Time Travel and Love

After finishing the wontons, they left Feiying to pay the bill. Mo Liujin supported her as they walked around. After all, they had nothing to do, so they walked much slower, and Chu Qingmeng didn't feel tired at all.

Peddlers and hawkers were shouting and hawking their wares.

She stopped in front of the cloth vendor and listened to his hawking with great interest. When she had heard enough, she walked forward, looked up at Mo Liujin and said, "Ah Jin, I've never felt that the capital city is so lively before."

"Today, there must be some kind of market or something. I've never seen this street so busy on weekdays." Mo Liujin would go out of the house almost every day as long as she was not asleep. He must have seen more people than she did in this month when she only went out a few times or even not at all.

Seeing the rice cake stall, Chu Qingmeng looked at Mo Liujin, saying nothing but smiling. However, the greed in his eyes could not be hidden. Mo Liujin felt helpless and waved his hand to let people go to buy. Turning back, he saw the jugglers again and was about to pull him to watch, but he was pulled back, "No, there are too many people. Don't let them bump into you."

The two of them just walked around for a while before Chu Qingmeng felt a little tired and reluctantly let her get on the horse, while Mo Liujin led the horse in front. However, before they could even leave the bustling city, they saw a farce.

An elderly woman wept bitterly, clutching her grandson. Across from them, a man in brocade clothing, riding a horse, frowned as he watched them silently. Listening to the conversations on the roadside, he realized that the grandparents and grandson made a living from this, but they hadn't expected to slip up today, and the child had actually been injured. The man had already given her all the silver he had, about a hundred taels in total, but she insisted on five hundred. He offered to pawn a jade pendant or something, but they refused, threatening to let him go without payment. The man was in a dilemma. With no one around and a poor conversationalist, he didn't know how to face them.

Chu Qingmeng looked at the man and shook his head and smiled. "Eleven's son, his appearance is too similar to him." Mo Liujin also raised an eyebrow. "Mo Jiangli, the eldest prince."

"Ajin." Chu Qingmeng raised her hand, wanting Mo Liujin to help her get off the horse. There were too many people, and she was not wearing a veil, only a veil. If she jumped off the horse by herself, the veil would fall off. Mo Liujin helped her off the horse, knowing that she was going to take care of it, and helped her to move forward, but Chu Qingmeng did not move. She just took her hairpin and asked Feiying to go to the restaurant next door to get five hundred taels of silver. That was the business she had asked Uncle Fu to set up. She took the money and asked him to compensate the old woman, but after all, she really hurt someone, and it would be inappropriate not to pay more. But Chu Qingmeng had no idea that these days, ten taels of silver could buy a person home as a slave.

"Old man, here's five hundred taels of silver. Please quickly find a doctor to see the child. My young master has urgent matters to attend to. We're done." Feiying winked at Mo Jiangli, signaling he could leave. Mo Jiangli instinctively scanned the crowd and spotted Mo Liujin and Chu Qingmeng. Chu Qingmeng didn't recognize him, but he knew Chu Qingmeng. On the day she forced the emperor to abdicate, she was dressed in sleek men's clothing, her swordsmanship was fluent, and her hair was a head full of white. Even without showing her face, he knew who she was.

Seeing him looking over, Chu Qingmeng nodded slightly. Mo Liujin gave him a look, signaling him to leave. Mo Jiangli bowed, nodded slightly, and rode away.

The old woman didn't take Feiying's money. Instead, she looked at him for a long time, and finally asked tentatively, "Are you the eldest brother of the Chu family, the one in the second courtyard at the east end of the village?"

Hearing the name 'Brother Chu', Feiying was stunned for a moment and looked carefully at the old woman in front of him. Uh, is she one of those aunts who always chatted with the master under the big locust tree?

"Oh, brother Chu, it's me, I'm Aunt Guihua!" The old woman saw him looking at her carefully and guessed that he couldn't remember.

Chu Qingmeng had obviously heard their conversation, and she exchanged a startled glance with Feiying. Aunt Guihua followed Feiying's gaze and saw a woman with white hair. Although her face was covered, her exposed eyebrows and eyes were exactly like the Chu girl's! However, despite her white hair, her eyebrows and eyes looked like a teenage girl.

Seeing that they knew each other, everyone felt that there was nothing interesting to watch and dispersed. Aunt Guihua patted the little grandson in her arms and said, "Dog, get up!"

The child stood up skillfully and patted the dirt off his body. Aunt Guihua looked at Feiying and laughed, "Brother Chu, was that the man just now the master of the family you work for? Look at your girl. Even though her face is covered, her eyebrows and eyes are exactly the same as my eldest sister's!"

Feiying broke out in a cold sweat after hearing her words. If the Third Master knew about this, wouldn't he kill him if he pretended to be the master's husband and accompanied the master in the village to take care of the baby? He quickly explained, "Aunt, you misunderstood. Back then, that wasn't my wife, but our master's wife. He just lied about us being husband and wife to avoid trouble. At that time, something unexpected happened at home, and our master couldn't accompany his wife, so he ordered us to hide his wife and give birth. Aunt, please don't say that I am his husband anymore."

"Huh? Rich people are just messy. What's going on?" Aunt Guihua complained silently in her heart.
