Translator: 549690339
“Alright, Sisi, close your eyes. I have sothing to give you.”
Di Yelei suddenly beca mysterious with a teasing tone.
Liu Sisi put down the small cube she was fiddling with, looked up at his mysterious face and said, “What is it? Why did you suddenly think of giving sothing today?”
“Close your eyes, and I’ll show you in a while!”
Di Yelei insisted, with a suspicious blush on his ears.
“Alright, alright! I’ll close my eyes.”
The stubborn and awkwardly shy man made it impossible for Liu Sisi to refuse.
After a rustling sound, Liu Sisi couldn’t help but, driven by curiosity, secretly opened a slit in her eyes.
She saw Di Yelei turning his back, seemingly taking sothing wrapped from his constable’s clothing, then turned around and walked over. Liu Sisi quickly closed her eyes again.
“Okay, you can open your eyes and see.”
Di Yelei’s deep and llow voice was just near her, and his strong masculine aura continually brushed against her ears, making Liu Sisi’s scalp tingle.
She instinctively dodged and quickly opened her eyes.
“Alright! Can you stop…?”
Her words got stuck in her throat, her gaze fixed on the suddenly appearing object in front of her—a pair of dark brown-yellow pointed high-heeled slope leather boots!
“This…this is…?”
Liu Sisi almost couldn’t speak, instinctively reaching out to grab the boots!
So, there were leather boots in this era? Liu Sisi tried hard to search her mory.
In her mory, it seed that the struggle between the Seven Warring States had also promoted a major revolution in clothing—the short clothes, trousers, and leather boots of the nomadic horse archery equipnt. Since then, these leather boots could be worn on muddy, cold ground and were also suitable for horse riding.
In the subsequent dynasties, the style of leather boots was gradually improved. The styles in the Qin and Han dynasties were male square and female round—square representing masculinity from heaven and round representing gentleness and smoothness, respecting the theory of heaven being square and earth being round.
During the Sui, Tang, and Five Dynasties, won’s leather boots were not only made of colorful leather or pointed short boots made of brocade but also adorned with jeweled decorations on the boot tips. Heels gradually beca higher, with the shoes of noble ladies having the highest towering headgear, with the highest reaching 30 centiters.
In the following Song, Liao, Jin, and Yuan dynasties, the styles of boots beca more and more complicated. They were still mainly boots, including court boots, patterned boots, dry-land boots, nailed boots, and so on.
These fancy boots in her hands at the mont were still awe-inspiring to Liu Sisi!
The deep brown-yellow leather was extraordinarily soft, with many orchid patterns painted on it. The texture of the entire boot was the sa. Liu Sisi touched it and found that the high-heeled slope was actually made of carved wood, filled at the heel of the shoe, and covered with a layer of the sa material leather. The bottom was nailed with a thick wooden sole, and the small pointed toe was particularly soft, making Liu Sisi more and more amazed!
How much would such a pair of leather boots be worth?!
Di Yelei was clearly pleased by the amazent in Liu Sisi’s eyes, and he laughingly scratched the back of his head.
“Do you like them? I noticed that you always walk on the snow in wooden clogs. Your feet soak white in the snow water all day. When I passed by a shoe store, I saw these shoes at a glance. I wanted to give you a surprise, so I secretly asured your old shoes and gave them to the shoe-making master, who specially customized these boots for you…”
However, before he could finish, he saw tears gathering in Liu Sisi’s surprised eyes, quickly turning into lines, rolling down from her eye socket…
Di Yelei was so flustered that he hurriedly wiped her tears, “Sisi, what’s wrong? Don’t you like these boots? Or are you blaming for spending too much silver? But…”
“Ah…No, it’s not!”
Liu Sisi leaned forward and threw herself into Di Yelei’s arms, shaking her head, “You big fool, you big fool!”
Couldn’t he understand that she was happy?
She tiptoed and tightly hugged his neck, her tears flowing down her cheeks, rolling into his neck, almost burning his heart.
Di Yelei was extrely annoyed, if he had known Sisi would be so upset, he definitely wouldn’t have made the decision on his own!
“Sisi, Sisi, don’t be sad anymore. At worst, I’ll work harder for a while and go hunting in the hills again for more ga…”
“Dummy! You’re such a big dummy! Can’t you see I’m happy? I’m so happy that I want to cry…”
Liu Sisi cried and laughed at the sa ti, feeling utterly embarrassed about her appearance right now!
It was only then that Di Yelei breathed a sigh of relief, quickly helping her up and carefully wiping her tears: “Look at you, you scared to death. Quickly stop crying, be good…”
He clumsily patted her shoulder, imdiately making Liu Sisi laugh.
“Crying and laughing, like a puppy peeing.”
Di Yelei blushed: “You cry when you’re sad and cry when you’re happy, I can’t even tell if you’re actually feeling sad or happy.”
“Who, who wants you to figure it out…”
Liu Sisi quickly put away the pair of boots: “Thank you for the gift, I really like it. Really, I really, really like it!” She said seriously.
“I’m glad you like it!”
Di Yelei was also happy in his heart, indeed a woman is like a flower, both need careful care.
During their conversation, she turned around: “But did you know? In our place, lovers shouldn’t give shoes as gifts…”
“What lovers? You and I are husband and wife! Giving shoes was originally a fun activity between husband and wife. Besides, who else would let you give them shoes?” Di Yelei squinted his eyes dangerously.
Oops! She let it slip!
She scolded herself in her heart, only then rembering this wasn’t the next life.
Imdiately her eyes shifted, blinking coquettishly: “Ye——Lei——”
“Hm? What’s the matter?”
Di Yelei raised his eyebrows in surprise.
This annoying fool! Unfortunately, he’s clueless at the most important monts!
Liu Sisi secretly annoyed, couldn’t help but bite her lip, gathered the courage to walk to Di Yelei’s side, and looked up at him with big, teary eyes like a frightened deer.
Di Yelei had no intention of moving, curiously watching her actions, while inwardly laughing his heart out.
Such a shy Liu Sisi was simply too adorable!
“Sisi? What’s the matter?”
Seeing the other party’s tangled brows and no further action, Di Yelei couldn’t help but urge impatiently.
“I…”
Liu Sisi rarely took the initiative, so why would she give up now?
She stood on her tiptoes, slowly getting closer, but because she wasn’t tall enough, she could only nibble ssily on his chin. Not only did she not feel anything, but she was also made uncomfortable by his stubble.
Such an awkward move made Di Yelei suddenly chuckle, pulling her hand in one go.
Liu Sisi’s cheeks turned red with shyness, and she couldn’t help but frown, wanting to retreat.
How could he let the at that’s in his mouth slip away? Di Yelei laughed heartily and hugged her in one go.
On this long night, the affection was still spreading…
