NOVEL NEXT Chapter 337: Raw rice and cooked rice
Not long after Ye Qingran left, Chu Qingyun couldn't help but start to worry.
Although he understood that Ye Qingran herself was very capable and her martial arts skills were not bad, and with her own manpower and the secret guards he sent, theoretically it should be safe, but he always unconsciously guessed about the dangerous ones. situation.
Also, if you think too deeply, you may even be shocked, and then you will realize that it was just your imagination.
"My lord, are you there?"
Suddenly, someone knocked on the door outside.
Xia Shuangshuang stood outside the door with a hint of shyness on her face, holding some fruits in her hands. They looked very fresh and must have been freshly picked.
"Who?" Chu Qingyun frowned slightly.
"I am Xia Shuangshuang. I gave you food before. Have you forgotten?"
"what's up?"
To be honest, Chu Qingyun didn't remember such a person, but he still asked politely.
"I picked some winter fruits on the mountain with my uncle and aunt. They were very sweet, so I brought them to you, Prince, to try."
"No need."
Xia Shuangshuang, who was rejected by Chu Qingyun, was a little embarrassed, but she still persisted: "This is what the villagers gave to the prince specially. Please try it. If the prince doesn't want me to come in, I will leave it outside the door, okay?" ?”
"I said, no need, take it away and you can eat it yourself."
His tone was very cold, and Xia Shuangshuang felt the chill even through the door.
I also knew deep down that he was a little impatient.
The news about Ye Qingran's resurrection from the dead had already made her a little disappointed. Seeing the two of them hanging together all day long, she had no chance to get close to Chu Qingyun. Finally, now that Ye Qingran was gone, Chu Qingyun still refused to let him go. Besides, she was a little unconvinced.
But no matter how unconvinced he was, he couldn't touch his brow at this time, so he responded and left.
Just because she left this time doesn't mean she just gave up.
Later, she found different reasons to get close to Chu Qingyun, but no matter how hard she tried to please him, he always looked impatient and just wanted to stay away from her.
No matter how unwilling she was, she still understood that Chu Qingyun was an infatuated man, but it was a pity that the object of his infatuation was not her.
How could Chu Qingyun not know what she was thinking? But it's not easy to directly embarrass a little girl, so he keeps looking for excuses to stay away from her and reject her, but she always refuses to give up, which annoys him.
On this day, Xia Shuangshuang found Chu Qingyun again on the pretext of helping the villagers.
After Chu Qingyun solved the problem in a few words, he was about to send her away.
I don’t know why today, she did not leave directly, but looked at him steadily and asked: "My lord, do you hate me? Because I am not as beautiful as Miss Ye and not as smart as her?"
"Since you understand, why ask?"
Hearing this answer, Xia Shuangshuang was stunned.
Although she didn't expect him to say anything nice, she would at least maintain basic courtesy and speak tactfully. She didn't expect him to be so decisive.
She bit her lip: "I understand, I just want to have a few more words with the prince, I have no other ideas."
"Is that enough now?"
Chu Qingyun looked at her coldly, not intending to give her any hope, and even wanted to extinguish any luck in her heart.
Xia Shuangshuang couldn't help but feel a little aggrieved, but she still nodded and replied, "That's enough, the civilian girl will leave."
She cried and left the room. Many villagers outside saw her and shook their heads and sighed.
They also watched Xia Shuangshuang go to find Chu Qingyun in the past few days. Anyone with a discerning eye could see what she was thinking, but it was normal for such a little girl to have someone she admired, so they didn't stop her.
However, they also understood that Chu Qingyun and Ye Qingran had a very good relationship, and Xia Shuangshuang would gain nothing by doing this.
It's just that it's normal for men to have three wives and four concubines. Generally speaking, a powerful man like Chu Qingyun has many wives and concubines. Maybe Xia Shuangshuang will really have a chance someday.
Xia Shuangshuang has been living with her uncle and aunt. Although they are not related by blood, they helped each other and saved their lives when they were fleeing the famine. Now they live together. They are not relatives more than relatives.
As soon as she returned home, her uncle and aunt came over and asked, "Nier, why are you crying? Didn't you go find the prince?"
"My lord, he didn't want to talk to me anymore, so he drove me back... wu wu wu... Why, how am I inferior to that Ye Qingran?"
The aunt patted her shoulder to comfort her: "This...sometimes men like to be first-come, first-served. If Miss Ye gets to know him first, and they spend more time together, they will naturally have a better relationship. This matter cannot be rushed."
"Nier, don't worry, we'll just help you think of something."
The uncle asked her to sit down and said, "After all, this prince is a relative of the emperor and came from the capital. He has seen the world and seen many beauties. It is difficult for you to attract him in this way. You might as well use some strange tricks." .”
These words aroused Xia Shuangshuang's curiosity: "What's the strange trick?"
"A person as prestigious as the prince cannot tolerate his reputation being damaged. If something happens between you and him, he will have to marry you."
The uncle smiled and said, "Even if you can't compete with Miss Ye, getting a prince's concubine is much more noble than ordinary people, isn't it?"
"What should I do? He doesn't even want to see me, so how can he be willing to be with me..."
"Hey, let's think of something. In a few days, shouldn't we have a banquet to thank Prince Wang and Miss Ye? The village chief has already made arrangements. Although Miss Ye is not here, Prince Wang is here, isn't this a good opportunity?"
"You mean to give the prince wine at the banquet so that he can get close to him after he is drunk?"
"Yes, there is no way around it. He refuses to get close to you, so you just take the opportunity to sleep with him in the same bed. Regardless of whether he has done that kind of thing or not, this reputation is weighing on his head, and he is embarrassed. Isn’t it irresponsible?”
After hearing this, Xia Shuangshuang also felt that doing so was her only chance.
If she waits for Ye Qingran to come back, then she really has no chance.
Although the relationship between Chu Qingyun and Ye Qingran was very good, it seemed that they were not married. Otherwise, the third prince would not have called her the guilty daughter before, but should have called her the princess.
Maybe Ye Qingran wouldn't be able to marry Chu Qingyun because of her status as a sinner.
Although she, Xia Shuangshuang, is not a wealthy person, she is still better than Sin Nu. As long as she sleeps in the same bed with Chu Qingyun, she can marry Chu Qingyun after one night.
Naturally her aunts and uncles also wanted her to succeed.
After all, if you become a noble person like the prince, you will not have to worry about food and drink in the future. You will no longer have to live a hard life. In the future, you can follow Chu Qingyun back to the capital, enjoy the glory and wealth, and truly become a wealthy family.
