Chapter 43 Like a Painting
Seeing that he suddenly got angry, Wang Yuyan also became a little angry.
"Why are you so fierce? I'm not tactless. I will definitely be careful when talking outside."
Zhao Junyi glanced at her and walked towards the main hall, "You'd better keep your word."
Soon, Zhao Ruyun's voice came from the kitchen, "It's time to eat."
During the meal, Zhao Junyi asked about the gift Xue Yao gave him. Zhao Ruyun looked at Zhao Junyi warily and said, "Brother, this is a gift from Sister Xue."
Zhao Junyi stretched out his hand, "I know, I'll just take a look, I don't want yours."
Zhao Ruyun took the silver hairpin out of her bosom and handed it over, "Then take a look at it and give it back to me immediately."
Zhao Junyi did what he said. He took it, looked at it, and then returned it to her.
His eyes darkened. It was a silver hairpin that couldn't be more ordinary, with average workmanship and average weight, and was probably worth about two or three taels of silver.
Zhao Ruyun breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that her brother had no intention of confiscating it. She happily took it and put it back in her arms.
Zhao Junyi went to the academy after dinner. Before leaving, he told Zhao Ruyun, "I have an appointment with my classmates tonight, so I won't be back for dinner. Don't wait for me."

After Yun Xi bought some pastries with Yun Yan, Yun Yan dragged her to the clothing store and insisted that Yun Yan buy her two sets of dresses.
Even Wang Daya is dressed well, so his sister can't be bad either.
Yun Xi looked at Yun Yan with a strange expression, "So, you mean I should dress like her and look like a decent person?"
Yun Yan realized that he had said something wrong and tried to make amends, "How could that be possible? I didn't mean that. What I meant was that my sister is so pretty, so she should dress up beautifully."
After saying that, he asked the female shopkeeper in the shop to pick out clothes for Yunxi.
The female shopkeeper naturally wouldn't refuse business, but seeing that the two were dressed simply, Yun Xi was wearing a short top and a tight skirt, it looked like country folk at first glance, and their clothing store didn't really sell this kind of clothes.
People in the country generally don't want to buy ready-made clothes. They buy cloth and make them themselves, and they do it every few years.
The female shopkeeper also thought that the two wanted to buy cloth and went to the wrong place, so she kindly pointed to the opposite side and said, "Hey, young man, the cloth shop is across the street."
Yun Yan frowned unhappily, "We know that we are not buying cloth, we are here to buy ready-made clothes."
Knowing that it was because of the way he and his younger sister dressed that the shopkeeper misunderstood that they had no silver, he spread his hands in front of Yunxi and said, "Little sister, give me 20 taels."
Yun Xi looked at his second brother who was raising his chin with a proud look on his face, and reluctantly took out 20 taels from his sleeve (actually from the space in his sleeve) and gave it to him.
Yun Yan took the silver and grinned, then waved it in front of the female shopkeeper, "Shopkeeper, now you can help us pick out clothes, right?"
The female shopkeeper smiled apologetically, "Oh, I'm sorry I was not very good at seeing. Pick one right away. Please follow me, young lady."
Yun Xi looked at Yun Yan's enthusiastic look and decided not to refuse his kindness. She followed the female shopkeeper to pick out dresses to try on.
When Yun Xi came out again, Yun Yan was stunned.
Yun Xi was seen wearing an exquisite skirt, as if she was walking out of a painting.
The light pink top is embroidered with delicate patterns, and the light blue skirt has layers of folds that flutter like waves, giving people a light and agile feeling.
The sleeves were loose and flowing, and she had a dark purple belt tied around her waist, accentuating her slender waist.
The hairstyle should have been re-combed by the female shopkeeper, and it also complements the skirt. There is no complicated bun, and it is only fixed with a wooden hairpin, which looks elegant and generous.
She was wearing a pair of brand new white embroidered shoes with exquisite patterns embroidered on the uppers, which complemented the ruqun.
Her smile is bright and her dimples are deep, lively and beautiful.
Yun Yan circled around Yun Xi twice, praising her, "Little sister, you should wear it like this, it looks so good."
What girl doesn’t love beauty? Yunxi never wore a ruqun before because she thought it was inconvenient to do things at home and she wouldn’t have many opportunities to wear it even if she bought it, so she never bought one.
Now that I've tried this on, I fell in love with it at first sight.
Yun Yan waved his hand and said, "Boss, this is it. How much is the silver?"
The female shopkeeper smiled happily and said, "Young man, the total is 12 taels and 280 wen. Just give me 12 taels."
Yun Yan paid the money readily and said to Yun Xi, "Little sister, you can just wear it like this, no need to change."
Yun Xi thought about it and decided that it would be fine to dress like this since they were in the county town now, so she agreed.
Yun Yan wanted to buy two more sets, but Yun Xi did not agree and only asked him to buy one for herself.
Yun Yan waved his hands repeatedly, "I don't need it. I just need cloth to make new clothes for my mother."
Yun Xi did not force him. She pulled him across the street and bought two pieces of cotton cloth, preparing to ask her mother to make two sets of clothes for everyone in the family.
If he wasn't unsure about the size of the ready-made clothes, he would just buy them.
The two of them returned to the restaurant carrying large and small bags. Yun Qi saw Yun Xi and almost didn't recognize her.
"Little sister?"
Yun Xi put the cakes on the table and turned around holding up her skirt. She asked Yun Qi the same question she had asked Yun Yan, "Brother, do they look good?"
Yun Qi nodded with his mouth slightly open, "It looks good."
Yunxi was happy. Being praised for being pretty really made one feel happy physically and mentally.
Yun Yan also laughed foolishly, "I will wear this when we return to the village tomorrow. It will dazzle everyone."
Yun Qi ignored his boasting and caught the message in his words, "You guys are going back to the village tomorrow?"
Yun Xi sat down next to Yun Qi, took out the teahouse's title deed and cooperation agreement from her sleeve, handed them to him, and then responded, "Well. The teahouse is ours now. The shopkeeper is leaving, and we have to find a new one. I want to go back and ask my uncle if he is willing."
Yunqi looked at the two contracts and handed them back to Yunxi.
"My uncle is good at dealing with people and has a quick mind. He is a good candidate to manage the shop. But he can't read a few words, so he needs an accountant."
Yun Xi said, "Big brother and I have the same idea on this point. But I still need you to arrange the candidate."
Yun Qi looked at her with a smile, "You should have already chosen someone in mind, is it Ding or Cai?"
Yun Xi smiled and said, "Any one of them will do. Big brother, you can make the arrangements."
Yunqi thought for a moment and said, "Then let's go with Ah Cai. Didn't you say that we will do other things in the future? I will need to withdraw by then, so I thought I could let Ah Ding run this restaurant."
After the brothers and sisters discussed the matter, Yunqi went back to work.
In the evening, Yun Xi had nothing to do and wanted to go to Yang's Private School to pick up Yun Yi and Yun Shuai from school.
In fact, she usually doesn't want to run around when she has nothing to do, but today, after wearing her beautiful new clothes, Yun Xi really wants to go out for a walk.
