Chapter 2064 Another time traveler
Seeing her like this, Chen Changli thought she was really tired, so he bent down and picked her up horizontally, causing Wan Shufang to subconsciously exclaim.
"Chen Changli, what are you doing? There are so many people here, put me down quickly."
There were many maids and servants in the county magistrate's mansion, and people were coming and going. Wan Shufang felt that their gazes were scorching, and she struggled to get down, but Chen Changli had no intention of letting her go.
"Madam, you are tired. I will carry you to rest. What's the big deal? You and I are legitimate and have been married. They can only envy you."
Sure enough, as soon as Chen Changli finished speaking, the maids' whispers and low screams were heard behind him.
"Ahhh, the Duke is so kind to my wife. I wish my husband could be so kind in the future."
"My Lord and Madam are truly the envy of others. After many years of marriage, they are still as loving as ever."
"I'm so envious. I hope I can find a husband of my dreams, preferably one like you."
"There is no such good thing in this world. Men are so unfaithful and heartless."
The voices of the maids' discussions faded away until Wan Shufang could no longer hear them because Chen Changli had already carried her back into the house.
She glared at Chen Changli in reproach, but without saying anything else, she turned around and went to rest.
The people had already drunk the spring water containing the antidote, and everything was settled. Chen Changli and Wan Shufang were also ready to leave. The next morning, after saying goodbye to Old Man Feng and the county magistrate, they began to pack their bags.
While packing, Wan Shufang gave Chen Changli some instructions and asked him to buy some pastries to eat on the way, while she went to Yihongyuan alone.
Seeing Wan Shufang, the madam greeted her with a smile: "Sir, the courtesan is not here today, why don't I let other girls serve you? Don't worry, they are no worse than the courtesan."
The madam winked and wanted to ask the girls to come up. After all, Wan Shufang was a big money man and a rich young man who spent money lavishly.
She didn't want to fail in this business just because of the loss of Liu Ruyan.
But Wan Shufang was not here for pleasure at all. She blinked, looked at the madam, and stuffed the purse into her hand: "I came here today not to see the girls, but to buy the clothes that the courtesan had worn."
Hearing this, the madam was slightly stunned, and then looked at Wan Shufang with sympathy.
Just when Wan Shufang was at a loss, the madam sighed deeply and said regretfully: "The young master is deeply in love with me, I know it."
"This purse is thick enough to buy some clothes. I'll send someone to get it for you right away."
After saying this, the madam called the servant and asked him to go get clothes for Wan Shufang. Wan Shufang understood what she said and knew that the madam had misunderstood her and thought that she was deeply in love with Niu Jinzhi and wanted to take Niu Jinzhi's clothes as a souvenir...
But she was too lazy to explain so as not to cause trouble.
After a while, the servant came back with the clothes. The madam handed the clothes to Wan Shufang and said a few polite words: "It is a blessing for Ruyan to be treated like this by the young master."
"But the other girls in our courtyard are not bad either. If you come next time, I will definitely pick a good one to serve you."
Hearing this, Wan Shufang raised her eyes and glanced at the madam lightly. Seeing the greed on her face, she nodded slightly, then turned around and left with her clothes.
Anyway, she probably won't come back in the future.
After leaving Yihongyuan, Wan Shufang found a place where no one was around so that she could take a closer look at the clothes. She told herself that all this was just a coincidence.
But when I saw the stitching on the clothes, I was shocked. This is not the craftsmanship of this era...
"Could it be that there really is another time traveler?"
"Bola Ya, that mysterious woman, I must find out the whereabouts of that woman." Wan Shufang gritted her teeth. It's not that she couldn't tolerate the time traveler, but this time traveler didn't look like a good person.
The person who instigated Niu Jinzhi and Feng Huairen to use the Black Water Pills to make money would definitely be a disaster if he stayed, and she always felt that this person came because of her.
With her thoughts in turmoil, Wan Shufang felt very upset and returned to the inn in a daze. She packed her clothes into her bag, and Chen Changli also bought some cakes.
When everything was packed and they were about to leave, Chen Changli found that Wan Shufang seemed unhappy. He sat down and held Wan Shufang's hand: "Shufang, what's wrong with you? Why do you look so depressed?"
"It's okay." Wan Shufang shook her head and said nothing. The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, revealing a smile. But no matter how Chen Changli looked at it, that smile seemed a little far-fetched.
He glanced at her worriedly and put his bag down again: "On the way to buy cakes just now, I noticed that there is an acrobatic performance tonight. Why don't we watch it first?"
"We finally solved the Black Water Pill incident, it's time to relax." As he said this, he pulled Wan Shufang into his arms and hugged her tightly. Although he didn't know why she was unhappy, he wanted to do his best to coax her.
Hearing Chen Changli's words, Wan Shufang's eyes flickered. She glanced out the window and saw that the sun had gradually set, leaving only the fiery red sunset.
The red color reflected in her eyes, like a flame. Wan Shufang nodded, her red lips moving slightly: "Okay, we've been here for so long and haven't had a thorough look yet. Let's go eat something first."
Hearing this, Chen Changli stood up, moved his packed bag aside, then took Wan Shufang's hand and walked out the door.
The two went to a teahouse to eat first, and after dinner, they went to a temporary stage set up in the city. They arrived early and got a front seat.
The acrobatic performance was wonderful and always made people around laugh. Chen Changli couldn't help laughing: "Shufang, look at that person..."
As he spoke, he looked down at Wan Shufang, only to find that she was in a daze, looking absent-minded. Chen Changli pinched the palm of Wan Shufang's hand, and she came back to her senses.
"Oh, yes, it is quite interesting. I guess they have been practicing for a long time backstage." After she finished speaking, she took out some change from her purse and gave it to the performers.
Seeing this, Chen Changli pursed his lips but said nothing. After a long time, the acrobatic performance finally ended, and he took Wan Shufang to buy new clothes and visit a jewelry shop.
That night, Chen Changli bought her more than a dozen fashionable clothes, ordered two sets of headgear, and countless cakes and trinkets.
An Yi was forced to show up and turned into a servant carrying things.
But no matter what Chen Changli did, Wan Shufang was always depressed and seemed to have no interest in the whole process. She even sighed and looked sad from time to time.
"This one looks good too, and suits you well. Boss, please pack this hairpin for me as well." Seeing that Chen Changli wanted to buy more, Wan Shufang reached out to stop him.
"Changli, don't buy anymore. We've bought enough today." She said in a calm voice. After she finished speaking, she looked at the boss apologetically, then put down her hairpin and pulled Chen Changli away.
