Xia Zhi smiled and said, "Miss Yura, thank you for reminding me, but I really do like these flower wreaths..."
Yura frowned, then relaxed and said, "You... never mind... if you really want to buy it, then buy it as you please."
Xia Zhi paid the money, picked up a flower wreath, and handed it to Youla.
Yura asked, puzzled, "What are you doing?"
Xia Zhi said, "I'll give you one."
Yura refused: "I don't need it."
Xia Zhi smiled and said, "Take it. Consider it a gift from me since it's our first meeting. There are plenty here, so everyone can have some."
Xia Zhi placed the flower wreath in Yura's hand, and then began handing out flower wreaths to the girls.
"thank you boss!"
"This is the first time I've ever worn jewelry that costs 10,000 Mora!"
"Me too!"
On the other side, Xia Ci had already arrived at the fortune-telling stall set up by True Lord Xiaoyue, looking at the old Mora on it with great interest.
The Moon-Slicing True Monarch felt a chill run down his spine and asked in a low voice, "Miss Xia Ci, what's wrong with you...?"
Xia Ci asked, "How do you interpret this divination?"
The True Lord of the Moon said, "It depends on what you're calculating. It costs 10,000 Mora to calculate marriage, and 20,000 Mora to calculate your future."
Xia Ci asked curiously, "How come the marriage is half price?"
The True Lord of the Moon said, "We're having a promotion, there are discounts available."
Xia Ci nodded: "I see. I'm going to participate in a dance competition today and I'd like you to do a fortune telling for me to see if I can win the championship."
True Lord of the Moon-Slicing Sect wiped his sweat: "This..."
Xia Ci gave a half-smile: "Can it be counted?"
With a pained expression, True Monarch Xiaoyue whispered, "Please don't make things difficult for me... Mr. Xia is calling you!"
Xia Ci clicked her tongue and turned to leave: "Cousin's here!"
The Moon-Slicing True Lord finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Xia Zhi carefully placed the flower wreath on Xia Ci's head.
Her already beautiful face instantly became even more stunning.
"Thank you, cousin."
Xia Ci smiled with her eyes narrowed, her long eyelashes trembling slightly, like tender leaves swaying in the wind with dew on them. The smile blooming on her red lips was like a blooming Patisha orchid, revealing a captivating charm.
Yura stared at Xia Ci, her expression momentarily blank.
She suddenly had a strange feeling that her stunning smile made everything else on the street pale in comparison.
Fortunately, Xia Ci's alluring smile only lasted for a moment.
"Is it pretty, cousin?"
"I can't see it."
"Um……"
Xia Ci pursed her lips, as if noticing Youla's gaze, and turned to look at Youla, asking, "Miss Youla, do you think I look good like this?"
Yura snapped out of her daze and calmly replied, "It was beautiful. For a moment just now, I felt like a goddess had descended upon us."
Xia Ci blinked, then covered her mouth and laughed again: "Miss Yura is indeed a noblewoman, she really knows how to compliment people."
Strangely, although Xia Ci is smiling again, Yura no longer feels that captivating feeling she had just had.
Perhaps it was just my imagination.
Yura lowered her head, looking at the expensive yet simple flower wreath in her hand.
This thing, which I could easily weave myself, and even make look better, actually cost five thousand Mora...
When did money become so easy to make?
Do people from Liyue just like this type?
The Lawrence family is now dirt poor, but those stubborn family members still cling to their useless pride and refuse to lower their aristocratic status to do ordinary work, relying entirely on themselves to earn money outside to support the family.
The meager salary from the Knights Order was certainly not enough, and even though she rarely got a day or two off, she still had to go to the Adventurers' Guild to accept quests. Come to think of it, today was the first real day off she had all year...
Why don't I wait until the morning competition is over, then go outside in the afternoon to pick some Cecilia flowers, and try to weave some wreaths like these to sell on the street?
Five thousand Mora is definitely not enough to sell it; Mr. Xia was clearly helping his friend's business.
But if it's 50 Mora, maybe other travelers from Liyue would be willing to buy it, as for the locals of Mondstadt, they definitely wouldn't even give me a second glance...
Yura pondered silently for a while, then looked up and saw that everyone was wearing a flower wreath on their heads.
Adorned with flower wreaths, everyone seemed to have become even more beautiful than before, according to Yura.
Amber called out to her, "Yura, you wear it too."
Yura hesitated for a moment: "...Yes."
She put the flower wreath in her hand on her head.
It felt like a gentle breeze was blowing past my ear.
Yura casually gathered a strand of her hair.
The frustration I had just felt over the family's troubles inexplicably subsided.
We'll see. Let's go participate in the competition first.

The alchemy laboratory of the Knights of Favonius.
Sugar was diligently studying the [Breath of Happiness] and [Twilight Mushroom] at the workbench.
Abedo came out of the inner room, carrying an easel and painting tools on his back.
Sugar heard the voice, looked up at him, and asked, "Mr. Abedo, are you going out?"
Abedo nodded and said, "I suddenly felt like going out for a walk and see if I could find some good scenery."
"Oh!"
"How's the research on the problem going?"
"I already have some results!"
"Well, keep working hard."
"I will!"
Abeldo left the laboratory and headed out of the city.
On the way, he heard many pedestrians discussing the dance competition.
Aberdo wasn't very interested in this; he preferred to paint alone in a quiet place rather than join in the fun.
Crossing the street, a group of stalls were hawking their wares.
Aberdo often walks this street, and he remembers that there weren't these vendors here before.
This is quite normal, as there are many people during holidays and people have a high desire to consume, so naturally there are many people selling things.
Aberdo glanced at the items being sold by the vendors.
It's very mixed.
There were vendors selling toys, animal hides, alcohol, fruits and vegetables, and even fortune tellers.
Abedo's gaze swept past the fortune teller's stall and landed on another stall next to it.
This stall is quite unique; it has no goods displayed on it, except for a "painting" character written in a flamboyant style hanging in front of it.
A middle-aged man was sitting behind the stall, chatting with the fortune teller next door.
Abedo walked over to the stall, stood in front of the beautifully written character for "painting" for a few seconds, and asked, "Excuse me, is this a place to sell paintings?"
Li Shui Zhenjun turned his head, looked at the first customer who had come to the door, and put on a business-like smile: "That's right."
Abedo asked, "Since it's a stall selling paintings, where are the paintings?"
Master Lishui picked up the brush on the table and replied calmly, "The painting is under my brush."
Abedo asked, "Painting on the spot?"
True Lord Lishui nodded: "That's right."
Abedo then asked, "What kind of painting?"
Master Lishui confidently stated, "Any kind of painting is acceptable."
A hint of interest appeared in Abedo's eyes, and he asked, "What can you draw?"
