Portable Space: The Peasant Princess

Mu Qing glanced at him lightly, narrowed her eyes and said, "It's nothing."

"Uh..." Yan Shaoxu smiled awkwardly and said, "The sun has set. I'm afraid I won't be able to pick the lotus pods at this time. If you don't mind, you can just pick them from me."

Gu Panxia smiled and said, "We don't want too many, just give us a few."

When the two girls standing aside heard this, one of them bent down and picked up a dozen good-looking ones, took them forward and handed them to Gu Panxia.

"Ma'am, here it is!"

"Thanks!"

Gu Panxia took it, took one out and gave it to Lu Xuefei, who was watching eagerly.

The girl smiled at Yan Shaoxu and said, "Axu, since Mr. Xue still has something to do, let's wait until we get together next time."

"This..." Yan Shaoxu looked at Xue Yan, then at the woman who was staring at him tenderly, nodded and said, "Okay then!"

He said to Xue Yan: "Ayan, this is my unmarried wife, Lu Xiao."

Xue Yan nodded to Lu Xiao and said, "Miss Lu!"

Lu Xiao smiled and said: "I often hear A Xu mention Mr. Xue. When I saw him today, he turned out to be a talented man."

"Excellent!"

After the two were polite, Mu Qing couldn't help but interject: "It's getting late, you haven't recovered from your illness, and you have to travel at night, so we'd better go back early."

Xue Yan looked at him in surprise, but saw him cough slightly and look away.

Gu Panxia and Lu Yuan looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.

Could it be that Mu Qing was so teased that he actually fell in love with Xue Yan?

When Yan Shaoxu heard this, he remembered Xue Yan's serious illness and said hurriedly: "Yes, the night was cold and dew heavy, and A Yan is still ill, so he'd better go back and rest early."

Xue Yan said with a smile: "In that case, let's not go through with it!"

Yan Shaoxu nodded, "Okay! I will go to Beicheng to find you tomorrow, and we will have a drink together."

Gu Panxia and Lu Yuan smiled and nodded at Yan Shaoxu and Lu Xiao, then hugged Lu Xuefei and followed Xue Yan and Mu Qing.

When they disappeared at the round gate of Yao Yue Pool, the girl who was standing silently stepped forward and said, "The look in the eyes of Mr. Mu, Mr. Yan, is really scary! Could Mr. Yan have offended him?"

Yan Shaoxu shook his head, he was also very confused.

It was the first time they met, so he really couldn't figure out where Mu Qing's hostility towards him came from.

However, the attentive Lu Xiao discovered the reason why something was wrong with Mu Qing.

She smiled and said: "It was fine at first, but after you hugged Mr. Xue, the way Mr. Mu looked at you changed."

"Ah?" Yan Shaoxu was shocked, "You mean that Mr. Mu is hostile to me because I hugged Ayan."

Lu Xiao chuckled and nodded, "Nine times out of ten!"

"Ah? Ah Xiao, you mean that the Muda man is... Duanxiu?"

The girl standing nearby was also shocked.

"I see!"

Yan Shaoxu, who knew the whole story, really found it innocent and funny.

————

Ever since he said he cared about Xue Yan at the Yao Yue Pond, Mu Qing had never spoken again along the way.

Gu Panxia and Lu Yuan knew that he was unhappy, but they did not expose it.

Xue Yan acted like a normal person, teasing Lu Xuefei a few words, and chatting with Lu Yuan and Gu Panxia about his old past.

When they returned to their accommodation, Mu Qing and others dismounted without saying a word, led the horses and left without saying a word.

Zhu Hua, who was peeling oranges and walking out, happened to bump into him and greeted him. He just nodded and walked away with a cold expression.
