Chapter 168 A Riding Red Concubine Laughs

"Miss Wei, why are you still standing? Sit down."

Chu Yu wore an ink-colored straight jacket embroidered with gold thread, and a brocade belt with a wide edge of ink-colored silver embroidered auspicious clouds tied around his waist. The clothes were wrapped snugly around his body.

As he walked, the white jade pendant hanging around his waist swayed slightly, exuding a noble and noble aura.

Wei Jiayi's eyes fell on the hands holding the teacup again. He was not wearing a robe, wrapped in narrow cuffs, his white wrists, and his hands were white and long.

It seemed like she had never even touched this person's hand.

"By the way, my eldest sister has been pregnant recently and she likes to eat these lychees. Your Highness the Prince traveled thousands of miles and sent someone to get some. Our Wei Mansion also got some. I will bring them today for King Yu to have a taste."

Chu Yu looked over and saw that the bamboo basket was covered with a layer of lychee leaves, and on top was a layer of fresh and plump lychees.

Lychees are very common in the south during this season.

When he and Ruan Ningxiang lived in the small fishing village of Nanhai City, they shot down a lot of lychees with stones.

That wild girl, like a greedy little cat, grabbed a pot and ate it all.

Nowadays, in northern Xinjiang, only the jujube tree in the courtyard is left, and it can still bear a few fruits.

Wei Jiayi didn't know what he was thinking, she just saw him staring at Litchi, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, then slowly lowered.

Finally, he said politely, "Miss Wei is interested."

But he didn't touch any of them. Instead, he picked up the tea and slowly moved the tea leaves floating in the cup.

Maybe I just don't like eating it.

"It's the Dragon Boat Festival in a few days. I made a sachet with my own hands..." Wei Jiayi shaved the purse in her hand, only to find that it was wrinkled by her pinching. She stroked the satin on it again, "The fragrance inside is also mine.

I mixed it myself, I don’t know if the prince likes it or not.”

Chu Yu took it and sniffed it, then handed it to the maid at the side, "Put it away first."

The smile on Wei Jiayi's face froze on her lips.

Doesn't he like it?

Still don’t like what she sent?

Wei Jiayi sat down with some disappointment.

The two of them were silent and said nothing. For a moment, the air seemed to be frozen.

Wei Jiayi couldn't see through him and said she didn't like her, but she was always polite every time.

If you like him a little bit, he is polite but also a little distant, like a person who is heartless and has no desires.

But the way he looked at the palace maid just now was obviously filled with tenderness.

Wei Jiayi pursed her lips and hesitated for a moment. When she was about to speak again, Chu Yu spoke first, "Is there anything else, Miss Wei? If not, I have something to do, so I won't stay with you."

Already."

The man's eyes fell on him from time to time. Chu Yu was patient. After enduring it for so long, he reached his limit. He turned around and went to the study.

There was a boy to see the guests off, so Wei Jiayi had no choice but to leave with the girl.

Walking to the door, he suddenly touched his sleeve and said, "My veil seems to have fallen off."

Wei Jiayi searched for the handkerchief all the way again and turned back.

I saw two palace maids holding the lychees she brought before eating them.

Wei Jiayi came up and slapped the palace maid resoundingly, "Bold, this is for King Yu, who asked you to eat it secretly?"

"Yes, His Highness King Yu said he didn't like to eat it, so he gave it to us." The maid explained, covering her burning face.

Another palace maid was so frightened that she threw away the half-wrapped lychees.

King Yu?

If you don't like it, why don't you give it to these two humble maids?

Is it easy for her to secretly get some from the house? She wasn't even willing to eat it, but it ended up falling into the mouths of two despicable maids.

A heart that pleases seems to have been trampled on.

Wei Jiayi was so angry that she gritted her teeth and said, "Since King Yu doesn't like it, Yun'er, please bring the lychee back to my house for me."

Yun'er who was beside Wei Jiayi walked over and looked at the almost empty bamboo basket, "Miss..."

Wei Jiayi said angrily: "What are you still doing?"

