Chapter 71: Goodbye
Since Jiang Zhixia made the preliminary plan, she has been busy.
After breakfast the next day, Jiang Zhixia put on a hat and took Xiaoman to Feng'an Street. She first went to the closed-door pen shop mentioned by the two scholars.
After reading it, Jiang Zhixia was disappointed.
Strictly speaking, the shop is not on Feng'an Street, but is located at the junction of Feng'an Street and an alley. It is a shop with one floor that looks like two houses.
Yes, how big can a pen and ink shop be?
There was also a rent notice posted on the door of the shop.
Jiang Zhixia asked the shop next to her and found out that the owner of the shop was an old man. The shop was kept for the elderly, so she just rented it out, but she didn't plan to sell it.
However, this shop is too small and does not meet Zhixia's requirements at all.
After disappointment, Zhixia began to cheer herself up again, 'It's not that easy to start a business.'
So, after Jiang Zhixia continued to have breakfast every day, she started to go to Feng'an Street to inquire about this store, ask about that store, ask about it, ask about it.
Xiaoman follows Jiang Zhixia every day, from the excitement at the beginning to the confusion later on.
"Girl, what are you going to do?" Xiaoman looked at Jiang Zhixia and brought herself to a pen and ink shop. Then, after asking a guy in the pen and ink shop which kind of pen and ink is the best. Finally, he couldn't help but ask in confusion.
Didn’t the girl say she had found a business and planned to open a shop?
However, the girl didn't go to the Yashang to ask the shop for the shop, but she just ran around here and there. After asking this person, she asked that person again. It was really strange.
A few days ago, the girl went to a bookstore. After flipping through several books from the bookstore, she ran to ask the shopkeeper where they bought the books from, and then went home with disappointment.
The girl didn't go out all day long. However, she kept muttering: "It was copied. It was copied. It was not printed."
Don't know what it means?
Finally, the girl was so energetic that she went out today, but she came to the pen shop again and asked them which pen is the best, which ink is the best, where they are made, where they bought the goods from, etc.
Fortunately, the guy's attitude was fine. Except for the last question of where to buy goods, there was no answer, all the others were answered.
However, after hearing the guy's answer, the girl was obviously disappointed.
"It's okay." Jiang Zhixia replied indifferently when she heard Xiaoman's question.
After saying that, Jiang Zhixia bought a good set of pen and inkstone for Xiaoman to hold it, and began to walk out absent-mindedly.
With a 'bang', Jiang Zhixia hit a person who had just entered the door. She was bounced down and the curtain cap fell to the ground.
"Don't you have eyes?" Before the hitting master could speak, the servant next to him shouted sternly.
"I'm sorry. I didn't mean it." Jiang Zhixia also knew that it was because she was absent-minded and didn't look at the road, so she quickly apologized.
"Miss Jiang?" A surprised male voice rang out.
Jiang Zhixia looked up and didn't know the man in front of her. But she could call out her surname again. This should be someone who knew her? Jiang Zhixia muttered in her heart, and she was quite hesitant and stopped talking.
"You don't know me anymore?" The man also saw Jiang Zhixia's desire to speak and said laughing, "Yes, I haven't seen it for more than half a year."
The man said, and he wanted to reach out and help Zhixia up.
Jiang Zhixia quickly waved her hand to refuse, then supported the ground with her hands and wanted to stand up.
Xiaoman happened to come over and put everything in his hand on the ground next to him. He quickly helped Zhixia stand up, and then patted the dust on Zhixia.
Jiang Zhixia said a little embarrassedly: "Sorry, it's not good for me to know people. The young master laughed. Please forgive me. I wonder if the young master is?"
"I am Liu Wenli, the Marquis of Cheng'en. This is our third time meeting." Liu Wenli said with a smile.
He could see that this girl really didn't recognize people very much and didn't have the kind of intention of playing hard to get.
After all, it has been more than ten months since we met last time, right? If we were tolerant, it would have been too long.
"Ah, it turns out it's Master Liu San." Jiang Zhixia remembered.
Isn't it the third time we meet?
The first time was on the day Zhixia left the palace, she was almost hit by the horse from Cheng'en Marquis's mansion. Master Liu San went to compensate.
The second time I met at a teahouse on Feng'an Street. At that time, I also had a few simple conversations.
"I'm really sorry. I have mild facial blindness, so I can't recognize people." Jiang Zhixia apologized with another palace ceremony.
"Face blindness?" Liu Wenli asked in confusion.
Jiang Zhixia became upset again. What's going on? The more anxious he was, the more trouble he was. Why did he say the words that were not available in this era?
"Uh, uh," Jiang Zhixia's mind was spinning wildly, thinking about how she could fulfill this sentence, "That's, it's just that, I don't recognize people very much. That's what I say in my hometown."
There should be no one to go to her hometown to investigate, right? Jiang Zhixia muttered in her heart.
"So that's it. It's appropriate. Miss Jiang just has no impression of my face at all?" Liu Wenli said in a gentle manner, "It's okay. Miss Jiang is here to buy pens and ink?"
Liu Wenli's eyes were staring at the ground next to Jiang Zhixia.
Because Xiaoman came to help Zhixia in a hurry, he put all the pen, inkstones on the ground casually.
Now, Xiaoman was squatting on the ground to clean up the scattered pens and ink.
Songhu pen, Yanlin ink, Yunshui inkstone, these are all high-quality pen inkstones. These three things cost almost two or three hundred silver, right?
He remembered that Jiang Zhixia was just a little palace maid who left the palace.
Now, is this?
Liu Wenli looked at Jiang Zhixia's hair----the hair of an unmarried woman was still radiant, and she had no head.
If you don’t get married, it’s not the financial resources of your husband’s family. That’s if you have money?
Interesting, interesting.
"Yes. I came here to buy some pens and ink. As a result, I accidentally bumped into Mr. Liu San. I'm so sorry." Jiang Zhixia said apologetically. It was all because he was thinking about the shop, which led to his absent-mindedness.
"It's okay." Liu Wenli replied.
Then, there was a silence.
I am an unfamiliar person and I have nothing to talk about.
After a while of silence, Liu Wenli saw that Jiang Zhixia was not saying anything, so she made way for the way.
"Please go first, girl." Liu Wenli said politely.
"Thank you, Master Liu San." Jiang Zhixia breathed in her heart, picked up the hat on the ground, and quickly bowed and said goodbye.
I am most afraid of dealing with the powerful.
Jiang Zhixia took Xiaoman and walked quickly towards home without looking back.
Naturally, he didn't notice that Liu Wenli waved to the servant Fushun and gave him a few words.
The servant Fushun summoned the guards who followed him. After saying a few words, the guard followed Jiang Zhixia from afar.
Chapter completed!
