Chapter 242 I Promise This Is the Last Time!

After Mo Li left, Yang Zijin walked behind Shuo Ling with a smile. She wrapped her hands around Shuo Ling's neck, bent down, and put her head on Shuo Ling's shoulders. She tilted her head, smiled sweetly, and said charmingly, "Sorry for keeping you waiting."

Shuo Ling was happy to hear this, but he pretended to be angry, "Really? I just wandered everywhere and sat here for an hour."

"Are you angry?" Looking at Shuo Ling, Yang Zijin asked uneasily.

Shuo Ling turned his head and squinted at her.

She frowned and walked to him. She bent down and said, "I haven't seen Madam Yang for a long time, so I forgot the time."

"Be careful next time." Shuo Ling said with a smile.

She also smiled and stood up. She patted her chest and said, "I promise this is the last time."

"It's getting dark. People will arrive soon. Let's go out to have a look." Shuo Ling smiled and stood up.

He walked to the door.

Yang Zijin nodded and took a few steps to catch up with Shuo Ling. She took his arm and walked outside with him.

Shuo Ling was delighted with Yang Zijin's performance.

In the peach forest in front of the Blossoming Peach

It was late autumn now, and it was cold in the evening. The leaves on the peach trees became yellow, and the wind blew gently.

The people who received the invitation almost all came.

The red lanterns in the peach forest and the red brocade hanging on the peach trees looked so romantic.

Citizens were shocked to see this.

There was delicious food served at the banquet.

People found places to sit down.

Yang Zijin said, "So many people."

The scene at night was completely different from the day!

Yang Zijin let go of Shuo Ling's arm and ran down the steps, staring at the scene.

Shuo Ling also slowly walked down the steps to her, "What do you think?"

"It is such a big scene. Aren't you afraid of being criticized?" Yang Zijin looked at Shuo Ling and said.

Shuo Ling chuckled, "Be criticized? I am always the person who criticizes others."

"That's right!"Yang Zijin agreed.

She then took Shuo Ling's hand, looked at him, and asked with a smile, "Shall we go over there to have a look?"

She directly pulled Shuo Ling over.

She pulled him and ran towards the banquet.

After arriving at the banquet, Yang Zijin let go of Shuo Ling's hand and admired the beautiful scenery in front of them.

Doctor Zhou and Mo Shang were not far from the medicine house now.

Mo Shang said through the window of the carriage, "Doctor Zhou, please stop in the alley. The road is narrow, and the carriage can't get in."

"Well, okay." Doctor Zhou nodded.

He pulled the rein in his hand and stopped the carriage.

After the carriage stopped, Doctor Zhou jumped out of the carriage and said, "Brother, get down."

Mo Shang held the medicine box, opened the curtain, and walked out of the carriage. He jumped out of the carriage, looked at Doctor Zhou, and said, "Thank you."

"You're welcome." Doctor Zhou said with a smile.

Mo Shang nodded and looked up at the sky. He said, "It's getting late. You should go back quickly. Be careful."

"Thank you for your concern." Doctor Zhou said, arching his arms.

Mo Shang waved his hand and walked to the alley.

Doctor Zhou turned his head. He saw the things Yang Zijin had asked him to prepare for Mo Shang beside the carriage. He almost forgot it.

So Doctor Zhou shouted to Mo Shang, "Brother, wait a minute."

Doctor Zhou picked up the package from the carriage and ran to him.

Mo Shang frowned slightly. He stopped and turned his head, "What else?"

"Brother, this is something Her Highness asked me to prepare for you." Doctor Zhou panted and handed the package to Mo Shang.

Mo Shang wondered, "What is it?"

"Just have a look." Doctor Zhou said, putting the package in Mo Shang's arms.

Mo Shang quickly held it with both hands, "This..."

"Brother, it's getting late. I'm going back now." Doctor Zhou gave the package to Mo Shang and walked away quickly.

He walked to the carriage and returned.

Mo Shang watched Doctor Zhou's carriage disappear around the corner. He looked at the package and shrugged. Then he turned around and walked towards the medicine house with the package.

When he walked to the medicine house, Mo Shang took out the key to open the door, and walked in.

It was already dark outside. Mo Shang put the package and medicine box on the table and then fumbled to the candlestick and lit the candle.

Then he walked over to the table and sat down. After a busy afternoon, he began to be hungry.

There was nothing to eat in the house. He had less than ten cents left. He didn't know when his master would come back. He needed to be thrifty.

Thinking of this, he picked up the kettle on the table, turned the kettle to his mouth, and drank all the water.

Then he hiccuped and put down the kettle. He touched his stomach.

Although it was filled with water, it was still uncomfortable.

Mo Shang suddenly smelled the smell of roast chicken in the house.

He patted his head and thought that he must have been hungry for a long time and have hallucinations. No... There might be something wrong with his smell.

But the smell of roast chicken became stronger and stronger. He frowned and pinched his thigh, which hurt.

This showed that there was no problem with his smell, nor was there a hallucination. Thinking of this, he frowned and then suddenly looked at the package Doctor Zhou gave him just now. Could it be...

Thinking of this, he hurriedly opened the package!

Inside were two roast chickens wrapped in butter paper.

Seeing this, he got excited. He remembered that the last time he ate meat was a long time ago, and he almost forgot what the meat tasted like.

He picked up a roast chicken from the package, uncovered the butter paper, then grabbed a chicken leg, and ate it.

After a while, only the skeleton of a roast chicken was left. He wiped his mouth with his sleeve.

When he put his hand on another roast chicken, he suddenly thought that he should eat it tomorrow.

He put the package away and wanted to hang it on the wall.

There were too many rats in the house. It would be eaten by the rats if it was placed on the table. It was safer to hang it on the wall.

At this moment, Mo Shang heard something in the package hitting the table.

He touched the bottom of the parcel and felt something hard. He wondered if these were... Could they be silver?

Thinking of this, he opened the package again and took out the other roast chicken from the package. Then he saw a purse.

He took out the purse and opened it. There was a note in it: medical expenses.

At this time, Mo Shang took out the note. The purse was filled with silver. There were as many as five taels.

He was shocked. It was the first time he saw so much money.

He was a little nervous and looked at the door and the window, seeing that they were all closed. He was relieved.

Where should he put the silver?

He found several places one after another but felt that they were unsuitable. In the end, he decided to put the money on himself.

Then he put the purse into his arms, lay down on the bed, and fell asleep.

The sky was getting darker.

Yang Zijin quietly admired the beauty in front of her. She did not expect that it could be so romantic in ancient times.

At this moment, Yang Zijin saw Pei Moning and Jiang Wei sitting on a peach tree not far away.

Pei Moning was talking about something with Jiang Wei.

Jiang Wei, who rarely smiled, laughed at this moment.

Looking at the scene, Yang Zijin saw love in Pei Moning's eyes!

Yes, yes, it was love. Could it be that Pei Moning fell in love with Jiang Wei?

Yang Zijin was looking at the scene attentively. Shuo Ling walked forward, looking at her with a fond look, and said, "The banquet is about to begin. Let's go."

"Ah... Well, okay." Yang Zijin came back to earth and nodded.

Madam Yang pulled Lin Mei out and sat in a prominent position.

People from the Blossoming Peach and Woman Flower, except for Xian and Baihe, had already found seats and sat down.

With the sound of firecrackers, the banquet began!

Yang Zijin looked at Shuo Ling with a smile, resting her head on his shoulder.

After the sound of the firecrackers ended, Yang Zijin and Shuo Ling walked out.

A sharp-eyed person saw them and said, "Her Highness and His Lordship are here."
