Traveling through time as a peasant girl, buying a husband and raising a child

Chapter 205 Missing My Lover

"Yeah, thank you, mother. Zhao'er is asleep now~"

When Jiang Mingzhao heard his mother's agreement, the corners of his stern little face curled up slightly, and then he immediately closed his eyes obediently.

Mu Jiaojiao fell silent afterwards. She looked at the child's well-behaved appearance and thought he was so adorable. Then she looked at Jiang Mingxiao who was sleeping next to Jiang Mingzhao. He was like a little pig, with his hand on his brother's arm, and he was also very adorable.

After the two children's breathing stabilized, Mu Jiaojiao made sure they were asleep, then she tiptoed out of the room and walked towards Zhao Jianjia's room.

“Knock knock… knock knock…”

Mu Jiaojiao saw that the light was still on in Zhao Jianjia's room, so she knocked on the door.

After a while, Zhao Jianjia opened the door from the inside and saw Mu Jiaojiao wearing a white fox fur coat. She immediately asked someone to come in.

"Master? It's cold outside, come in quickly."

Mu Jiaojiao smiled and said, "It's okay, I'm wearing more clothes. Why are you still not asleep so late?"

As she spoke, she walked into the house. There was a charcoal fire burning in the house, which was indeed much warmer.

"It's almost time to rest, but I just can't fall asleep all of a sudden."

Zhao Jianjia closed the door behind Mu Jiaojiao while answering her questions.

When Mu Jiaojiao heard this, she noticed the hibiscus flower and white jade hairpin on the table with her sharp eyesight, and couldn't help but tease him.

"Could it be that Jianjia is missing her lover?"

"Master, you...what are you talking about!"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Jianjia followed Mu Jiaojiao's gaze and saw that she had hurriedly stood up to open the door and gently placed the hairpin on the table. Her face flushed.

"Hahaha... Oh, our Jianjia, is she shy?"

Mu Jiaojiao looked at Zhao Jianjia, whose cheeks suddenly turned red, and knew that she was shy, but she did not let her go and continued to ask questions back.

Zhao Jianjia hurriedly put the hairpin away while looking at Mu Jiaojiao with a face full of reproach: "Master!"

"Hehehe..."

Mu Jiaojiao found it funny to see her like this. She laughed for a long time until her stomach hurt. Then she sat on the chair and took a long time to relax. After she felt she had recovered her breath, she said:

"Okay, I won't tease you anymore. My stomach hurts from laughing!"

"Master, seriously, this is too cheeky!"

Zhao Jianjia's complexion had not yet fully recovered, and she shook her head helplessly. Although her tone was full of disgust, she still poured a cup of floral tea for Mu Jiaojiao. There was nothing wrong with drinking some floral tea at night, and it wouldn't keep her from sleeping.

"What's wrong with me? I'm telling you the truth, okay? Jianjia, do you dare to say that you didn't miss your brother Wushuang just now?"

Mu Jiaojiao was not happy to hear this and asked back secretly, which made Zhao Jianjia blush again.

Zhao Jianjia really lost to Mu Jiaojiao, mainly because she was not as shameless as Mu Jiaojiao and could say anything.

"Jianjia, go to Yudu first. You can also meet your elder brother Wushuang."

Mu Jiaojiao found it funny to see Zhao Jianjia's face full of shame and anger, biting her lips, and not knowing how to refute her.

But after all, she knew that this was Dayu, and girls were shy. If she continued to tease her, Zhao Jianjia would probably feel embarrassed. Then she regained her tone and spoke seriously.

"What does this mean, Master?"

When Zhao Jianjia heard this and looked at Mu Jiaojiao's expression, she knew that Mu Jiaojiao was talking seriously. Was she asking her to go to Yudu first?

"You should go to Yudu first. Once you get there, contact Liu Xinian and start preparing to open Jinluyi. It just so happens that you have experience opening businesses in Maple Leaf City, so you can get twice the result with half the effort."

Mu Jiaojiao told Zhao Jianjia about her plan. If she delayed her departure, she would probably have to wait until after the New Year to set off for Yudu. It would be a good idea for Zhao Jianjia to go first.

"Even if you are a girl, it is not safe for you to go to Yudu alone. Go to Four Seasons Blossoms tomorrow and pick two servants and two maids to accompany you. You will need manpower and things to do with you if you bring two people with you.

I'll let Huaizhu cover your pretty face so you can go safely."

Mu Jiaojiao then thought about it and gave detailed instructions to Zhao Jianjia. When she mentioned the pretty face, she even touched her little face, looking like a playboy who was teasing a decent woman.

"master!"

Zhao Jianjia's cheeks, which had just returned to normal, turned red again. Her master was really not reserved at all and just knew how to tease her all day long.

"Master's orders are true. I can only tell you that I will do my best in everything and will never let you down!"

Zhao Jianjia glanced at Mu Jiaojiao, asked her master to be more normal, and then said seriously that her life was given by Mu Jiaojiao, and she would do her best to help Mu Jiaojiao get what Mu Jiaojiao wanted.

Of course, running the Jinluyi business was actually what she wanted. As a woman doing business, she was independent of the harem, and she also wanted to carve out a world of her own.

"Okay, well done, Jianjia! Of course I believe you.

However, you don't have to feel any pressure. Once you enter Yudu, if you encounter any problems that you can't solve yourself, go find Ajin. It would be shameful if the great Prince Jin couldn't even protect you!"

When Mu Jiaojiao heard Zhao Jianjia say this, the smile on her face became even wider. She patted Zhao Jianjia on the shoulder and said appreciatively.

Then he thought that he was worried that this girl would have to handle everything on her own, so he gave another instruction.

Her man is in Yudu, and at least on the surface he is still useful, so protecting her subordinates is a piece of cake for him.

"Haha...Jianjia knows. If anything really happens, she will definitely go to find Master Jin."

Zhao Jianjia found it amusing to listen to Mu Jiaojiao's disdain for Jiang Jin. Prince Jin was so noble and gentle in front of outsiders, like a banished immortal from heaven. But in front of his own master, he was quite unbearable, like a clingy puppy...

Ahem... I can’t think about it anymore, Zhao Jianjia thought, she was afraid of being disrespectful.

Mu Jiaojiao saw that Zhao Jianjia was also a smart girl, and then gave her a few more instructions. The two of them talked about the precautions of Yu Du Kai Jinlu Yi. Seeing that it was really late, Mu Jiaojiao put on her cloak and left again.

Mu Jiaojiao carried a lamp and walked in the moonlight. In the silent night, only her own footsteps could be heard.

As she walked, Mu Jiaojiao felt a chill down her spine. With a keen sense of danger, she quickly took out a thin scalpel from the space and held it in her hand.

Just as he was about to turn around, he felt a chill on his neck, accompanied by a hoarse, elderly voice: "Don't move! Don't shout! Otherwise I'll kill you!"

Mu Jiaojiao narrowed her eyes slightly, stopped what she was doing, held the lantern and scalpel steadily in both hands, and said in a calm and lazy tone:

"Young man, please hold the knife steady. Don't hurt innocent people!"
