Chapter 207 The bride price

"A birthday gift for you." Si Haochen pinched the tip of Mingruo's nose, poured a cup of tea and put it in front of her.

"Oh." Mingruo couldn't imagine what 'surprise' Si Haochen would prepare for her.

The two of them took a short rest, walked out of the back door and walked up the mountain. Some distance away from the top of the mountain, they saw a high wall made of green bamboo, which served as a boundary. Si Haochen took Ming Ming with him.

If you jump lightly, you can climb over the wall and reach the top of the mountain in no time.

There is also a peach blossom forest on the top of the mountain, which blooms better than the peach blossoms at the bottom of the mountain. The mountain wind blows, the pink petals fall rustlingly, and the clouds and mist on the top of the mountain are so beautiful that it is unreal.

"It's so beautiful here." Mingruo stretched out her hand, and a few petals as soft as silk fell into her palm.

"Let's go see your birthday gift." Si Haochen led Mingruo into the peach grove, where three exquisite wooden houses were nestled among them.

"The birthday gift you are talking about...these houses?" Mingruo walked into the one in the middle.

This is a bedroom, with the living room outside and the bedroom inside. It is fully furnished and furnished, and clothes for all seasons are prepared in the wardrobe. Makeup and jewelry are also prepared in the dressing table.

The one on the right is the kitchen, which contains various kitchen utensils and charcoal. The one on the left is a bit interesting, with small doors and windows, and a fish-shaped copper lock on the door. Si Haochen opened the door with a key

Lock, signaling Ming Ruo to enter.

When Mingruo walked in, he saw that the ancient shelves were filled with brocade boxes of various sizes, as well as dozens of large red-painted wooden boxes with happy words on them. Mingruo opened one at random and found it filled with various gems.

.Opened another one, it was full of Dongzhu.

Mingruo turned around and looked at Si Haochen: "These are for me too?"

"Well, this is my king's betrothal gift." Si Haochen hugged Mingruo from behind, "It's not convenient to carry it on the mountain, so I put these here first. Whatever you want, go back to your hometown and move it to the warehouse."

"Oh~" Mingruo understood in her heart why Si Haochen gave her these three wooden houses, but she deliberately prolonged her tone, "Then I will live in this mountain from now on."

"No." Si Haochen lowered his head and pressed his forehead against Mingruo's. "The house is for you to put into the space and use it. People are not allowed to enter and exit at will in this peach forest, and the craftsmen are not allowed to enter the house after they have built it."

Will come again and won't attract attention.”#@$&

"Yeah." Mingruo put her arms around Si Haochen's narrow waist, "I like this birthday gift very much, but..."

"What?" Si Haochen hugged Mingruo tighter.

"Aren't you afraid that I've stolen your betrothal gift and won't acknowledge it?" Mingruo smiled with crooked eyebrows.

"How dare you!" Si Haochen bit the mouth that said he was disobedient.

"You're doing domestic violence again!" Mingruo took a bite on Si Haochen's chin in retaliation. Don't ask why it was the chin, the short-legged Yousang was so big.%&(&

"Haha." Si Haochen caressed Mingruo's eyebrows, wondering how his princess could be so cute.

"Ahem, let me do a trick for you." With a thought, Mingruo took the three wooden houses into the space and placed them in an open space not far from the well, so that water would be more convenient. With these three wooden houses, the space

The standard of living here has improved a lot.

"The tricks are getting good." Si Haochen led Mingruo and walked deeper into the peach forest.

Deep in the peach grove, there is a particularly large peach tree, the trunk of which can only be hugged by two or three people. Next to the peach tree is a thatched pavilion, which, together with the fairy-like peach grove, makes it feel like a paradise.

Si Haochen picked up Mingruo and used Qinggong to climb up the tree. The two sat side by side on the thick trunk: "The peaches produced by this tree are particularly delicious. You can plant them in the space."

Ming Ruo touched the marks on the tree trunk, and it seemed that people often sit here: "You often sit here, right?"

"Yes." Si Haochen nodded, "I used to practice martial arts on the top of the mountain, and that pavilion was used to shelter from the rain."

"Wow, my bamboo horse is so hardworking." It is really rare for a prince to be able to practice martial arts in the mountains while sleeping and sleeping in the open air.

"In this world, things that can be obtained without suffering often make people suffer more." Si Haochen smiled lightly.

Mingruo chewed this sentence carefully and found that it was extremely correct.

"Go back, it's time to eat." Si Haochen took Mingruo down the tree, then patted the tree trunk proudly, "Take it, I'll give it to you."

"Next time I want to sit here with you and watch the peach blossoms. Just help me break a branch." Digging out such a big tree would be too damaging to the environment.

"Okay." Si Haochen drew out his long soft sword, jumped up and slashed, chopping off a tree trunk as tall as a person.

Mingruo's eyes were full of care, and he did this action in one go, which was so handsome. "Well, today's task of 'cutting peach blossoms' has been completed."

"Haha." Si Haochen handed the branch full of peach blossoms to Mingruo, "Here."

"Thank you." Mingruo took the peach branch and put it into the space, then held hands with Si Haochen and went down the mountain.

After staying at the villa for two days, Mingruo inspected the orchard. Except for tropical fruits that are not suitable for growing here, there are basically all other fruits. Mingruo picked a few of his favorites to enrich the variety of fruits in the space.

Mingruo discovered that every night, the stars in the villa were extraordinarily bright, so she became interested in climbing to the roof to watch the stars at night.

Si Haochen was afraid that she would accidentally fall down, so he could only accompany her every step of the way: "The Rain Prayer Festival is coming soon, and Luo City will be very lively. Do you want to go and see it?"

"Is Luo City far from here?" Although she really wanted to see a different city, she could be persuaded to stop based on the speed of the carriage.

"If we leave in the morning, we can arrive in the evening." Si Haochen smoothed Shun Mingruo's hair.

"Then go and have a look." This distance is still within Mingruo's acceptable range.

"Then we'll set off tomorrow morning."

"good."

The road to Luocheng is very easy to walk. The road condition is wider and smoother than the roads in the suburbs of Beijing. The carriage can run fast and steadily.

Seeing the confusion in Mingruo's eyes, Si Haochen explained: "There are canals in Luo City, and many goods are unloaded there and then transported by land to the imperial capital and surrounding places."

"Oh." Mingruo nodded, "Then Luo City should be very prosperous, right?"

"Yes." Si Haochen nodded, "Businessmen are pursuing profits and have opened many auction houses, hook-up houses and other places."

"Does the auction house sell antiques?" Mingruo hears the word 'bidding' and can only think of auctions such as 'spring auction' and 'autumn auction'.

"There are also antiques, but most of them are auctioning some precious medicines, weapons, or unique secret books..."

"Sounds quite interesting, haha." Sure enough, time and space are different, and the things that are popular are also different.

"If you are curious, we can go and have a look." Si Haochen found it interesting to see his princess in an unfamiliar field rarely. Going out can really break this girl out of her desireless and see-through state. It seems that she will still be able to see everything in the future.

It would be better to take her out to play more.
