Devil’s Advent

Chapter 396 Gifts

Guest officer, your face.

Guest officer, here are your five bowls of noodles, and I'll bring you another five bowls of noodles once they're out of the pan.

The maidservant and Fan Li sat face to face at the noodle shop table.

The noodles are scallion noodles, without toppings, but the gluten is good, and the soup is delicious. It is very enjoyable to eat.

And because the noodles in the big pot of the noodle shop are also filled with wontons, a few pieces of wonton skins can be found in the noodle bowl from time to time. If you are lucky, you can still have a whole small wonton, which is also a kind of richness.

Fan Li eats the noodles very fast, because he has a big mouth, and when he inserts, picks, and turns the chopsticks, basically all the noodles in the bowl are skewered, and then they are sent to his mouth all at once.

After chewing and swallowing, pick up the noodle bowl and drink the soup and some remaining noodles.

Dum!

Once the empty bowl is put away, move on to the next bowl.

The sword maid's taste is much more elegant, eating a small mouthful of noodles, and then drinking a mouthful of soup, it has the meaning of being a lady.

Occasionally,

The maidservant also looked up at the street outside, there was a mule and horse market outside, crowded with people.

Along the way, ever since we got out of the snow customs, it has been lonely;

However, the farther west you go, the closer you get to Yandi, the smell of fireworks begins to recover slowly. When you reach the outskirts of Yanjing, it really gives people a feeling that the capital is in sight.

The maidservant of the sword is a dry person, and she has also stayed in the capital of the Gan country. In her opinion, the capital of the Qian country must be more refined than Yanjing. Freehand romantic feeling.

But here in Yanjing, there is a kind of heroic atmosphere, which is not only reflected in the people here, even when the animals here snore, they seem to have a kind of arrogance and arrogance.

My first master once told me with a smile,

He said that the people in Shangjing of Qian Kingdom like to be humble and reserved on the surface, while smiling at you and teasing you in the bottom of your heart that you are a country scumbag, just like a girl in a brothel, holding a red silk to cover her mouth and laughing, In fact, it is calling you vulgar.

And the people of Yan people in Yanjing will not look down on you and think you are a troublemaker, because they themselves are proud of being a troublemaker.

Fan Li has already finished his fifth bowl of noodles.

While waiting for Xiao Er to deliver the remaining five bowls, he looked up at the sword maid and said:

It's going to be cold.

The sword maid lowered her head and continued to eat noodles.

ate noodles,

Fan Li pulled the sword maid out of the noodle shop.

Fan Li tied a small cushion on his right shoulder,

The sword maid sat up.

This way, they didn't ride horses, the sword maid was sitting there, and Fan Li ran over.

In Fan Li's words,

horse riding,

Trouble.

keep going west,

Before sunset, they entered the capital.

After finding an inn, Fan Li voluntarily squatted outside the door, while the sword maid was taking a bath inside.

After waiting for a while,

The sword maid pushed open the door, her hair was a little wet and draped over her shoulders.

In the past two years, the sword maidservant has also grown up a lot. Before, she was not only born with a sword embryo, but also a beauty embryo. Now, she can't be called a beauty embryo, because she is already a little beauty.

The age is still a little embarrassing, but it is already within the acceptable range of some beasts.

Go shopping? Fan Li asked.

When you come to the capital, you have to go shopping.

The sword maid nodded,

Immediately said:

I want to eat roast duck.

...

Quande Building, box.

The maidservant put it down after eating a few mouthfuls of the roast duck, not bothering to wrap the pancakes.

Seeing this, Fan Li asked:

Unappetizing?

The sword maid nodded and said, The meat is old.

The maidservant of the sword can endure hardships, and since she can remember, she has followed the second sword of the Qian Kingdom to travel north and south, often living a life without a meal, and then followed Zheng Fan, life is much better, not to mention Jinyi You can eat jade, but if you want to eat chicken, you can eat chicken. If you want to eat fish, you can also eat fish.

The roast duck is not delicious, because I came here to eat it, so I was disappointed, so I didn't want to eat it.

Fan Li nodded, grabbed a handful of roast duck with his left hand, and a handful of pancakes with his right hand, and stuffed them into his mouth one by one.

Subsequently,

The two went downstairs.

The sword maid was still sitting on Fan Li's shoulder,

The little girl likes the feeling of sitting here, because Fan Li is very tall, and sitting on Fan Li's shoulders, she is the tallest person on this street.

Fan Li asked her if she wanted to eat candied haws,

The sword maid said disdainfully:

Something a child would eat.

Then,

Ask Fan Li to buy the straw sticks with candied haws.

Fan Li held a straw stick in his right hand, and the sword maid could reach it, eating happily.

The two just walked around like this,

Except for candied haws, I didn't buy anything else, just looking at it.

And Fan Li is a man who can run from Xuehaiguan to Yanjing with his legs, so he won't feel sore and numb at this time.

Baixiang Street in Yanjing City is sweeping the water, and red lanterns symbolizing festivals are also hung on the eaves of the merchants on both sides.

In other words, three days later, the wedding of the sixth prince of Dayan will be held here.

