Chapter 265: The Man on the Road is Like a Jade King
After planting the fields, Chu Nanyue struck while the iron was hot and went to the cloth shop to choose cloth. Originally, Xiao Hanye was going to go with her, but when she was about to go out, she was called away by Jiang Yan, so she took Xiao Tao with her and went ahead.
There were shops on both sides of the street, and the faint afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the eaves of the buildings. Chu Nanyue raised her eyes and glanced at the gilded plaque in front of her.
Longyue Pavilion is the largest cloth shop in the capital, and only high-ranking officials and dignitaries patronize it.
Chu Nanyue sighed at the prosperity of Beixiao Kingdom and was about to stride forward. At this moment, an extremely inappropriate voice came from behind him.
"Fourth sister-in-law, fourth sister-in-law, help me catch him."
As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Nanyue felt a hurricane passing by.
When she looked closely, she found that it was a very burly man. She glanced at Xiao Yihang behind her with resentment: "!!!"
You think too highly of her, don't you?
"Little thief, don't run!" Xiao Yihang shouted loudly while running.
Chu Nanyue frowned. She had to admit that Prince Chen was definitely the most down-to-earth prince she had ever seen.
In order to preserve his simplicity, she tried her best: "Xiao Tao, chase him!"
Xiao Tao: “!!!”
Although he was extremely doubtful about his life, he still ran with all his might.
Chu Nanyue held the zombie pill in his hand and made a handsome throwing gesture.
"Oh yeah, I got it!"
Looking at the little thief who suddenly stopped, Chu Nanyue cheered.
But the next moment, she couldn't help but covered her eyes.
Xiao Tao rubbed her sore nose and said with tears in her eyes: "Wuwu...Princess, you are playing with me."
Chu Nanyue's mouth twitched: "No, I didn't expect it to be so accurate."
You know, she didn't catch any of them last time she tried to toss the ring.
"Thank you, Fourth Sister-in-law. I knew that your actions would be absolutely foolproof." Xiao Yihang bowed his head to thank her, then walked over and knocked the little thief's head hard. "Run, aren't you a good runner? Why don't you run? Why don't you learn something else at such a young age? Why do you have to learn to be a flower-stealing thief? How can you not be ashamed to steal flowers when you look like this?"
"Take him away!" He waved his hand at the city guards in disgust.
After that, he did not forget to comfort Xiao Tao: "Xiao Tao helped out, the government will reward you with two taels of silver."
"Really?" Xiao Tao stopped crying immediately and looked up at Xiao Yihang expectantly. After the silver fell into her hands, she burst into tears and said, "Thank you, Prince Chen. I will continue to work hard in the future."
Chu Nanyue's eyes widened: "Isn't it my credit?"
Hearing this, Xiaotao quickly put the silver in her arms.
Xiao Yihang ignored her and changed the subject: "Fourth sister-in-law, are you here to choose fabrics? Let me help you choose."
After saying this, he pushed her in.
Chu Nanyue asked: "Leaving get off work early?"
Xiao Yihang raised his eyebrows and replied: "It depends on the person. When I see my fourth sister-in-law, I will naturally leave work early."
Chu Nanyue smiled and replied: "You are not afraid of being judged, but you are really just trying to make a living, right?"
Having his secret thoughts exposed, Xiao Yihang touched his nose awkwardly: "Hehe, I haven't tasted Fourth Sister-in-law's cooking for a long time, I miss it very much."
Chu Nanyue said generously: "I'll make ice porridge tonight."
Xiao Yihang quickly responded: "Okay, okay!"
The two of them made the decision happily.
At this time, Xiao Jun'an passed by here. He saw Chu Nanyue's back at a glance, dismounted and said, "Fourth brother, fourth sister-in-law."
Chu Nanyue looked back and corrected him, "Not the fourth brother, but the seventh brother." Then, she smiled and bowed, "Greetings, King Yu."
Xiao Jun'an was surprised and asked, "It's my seventh brother?"
He had only looked at Chu Nanyue just now, so he naturally mistook the tall man in black armor next to her for Xiao Hanye, but he didn't expect it to be Xiao Yihang.
It has been less than two days since they got married, and Xiao Hanye didn't even accompany her. Is she not living a good life?
