Chapter 214: Cruise on the Lake (2)
Mu Yunting didn't want to go to the Lantern Festival with Leng Yue, but when he heard Su Nuan say that she wanted a lantern, he didn't say no.
He asked Falcon to stop the carriage on the side of the street and got off first.
He then told Falcon to keep an eye on the people in the car, and then walked towards the bustling crowd.
"Falcon, can you help me buy a lantern?"
Su Nuan lifted the car curtain and faced the Falcon.
"Madam, there are so many people coming and going on this street. I dare not leave you alone in the carriage."
"Don't come on, I know there are several people following us, you can ask them to come closer."
"Didn't Madam ask Miss Leng to buy the lanterns? Why did you ask your subordinates to buy them?"
"Nonsense, can she really help me pick out something nice? Yesterday I bought her a candied fox, and today she will definitely pick out a fox lantern for me. I don't like it. I like the rabbit lantern on the corner. How about you run an errand for me, and I'll get you a pot of flower wine when we get on the flower boat?"
Falcon shuddered in his heart. What was this Concubine Xia thinking about? How could His Royal Highness the Crown Prince bring his concubine on the flower boat? If that got out, everyone would be laughed at.
Seeing that the falcon did not move, Su Nuan gritted her teeth and continued to increase the stakes: "Plus a singing girl."
Boom! Falcon's face turned red to his neck. The scene of Concubine Xia looking for someone to learn skills was vivid in his mind.
But I can't let her continue talking, otherwise I might end up selling out my innocence.
"Then I will go and come back soon. Madam, don't go anywhere in the carriage."
"it is good."
After getting the assurance, Falcon gestured towards the darkness and walked quickly towards the street corner.
In a dark alley not far away, someone was hesitating whether to attack the people in the carriage.
"Go ahead, this is a rare opportunity."
"No, there is more business."
"The master hates this Concubine Xia the most. If he can kill her, the master will be very happy. He may even get a reward."
"Well, since you have delayed the master's business, I will leave you with an intact body as a reward."
"Don't try to scare me with that. This woman is lucky today. Let's go."
The two men in black moved and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Su Nuan, who was sitting in the carriage, had no idea that she had been to the gates of hell. She was now thinking about what song she would listen to when she got on the flower boat.
Leng Yue should be allowed to show off her talent so that she can play the jade hook harp later. By then, not only Xun the fox, but also Lou Guang, the male fox, will be furious.
Just thinking about it will relieve your anger!
Su Nuan thought the lantern festival would take a long time, so she leaned over, half lying in the carriage, doing whatever was comfortable for her.
A thread sticking out of the cushion tickled her foot, so she lifted her foot to scratch it.
Suddenly, the scene in front of me lit up, the curtain of the car was lifted, and Mu Yunting stepped in holding a lantern.
The woman doesn't look like a lady at all. She is holding her foot with one hand. How can she look like a lady from a noble family?
"General Xia really taught you well!"
Su Nuan seemed not to be able to hear his sarcasm and chuckled, "Of course, my father taught me very well!"
"The lantern you asked for."
Mu Yunting stretched out his hand and handed over the lantern, which turned out to be one with a rabbit pattern painted on it.
"How do you know I like rabbits?"
"You held the candy rabbit figure for the longest time yesterday, and you felt a little reluctant to give it to Liefeng."
Although her thoughts were seen through, Su Nuan didn't think much about it and just smiled again. Her mind was on the lanterns at the moment.
This lantern is cleverly made, with two layers, the inner core is painted and the outer cover reflects the shadow. The wick can rotate, and when it rotates, the rabbit looks like it is running on the lampshade, which is very beautiful.
Leng Yue got on the carriage behind Mu Yunting, she also held a lantern in her hand.
Su Nuan glanced at the lantern and was about to speak when the curtain was lifted again. It was the falcon.
Falcon handed in a lantern in the shape of a rabbit. It was small but extremely exquisite.
"Ma'am, the lantern you requested."
Su Nuan happily took it in her hand and signaled Falcon to look at the lantern in Leng Yue's hand.
Falcon took a quick glance out of the corner of his eye and immediately showed admiration for Su Nuan.
Concubine Xia guessed correctly. Miss Lengyue really bought her a fox-shaped lantern, and it was a crudely made, sloppy-looking little fox.
Only women can understand this woman's thoughts!
Falcon, unable to guess the woman's thoughts, sat back on the shaft of the carriage obediently and drove the carriage forward.
In the carriage, Su Nuan was filled with exclamations of admiration for the lanterns.
"I saw Madam fighting with Master for a candy man yesterday, and I thought that the ones Madam gave to the guards were the ones she didn't like. If I had known that Madam liked the rabbit lantern, I would have bought one for you."
There was nothing wrong with what he said, but it didn't make sense to Su Nuan, especially when Mu Yunting's face changed.
Most likely, I was cheated by this white lotus, but I haven't figured out where I was cheated.
If Su Nuan could assume that Mu Yunting liked her, she would understand that Leng Yue was trying to instigate her.
However, even though she didn't see clearly where the pit was, it didn't prevent her from jumping over it.
"It's true that I like rabbits, but he can't finish such a big candy figure by himself. It's enough for me to fight with him for it. The remaining candy figures must be shared with everyone. Otherwise, it will turn into a pool of sugar and waste the boss's craftsmanship."
"That's what the lady said."
Leng Yue didn't say anything more, she just wanted to be the brick that led to the jade.
As she wished, Yu was really lured out.
"Why did you give that candy rabbit to Liefeng?"
Mu Yunting's eyes were dark, and he didn't look jealous at all on the surface, but he was already jealous inside. At this moment, what he was thinking about was the scene of Xia Qingyan feeding Liefeng porridge.
She hasn't even fed herself yet!
Even if Su Nuan was slow-witted, she knew at this moment that Mu Yunting was jealous.
But why Liefeng? Just because I gave him a rabbit-shaped candy man?
Why did she give the rabbit candy man to Liefeng?
forget!
"I said I forgot, do you believe me?"
Su Nuan said to Mu Yunting earnestly and sincerely, "There were so many people, and I saw everyone getting a candy figure. How could I remember who got what shape? Because I liked the rabbit shape, I kept it for last. Who would have thought that the last person to get a candy figure was Liefeng!"
Mu Yunting thought about it and realized that this was indeed what happened yesterday, so his jealousy dissipated a little.
"So among yesterday's candy figures, only my one was specially chosen?"
"Yes, the one I bought for you was specially bought, and the others are just extras."
Mu Yunting was satisfied after hearing this and took out a bag of candy and handed it to Su Nuan.
Su Nuan took the candy with a smile on her face and thought to herself that although this man was a little narrow-minded, he was a good person and even knew to buy candy for her.
Leng Yue grabbed her Fox Lantern's ears and looked between the two of them. She didn't expect that the Crown Prince had fallen in love with this woman. It seemed that even if the master didn't arrange her to be with the Crown Prince, it would be difficult for Xun Zheng to return to the Crown Prince.
This Xia Qingyan can be put to good use.
Falcon could hear the conversation between the people in the carriage clearly, and thought to himself that he must not let His Highness know that he had stolen half of Liefeng's rabbit candy yesterday.
When I go back and see Liefeng, I have to remind him that he should not get close to Concubine Xia unless necessary. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is narrow-minded!
