Mo Zhaohua said confidently: "No, Zhaozhao believes that grandpa and his family will be very happy. We can discuss the details with them."

Chu Xuanchi was filled with emotion, "With Zhao Zhao, everything is different. Not only do I have my own home, but I also have so many relatives."

Mo Zhaohua smiled and said, "It's the same for me. I have left the Shangshu Mansion and have my own home. I can visit my grandfather without any worries."

Chu Xuanchi frowned slightly, "Mo Yun doesn't like Zhao Zhao to hang out with the Duke of Fuguo too much?"

Mo Zhaohua nodded, "Well... Father is most concerned about people saying that he got to where he is today because he married my mother and got help from the Fuguogong Mansion."

"Isn't this the truth?" Chu Xuanchi mocked, "Although he passed the imperial examination, he didn't have the Fuguogong Mansion. How could he be promoted so quickly?"

Mo Zhaohua sighed, "It is precisely because it is the truth that my father is so angry and embarrassed. I guess my father's ruthlessness towards my mother should have something to do with this."

It wasn't snowing heavily when they went out, but it was getting heavier now. Chu Xuanchi's big flag had no hood, and Mo Zhaohua's cloak had a hood but he didn't wear it.

Amber carefully brought an umbrella with her. Seeing the two masters' heads covered with snow, she asked, "My Lord, Princess, it's snowing heavily. Do you want an umbrella?"

Chu Xuanchi looked up at the top of Mo Zhaohua's head and pursed his lips, "Not for now, it's just right now, we can truly grow old together."

Mo Zhaohua also looked at him, and suddenly thought of their first meeting in childhood, "Husband, do you still remember our first meeting?"

Chu Xuanchi still remembers it clearly, "How could I forget this? At that time, I was being bullied under the pear tree, and Zhao Zhao was not afraid of them at all and protected me behind him."

"This is what it means to be a newborn calf that is not afraid of a tiger. I was too young at that time and didn't know them, so I didn't know the difference in status." If it were now, Mo Zhaohua would be cautious.

Chu Xuanchi continued, "Later, they deliberately asked the palace maids to shake the tree, and your head was covered with white pear blossoms, just like your head is covered with white snow now."

Mo Zhaohua squatted down and held his hand, "My husband is the same, so from the moment we first met, we were destined to grow old together."

Chu Xuanchi held her hand in return, "It is fate that determines our relationship. I will hold your hand and grow old with you."

Huaying and Amber watched and listened from the side, feeling both envious and gratified. Their masters were good, and so were their talents as subordinates and servants.

Chu Xuanchi and Mo Zhaohua stayed in the plum garden for a long time and picked many plum blossoms. Most of them were picked by Mo Zhaohua after Chu Xuanchi liked them.

This was originally the servants' job, but Mo Zhaohua wanted to do it himself, so Huaying and Amber could only watch from the side, since the plum tree was not very tall.

After a long time, Mu Xueyan came over holding a bunch of plum blossoms, "Wow...you picked so many. Xue'er has some too. These were all picked by Brother Yan."

She is still young and innocent, her smile is more delicate than a flower, and the love in her eyes makes her even more beautiful.

"I am just the opposite. This is all the princess' fault." Chu Xuanchi sighed, "It seems that the princess has been wronged again."

He still hasn't let go of his suspicion of Xiao Yan, and would deliberately show weakness in front of Xiao Yan in order to lower the other party's guard.

Mu Xueyan comforted him, "Brother Yu Wang, don't worry too much. Xue'er believes that your leg will get better. You will be able to pick plum blossoms for your sister-in-law when the plum blossoms bloom next year."

The more Mo Zhaohua looked at her, the more he liked her. The call of "sister-in-law" touched her heart and sounded much more pleasant than that of other people's sisters-in-law.

Chu Xuanchi was also pleased to hear this and asked with concern, "How was the flower viewing? Are you cold?"

Mu Xueyan smiled and said, "The reward is very good. I'm not cold. This cloak is very warm. I heard that my sister-in-law had someone make it specially for Xue'er."

Mo Zhaohua gently took over the conversation, "Does Miss Mu like it?"

"I like it. It's beautiful and warm. Thank you, sister-in-law." Mu Xueyan said as she turned around.

"You're welcome. I'm glad you like it." Mo Zhaohua couldn't understand why she had changed so much. Had she really grown up?

"Brother Yu Wang and Brother Yan's injuries have not yet healed. They should not be exposed to the wind for too long. Be careful not to catch a cold. It's almost time for you to go back."

Mu Xueyan's voice is even gentler than before, and she is so considerate. Judging from the way she addresses Xiao Yan, their relationship has taken a step further.

Chu Xuanchi originally wanted to find them so that they could go back and have lunch together. "Then go back, take a rest and warm up your body, then you can have lunch."

The group then went to the front yard, where the host and guests rested in the warm room to warm themselves up. The plum blossoms they picked were delivered to their respective courtyards by servants.

After the few of them sat down in the warm room, Chu Xuanchi spoke calmly, "I heard that Master Xiao has been teaching Xue'er martial arts recently, and Xue'er is extremely diligent."

Xiao Yan's attitude remained respectful. "My injuries have healed. I have nothing to do, so I did teach Xue Yan how to practice swordsmanship. She has a high level of comprehension, learns quickly, and is also very hardworking."

Not only did Mu Xueyan change her way of addressing him, he also changed his way of addressing Mu Xueyan and called her by her name. It was obvious that their relationship was no longer the same as before.

Chu Xuanchi took the opportunity to say, "I originally wanted to invite Master Xiao to be my teacher and stay in the mansion to teach Xue'er kung fu, but Master was injured and it was inconvenient for him to ask."

Mu Xueyan replied anxiously, "It's possible now. Brother Yan taught me very well. Xue'er didn't like practicing before, but now she has a great interest in it."

Chu Xuanchi and Mo Zhaohua both knew whether she was interested in practicing martial arts or the person who taught her loved her because of him.

Chu Xuanchi smiled and asked Xiao Yan, "What do you think, Master Xiao?"

Xiao Yan readily agreed, "If Your Majesty does not mind my shallow skills, I would be honored to be Xueyan's teacher. I would be honored to accept the offer."

Chu Xuanchi made a prompt decision, "Then it's settled. We can discuss the remuneration slowly after dinner. I will not let you down."

Xiao Yan said politely: "Your Highness, you are joking. Your Highness has allowed me to stay for such a long time, so why do I need any reward?"

How could Chu Xuanchi take advantage of him? "Since I have been hired as your teacher, I must be paid. Otherwise, how will others view me?"

Mu Xueyan chimed in, "Brother Yan, you're welcome. This is because you were injured while saving Xue'er and Brother Yu Wang, so the reward for being a teacher should be yours."

Mo Zhaohua also added, "Yes, let's put it this way, Mr. Xiao, please don't refuse anymore."

Xiao Yan did not refuse, "Since you are so kind, I will respectfully obey your orders."

Chu Xuanchi successfully kept Xiao Yan here, and soon they went to the dining hall together. After the meal, they discussed the remuneration for Mu Xueyan as a teacher.

The Prince Yu's Palace provided Xiao Yan with accommodation and meals, and gave him money as a reward. Chu Xuanchi checked Mu Xueyan's kung fu every half a month.

After the deal was settled, Xiao Yan went straight back to his residence, while Chu Xuanchi and the other two went back to the backyard.

After Mu Xueyan went to Fangfei Garden, Mo Zhaohua looked at her back and whispered, "Why has Miss Mu changed so much?"
