Chapter 406: We have new people, but don’t forget the old ones…
Ji Xingle also noticed Princess Jiaoyang's wolf-like gaze. Before she could react, Huangfu Xinyue domineeringly blocked Ji Xingle's figure.
Staring fiercely at Princess Jiaoyang through the hat...(?_?)
Seeing Ji Xingle's figure was blocked, Princess Jiaoyang raised her eyes and glared at Huangfu Xinyue.
At a glance, Princess Jiaoyang instantly got goose bumps all over his body. He rubbed his arms with both hands and thought to himself, what's going on? Why does he feel murderous intent?
Before he could think about it, the shopkeeper came out holding a big gift box;
"Princess Jiaoyang, look, this is the animal ceramic box set..."
Princess Jiaoyang's thoughts were instantly attracted by the box, and her lackeys also looked at the box with great anticipation.
The attendant glanced at Princess Jiaoyang, and when he nodded, he immediately stepped forward and opened the box;
"——-Wow!" (((o(*?▽?*)o)))
"Is this the rumored 12-animal set?"
"Isn't this too beautiful and exquisite?"
"Oh my God! Shopkeeper, do you still have this set of boxes? I want to buy one too..."
"Me too, me too..."
Seeing this, the shopkeeper couldn't stop laughing. He wanted to say that he had a few more sets, but when he saw the gloomy face of Princess Jiaoyang, he changed his words immediately;
"Sorry, this animal set is very popular, so this is the only one left..."
After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he wiped the sweat off his forehead and glanced at Princess Jiaoyang again. Seeing the smile on his face, he felt relieved.
Hearing this, several lackeys said with some disappointment;
"what a pity!"
"Yes!"
Although they were disappointed, they did not forget to flatter;
"His Highness was lucky. He bought the last one..."
"Yes, Your Highness is a blessed person..." (?????????)
Princess Jiaoyang was flattered by the praises of several people, and said to the shopkeeper with satisfaction;
"How much? I want..."
Seeing that Princess Jiaoyang really wanted it, the shopkeeper smiled and pretended to be serious while calculating with an abacus.
"This set originally costs 1000 taels of silver, but since it's you, the princess, you only need to give me the cost price of 800 taels of silver..."
"hiss..."
"800 taels of silver?" ( ；′Д｀)
"So expensive? I thought three or four hundred taels would be the maximum, but I didn't expect it to be so expensive..."
"Yeah! This is too expensive. I have only saved a few thousand taels of silver after so long. If I buy this, my pocket will be empty..."
"Princess Jiaoyang is still the best. She can buy whatever she wants..."
"Yes! I'm so envious..."
Hearing this, Princess Jiaoyang's face instantly changed into various colors. He had not expected this thing to be so expensive, and he only had 800 taels of silver at the moment.
Since his uncle, the queen, was robbed, his mother subsidized his uncle, and he spent so much money on treatment last time,
With so many people to spend at home, his little treasury has never been filled.
He had to buy it now, because if he did, he would have no more money. He saw the lackeys' eyes shining and their words of envy. And the shopkeeper's expectant eyes and constant flattery...
Princess Jiaoyang gritted her teeth, took out the banknotes and said with a pained look;
"Please help me pack it..."
"Good Le!"
The shopkeeper was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling. He received the banknotes and immediately packed them up by hand.
"Please keep it..."
The follower immediately stepped forward and hugged him.
The rest of the people saw other cute ceramics, although they were not as pretty as the 12 animals, they still couldn't resist and spent dozens of taels to buy one or two.
The lackeys didn't notice Princess Jiaoyang's colorful face. They were chattering about the newly bought cups and were extremely happy.
Princess Jiaoyang listened to their voices and could no longer bear it and said in a cold voice;
"You guys go back first! I have something else to do..."
They were stunned for a moment, then they realized that Princess Jiaoyang looked very unhappy. After looking at each other, they decided not to offend him, nodded, and left...
After seeing the man leave, Princess Jiaoyang looked towards the place where Ji Xingle had just stood. She looked around but didn't see anyone, so she planned to return home feeling a little disappointed.
Ji Xingle was dragged away by Huangfu Xinyue angrily when Princess Jiaoyang was looking at ceramics.
Ji Xingle joked with a smile;
"Why are you in such a hurry? No one is competing with you..."
"What are you talking about? Can't you see that his eyes are almost glued to you?"
"I saw it! Don't be angry, people can see it but can't get it."
"Pfft~"
Huangfu Xinyue and his followers were both amused by Ji Xingle's words, and his followers agreed;
"Master Ji is right..."
Huangfu Xinyue smiled and pursed her lips, saying coquettishly;
"I just don't want him to see you..."
Ji Xingle accommodates the Tao;
"Okay, I won't show it to him. Next time he looks at me, I'll poke his eyes out, okay?"
The follower originally thought that Ji Xingle was a really nice person who would accommodate his master, until he heard Ji Xingle's words.
The followers silently retreated a few steps behind them. The two of them were indeed a perfect match. They fought and killed each other at every turn.
He still remembered that once Princess Jiaoyang came to provoke her master, and she almost got her mouth broken by something she said.
Thinking back on that bloody scene, I still feel a little scared.
Huangfu Xinyue saw the follower's actions, glared at him, and then quietly approached Ji Xingle;
"But you don't have to be so cruel, just ignore him when you see him..."
Seeing that he was saying one thing and thinking another, Ji Xingle smiled and said;
"Okay, I'll listen to you. I'll do whatever you say..."
?(*^^)o?*?o(^^*)?
The two of them were bubbling in the front, while their followers were covering their cheeks and saying sourly in the back;
“So sour...”
Ji Xingle and Huangfu Xinyue strolled around for a while, bought some small things, and as it was getting late, they had dinner together...
After dinner, Huangfu Xinyue left without waiting for Ji Xingle to see her off, saying that she had something to do.
Ji Xingle didn't say much when he saw this. He went back to his residence to pack up and then returned to Jicheng.
Ji Xingle gathered several people together, and they were delighted to see Ji Xingle;
"The wife..." (((o(*?▽?*)o)))
After Ji Xingle gave everyone a close hug, he said to them;
"I want to marry Xinyue and meet his father tomorrow..."
Hearing this, although they felt a little uncomfortable, they still smiled and joked;
"Congratulations to my wife for finding a handsome husband..."
"When you marry someone new, don't forget us old people!"
Seeing Dongfang Yiming's weird look, Ji Xingle reached out to him and took him into his arms;
"You are so old, but you still like to speak in a sarcastic way? What do you mean old man and new man?
No matter what, you are my husband. If you are too free, go home and take care of the children..."
Hearing this, Fu Leyu and the others covered their mouths and laughed secretly. Dongfang Yiming rolled his eyes at Ji Xingle and said coquettishly;
"Humph! Look! You're still saying I'm being sarcastic. You're a new bride, and you're already scolding me before you even get married.
If a new person really comes in, will I even be breathing wrong?"