I didn't take the official road, and I didn't take the main street. Instead, I chose this very narrow road.

Compared with the interrupted wedding of the prince, in terms of grandeur and scale, it can be described as heaven and earth.

There were rumors in Beijing that the sixth prince of Dayan had never been liked by His Majesty, that's why he was treated this way. There were even rumors that the sixth prince married a daughter from a civilian family.

Look, look, if it's really pleasing, how can you marry an ordinary girl from a folk family?

Most of the common people in Beijing would not think that the prince marrying a daughter from a civilian family would make them feel honored, but would feel pity for the prince instead.

Fan Li and Sword Maid also came to this street.

The sword maid has already eaten the candied haws,

From the bag Fan Li carried behind his back, he took out a slippery thing like a fish bubble, and took it out.

mouth to mouth

Start blowing.

The fish bubble was blown up and became a ball.

The sword maid pinched the bayonet position with her fingers, and asked while playing with the ball:

Why is this stuff used? It's just for fun.

Fan Li replied:

A tadpole catcher.

Catch tadpoles? How do you catch them? Then you come and catch them with me, okay?

Fan Li shook his head and said:

I can't catch it.

It's okay, I'll help you.

Fan Li frowned slightly,

Then shook his head firmly,

road:

Need not.

For Fan Li, explaining the usage of the ancient version of Biyuntao and popularizing physiological knowledge such as science is really a huge project for Fan Li.

Since it was troublesome, Fan Li didn't intend to explain it.

Why are you bringing this thing here?

The maidservant knew that in Fan Li's luggage, there were some gadgets in one bag, and silver in the other bag.

It's for the sixth prince. Fan Li replied.

Sent by the Lord?

yes.

Immediately afterwards,

Fan Li replied again:

Now, there is no need to send it.

Because of the long distance between Yanjing and Xuehaiguan, there is a big time difference between correspondence.

When Zheng Fan received a letter from Little Six saying that he was going to get married, he sent Fan Li to go to Yanjing to attend the ceremony instead of himself.

Because the infrastructure construction work of Xueguan has come to an end, A Ming is busy with the workshop, and the other demon kings also have their own work, so only Fan Li is now vacant, so he was sent out.

The sword maid clamored to come together,

finally followed,

It is said that Lord Juggernaut was very angry when he found out that his apprentice had been kidnapped.

However, what Zheng Fan didn't expect was that the daughter of the He family was already pregnant, so this special fish bubble would be useless.

By the way, the Lord gave you money to buy gifts in the capital, isn't it too casual?

Fan Li nodded and said:

The lord said that they have a good relationship, so come as you can.

Xueguan could send a gift-giving team to come over with beating gongs and drums, but it is really unnecessary.

On the one hand, it will cause a lot of unnecessary troubles, and on the other hand, the distance is far away, which is not cost-effective.

Fan Li came here by himself, brought money, and bought them in Yanjing City, which can be described as really convenient and fast.

Then what should we buy? We're going to give gifts tomorrow, right?

Um.

Buying antiques? Buying calligraphy and painting? Buying jade?

Fan Li shook his head and said:

The lord said to buy some down-to-earth things.

Down to earth?

Yes, the Lord also said that if you want to see sincerity at a glance, you must be eye-catching and stand out from the crowd.

Well, what do you want to buy?

...

There is a new pork shop opened on Baixiang Street, and the owner of the shop is a foreigner. In fact, it is really not a foreigner, because Nan'an County is also in Tiancheng County. Those in the farms outside the city are also foreigners.

The stall owner's surname is He, and his son is a helper.

The small business has just started, so it's not booming, but the stall owner is friendly and good at doing business.

Hey, hey, Chu, that lantern is a little further to the right, right, right, it's upright, it's upright.

Old He Tou was instructing his son to hang up the red lantern.

A shop selling dry goods next to her was a pungent widow proprietress, leaning on the door panel while eating melon seeds and jokingly said:

Oh, I said, Old He, look at you, you are so caring, you don't know, you think His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince is marrying your daughter.

He Chu who was hanging the lantern smiled foolishly when he heard the words.

Old He Tou said:

It's the first time for outsiders to come to Beijing to see this kind of royal excitement. It's more or less for fun. I used to be in my hometown, but I didn't come across such a big event.

That's right, but ah, slowly, you will get used to it, and the days will be long in the future.

That is, that is.

Old He turned around and was about to sharpen his knife again when he saw a figure like an iron tower appearing in front of his booth.

Old He raised his head,

I have some pain in my neck,

Because the person in front of him is really too tall.

The widow boss next to him stared straight at him, and at the same time subconsciously licked his lips with his tongue.

This big tall man just stood in front of the booth,

On its shoulders, there is a young girl sitting.

Here, guest officer, do you want to buy pork?

Old Hetou asked with some trepidation.

Fan Li nodded, and turned to look at the sword maid sitting on his shoulder.

The sword maid threw out a small bag of silver and landed on Old Hetou's chopping board with a thump.

Buy three big fat pigs, tie them with red strings, and wear them with red flowers. We use them as gifts.
