Chapter 448 Stealing Corn

Looking at the letter in Feng Liu's hand, Concubine Jing suddenly felt that she didn't want to eat the melon in front of her anymore, and her brows furrowed.

“Give it to me!”

She stood up slowly, took the letter, and opened it reluctantly. Without exception, it was the same sentence.

Come back to me quickly!

Qin Chuchu stretched her neck to see it, and became even more curious. Isn't it said that the royal family has no true feelings?

But looking at the relationship between the old woman and the emperor, it seems that they are quite good, otherwise they wouldn't speak so casually.

But I just thought about it in my heart. Seeing that the old woman was unhappy, I dared not say anything.

Concubine Jing's brows were furrowed. The old man had sent her several letters. If she didn't reply to any of them, it would seem a bit unreasonable.

I thought about writing him a letter when I get back, so that Old Cui wouldn't be annoyed by the constant emails.

He stuffed the letter into Nanny Jiang's hand and pointed to the melons soaking in the well.

"Is the melon ready?"

She pointed to the cantaloupe soaking in the well. It had been outside for so long that its cavity had dried up from the heat.

“Almost there!”

Qin Chuchu took out the melons and handed one to the old woman.

The two of them squatted in the corner, holding the cantaloupe and started eating. Seeing that they were obedient, Han Muchen looked at his subordinates who were planting vegetables in the distance, and walked over with big strides.

Seeing that the living devil had left, Qin Chuchu used her arm to nudge the old woman beside her.

"Mother, I'll treat you to something delicious later!"

"Huh? What to eat?" Concubine Jing looked up and looked at Qin Chuchu in confusion.

"That's sticky corn. It's delicious when grilled."

Qin Chuchu whispered while secretly staring at the man, looking sneaky, like a thief.

“…………” Concubine Jing frowned.

Looking at the cornfield in front of him, he looked at his daughter-in-law in front of him in confusion. She wondered why she had to eat corn like a thief.

Seeing her thoughts, Qin Chuchu put her mouth close to Jing Fei's ear and said in a low voice:

"Your son won't let you eat them. Let's go over there and break off a few more while he's not paying attention!"

Then she pointed to the man who was directing the vegetable planting in the distance. She found that the sticky corn was edible last time, but the man wouldn't let her.

They said that the corns had been made into seeds and were to be planted in the newly dug greenhouse at the back.

He guarded against her like a thief, watching her closely and not letting her eat a single thing.

She loves sticky corn the most. She drools every time she sees it. It's a good opportunity to eat it secretly with the old woman while she is here.

Even if he is discovered later, he will have something to say. Just say that his mother wants to eat it, and the man will not blame him.

Concubine Jing didn't know what her daughter-in-law was thinking. Although the corn cob in front of her looked quite big, she didn't really want to eat it.

After all, she had eaten roasted corn before, but it was hard and woody, and she really didn't like it.

But seeing that my daughter-in-law wanted to eat so much, I didn't say anything.

Qin Chuchu ate the cantaloupe while staring at the man, ready to take action at any time.

She really got the chance. She saw Han Muchen running towards the group of people in the front, gesturing there, probably teaching something.

Opportunity is rare and will never come back, so Qin Chuchu ran towards the cornfield.

Concubine Jing glanced at Nanny Jiang and Aunt Liu beside her. Although she had no interest in the corn, she still went after Qin Chuchu.

I just like the feeling of being a thief, it’s so exciting!

Nanny Jiang and Aunt Liu looked at each other. Ever since the young lady came, she had really let herself go and no longer looked like a queen.

But they seemed quite happy. Although they lived in luxury in the palace and looked quite glorious to others.

But in fact, life is not easy. Not only do you have to be cautious, but you also have to be on guard against being plotted against at all times.

Unlike here, there is no need to consider those things and the lady can release her true nature.

Soon, Qin Chuchu pulled Jing Fei to the cornfield, stretched her neck to look at the man in the distance, and did not notice this side.

They picked a few large ones and broke them off directly. In order to avoid being discovered, each of them hid a few.

Crouching and hunching his back, he stealthily climbed up from another exit.

Looking at the princess and the queen acting suspiciously, Feng Qi and Feng Liu smiled at each other, pretending they saw nothing.

Qin Chuchu, Jing Fei and the others climbed onto the ground and pedaled their bikes to the nearest hill nearby.

After choosing a flat place, several people started to work, collecting firewood and lighting a fire. After a while, they had burned a large pile of red charcoal.

"Okay!" Qin Chuchu's eyes lit up.

The corn cobs on poles were placed on the red charcoal fire.

"Madam Jiang, Aunt Liu, please keep an eye on it."

As soon as she finished speaking, she stood up from the ground and stretched her neck to look towards the foot of the mountain.

"Chu Chu, what are you looking at?"

Concubine Jing also followed her gaze, but there was nothing at the foot of the mountain, and she didn't know what her daughter-in-law was looking for.

Seeing that there was no situation at the foot of the mountain, Qin Chuchu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"The prince won't come here!"

After saying that, he sat back in his original seat. He hadn't been with them for such a long time, so he thought they hadn't discovered him, so he could eat without worry.

Seeing her daughter-in-law being so cautious, Concubine Jing hesitated for a while, but still asked.

"Chu Chu, are you afraid of Chen'er?"

"Yes, I'm afraid!" Qin Chuchu nodded without hesitation.

"Why? Has he ever hit you?" Concubine Jing asked tentatively.

Seeing the daughter-in-law being so scared of her son, she seemed to be scared to death. Could it be that she had been beaten?

"He didn't hit me, but he pinched me!"

Qin Chuchu said this lightly while turning over the sticky corn in front of her.

"He pinched you?" Concubine Jing was incredulous and anxious, her voice rising a lot.

Although I knew that my son was a cruel man, I always thought that he was only cruel to the enemies on the battlefield and would never hurt his wife. After all, he was very nice to the people.

I really didn't expect that he had the habit of abusing his wife. This is too unexpected.

Seeing that the old woman seemed not to believe what she said, Qin Chuchu quickly put down the sticky corn in her hand and reached for Concubine Jing's neck.

Just as he was about to strangle her neck, he realized that this was inappropriate, so he pulled his hand back and strangled his own neck.

"That's how I was pinched!"

She pinched her neck with her hands, then her eyelids rolled up, her tongue stuck out, and she acted as if she was about to die, which made Concubine Jing frown.

That brat's grip is incredibly strong, how could my daughter-in-law bear it if he pinched her like that?

"Does he pinch you often?"

She looked straight at Qin Chuchu. Seeing her daughter-in-law was so afraid of her son, could this be a common occurrence?

After hearing what Concubine Jing said, Qin Chuchu looked indifferent.

"I was often pinched when I was in exile, but not now."

If the old woman hadn't asked, I would have forgotten about it. When he was exiled, the man was indeed hated, but now he is not so annoying.

“………………”Princess Jing said nothing.

I have to teach my son a lesson when I have time!