But when he lowered his eyes, he saw that she had a pretty and charming face with a pleasant smile on her lips. She didn't look like a resentful woman at all.
Is he overthinking it? Or is he expecting something?
"Third brother, why are you here alone instead of staying at home to accompany your two young sisters-in-law?" Xiao Yihang greeted him with a playful smile.
Unexpectedly, within less than a year, his third and fourth brothers were married, while his second brother, who had been looking for a good match, was still single.
It was like a dream.
Xiao Jun'an subconsciously looked towards Chu Nanyue, but saw that Chu Nanyue was staring at him. He couldn't help but ask, "But is there something strange on my face?"
Chu Nanyue looked back and stuttered for some reason: "Not really..."
In fact, she just suddenly remembered that the Prince of the Western Regions was madly infatuated with him, and thought that the Princess of the Western Regions and Lin Yueyao had also expressed their love to him in person, so she couldn't help but look at him carefully.
Although Xiao Jun'an's facial features are not as arrogant, ostentatious and eye-catching as Xiao Hanye's, he has his own unique temperament, which is introverted, gentle and elegant.
The saying "the man on the street is as beautiful as jade and a gentleman is unparalleled in the world" probably describes people like him, who are popular with both men and women.
Moreover, she was actually in a trance for a moment when she was looking at him just now. She didn't know if it was because she was missing her elder brother. She actually saw the shadow of her elder brother in him. No wonder, both of them were the kind of people with gentle eyebrows and handsome faces.
It was rare for Xiao Yihang to see Chu Nanyue at a loss for words. He touched his nose and looked at Xiao Jun'an in confusion. After examining him for a while, he said quietly, "Third brother has been immersed in the land of gentleness and his appearance has softened a bit. It really is true that the saying goes, steel can be turned into soft silk after being tempered a hundred times."
He suddenly wanted to see his fourth brother.
He hasn't seen him since his fourth brother got married. He wonders what his fourth sister-in-law has done to him.
Xiao Jun'an's handsome face darkened in an instant. Looking at Chu Nanyue who was trying not to laugh, he subconsciously explained, "Seventh brother, don't talk nonsense. The king has been in the military camp these past two days."
He and Ouyang Xue completed the wedding ceremony step by step and went to the military camp the next day.
He did not want to get married, but he could not disobey his father's order.
Xiao Yihang said with a look of regret: "Third brother, this is not okay. Both of my two sisters-in-law are absolutely beautiful. How can you let them stay alone in an empty room?"
He is the one who cherishes flowers the most.
"Is that right, Sister-in-law?"
"Yes!" Chu Nanyue blurted out, and then immediately changed her words, "It must be that the military camp is busy with affairs, and Prince Yu can't make time. Prince Yan also went to the military camp for half a day today."
"The correct way for men and women to get along is for you to do your own thing and I to do mine. There's no need to be together all the time, but everything should be done in a timely manner and responded to."
Xiao Jun'an's eyes lit up. Chu Nanyue was indeed insightful. Then he felt annoyed. He lowered his face and said goodbye, "I have something else to do. I'll take my leave first."
After Xiao Yihang bid farewell to Xiao Jun'an, he asked Chu Nanyue: "By the way, Fourth Sister-in-law, what kind of pills did you throw at that flower-stealing thief just now? Can you give me some? Maybe it will help me catch thieves more efficiently in the future."
Chu Nanyue raised her eyebrows and said, "Why not? Fourth sister-in-law will give it to you!" As she took it out, her eyes were filled with foxy cunning, "If it works, Seventh brother must petition the court to vigorously promote this medicine."
Her zombie pill is very good at catching thieves.
Xiao Yihang looked at Chu Nanyue who looked like a philistine. Not only did he not despise her, but his eyes and eyebrows were full of smiles like hers. He patted his chest and promised, "Of course!"
He admired Chu Nanyue's sincerity the most.
The two of them were chatting and laughing, and did not notice at all that an exquisite little porcelain bottle had slipped to the ground.
Xiao Jun'an bent over to pick it up and was about to call Chu Nanyue, but when he smelled the strange fragrance inside, he quietly stuffed it into his arms, then jumped on his horse and left quickly...
