Chapter 421: Hanhan proposed to me, the time to witness a miracle has come
Wan Xin paused when she heard this, then nodded timidly, "I dare."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Jinyu couldn't help but give a thumbs up, "You are really brave. You dare to eat even though you are afraid."
Wan Xin lowered her eyelids and explained quietly, "I have been timid since I was young. After my relatives passed away one by one, I had to become more courageous."
Only then did Xiao Jinyu realize that she was quite pitiful, having lost her relatives at the age of fifteen.
"You have to cheer up in this place where you have no relatives."
Wan Xin bowed and said, "I can do it. Thank you, Prince Yu, for your concern."
"I still have to catch rabbits, so I'll leave first." After saying this, Xiao Jinyu turned around and walked towards the woods not far away.
After resting enough, Concubine Xu and Tao Liangyuan went out to look for Shen Chuwei. They saw Shen Chuwei's figure from a distance and waved and shouted at her excitedly.
"Crown Princess, this way."
Shen Chuwei turned around and saw Xu Cefei and Tao Liangyuan waving at her, so she walked over.
Wanxin stood there, looked at Xiao Jinyu's leaving back, pursed her lips and followed him.
Concubine Xu looked at the woman not far away and asked Shen Chuwei in confusion, "Crown Princess, who is that woman?"
Shen Chuwei said, "It's Wanxin, someone close to the Queen Mother."
Tao Liangyuan asked: "Why is she here?"
"I don't know either." Shen Chuwei's mind was not on this. She chuckled and said, "How about we go roast a rabbit now? It smells delicious."
As early as when Xiao Jinyu mentioned roasted rabbit and roasted wild gourd, she was so craving for it that she had to catch a rabbit to satisfy her craving.
Concubine Xu waved her handkerchief to show her approval, "Yes, yes, I have never eaten wild rabbit before, it must be delicious."
Tao Liangyuan's mouth watered after hearing this, "I haven't eaten it either, but if the Crown Princess says it's delicious, it must be delicious."
"Let's go." Shen Chuwei led them to catch rabbits, but she stopped after a few steps and said, "We have to find Chunxi first."
Concubine Xu and Tao Liangyuan nodded and turned around to look for Chunxi.
After Chunxi finished packing and returned to the tent, she did not see Shen Chuwei. Thinking of how Shen Chuwei had been seriously injured during the autumn hunting the year before last, she was frightened and hurried out to look for him.
"Master, Master, where have you been?"
After running a few steps, he saw Shen Chuwei and Xu Tao walking towards him, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
Chunxi ran over to greet him, "Master, where have you been? You scared me to death."
"It's okay, it's okay. I'm fine, right?" Shen Chu said a few words of comfort and then got down to business. "Chunxi, let's go roast some rabbits."
Chunxi nodded without thinking, "Okay, I'll go get the tools and seasonings."
Shen Chuwei nodded, "Let's go catch rabbits."
After discussion, they acted separately.
Concubine Xu was a little worried: "Crown Princess, the rabbit runs so fast, can we catch it? It's getting dark, and we can't even see the rabbit's fur."
Tao Liangyuan suggested: "You can use a trap."
"Traps are too troublesome." Shen Chuwei said as he walked, "Let's go to the woods first and set a trap."
Concubine Xu and Tao Liangyuan nodded in agreement.
Arriving in the woods, Shen Chuwei looked around and saw the Myrtles, a perennial vine that was perfect for use as ropes.
She pulled off several sections of gambling vines and tied them into knots to form a vine about three meters long.
She tied a slipknot with the vine and placed it on the ground, then hid behind a tree holding the other end of the vine.
Concubine Xu looked at the obvious trap with a worried look in her eyes. She tugged at Shen Chuwei's sleeve and asked in a low voice: "Crown Princess, is this okay?"
Shen Chuwei said confidently: "This is how I used to catch rabbits."
Tao Liangyuan couldn't help but ask, "Did they catch him in the end?"
Shen Chuwei touched his chin and said, "Sometimes I can catch it and sometimes I can't."
Concubine Xu expressed doubt, "...50% probability, then when can we catch the rabbit?"
Shen Chuwei explained: "Sometimes the trap fails to catch the rabbit, that's because it encounters a stupid rabbit that runs too fast and hits a tree and faints."
Concubine Xu couldn't help laughing out loud: "Crown Princess, are you sure it's not the rabbit that falls into the trap that's stupid?"
Shen Chuwei explained: "Falling into a trap means it's an accident, but hitting a tree is a different situation."
Concubine Xu and Tao Liangyuan looked at each other and had nothing to say in response.
Chunxi ran back to the tent and took out a cross-body bag, which contained all the tools and condiments needed for barbecue. She put it on her shoulder and was about to look for Shen Chuwei, but she saw a tall figure in the distance.
Hey, isn’t that Qin Xiao?
Who is that woman opposite?
Chunxi walked over with doubts.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it." Fu Ping hurriedly took out a handkerchief and wiped the water droplets off Qin Xiao's body.
Qin Xiao had just finished his work and was about to return to the tent when a woman suddenly ran out from the tent on the right. He couldn't dodge in time and they bumped into each other. The woman was holding a basin in her hand and the water in the basin splashed all over him.
He looked down at his wet clothes, then saw the woman wiping them for him. He pushed her hand away and said, "No need."
