Flustered?
Why.
Is Qingi Workshop a place that devours people?
"What’s wrong?" Yun Qian asked curiously.
"Ms. Yun, it turns out... what you said about the Raccoon Ear... wasn’t about a Half-Demon..." The Rowing Maiden buried her head completely in her arms: "I misunderstood."
"Misunderstanding? What misunderstanding." Yun Qian didn’t understand, but she didn’t speak further.
She knew she would find out the things she wanted to know, like the origins of Qingi Workshop, but understanding the world isn’t that simple.
She would inquire from the Rowing Maiden because she was supposed to be one of Xu Chang’an’s destined relationships, so words from her had reference value.
Yun Qian only understood the world through Xu Chang’an and the people around him.
Other information, even if she knew it, was aningless.
So she quietly awaited the maiden’s answer.
"..."
The Rowing Maiden felt the silence around her and secretly looked up at Yun Qian, discovered she was waiting for her to answer, and once again buried her head into her arms.
Qingi Workshop?!
How did she hear such a notorious place from Ms. Yun’s mouth?
It’s a place akin to an abyss for pure maidens, even so Artiste-Courtesans tremble at its ntion.
The maiden was unwilling to answer Yun Qian, as the existence of Qingi Workshop couldn’t be compared to the rouge that everyone used.
She couldn’t voice it, so she pretended to be dead.
But surprisingly... she fell silent, and Miss Yun didn’t speak either.
Inside the room, only Yun Qian’s calm breathing could be heard.
[Ms. Yun... is waiting for .]
The maiden could clearly sense this matter.
Yet...
She clenched her fists.
She truly couldn’t speak.
Just then, as if a distant thunderstorm approached, the sky outside suddenly bood with thunder, causing the maiden’s body to tremble uncontrollably.
She suddenly rembered sothing.
She shouldn’t be like this.
For the sake of the gentleman, Ms. Yun even cared about the rouge and might consider using so intriguing objects to enhance marital affection... isn’t that perfectly normal?
She certainly couldn’t be like this.
Ms. Yun was clearly seeking her help, how could she let a little inexplicable sense of sha ignore Ms. Yun’s appeal?
Does she want Ms. Yun to inquire from other won?
This is about helping the sister to recover... no, to enhance the relationship with the gentleman, so she must be serious.
Insignificant sha, what does it count for!
She thought to herself, here she is rowing at Flower Moon Building, what use would sha have, could it fetch her a few ounces of silver?
"!!!"
"?"
Thus, under Yun Qian’s inexplicably curious gaze, the maiden suddenly sat up, slapped her cheeks mightily twice.
After the delicate face showed two red marks, the Rowing Maiden twisted her hands together, and with a tone of determination stated: "Ms. Yun, please ask."
"...Alright."
Yun Qian didn’t think too much and honestly said: "I heard there’s a place called Qingi Workshop."
The Rowing Maiden nodded: "Yes, it’s at the far end of the first floor of Flower Moon Building, one needs a token to buy things in there, there are many rules."
"Oh." Yun Qian responded, tilting her head, "What kind of place is it?"
The Rowing Maiden, upon hearing this, clasped her fingers to the point of turning pale, yet tried hard to keep her expression calm: "Replying to Ms., it’s a place selling... intriguing objects."
"Intriguing objects?" Yun Qian blinked.
The Rowing Maiden let out a small whimper, only after Yun Qian looked over did she return to normal, biting her lip, she softly said: "They are objects used between couples or maidens in private."
Qingi Workshop was such a place, the things sold there shouldn’t be shown to outsiders.
She had once seen so things in her sisters’ room, glancing at them could truly embarrass soone to death.
She dared not think about how to use such things.
So, goodness knows what she was thinking when she heard this na from Yun Qian earlier.
"Used between couples?" Yun Qian pondered and then asked: "Does gauze count?"
"...Yes." The Rowing Maiden nodded, then froze for a mont.
How could Ms. so naturally speak about gauze...
Ah.
The maiden suddenly rembered.
Unlike her, Miss Yun was already married to the gentleman, so saying such things wouldn’t be shy.
Oh... was she overreacting?
——
"Gauze counts, so does that an Qingi Workshop is no different from Piluo Residence?" Yun Qian further asked.
"How could there be no difference, they are vastly different." The Rowing Maiden drew a large circle with both hands, saying: "Although Qingi Workshop sells gauze and what Ms. ntioned, Raccoon Ear, these are just collateral items, they are the cleanest objects in there."
In other words, the level of these things is the lowest in that place.
The Rowing Maiden only realized Yun Qian wasn’t asking about Half-Demon but the intriguing items worn on the head when Yun Qian ntioned that place.
She summoned all her courage to speak: "Ms. Yun, you and the gentleman are known to be a couple... using so objects doesn’t count for much, if... if there’s interest, just ask the gentleman to get a token from Ms. Zhu, and go- go have a look."
After she spoke, she felt entirely drained, lying on the table like a salted fish.
"Understood." Yun Qian thought Xu Chang’an wasn’t interested, and she naturally wasn’t either, she was just asking.
If she were to be interested in that place, Xu Chang’an would have to express his liking first.
However, Yun Qian asked: "Won’t the pendants sold at Qingi Workshop hurt when worn?"
"Most maidens here are delicate and tender, naturally the materials used are extrely gentle, being so expensive, how could they hurt, it’d be more like, like..." The Rowing Maiden’s face heated, she stopped speaking.
"So you’re saying the earrings made there, even with little clips, won’t hurt?" Yun Qian asked.
"...Earrings?" The maiden was stunned.
"Yes."
"..."
The maiden didn’t speak anymore, she covered her face and after a while lay on the table, muffled, "Ms. Yun, please don’t tease anymore..."
She couldn’t even say the word ’maiden’ anymore.
Yun Qian looked at her without understanding, but finally asked no more.
In fact, it’s a trifle, rely so items sold at Qingi Workshop used by maidens, crafted with excellent materials, so even wearing earrings wouldn’t cause discomfort.
That’s all there is.
As for other things sold there, Yun Qian felt it was quite normal as well.
Small matters, what’s there to be embarrassed about, truly incomprehensible.
Perhaps this is how young girls are?
If she were so easily shy, would her husband like it more?
Yun Qian tilted her head, one hand placed on her face, thinking Xu Chang’an would surely like it, but not [more], because... he was a flirtatious person.
And.
Yun Qian was not interested in Qingi Workshop.
Because her husband thought himself unworthy, even base gauze he wouldn’t accept.
He wouldn’t allow her to use them.
