Chapter 191 Visiting Card
"Luo Yi!" Zhao Yuhan's face instantly turned red: "Don't make fun of me."
"I'm not making fun of you." Meng Luoyi laughed, "I really wish you could be my sister-in-law!"
"Really?" Zhao Yuhan asked with wide eyes.
"Of course!" Meng Luoyi pursed her lips and smiled: "However, what my big brother really thinks in his heart is not something I, as his younger sister, can influence. You still have to work hard on your own!"
"Yes, I understand!" Zhao Yuhan nodded quickly. After thinking for a moment, she asked, "Luo Yi, you're not really attracted to Prince Xuan, are you?"
"What?" Meng Luoyi pouted and said, "Could it be that you think I'm not worthy of Prince Xuan?"
"That's not the case!" Zhao Yuhan said hurriedly, "It's just that I think Prince Xuan looks cold and doesn't seem easy to get along with. Haven't you noticed? He never smiles. Everyone calls him Ice Cube in private!"
"So what?" Meng Luoyi smiled and said, "If Prince Xuan was like Ji Huaixuan, I wouldn't like him. Ji Huaixuan is obviously a playboy. Prince Xuan is better. It would be wonderful if I could marry him."
Meng Luoyi had always had a secret crush on Xuan Shaoqing, but she had never told anyone about it and had concealed it very well.
She is already fifteen years old this year. She originally thought that her father was the prime minister of the dynasty, and her status would be more than enough for her to be a match for Xuan Shaoqing. She just thought that if her parents were looking for a husband for her, they would ask her opinion first. At that time, she would reveal her thoughts to her parents and let her father talk to Prince Su about it!
Relying on his background, Prince Su should not refuse. After all, Prince Xuan is now twenty-one years old, but he has never been engaged, and Prince Su's palace has not been seen to propose to any family. I think Prince Su must be anxious about Prince Xuan's marriage.
However, a few days ago, Chen Yao revealed that Liu Xueqing was interested in Prince Xuan, and the reason why Liu Xueqing targeted Yuan Ziyu was precisely because Prince Xuan had blocked the knife for Yuan Ziyu and was in the same Fatan Temple with Yuan Ziyu. The implication of her words was that Prince Xuan and Yuan Ziyu had a close past!
How can this be tolerated?
She knew Xuan Shaoqing had been injured during the Lantern Festival, but she didn't realize it was to protect Yuan Ziyou from being attacked. Coupled with Chen Yao and Liu Xueqing's words, Meng Luoyi's nerves immediately tensed up. She felt she couldn't just wait around like that. Even if Yuan Ziyou was engaged, she couldn't rest assured.
Besides, even if Yuan Ziyu was not there, who knows how many noble ladies in the capital city admired Prince Xuan?
Zhao Yuhan looked at Meng Luoyi's slightly red face and couldn't help but smile: "Then you have to work harder and let Prince Xuan see more of your good side."
"Of course!" Meng Luoyi looked determined to win.
Yuan Ziyu took Qingying and Qingzhi and wandered around Yuetan Mountain for a day, and finally found the place where the Duanxueliu grew.
"Second Miss, such an ordinary weed can actually stop bleeding. This is too magical!" Qingzhi grabbed a piece of weed that had broken blood, looked at it carefully, his face full of disbelief.
"This is the magic of herbs!" Yuan Ziyu smiled and dug up another blood-curdling herb and put it in the bamboo basket.
This time when he went into the mountains, Yuan Ziyu dug up the herbs with their roots, which made it much easier to put the herbs in the Qiongjiang Pavilion, so he naturally would not avoid Qingying and Qingzhi.
After a busy day in the mountains, Yuan Ziyu not only collected a lot of medicinal herbs, but also hunted a few rabbits, pheasants and a deer. He then returned to the farm with Qingying, Qingzhi and the servants.
"Second Miss, you have dug so many medicinal herbs and hunted so many prey today. Second Miss is really amazing!" Upon learning that Yuan Ziyu had returned, Biling hurried out to greet her. Looking at the two large baskets full of medicinal herbs, she couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise.
"I can't dig up so many medicinal herbs by myself!" Yuan Ziyou said with a smile, "I only got these with their help."
As he said this, he pointed at Qingying and the others.
"Isn't that their job?" Biling said with a smile, "Second Miss, you must be tired. Are you hungry? Go back to the yard and rest. I'll have someone get you some food!"
"Alright!"
"Hey!" Biling hurriedly asked the servant to move the prey to the kitchen, and instructed the maid to get some of Yuan Ziyu's favorite food, and then led Yuan Ziyu back to the yard.
As soon as he returned to the courtyard, Yuan Ziyu ordered Qingying, "Take two servants and take these two baskets of herbs to the farm next to Qingliu Village. Have someone plant them immediately. I'll take care of the rest when I get there."
"Yes!" Qingying understood that this matter was urgent, so she quickly agreed and went out.
"Oh, Second Miss!" Biling said, "Someone from the Meng family's farm sent an invitation today, saying they will visit the farm tomorrow."
As he said that, he hurriedly handed a note to Yuan Ziyu.
Yuan Ziyu took it and looked at it. Seeing that the signature was Meng Weiqing, he knew that it must be Ji Huaixuan and the others who came.
"Yes!" Yuan Ziyou nodded and instructed Biling, "These are all distinguished guests. You will personally take charge of the kitchen tomorrow and prepare a feast. Use all the prey you brought back today!"
"Hey, Second Miss, don't worry!" Hearing Yuan Ziyu's words, Biling knew that tomorrow's visitor must be of high status, so she quickly agreed and said, "In addition to the prey that Second Miss brought back today, we also have chickens, ducks, and cured wild boar meat in the manor. I promise to prepare a decent feast."
"In that case, thank you for your hard work, Nanny Biling!" Yuan Ziyu said with a smile.
"Second Miss, what are you talking about? This is what an old servant should do!" Biling said with a smile.
Soon, the maid brought in some snacks. Biling and Qingzhi hurriedly helped Yuan Ziyu finish his meal, and then helped him lie down to rest.
The next day was another sunny day. After breakfast, the people from the Meng family's farm came to the Liu family's farm in a carriage.
Sitting in the carriage, Meng Luoyi's face looked so gloomy that it seemed like water was about to drip out.
This morning, she learned that Xuan Shaoqing and his companions were going to visit the manor next door, and that manor actually belonged to the Yuan family!
The person they were going to visit was Yuan Ziyu.
Yuan Ziyou! Yuan Ziyou!
Why does it always appear around Xuan Shaoqing like a ghost?
Although she didn't want to see Yuan Ziyu, Meng Luoyi still pestered Meng Weiqing and the others to come to the manor as guests. No matter what, she had to protect her Prince Xuan!
Zhao Yuhan sat aside, looking at Meng Luoyi's expression, and knew what she was thinking. She hurriedly whispered to Meng Luoyi, "Luoyi, you can't do this. If Prince Xuan sees this, won't it affect his impression of you?"
Hearing this, Meng Luoyi shuddered, quickly adjusted his expression, held Zhao Yuhan's hand, and said softly: "Thank you, Yuhan, I was so angry that I almost made a mistake!"
"Even if I don't tell you, you can figure it out yourself!" Zhao Yuhan chuckled and said, "I'm just giving you some advice. You will definitely be able to fulfill your wish."
Hearing this, Meng Luoyi's expression became better.
