At this time, Cheng Dayu was preparing things for the stall.

Seeing Cheng Shubai coming, I felt fresh and asked, "Third brother, why are you here?"

Cheng Shubai was a little embarrassed on his face and didn't know how to speak.

Cheng Dayu said directly: "Third brother, we are all a family. If you have anything to say, please speak directly."

Cheng Shubai then said: "I made Xiao Xi angry. My eldest brother usually makes my sister-in-law happy, so I came here to get some advice. I want to know how to make my wife happy."

Listening to these words, Cheng Dayu chuckled: "Third brother, I originally thought you knew how to read, but I didn't expect you to be enlightened now."

Cheng Dayu's smile made Cheng Shubai's already thin skin look like a cooked shrimp.

"Brother, stop teasing me and give me some advice!"

Cheng Dayu coughed, his face immediately returned to normal, and asked: "Why did you make Xiao Xi angry?"

"This..." Cheng Shubai couldn't say anything. After struggling for a moment, he said, "I don't know what to say. Anyway, Xiao Xi is angry now."

"Okay, okay, I won't ask anymore." Cheng Dayu saw the anxiety in Cheng Shubai's eyebrows and hurriedly gave him some advice: "Go to the market to buy some things that women like, and when you send them over, say two more words Just a nice word and her anger will go away."

"What are the things that women like?" Cheng Shubai was focused on reading and had not studied these things.

Cheng Dayu reluctantly suggested: "It's just rouge, gouache! Gold hairpins, silver hairpins, or brightly colored cloth will all do."

How come his younger brother doesn’t even understand these things.

Cheng Shubai nodded and remembered what Cheng Dayu said word for word.

"Thank you, brother. I'll go to the market right now." After Cheng Shubai finished speaking, he turned around and left.

Cheng Dayu immediately stopped him: "Third brother, wait a minute, wait a minute, don't worry, do you have money when you go to the market?"

After hearing this, Cheng Shubai shook his head honestly. He was so anxious that he almost forgot to bring some silver.

Cheng Dayu took out a money bag from his body and handed it to him, saying, "There are five taels of silver in it. You can use it first."

Cheng Shubai put away the money bag and said to Cheng Dayu: "Brother, this is what I borrowed from you temporarily, and I will definitely pay you back later!"

Cheng Dayu patted him on the shoulder and said, "We'll talk about the money later. The most important thing for you right now is to prepare for autumn."

After hearing these words, Cheng Shubai was filled with emotion, and the money bag in his hand suddenly seemed to weigh a thousand catties.

He was the youngest son in the family, and the fortune teller said that he would be a general or prime minister in the future, so from the moment he was born, his parents and two older brothers had taken great care of him.

Whatever delicious food or useful things are available at home should be kept close to him first. He only needs to study hard, and his parents and his two brothers will find ways to help him with other things.

He has never been worried about his livelihood, nor does he know how a bag of rice in the granary can bend his spine.

Now that he is married, he still has to ask for money from his elder brother.

This made Cheng Shubai feel extremely ashamed. He squeezed his money bag tightly and secretly vowed to pass the exam. After he passed the exam, he would think of some ways to earn some money to supplement his family's income.

"Brother, I'm going to the market first."

"Okay, go quickly." Cheng Dayu waved to him.

market.

Cheng Shubai hadn't been here for a long time. He walked towards the Xiang Pavilion without saying a word.

The Xiang Pavilion specializes in selling women's items, including rouge, gouache, hairpins, sachets and other accessories and gadgets that women like.

Usually the people who enter the incense attic are women, and no matter how bad the situation is, men will always go in with the women.

It's rare to see a man like Cheng Shubai come in alone.

Therefore, as soon as he entered the Xiang Pavilion, he attracted a lot of attention, especially his handsome appearance, which made some young ladies unable to take their eyes away.

Cheng Shubai was only thinking about picking out gifts for Su Xiaoxi, and turned a blind eye to these adoring looks.

He suddenly saw an apricot blossom golden hairpin, which he thought was particularly suitable for Su Xiaoxi.

Feeling happy, he hurriedly walked over.

As a result, as soon as he picked up the golden hairpin, he was stopped by someone calling: "This young master."

Cheng Shubai looked towards the speaker, who was a woman who looked like a maid. She looked at the gold hairpin in Cheng Shubai's hand and said, "My young lady took a fancy to this gold hairpin first. This young man should look at the others!" "

After saying that, she stretched out her hand to grab it.

Cheng Shubai avoided it deftly and replied: "I got this gold hairpin first. I'm sorry that I can't give it away. Please choose another one, Miss."

When the maid saw his refusal, her little face wrinkled up and she refused to give in and said, "No, my lady likes this golden hairpin!"

At this moment, a gentle voice came from behind the maid: "Taorui, don't be rude!"

Cheng Shubai followed the sound and saw a woman in gorgeous clothes walking over with a light gait.

When Taorui saw that the person coming was her young lady, she quickly saluted and called her young lady. Then she pointed at Cheng Shubai and said as if complaining: "He robbed young lady's things..."