Fu Ping raised her head and looked at Qin Xiao, blushing and apologizing: "I didn't see you coming when I came out just now. How about you change your clothes and I'll wash them for you and bring them over after they're dried."
"No need. Just be more careful next time." Qin Xiao patted the water off his body, turned around and wanted to leave.
Fu Ping grabbed the handkerchief in her hand and saw Qin Xiao was about to leave. She chased after him with a smug look on her face, "I really feel bad for you being like this. Can I help you wash your clothes?"
"No need." Qin Xiao continued walking with a cold face.
"I feel really bad about it." Fu Ping chased after him without giving up, and after catching up with him, he pretended to fall down.
Qin Xiao quickly reached out and grabbed her arm, pulling her up, causing her to fall into his arms.
Chunxi came over and saw this scene. Her eyes widened. "In broad daylight, hugging and hugging each other, what kind of talk is this?"
When Qin Xiao saw Chunxi coming, he quickly pushed the woman in his arms aside.
How strong is Qin Xiao? With just this push, Fu Ping lost his balance and took two steps backwards, bumping into the tree behind him and almost falling to the ground.
Qin Xiao happily took a few steps forward, "Chunxi, what are you doing?"
Chunxi glared at Qin Xiao, "What do I do have to do with you?"
Qin Xiao had never been bullied by Chunxi before. This was the first time he was bullied. He was a little confused for a moment. Did he do something wrong?
Chunxi turned his head to look at Fu Ping, looking weak and unable to take care of himself.
"Didn't you say yesterday that women should love themselves? Why are you diving into a man's arms today? Do you have any shame?"
Fu Ping wiped away her tears and said, feeling extremely wronged, "Sister Chunxi, you misunderstood. He and I were innocent. It was just an accident."
Chunxi retorted, "I am only seventeen this year, and you were nineteen, right? Is it appropriate to call me sister?"
Fu Ping was unhappy because she deliberately mentioned her age in front of Qin Shiwei, but she still appeared to be a weak person on the surface.
"Sister Chunxi, I am short-sighted. Don't be angry. Today is really..."
Chunxi sneered: "You got the wrong person, I don't have a sister."
Fu Ping was embarrassed and at a loss. She looked at Qin Shiwei and said, "Brother Shiwei, I'm sorry. I didn't know Chunxi would misunderstand and be so angry..."
Chunxi got goosebumps when he heard this. "Weren't you quite fierce in the carriage yesterday? How come you are so weak now? It turns out you have two faces? I've really learned something new."
Fu Ping looked at her innocently, "Chun Xi, what did you say? Why don't I understand?"
"You continue acting. I don't have time to act with you. Bye." Chunxi snorted and turned away.
Qin Xiao saw Chunxi leaving and hurriedly chased after him, "Chunxi."
Fu Ping stomped her feet in anger when she saw Qin Xiao leaving. Every man is promiscuous, and she didn't believe Chunxi could keep Qin Xiao.
Qin Xiao quickly caught up with Chunxi and grabbed her wrist, "Why are you ignoring me?"
Chunxi said unhappily, "Why are you following me? Go hug her!"
Qin Xiao explained: "Chunxi, I didn't hug her, I just helped her up when she was about to fall..."
Chunxi suddenly stopped, and Qin Xiao was so scared that he also stopped and looked at Chunxi with a puzzled look.
Chunxi turned around and looked at Qin Xiao and poked his strong chest with her fingers. Qin Xiao subconsciously stepped back.
Chun Xisi said bluntly, "You just helped her into your arms? Why didn't you say that you wanted to hold her in your heart?"
"Chunxi, I don't want to hug her. Besides..." Qin Xiao held the little hand on his chest, lowered his eyes to look at Chunxi, and said very seriously: "The person I want to hug is you."
After knowing each other for so long, Qin Xiao always wanted to hug Chunxi, but he didn't dare.
Chunxi blushed and tried to pull her hand back, but Qin Xiao was too strong and she couldn't.
She blushed even more in anger, "You are so shameless. There are differences between men and women. How can you just say such things to me casually?"
Qin Xiao held it in for a long time before yelling, "Because I want to marry you."
He had been holding this sentence in for a year and had never had the chance to say it, but this time he finally said it.
After saying this, he stared at Chunxi with some anticipation, yet also very nervous.
Chunxi was frightened by Qin Xiao's yell, and then her face turned red after she heard what he said.
She stammered, "You, what do you mean by saying this? I am at least the head maid of the Crown Princess. You can marry me just like that maid?"
Chunxi pulled her hand back forcefully and ran away with a red face.
I thought to myself, you are already so old, don't you know that you need a matchmaker to propose marriage? How can you propose marriage yourself?
Qin Xiao stood there in a daze, staring blankly at Chunxi's departing back, feeling somewhat annoyed: "As expected, impulse is the devil. I shouldn't have said it so directly. I scared people away."
He scratched his head irritably, thought about it and followed.
In the woods, you can always hear the chirping of insects and birds.
Shen Chuwei stared at the trap calmly, waiting for the rabbit to come.
Just when Xu Cefei thought she couldn't catch the rabbit, a rabbit suddenly ran out from the bushes. The rabbit was very alert and might have discovered someone behind the tree, so it turned around and ran away.
When Concubine Xu saw the rabbit running away, she said with some disappointment, "Crown Princess, the rabbit ran away."
