After returning to his room from Wen Ruoxue's house, Hu Luanfei buried his head in the quilt, thinking about what Wen Ruoxue had just said.

Many times, she suspected that Qi Siliao did not love her at all, and that he was forced to marry her and consummate the marriage with her.

But many people jumped out and said that Qi Siliao loved her very much, so much that he was willing to give up his life for her.

Now, she couldn't tell the directions, nor could she tell the truth from falsehood in other people's words.

She was almost out of breath.

The letter in his hand was crumpled up and thrown into the trash can at the end of the bed.

Facing the empty bed, she recalled the scene of Qi Si Liao lying beside her and secretly reading a pornographic book, and she felt sad. She thought she could live well without anyone, but when the day of separation came, she couldn't remain calm.

It's okay during the day, there are so many people and so many thoughts, I seldom have time to miss someone. But it's different at night, I'm used to fighting for the bed with two people, but suddenly it's quiet and I feel particularly lonely.

But she couldn't go to him directly. Once she went there, she would play into the enemy's hands. Not only would she not be able to help Qi Siliao, she might even hinder him.

She would find a chance to investigate the matter of the letter later. The most important thing now was to take care of Menghushan first, so as not to fall into someone else's trap due to impulse.

Hu Luanfei fell into a deep sleep in a daze...

At the crowing of the cock the next day, Taohua Village welcomed an uninvited guest.

His Royal Highness Prince Beiqiu came in person, and the villagers who got up early all looked at him with puzzled eyes and were in a state of confusion.

Passing by the village, I saw several old men and women sitting under a banyan tree, roasting fire and cooking sweet potatoes. Smoke was curling up, and the air was filled with the scent of fireworks that should be in winter.

The stranger arrived for the first time, and seeing that he was handsome and wealthy, the old lady, who always liked to match people up with others, could not sit still. She looked at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sincerely, and whispered to each other about his posture and appearance, and estimated his wealth.

In just a few steps, the prince was discussed several times from beginning to end. His face was livid, and because this place was not under his jurisdiction, he walked into the old lady's camp with a stern face and chest puffed out.

Seeing that they were almost at the end of the road, some brave old lady trotted over to catch up with him, and with a toothless smile, she asked, "How old are you this year, young man? Are you married? Do you have a crush on someone?"

The prince looked unhappy. His upbringing over the years did not allow him to be disrespectful to the elderly. In addition, he was visiting incognito today, so it was impossible for him to reject the elderly's kindness. He immediately replied politely: "I am over 18 and have not yet married..."

Before he finished speaking, the old lady was overjoyed and immediately interrupted him, "It just so happens that I have a girl who just turned sixteen, very pretty and beautiful, and she has not yet been betrothed. Young man, come home with me to see her, and if you are satisfied, we can arrange the marriage."

A bird came out and was not hit by the slingshot, and several other birds also flew out after smelling the scent.

The old lady's abacus was clanging loudly, and the beads were bouncing on the faces of the guards behind her. Without the prince's order, they had no reason to rush forward and chase him away, so they just followed silently.

The prince's eyes twitched, and the guards behind him looked up at the sky and down at the ground, but not at him.

Soon, the prince was surrounded.

The old men didn't want to miss out on this popular opportunity, and all of them joined in the fight to get her.

They were in a hurry to grab the food, and a fierce battle began with foul language.

Hu Luanfei had just come out of Yansi's house when he happened to meet a group of uncles and aunts quarreling. They were all speaking Taohua Village dialect, and some of it was hard to understand, but he could still hear a few key words... something like "How can your daughter with a pig-like brain be worthy of a rich family?" or "How dare your daughter with crooked eyes and a crooked mouth propose marriage to someone?" What's worse, an aunt scolded the uncle's daughter for flirting at such a young age, and the uncle was so angry that he and the aunt started fighting in public.

What's going on in front of me?

Why is there a handsome young man standing in the middle of a melee?

It must have been dazzling.

Hu Luanfei made an excuse to escape.

The Crown Prince, who had sharp eyes, immediately used his lightness skills to leap to the side of Hu Luanfei and landed next to him.

Is this a dream? It must be a dream!

Hu Luanfei quickened his pace, wishing he could grow a pair of wings on his feet.

"Princess Zhan." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince called out sinisterly.

Hu Luanfei pretended not to hear and hurried home with the pickles given by Yansi. Before she took a few steps, she felt a force pressing down on her shoulder. She stopped and slowly turned back.

The prince's ferocious eyes were staring at her as if she owed him millions.

"Oh, what a coincidence! Are you also coming to Taohua Village to enjoy the flowers?" Hu Luanfei smiled sweetly, not caring about other people's unhappiness at all.

"Help me." The prince demanded coldly.

Hu Luanfei was still smiling, not affected at all by the increasing strength on her shoulders. "I have a lot of things to do here, and I don't plan to go back to the palace with the Crown Prince for the time being. Besides, His Majesty doesn't want to talk to me at all, so it would be a waste of time for me to go back with you."

"You can call me Xuanyuan Yuchuan."

Hu Luanfei pointed at herself, quite suspicious. She wanted to refuse, but the prince's sincere eyes made her unable to say it. She frowned and thought secretly: This man doesn't look like a bad person. He looks fierce, but he is actually quite gentle.

"Princess Zhan."

"Ok?"

"help me."

"help you with what?"

Xuanyuan Yuchuan frowned, closed his eyes in pain, and gently lifted up his robe.

Hu Luanfei looked down distractedly and felt vaguely that something was wrong with his feet, but he couldn't see clearly at the moment. When he slightly raised his foot, a smell of shit hit his nose, and then he realized that he had stepped on cow dung...

Even though stepping on shit is common in the countryside, I still couldn't help but feel nauseous.

Xuanyuan Yuchuan tightened his grip, and Hu Luanfei suddenly felt that his shoulder was about to break, and he begged for mercy: "Please let me go."

Then he pointed to the vegetable garden and said, "There is a stream there. Go this way and that way, then go over there and wash the soles of your shoes..."

Hu Luanfei demonstrated how to deal with stepping on shit, and Xuanyuan Yuchuan followed suit, which was hilarious. Perhaps because she was too arrogant, he saw her snickering expression, and she became angry and reached out to control her again.

"Princess Zhan, you are disrespectful." Xuanyuan Yuchuan also felt that he had lost face. It was rare to see his ears and face turn red.

Hu Luan ran very fast, and in the blink of an eye, he had arrived at the edge of the vegetable garden.

In order to resist the cold, Hu Luanfei specially built several greenhouses. While others cannot eat fresh fruits and vegetables in winter, her winter is no different from spring, summer and autumn. If she has to say there is any difference, the things she plants grow well and the harvest is good. This alone makes her beat everyone else.

Xuanyuan Yuchuan grew up in the palace and learned many new things from picture books. He was sure that the books and picture books he had read were the best in Beiqiu. But Hu Luanfei's vegetable garden was different. He had never seen it before.
