Chapter 171: Chapter 171 Cui Yun Knew She Would Cause Trouble

A few people were whispering amongst themselves, which girl doesn’t love to look pretty?

"These clothes are really beautiful, compared to what we saw downstairs, those look downright shabby. It’s a pity we can’t afford them. Since we’re here, might as well take a longer look, enjoying the sight is also nice."

A group of people happily gazed at those exquisite skirts.

Then they witnessed a strange scene.

The girl who just covered Commandery Princess’s mouth was rashly picking one piece of clothing after another, as if she wished she could buy them all.

Yet she was very picky.

After picking a few, she found them ugly and wanted to put them back, but paused.

The girl pondered: "The fabric is soft, I’ll take it back to use as a rag to wipe the table."

Thus, she handed them to Yingwu.

Everyone: ...

If you didn’t know, you’d think she was buying vegetables on the street!

Shen Hua, tired from choosing, went to the rest room to sip some tea and would continue picking after resting enough.

It took her another two hours before she lazily finished up, still seemingly reluctant to stop.

"Let’s just buy these."

"Little ghost, are you done yet?"

Cui Rong still held those ill-fitting dresses and mumbled: "I just want these."

She earnestly looked at Shen Hua: "I’ll eat less, then I can squeeze into them. It’s not that difficult, don’t you think?"

Shen Hua: ... "It’s good to be ambitious."

Yingwu ran multiple trips just to carry all the dresses to the checkout counter on the first floor.

Shopkeeper, laughing uncontrollably: "Oh my, Miss Shen has a fine taste."

She picked the most expensive ones.

She counted the money for each item, then announced a total.

"13,000 taels."

Just as Shen Hua was about to pay, she saw Yingwu use a silver note to settle the bill.

Yingwu turned his head: "As the Master ordered."

Oh.

Shen Hua didn’t offer any objection.

Her palm still ached!

Shouldn’t it?

Shopkeeper: "The clothes are rather numerous, Miss Shen, would it be convenient if I send someone to deliver them to your mansion later?"

"That would be appreciated."

Shen Hua was about to leave with Cui Rong but after a few steps returned.

She rested one hand on the counter.

"You should get rid of those clueless girls on the third floor. Their loud and obnoxious behavior is truly annoying."

After leaving the Yunxiang Pavilion, Cheng Gui was still waiting outside.

After Shen Hua entered the carriage, she unexpectedly bumped into Cui Yun, who was holding a book. She was a bit surprised.

"Why haven’t you left?"

Cui Yun put down the book, his tone neither salty nor bland: "No rush."

"Uncle surely waited for me."

Cui Rong sat down next to Cui Yun.

"Those girls are so annoying, don’t think I don’t know they came here under the guise of buying clothes, but secretly they were aiming for a glimpse of my uncle. Uncle intentionally avoided them."

As she spoke, Cui Rong seemed quite proud.

Her uncle was everything good, no wonder those girls acted like they were mad about him.

Shen Hua discovered yet another of Cui Yun’s admirable traits.

She had been upstairs for two hours, while Cui Yun had waited downstairs for her. Although he waited for Cui Rong, it still showcased his patience and there was no hint of impatience.

Conventional courtesies had to be upheld.

"I’ve bought quite a few clothes today. Cousin has spent a lot."

Cui Yun did not ask how much was spent. Seeing Shen Hua being unusually delicate and sycophantic, his lips moved slightly, and he indifferently said: "Can afford it."

This statement was quite pleasing to the ear. Shen Hua didn’t find it inappropriate and slightly curved her eyes smiling.

There’s a happy event at Yongchang Marquis Mansion the day after tomorrow, Cui Xuan will take them there tomorrow.

Of course, Cui Yun would not accompany them. He has official duties, and on the day of the marriage, he needs to accompany Xuan Chen.

When the carriage stopped at Marquis Yangling Mansion, Cui Yun helped Cui Rong down from the carriage. Shen Hua followed and stepped down using the footstool.

