Chapter 274: Handsome Young Man
Chapter 274: Handsome Young Man
The two appeared side by side on the street. Suddenly, Song Miqiu's eyes lit up as she spotted something. She patted Yu Huailin on the shoulder, smiled, and pointed to the items on the stall, "Let's go buy that!"
Song Miqiu hurriedly pulled Yu Huailin to buy. When the stall owner looked up, he saw an old woman and a handsome man standing in front of him. He was stunned for a moment, thinking that it was a grandmother bringing her grandson to buy.
Looking at the fabric of their clothes and their attire, the stall owner smiled and pushed out a love lock in front of him, "Grandma, this love lock is beautiful! You should buy it for your grandson so he can use it with other girls in the future."
"Just think about it, your grandson is so handsome, and you bought him such a nice, high-quality love lock. That girl will definitely adore him!"
Upon hearing this, Song Miqiu blinked. She subconsciously glanced at Yu Huailin beside her before realizing that she was now wearing a mask on the street.
She found it somewhat amusing, and seeing that Yu Huailin was about to step forward and say something, she quickly tugged at his hand from behind and smiled in agreement.
Song Miqiu handed the silver to the stall owner. Seeing that Yu Huailin's face had turned completely dark, she smiled and pulled him aside to explain, "Why are you getting angry with him? After all, I didn't take off my mask when I went out today."
"If it wasn't picked, it wasn't picked."
Seeing this, Song Miqiu finally realized what Re Huailin was thinking. She covered her mouth and asked with a smile, "Don't you mind if people say you're with an old woman, or that you're blind?"
"Why should I mind? You were drunk at the restaurant before, and it was I who brought you back by claiming you were my wife."
Upon hearing this, Song Miqiu realized that Yu Huailin was a little emotional, and she quickly comforted him.
Just as Yu Huailin was in a good mood, Song Miqiu caught a glimpse of a familiar figure from the back of someone in the corner of her eye. She squinted at the figure and instantly realized that it was Hua Mama, the old woman by the Empress Dowager's side!
Song Miqiu grabbed Yu Huailin's clothes, using the other's body to shield herself, while watching Granny Hua sneakily walk in one direction.
Seeing this, she narrowed her eyes. Song Miqiu's intuition told her that there must be something going on, and it was something significant.
Seeing that Granny Hua was going to take a detour to a certain place, Song Miqiu's eyes lit up and she immediately planned to pull Yu Huailin to follow her. "Let's go, let's go see what Granny Hua is up to."
"Why are you following her?" Yu Huailin was somewhat speechless. After all, what was so interesting about following a mere old woman like Granny Hua?
Song Miqiu glanced back at Yu Huailin and said in a deep voice, "After falling out with the Empress Dowager, this old woman has been trying to trip me up in the shadows. I need to see what she's up to this time."
Yu Huailin was pulled over forcefully by Song Miqiu, and he couldn't put up any resistance.
The two of them followed the old woman until they saw her enter a house.
Song Miqiu and Yu Huailin stopped in a corner, their gaze fixed on the direction of the house entrance.
Just as they were trying to figure out how to get in, Song Miqiu saw Granny Hua come out of the house.
Seeing this, Song Miqiu's expression went out of control for a moment. Watching Granny Hua's departing figure, she quickly came out from the corner and craned her neck to take a look at Granny Hua.
She hurriedly tugged at Yu Huailin's sleeve and strode towards the house, but it was impossible to get in. After thinking it over, Song Miqiu finally turned her attention to the house's neighbors.
Song Miqiu led her people to the house next to the main house. She pulled on the iron ring and knocked a few times, and the people inside opened the door from the inside.
The person who opened the door was a woman. She looked Song Miqiu up and down, then frowned and asked, "Who are you...?"
"Hello, do you know what kind of people live in your neighbor's house?" Song Miqiu asked in a friendly manner.
Presumably because Song Miqiu looked older than his age, and because there was a handsome Yu Huailin by his side, the lady did not hide anything from Song Miqiu and immediately informed him.
"Inside this house lives an extremely handsome young man! He rarely goes out, and if I hadn't bumped into him by chance, I wouldn't have known that the person living here was so good-looking!"
Upon hearing this, Song Miqiu turned to look at Yu Huailin, who happened to be looking at Song Miqiu as well.
The two exchanged a glance and instantly realized that something was wrong.
After all, it was quite strange for a nanny to suddenly sneak into the residence of a handsome young man.
After thanking their neighbors, the two quickly left to find Qingzhi.
She told Qingzhi about this, and then covered her mouth with amusement, teasingly saying, "Could this person also be the Empress Dowager's male favorite? But now the Empress Dowager has become smarter and has simply placed him outside the palace."
Qingzhi glanced subconsciously at Yu Huailin's position and saw that the other party was staring intently at him.
This left Qing Zhi feeling bewildered, but he didn't say anything. His gaze lingered on Song Miqiu, and he smiled and agreed, "Okay, I'll go and find out what's going on with this man later."
After handing everything over to Qingzhi, Song Miqiu smiled and said goodbye, "I'm going shopping now. You can keep asking around."
Seeing this, Qingzhi felt a little helpless. Before he could say anything, he saw Song Miqiu being pulled away by Yu Huailin without stopping at all.
He paused, then suddenly realized something and chuckled, a hint of amusement in his smile.
The two continued shopping, and Yu Huailin led Song Miqiu directly into a jewelry shop. He immediately took a liking to a pair of jade hairpins, picked them up, and called Song Miqiu over.
He inserted the jade hairpin into Song Miqiu's hair, and Song Miqiu's bright and beautiful face automatically appeared in his mind's eye. He instantly felt that the hairpin was very suitable for Song Miqiu.
The stall owner was smiling as he watched Yu Huailin pick up the hairpin, until he inserted it into an old woman's hair, which made the stall owner's smile freeze for a moment.
But he quickly recovered and smiled as he complimented her, "She looks really good in this hairpin, it suits her perfectly!"
Looking into their eyes, the stall owner immediately realized the relationship between the two men. He was somewhat surprised, as he hadn't expected such a handsome man to fall for someone with one foot in the grave.
But since they've come to buy things from him, they're customers, they're his superiors, so naturally he won't say anything.
Seeing them murmuring about whether to buy it, the stall owner rubbed his hands together with a smile and said, "Why not buy it! You two look so loving, he must really dote on you. Besides, this hairpin looks perfect for you. Wouldn't it be a shame not to buy it?"
