Chapter 24



"By the spring of next year, you will be a dried fish. No, no, you are a fish and you can't live without water. You need water, you must go back to the water..."

꽭, has Old Madam Shen become so confused?

No wonder the princess said taking care of her was tiring.

The princess tried to persuade him patiently, but the old lady was making a fuss like a child.

There were a bunch of people standing next to me, but no one could come up with any ideas.

They could only block the pond to prevent the princess from not holding the old lady back and letting her rush in.

At her age, if she fell into the pond in such weather, she would be doomed.

"Mother." Ruan Xinchen walked forward.

The princess looked tired, but she still smiled at Ruan Xinchen.

"Xinchen, what's the matter?"

"The second prince has returned, but he has drunk a lot of wine and is unconscious. No one is taking care of him. Mother, can you go and see him yourself? I'm worried that something has happened to him."

The princess's tired face showed even more worry.

"Okay, mother knows, you can go back first."

"놆."

After Ruan Xinchen returned, he no longer cared about Chu Xuanling.

Anyway, she has already told the princess, and she has her own ideas on how to take care of her.

But when she came back, she saw Chu Xuanche sitting on the edge of the bed.

"Shi, why did you come back so suddenly?"

"Can't you come back?"

Ruan Xinchen: “…”

How come you smell of alcohol when you have a foul mouth?

"Shi, you drank too?"

"Um."

"Where did you go to drink?"

"Wherever you go to drink, I will naturally go there to drink."

Ruan Xinchen: “…” So he also went to Prince Zhan’s Mansion?

"How come I didn't see you?"

"I didn't see you either."

Well……

It's really tiring to chat with him.

"I see. Maybe it's because we came back early and you left late."

"Um."

"Did you go directly to Prince Zhan's Mansion as soon as you came back?"

Chu Xuanche raised his eyes to look at her, "Are you so curious about your whereabouts?"

Ruan Xinchen: “…” I would be stupid to ask you this.

Whatever you want.

"If you don't want to talk about it, forget it. Go out and take a look."

The trees in Cui Garden are lush and leafy, and there is also a spot of bright sunshine that makes you feel warm on your body.

Caiyu called a few people and each of them came over with a bucket.

Ruan Xinchen looked at it and asked, "What is this?"

Caiyu said: "This world needs water, he wants to bathe."

"Oh, let's go to the bathroom."

"놆."

She turned her head and looked through the window to see Chu Xuanche in the room, changing into a black robe and walking towards the bathroom next door.

His white neck and half of his chest were exposed, making him look cool and elegant.

Perhaps he felt someone was looking at him, so he stopped and looked out the window, just in time to meet Ruan Xinchen's eyes.

Ruan Xinchen quickly retracted his gaze and pretended to look up.

After a while, Caiyu came out and quietly pulled Ruan Xinchen aside.

"Miss, the girl from Zhoujiaxiang is gone. Do we still want her household registration?"

Ruan Xinchen was startled, "Yes, of course I will."

"If you want, we have to pay the money so that her parents can arrange for her to marry far away from Beijing."

Ruan Xinchen went back into the house, took the key from her neck, opened her treasure chest, and took out a banknote. "Take it and buy this household registration."

"What about the pass? If you want to apply for a pass at the same time, you have to go there yourself."

Ruan Xinchen looked at her face. It was already noon, and she was afraid that she might not be able to come.

She thought for a moment and said, "You buy the household registration first, and you can handle the rest tomorrow."

"놆."

Caiyu took the banknote and hurried out.

This matter has been handled by her all along, and she is very familiar with the middleman Liu Si.

He gave the silver to Liu Si and got a separate household registration.

Seeing that she gave a lot of reward money, Liu Si said to her: "Miss Caiyu, you have to tell your master that this matter must be handled as soon as possible. According to the rules of our Great Chu, there is only one possibility for a girl's household registration to be separated from her parents, and that is to marry far away. After the separation, it must be merged into the man's household registration within one year, otherwise it will be invalid."

"No need to worry. Thanks for reminding me."

"Hey, you should go get the pass as soon as possible. Miss Zhou's parents have already taken care of everything. You just need to take these things to the government office to get it."

"Okay, thank you very much."

"You're welcome. I took your money. It's my duty."

They did not ask the Zhou family what they planned to do with Miss Zhou's body. She was dead and her household registration had been sold.

Caiyu handed the household registration to Ruan Xinchen. She held the thing she had been looking forward to for two generations, and her heart was filled with joy.

"That's great. When we leave the capital, I won't miss Ruan Xinchen anymore, but Zhou Qiner."

Caiyu also laughed and said, "Liu Si said we have to do it quickly. As for the pass, we just need to take these things to the government office and we can get it. It's not difficult. As for the household registration, he said we have to return to the man's family within one year, otherwise it will be invalid."

"That's fine. We can go back to the local government office in our wedding dress and tell them that we can't find the family of our childhood marriage. Child marriages arranged more than ten years ago can lead to many unexpected events. You have a household registration and a travel permit. How can they treat you as a refugee?"

"That's right. Let's get the directions later. Then we can go directly to the place you mentioned."

"Well, but..." She looked at the situation and said, "We're afraid we won't be able to leave before the New Year. It's going to snow soon, and it will be dangerous if we get stuck on the road. Let's wait until after the New Year. After the New Year, the snow will melt and it will be warmer and warmer."

"good."

"Okay, I'll listen to you. We'll go wherever you want us to go. We'll leave whenever you say we'll leave."

The two of them were hiding in the corner and plotting secretly. When they turned around, they saw Chu Xuanche standing behind them.

Caiyu came out in shock, then quickly knelt aside.

"I have seen you pass away."

Chu Xuanche looked at Ruan Xinchen and asked in a clear voice, "What are you talking about?"

Ruan Xinchen was frightened by his sudden appearance and her heart started pounding. She took several deep breaths before coming back to her senses.

"I didn't say anything. It's just a little girl's talk. No one would be interested in it. But why are you walking without making any sound? You appear and disappear like a ghost. It's scary."

"How could he appear and disappear like a ghost when he was just walking normally?"

Ruan Xinchen: “…”

"Only people with something to hide would be afraid. You're not... doing something behind my back, are you?"

Huh? Ruan Xinchen was so frightened that he shook his head hurriedly.

Chu Xuanche just gave her a look that he couldn't understand and walked right past her.

Caiyu dared to stand up only after he walked away.

Patting his chest, he said, "Miss, he won't hear us talking, right?"

Ruan Xinchen didn't want to scare Caiyu, so he just said, "Probably not, we were talking so quietly."

Caiyu said, "It's good that you didn't hear it, Miss. We should really leave as soon as possible. In this world... I always feel that he is not a normal person."