The sight turned blurry, as if a disrupted scene invaded, immediately followed by an out-of-place light laugh carrying a casual tone. It seemed to come from a thousand miles away, ethereal and intangible.

—Just caught fresh fish won’t eat, nor will it eat a fresh mouse, this cat of yours is truly delicate.

Shen Hua’s body suddenly stiffened.

She tried hard to see what, but the face of the youth vanished like a fleeting dream.

Shen Hua ascended the steps in a daze. Unsteady on her feet, she staggered even more. Her waist tightened as someone firmly clutched her body.

"What’s the matter?" The voice of Cui Yun sounded beside her ear.

The tone was similar, yet one was vivid and the other like a stagnant pool of water.

What on earth had he gone through?

Shen Hua shook her head: "It’s nothing."

Her mood was not very uplifted. Then she stopped walking, leaning on Yingwu as if boneless.

"Yingwu,"

The girl’s expression was grave.

Cui Yun knew that she was about to start her antics.

Sure enough, the next moment.

"I’m so tired, I can’t walk anymore."

"You just carried two people today and didn’t even pant."

"Carry me back to the East Courtyard."

Don’t pity her just because she is a delicate flower!

Shen Hua: "I’m not afraid of the bumps."

Yingwu had never heard such a request before. But as she always responded to every request, he was about to hoist Shen Hua onto his shoulder.

Cui Yun was expressionless.

"Go and bring the wheelchair."

Yingwu slightly regretful: "Yes."

Shen Hua didn’t mind, as long as she didn’t have to walk. She had walked a lot today and was very tired at the moment.

While she waited at the threshold for Yingwu to return, Cui Yun was not in a hurry to go back to his study.

"In the next two days, I’ve spoken with the teacher, we will pause the lessons and consider it a long vacation for you."

He leaned forward slightly: "But you still need to practice writing five pages a day."

Cui Rong made a face: "Uncle, but my hand hurts."

"I hit your left hand, don’t tell me you’ve become left-handed now?"

Cui Rong: ...

"It’s still early, if you go back and write early, you’ll likely meet your quota before bedtime, and you can play freely for the next two days."

Cui Rong: !!!

She jumped up joyfully.

"Uncle, you said it!"

"Yes, I said it, but the writing must be neat. If it’s not good, it won’t count."

"I know."

Since Cui Yun would check the work, there was no way she could slack off.

Clearly very persuasive, Cui Rong happily headed to her own courtyard.

Shen Hua pursed her lips.

She fiercely pursed her lips.

Shen Hua suddenly asked, turning her head: "What if the little ghost pretends his right hand is injured, and wraps it with layers of bandages, how would cousin react?"

Cui Yun was not surprised, he gazed at Shen Hua: "Is this a tactic you used to skip your studies when you were young?"

Shen Hua was about to nod, but the next moment, she looked around warily.

"Certainly not me!"

"I am the one who despises such dishonest behavior the most."

Cui Yun wasn’t sure whether to believe her or not. He simply kept his composure serenely.

"The academic burden is heavy, it’s inevitable for her to display such laziness. As an elder, it’s natural for me not to expose her."

Shen Hua just felt that Cui Yun was quite considerate of the little girl’s feelings.

Cui Yun indifferently said: "Since she’s injured, she should peacefully recuperate indoors, she can go out once she has recovered."

Shen Hua felt a bit suffocated.

Being confined to her room, what’s the difference from being made to reflect on mistakes? Cui Rong wouldn’t be able to endure it.

She could only feel fortunate that when she was Cui Rong’s age, she didn’t have such a terrifying uncle.

If she were Cui Rong, she’d probably go crazy.

Just thinking about the scenario made Shen Hua feel uncomfortable all over.

"Miss Shen, what do you think?"

Shen Hua: "I don’t want to talk."

The girl lowered her head, refusing to interact with Cui Yun, she gave a lame excuse: "My hand hurts."

After a moment’s thought, she added: "The fingers are connected to the heart."
