Chapter 621: Tianjizi's Human Head(2)_1

When it came time to pay, before Cai Wei could even pull out her money, Jiujin was quick to hand over a piece of broken silver to the shopkeeper. He insisted on picking up the tab and once the bill was paid, he swiftly left the shop with a few pastries.

Following behind Jiujin, Cai Wei had barely taken a few steps out of the door when she spotted a middle-aged woman approaching. This woman, wearing a bright red silk dress and a large red flower in her hair, swung her hips exaggeratedly as she walked.

Though Cai Wei did not know the woman, her ornate outfit and heavy makeup suggested her identity. Her round face was heavily powdered, her wide mouth painted a red, suggestive of a sausage. When she spoke or laughed, flakes of powder would fall, revealing a set of unevenly spaced yellow teeth. These features, all together, pointed to her being a traditional matchmaker of the ancient times.
