The season gradually beca warr recently.
The Inner Palace also got past the peak of influenza, and its influence was gradually abating.With this, it was the advent of spring at last.
Yui is mood was great, and her work also progressed smoothly as she admired the beautiful yard while cleaning. The snackss level of deliciousness rose up one level as she ate them while viewing the flowers in the garden.
The flowers of the garden plum trees would fall anyti soon; in exchange, the period of the full blossoming of the cherry trees was also fast approaching, so it was a very impressive sight.
One certain day during the height of spring, she was asked during breakfast at the dining hall about the large-scaled event that was soon to be held.
Cherry Blossom Viewing Banquet?
Yeah, the nobles are holding a feast while admiring the flowers.
Yui i was perplexed as she ate her breakfast, so i Na explained.
At first glance, it was just like the cherry blossom viewing parties, but on this day, a special event would occur that would separate this feast from the others.
Apparently, the grownup children of the emperor who left the Inner Palace were permitted to enter during this day so they could spend it with their mothers.
I see~, so thats why everyones so excited.
Yui i looked around as understanding dawned on her face, and she saw everyone gossiping loudly about which prince was doing what.
For the court ladies, this Cherry Blossom Viewing Banquet was an opportunity to be seen by the various princes.
Yui i couldnt care less about those princes, and shes more concerned about sothing else.
Apparently, the rchants would co soon to open stalls for the won who wanted to dress up during the Cherry Blossom Viewing Banquet.
I want to buy a new hairpin.
Is there a good color of rouge?
The court ladies were itching to go shopping, and they were gossiping here and there.
It seed that though the world might change, the wons love for shopping wouldnt.
Yui i was not particularly interested in accessories, but she wanted to shop.
Bartering self-produced items was the norm in the borderlands, and shopping was an activity far beyond their ans.
Even the wages handed to them in ti for the opening of the booths had currency she never saw before.
She planned to carry out her desire to shop that hadnt been fulfilled yet in this world with all her might.
Will there be sothing good?
Anticipation swelled in her chest, and finally, the long awaited day of the rchants arrival ca.
Alrighty, ti to go shopping!
Yui i speedily finished her work, then she headed towards the square where the stalls were.
Yui i was excited, but she couldnt forget that the Inner Palace was a hierarchical society.
It was also reflected during shopping in the stalls, as the senior court ladies had their turn first. What would happen in the end.
The stalls were completely ransacked by the swarms of court ladies and maids, and only dregs remained.
Well, this is bound to happen, I suppose.
The shopping situation of low ranking court ladies was such that they could only choose from the left-overs.
Yui i already expected this much, so she wasnt too affected.
There was also good fortune among those surplus, so she was excited to find a good bargain.
By the way, the rchants would go directly to the concubines, so they wouldnt co here.
The ladies-in-waiting would also be graced with the favor of shopping there, so the court ladies also dread of that exclusive position.
Those matters should be set aside for now.
She cast a sidelong glance towards the court ladies who desperately looked for accessories among the remaining goods, then she squatted at the stall offering other items aside from ornants.
Judging from the various rchandise displayed compared to the other stalls, it seed that it was not that frequented.
Miscellaneous things such as pots and sewing kits were lined-up at the stall Yui i was looking at.
Apparently, all the items aside from the leading ones were squeezed in here, all mixed-up.
Heh, theres a lot of different stuff.
The rchants gawked curiously at Yui i as she rummaged through the goods, but she ignored them all.
Yui i stared intently at the goods, when a glass bottle containing different colored candies and covered by a pot caught her eye.
This might be good, I can eat one piece every day!
I want to buy this please!
Yui i raised the glass bottle of candies, and the rchant said Thank you for your purchase! with a smile.
Okay, paynt huh
Yui i took out her pouch that she brought as a substitute for a wallet to pay the rchant.
You could have bought other things aside from that.
A males voice ca from above her.
When Yui i looked up, Libin was standing diagonally behind her.
Did Libin also co to buy sothing?
She couldnt think of any other reason why he was here, so she asked.
Im already done at the crown princes palace.
However, the answer was blatantly obvious, and Yui i also agreed, Yeah, I thought so.
So what was he doing here?
Libin extended his hand and dropped so change on the rchants palm, ignoring Yui is bewildered face.
Is this enough?
Yes, more than enough, you still have change.
Eh?
Yui i tilted her head, perplexed at their conversation.
Could the money just now be paynt for the candies?
Why did this guy pay for it?
