51 Pomegranate Blossoms



When Xiaozhuang heard the big man's sarcasm, his face immediately changed, and he stood up to settle the score with the big man.

Gu Xinglang pressed Xiaozhuang's hand and shook his head.

Seeing that Gu Xinglang was about to hold back his anger, Xiaozhuang couldn't help but hurriedly said, "Prince Consort!"

"Now is not the time to cause trouble," Gu Xinglang said to Xiaozhuang.

"I……"

"Your Highness is right," Xiao Wei glared at Xiao Zhuang and whispered, "Are you worried that Prime Minister Zhao and the others won't be able to find fault with you and the princess? Do you think the princess has too few worries now?"

Xiaozhuang remained silent.

"If I were Gu Xinglang, I would smash my head against the wall and die in the prison to prove my point," Young Master Gu didn't want to cause trouble, but that didn't mean the big man at the table would shut up. The burly man with a big beard slammed the table and said, "What's the point of relying on a woman for a living? Damn it, I just can't stand this kind of coward, I..."

Xiaozhuang listened to the burly man cursing Gu Xinglang with spit flying, and he couldn't help but get angry, so he slapped the table.

The bearded man was talking excitedly when he heard someone slap the table next to him. He looked over at Gu Xinglang's table and said, "Are you Gu Xinglang?"

Xiao Zhuang shouted at the sturdy man: "Shut up!"

"Oh," the sturdy man said, "Are you really the prince consort? Your legs look fine, not lame."

Xiao Wei felt really sorry for Gu Xinglang at this moment. Gu Xinglang was probably the first royal son-in-law to be vilified like this.

Gu Xinglang lowered his head and ate the wontons slowly. Others could not see what expression this Third Young Master Gu had at the moment.

The strong man said to Xiaozhuang, "Your Highness, your eyes are wide open. Are you planning to take action?"

Xiaozhuang slammed the table and stood up.

"Xiao Zhuang, what's wrong with you?" Yu Xiaoxiao came over with an empty bowl. Seeing that Xiao Zhuang looked like he was about to fight, she asked.

When Xiao Wei saw Yu Xiaoxiao coming back, he had a bad feeling and wanted to stop Xiaozhuang, but unfortunately he failed. Xiaozhuang directly said to Yu Xiaoxiao: "Master, they are swearing!"

Yu Xiaoxiao glanced at the four big men and said, "Who did they scold?"

Xiaozhuang ran up to Yuxiaoxiao and whispered, "They are scolding the Prince Consort."

Gu Xinglang looked up and said to Yu Xiao: "Are you full? If you are, let's go back."

"So he's also a scumbag who relies on women," the bearded man laughed when he saw Xiaozhuang running up to Yu Xiaoxiao and talking with his back bent. He said, "I was wondering if all the men in the capital city are scumbags who rely on women to make a living?"

Yu Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows and looked at Xiaozhuang.

Xiaozhuang said, "That's how they cursed the Prince Consort just now!" Xiaozhuang repeated to Yu Xiaoxiao word for word what the strong man had said to curse Gu Xinglang.

When Xiaozhuang was reporting the situation to Yu Xiaoxiao, Xiaowei whispered to Gu Xinglang, "Your Majesty, these four people don't look like officials. They dare to speak like this in the capital. Their identities are suspicious."

After listening to Xiao Wei's words, Gu Xinglang looked at the four burly men. They were all muscular and had the muscular build of martial artists. They were dressed like ordinary people, but they had a rustic air about them. Upon closer inspection, Gu Xinglang felt that these four men looked familiar.

"He doesn't look like a good person," Xiao Wei said to Gu Xinglang.

"Who are you?" Gu Xinglang asked the bearded man.

The sturdy man took a look at Gu Xinglang's feet wrapped in thick gauze, sneered with disdain, and squinted at Yu Xiao: "Who are you trying to stand up for, young lady?" The sturdy man pointed at Xiao Wei: "Is it this loser, or..." The sturdy man pointed at Gu Xinglang again: "Or this cripple?"

