Shanzi hugged Xing’er tighter: “I just want to bully you, I want to bully you severely in my dreams–”

“Xing’er, you are so soft–”

Shitou cursed in his heart, this wild couple, can’t they go to another place?

What if they pollute their prince’s eyes?

Looking at Xiao Yu next to him, he stared at the young man and woman under the moonlight with a sharp gaze, obviously very interested.

Shitou stretched out his hand, unyielding, but was slapped away by Xiao Yu: “Don’t make noise, this is much more interesting than watching a show.”

Fortunately, Shanzi didn’t make any further moves while hugging Xing’er, so Shanzi hugged for a while and then let go.

Xing’er started to cry softly, and her two little hands beat Shanzi’s chest: “You bully me, I hate you, you are bad——”

Shanzi grabbed her hand: “Well, I am bad, I just want to do bad things to you, hit me here.”

He grabbed Xing’er’s hand and rubbed it.

While rubbing, Shanzi said affectionately: “Xing’er, you, you are so pretty.”

Xiao Yu behind the tree couldn’t help but curl his lips.

Is this boy blind? This girl is so ugly, how can she be pretty?

Speaking of pretty, except for his mother, the little girl was also pretty.

At this time, a sharp shout came from the yard: “Xing’er, you dead girl, where have you been, why don’t you get back to me!”

Xing’er was frightened and quickly pushed Shanzi away, and hurriedly ran forward along the wall.

Shanzi still had his hands on his chest, standing there stupidly, watching Xing’er run away.

Xiao Yu curled his lips and touched Shitou: “Let’s go.”

There’s no show to watch, so why not go and listen to the little girl sing a little song?

The two walked back slowly.

There were fields all around except for the two nearby courtyards, and there were no other houses. The two walked on the small road, and it was quiet all around.

They climbed in from the backyard and saw that the lights in a whole row of houses were off.

The two touched Gu Fei’s window, held their breath, and listened for a while, but there was no sound in the house.

The two waited for a while under the window, and Xiao Yu winked at Shitou.

Shitou poked a small hole in the window paper, lit the five-drum chicken crow resurrection incense, and threw it in.

The two squatted outside the window and silently calculated the time.

When the time was almost up, Shitou tried to pull open the window. Although the window was closed, it was not plugged in, so it opened easily.

Shitou went in first and extinguished the incense. Xiao Yu went in and turned around to close the window.

The moonlight was very good tonight.

It was the 16th, and the moon was big and round.

They can see clearly in the room without turning on the lights.

The two looked around first. There was only a bed, a wardrobe, a table, and a chair in the room.

The two searched in the wardrobe for a while, but it was hard to say whether they had searched. There were only a few clothes in the wardrobe, and almost everything was visible.

Shitou touched around carefully, but there was no secret compartment or anything.

Looking at the rest of the place, everything was visible. There was no place to hide anything at all. They all turned their eyes to Gu Fei’s bed.

There was a small cabinet at the head of the bed, and the cabinet had two drawers.

Xiao Yu opened it and saw two pearl flowers inside.

He opened the drawer below and found a book inside.

Xiao Yu picked it up and identified it in the moonlight. The title was – “The Story of Yingying”.

He threw the book down and stared at Gu Fei wrapped in the quilt.

Under the moonlight, her face was as white as mutton-fat jade, covered by long eyelashes, quiet and beautiful.

Shitou came over: “My Lord, it’s not anywhere. Could it be under this little girl’s pillow?”

After laughing for a while, Xiao Yu said: “Is it her?”

Shitou nodded: “It’s her from the voice.”

Xiao Yu couldn’t help laughing again: “This little song – hahaha, how did she come up with it.”

Shitou scratched his head: “This little song is magical, I can sing it after listening to it once.”

Xiao Yu glanced at him: “You are not allowed to sing it even if you can sing it, hold it back.”

He looked up at the sky: “Now I finally understand why Uncle Ma said that she is just a little girl who knows nothing about the world and not a spy.”

“She is just a little girl, and she’s quite funny.”

“No one should be stupid enough to send such a person out as a spy.”

Spies were all strictly trained. Even he would not choose someone like Gu Fei to be a spy.

Gu Fei could never have thought that, with her natural stupidity, she successfully dispelled Xiao Yu’s last suspicion of her.

