"Little sister, there are many cosmetics and jewelry stores on this street, ordinary girls really like to come here." Ming Cun Fu lifted the curtain, allowing Jiu Zhou to see the street scene more clearly.

Jiu Zhou stuck his head out, and saw that there were many young ladies gathered in groups of three or five, occasionally whispering to each other, the flower hairpins on their heads swaying with their movements.

The young men who looked like scholars clasped their hands to the girls from afar, their gestures gentle.

When the carriage passed by, the group of servants who accompanied them silently bowed their heads, no one showed any disdain.

The cleanly dressed official, with a saber hanging from his waist, was patrolling the streets, and whenever he met an acquaintance, he would laugh and joke with them, and conveniently helped a child who had just fallen to the ground.

The child was about to open his mouth to cry, but when he saw the saber hanging from the official's waist, he suddenly stopped, and stretched out his dirty hand to carefully touch the handle of the saber.

The official pretended not to see the child's actions, returned the boy to someone who kept saying thanks, and then blended into the crowd.

"We've arrived at the cosmetics store."

Jiu Zhou regained his senses, "We're here?"

"We're here." Ming Cun Fu got off the carriage, reached out to Jiu Zhou, "Come on, let's get off."

Jiu Zhou turned around and walked out of the carriage door, just as she was about to reach out, she suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves.

She tilted her head to look over, and saw a handsome young man in a purple robe riding on a horse, the pure white horse, the purple robe fluttering, like a magical beam of light shining on the quiet street here.

The horse was moving very slowly, the young man in purple showed off a leisurely appearance, as if nothing in this world could enter his eyes.

"Little sister, what are you looking at?" Ming Cun Fu followed her gaze, and saw a tailor shop, "Do you like clothes?"

The purple-clothed young master riding a white horse had already entered the alley beside him, Jiu Zhou retracted his gaze, "Big brother, I'm looking at the scenery."

Scenery?

Ming Cun Fu was stunned, then immediately felt heartache.

All these years, his cousin had always been raised in the mountains, so she felt that an ordinary street in the capital was also "scenery".

Touching the money in his pocket, he gritted his teeth and said, "Let's go, big brother will take you to choose clothes, buy whatever you like."

Their family was very strict, the monthly allowance had never been abundant, this little bit of money saved had cost him a lot of effort.

There was only one younger sister in the house, so as his cousin, he should naturally be generous.

"Yes." Jiu Zhou nodded, jumping down from the carriage.

Ming Cun Fu looked at his empty hands, then looked at his cousin happily walking into the cosmetics store, he secretly glanced around, and sighed inwardly.

It's fine, as long as no one sees, there's no need to worry about losing face.

As soon as the two siblings entered the door, someone immediately came forward to talk to Ming Cun Fu.

"Brother Ming." This was the first time Zhou Shu Cheng saw Ming Cun Fu bring a girl out alone, he bowed to the person in front of him, "Brother Lin is hosting a banquet at the villa today, why hasn't Brother Ming gone yet?"

"Brother Zhou." Ming Cun Fu responded, "There's been something going on at home recently so I don't have time, please ask Brother Zhou to apologize to Brother Lin for me."

Zhou Shu Cheng thought for a moment and understood.

Recently, Ming Cunfu's father received the imperial order to patrol the south, and his family was afraid that he would neglect his studies, so they assigned him to Ming Jingzhou to teach.

The news of the marriage between Ming Jingzhou's daughter and the Divine King had spread everywhere, so it was no wonder that Ming Cunfu had not stepped out of the house these past few days.

"This young lady..."

"This is my younger sister." Ming Cunfu smiled, "She just returned to the capital, I am the cousin, of course I have to care for her more."

Zhou Shucheng smiled in response, turned around and bowed to Ming Jiuzhou, "Hello, Miss Ming."

The three Ming brothers were extremely close, that year, the eldest brother of the Ming family was framed by a villain, the second and third brothers would rather be implicated and imprisoned than abandon their eldest brother.

In the face of life and death benefits, they still maintained their brotherly affection, which was much better than many other families.

