Reborn as a bride, pretending to be virtuous, the prince held his waist and regretted

"Keep it secret for now!" Gu Xiling pretended to be mysterious.

Zhou Jin frowned slightly, feeling unhappy. "Since you don't want to say it, then act quickly. Don't dawdle. Grandmother's health can't wait."

Gu Xiling did not answer, but looked at her maid, "Xiu Lan, have someone prepare the carriage. The prince and I are going out for a trip."

Zhou Jin was shocked and puzzled, "Gu, why are you going out if you don't want to persuade grandma?"

Gu Xiling smiled, her voice as sweet as the sound of a spring, "Of course I'm going to buy something, so that grandma will be willing to stretch her muscles when she sees it."

"If the prince is unwilling to go out, then I will report to mother and take the maid, Nanny Yuan, and the guards with me."

Seeing Gu Xiling so determined, Zhou Jin decided immediately, "I'll go out with you. I want to see what you buy!"

When Lai Fu brought the calligraphy over, he saw the prince and his wife getting on the carriage one after another.

Lai Fu quickly got on the carriage behind, along with Xiulan and Nanny Yuan.

"Xiu Lan, weren't you going to persuade the old lady? Why did you suddenly go out?" Lai Fu asked hurriedly.

He knew that when the Crown Prince met the Crown Princess, his behavior would be completely unpredictable.

Xiulan shook her head with an innocent look, "Brother Laifu, I don't know either. The Crown Prince's wife just told the Crown Prince to buy something that can help the old lady stretch her muscles."

Lai Fu and Nanny Yuan were both confused and had no idea what the Crown Prince's wife was thinking.

With a lot of questions in mind, I followed the Crown Prince's wife to the West Market.

In the carriage, Gu Xiling closed her eyes and rested, not speaking to Zhou Jin.

Zhou Jin also followed Gu Xiling's example and closed his eyes to rest, but soon he opened his eyes involuntarily and looked at Gu Xiling.

He opened his eyes, but was afraid of being caught by Gu Xiling, so he closed them again.

Open your eyes, and close them again.

Repeatedly.

Although Gu Xiling closed her eyes, she listened carefully and noticed that Zhou Jin was uneasy from his sometimes rapid and sometimes long breathing.

This is because of her, so nice!

At least it is not a stone that cannot be heated up, it’s just that this stone still has impurities.

When she cleans out the impurities in the stone, it will become beautiful jade and belong entirely to her.

There is an East Market in the capital, where products from Kangguo are sold.

Xishi, also known as Fanshi, specializes in selling foreign products.

Seeing the carriage stop at the West Market, Zhou Jin looked puzzled, "Gu, what exactly do you want to buy in the West Market?"

"Actually, I'm not sure if there is one here." Gu Xiling chuckled and put on the veil.

Zhou Jin got off the carriage first with a lot of doubts in his mind.

He turned around and was about to reach out to help Gu Xiling get off the carriage, but he didn't expect that Gu Xiling had already lifted up her skirt and jumped directly off the carriage.

Zhou Jin's heart suddenly tightened.

"Gu, what a disgrace!" Zhou Jin scolded, "I fell down, what should I do?"

Gu Xiling chuckled and said, "Don't worry, my lord. I was fine when I jumped down from a tree when I was a kid."

"You..." Zhou Jin was really afraid that Gu Xiling would be bold and jump down from the tree and break her leg.

Just as she was about to say something else, she saw Gu Xiling walking briskly into the West Market with her maid Xiulan, holding up her skirt.

Nanny Yuan followed closely behind, carefully observing the surrounding environment and ready to protect the Crown Prince's wife at any time.

"Madam, what should we buy?" Xiulan couldn't help but ask again.

Gu Xiling didn't keep the secret this time, "I remember when I was still in Jingyang Marquis's mansion, I once sneaked out to stroll around the West Market."

"There is a shop run by a Hu people. They say they have seeds shipped from thousands of miles away. The yield is extremely high and the taste is excellent!"

"Although I didn't eat them, the seeds were golden, like golden jade."

"I didn't have any money at the time, so I failed to buy it. When I got back to the mansion, I was locked up and never had a chance to get out again."

Xiulan was skeptical. "Even if I bought the seeds, it's just what the merchant said. It doesn't mean they will produce a high yield."

"Even if a lot of food can be grown, the old lady may not be willing to farm!"

Zhou Jin, who was standing behind, also heard this. He didn’t think Gu Xiling could convince her grandmother this time.

Gu Xiling smiled, and the smile on her lips became more and more obvious, "Then let's wait and see!"

The Hu people look different from the people in the Central Plains, they have a stronger body odor, and their hair is of various colors, mostly curly.

Their eyes are not black either, but have deep eye sockets, thick eyebrows and big eyes.

He has a lot of beard and body hair and a strong body odor.

The things that people came to Kangguo to do business and brought back from their hometown were mostly spices and gems, which were small and of high value.

The entire West City was filled with an indescribable smell.

Although Zhou Jin seldom came to the West Market, he looked down on barbaric things and thought most of them were crude and indecent.

At this moment, he was even more frowned by the unpleasant smell.

If Gu Xiling hadn't kept moving forward, Zhou Jin would have gone back long ago.

When they arrived at a gem shop, Gu Xiling saw that the boss was still there, so she asked softly, "Boss, do you guys keep saying that you can get 500 kilograms of seeds per mu?"

The shop owner was dressed in Kangguo costume, with his curly hair tied up with a crown. His long beard was shaved off, leaving only the beard above his mouth.

However, this man had thick hair and his face was covered with newly grown dark stubble.

"My name is Wu Mu. Madam, please wait a moment. I will have someone bring it to you right away."

That bag of seeds is actually their food rations.

However, many sailors died during this sea voyage, and there were two sacks left uneaten.

When they arrived in Kangguo, they decisively refused to eat the rice and noodles that tasted better.

No one believed what he said about the high-yield seeds, and no one was willing to try to grow them, so they were thrown into the warehouse.

Finally, a young lady wanted to buy it, but she had no money.

I waited for her to go back and get the money, but she never showed up.

I didn't expect that when we met again, the girl had already married.

When Wu Mu saw Zhou Jin's extraordinary clothes and noble demeanor, he knew that he was of noble birth. He did not dare to be careless and agreed carefully.

After a while, four servants came out carrying two sacks full of seeds.

Ebony untied the rope herself and took out the dry, plump yellow seeds. "Madam, please check them. They are all excellent."

Zhou Jin also came over to see. Although he was born into a noble family, he was not lazy or ignorant.

He was sure he had never seen it before, it was a new seed.

"Boss, how much is it?" Gu Xiling asked with a smile, "Give me the real price, don't lie to me."

If the other party was a merchant, Ebony might ask for a high price and bargain with the other party, but he didn't dare to do that now.

Especially when he saw Zhou Jin's aloof and noble temperament, which was incompatible with Xishi and seemed like an official, Wu Mu would never dare to ask for an exorbitant price.

"We transported this seed from the far east over a long distance, and it took several months on the ship. Therefore, this seed is precious and rare, and we are not selling it at the price of grain."

Gu Xiling listened to the heavily accented Chinese and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Boss, just follow the price of seeds. You don't need to give a long speech. Just tell me the price."

The shopkeeper held up five fingers.

"Five taels?"

"Fifty taels?"

The shopkeeper looked cunning and said, "Fifty taels of silver."

Gu Xiling turned around, glared at Zhou Jin, and said, "If you don't manage a household, you don't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil, and salt are! Even if they are seeds, they are not made of gold, how can they be so expensive?"

Zhou Jin was upset and shut up after arguing with Gu Xiling.
