Blushing Face

When Xiaoying saw that it was indeed Yelu Chun, her heart beat faster, and she couldn’t help but clench her hands together.

She hadn’t seen him for a long time. He was even more handsome than the last time she saw him. That tall figure was just like in her dreams. Whenever she dreamed, he would save her and look at her worriedly.

Yelu Chun forcefully withdrew his gaze from Xiaoying and cupped his hands at Su Qing. “Sister-in-law, I congratulate you and Brother Xiao for being late for your wedding. Please don’t take offense!”

“It’S not strange, it’s not strange. It’s just that our marriage was too rushed, and we didn’t inform anyone. Even Xiaoying didn’t attend our wedding.”

Su Qing said to Yelu Chun with a smile.

Hearing Su Qing’s words, Yelu Chun could finally look at Xiaoying openly. His thin lips curled up in a happy angle, and his yellowish-brown eyes only saw Xiaoying’s beautiful figure. He acted sophisticated and elegant, cupped his fists, and smiled at Xiaoying. “Miss Xiaoying, how have you been?”

“Big Brother Yelu.”

Xiaoying looked at him shyly. Her smile was filled with bashfulness as she called out softly. She was too embarrassed to look into Yelu Chun’s affectionate eyes again.

“Aunt Li, this is the Third Prince of Tartan. I invited him to your house for a

meal.”

Xiao Zeyu went to greet Aunt Li.

“Aiya, don’t you think my house is a mess?”

Aunt Li was so nervous that she didn’t know what to do. When she heard that he was the prince, her legs went weak. The highest official she had ever seen in her life was the Zhizhou. This was the first time she had seen someone from the royal family. She feared being penalized if she didn’t entertain them well.

“No, the Third Prince is very easy-going. Aunt Li, don’t be nervous.

Xiao Zeyu smiled and shook his head, telling Aunt Li not to be nervous.

But it was useless even if he said otherwise. Aunt Li was still so scared that her hands and feet were cold. She didn’t dare to go over and greet the Third Prince, so she slipped behind Xiao Zeyu to hide.

Li Daniu was the calmer one. After hearing Xiao Zeyu’s introduction, he immediately went over to greet the Third Prince,

“Welcome to my house, Third Prince. It is my honor to bring light to my

humble house.”

After all, he was Xiao Zeyu’s brother, so he was braver than the average person.

He was neither servile nor overbearing, and he had a lot of integrity.

“Sorry to disturb you.”

The Third Prince smiled amiably. Although he had deliberately appeared friendly, his royal aura still gave people a sense of oppression.

The villagers visiting the Li family’s grave were both afraid and curious when they saw the prince. They could not help but stare at Yelu Chun. The men of Tartan were handsome. ‘What were they wearing? Why were there fox tails on both sides of the hat?’

Because the Third Prince was eating at the Li family’s house, Su Qing ordered someone to get two more live fish.

If they wanted to eat fish in winter, they had to dig a hole in the ice and cast a net This was physical work. Other than Su Qing, no man in Mo City was stronger than Zhong Yong. He volunteered to go, but Su Qing was worried he would still be sad, so she sent Jiang Yuyan to help.

It was also to give them a space to be alone. Working together would not be tiring for a man and a woman. Perhaps it would improve their relationship and allow Zhong Yong to have his first awakening of love and understand the relationship between men and women.

When Jiang Yuyan heard that Su Qing wanted her to fish with Zhong Yong, her face turned red, and her eyes lit up with joy. She couldn’t help but smile.

“Third Prince, please come in.”

Xiao Zeyu couldn’t let Yelvchun stand in the snow for too long, so he smiled and walked into the house to let him in. Ultimately, he realized that this kid was staring at his sister, his eyes unblinking as he stared at Xiaoying. He couldn’t take his eyes off her. Xiao Zeyu coughed hard, and Yelu Chun was stunned. He quickly smiled and said,

“Alright, Brother Xiao, please.”

