Chapter 219 Old Man, Can We Be More Reserved?

In the room.

"Aunt, my dad is a germaphobe, and his room is disinfected regularly."

"So, just stay here and relax."

"This cabinet is full of medicinal herbs, and these books are all medical books..." Jiang Ruo spared no effort to "promote" Sheng Yunshao.

Princess Anran looked around the room and nodded with satisfaction.

Especially the faint medicinal fragrance, which made her feel inexplicably at ease.

She looked at Jiang Ruo's slightly tired face and said distressedly: "Ruo Ruo, you and Jin'er haven't slept all night, go and rest quickly!"

Jiang Ruo's mind moved, and he took out the two bundles from the space.

"Aunt, you're new here and not familiar with the place, so let Dongxue take care of you for now."

"With her taking care of you, we can feel more at ease."

Princess Anran nodded upon hearing this.

Jiang Ruo came to the yard and whispered to Dongxue, "Dongxue, you will be the one taking care of your aunt recently. Thank you for your hard work."

Dongxue chuckled, "Don't worry, Master. These are what a servant should do."

"I will serve Her Royal Highness the Princess well." After saying that, Dongxue turned and went to the room.

Jiang Ruo looked at Dongxue's departing back and chuckled softly with her hands covering her lips.

Dongxue is so sensible, I will reward her with a good husband when the time comes.

Sheng Yunshao said to Steward Lin and the others, "Go back to sleep."

"Yes, sir."

Butler Lin and the others knew that Sheng Yunshao was a little embarrassed, so they all went back to their rooms.

Sheng Yunshao looked around the lighted rooms with a depressed look on his face.

"Girl, it's still early in the morning. I can't just stand here and wait!"

Jiang Ruo said with a wicked smile: "Old man, the opportunity is right in front of you, you must cherish it!"

"How about this, I'll put a soft couch in the side room of the front hall, and you can stay there for a few days."

"You can also go to the space to sleep."

Sheng Yunshao laughed, "No need to go to the space, sleeping in the side room is also good."

Jiang Ruo walked to the side room of the front hall in the dark, lit a candle, and took out a soft couch from the space.

"Girl, go to bed. You have dark circles under your eyes." Sheng Yunshao said as he tidied up the small couch.

Jiang Ruo looked smug when he heard this.

"Before we came here last night, we went for a stroll around the palace."

"The entire palace, no, the entire capital city, was in action. The scene was incredibly lively."

After Jiang Ruo finished speaking, she left the front hall.

Sheng Yunshao looked at Jiang Ruo's departing figure and said with emotion: "Alas, it's still good to be young!"

When Jiang Ruo returned to the room, she saw Xiao Chengjin lying on the bed with a "well-behaved" look on his face.

"Why aren't you sleeping yet?"

"Waiting for you." Xiao Chengjin said with a smile as warm as spring breeze.

Jiang Ruo: "..."

Is he seducing herself?

"Ruoruo, if you don't sleep now, it will be dawn." Xiao Chengjin said, closing his eyes.

Jiang Ruo scratched his head, turned around and closed the door.

He muttered, "I'm overthinking."

She went to the side room, changed into a set of underwear, and came to the bed happily.

Jiang Ruo lowered the curtain, lay down next to Xiao Chengjin, and said teasingly, "So well-behaved!"

Xiao Chengjin held Jiang Ruo in his arms and kissed her forehead gently, "Go to bed early!"

Perhaps because they were tired, they fell asleep quickly.

The imperial guards who were patrolling the streets of the capital were exhausted after running around the city all night.

Most importantly, they didn't find anything.

Qin Zhen looked at the sky and led his brothers into an alley.

"No, I'm exhausted tonight."

"Let's just say, is he that powerful enough to be caught by us?"

"Don't be stupid next time. You almost broke my legs."

......

Qin Zhen listened to their whispers and snorted coldly.

I didn't want to look for you in the first place, but you guys are all like idiots and I can't stop you.

