Chapter 325 Sweetheart

Early in the morning, the theft in the City Lord's Mansion was exposed.

The soldiers of the City Lord's Mansion searched house to house but did not find any suspects. However, they heard that a wealthy couple had come to the city. However, even though the soldiers turned the city upside down, they could not find any trace of the couple.

Things suddenly came to a standstill.

Perhaps because the City Lord's Mansion was robbed, the theft of grain from the grain store was not made public.

Or maybe the shopkeeper found a way to replenish the food supply in private.

Pan Yingying didn't care about this, she cared about Hua Furong's "martial arts competition to win a husband".

The post had already been sent out a long time ago, and it was heard that many nobles from the capital would come to watch the fun. Even if Hua Wentian wanted to vomit blood, he still had to organize this grand event with great enthusiasm.

However, various valuable ornaments in the warehouse were stolen, so he had to go to Hua Furong's yard.

To be honest, he both loved and feared his daughter.

This is the only daughter left by the madam. She is very talented and has become famous in Xia Country at a young age. She has a great future.

But because she is so outstanding, as a father, I always feel inexplicably short of breath in front of her.

Chanjuan Garden.

A woman in a light pink gauze was kneeling in the pavilion and sipping tea. Incense was burning in the incense burner next to her. As soon as Hua Wentian entered the yard, he felt like he was surrounded by flowers.

Two rows of maids stood outside the pavilion with a veil on. Each of them was so beautiful that she could shame the moon and the flowers. However, they could not compare to the beauty of the hibiscus in the pavilion.

"Furong." Hua Wentian spoke softly, with a barely perceptible hint of awkwardness in his voice.

Hua Furong smiled slightly, as bright as a spring flower, "Father."

Hua Wentian let out an "ah" and quickly walked into the pavilion while the beautiful maid bowed.

"Father, have you found any clues about the theft in the warehouse?" Hua Furong personally poured a cup of tea for Hua Wentian.

Hua Wentian shook his head, "Not yet, this is what worries me." After a pause, he muttered in a low voice, "The day of the martial arts competition to select a bride is coming soon, and the mansion can't even produce a decent decoration..."

Hua Furong's eyebrows moved slightly, she knew that if this father didn't have something to ask of her, he would never come to Chanjuan Garden.

"Father, why don't you take out mother's dowry to decorate the house first, and then we can talk about it after I find a husband." Her eyes were light in color, and she looked particularly serious when looking at people.

Hua Wentian pretended to hesitate, "This... this is the dowry your mother left for you after all..."

He kept an eye on Hua Furong's expression, and when he found that she didn't change at all, he coughed and said, "Well, after the competition, I will return it immediately and give you another thousand taels of gold."

Hua Furong nodded and called her maid to get the dowry list and warehouse key left by her mother.

"By the way, father, is Prince Xiaoyao sure he will come to participate in the martial arts competition to win a bride?" Thinking of her sweetheart, Hua Furong couldn't help but blush.

The worry on Hua Wentian's face also disappeared, and his tone became more cheerful, "It's confirmed, it's confirmed. I heard that it will arrive in three days at most. Don't worry, your father will definitely let you marry your sweetheart."

He had always planned to marry a live-in son-in-law, but last year Yue Niang gave birth to a big fat boy for him, so he changed his mind.

However, he had always kept this matter hidden very well and dared not let Hua Furong know about it.

Otherwise, how could the mother and son survive?
Hua Furong did not miss the relief in Hua Wentian's eyes. The curve of her lips remained unchanged, but sarcasm gradually emerged.

"Okay, then I'll wait for good news from my father."

……

……

Yunkelai, second floor.

Pan Yingying and Yu Chaosheng sat by the window and played Go in a casual manner.

Yu Chaosheng couldn't help but complain, "When will they be released?" Pan Yingying glanced at him slowly, "Why rush? They will be released when the time comes."

Yu Chaosheng threw the black piece in his hand into the jar, and suddenly became furious, "Why am I so anxious?"

There are so many strange corpses in there that he doesn't even dare to enter the space. He has to eat, drink, defecate and urinate outside, and he can't even take a bath or wash his hair comfortably.

“I’m going to stink!”

Pan Yingying shook her head, "I don't know what you're anxious about, and I don't dislike you."

Yu Chaosheng was about to jump up and down, "How dare you despise me?"

It's just that he dislikes himself, okay?

Seeing that he was about to start making trouble again, Pan Yingying quickly raised her hand to stop him, "Of course I wouldn't dare, calm down."

"I put the big jars containing the corpses in the corner. I promise they won't affect your bathing and washing your hair."

"Come in and take a look. I won't lie to you."

Damn it, I've never seen this brat be so obsessed with mysophobia before. He starts to be so conceited for no reason. Is there someone he loves nearby or something?
Yu Chaosheng crossed his arms, looking unconvinced, "Really?"

Pan Yingying answered straightforwardly and firmly, "It's more real than real gold!"

Yu Chaosheng looked at her suspiciously and said, "Then I'll go in and take a look."

Pan Yingying: "Go ahead, go ahead. I'll wait for you."

Yu Chaosheng's figure flashed and he disappeared on the spot.

Ten seconds later, he jumped out of the space with a dark face, raised his hand to pinch Pan Yingying's waist, "Pan Yingying!"

Pan Yingying laughed out loud. This kid was still as easy to fool as ever.

The two of them were fighting each other, and Long Qi, who was lying on the roof, was picking his ears.

Alas, His Majesty and the Emperor have such a good relationship that even this old bachelor wants to find a partner.

But when he thought about having to hand over his monthly wages and raising children, he quickly shook his head.

In the past, just raising the two sisters Honglian and Lumei made him extremely poor. If he gave birth to another one that was particularly greedy, his meager family fortune would be wiped out!
Forget it, forget it, he is living a good life. Anyway, the two sisters have said that they will take care of him in his old age and see him to the end of his life, so he shouldn't worry about it.

Lumei and Luyi, who lived next door to the couple, were also discussing this matter.

"Sister Lumei, do you have a lover?" Lu Yi held the medical book and took the time to raise his head to ask.

Lumei was reading a food novel with a plate of dried fruits beside her, looking very leisurely.

Hearing her question, his pupils widened in shock, "What did you say? What sweetheart?"

Lu Mei scratched her back, took a piece of dried fruit from the plate and put it in her mouth, chewing it while saying, "It means exactly what it says. It means do you have someone you like?"

Lu Mei groaned, "What do you mean by sweetheart or not? He is neither worth eating nor drinking. If I'm unlucky and meet a gigolo, I'll have to support him. It's not worth it."

Instead of spending the money on supporting a gigolo, it’s safer to eat it all.

Green One: ...

She shouldn't have discussed this issue with Lumei!
You know, this guy has nothing else to pursue except eating and drinking. It seems that those brats are going to be heartbroken!

But since she had received so much money for finding out about the situation, she still had to ask, "What kind of person does Sister Lumei like?"

Lumei thought about it seriously for a while, and answered with a lack of confidence, "Can...can you withstand a beating?"

Green One: ...

There was no need for her to ask!
Who among those guys could withstand a punch from Lu Mei? Who?
