Bei Gong Tang looked at Sima You Yue’s smirking appearance, and felt that this guy was really bad sometimes. But fortunately, she never used it on people on her side.
However, she believed that even if You Yue had a bit of bad heart, as long as they became her people, she would treat them well.
“Come over.” Sima You Yue suddenly pulled Bei Gong Tang into a small shop on the side. They hid behind the door frame and looked sideways at the people walking on the street.
“This Nalan Lan’s luck is really good. She schemed to hurt you. When you came back, she was taken to the Primordial Lands and possessed that physique. Her cultivation speed is not slower than us.” Bei Gong Tang said.
“Her physique is one of the reasons. Sage Pavilion’s strength is also another factor. You can see from my Senior Brother, if they want to cultivate a person, they’re willing to spend a lot of effort.” Sima You Yue whispered while looking outside.
“She schemed against you the last time. Are you going to have your revenge?”
“Of course.” Sima You Yue said. “I have an intuition that she is the enemy of my life. If I don’t get rid of her now, I’m afraid there will be a lot of trouble in the future.”
“She doesn’t know that we’re here. This time, she is in the light, while we’re in the dark. We must plan well and take our dues.”
“That’s right!”
Nalan Lan, who was talking to her servant, felt two eyes were on her. They we’re not the same as being worshiped or loved. Rather they penetrated deep in her soul. She frowned and looked back, not seeing anyone.
“Holy daughter, what are you looking at?” The maid looked at her and also glanced back.
“Nothing. Let’s go. Senior brother is waiting for us to go back.” Nalan Lan turned and walked on, but the suspicion in her heart did not disappear.
Sima You Yue and Bei Gong Tang were plastered to the wall. They were finally relieved after she went away.
“Her divine sense has improved a lot.” Bei Gong Tang said.
Sima You Yue nodded. It seemed that Nalan Lan had made great progress in recent years!
“Are you two here to buy something or not?” The waiter came over and looked at the two unhappily.
They came in for a while, not even looking at the things sold. Instead they peeped at the people outside the door. They certainty weren’t good people.
Sima You Yue took a look. This small shop actually sold spirit cloth. She didn’t notice it when she passed by a few days ago, but today, they accidently barged in.
“Since we came in, we naturally would take a look at what you have here.” Sima You Yue wasn’t embarrassed from being caught peeping. She carefully examined the spirit cloth.
The so-called spirit cloth is a cloth woven from the silk of the spirit silkworm. Clothes made with spirit cloth possessed innate defense ability. But this defense ability is incomparable to defensive spirit weapons.
There were no spirit silkworms in the continent below. After recovering her memory, she hadn’t considered this object. Now seeing a shop selling spirit cloth, she suddenly recalled.
“Bei Gong, let’s go. Let’s see how the spirit cloth are.” She grabbed Bei Gong’s hand and walked over.
Bei Gong Tang had seen Gu Yun Er and them wearing clothes made of spirit cloth, so she knew what they were. But she didn’t expect to find spirit cloth being sold in Green City. Back then, Gu Yun Er had purposely showed off her clothes made of spirit cloth in her courtyard, indicating spirit cloth was not so common.
“I didn’t expect there are so many kinds of spirit cloth here. Let’s buy some for everyone. How about it?” Bei Gong Tang liked all kinds of interesting things and she was extremely happy as she looked at the selection before her.
“Alright.” Sima You Yue quickly agreed. Naturally, everyone would want a share of good things.
She picked up a piece of spirit cloth and wanted to see the pattern on it. She saw a familiar stitch and was shocked.
In a trance, she once again saw a gentle and demure woman under the sun holding an embroidery and needle.
A girl rashly entered the courtyard and saw the embroidering lady. She slowed her pace down subconsciously.
“You Yue, where did you go?” The lady asked without moving her focus from her needlework.
Ximen You Yue walked behind her, wrapping around her neck and hugging her. She grinned, “Third Aunt, your embroidery is really amazing.”
“I let you learn from me but you won’t.” The lady put down her needlework and spirit cloth. She patted Ximen You Yue’s hand, trying to lobby her again.
“Please forgive me, Third Aunt.” Ximen You Yue affectionately cuddled the lady. “You know I don’t have the talent.”
“Where are you not talented, you are just lazy. You are interested in your cooking and herbs.”
“It’s really talentless!” Ximen You Yue let go of Third Aunt. She crouched down in front of her. “Third Aunt, you’ve seen my embroidery. Your embroidery stitches can be seen from both sides. But when I embroidered, it’s on the opposite side!”
The lady couldn’t help but chuckle at Ximen You Yue’s failure at that time.
“Third Aunt, your needlework is so good. The flowers and plants seemed to come alive with your embroidery.” Ximen You Yue loved seeing the flowers she embroidered.
“This stitch is unique to my Du family. Our method is different from others. Look here, everyone else is threaded so, while our Du family stitch method is like this..”
Bei Gong Tang found several pieces and wanted to discuss the flower colors with Sima You Yue when she saw her in a daze at the spirit cloth.
“You Yue, what’s wrong?” She touched SIma You Yue’s hand gently, pulling her from her recollection.
Sima You Yue blinked her slightly moist eyes. She reluctantly smiled, and asked, “What’s wrong?”
“What happened to you just now? You look pale.” Bei Gong Tang asked with worry.
“Nothing, I just remembered the past.” Sima You Yue replied. “Did you say something?”
Bei Gong Tang knew she would be like this when she recalled the past. She showed the spirit cloth in her hand. “What do you think of this?”
“Not bad.” Sima You Yue looked at the spirit cloth in her hand. “It’s quite suitable for you.”
Bei Gong Tang wanted to say that this was chosen for her. But thinking that she was still dressed as a male, she accepted her words.
“The spirit cloth is simple and elegant. Different styles can be made from it for different people. We’ll buy some back, and then we’ll make a set for mother and Aunt Yu, and we’ll wear the family clothes you talked about.”
“Okay.” Although Sima You Yue smiled, she wasn’t excited.
Bei Gong Tang went to pick another spirit cloth. Sima You Yue walked around the shop. She asked the waiter who looked placidly at them. “The spirit cloth is very good and the needlework is unique. Can I meet your embroideress?”
The waiter glanced at her and replied, “No our boss doesn’t meet customers. If you want to buy it, buy it. If not, don’t stick around here.”
“Wu’er, didn’t I tell you not to treat customers like this?” A soft voice came from the inner room. When Sima You Yue heard the voice, her eyes moistened.
