"Sister, have you ever heard of Zimo Xuan?"
Yan Zi said in surprise.
"Of course I've heard of the name Zimo Xuan. Don't you know, sister, that people are also very obsessed with Poet Immortal, Word Sage? People not only know that Mr. Xu is the owner of Zimo Xuan, but they also know the height and appearance of Mr. Xu."
Chen Qingshui's eyes shone brightly, and he took Yan Zi's hand and said, "I didn't expect that my sister and Mr. Xu are actually a family. Now I am very proud. When I go back and tell my friends, I will envy them to death. By the way, my sister and Mr. Xu are a family. Can you tell me, What kind of person is Mr. Xu? What does he like to eat and wear? Are you studying poetry these days?"
"My young master... he is a very nice person!"
When I really wanted to evaluate Xu Yi, Yan Zi had countless words of praise in his mind. When he was about to speak out, he realized that none of them were worthy of his young master. It seemed that only this "excellent, extremely excellent" could barely be summed up.
Chen Qingshui scoffed slightly, "My sister is blushing and her eyes are crazy. It seems that my sister also has a crush on your young master."
"Ah, what are you talking about? I won't talk to you anymore. Go find your husband quickly."
Yan Zi stomped his feet lightly, his face flushed. The secret deep in his heart that had never been revealed to others suddenly came to light. Yan Zi was so embarrassed that he couldn't help it.
"What's the matter? There are many people in Manshenjing who like your young master. They are obsessed with Mr. Xu and forget about him all the time. To be honest, sister, I am one of them. My sister is around Mr. Xu and is attracted to Mr. Xu. There is nothing to be ashamed of."
Chen Qingshui took Yan Zi's beautiful hand and kept shaking it, "Sister, I haven't told you yet. What poems and articles is Mr. Xu currently studying? Please, sister, be sure to reveal a few things so that I can feel proud in front of my sisters."
Just as Yan Zi was about to speak, a voice came from the front, "Dear guests, there is still a stick of incense left before the start of our social gathering. Now let's ask Shenjing Marquis Anqing, Leader of the Merchant Alliance to give a speech."
The whole place burst into thunderous applause. Only then did Yan Zi remember that he had come to attend the meeting, and he was not here to hide. Sitting in the corner like this was not enough. To socialize, you had to talk and communicate with others. It was also good to listen to some big policies.
At that moment, she hurriedly apologized to Chen Qingshui and walked forward quickly.
Chen Qingshui couldn't help shouting, so he paused on the spot, quietly staring at Yan Zi's beautiful back, with a strange light emitting from his long and narrow eyes.
There was only a stick of incense left before the sorority party started. Marquis Anqing unceremoniously talked nonsense for a stick of incense. Yan Zi thought that he would hear something useful, but all he heard were "I hope", "I think", "unity", "mutual help", "Long live"...
It makes people feel sleepier than a monk chanting sutras.
After a while, the incense stick passed by, and the middle-aged man in Chinese clothes who presided over the situation appeared again and announced the activity plan of the sorority. The gathered people dispersed.
Only now did Yan Zi realize that the sorority was not just about socializing, but also about real money. Thinking of the 10,000 yuan of activity funds delivered by Yuan Qinghua in Sumeru Ring, Yan Zi felt a little at ease. If he didn't buy anything and just participated in a charity sale, it must be enough, so as not to embarrass Zimo Xuan.
Just as she was thinking about it, a young man in gorgeous clothes came towards her with a smile. Yan Zi was about to smile, but found that she couldn't smile anymore. People were approaching her from all directions.
"I invited this young lady. May I ask which family she is from? Why is she so unfamiliar?"
"The young lady is naturally beautiful and has extraordinary appearance. She must be from the Dukes and Marquises family. Miss Dissatisfaction, Dukes and Marquises from Manshenjing, are all related to my family. Maybe the young lady and I are still related."
"I, Bai Yutang, am a candidate for the new imperial examination and ranked second in the Classics and Meanings of the Literary Examination. May I ask the lady's name..."
"..."
It was a mess, it was all a mess, Yan Zi felt her head was buzzing, she had never seen this scene before, in the past, Zimo Xuan was an expert in welcoming and sending people off.
But the scene here is too big, and she is confused when she cares about it. She thinks that she has a heavy burden and should not live up to the trust of the young master. She is uneasy and how can she cope with it freely.
And she didn't understand at all why everyone rushed to her in an instant.
It turns out that Yan Zi was in the game without knowing it. She was good-looking, lively and pretty. After following Xu Yi, Martial Arts's level improved rapidly, and now she has reached Body Tempering Peak.
With the improvement of Martial Arts's realm, his physique has undergone tremendous changes. His beauty is even better than before, his heart is more pure and kind, and his appearance is born from his heart. His appearance may not be peerless, but the smell of hibiscus coming out of clear water and the natural removal of ornaments makes people forget the vulgarity.
The big shots at the venue had seen many charming beauties, and when they suddenly saw such a pure and elegant beauty as Yan Zi, they naturally flocked to her.
Yan Zi was in embarrassment when Chen Qingshui rushed forward and said, "Gentlemen, please give way. There are many of you talking together. My sister should agree to whoever I agree to first. You'd better discuss it and come back to find my sister." With that, he pulled Yan Zi and slipped out of the encirclement.
Chen Qingshui didn't ask any more about Xu Yi's situation, and took Yan Zi around, tasting food, wine, and shopping, and unknowingly reached the front row.
At this moment, the middle-aged man in colorful clothes came on stage again and said loudly, "Dear guests, the exchange meeting has come to an end for the time being. Next, it is time to start our next theme, a charity sale for the widowed and lonely group in Shenjing..."
"What a charity sale is, it's just an opportunity for rich people to show their kindness, and it's also a vanity fair for the big shots in the palace to exaggerate their worth."
Chen Qingshui whispered carefully.
Yan Zi was at a loss when the auction started. After a few rounds, she understood what Yan Zi meant.
The so-called charity sales are mostly items that flowed out from the inner palace, such as Talented Lady Zhang's round fans, Lady Liu's hand warmers, Consort Song's <Classic of the Great Unity>, Princess Anning's Cuju shoes...
Originally they were commonplace objects, but because they were contaminated with royal aura, their worth immediately increased a hundred times.
Moreover, it was known as a charity sale. Either to reveal their identity or to flatter some royal noble, the prices of these ordinary items kept rising again and again.
According to the identity of the owner of the common things, the few were one or two thousand gold, and the most were four or five thousand gold. The pieces of junk disappeared very quickly, and the middle-aged man in Chinese clothes who was in charge of the host Zhang Fang almost burst into laughter.
"Sister, didn't you want to take a photo?"
Chen Qingshui whispered.
"Zimo Xuan What do you want with these things? I would rather donate them than buy them back."
Yan Zi pinched his throat and said.
Chen Qingshui smiled and said, "This is my sister who is an amateur. Do you think they are robbing the rags and not trying to show their goodwill to the palace? To be honest, those princes and nobles may not support it, but my sister who is opening the door for business must support it. If the auction is over, whichever house has not won the bid will definitely be recorded by then, and the shoes will be indispensable in the future."
