"I …" Zeng Zuimo looked at Li Yi with a worried expression. She wanted to say something but stopped.
"What about me? Let's eat." Li Yi waved his hand and said, "Do you still have any melon seeds? I still want the cream flavor."
Zeng Zuimo took out a small embroidered bag from her waist and said, "There's no cream flavor left. There's only five scents left."
"Forget it, it's still edible." Li Yi nodded, then looked at the two brocade boxes she placed on the table and asked, "What are these?"
"A gift for Bing Ning and Xin Yi." Perhaps Li Yi's calmness infected her, Zeng Zuimo relaxed a little and said.
"What? What gift? "Hearing the gift, the proud loli put down the drumstick and wiped her mouth with a handkerchief.
"It's not something expensive. Open it and see if you like it." Zeng Zuimo handed over the box and said with a smile.
"Wow, there's a gift!" The proud Lolita still had the temperament of a young girl. She couldn't wait to take the brocade boxes. The two brocade boxes had her and Yong Ning's names written on them. She handed the other brocade box to Yong Ning and quickly opened her own brocade box.
"So beautiful." Seeing the thing lying in the box, the proud loli couldn't help but exclaim.
Li Yi looked at it. It turned out to be a bracelet. This kind of accessory was very common in the future, but it naturally didn't exist in the present.
He once told Zeng Zuimo that he could open an accessory shop in the future and sell it with ready-made clothes. Of course, it was impossible to use precious gems in this world. The premise was that he could first burn the glass, which could greatly reduce the cost. However, this idea would probably have to wait for a long time.
After all, those sparkling and translucent things were very expensive. Even if ordinary glass was sold at the price of gemstones, there would still be countless people fighting to buy it. The profit was unimaginable, even far exceeding that of perfume and spirits. However, it was not suitable to take it out too early.
The thing on these two bracelets was naturally not glass, but it could also be regarded as jewelry. However, with Zeng Zuimo's current wealth, she could easily buy it.
And this strangely shaped bracelet should have been personally designed by her. Although the proud Lolita lived in the palace and had seen countless jewelry, it was impossible for her to have seen this kind.
"Thank you, Sister Zeng!" After the proud loli came back to her senses, she smiled sweetly at Ceng Zuimo. After thinking for a moment, she picked up the other drumstick in her bowl for Ceng Zuimo.
"Thank you, big sister." Yong Ning was not as excited as her sister, but she still looked very happy.
Zeng Zuimo looked at the two of them, then looked outside the door and said worriedly, "They …"
Li Yi put a piece of tofu in her bowl and said, "Don't worry, people who disturb other people's meals usually don't have a good ending. Hurry up and eat, it's really going to get cold."
Xiao Cui was on the verge of tears. The people outside were all fiendish, and it was obvious that they were not good people. They were about to call the officials, so how could the young miss and Li Li still eat?
With tears in her eyes, she picked up a piece of tofu.
"Aiya, this tofu is really delicious. No wonder it only costs three taels of silver. I have to have a good taste …"
…
…
"This person is so bold and arrogant. I don't believe you can bear it until now." In another room, Duke Duanyang looked at Qin Yu and said.
Qin Yu lowered his head and drank a cup of wine, without saying anything.
With his character, he naturally would not let go of those who offended him so easily.
However, on the surface, he could not do anything at all. These days, his grandfather was very strict with him. Most of the time, he was grounded at home or recuperated, but in fact, he did a lot of things secretly.
However, the first time he sent someone to follow him, he was beaten up and thrown into a deep alley. The second time, his leg was directly broken. After that, he sent out a martial arts master secretly recruited, but the result was the same. Now, the Qin's Mansion had a lot of people with broken hands and feet.
After that, he gave up the idea of secretly taking revenge.
No matter how proud he was, he had to admit that he was helpless against Li Yi.
Originally, after beating up the King of Shu, he entrusted this matter to the King of Shu. However, he did not expect that after the King of Shu came out of the palace, he became a good boy, reading at home all day or visiting some officials of the court. Until now, he had not seen the King of Shu.
The humiliation he suffered on the street last time made him the laughing stock of the whole capital, which was still unforgettable.
This time, when he met these two women again in the Drunken Moon Tower, he naturally would not let them go. However, with the intervention of Li Yi, he had to be careful.
The best way was to borrow a knife.
Borrowing a knife from the imperial court. As long as he insisted that the two women were related to the thief, the following things would naturally be logical.
No matter how arrogant he was, someone would not forgive him for daring to interfere with the imperial court's investigation.
At this time, the door was pushed open. A servant of the Qin's Mansion came in and said, "Young Master, Lord Liu is here."
Qin Yu stood up from his seat and walked out of the door. He cupped his hands in obeisance to a person who had just walked up the stairs and said with a smile, "This time, I have caused trouble for Lord Liu."
The current capital magistrate, Liu Dayou, did not belong to Prime Minister Qin. He used to work under the capital governor, Dong Wenyun, and Dong Wenyun's father-in-law was Prime Minister Shen, who had the same status as his grandfather.
Therefore, although he looked down on this capital magistrate, he could not be too arrogant at this moment.
"Young Duke Qin, you are too serious." County Magistrate Liu also cupped his hands in obeisance and said with a smile, "This is my duty. Young Duke Qin, you don't have to be so polite."
Qin Yu smiled and pointed to the young man beside him and said, "This is Prince Duanyang."
County Magistrate Liu was shocked. He did not expect that this matter would involve Prince Duanyang. This was an existence that he could not afford to offend. He hurriedly cupped his hands in obeisance and said, "Greetings, Prince Duanyang."
The young man waved his hand and said, "Sir, you'd better get down to business first. The two people are in the room behind you."
Hearing this, County Magistrate Liu immediately became a little vigilant.
There was Royal Prince Duanyang, Young Duke Qin, and all the other hedonistic young masters of the capital. Which one of them didn't have a heaven-defying background? Yet, they had gone out of their way to invite an official over. If someone said that there was no inside story to this matter, he wouldn't believe it even if they beat him to death.
However, as the county magistrate, this was indeed his duty. At this time, he could only bite the bullet and do it.
"Sir, do you want to break the door?" Seeing County Magistrate Liu pointing to the door, a yamen runner immediately asked.
The more than ten yamen runners who followed him here looked a little excited. They were working for these big shots. If they did it well, County Magistrate Liu would benefit a lot. Naturally, they would also benefit a lot.
"Knock on the door." County Magistrate Liu glared at him and said.
A group of brainless things. If there was really something good, would these people let them come here? It was obvious that there was trouble.
Before the yamen runner had time to knock on the door, the door opened from the inside. Li Yi looked at County Magistrate Liu standing at the door and said in surprise, "Hey, County Magistrate Liu, why are you here? I haven't seen you for a long time!"
County Magistrate Liu was stunned for a moment, then his face immediately showed a happy expression and said, "Sir Li, how come it's you? I haven't seen you for a long time."
County Magistrate Liu was full of gratitude for this former County Magistrate Li. If it were not for him, he was afraid that he would still be in the position of Anxi County Magistrate, waiting to retire. How could he sit in the position of the capital magistrate? His future was even brighter. He was afraid that in a few years or dozens of years, he would be able to sit in one of the highest positions.
Seeing that the two people were standing at the door and chatting, Prince Duanyang was stunned. After being stunned for a while, Qin Yu's face gradually became gloomy.
The rest of the people looked at County Magistrate Liu and were even more surprised. They had asked him to come here to arrest people. Who would have thought that County Magistrate Liu would actually chat with them?
