Chapter 171 Guess the Right
Nowadays, Xiong Yuning is becoming more and more comfortable when talking about compliments.
In fact, when Xiong Yuning praised this sentence, she didn't know how angry she must be, but Su Mumu accepted it happily.
Suddenly, a rutting sound sounded in the distance. Listening to the sound, Su Mumu raised a smile on her lips: "Here we come."
A carriage came from a distance. At the front of the carriage, Lu Qi was sitting in the driver's seat, waving a whip in her hand and rushing towards Su Mumu.
The carriage stopped in front of Su Mumu, and Lu Qi jumped out, but Nan Muchen did not come out of the carriage.
Lu Qi walked up to Su Mumu, half-knelt down in front of her, and said: "Princess."
"Where's the prince?" Did that unlucky guy want to let her go?
Lu Qi was silent for a while before replying: "Master, there is a sudden change on his side. Please let your subordinates inform the princess that he will not be able to come."
The premonition in her heart became a reality. Su Mumu was on the verge of tears, and at the same time she began to complain crazily in her heart.
Damn Nan Muchen, I didn’t want you to accompany me earlier, but you insisted on accompanying me.
Now I am longing for you to accompany me, but you say that something has happened and you can't come?
Damn arrogant, annoying, big talker. If she had known better, she shouldn't have listened to him. No, she would never want to listen to him again!
Before that, she had no hope that Nan Muchen would come to accompany her, but now that Nan Muchen said he would come, she believed him and was still here eagerly waiting for him.
But luckily for him, up to now, he didn't even see anyone. However, he sent Lu Qi over and said simply that he wouldn't come if he couldn't do it.
Regardless of whether it was before or after time travel, Su Mumu hated people who let go of pigeons, let alone Nan Muchen, so she hated them even more!
"Princess" Lu Qi kept her head down and couldn't see Su Mumu's expression, so she didn't dare to stand up. She could only raise her eyes slightly and glance at her from the corner of her eye.
Sure enough, seeing that her face was not very good, Lu Qi began to make amends for his master: "Princess, the master said that if you want to go shopping, let your subordinates accompany you."
But he didn't expect that this sentence would completely ignite the raging anger in Su Mumu's heart. She said "No thanks" to Lu Qi and quickly walked onto the street and blended into the crowd.
Lu Qi looked helplessly as Su Mumu left angrily. It was neither right to follow nor not to follow.
I can only silently mourn for my master in my heart, hoping that the next time my master faces the princess, he will not be scolded to death.
Bihe saw his master walking away and hurriedly followed him.
Intentionally or unintentionally, everyone seemed to have put Xiong Yuning aside, ignoring her existence and the look in her eyes that was becoming resentful little by little.
In this compartment, Su Mumu quickly shuttled through the crowds of people in the market. The hawking sounds that seemed lively to her before had now become noisy and harsh.
Now she had completely lost her temper, and she had nowhere to vent her frustration. She could only keep scolding that untrustworthy guy in her heart.
What, just let the pigeons go, and let Lu Qi replace him, it is really too bad!
I just wanted to go on with the lantern party and see what Xiong Yuning was up to. Unexpectedly, she was really angry with Nan Muchen now.
She should have understood Nan Muchen.
After all, Nan Muchen is currently very busy investigating the mastermind behind the scenes. He temporarily grounded her because he was worried about her.
If it were an ordinary person, Nan Muchen would not even bother to explain, but simply choose to ignore it.
So, what reason do I have to be angry with him?
Perhaps it is in line with the saying that people always leave tolerance to strangers, but leave harshness to the people they care about most.
Could it be that her requirements for Nan Muchen are really too strict?
Bihe hurriedly chased after Su Mumu from the crowd: "Princess, Princess, please slow down, Bihe, it's hard to catch up!"
Because she was running too fast, her breathing was messed up. It took a lot of effort to catch Su Mumu's sleeve.
Su Mumu turned her head and saw Bihe's little face turned red and panting slightly. She couldn't help but smile: "Okay Bihe, since the prince isn't coming, let's go shopping together!"
After saying that, he took Bihe's hand and together they looked left and right in the market, picking up things from stall to stall.
"Princess, Princess, look, the lanterns in this stall are so beautiful!" Bihe suddenly grabbed Su Mumu's hand with bright eyes and pulled her directly to a stall.
Bihe pointed to a lotus-shaped lantern. It was only about the size of a palm, but its workmanship was exquisite.
The color of each "petal" is from light to dark, and the pieces are closely packed together, with a little bright yellow "stamen" in the middle. It can be seen that the people who made the lanterns are very careful.
It was obvious that she loved the lantern very much. Her eyes were shining when she looked at the lantern, just like a child looking at her beloved toy.
"Little girl, do you want to come and see the lanterns?" The stall owner is a young man wearing dark blue cloth, with a signature yet polite smile on his thin face, "The lanterns in my stall must be paired.
If it’s right, I won’t charge you a penny for the lanterns!”
As soon as Bihe heard that he had to read couplets when buying lanterns, his face suddenly fell.
She had been sold to Prince Ding's Mansion since she was a child. She had never read any books seriously, and she didn't even know a few Chinese characters. How could she meet the right couple?
I thought I might as well give up and left with my head hanging down.
But unexpectedly, someone pulled her arm and pulled her back to the stall.
Turning around, she saw that the person pulling her was none other than Su Mumu.
Bihe looked at Su Mumu without knowing why, but the other party just smiled back at her, but that smile made Bihe inexplicably heartwarming.
Su Mumu held Bihe's sleeve with one hand, raised her other hand domineeringly, pointed at the lanterns and said, "As long as I match the right pair, these lanterns will be mine?"
The direction her fingertips were pointing was exactly the lotus lantern that Bihe had taken a fancy to before.
His domineering appearance attracted the attention of the young masters and ladies around him.
The boss knew that Su Mumu wanted to help Bihe get the lantern, so he simply took the lantern off the wooden shelf and said to Su Mumu: "As long as the girl can answer my three pairs correctly, this girl will naturally belong to me.
Don’t charge a penny!”
"Okay!" Su Mumu agreed readily.
But Bihe felt sorry for himself. How could the master fight for the lanterns for his slaves?
At first she just thought the lanterns were pretty, but looking back over the years, she had never really celebrated the Lantern Festival, nor had she let off a single lantern.
She grew up in Prince Ding's Mansion. Every year during the Lantern Festival, she could only go to the streets to look around and feast her eyes.