Xiao Yu waved his hand: “Let’s go, walk around first, and come back later.”

The two of them didn’t walk far before they saw another yard.

Shitou looked over: “This is Young Master’s courtyard, right?”

Xiao Yu suddenly lowered his voice and said: “Don’t make any noise, someone is coming.”

The two of them quickly hid behind a tree, and saw a young farmer walking along the wall, wandering under the wall.

After a while, a slender figure walked along the wall. It was clear in the moonlight that it was a girl.

The boy ran over quickly when he saw the girl and held her hand: “Xing’er, you’re finally here.”

Xing’er pulled back her hand and turned away: “Why did you ask me to come?”

Shanzi stammered: “Nothing, I just missed you and wanted to talk to you for a while.”

“Then talk, I’ll listen,” Xing’er said shyly.

Shanzi thought for a moment: “I’m going to the city to drive a cart today, too.”

“I pulled a few carts for others and earned more than a hundred coins.”

“Xing’er, I’ll go to the city again tomorrow and buy you a flower clip to wear when I make money.”

Xing’er said, “Hmm” shyly.

Shanzi suddenly reached out and hugged Xing’er: “Xing’er, hug me, I dream about you every day–”

Shitou behind the tree saw this scene and almost shouted.

Their princess was strict with the prince, and the prince’s master said that he couldn’t lose his virginity before the age of 20 because of his kung fu.

Any maid in the mansion who dared to seduce the prince would be beaten to death.

If any of the maids dared to seduce the prince, they would either be sent to the brothel or be beaten to death.

The maids in the mansion all acted like saints in front of the prince, not looking sideways. Their prince turned nineteen after the Chinese New Year, but he still had a long way to go.

Last time in Lincheng, someone invited their prince to go to the Jiaofang House to play, so he was worried. In the end, their prince slept there for a night, and he just slept.

If their prince saw the affairs of men and women and got interested, Shitou felt that his life would be in danger.

He quickly reached out to cover Xiao Yu’s eyes: “Prince, let’s stop watching, let’s go listen to that girl sing a little song.”

Xiao Yu pulled his hand away and whispered: “What’s wrong with seeing it? Humph, don’t think I don’t know anything, I’m just not interested in these.”

After all, he was nineteen years old, and he already knew what he should and shouldn’t know.

Isn’t it just a matter between men and women? Humph, he had seen many intimate paintings!

Xing’er struggled over there, whispering: “You, you are bad, you bully me——”

Xiao Yu stared: “Quickly twist it!”

Shitou stretched out his hand and gently pinched Huaping’s arm.

Xiao Yu shouted: “Use some strength, haven’t you eaten yet?”

Shitou was determined and twisted Huaping’s arm hard.

Huaping snorted, Xiao Yu stared at her and saw that her eyelashes trembled a few times, but she still didn’t wake up.

Xiao Yu shouted: “Okay!”

Shitou was frightened and quickly glanced at Huaping.

Xiao Yu slapped Shitou on the shoulder: “Let’s go——”

Shitou was about to cry: “Let’s go now?”

“My Lord, it’s only the 11th hour now, they shouldn’t be asleep yet.”

Xiao Yu snorted: “We have to find out which room that girl lives in while they’re still awake. Otherwise, if we search from room to room, won’t it take until dawn?”

Shitou was frowning, but he still flattered him as usual: “My Lord, you are wise. Well, if we want to go, let’s change into night clothes.”

Xiao Yu looked at him: “Do I have that thing?”

Shitou shook his head. Their prince didn’t do robbery before, so he naturally doesn’t have this kind of thing.

“What are you waiting for, let’s go!” Xiao Yu strode out of the study.

Shitou followed helplessly with a bitter face.

The two of them rode a fast horse each and walked to the gate. The gate was already closed. Shitou took out the token and the gatekeeper opened the gate. Shitou said: “I will be back soon. Be smart and call the gate and I will open it immediately.”

The gatekeeper nodded and bowed in response. Xiao Yu whipped the horsewhip and the two horses galloped away.

The fast horses arrived at the manor in less than a quarter of an hour.

The two of them dismounted from their horses far away, found a tree to tie the horses to, and then performed Qinggong and moved towards Gu Fei’s yard.

Gu Fei had finished her splitting activities at this time and was lying on the bed, reading a storybook.

