After the cannon fodder father and daughter married into the family, the whole family regretted it

Chapter 674 Meeting

The prince was not at all arrogant, so Qian Fengping was not so nervous for a moment.

After a few words, under Qingyan's guidance, the two began to chat about family matters.

"You don't know, Mushan Village has changed a lot in recent years. The village is trying to grow wheat..."

As soon as she mentioned Mushan Village, she forgot everything else and quickly talked about her own family. "And Zhizhi and her father. Our family has changed a lot now... We bought a house and land..."

As she spoke, she suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

The person in front of me is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. My family property is probably not even a fraction of what he has.

Fang Yin tried to interrupt several times, but Qian Fengping glared at him and he became quiet.

"Anyway, thanks for helping me out a few times."

If you think about it carefully, the prince's ability to meet the old doctor Zhou, his second brother's apprenticeship to the Meng family, his family's achievement of making achievements with high wheat yields, and Tongzi's official position all seem to have been influenced by the prince.

So she did not agree with Fang Tong and his son interfering with their daughter's friendships. Her daughter was smart and knew what was going on. The prince was also a good boy.

"Aunt Qian, you don't have to be polite to me."

Qingyan listened to her talk, and was as well-behaved as a neighbor's child from beginning to end.

Of course he knew these things, after all, he had been paying attention to them, but when he heard Aunt Qian say it, it was different, as if the place they were sitting in was not the general's mansion, but they were back in the small courtyard of Mushan Village.

As they were talking, the three of them faintly heard the sound of humming a song and all looked outside.

"It's Shizhi who's back."

Qian Fengping was smiling, but Fang Yin on the side was more worried. He was thinking, why not go and intercept the person first so that he could be mentally prepared?

But it was too late. Fang Nanzhi had already walked in briskly. Just as he was about to greet his family, he saw the person who didn't fit in here.

Her eyes suddenly brightened, but the surprise just came out, and she forced it down, looking angry!

Her face turned serious as she walked up to Qing Yan and saluted politely: "This humble lady greets His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Her tone was very polite. Qing Yan paused and said, "No need to be so polite. It's been a long time since we last met. I heard that your medical skills have become more advanced now."

Fang Nanzhi was praised, but she didn't smile at all: "Thank you for the compliment, Your Highness. I'm not that promising, I'm nowhere near as good as you."

She spoke in a sarcastic tone, and Fang Yin beside her grimaced and scratched his ears.

Qian Fengping was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and didn't dare to say anything.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince cannot be provoked, and the same goes for her daughter!

How could Qing Yan not hear it? She almost rolled her eyes at him. He wanted to explain, but was interrupted by Fang Nanzhi as soon as he opened his mouth.

"It's alright, it's alright, Your Highness, don't worry about it. You made a few insignificant friends in the mountains while on an incognito tour, so it's normal for you to forget about them. You're very busy, and I understand."

Her tone became increasingly exaggerated, and it was obvious that ordinary apologies and explanations were no longer effective.

Qing Yan sighed in his heart.

Fortunately, he knew her well enough to prepare a trump card in advance.

He turned around, and the palace servant who followed him noticed his gaze, walked forward with the box in his hand, and opened it in front of Fang Nanzhi.

When the lid was opened, even Qian Fengping and Fang Yin who were standing by were dazzled. Inside was actually a set of jeweled head ornaments!

The two looked at each other and thought, could it be what they thought?!

"This is for you. I thought you would like it."

Fang Nanzhi's eyebrows jumped, but she said stubbornly, "I'm so sorry. I don't accept gifts without merit. How can I be worthy of such a generous gift from Your Highness?"

Not to mention Qingyan, even Fang Yin didn't believe it: Zhizhi couldn't take her eyes off it!

It’s really no wonder that she is so ignorant. This jeweled headpiece is extraordinary and you can’t get it just by having silver. It’s so lovely.

This headpiece is mainly made of red agate surrounded by white jade. Not only that, it is also embellished with pearls, hundreds of them in large and small sizes. The crown, white jade hairpins, and pearl hairpins, three kinds of gems with a strong presence, are perfectly integrated into a headpiece by the ingenious craftsmen. It does not feel messy at all, but luxurious.

"How can it be in vain? You have helped me a lot."

"Besides, it's not because of this. I just prepared it specially to give to you."

Qing Yan whispered and showed weakness again and again, and Fang Nanzhi could no longer hold it.

I was mainly moved by his sincerity, not by the jeweled headpiece.

"Well then," she raised her chin slightly, "since you're so thoughtful, I'll reluctantly accept it."

Qing Yan then smiled: "Not angry anymore?"

Fang Nanzhi snorted, took the box and hugged it tightly: "I'm not angry, I'm a generous person, especially to my friends. Good friends should understand each other!"

As she spoke, she didn't even look at Qing Yan. She closed the box reluctantly, as if she hadn't admired it enough.

"I believe you must have something to hide. I've already told you, I understand!"

Qing Yan nodded: "I know, if it were someone else, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to forgive it, but you are so magnanimous."

Qian Fengping couldn't help laughing out loud.

These two children were nothing like her intelligent daughter and the noble Crown Prince. They acted in unison and didn't seem to be quarreling. Instead, they looked even more childish than before!

I'm not angry. If I'm not angry, then don't accept the jewels and head ornaments. This girl accepted such a big gift!

Fang Yin looked at it and couldn't laugh anymore - how could this be possible? All the provocations from the past two days have become useless so soon?

He stood behind Qing Yan and winked at Fang Nanzhi, hinting that she couldn't forgive him so easily. Fight him! Fight him!

Seeing Fang Nanzhi holding the box without any reaction, he could no longer bear it and coughed twice: "Ahem, Zhizhi, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a foreigner, you go and rest, I will entertain you."

Fang Nanzhi looked at him in confusion: "Second uncle, why have you become so pedantic?"

Qing Yan turned around and looked at him innocently: It was a rare opportunity for him to meet with his good friend and reminisce about the past, so why was he labeled as a stranger?

The headwear I just received is no longer counted? Is it so worthless?

Two pairs of eyes were looking at him. Fang Yin was speechless for a long time, his face almost red, but in the end he couldn't utter another word.

gone!

Qian Fengping smiled and shook her head: "You guys chat, I'll go get some food."

"Mom, I want to eat mung bean cake!"

Qian Fengping agreed. She had nothing to worry about. Not only were the doors and windows wide open, but the maids and palace servants were also there. It was a clean place and would not ruin the girl's reputation.

The two sat down, and Fang Nanzhi finally let go. He put the box aside and began to talk about the days when Qingyan was away.

Qing Yan naturally knew about this, but it was not as good as hearing it from her own mouth. Listening to him talk about those family matters, even the way she mentioned people she hated would only make him smile knowingly.

"...What about the two mastiffs I gave you?"

"What about them? I didn't bring them. They've grown too fat. Do you know how big they are? They don't even look like dogs. If they work harder, they'll be as big as wild boars!"

The two people talked about Fang Nanzhi's study abroad and mentioned the county town that believed in mountain gods.

Qing Yan waited until she finished her vivid description before speaking: "You did a good job, but the previous county magistrate of that county was Cao Qianshan. You have to be careful not to provoke him. He probably won't think of the mountain temple."

After Prime Minister Chen was killed, it was Cao Qianshan who took over his position.
