Chapter 75 Green Phoenix Hosta(1/2)
It was almost the New Year's Eve when he returned to the capital, and workaholic Pei Wuyan no longer thought about business trips and stayed at home to celebrate the New Year.
Although Pei Wuyan's Changyunzhai is not big, it can be regarded as the most humane place in the entire Dali Temple. It can be regarded as a home.
Especially after Yu Qingfeng moved in, Changyunzhai became more lively with her chattering.
In the past few days, Yu Qingfeng followed Butler Tao out to buy new year's goods, and really saw the prosperity of the capital city.
But after all, she was going out with a mission, so it was a pity that she couldn't wander around as she pleased. She didn't have many orders, so she couldn't buy and buy as she pleased, which was even more regrettable.
There are almost no gadgets from her daughter's house in Yu Qingfeng's room, and she doesn't even have any new clothes for the New Year. She has to set aside a day to reward herself.
Yu Qingfeng thought this way and turned her attention to Pei Wuyan.
During lunch, Yu Qingfeng saw the opportunity and started chatting.
"Master Pei, Master Lin and Master Lian have all gone home to celebrate the New Year. Aren't you going home?"
Pei Wuyan lowered his head to pick up the vegetables, "This is my home."
"Aren't you going to bring your relatives over to celebrate the New Year together?"
"No relatives."
Yu Qingfeng pursed her lips, she was going to be talked about to death that day.
"What about you?" Pei Wuyan seemed to be reminded and suddenly thought of this question.
"I, I... this is my home too, and I don't have any relatives - here. Mr. Pei, I treat you as a relative. On the day of family reunion, when we are together, it can be regarded as a reunion."
Yu Qingfeng smeared honey on her little mouth.
"No need to show your courtesy," Pei Wuyan asked lightly without raising his head, "What do you want?"
Yu Qingfeng shook her head helplessly. Whether it was ancient times or modern times, whether it was artistic creation or reality, how come men don't understand women's hearts so much?
Shopping! Yu Qingfeng wanted Pei Wuyan to accompany her to go shopping. Of course, Pei Wuyan would pay for it.
"I want a New Year's gift."
Since Pei Wuyan didn't understand, she would open it for him.
"Didn't I impose a ban on you?"
"That's different. It's what I deserve for my hard work. What I want now is not money, but a gift. It's a gift that Mr. Pei gave me as a friend and relative."
Pei Wuyan was listless and seemed too lazy to talk to Yu Qingfeng, "Okay, let's go to the market after eating."
Yu Qingfeng had already done her homework with Butler Tao, so she took Pei Wuyan directly to the most popular tailor shop in the most prosperous market.
Yu Qingfeng chose the best fabrics and her favorite styles, tailored them to suit her needs, and ordered a total of twenty sets of new clothes for spring, summer, autumn, and winter.
Pei Wuyan looked at Yu Qingfeng with great interest and was stunned.
"Master Pei," Yu Qingfeng jumped in front of Pei Wuyan and waved in front of his eyes, "What are you thinking about?"
Pei Wuyan came back to his senses, with a look of sadness on his face, "Remembering that I used to accompany you like this... Mom, she stayed with me all day long. I lived like years and felt weak all over, but she lamented that time flies so fast and she doesn't feel tired."
Yu Qingfeng didn't know how to comfort her because Pei Wuyan had just said during lunch that he had no relatives.
Since you don’t know what to say, just do something.
What to do?
Since Pei Wuyan mentioned his mother, he probably missed her.
Yu Qingfeng stood and caressed the sitting Pei Wuyan's head with her hand.
Pei Wuyan didn't react for a while, and when he did, he couldn't believe it. He grabbed Yu Qingfeng's wrist.
"Yu Qingfeng!"
"Ah, I, I just want to be comforted..."
When Pei Wuyan exerted force, Yu Qingfeng lost her balance and fell towards Pei Wuyan. In order to prevent her from bowing down to Pei Wuyan again, she chose to turn around in time and sit on Pei Wuyan's lap.
Yu Qingfeng succeeded.
It's just that something seems wrong. It's not the same as the routine in movies and TV shows.
Yu Qingfeng turned around too sharply just now, instead of sitting sideways on Pei Wuyan's lap, she sat upright - with the back of her head facing Pei Wuyan's face.
This posture is extremely unconventional and indescribably embarrassing.
Pei Wuyan must have felt the awkwardness of this posture and quickly stood up.
Yu Qingfeng staggered forward a few steps and finally stood still.
"I bought so much, you should be satisfied and go back."
Pei Wuyan left after saying that.
Yu Qingfeng hurriedly caught up and said, "No, Mr. Pei, there is a sideshow in the market ahead, go and see it."