She bought this secretly today. She didn’t want to see those domineering CEOs falling in love with me in the space anymore. When she came here, she had to keep up with the times and see how scholars and young ladies fall in love.

Maybe it will be useful in the future.

She put the book on the pillow, propped up her chin, and swung her legs leisurely.

Xiao Yu and Shitou had already reached the backyard. They jumped onto the wall and landed lightly.

They saw a figure reflected on the window of the main room in the east, and then a voice came: “Still reading, wash your feet and go to bed, what time is it now.”

After a while, a man’s voice came: “Hiss, it’s so hot, add some cold water.”

“This should be her father!”

Xiao Yu shook his head and saw that there was no light in the room next to him. He listened carefully and there was no sound, so he turned around and touched the other side.

After passing the main room, he saw that the light was on in the upper room in the west. Just as he was about to poke a hole in the window to look inside, he heard a faint singing coming from inside.

“The Little girl gets up early in the morning, holding up her pants to go to the toilet~, there are people in the toilet, and she has no choice but to poop in her pants~”

Xiao Yu was stunned when he heard these lewd words, his eyes widened, and he bit his lips tightly.

Looking at Shitou, he was not much better than him, covering his mouth, and his shoulders kept trembling.

The two of them were under the window, holding back their laughter, which was hard.

In the room, Gu Fei started her brainwashing cycle, and started the second time, “Little girl——”

Xiao Yu quickly made a gesture to Shitou, and the two retreated to the wall, took a breath, and jumped out.

The two ran wildly for a while until they ran very far, they let go of their throats and laughed.

Xiao Yu snorted: “No need for you, go and call Huaping for me.”

Huaping was Xiao Yu’s eldest maid, she was doing needlework in the side room, and when she heard Shitou calling her, she came over immediately.

Huaping raised the curtain, stood at the door, and bowed to Xiao Yu: “The prince called me?”

Xiao Yu nodded, looked around, and pointed to the chair behind the desk: “You sit there.”

Huaping said in panic: “I dare not, that’s where the prince sits.”

“Just sit down when I told you to, why are you talking so much nonsense!” Xiao Yu said impatiently.

Huaping didn’t dare to disobey Xiao Yu, so she had to walk to the chair trembling and sit down, then look at Xiao Yu stupidly.

Xiao Yu pointed at her: “Just sit there, don’t move. If I don’t let you move, don’t move around.”

Huaping nodded repeatedly: “My Lord, I won’t move.”

“That’s good!” Xiao Yu lifted the curtain and went out.

Huaping sat there in a panic. What did the Lord think of to torment her?

Xiao Yu walked out of the door and glanced at Shitou: “What are you waiting for? Light the incense!”

Shitou agreed, quickly took out a stick of incense and lit it, then lifted a corner of the curtain and threw it in.

The two walked to the window and looked inside through the window covered with rosy gauze.

They saw a figure sitting upright in front of the desk.

Xiao Yu whispered: “Calculate the time.”

The incense was thrown in, and the smoke curled up. After a while, Huaping noticed it.

She wanted to get up and check, but as soon as she moved, Xiao Yu’s voice came from outside: “Don’t move!”

Huaping was so scared that she sat back down obediently.

The study was soon filled with a special fragrance.

With a little sweetness, Huaping felt drowsy as she smelled it.

But she remembered that the prince asked her to sit down, so she forced herself to sit up.

But her eyelids became heavier, and her mind became more and more dizzy. Huaping finally couldn’t hold on and fell softly on the table.

Xiao Yu outside saw the figure in front of the desk fall, and he was happy. He turned around and asked Shitou: “How long did it take?”

Shitou thought: “Less than a quarter of an hour. I guess it’s because the room is big. If the room is small, it shouldn’t take so long.”

Xiao Yu was very satisfied.

He whispered: “We’ll go in later, you poke her and see if she wakes up.”

Shitou hesitated and said: “This, we don’t need it.”

Xiao Yu stared: “Why not? That thing, that girl must have hidden it secretly, maybe she hid it on herself. What if she wakes up when we look for it?”

Shitou suddenly said in fear: “My Lord, if we go in, we would fall like Huaping, right?”

Xiao Yu squinted his eyes: “This is also a problem.”

“When you go in later, cover your mouth and nose, put out the incense, and see how long it takes for Huaping to wake up.”