Is it so easy to achieve this merit?

Qin Zhen thought of the "strange things" that happened when he went to Jizhou, and felt a little puzzled.

For some reason, he always felt that this matter was related to that person in Jizhou.

No, I must be overthinking it.

"Okay, let's take a break and wait for the shift change." After Qin Zhen finished speaking, he leaned against the wall and closed his eyes to rest.

The atmosphere in the palace was also somewhat depressed.

They believed that Xiao Junze had stayed in the cold palace for two nights in order to catch the thief.

The result was good, not a single ghost was seen.

Before we get the throne back, be smart!

If you are not careful, you will lose your head.

Huaxi Village.

Early in the morning, Dongxue quickly helped Princess Anran wash and change her clothes.

"Dongxue, don't let me wear these pearl hairpins." Princess Anran said with a slight smile.

It’s better to keep a low profile in the village.

"Yes, my master." Dongxue put the pearl hairpin in her hand into the box, found a jade hairpin with a more plain color, and gently inserted it into Princess Anran's bun.

Looking at the gentle beauty in the bronze mirror, Dongxue thought secretly: No wonder the master didn't go home, it turns out he was fascinated by Her Royal Highness the Princess.

"Master, after breakfast, I will take you for a stroll around the village."

Dongxue caught a glimpse of Sheng Yunshao strolling in the yard from the window, and her eyes rolled.

"By the way, the master has lived in the village for more than ten years. Let him take you for a stroll!"

Princess Anran raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard this.

It's really safe to hide here.

I just don't know when he came.

Sheng Yunshao was strolling in the yard, but his heart had already flown into the room.

Why haven’t you come out yet?

“Squeak!”

As soon as the door opened, Sheng Yunshao's body stiffened.

He quickly walked forward, smiled, and asked considerately, "Did you sleep well?"

"It's pretty good." Princess Anran said, looking around the yard.

Sheng Yunshao glanced at the smirking Dongxue and coughed lightly, "Let's go have breakfast first."

After the three of them arrived at the dining hall, Madam Liu and the others quickly bowed and said, "Servants greet the master."

"No need to be so polite!" Princess Anran was supported by Dongxue and sat in the main seat.

Sheng Yunshao sat next to Princess An Ran and picked up the serving chopsticks to serve her food...

Princess Anran looked around and asked softly, "Ruoruo and Jin'er..."

"They both like to sleep in, let's eat first." Sheng Yunshao put down his chopsticks.

If you wait any longer, the food will get cold.

Steward Lin and his companions: "......"

Master, you have changed.

The two "sleeping-in" people walked to the door and glanced at each other secretly.

Otherwise, let’s go back and take a nap.

Jiang Ruo looked at Sheng Yunshao's admiring eyes and held her forehead helplessly.

Old man, can we be a little more reserved?

Xiao Chengjin snorted, took Jiang Ruo's hand and walked into the dining room, then sat down at the table.

"Aunt, are you used to it?" Xiao Chengjin said as he served Jiang Ruo the food very naturally.

Who doesn’t know how to show kindness?

Princess Anran looked at the two people who suddenly appeared and said with a smile, "Not bad."

Jiang Ruo glanced at Sheng Yunshao, then at Xiao Chengjin's slightly smug face, and immediately understood something.

"Auntie, let's eat first."

Alas, I am becoming more and more childish.

.......

After breakfast.

Sheng Yunshao accompanied Princess Anran for a walk.

Jiang Ruo and his companions prepared welfare for the grain shop employees...

Looking at the dozen or so packed gift boxes, Jiang Ruo called An Er.

"Later, you can deliver these gift boxes to the clerks at the grain stores in town and city, and tell them they are Mid-Autumn Festival benefits."

"By the way, just tell them to close up and go home!"

"Yes, Master."

An Er was thinking about going to the city to buy a gift for Dong Xue...

Hehe, it’s a good opportunity to handle both official and personal matters at the same time.
