Princess Jialing, who had eaten and drunk her fill, returned to her palace. Because her uncle lived in Jinling, Princess Jialing's palace was set up directly in the uncle's mansion.
Old man Li was bored in the backyard at this time. When he heard that his beloved niece was back, he rushed over in a hurry.
"Jia Jia, how is it?" Old man Li asked anxiously.
"The food is delicious." Tu Jiajia replied.
"Hey, I'm asking you what you think of Huo Chenan?" Old man Li continued to ask.
"The food he cooks is delicious."
"...", Old Man Li was speechless. He held his forehead with his hand and said helplessly: "Girl, can we stop thinking about food all the time?"
"Okay, uncle, I understand what you mean, but my ideal person must be a peerless hero. One day he will come to marry me on a seven-colored cloud."
Hearing this, Old Man Li was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, and said angrily: "Nonsense! Marriage is not a joke. Read less novels in the future."
"That's right, marriage is not a joke, how can I marry a servant?" Princess Jialing asked back.
Old Man Li was speechless after being refuted. Regarding the issue of identity, he mentioned it to Huo Chenan many times. As long as the boy said a word, he could help him regain his freedom, but the boy didn't want to owe him a favor and had to wait for three months. Thinking of the boy, Old Man Li was very angry again. Looking at the little ancestor in front of him, neither of them was a worry-free guy. Helplessly sighing, he could only stand there and sulk.
Princess Jialing saw this and hurried forward to hug Old Man Li's arm and said coquettishly, "Okay, uncle, I promise you that I will find you a nephew-in-law who can write and rule the world." Old Man Li doted on Princess Jialing's smooth forehead.
...
No words were spoken all night.
The next day, the whole Jinling City was filled with a festive atmosphere.
The Wu Wang Mansion is located in the most prosperous area of Jinling City. The front door is Xuanwu Street, and the back door is a river.
As the birthday banquet of King Wu approached, the number of carriages in front of the Wu Wang Mansion gradually increased. Most of them were wealthy officials from Jinling and surrounding areas, waiting for this opportunity to bring gifts to flatter King Wu in order to gain a chance to go further.
At the dock at the back door of the Wu Wang Mansion, a fleet of ships composed of a troupe had just docked, and seven or eight ships of all sizes soon filled the dock.
The steward of the Wuwang Mansion stood on the dock and directed everyone to load and unload all the items.
But he did not notice that there were seven or eight people in the opera troupe wearing bamboo hats carrying large boxes and followed everyone into the Wuwang Mansion.
…
At this time, on the river, a black-sailed boat pushed away the weeping willows reflected in the clear water and slowly sailed over in the warm spring breeze.
A lantern was hung on the bow of the black-sailed boat, and a traditional Chinese Su was written on the lampshade made of white paper.
And at the stern of the black-sailed boat, a handsome young man in a green hat was rowing hard.
"Sister, I'm so tired. I should have asked Zhang San to row for me earlier." Huo Chenan couldn't help but regret it. Before he crossed over, he always drove a yacht with one hand. This time he also wanted to experience the fun of rowing. The result is self-evident.
Fortunately, the Su family went downstream to the Wuwang Mansion, otherwise I really don't know when I would row. If it doesn't work when I go back, I can rent a carriage. Huo Chenan looked at the back door of the Wuwang Mansion in front of him and thought.
When he got closer to the dock, he had to face another problem. There was no parking space. No, there was no place to park the boat.
Looking at the crowded dock, Huo Chenan couldn't help but feel troubled. He simply made up his mind and stopped his boat behind several boats.
After tying the reins, Huo Chenan followed the instructions of the housekeeper of the palace and walked inside. Suddenly, he saw Qin Wushuang who came to deliver wine.
"Miss Wushuang."
"Mr. Huo."
"Are all the wines ready?"
"All ready, these are the last twenty jars."
"The girl is really capable. I feel like I got a great deal."
"Mr. Huo, that's not right. If it weren't for Mr. Huo, Wushuang's life would be so hard. By the way." Qin Wushuang took out a sachet from his arms, and a faint fragrance came to his face.
She solemnly handed the sachet to Huo Chenan and said, "Mr. Huo, here are the previous dividends. I have deducted the money you invested, and now there are 400 taels." Huo Chenan did not rush to take it, but asked, "Is the money enough for the location and operation of the tavern enough?" "Mr. Huo, don't worry, I have prepared the operating money. Please accept it." Looking at Qin Wushuang's earnest eyes, Huo Chenan nodded and took the sachet. His fingertips accidentally touched Wushuang's hand, and a greasy feeling came from his fingertips. Feeling the electric shock on her hand, Miss Wushuang's face instantly turned red, and her little hand shrank back suddenly. "Well, I still have a performance to prepare, so I'll go in first." Huo Chenan said hurriedly. "Well, Wushuang will take my leave first." After saying goodbye to Qin Wushuang, Huo Chenan entered the King Wu's Mansion. As soon as he entered the door, he saw the eagerly waiting Peony Girl. Mudan frowned at Huo Chenan in his green clothes and hat.
"Mr. Huo, today is the birthday of the King of Wu. Isn't it inappropriate for you to dress like this?"
Huo Chenan smiled awkwardly, "But I don't have any other clothes."
"Come with me." Miss Mudan took Huo Chenan's hand and led him inside.
"Well, it feels so smooth." Huo Chenan was thinking in his heart, and was pulled away by the goddess in the envious eyes of everyone.
...
Wang Wangfu's room.
Wu Wang's son thought Mudan's words made sense, so he took out several sets of clothes for him to choose.
Mudan fell in love with an indigo long gown at first sight. When Huo Chenan changed his clothes, Miss Mudan did not avoid him, and personally helped Huo Chenan to tidy up his clothes. This made him, a time traveler, blush, "It would be great if all the girls in Dashun were so open."
After Huo Chenan changed his clothes, Miss Mudan personally helped Huo Chenan comb his hair into a half-tied hairstyle.
Looking at the gentle and careful Mudan, Huo Chenan even felt that there was nothing more a husband could ask for after marrying such a wife.
After a while of dressing up, Huo Chenan looked at himself in the bronze mirror and couldn't believe his eyes. Who is this handsome guy?
Chu Liuxiang, Pan An, Wei Jie, they are all younger brothers in front of their brother.
Even Miss Mudan, who created all this with her own hands, stared at Huo Chenan in front of her blankly, unable to come back to her senses for a long time.
"Miss Mudan, thank you. Miss Mudan?"
Huo Chenan called Mudan twice before she came back to her senses, which made her blush.
