The princess only wants to get rich and support her family

"Oh, a guest is coming?!" Hu Luanfei rubbed the tip of his nose which was cooled by the wind, walked past them, picked up a hoe from the corner of the door and prepared to go out.

Qi Siliao stopped her and asked, "Where are you going?"

The cold tone made Hu Luanfei even more unhappy.

She lost her patience to talk, and her voice became shrill, "It's none of your business where I go, get out of the way!"

His brows were furrowed, and his deep pupils stared at her. "You have changed since a while ago. Why, my king...what did I do to displease you?"

In front of outsiders, he always called himself "I", and only when he was in front of her was he "This King".

Oh, that damn feeling of difference is really annoying.

Jiao Lan watched for a long time and couldn't help it any longer, so she quietly tugged at Qi Siliao's clothes. This small action was seen by Hu Luanfei.

I remember Jiao Lan said that she was born and raised in this poor place, but why did they know each other?

Qi Si Liao turned his head and looked at her, "What's wrong?"

The voice was without any emotional ups and downs, low and mellow, and it made people's ears feel tingling.

Jiao Lan pretended to be embarrassed and said, "It seems that I was too rude today. Let's come back another day."

As he said this, he glanced at Hu Luanfei.

We are all smart people, how could we not see this?

"Well, I just said that my beloved wife doesn't like others to visit her. If you insist on coming, you can't blame me for not being able to entertain guests."

"Uh... okay." Jiao Lan couldn't save face and hesitated.

Although he was accused of not liking people coming to his home, he felt a little relieved because he vaguely heard that Jiao Lan was not invited here by him.

However, his patience had run out. Hu Luanfei glanced at her slowly and asked, "What? Is there anything else?"

"No, no, no..." She glanced at Qi Siliao and pointed at the door reluctantly, "Then I'll go back first."

Qi Siliao's eyes were fixed on Hu Luanfei's face. She was unhappy, and he was even more unhappy.

The two of them stared at each other, indifferent to Jiao Lan's words.

The young couple was having a bad temper, and Jiao Lan didn't feel comfortable staying any longer. She glanced at them and kept looking back.

A woman's sixth sense is very accurate. At first, Hu Luanfei didn't hear or see Jiao Lan's feelings for Qi Siliao, but when she sensed a different feeling, she came to the conclusion: Jiao Lan had an excessive amount of romantic feelings for Qi Siliao.

"How long have you known her? How many times have you met her? What have you said? Explain everything to me in detail." Hu Luanfei questioned the man in front of him who looked so abominable.

Qi Si Liao's brain, which had been a little slow to react due to the wind, finally came to his senses. He realized the reason for her various behaviors and couldn't help but curl his lips, "So my beloved concubine is jealous."

is it?

Is the uncomfortable feeling you get from seeing him chatting and laughing with other women jealousy?

He was not the only one who realized it later, she was also...

But, seeing his playful look, why do I want to beat him up so much?

Hu Luanfei calmed down and gave him a slap on the face, "Why are you jealous? That woman knows everything about our family. Tell me clearly, did you leak information to her from time to time?"

He frowned, "Not really. This is only the second time I've run into her since I met her when I accompanied you to the market."

"That's strange, I thought you had known each other for a long time..."

"Wait!" he interrupted her. "You just said that she knows everything about our family?"

"Yes, he also knows that you have killed wolves and tigers."

Qi Si Liao's eyebrows were twisted into a knot. "In the village, apart from you and me, there is only one person who knows about this."

Hu Luanfei thought for a while, and suddenly opened his eyes wide, "It's Uncle Niu!"

He did not deny it, but fell into deeper thought.

If even Uncle Niu betrayed them, then who else in Taohua Village could they trust?

From this time on, Qi Siliao's heart became harder than before.

He must have what other people have.

Take the old yellow cow in Uncle Niu’s family for example, he must buy one no matter what.

Fine, if you can't persuade him, just let him go. Who told him to have a little temper sometimes?

But the price of cattle is much more expensive than sheep, not to mention that they have to be bought in Beiqiu Country.

The sun was setting in the west at this time, and the transformation of the slopes had been completed one after another. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, the workers had made the width of the farmland consistent, and they were already diverting water from the river into the fields.

All that was left was a cow to plow the fields, and I didn’t know whether Qi Siriao would really buy the cow.

Seeing that it was getting late, Hu Luanfei went home to cook, and at the same time thought about going to the market to buy some grain seeds tomorrow.

It was not until nightfall that Qi Siriao arrived home on time.

She came out of the kitchen and saw that he had nothing in his hands. "You went to buy a cow, where is the cow?"

He lowered his eyes, looking a little embarrassed, "I was in a hurry to go out, and I didn't bring any money."

"Oh...Is that so? Then wash your hands and eat first. I made some chicken soup and blanched some vegetables."

"Ah."

The dinner was simple, but he was absent-minded. He would stop eating and chew slowly. The traces of his expression in his eyes and eyebrows were sometimes fierce and sometimes powerless.

He was rarely seen like this, unless it was about court affairs.

Hu Luanfei suddenly felt a little sad.

She reached out and rubbed his head with her slender fingers.

Feeling the slight movement, Qi Siliao was visibly startled and looked up.

Under the candlelight, his confused eyes gradually became deep.

"If you have something on your mind, please don't hide it from me. As your wife, I want to share your sorrow." Hu Luanfei was burned by his gaze. She looked away involuntarily and picked up a lot of dishes for him.

Perhaps it was from this time that she had an unbreakable position in his heart.

Qi Siliao just kept looking at her like this, as if he wanted to engrave her shy look deeply in his mind, so that even if he was gone in the future, he could still remember her whenever he wanted.

Sometimes I always wonder, if she had not given up her pride and changed, would he have hesitated when making the choice?

Maybe, maybe not...

In this quiet night, thoughts filled his heart.

It is complicated and chaotic, and it is impossible to sort out. It is both sour and sweet.

If I push her back to Qi Sili in the end, would that be considered a good thing? This way she wouldn't have to worry about how to improve her life every day.

"Luan Fei..." he called out.

Hu Luanfei put down his chopsticks and looked into his sparkling eyes. "What's wrong? What do you want to confess to me?"

"I will return to the palace in a month." There was a hint of pleading in the tone.

Hu Luanfei lowered her eyes and bit her lip, "In fact, I already knew that you would not stay here peacefully."

He always knew that she was very smart, so she could guess what he was thinking without him having to say it explicitly.

"I'm sorry to upset you."

"Why are you upset? It's not like you won't be coming back."
