Chapter 693 How can you be so ruthless?
Fu Zhaoning's eyes lit up when he saw Chen Haozhu.
She even looked at Xiao Lanyuan with some joy.
She originally wanted to agree, but when she saw Chen Haozhu's joyful and expectant eyes, Fu Zhaoning felt that -
She must have some serious illness to cause her such trouble, giving her the opportunity to show off in front of Xiao Lanyuan.
Just as he was about to speak, he heard Xiao Lanyuan's cold voice.
"It's inconvenient and inappropriate. I don't like people hanging around in front of me. It's an eyesore."
puff.
Fu Zhaoning couldn't help but look at him.
He had clearly agreed to take them mother and daughter with him just now. Why did he change his mind in the blink of an eye?
It really resembles her, and she likes it.
Fu Zhaoning couldn't help but smile, and the look in her eyes was a little tearful as she looked at him.
Xiao Lanyuan felt very unhappy when he caught Chen Haozhu's eye just now. When he thought about how many such looks he would have to "enjoy" along the way if he took them with him, he suddenly felt uncomfortable.
Let’s talk about Dong Qing’s embroidery skills later.
It is not necessary to bring someone with you.
Chen Haozhu was about to cry.
How could Prince Jun be so cold-blooded and heartless?
As handsome as his face is, his words are as cruel as his words are.
Mrs. Chen also felt her face burning and could hardly sit still.
Mr. Ji looked at this and that, and his eyes fell on the peony skirt again.
Xiao Lanyuan saw it, and his eyes also swept over the peony skirt.
Although he didn't like the person, he had to say that he felt that this peony skirt was very suitable for Fu Zhaoning. If she wore it, she would look so beautiful.
"Mr. Ji, you are going to Zhaoguo too, right?" he asked.
Mr. Ji immediately understood what he was thinking and nodded, "Yes, yes, yes."
"Then you take them with you." Xiao Lanyuan said this lightly, and then looked at Madam Chen, "This skirt can be regarded as travel expenses."
After saying that, he waved his hand lightly, and Qing Yi, who was standing behind him, walked over quickly and took the box containing the Peony Skirt.
If they were gifts, it would seem as if Fu Zhaoning accepted their gifts as love gifts and would owe them a favor in the future.
Now they are saying that it is paying for the travel expenses, that is, a transaction. After bringing them to the capital of Zhaoguo, they owe nothing to each other.
Mrs. Chen did not expect that Prince Jun would do such a thing.
Before she could react, Qing Yi had already retreated with the box in his arms.
Mrs. Chen felt a little disappointed.
"Okay, okay, then it's settled. We'll leave in a few days, and you guys go back and prepare to pack." Old Ji laughed, and his attitude was quite good. "Don't worry, we'll cover your food, accommodation and transportation along the way, you two just need to follow."
This is more like a transaction.
What's more, why don't they let the mother and daughter stay to have dinner together?
"Thank you, Mr. Ji. We'll go back first." Mrs. Chen took Chen Haozhu out.
After returning to their house next door, as soon as the door was closed, Chen Haozhu burst into tears.
"Bullying, they are so bullying!"
For a moment, Chen Haozhu wanted to give up on Xiao Lanyuan. He was extremely handsome, and her heart really beat fast when she saw him, but he was really ruthless!
Mrs. Chen didn't know what to say, she was having a heart attack at the moment.
The peony skirt was given away.
No, it was not given away, it was a trade. It was Master Ji who took the two of them to the capital of Zhao State.
But she originally wanted to follow Prince Jun and Fu Zhaoning.
Fu Zhaoning is a miracle doctor. If anyone feels unwell along the way, Fu Zhaoning would not just stand by and watch them die. Both mother and daughter are in poor health, and it is almost winter now. They may catch a cold at any time on the road.
Secondly, Fu Zhaoning is a woman, so she might be more careful when traveling, and her accommodation and food would be more exquisite, so they could take advantage of her by following her.
Thirdly, such a long distance would at least allow them to develop a good relationship.
Since Haozhu likes Prince Jun so much, if it is really possible, there may be a chance on the way.
Otherwise, she could ask Prince Jun to help them settle down in the capital. When they arrive in the capital, as long as they make some arrangements and show their faces, the people in the capital will know that they are with Prince Jun and Princess Jun, and they are acquaintances, which will also make it easier for them to enter the circle of dignitaries in the capital.
There are more choices for Haozhu to find a husband in that circle.
Another thing is that if she gets closer to Fu Zhaoning along the way, her embroidery will have better prospects.
Their expenses will definitely increase when they arrive in the capital. Now in Jicheng, Dong Huanzhi is mostly paying for them, but they will have to rely on themselves after leaving Jicheng.
Each piece of her embroidery is extremely expensive and ordinary people certainly cannot afford it. Only the powerful and wealthy can buy it.
Therefore, with the support of Prince Jun and Princess Jun, her embroidery was easy to sell.
It was precisely because there were so many benefits to following Prince Jun and his men back to the capital that she was willing to give away the peony skirt.
But who knows——
Mrs. Chen also felt some resentment in her heart.
Chen Haozhu was still crying, "Mother, it must be Fu Zhaoning. She must be too jealous. She refused to let us follow, fearing that I would attract Prince Jun's attention. But she was greedy for the peony skirt that mother embroidered! How could this person be so bad!"
"Mom, what should we do now? Do we really have to go with Mr. Ji? Mr. Ji is old, how can he take care of us? If something happens on the road, he can't protect us, and maybe we will have to take care of him instead!"
Chen Haozhu really didn’t think that Mr. Ji was anything special, he was just an old man!
The journey to Zhaoguo is so long, and she would be fed up with facing Mr. Ji every day.
"It's come to this, there's no point in saying more."
Mrs. Chen let out a long sigh and her eyes became determined.
"Zhu'er, we should start packing our things tomorrow. We still have to go to the capital of Zhaoguo."
In the dining room over there, everyone quickly forgot about the matter of Mrs. Chen and her daughter and ate their meal to their heart's content.
Fu Zhaoning also drank two glasses of wine.
When the banquet was over, her cheeks were tinged with a light blush, making her look as delicate and charming as a peach blossom.
It's windy outside.
"Shall I carry you back?"
"Do you think I'm drunk?" Fu Zhaoning glared at him.
"The wine tonight is quite strong." Xiao Lanyuan felt his heart burning as he looked at her like this, and couldn't help but reach out and gently stroke her lips.
I originally thought that she would not drink such strong liquor, but who would have thought that she followed Mr. Ji and Dong Huanzhi and each drank a glass, and the action of drinking it all in one gulp was so cool.
"It tastes very good." said Fu Zhaoning.
Xiao Lanyuan chuckled, "Are you still a drunkard?"
He also drank a few glasses tonight. After all, it was a rare opportunity for Fu Zhaoning to allow him to relax after detoxifying.
"A little drink will soothe your mood." Fu Zhaoning turned behind him, hugged his neck and lay on his back, "Aren't you going to carry me on your back?"