Xiao Zeyu glared at him. ‘Stinky brat, don’t you dare have any ideas about my sister.’

Yelu Chun smiled calmly at him, lifted his battle robe, and walked into Aunt

Li’s courtyard.

“I’ll go and cook.”

Su Qing said to Xiao Zeyu before turning to Xiaoying. “Are you going to cook with Sister-in-law or go into the house and give them tea?”

This was also Su Qing’s way of testing Xiaoying’s feelings for Yelu Chun, allowing her to choose for herself.

Xiaoying hesitated momentarily and couldn’t help but raise her head to look at Yelu Chun’s imposing figure. It wasn’t easy to see him, so spending more time with him would be good.

Xiaoying mustered up her courage and said to her sister-in-law, “I’m going to make tea for Big Brother and the others.”

“Alright, go!”

Su Qing looked deeply at Xiaoying. Her feelings for Yelu Chun were more profound than she thought. She hoped that Xiaoying would not be sad. Xiaoying’s face turned even redder after getting her sister-in-law’s approval. She lowered her head, not daring to look at Su Qing’s scrutinizing gaze, and ran into the house with quick steps.

Su Qing sighed. Feelings were uncontrollable. She hoped that Yelu Chun would not let down Xiaoying’s deep feelings and not just look at her face. She hoped that he could love her for a longer time.

Xiao Zeyu let Yelu Chun into the house. Aunt Li’s family had treated him to a meal today, and the stove was burning red. As soon as he entered the house, he could feel the hot air blowing against his face.

Aunt Li’s house did not have any good tea leaves. Xiaoying asked Li Shuang’er to go to the government office to ask Xing Ruhai for good tea. She was boiling water in the outer room and could hear the conversation in the inner room.

“Third Prince, take off your battle robe. It’s tiring to wear armor.

After entering the house, Xiao Zeyu had Yelu Chun remove his armor and only wore the green cotton robe. The cotton robe was embroidered with pythons, and it was very imposing. The Third Prince, wearing the armor, had a heroic spirit. With his python robe, he cut a noble figure. His every move exuded the aura of a royal family.

Ultimately, Xiao Zeyu asked him to remove his boots and sit cross-legged on the brick bed. This made him less noble and more approachable.

Because of the Third Prince’s noble status, only Xiao Zeyu and him were sitting on the kang. They sat opposite each other, with a small kang table in the middle. The Third Prince felt like his butt was on fire and couldn’t help but lower his head to look.

“Is it too hot? Put on a mattress.”

As the host, Big Father Li was taking care of him from the side. He knew he had been scalded when he saw the Third Prince looking down at the brick bed. He hurriedly took out a new mattress and laid it for him.

“It’s quite hot here!”

The Third Prince felt better when he sat on the mattress. They also had a brick bed but had never burned it so hot. They would burn a handful of cow dung at night, which would be cold before dawn. Were the people of Mo City so rich? How much cow dung was needed to make the brick bed so hot?

“It’s connected to the stove outside the house. The stove outside is hot, so the kang inside is hot.”

Xiao Zeyu explained to the Third Prince. It was resistant to heat, and the firewall was even hotter. A fire could not only cook but also warm the house. This was also the wisdom of the Central Plainsmen.

“Not bad. I will promote it when I get back so that the people of Tartan will not suffer from the cold.”

The Third Prince was a qualified heir to the royal family. He cared about the people and always wanted to let the people of Tartan live a good life. Xiao Zeyu admired him for this. If he could conquer the dynasty in the future, he would keep the people in his heart.

The two of them were talking in the room. Xiaoying was absent-minded while boiling the water. When Li Shuang’er returned with the tea leaves, she was still listening. She didn’t even know that the water on the stove was boiling. “Xiaoying, what are you doing? Why didn’t you take it down when the water was boiling?”

Li Shuang’er anxiously called out to Xiaoying. When Yelu Chun heard this, he couldn’t help but look outside..