Xiaozhuang got furious. He thought he would be letting himself down if he didn't beat the bastard to death today!

Yu Xiaoxiao's movements were faster than Xiaozhuang's. When Xiaozhuang had only drawn half of his sword, Yu Xiaoxiao had already reached the strong man. With one hand holding a bowl of wonton soup on the table, she poured them on the strong man's head.

The people around were silent.

The wonton soup at Wang Po's house was very fresh and delicious, but after it was poured all over someone's head and face, it was no longer a question of whether it tasted good or not. The strong man let out a strange cry and jumped up from the bench. A lot of chili peppers were added to the wonton soup, and the chili water flowed into his eyes, making his eyes red and tears flowed.

The crowd gasped again. The sturdy man stood up and stood with Yu Xiaoxiao. The two were very different in height and shape. The burly man was 1.9 meters tall, while Yu Xiaoxiao, ahem, Princess Linglong was less than 1.6 meters tall.

"I don't hit women," the bearded man said to Yu Xiao, "Call your man."

"How desperate is this guy?" Xiao Wei said to Gu Xinglang from behind, "He didn't look for anyone on the street, but he looked for the princess?"

Xiaozhuang did not step forward to help, as he had no doubt about his princess's fighting ability.

Gu Xinglang couldn't tell what he was feeling at the moment. He looked at Yu Xiaoxiao and wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say.

"Who hasn't encountered setbacks from time to time?" Yu Xiaoxiao asked the sturdy man in front of her.

The sturdy man was stunned. He didn't expect that despite his ferocious appearance that even his own mother disliked, Yu Xiaoxiao was not afraid of him and wanted to talk to him instead.

"Seeking death when encountering setbacks, isn't that a lack of guts?" Yu Xiaoxiao grabbed the burly man's collar and said, "I hate gossipy men the most."

The sturdy man looked down at Yu Xiaoxiao holding his hand, which was not even half the size of his fist. "Let go," the sturdy man said, "Is your man dead? Why do you want a little girl like you to make trouble with me?"

Rather than talking, Yu Xiaoxiao was more accustomed to using her hands. She grabbed the burly man and threw him away.

The crowd gathered at the bridge head all looked up and watched the bear-like sturdy man draw a big arc in the air, and then with a loud splash, the sturdy man fell into the river.

There was a moment of silence at both ends of the stone bridge, which had been bustling with people. Most of the people were wondering in their hearts, what had just happened?

Yu Xiaoxiao did not forget the strong man's friends. She raised her hand and threw the three strong men into the river one by one.

There was absolute silence at both ends of the stone bridge.

"Give me another bowl of glutinous rice balls with sesame filling," Yu Xiaoxiao said to Wang Po after throwing the dumplings away.

Wang Po was so dumbfounded that she couldn't even move her eyes when looking at Yu Xiaoxiao.

Yu Xiaoxiao doesn't know how to read people's faces. After ordering the food, she walked quickly towards Gu Xinglang. Today, Yu Xiaoxiao was wearing a pomegranate skirt. A gust of wind happened to blow, and her steps were fast, so the corners of her skirt flew up, just like a blooming pomegranate flower. A touch of tender red filled Gu Xinglang's eyes, and his heart felt like it was burned by something, very hot and a little painful.

Gu Xinglang couldn't help but pull Yu Xiaoxiao's hand and said, "I'll ask Xiao Wei to bring everything. Let's go home and eat."

Yu Xiaoxiao pointed to the night market and said, "There are people performing over there."

Xiaozhuang and Xiaowei both twitched their lips. This guy still had the mind to watch a night show?

Gu Xinglang said: "I'm a little tired, can we come back tomorrow?"

When Gu Xinglang said this, his expression was very serious and his tone was very normal, but Yu Xiaoxiao shuddered. Is this person acting like a spoiled child to her?
