Rebirth of the Return of Chu

Mu Chu asked him again: "Your Highness said that he told my uncle to let me take you out for a walk, is that true?"

Li Wenyu was stunned: "Of course, otherwise why would your uncle let you come out with me alone?"

As he spoke, he raised his chin towards the restaurant outside the door and said, "Aren't there people sent by your uncle following you?"

Mu Chu looked and saw that there were indeed a few people there observing this place.

After hearing this, Mu Chu felt that everything was explained, including why his uncle was not at all surprised when he said he wanted to accompany the eldest prince shopping.

However, it is true that my uncle has always sent secret guards to follow me. That means my uncle knew about these things a long time ago, or he acquiesced to them. Somehow, when I think of this, I feel a little aggrieved. He is so confident in letting me go out with other men.

Li Wenyu interrupted her thoughts: "Don't think about what happened just now, pick out what you want."

The shopkeeper was very discerning and immediately began to introduce his merchandise as if he were presenting a treasure.

Mu Chu was also led by him to start watching. Li Wenyu and Mu Chu stood beside him in silence. Xiao Tao didn't dare to speak loudly either. The atmosphere was a bit weird.

Everyone in the store was quietly choosing things for themselves. Mu Chu took a look at some of the things recommended by the shopkeeper, then put them down. It was not that he didn't want them, but he just seemed to have never been interested in these gold and silver jewelry.

Mu Chu was a person who didn't like to dress up in her past and present life. When she turned around and saw two bracelets, they were exactly the same and quite unique. Even if a man wore them, it wouldn't look out of place. Suddenly, she thought it would be nice to wear a couple's bracelet.

When the shopkeeper saw that she looked at it for a few more seconds, he picked it up to demonstrate that the bracelet had a secret. When it was opened from the side link, there was an extremely thin needle inside.

When Mu Chu saw this little mechanism, he liked it very much. He thought that it could be used to soak some poison and could save lives when necessary.

Mu Chu's first thought was to give it to his uncle, but he didn't know whether he would wear it, so he hesitated for a long time, taking it out and looking at it again and again.

Finally, I said to the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, I want it. How much is it?"

The shopkeeper said, "Thirty taels of silver a piece."

Mu Chu said: "Pack those two for me."

Xiao Tao went over and tugged at Mu Chu's sleeve, looking embarrassed: "Miss, I don't have enough silver to bring with me."

Mu Chu said to the shopkeeper again: "Shopkeeper, can you keep this for me first?"

Then he took off his jade pendant and handed it to the shopkeeper: "I'll leave it here as a deposit. I'll send someone to get the money tomorrow, okay? I'm from General Qin's mansion. I like this bracelet very much, but I don't have enough money today."

The shopkeeper turned his head with an embarrassed look at Li Wenyu, and after getting a look, his attitude suddenly changed: "Ms. Qin, it's like this, I just remembered that this bracelet is hard to sell because one of it has a defect, so if you want it, I'll give you the other one."

After hearing this, Mu Chu was very excited and expressed his gratitude to the shopkeeper. His eyes turned into crescent shapes when he smiled, and shallow dimples were imprinted on his face. Li Wenyu couldn't help but stare at him in a daze.

After Xiaotao took out the money and gave it to the shopkeeper, several people came out.

Li Wenyu asked Mu Chu: "Do you like this?"

Mu Chu nodded: "I like it."

Li Wenyu said: "I'm glad you like it. It's getting late. I'll take you home."

They got on the carriage together, and Li Wenyu sent Mu Chu to the gate of the general's mansion. Mu Chu thanked him and went back quickly.

Mu Chu and Xiao Tao returned to the yard, changed their clothes, played with Taxue who was catching fish by the pond for a while, then picked up the bracelets and walked towards Qin Yuanyi's yard.

When he saw Wang Xing at the door, he asked, "Is my uncle here?"

Wang Xing said: "Yes, Master, he is always here."

Mu Chu walked inside, shouting as he walked: "Uncle, come out quickly, I have something strange to show you."

Qin Yuanyi heard Mu Chu's voice and walked out to greet her: "Chu'er, why are you so flustered?"

Mu Chu took out two bracelets like magic: "Uncle, look, I bought these on the street today. I'll give you one and I'll wear one. How do you think they look good?"

Qin Yuanyi looked at the silly child. She probably didn't know that giving these things to girls was a token of love.

But he didn't want to remind her. He listened to Mu Chu chattering about how he got it from the boss, and then excitedly unscrewed it to demonstrate to him. There was actually a thin needle hidden inside. Mu Chu said that he had dipped the needle in poison. If he met a bad guy in the future, he would unscrew it and stab the other person hard.

Qin Yuanyi was a little surprised. He didn't expect her to think of this idea, so he reached out and said, "Put it on me. It's a very interesting thing."

Mu Chu took his hand and put it on him. For some reason, he felt like drinking honey in his heart and thought he would refuse.
