"Sister Ye Gege, Xiao Yu, what did you say just now? You laughed so happily."

Xiao Meier ran over with a box of rouge in one hand and asked. He had all kinds of rouge on his face, which looked a little funny.

I turned my head and looked at Xiao Yu. She grinned and said, "Mei Er, we are discussing... what gift should I give you when you leave Gama City?"

Xiao Meier glanced at me and I smiled at her. She lowered her head shyly and said coyly, "No, it's good to come here. You don't have to worry about preparing any gifts for me..."

I smiled slightly, did not answer the question, looked at the box in her hand, and asked instead, "Mei Er, you have already picked it."

She nodded slightly, held up the two boxes of rouge in her hand, and asked, "Ye Gege, which one do you think looks better?"

This question is not easy to answer.

I looked at it with my eyes and saw that the two boxes were only slightly different in color. How could I tell which one was better?

"If you like it, just buy it all."

She frowned immediately and took back the two boxes of rouge in her hands with some disappointment. She turned around and pulled Qing Lin to buy the more than 20 boxes of rouge and gouache that she had just seen and liked.

I stepped forward to pay, and behind me, Mei Er took out two more boxes of rouge, handed them to Xiao Yu, and said:

"Sister Xiao Yu, I think this is quite suitable for you, please keep it."

Looking up at Xiao Yu's unpainted face, she saw that it was not her daughter's beauty, but that she was brave. She couldn't help but say:

"Sister Xiao Yu, you still have to put on some light makeup. You look like this... you won't be able to get married in the future."

Xiao Yu couldn't help laughing, stretched out his hand to push away the two boxes of rouge, and said disdainfully, "What do I want a man to do?"

"Who said all women have to get married? I won't be able to live the same life alone from now on."

"But..."

After hearing Xiao Yu's unreasonable words, she frowned slightly and was about to say something else. Xiao Yu interrupted her with a wave of her hand and said impatiently:

"Xiao Nizi, if you have a man, you will teach me a lesson."

She glanced at the rouge box, looked at Xiao Meier's somewhat immature face, and said with a smile, "Canaan Academy is not a simple academy, it's very cruel inside."

"Instead of these rouge and gouache, I think you should prepare some Medicinal Pill and armor weapons!"

Xiao Meier was startled, and I frowned. Only then did I remember that the fight inside the Canaan Academy was indeed extremely fierce.

With a body as small as Mei Er, I'm afraid I'll only get beaten if I go there...

"Mei Er, let's go to Mitre Auction House and have a look."

I took a deep breath, and it seemed that I still had to go to Auction House to take a look and prepare some small items for self-defense for her.

Or, simply give her a Dragon Hunting Crossbow. Anyway, Xiao Family has more people than Canaan Academy. Although Dragon Hunting Crossbow is big, it is still enough for manpower to control...

The group exited Chen Jin's and continued towards Mitre Auction House.

On the way, Mei Er and Qing Lin were still chattering and discussing the rouge and gouache just now. Mostly Mei Er was saying that she was also a wealthy lady and had a lot of research in this field.

But Qing Lin, a little maid, was mostly listening, and she seemed to be confused and just kept nodding in agreement.

"Humph, you just refused to buy me armor. Now you are happy to buy her something."

Xiao Yu walked beside me, bared his teeth and said fiercely, "I want a share of the things you buy for her later!"

"Sister Xiao Yu, are you greedy too?"

I raised my eyebrows and gritted my teeth and said, "I promised to give you a pair of Tier 3 Magic Core Armor, why do you still want this or that?"

"I don't care!"

She crossed her arms and looked at the back of Xiao Meier in front of her. Her eyes were moving and she couldn't tell what she was thinking. She just gritted her teeth and said:

"I am this little girl's sister, you must buy me a copy! Otherwise, I will..."

She turned her head to look at me, grinned, and said, "Canaan Academy has countless geniuses, and many of them come from the Dou Emperor family. Hehe, I will introduce that little girl Mei Er to them."

The corner of my mouth twitched, and I stared at Xiao Yu. This guy really... lacks social beatings!

Although I'm not really worried about Xiao Meier falling in love with someone else, I'd rather not mess with this kind of nonsense.

Like some people, we are jealous and fight over such trivial matters every day. Isn't that what we do?

"Sister Xiao Yu, just put your heart in your stomach. As long as I have a share of Mei Er, I will definitely not lose your share!"

The thick Main Hall of white granite, the guards in heavy armor are heavily guarded, and the large banner at the top is fluttering in the wind - Mitre Auction House has not changed much from the last time I came here.

Even because the war was approaching, it was even more lively than usual, with people coming and going in an endless stream.

The person in charge is still Du'e Mitel, Xiao Yan has left Wutan City, Ya Fei has not left yet, and I don't know when Gama City will be transferred.

It should be soon.

I bought some small things for the two sisters Xiao Meier and Xiao Yu, including incense for concentration, incense for poisoning, and incense for comatose people...

There are also some Medicinal Pill and concealed weapons, which are just small and inexpensive items - big items still have to be purchased from the family Family Treasury, save what you can.

After leaving Mitre Auction House, I was not in a hurry to go back. First I went to an excellent Restaurant and had lunch.

Then, like before, I go to various stores to buy various things, such as jewelry and silk dresses. These are just things that this kind of woman... most women like.

Looking at Xiao Mei who was jumping for joy and Qing Lin with a faint smile, I glanced at Xiao Yu beside me and said helplessly:

"Sister Xiao Yu, you really don't want to go and see"

Xiao Yu stood leaning against the door, not bothering to answer at all. She just glanced at it casually, then clasped her fingers and began to dream about the armor I promised her.

"That armor should be better-looking. It's a battle armor worn by women. It has a slender shape and smooth lines. You don't want the heavy armor you men wear that looks like a big iron can."

I immediately sneered, crossed my arms, and said jokingly, "Sister Xiao Yu, I really mean that you don't like beauty, but you love beauty here..."

"Stop talking nonsense, just tell me, do you have this kind of armor at home?"

"Yes, yes, our Nalan Family has a big business. We can't find a set of armor for women in Family Treasury. I'll pick out the most beautiful and majestic armor for you later, okay?"

The sun was setting in the west and the evening breeze was slightly cool. After wandering for a long time, even the accompanying guards were a little tired, and our group finally returned to Nalan Residence.

In the mansion, at a place Fork in the Road, Xiao Meier's excitement gradually disappeared, and they became nervous and apprehensive. They looked at me and said:

"Ye Gege, that..."

I smiled, but I was actually a little nervous and embarrassed. After a pause, I said softly, "Let's break up here. You go back to the yard to take a shower and change clothes. Then I will ask the maid to come and take you there."

"Hmm."

She nodded with a flushed face, and I stretched out my hand to rub my hair, thought about it, and then said, "Also, don't use the things I bought today."

"Just dress up as usual. It's just a normal dinner. What you're wearing is too fancy and it's not good... My mother probably doesn't like it either."

"Ugh..."

Her face turned redder and she lowered her head shyly. I was also embarrassed. I had never experienced this kind of thing!

After saying a few random words and looking at Xiao Yu who was holding back a smile, I walked toward my yard as if I was running away.