But fate is really unlucky, it is not easy to have a daughter, and yet she is about to marry the Divine King.

Jiu Zhou felt that the way this Young Master Zhou looked at him was a bit off, as if he was looking at a rabbit that had been shot by an arrow, about to be skinned and roasted.

"Your Excellency, take your time."

Hearing the noise, Jiu Zhou raised his head to look upstairs, just in time to meet the eyes of the girl who was coming down.

The girl was stunned, seeing Jiu Zhou smiling at her, she curled her lips and smiled back.

"Big brother, I have already chosen." The girl walked to Zhou Shu Cheng's side, greeted the Ming siblings, "Hello Young Master Ming, Miss Ming."

Here, here, it was the same gaze as looking at the rabbit that was about to be roasted.

After the Zhou siblings left, Jiu Zhou whispered to Ming Cun Fu, "Big brother, does the whole capital know that I was very poor before?"

If not, why would they look at her with that gaze.

Ming Cun Fu, "..."

No, they are just pitying her because the person she is about to marry is not normal.

"Ay." Ming Jiu Zhou sighed, if only she had met these kind people from the capital a little earlier, they would definitely donate some incense money to the temple.

Picking up a few boxes of the most popular lipsticks and powders, Jiu Zhou followed Ming Cun Fu to buy clothes.

The capital was prosperous, and the fabric for making clothes was also highly valued.

Seeing that most of the customers in the store were women, Ming Cun Fu went to the back to drink tea, and let the maid Chun Fen help her try on clothes.

The clothing stores that were frequented by nobles and officials all arranged a resting place for male customers, allowing male customers to wait patiently, making female customers feel secure in choosing clothes.

"Miss's figure is beautiful, so anything she wears will look good." The waitress spoke with a blossoming tongue, every time Jiu Zhou tried on a set, she could always utter different compliments.

"If this set is matched with the latest hairpin, you will definitely become a fairy from the moon, descending to the mortal world." The waitress helped Jiu Zhou fix her dress, "There are jewelry on the third floor, if you like it, you can go up and take a look."

"Miss, today the Sixth Young Master is paying, you have to buy a lot." Chun Fen chuckled and whispered into Jiu Zhou's ear, "Before when the Third Young Master was in the capital, the Sixth Young Master always let the Third Young Master pay for him, you have to spend the money to help the Third Young Master."

According to the seniority of the three families, Ming Cun Fu was ranked sixth, and Jiu Zhou's biological brother Ming Ji Yuan was ranked third.

Although the two siblings had never met, Jiu Zhou had heard many stories about his elder brother from his parents.

"Isn't it too much?" Although Jiu Zhou said that, he honestly walked upstairs.

There aren't many younger sisters who feel guilty about spending their brother's money.

The waitress's smile grew brighter, which waitress hates customers who buy a lot?

There are bracelets, hairpins, jade beads, if there's no one to appreciate them, wouldn't it be lonely?

"Why are your shops full of such mediocre items lately? What's with the golden branch wrapped in flowers, the red pearls and tortoise shell, they're really so mediocre!"

Jiu Zhou lowered her head to look at the golden branch wrapped in flowers hairpin in her hand, she found it very pretty, so she silently turned her head to look at the young man who was talking.

"Only this jade bracelet is acceptable."

Jiu Zhou didn't like that jade bracelet from the beginning, "..."

"Young master, these are all the most popular models today." The waitress smiled and explained, "If young master doesn't like it, we'll show you another model."

"Where did the current trend come from? It's just that recently there was a noble in the palace who liked these designs, so the people in the capital imitated them." The young man sneered, his voice tinged with contempt, he randomly picked out a few things, "Just take these, the others are not needed."

"Miss." The waitress pretended not to hear these words, and asked Jiu Zhou in a low voice, "Do you want to try?"

"Okay." Jiu Zhou handed the hairpin in her hand to the waitress, and picked up the bronze mirror to look at herself.

Her hair was thick and black, the hairpin seemed to be half hidden in her bun, not only was it not vulgar, but it was like stars that accidentally fell on her hair.
