charge less, we may have encountered a thief on the street just now, and the bank note is gone." Shangguan Feixue said in a low voice, looking at the little two pleadingly.

"What? You dare to come up to eat without money. I don't care who you meet. You have to pay for money when you eat." Xiaoer's loud voice immediately attracted the attention of many people.

Shangguan Feixue looked at the crowd in embarrassment, and begged Xiaoer again, "Brother Xiaoer, can you see if this works? We use these things as collateral. Look, we bought this beautiful jade bracelet for ten taels of silver. Now let's buy it." Is it okay to be Qiliang?"

"I want your bracelet to be useful, hurry up and get the silver." The little errand glared at Shangguan Feixue, whoever has money here is the uncle, if you don't have money, I'm sorry, you are the grandson, you are the turtle egg.

"But, little brother, we really have no money..." Shangguan Feixue wanted to reason with the little brother again, but the little brother didn't give face at all.

"Don't come to eat if you don't have money, don't show off if you don't have money..." Xiaoer wanted to go on, but was interrupted by the shopkeeper's voice.

"What's so noisy?" The shopkeeper stepped up to Shangguan Feixue's table, glanced at Shangguan Feixue, and glared at Xiao Er.

"Even if the guest officer is really in trouble, you can't be so cruel. A visitor is a guest. No matter whether he has money or not, he who enters our delicious building is a guest. Don't do this again next time." Said: "It seems that this young man really met a thief, but we open the door to do business, and the young man never eats for free. Here is eight taels of silver, and there is still a difference of seven taels. Although the workmanship of this bracelet is good, it is not worth seven taels of silver. Two silver coins, my lord, but there are other special pledges."

"Well, shopkeeper, why don't we give you all these things, is it enough for seven taels of silver?" Shangguan Feixue pushed all the things they bought from the street to the shopkeeper.These things just now cost them no less than a hundred taels of silver.

The shopkeeper glanced at the items in front of him, and nodded with a troubled expression. "Okay, Young Master, you'd better look at your silver taels before ordering food next time."

"Thank you, shopkeeper. I must keep in mind the shopkeeper's warning." Shangguan Feixue thanked the shopkeeper persistently, and after speaking, she pulled Ouyang Yuling and ran to the restaurant.

"Xue'er, our things obviously cost more than seven taels of silver, why do you give them all?" Ouyang Yuling who was standing in front of the restaurant couldn't understand. Although she didn't know the value of silver, when they bought those things, Obviously spent a lot of money, not to mention seven taels, more than ten seven taels, why did Xue Er give it all to others?
"Shhh" Shangguan Feixue pulled Ouyang Yuling away from the restaurant, "Forget it, I will buy those things later, it is our fault that we have no money to pay for the food, even if those things are worth 1000 taels of silver, as long as they say more than a penny , we have no money to pay for meals, we can’t leave the restaurant, and we may be sent to the government to sue us for eating the overlord’s meal. Now that they don’t embarrass us, it doesn’t matter whether it’s seven taels or 70 taels.” That’s not the point, now What troubled Shangguan Feixue the most was that they had no money, not to mention food, and even a place to live.

Shangguan Feixue looked at the little beggar who was following them, it seemed that she would become a beggar just like them.Glancing at Ouyang Yuling, Shangguan Feixue really didn't dare to tell Ouyang Yuling that they would be begging for a living.Even if she wanted to go back to the palace now, she would probably have to beg to go back, not to mention that since she came out, she couldn't go back no matter what, but she really didn't know what to do with Ouyang Yuling?
