Getting Rich from Legend of Zhen Huan

Chapter 311: Before the Bed and Greetings

The Fourth Prince arrived as promised, and Cao Qinmo stood at the gate to greet him. The Fourth Prince looked at Cao Qinmo, who was quietly blooming like a jasmine flower, and he started to think about love again, "The last time I saw you, Mo'er, you were having a lot of fun with Miaohan."

Cao Qinmo had simulated the scene of her conversation with the Fourth Prince countless times, so the Fourth Prince's question was naturally not difficult for her. She lowered her head slightly and said shyly, "I have no other strengths, but I am good at making beads. The Second Princess was interested in my craft, so I took the Second Princess to play for a while, which made the prince laugh."

The Fourth Prince was in high spirits. He pulled Cao Qinmo's hand and walked inside, saying in a reproachful tone, "Mo'er has such a good skill, why don't you think about me?"

Cao Qinmo saw that the Fourth Prince had no intention of blaming her, and said with a hint of pouting, "Mo'er has never met the prince, so how could she have the opportunity to present the pearl necklace? Moreover, the pearl necklace is not a rare thing, and every sister in the backyard can make it. I'm afraid that my pearl necklace will not be pleasing to the prince."

Hearing the jealousy in Cao Qin's silent words, the Fourth Prince said helplessly, "Mo'er, are you blaming the prince?"

Cao Qinmo couldn't help crying, "How dare I blame the prince? It's just that the sisters in the backyard are better than me. I really thought I would never see the prince again!"

The Fourth Prince embraced Cao Qinmo lovingly and wiped her tears. "I was just joking, why did you take it so seriously?"

Cao Qinmo leaned against the Fourth Prince and explained shyly, "I didn't take it seriously. It's just that the prince appeared too suddenly and beautifully, like a beam of light illuminating me. I was really scared."

The Fourth Prince's heart softened when he heard this. He asked softly, "What are you afraid of?"

Cao Qinmo's voice was barely audible, "I'm afraid that the prince will suddenly appear and then suddenly disappear."

The Fourth Prince tightened his arms, giving Cao Qinmo a sense of security, and promised, "I won't do that."

On the second day, the Fourth Prince felt sorry for Cao Qinmo's first time being favored, and wanted to quietly get up, but he didn't expect that Cao Qinmo would wake up as soon as he moved, "Where are you going, Your Majesty?"

The Fourth Prince patted Cao Qinmo's back and said, "It's time for me to go to court. It's still early. Mo'er, why don't you rest for a while."

Cao Qinmo shook her head and stood up to help the Fourth Prince dress in court clothes instead of Su Peisheng. When the Fourth Prince was dressed and ready to go out, Cao Qinmo couldn't help but hug him and said, "Your Highness, don't forget that Mo'er's pearl necklace is not yet ready."

The Fourth Prince understood what Cao Qinmo meant and kissed the top of her head, "I won't forget it."

Cao Qinmo watched the Fourth Prince walk away before she breathed a sigh of relief. It was not easy to be favored by the emperor yesterday, and she had to get up early to serve the Fourth Prince, which was really hard work.

Yinxiu stepped forward to support Cao Qinmo and advised, "Master, can you go back to bed for a while?"

Cao Qinmo shook her head. "Today I still have to go to Xiliyuan to offer tea. In order to prevent any trouble, it is better to prepare early."

Yinxiu felt that what Cao Qinmo said made sense, so she stopped trying to persuade him, "Then I'll go to the kitchen and see what breakfast is available."

Cao Qinmo had dinner early yesterday and had been exercising all night, so he was already starving. He was afraid that he would have to fight a fierce battle later, so he told Yinxiu, "Go get something to fill your stomach. I'm starving!"

When Yinxiu heard this, she trotted to the kitchen. Huang Guiquan saw her at a glance and also trotted to greet her, "Miss Yinxiu is here? Are you here to ask for Cao Gege's breakfast?"

Yinxiu felt relieved when she saw Huang Guiquan fawning on her like this, but she remained calm as usual and said cordially, "The prince has gone to court, and my princess can't sleep, so she sent me to the kitchen to see if there is anything ready to eat."

Huang Guiquan had already prepared everything. He flattered her, "Miss Yinxiu's arrival is such a coincidence. The first batch of steamed cakes just came out of the pot this morning. I guarantee that Cao Gege will be satisfied with them!"

Yinxiu was not arrogant and praised Huang Guiquan, "Eunuch Huang is in charge of the kitchen, how can I not be at ease? Even if it's not the first batch, it must be delicious!"

Huang Guiquan narrowed his eyes in a smile, and was very careful when packing the food box. If it weren't for the eunuch's help, Yinxiu would have almost been unable to carry it back.

Cao Qinmo looked at the dazzling array of breakfast on the table and said with emotion, "Everyone in this mansion is really a snob."

Yinxiu picked up some food for her and agreed, "Isn't it? I haven't given away the purses I prepared today. Huang Guiquan said he doesn't want any. This is his first time in the mansion!"

Cao Qinmo tasted every dish on the table and was full. He waved his hand and asked Yinxiu to share the rest. He said with some worry, "It is said that it is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality. I pride myself on my patience, but after experiencing the taste of being sought after by everyone, I can't help but feel scared before I can go back to the old days."

Yinxiu said hurriedly, "Pooh, pooh, pooh, my master has the favor of the prince and the support of the concubine, the good days are still ahead! It will never go back to the past!"

Cao Qinmo looked at Yinxiu's eyes full of hope and became more confident. "You're right. Things will get better and better." She would never go back to the past.

Cao Qinmo had her calculations made. She arrived at Xiliyuan neither too early nor too late, at least much earlier than Nian Shilan. Although everyone who was supposed to be seated had already arrived, she glanced around and was a little surprised. She didn't expect that Lin Zhuoyin, who had been claiming to be ill for a long time, had come.

Lu Yingfeng was not stingy with his kindness and asked Cao Qinmo to sit down. "Sister, your misfortune has finally turned around."

Cao Qinmo smiled at Lu Yingfeng and said, "I wish you good luck, Sister Lu."

Fei Yunyan interrupted in disapproval, "Sister Lu is really bold. She dares to approach such a slave."

Lu Yingfeng frowned, "If Sister Fei can't speak, then she can just keep silent and be mute."

Fei Yunyan glanced at Cao Qinmo and snorted, "Could it be that my sister is wrong? Cao Gege was courteous to Concubine Nian at first, and now she is running to Sister Lu to apologize. If she is not a slave of three surnames, what is she?"

Cao Qinmo knew that she must not let this curse be pinned on herself. "Sister Fei really misunderstood me. I did visit Concubine Nian, but Concubine Nian was probably tired of my frequent visits and no longer received me. I couldn't have the audacity to visit her!" Having said this, Cao Qinmo lowered her head in grievance.

Lu Yingfeng nodded, "The cause and effect are clear, Sister Fei, don't say anything unpleasant in the future."

Fei Yunyan was choked by Cao Qinmo's words. She knew she was being rude and stopped talking.

Nian Shilan used Cao Qinmo's strategy but did not introduce Cao Qinmo. She also said that the rewards given to Cao Qinmo were enough to offset Cao Qinmo's contributions. Even if Fei Yunyan was complaining in her heart, she did not dare to say anything in front of Nian Shilan. Cao Qinmo was just ignored like this, but who would have thought that she would have a day to make a comeback?
