After Mu Jue recovered from his slight astonishment, he promised in an honorable manner that since this was the child of the one he loved, he would definitely treat it as if it were his own.
Lord Mo's face was filled with admiration, as curses surfaced in his heart. However, he also felt that there was actually someone more shameless than him in the imperial court. He felt extremely relieved in his heart.
When the two of them came out of the royal study, Mo Jinyuan patted on Mu Jue's shoulder. With Grand Princess's temper, even if your General Mu could defeat half of the enemy's kingdom, she might not agree to this marriage of yours. If she doesn't get married and the Emperor betrothed you to the Grand Princess as a Prince Consort because of this, then you will be a cheap father for nothing. "
"Originally, Mu Jue only said this because he was afraid that his own sister would be punished, but at this moment, he suddenly became interested." "It's fine if you're a cheap dad. I've been fighting and killing outside for so many years, I also want to have a soft meal."
Mo Jinyuan looked at him in disbelief, thinking that he must definitely go back and tell Little County Princess about what happened today.
Duan Xiaohe ordered his men to search the entire bottom of the lake, and in the end, they only found an earring.
"Fill it up again with water and ask for more lotuses. We can still dig up lotus roots next year."
With these words, Duan Xiaohe left with the achievement cultivation.
Her stomach was becoming more and more obvious, and she was becoming more and more lazy. It was getting hot outside and she didn't want to go anywhere. Pregnant women who couldn't eat anything cold almost tortured themselves to death.
After the Little County Princess heard Mo Jinyuan's gossips, he couldn't help but run over and tell Duan Xiaohe everything he heard. Duan Xiaohe raised her eyebrows, her face full of interest.
"Mu Jue really said that?"
"Why are you so happy when I see you?" The Little County Princess opened his eyes wide, "Mu Jue said those words in order to protect Mu Qing, and that was why he said those words.
Duan Xiaohe was secretly pleased, she patted her stomach and nodded: "That's fine too, to be able to find such a capable, cheap father for a child like me, let alone me, I can still be their sister-in-law. I think it's quite suitable. "
Little County Princess rolled his eyes, "I think you want to go through the door to anger the two of them to death."
After resting for a while, Little County Princess came over again, "I heard that you have something delicious to eat, why don't you give me a bowl of it?"
Duan Xiaohe could not help but laugh and tell Rui Dong to bring her a bowl of fruit ice. She longed for the taste, but she couldn't eat it now, so she had to turn her head to the window. After staring blankly for a while, he suddenly recalled something.
"I heard that there was an embroidery competition in the capital. Who got the first prize?"
Little County Princess's mouth was filled with ice, he only felt his entire body turning ice-cold and comfortable. After hearing her question, he finally looked up and said: "You don't know, your Fancy Dress's reputation is too big, I heard that you invited them twice but still didn't come. As for when we'll compete and when we'll do so, I really don't know. "
Duan Xiaohe sighed, Fancy Dress was not something that could be done with a great face, there was simply no one who could do such a thing. The entire Great Chong only consisted of the two big families, and the rest were all individual owners of embroidery. Since there was nothing good about the two families, the competition naturally had to be pushed back.
Speaking of Begonia, Duan Xiaohe sighed again.
Little County Princess had already finished one bowl, and was about to ask Rui Dong for the second bowl. Duan Xiaohe advised her to not eat too many cold food as it would be bad for her health. Little County Princess did not think so. It was not good to faint from the heat, eating hot days was naturally eating cold food, there was no need to eat less.
Duan Xiaohe glanced at her stomach. Only then did Little County Princess understand what she meant, and her face immediately turned red. Duan Xiaohe's heart skipped a beat, she did not say anything incredible either. With her understanding of the Little County Princess, she shouldn't have such thin skin!
Something was wrong!
After messing around with the Little County Princess for a while, Duan Xiaohe asked again whether she had succeeded with Mo Jinyuan. Little County Princess, on the other hand, was very thin-skinned, putting down her empty bowl and saying that she was going home.
Not long after Little County Princess left, Rui Dong came in to say that there were new goods in the Shangyi Store. It was just that yesterday, the shopkeeper came back and delayed for a day, so she specially picked two sets of newly made clothes to apologize.
"Princess, she is still waiting outside. Do you want to see her or not?"
Duan Xiaohe was startled, "The owner of the Shangyi Store?"
Rui Dong nodded, and said that was what the people outside said.
"Is Shangyi Store's shopkeeper a man or a woman?"
"I heard it was a woman. She said she went back to the countryside a while ago and just came back yesterday."
Duan Xiaohe's heart skipped a beat and she quickly let Rui Dong bring him in. The young man in front carried a red plate in her hand and inside the tray were two pieces of exquisite clothes.
"She only took a single glance before standing up excitedly." Yao Zhen! "
Hearing someone calling his name, Yao Zhen raised his head. Seeing that it was Duan Xiaohe, he was so shocked that the thing in his hand almost fell to the ground. After what happened yesterday, Rui Dong did not dare to be careless, as he was afraid that the Shangyi Store people would harm Duan Xiaohe. Just as he was about to call for someone, Duan Xiaohe told her to wait outside.
