Zhao Huai held Yu Qinghan’s hand as they walked down the street, a gentle breeze carried the faint orchid scent from Yu Qinghan’s body, involuntarily entering the nose, making the mood pleasant.
At this time, on the official road, there were passing carriages, cargo-carrying laborers, hurried pedestrians, and numerous stores one after another, creating a lively scene.
Suddenly, Zhao Huai blinked and saw under Yu Qinghan’s thin gauze shirt, the outline of a koi fish swimming among blue lotuses, wrapping and curving smoothly, making it form-fitting and showcasing the figure perfectly.
He glanced quickly and casually remarked:
“Madam seems to like this style of underwear, it looks suitable for you too.
Why don’t we buy a few more?”
Yu Qinghan lowered her head and looked down, smiling slightly: “It’s because my husband has good taste. This is enough, buying more would just be a waste of money, wouldn’t it?”
“It doesn’t matter. As long as Madam likes them, we can buy as many as we want. Beautiful clothes can never be too many. If those elegant young ladies can wear dozens of them, why can’t my wife?”
Zhao Huai said earnestly, he wouldn’t mind at all—having a new look every day was pleasing to the eye.
Having said that, he led Yu Qinghan to the clothing store they visited before. It seemed to be a shop called Huachun Room.
As soon as the couple entered the store, the shopkeeper greeted them with a smile and recognized Zhao Huai.
“Oh, if it isn’t the young master from last time? Welcome, welcome!”
“You still remember me, shopkeeper?”
Zhao Huai couldn’t help but laugh.
The shopkeeper’s eyes curved in a smile: “Of course, there aren’t many men who come to our store to shop, and with the handsome looks of the young master, how could I forget?”
In her eyes, Zhao Huai was a valued customer; his last purchase had significantly boosted the store’s sales. How could she not welcome him?
The shopkeeper had sharp eyes and noticed Yu Qinghan following behind, smiling as she praised her:
“I presume this must be Madam. Indeed, as beautiful and enchanting as they say.”
“Such a lovely aura, I’m really envious.”
Yu Qinghan, accustomed to the compliments, only gave a faint smile: ‘You flatter me, shopkeeper.”
Although she was in her early twenties, she had long lost the greenness of a young girl, and her distinguished elegance was evident in every gesture she made.
Both had high cultivation levels, which added an ethereal and dustless aura to their appearance.
The shopkeeper shook her head in heartfelt admiration:
“Such a handsome couple with a fated connection, a match made in heaven, and truly rare. Today, whatever the two of you want in the store, I’ll give you a great price.”
Zhao Huai simply regarded it as the shopkeeper’s ability to do business and didn’t decline.
He then began to select clothes in the store. Suddenly, he noticed a box of white silk stockings displayed on the counter, curious, he picked them up and asked:
“What are these, shopkeeper? I didn’t see them last time.”
The shopkeeper glanced and explained: “These are the latest trend, jade silk mesh socks. With summer solstice coming, wearing these will protect you from both mosquitoes and heat. The breathability of the jade silk is excellent.” Zhao Huai held the mesh socks, nodding slightly.
It seemed like the phrase “treading on gentle waves, mesh socks stirring up dust” was referring to these.
“Madam, what do you think?” He then asked for Yu Qinghan’s opinion.
Yu Qinghan felt the material of the socks and couldn’t help but nod slowly, softly smiling:
“Yes, they’re quite nice.”
“We’ll take them.’
“Alright!”
The shopkeeper smiled and quickly packed them up.
Afterward, Zhao Huai continued to select clothes while Yu Qinghan tried each one on.
During the process, he feasted his eyes.
No doubt, with a martial background, Madam’s physique was perfect, no matter the outfit, she could pull it off and fill it out.
She was like a living clothes hanger, how could he let her down—he had to buy them all.
At first, Yu Qinghan was worried about spending too much money.
But after Zhao Huai’s persuasion, she let go of her worries. His extensive property could easily afford a dozen or so outfits, it didn’t hurt at all.
Since he had obtained a hundred Medium Grade Spiritual Stones from Lu Wanqiu, his financial strength had become even more impressive. Buying these clothes was just a drop in the bucket.
Later on, Yu Qinghan no longer held back and started trying on clothes actively.
It seemed that shopping for clothes was indeed a woman’s nature.
Zhao Huai watched his wife in front of a bronze mirror in the store, feeling inexplicably happy.
“To marry such a woman, young master is truly fortunate,” the shopkeeper joked in a flattering tone.
Zhao Huai glanced at the packed jade silk mesh socks, pondered for a moment, and beckoned with a smile: “Come here, shopkeeper.”
“What can I do for you, young master?”
The shopkeeper approached, and Zhao Huai whispered: “I feel the mesh socks you have here are still too conservative.”
“You mean…” The shopkeeper seemed puzzled, not understanding his words.
Zhao Huai hooked the corner of his mouth and smiled faintly: “I have a new type of mesh sock. If you can make it, I guarantee it will sell like hotcakes.”
“Is it true?”
Hearing his words, the shopkeeper’s face was full of surprise. “Of course. Do you have paper and a brush? I’ll draw it for you.”
“Certainly.”
The shopkeeper brought paper and a brush, handing them to Zhao Huai.
Zhao Huai dipped the pen in ink, relying on his memories, began to draw.
The shopkeeper watched the object on the paper become clearer, and her face became increasingly strange.
When Zhao Huai finished, she couldn’t help questioning him: “The object you drew is similar to the mesh socks, but much longer and goes all the way up to the waist?”
Zhao Huai slowly explained: “Its use is not small, depending on the material used, and it will have different functions, such as cold protection, preventing swelling, and sun protection. Of course, these are not its most important functions.”
“Its most important function is to have a magical power that will make couples and lovers fall deeper in love and be more harmonious.”
The shopkeeper exclaimed: “Is it really that magical? What is this item called?” “Black silk.’
“Does this black silk really have such magical powers?” The shopkeeper asked curiously.
“Make it and sell it, then you’ll know,” Zhao Huai replied with a smile,
He added: “Furthermore, if you can make another item I mention, you might even be able to open a branch store in the capital city.”
The shopkeeper’s breathing grew rapid, and she quickly asked: “What is it?”
“Underwear.”
For the rest of the time, Zhao Huai discussed with the shopkeeper about how to make underwear, its advantages, the benefits it would bring to women, and so on.
All in all, the shopkeeper remained half-doubting but did not fully believe in it.
Zhao Huai wasn’t in a hurry; he told her to make the items first, and then they could discuss the sales strategy later.
They also agreed to check the merchandise in a few days.