The two waited outside for a while, and Shitou took a handkerchief to cover his mouth and nose and then went into the study.

He put out the incense first, then walked to Huaping, stretched out a finger, and poked her arm: “Sister Huaping – Sister Huaping -”

No response.

Xiao Yu lifted the curtain and came in, picked up a pen from the desk, and brushed Huaping’s nose.

Huaping frowned slightly but still didn’t wake up.

Xiao Yu looked at Shitou: “Pinch her and see.”

Shitou looked at Xiao Yu with great grief and indignation: “My Lord, how can you make such a request?

She was a delicate and tender sister!

Next, they went to the embroidery shop and bought silk thread, a special brush for drawing patterns, an embroidery frame, and a few small frames. Then they met Gu Zhang and others at the city gate and went home together.

After returning home, Mrs. Chen took out the pair of pearl flowers she bought and insisted on putting them on Gu Fei’s head.

Gu Fei felt pain when she heard that she had spent ten taels of silver.

But it was already bought, so it would be useless if it was just left there.

Gu Fei returned to her room with two pearl flowers on her head, locked herself in the room, took out the book “Artificial Cultivation of Pearls”, copied it into the language of this era, and glossed over some of the contents involving modern knowledge, or replaced them with other words.

Pearls were so valuable, how could she not raise them?

Better raise them!

Although she felt a headache looking at some of the special terms in this book, and some of the operations in it were complicated, she still had to do it!

Although the family prepared to plant peppers in the spring, once peppers were on the market, they would become less and less valuable as more and more people planted them.

To make money, she has to rely on pearl farming.

The money of rich people was the easiest to make.

She doesn’t know how to operate, but she still has her father and her elder brother, as well as her capable mother. Everyone discusses and tries, and slowly they will always figure it out.

After dinner, Gu Fei handed the copied book to her father and let him digest it slowly.

She clapped her hands and went back to the room to split the thread with Lanzhi and Lian’er.

Today, they went to the embroidery shop to ask, and the shopkeeper didn’t believe in Lanzhi’s craftsmanship. He asked her to take some embroidery to see first. If her skills were acceptable, she would be given the work to take home.

Lanzhi planned to embroider a handkerchief and a purse. She was holding back her energy and wanted to embroider it very delicately.

The more delicate the work, the thinner the embroidery thread should be.

This thread has to be split, one thread, into two strands, four strands, or eight strands, and the most can be sixteen strands.

Mrs. Chen and Li Chunhua were sorting out some old clothes and cloth scraps, planning to make paste tomorrow, make jackets, and make soles.

The shoes bought outside were too expensive, so they had to make them at home.

Gu Qing took Xiao Cao to play, while Gu Erlang and Gu Sanlang fed the mules. Those who fetched water, fetched water. In short, no one was idle.

*

In Prince Qi’s Mansion, Xiao Yu was also busy.

He stared at Shitou, who took out a package from his arms with a sad face. When he opened it, there were more than ten incense sticks, which were more than one finger long.

Xiao Yu asked him: “What is this?”

Shitou made a bitter face: “The Rooster Crows at Five Drums to Resurrect Incense.”

Xiao Yu’s eyes lit up when he heard the name: “How do I use this thing?”

Shitou said helplessly: “Just light it and put it in the room.”

“This stick of incense can make people fall into a deep sleep and sleep until the fifth watch, which is when the rooster crows. That’s why it’s called the Rooster Crows at Five Drums to Resurrect Incense.”

Xiao Yu laughed: “This thing is good, it’s so good!”

“I said you have a lot of tricks, and it’s true!”

He stood up and turned around the room excitedly: “When this thing is lit, how long will it take for people to fall asleep?”

Shitou opened his mouth: “I don’t know about this. The person who gave me this thing didn’t tell me.”

Xiao Yu glared at him: “Idiot, you don’t even know to ask.”

“We have to know when this incense will take effect after it is lit. A quarter of an hour? Half an hour? Otherwise, we will light the incense and wait outside stupidly?”

Shitou quickly suggested: “My lord, how about we try it first?”

“Anyway, there are more than ten sticks here, which is enough.”

“Well, we have to try it.” Xiao Yu nodded.

He glanced at Shitou, who quickly shrank his neck: “My lord, I can’t do that. I have to go out with you at night.”