Rui Dong was not at ease, she saw that Duan Xiaohe was only staring at Yao Zhen, and repeated the words for her to leave, so she could only bring the little boy from Shangyi Store with her and wait.
When they left, Duan Xiaohe rushed in front of Yao Zhen and grabbed his arm tightly. Begonia is back? "
The emotions in Yao Zhen's eyes changed over and over again, and a moment later, they were completely covered up by the shock in the depths of his eyes.
"You … "You're actually …"
Duan Xiaohe clenched her teeth, and asked again: "Has the transvestite really returned?"
Yao Zhen looked away and did not reply to her words. Duan Xiaohe's heart was finally at ease, and he suddenly heaved a sigh of relief. Good to be back. She's in the Shangyi Store now? I'll go with you to see her. "
She anxiously wanted to go outside, but Yao Zhen stopped her. Duan Xiaohe's heart thumped, "What happened to the Begonia?"
She wanted to bite her tongue off when she asked such a stupid question, but wasn't Yao Zhen resenting her even more?
Sure enough, Yao Zhen's face was cold and icy at the same time, "You actually have the face to ask such a question."
Duan Xiaohe's heart was ruthlessly pierced, "Is she still okay?"
At the mention of the Begonia, Yao Zhen's expression once again changed to one of grief and pity, his heart aching. She's a lot better than you think, thank you Princess. "
As he said that, he placed the thing in his hand on the table, and unknowingly saw the lower abdomen of Duan Xiaohe. After being stunned for a moment, he turned and left the room.
When Rui Dong saw that the person had left, she immediately ran in. Seeing that Duan Xiaohe seemed to be in a daze, she shouted: Princess, the people from Shangyi Store are leaving, do you want to stay?
"Let them go."
Duan Xiaohe picked up the clothes that Yao Zhen had placed on the table. The material was the best, with delicate stitches. There were a few slight changes, and the style was somewhat the same as the Fancy Dress, but it also had its own taste.
She rubbed her hands on her clothes unwillingly for a while, wondering if these clothes were made by the Begonia, or her embroidery lady. Since this outfit was made so well, it's no wonder that Shangyi Store's business is so flourishing.
"Go and prepare, I want to go to Shangyi Store."
Rui Dong was a little worried about her body. The imperial physician had told her that she could not continue tormenting with her body, and had also advised her to directly recruit anyone she wanted to see based on her status. Duan Xiaohe shook her head, she stubbornly wanted to go over personally.
When Rui Dong was done preparing, Duan Xiaohe walked to the door, looked at the extravagant carriage and frowned, then told Rui Dong to prepare a lower profile ordinary carriage.
A moment later, an extremely ordinary carriage stopped in front of Shangyi Store.
The business inside the Shangyi Store were as good as ever. The shop assistants ran back and forth carrying small pieces of cloth, Yao Zhen was standing at the front counting the bill, behind his, a female wearing a blue dress was bowing her head and talking to a few young ladies, talking about something without knowing what, and laughing together.
Duan Xiaohe's ears were filled with her thumping heart sounds. She could not be more familiar with that figure, it was Begonia. She felt guilty and didn't dare to go in, as she was afraid that the transvestite would point at her nose and scold her.
She really didn't dare to face Begonia, but she also wanted to see Begonia …
Rui Dong carefully looked at her expression, not daring to disturb her, and just accompanied her as she stood by the door and watched with the sun in the sky. Seeing that their clothes could be calculated as well, some employees decided to treat them as rich people and welcomed them. It just so happened that Begonia raised her head to look over and the two gazes met.
Duan Xiaohe suddenly felt a sense of guilt and wanted to escape, so she quickly took a step back and almost stepped on the first step, causing Rui Dong and the servant to come over and support him.
Yao Zhen also noticed it from the side. Seeing that the Begonia was about to go to the door, he was afraid that something might happen to the two sides, so he stopped her. He didn't know what Begonia said to him, but Yao Zhen went to the side and called the shop assistant in as well.
"I heard …" Your identity is different now. "
Duan Xiaohe wanted to open her mouth to say something, but before she could do so, her nose started to sour. "I …"
"The Begonia moved to the side." "Come in, what are you standing at the door for?"
Duan Xiaohe was a little shocked. Last time, the flower still hated him so much, but this time she almost caused her to die, why did she have such a reaction?
The Shangyi Store had two floors, and those with more esteemed status like Begonia all went up and sat down as well, to discuss all sorts of details in detail. Duan Xiaohe followed her up the stairs, and nervously squeezed out three words. "I'm sorry."
"You are a dignified princess of the Great Chong, yet you actually lowered your head and told me you were sorry."
Duan Xiaohe looked at her worriedly, "I heard that you left with Qin Rui?"
