Wei Shao'er, a Benefactor
"I finally found you!"
On Zhang Xuezhou's ninth day running his stall in the West Market, a familiar face appeared before him again.
Compared to two months ago, Wei Shao'er was a little fuller, and her fair face had a rosier glow.
She was also traveling in a luxurious carriage, dressed in colorful silks and satins.
If not for her unchanged face and voice, Zhang Xuezhou would have thought she was a different person.

"I'm not buying millet," Wei Shao'er said.

Zhang Xuezhou pointed at the stall, indicating that he had changed trades and businesses and didn't want to stir up more trouble.
The sight of Wei Shao'er gave him a headache.

Zhang Xuezhou had come to Chang'an City to seek office and rise steadily in a stable life. He couldn't go on running wild with Wei Shao'er.
After all, he had turned over a new leaf
