239. Chapter 239 I can’t afford it!



Hearing this, Zhao Jingqi was stunned at first, then blinked, covered her mouth and burst into laughter.

This idiot!

Seeing her reaction, the prince felt his face instantly getting hot, and even his earlobes turned red as if blood was dripping from them.

Seeing him like this, Zhao Jingqi, who had never been very angry in the first place, now had no temper at all.

She walked forward and shook the wooden box in front of the prince.

"Is this for me?"

The prince looked at her expectantly and nervously, "That's right."

Miss Zhao, you should like it, right?

Zhao Jingqi didn't rush to open it, but went to a secluded pavilion with the prince.

The prince's blushing and shy look can only be seen by her, not by others!

On the other side, on the way to the bridal chamber, Chu Yaoyao saw this scene from the live broadcast and nodded with satisfaction.

[Fortunately, despite some minor incidents, the general direction is still in accordance with the original plan. ]

【Come on, my brother! 】

In the new house.

Shangguan Mingyue sat on the bed, holding her stomach and feeling very hungry.

She had been making trouble since the fourth watch, and up till now, she had only drunk a bowl of porridge.

The custom in Daqi is that from the moment a woman gets into the bridal sedan until her husband lifts the veil, she cannot eat. Even if she drinks water, she can only take small sips at a time.

I’m afraid the bride will want to go to the toilet during the wedding.

If I had known this earlier, I should have eaten more.

As she thought this, her eyes fell on the red dates and longans on the bed.

There are so many, and it shouldn't be obvious if I eat a few, right? She was about to reach out when the door creaked open. Hearing the noise, she quickly sat up straight.

If those maids saw her moving around, they would probably start lecturing her again.

"Second aunt?"

Shangguan Mingyue breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the childish voice.

I hope it’s not a nanny.

"Yaoyao? Why are you here?"

Shangguan Mingyue lifted the red veil a little and looked at the little guy at the door with confusion.

Chu Yaoyao grinned, chuckled, ran to her and handed her the still warm oil paper bag.

"My second uncle asked me to come and bring some snacks."

Looking at the cloud cake in front of her, Shangguan Mingyue almost burst into tears as she smelled the familiar sweet fragrance.

"Thank you, Yaoyao."

Seeing that she was eating so happily, Chu Yaoyao touched her belly, she was hungry too.

Noticing her little action, Shangguan Mingyue handed her the paper bag and said with a smile, "It's boring to eat alone, how about Yaoyao eat something with your second aunt?"

Chu Yaoyao stretched out her little hand and pushed it, shaking her head.

"No, I brought snacks!"

After saying that, she started taking food out of her bag.

Dried meat, preserved fruits, sugar-roasted chestnuts, spiced peanuts, and most amazingly, there were two fried chicken legs! Shangguan Mingyue stared at the food on the bed in amazement.

"Second aunt, we'll each have one."

As she spoke, she wiped her hands with a wet tissue and stuffed one of the fried chicken legs into Shangguan Mingyue's hand.

Holding the golden and crispy fried chicken leg in his hand, Shangguan Mingyue decisively threw the oil paper bag containing the snack aside.

The more you eat sweets, the hungrier you get! How can it be as satisfying as eating real meat?!

After the two men finished the chicken legs and dried meat, Chu Yaoyao took out a deck of playing cards.

[It's still a while before dark. It's so boring to just wait. ]

In this way, Shangguan Mingyue opened the door to a new world again.

The maids and nannies guarding outside could vaguely hear wailing and excited shouts coming from inside from time to time.

"Two for two!"

"bomb!"

Hearing the noise inside, the nanny wanted to go in and take a look, but was stopped by the maid beside her.

"Madame Ning, the two princesses didn't do anything against the rules. Princess Mingyue has been making trouble since the fifth watch, which is not easy."

Nanny Ning grumbled in dissatisfaction.

"Since you are here for marriage, you must abide by the rules of our Daqi."

The maid advised again: "Besides, there is a Princess Qiyuan inside."

After hearing what she said, Nanny Ning had no choice but to give up.

Yes, she didn't dare to offend Princess Qiyuan.

"Your Majesty!"

Then, she put the remaining five cards in her hand together and waited happily.

Shangguan Mingyue gave a meaningful smile and then drew out four cards.

"bomb!"

Chu Yaoyao’s smile froze at the corners of her mouth.

Looking at the four fives on the king's head, she felt heartbroken.

"I can't bear it."

Shangguan Mingyue slowly threw down two cards.

"Three for three!"

Chu Yaoyao held Shunzi in her arms, wanting to cry but unable to, and let out a heart-wrenching scream.

"I can't bear it!"

Shangguan Mingyue threw down the remaining two cards.

"Haha, I win!"

System: Host, you lose.

[Shut up, I'm not blind! ]

System: I’ve said it before, as long as you give me one point, I can help you see Shangguan Mingyue’s cards.

Chu Yaoyao hummed and watched Shangguan Mingyue shuffle the cards.

[What do you know? What's so fun about playing with open cards? The whole point is excitement! ]

She rubbed her hands together, looking at the other half of the cards with a fierce look on her face.

“Come again!”

A big and a small man were fighting fiercely at the card table.

It was getting dark, and the guests at the banquet gradually dispersed. Zhao Jingqi held the wooden box, waved goodbye to the prince with a smile, and then got on her own carriage.

After watching his sweetheart leave, the prince prepared to return to the palace.

"What did you say? The little princess never came out?"

Ah Shi looked towards the gate anxiously.

"I have been guarding here, but I have not seen the princess. So, the little princess is not with you either?"

The prince suddenly remembered that Li Wanfeng asked Yaoyao to deliver snacks.

It can’t be…

Thinking of this, he hurried towards the new house.

On the other side, Li Wanfeng came back from the wine table and pushed open the door. Hearing the noise, Shangguan Mingyue, who was sleeping lightly against the head of the bed, quickly sat up and covered her head with the red veil again.

But I still feel a little uneasy.

As if he had forgotten something? As soon as they saw the groom, the maids and servants who were guarding outside withdrew, and Li Wanfeng came in and closed the door.

The moment he turned around, his nose twitched slightly as he looked around the room.

Why does it smell like spiced jerky?

But the next moment he was no longer worried. It must be the little guy Yaoyao who was eating snacks in the room.

Looking at the person sitting on the bed, Li Wanfeng's face was tanned and yellowed due to years of fighting. Although there was no visible change in color, his neck and earlobes did turn red.

He picked up the wedding scale and lifted up the red veil, looking at the picturesque eyebrows and eyes, and was lost in thought for a moment.

"My wife..."

Shangguan Mingyue lowered her head and smiled shyly.

"Husband, we haven't drunk the wedding wine yet."

"Oh, yes!"

Li Wanfeng turned around and strode to the table, bringing over two glasses of wine.

The two looked at each other lovingly and drank the wedding wine.

Suddenly, Li Wanfeng looked at the piece of paper with strange patterns on it on the bed and asked.

"This is?"

Shangguan Mingyue grabbed her sleeves tightly.

Oh no, she fell asleep while playing. Did Princess Qiyuan leave? She looked around inconspicuously, but didn't see the little figure.

"This was taken out by Yaoyao, right?"

Li Wanfeng put away the playing cards and placed them on the table.

Then, he turned around and looked at Shangguan Mingyue's silly smile.

"Madam, we..."

[Ahhh, how can I watch such an exciting scene?! ]
