In the next ten days, the group set out at dawn, rested around noon, and continued on their way after noon. They walked for more than ten days and finally arrived in Kyoto at the end of the seventh lunar month.

If it hadn't been delayed for a while in Yucheng due to the earth dragon turning over, it would have arrived in mid-July.

Entering the gate of Kyoto, Li Haitang couldn't believe her eyes. Kyoto was more prosperous than she thought.

No matter whether there is war in the north or famine in the south, the people of Kyoto don't feel it at all. They live and work in peace and contentment, with hawkers everywhere and prosperity.

The streets were wide, lined with merchants, and crowded with people. They waited for more than an hour just to queue up for their carriage to enter the city.

While waiting, a woman wearing a straw hat came over to sell steamed buns, flower rolls, steamed buns, tea, and various exquisite cakes.

Li Haitang bought several kinds of petal snacks, some of which are made of glutinous rice, and the petals are filled with jujube paste, which has a delicate taste. In addition, there are also delicious sticky cakes, donkey rolling, with sesame filling, salt and pepper filling, and white sugar filling. , mung bean filling, bean paste filling, five-nut filling, everything you want.

"Wufu, I do think of my cousin."

Li Haitang stuttered and looked out the window with one hand on her cheek. She had eaten these snacks before, thanks to her cousin Ruan Mianmian. Although Ruan Mianmian had a proud temperament, she still felt a little regretful when she left.

The cousin's body did not enter the Ruan family in the end, and because of this, Ruan Pingzhi and the Ruan family completely broke up.

He had fantasized about what it would be like to come to Kyoto countless times, but now that he stepped into the gate of Kyoto, Li Haitang didn't want to go to that impersonal mansion at all.

But she will not forget Ruan's last wish. It will not be too late to go after she reunites with her younger brother Li Jinhu.

"Sister Haitang, I want to find my uncle and aunt."

After arriving in Kyoto, Xiangli immediately cheered up. She wanted to go to Songhe Academy to inquire about news and find someone.

For such a long time, I still don’t know where the uncles and aunts of the Yang family are, and whether they can withstand such a heavy blow.

"Sister Xiangli, logically I shouldn't stop you."

Li Haitang thought for a while and felt that it was very inappropriate to pass by like this with a black eye. Xiangli is not as good as her. She has no foundation in Beijing. Where can she find someone?

If she really asked someone from Songhe Academy, they would probably avoid her and not say a word.

"But……"

Xiangli bit her lip. What Li Haitang said made sense, but she really didn't know what to do.

She had no relatives in Kyoto and no one to help her. She was lucky enough to meet Li Haitang along the way. She didn't want to drag her savior into the water.

"Come back to Zhuangzi with me to sort things out first. When everything is settled properly, I will help you find someone."

Li Haitang calculated that Xiangli was a good person with a conscience and worthy of friendship. The Holy Mother was not a bad person, and he was much better than that person with bad intentions.

She also wanted to go to Songhe Academy to take over Ji Qiu's wine shop. Furthermore, she knew Zhang Ruyi's father Zhang Zheng. It was Zhang Zheng who helped call the shots in Yang Xu's case. Perhaps someone from the Yang family was the one who exposed the truth. news.

"Sister Haitang, thank you so much. Without your help, I really don't know what I would have done."

Xiangli wanted to kneel down and kowtow, but Li Haitang stopped her.

She was selfish and reluctant to part with Mrs. Wang's cooking skills. If they were separated, there would be no delicious food. She used to think that Aunt Yu's cooking skills were very good. Sure enough, there would be no harm if there was no comparison.

I heard that Xiangli was going with her, and she was the happiest Wufu. She was simply attracted by Mrs. Wang's craftsmanship. Whatever she made was delicious, and the steamed buns were stronger than others.

After finally arriving in Kyoto, I definitely wanted to do some shopping after entering the city.

It was still early, so Xiao Lingchuan stopped the carriage at the carriage house and sat in the tea shed to wait. Li Haitang led the women's army to set off and began to sweep the shop.

The clothes in Kyoto are different from those in the North. There are many clothes that can be pinched at the waist to show off a woman's figure. Her eldest sister saw a lot of ladylike skirts, six-panel skirts, and horse-face pleated skirts, which looked very eye-catching.

After arriving in Kyoto, in order not to be ridiculed as a country bumpkin, Li Haitang first had to understand Kyoto's fashion. She specially found a larger cloth shop. She did not see any rich ladies, so most of the people who came to choose fabrics were servants.

"Oh, he's still wearing a gold hairpin, so he looks like he's from the countryside!"

"That's right, so tacky!"

As soon as Li Haitang entered the door, she heard two people talking quietly. She was embarrassed, thanks to the coral hairpin she was wearing as a gift from the savage husband.

A hairpin is very valuable and very rare. The shopkeeper and the waiter were also the ones who watched the dishes being served. They greeted them warmly and invited them to a private room on the second floor.

In Beidi, Buzhuang did not have elegant rooms. Li Haitang did not expect that she would be treated like this. However, the reason why she did not let others look down upon her was because of her low-key luxury.

The coral hairpin is worth ten thousand taels of silver, the bracelet is Xiao Lingchuan's treasure chest, and the beeswax earrings, together, are not to be underestimated.

Before coming to Kyoto, Zhang Ruyi reminded her that the streets were full of snobs and she had to be tall and dignified when going to a store to buy things. Even though Li Haitang didn't like to wear too many jewelry, she was determined not to look shabby.

Otherwise, meeting someone who looks down upon others will still affect your mood.

Zhang Ruyi was right. Speaking from experience, as soon as she entered the door, she was greeted politely by the waiter, who not only served her tea and water, but also gave her a picture album.

"Look, these are our latest styles. Whatever you like, we have embroiderers here. We can make the finished product for you in two or three days."

The waiter was respectful and introduced the best materials in the shop. "If you have a craftsman, you can take them back and sew them."

"Okay, these are all in one set, and I'll leave them to you."

Li Haitang is a rich man, with a straight face. He wears the latest styles of skirts in Kyoto, and has more than a dozen sets.

The materials and handwork cost more than a thousand taels.

My heart is bleeding, but I have to pretend to be calm and calm on the face. From now on, I will rarely have to visit the Ruan family or go out to discuss business. If someone looks down on me, it will be a big deal.

Not only did she buy it, but she also needed her own savage husband and bean bag. She bought the fabric and planned to sew it with her own hands.

"Mama Yu, Ginkgo, Wufu, you all choose a few sets."

As her servant, she couldn't be too tacky and embarrass her, so she gritted her teeth and only chose second-rate materials for another sum of money.

The waiter was stunned and stared at him. He was happy to spend money, but he could be so generous to his servants. It was rare to see him. Even a well-known maid from a high-ranking family could only dress with a few people. In comparison, it's even a little inferior. Li Haitang is very heroic, rich and willful! Thinking about that box of random jewelry, I don't feel distressed at all.