Pei Wuyan was about to walk back, so Yu Qingfeng hugged Pei Wuyan's arm and said, "Mr. Pei, the clothes are all custom-made, and my hands are empty today. Let's watch the juggling, it's very fun."
"Don't look." Pei Wuyan walked stubbornly towards Dali Temple.
Yu Qingfeng held her arms and pushed back.
"You forgot, last time we asked you to watch a magic trick, you said you wouldn't watch it, but you missed a lot."
Pei Wuyan's body drive failed, allowing Yu Qingfeng to change direction.
The vaudeville performance made the audience member Yu Qingfeng cheer until his voice became hoarse. She wanted to stir up the atmosphere and influence Pei Wuyan, who was always in a slightly sad mood, and divert his attention from missing his family even more during the holidays, but he couldn't take it at all.
move.
With Yu Qingfeng's encouragement, Pei Wuyan only had to make a "good" lip sync. In order to make up for his incompetence as an audience, he had to reward him with a little more silver.
After watching the sideshow, Pei Wuyan once again proposed to go home.
Yu Qingfeng couldn't resist this time, so she could only follow him obediently.
Returning the way we came, we saw a different scenery.
"Tou Hu, there was no Tou Hu stall just now." Yu Qingfeng pulled Pei Wuyan over.
As soon as she walked to the pot tossing stall, Yu Qingfeng saw the ring trapping stall next to the pot tossing stall.
"Ring, ring!"
"It's just a trap, there's no need to be so excited." Pei Wuyan still couldn't cheer up.
Yu Qingfeng jumped up to the stall and watched with interest as the stall owner arranged various items.
Pei Wuyan followed with a lazy pace, and did not shy away from the stall owner, telling the truth:
"The reason why the kettle and hoops are out doing business at this time is because it is a little dark now, and the customers' vision will be affected to some extent, but they don't know it. The customers' vision affects the accuracy of their hands, so they can make money."
The stall owner who was bending down to place the prizes immediately stood up and gave Pei Wuyan a big eye roll.
"Sir, why do you treat a gentleman with a villain's heart? The reason why I go out at this time is because I have to earn a living in the back kitchen of the tavern during the day."
The stall owner is a short man with a mustache and a glib tone. He looks like a profiteer.
Pei Wuyan was too lazy to talk to the stall owner and was about to call Yu Qingfeng and leave.
But Yu Qingfeng's eyes had already fallen on a wooden box in the center of the last row of prizes. The lid of the wooden box was open, and an emerald green hosta lay on the milky white satin surface.
That hosta was crystal clear and dazzling green. The most important thing was that its shape made Yu Qingfeng very happy. It was a flying phoenix with its wings spread.
"Master Pei, Master Pei, I want that hosta and the blue phoenix. This is just for me." Yu Qingfeng was very excited, "This is your New Year's gift to me."
Pei Wuyan only glanced at the hosta and said to the stall owner, "How much does it cost?"
The stall owner raised his eyebrows and mustache at the same time, rolled his eyes, and said, "Not selling."
Pei Wuyan frowned, then smiled knowingly: "There is nothing that is not for sale in this capital, there is only a price that is not for sale. Please set a price."
The stall owner looked Pei Wuyan up and down. Seeing his frail scholar appearance, his smile grew thicker and he shook his head and said:
"Sir, I don't sell the things here. If you win, you'll get it for free. The minimum price for these bamboo rings is ten pieces, with one or two grains of silver."
Pei Wuyan took out a twenty-tael banknote and said, "If you don't want to use it, just buy it. Do you want to sell it?"
The stall owner also had a stubborn temper. Although his eyes lit up when he first saw the banknote, he quickly made a calculation in his mind and finally concluded: "If you don't want to sell it, I will give it away. Do you want to use it or not?"
Yu Qingfeng snickered, both of them had stubborn tempers, and they got into a fight.
Pei Wuyan is just a guy who only trains his chest and abdominal muscles. His hands are not accurate at all, he is not good at traps, and he doesn't want to embarrass himself in public.
The stall owner saw that Pei Wuyan was rich and didn't want to embarrass himself, so he wanted to raise the price. It was rare to meet such a scapegoat. If he didn't kill him, he would be sorry for the whole family.
"Forget it if you don't want to sell it." Pei Wuyan deliberately shook the banknote in front of the stall owner and put it back.
The stall owner let out a long sigh and sympathized with Yu Qingfeng, "Girl, girl, you are trusting me. Now you have to refuse such a small request. It can be seen that in the future..."
"Ten of them first." Pei Wuyan interrupted the stall owner. After pocketing the banknotes, he took out another tael of silver.
Yu Qingfeng's eyes widened, she was even more surprised than the stall owner, and she hurriedly ran to Pei Wuyan to please and thank her.
"Master Pei..."
Before Yu Qingfeng could finish speaking, Pei Wuyan had already thrown out the first circle.