Yun'er said with some embarrassment: "It's not Miss, there are only three left."

"Take these three with you too!"

After leaving the palace gate, Wei Jiayi took the bamboo basket and threw it towards the stray dog ​​beside her.

Ai Cao stretched out his head and said, "Master, aren't you afraid that the third young lady of the Wei family will hold a grudge?"

Chu Yu, who had been watching the excitement from a distance, curled his lips evilly, "The more you hold grudges, the better."

Wormwood did not overly speculate on the master's thoughts.

Chu Yu gave him another extremely difficult task, asking him to send people to the lychee tree in the yard of the small fishing village in Nanhai, chop down a branch with more fruit that sells well, and send it to Northern Xinjiang.

Wormwood was a bit embarrassed, "But, Master, what if we send someone over and the lychees on that tree are gone?"

Chu Yu only remembered that Axiang liked to eat the lychees from that tree, but he really ignored this point, "Then find a branch with sweet fruit that looks good and send it over."

Chu Yu wrote a letter to Ruan Ningxiang while the two palace maids were eating lychees, and also asked Ai Cao to send someone to carefully escort them along with the lychees.

From the capital to Nanhai City, and then from Nanhai City to Northern Xinjiang, in one roundabout, it almost circled most of the Chu realm.

It was almost July when it was sent to Northern Xinjiang.

It was delivered to Xiuer's small courtyard. When Xiuer saw it, she was shocked for a moment.

The leaves on the branches had fallen off, but the lychees hanging on them were still fresh. She wanted to pick one and eat it, but Chu Yu's secret guards gave her a rough meal.

It’s not that I didn’t give them, but that no matter how careful I was along the way, I still lost a lot of lychees, and there were only a few good fruits hanging on the trees.

When we arrived at Chiling City, we walked further into Yanhui City. Without a pass, Chu Yu's secret guards could not enter, so they handed the lychee to A Ke.

For convenience, Ake picked all the lychee fruits. When sending them away, Song Ji secretly grabbed a handful for his wife and children.

Ruan Ningxiang does not live in Yanhui City now.

Since the weather got warm, she moved into Gufang City, the first gate in northern Xinjiang.

In the desert area deep in Gufang City, the conditions are even worse than those in Yanhui City.

When a gust of wind blows, the sky is filled with yellow sand. Everyone has a black cloth hanging around their necks that is ready to cover their faces.

Under the scorching sun, Akko walked through Yanhui City with a delivery sign in hand, and then drove for a long time before arriving at Gufang City.

After entering Ruan Ningxiang's courtyard, she lay down next to the water tank and scooped half a ladle of water from the bottom of the tank to drink. "By the way, the weather is too hot. My uncle also sent a batch of cloth from the capital. He said it was some kind of silk and satin."

Come on, ask the lady to make two sets of clothes to wear."

"Leave it to Su He."

Ruan Ningxiang sat on the edge of the Kang, anxious to open the letter, and just responded casually.

There were a few simple words written in the letter: Back then, in the small courtyard, under the lychee tree, I missed you.

The scene of the past seemed to be right in front of my eyes, but two years had passed in the blink of an eye.

He also remembered that she liked to eat lychees.

At this moment, Ruan Ningxiang was wrapping fresh lychees, with a smile on her face, and a sigh floated in her mind, "The concubine riding in the world of mortals smiled, but no one knew it was lychees."

Doing evil.

However, it is delicious and sweet.

After eating two, Ruan Ningxiang also replied a letter, planning to ask A Ke to take them back.

There was a knock on the door.

Akko glanced outside along the crack of the window and put on a mask in a hurry, "It's General Shen."

Ruan Ningxiang hurriedly stuffed the letter into the envelope and handed it to Ake.

Then he casually pulled out a pillow towel and covered it on the gourd and gourd.

He wiped his hands casually on his clothes and said, "Come in."

Shen Lichuan opened the door curtain and walked in, and saw A Ke, whose face was covered and wearing casual clothes.
