Chapter 39 A Big Shot Arrives in Lantian County

Xiao Sizi looked in the direction of the sound and saw a small, emerald-green snake coiled around Lu Jinghe's shoulder, flicking its tongue at her. It looked quite adorable.

"Wow!" Little Sizi's eyes widened, and after a long while, she clapped her hands and exclaimed, "Sister Green really turned into a little snake! So cute!"

Little Sizi reached out to grab A-Lu, and A-Lu cooperated, leaning over Lu Jinghe's shoulder and rubbing her small head against Little Sizi's fingers, even licking them, making the little girl giggle.

"Sister A-Lu, will you always be this small?" Little Si looked at A-Lu curiously and couldn't help but ask.

"Yes, how about you stay with Si Zi like this from now on, Sister A-Lu?" A-Lu's voice was clear and soft, with a hint of laughter.

"Really?"

"Really." A-Lu nodded the snake's head, looking at Si-Zi and feeling her heart melt.

"Great! Persimmon will have Sister Snake now!"

Xiao Sizi stood up directly in Gao Yang's arms. She wanted to run into Lu Jinghe's arms so she could be closer to A Lü.

Lu Jinghe quickly took A-Lu from him.

Seeing this, Gao Yang couldn't help but smile. He turned to look at Lu Jinghe and said, "It feels like the house is getting more and more lively."

Lu Jinghe nodded and smiled, "Yes, it will get more and more lively, and it will be even more lively after our wedding."

"How about we have lots of little babies to play with Sizi?"

"Who wants to have your baby!" Gao Yang blushed instantly. The baby was right there, what were you saying!

Upon hearing that he also had something to say, Little Si asked, "What is a little baby?"

"It's a little kid, about the same age as a rhinoceros."

"That persimmon wants lots and lots of little babies, sister, hurry up and give birth!"

Gao Yang blushed and turned her head away, ignoring the two of them.

As the sun set, the group slowly descended the mountain.

By the time they arrived in Lantian County, it was already dark.

Only then did Lu Jinghe and the others remember Cheng Chumo.

He originally wanted Cheng Chumo to come back early to see if there was any movement in Lantian County, since the commotion caused by his use of thunder magic was quite significant.

And then what happened? Where did that guy go?

There was no one in the inn.

"Can you find Cheng Chumo's location?" Gao Yang asked with concern as he sat down next to Lu Jinghe.

Cheng Chumo is Cheng Yaojin's son. He came out with them, but now he can't be found.

Lu Jinghe's face darkened. How come this guy is sometimes reliable and sometimes unreliable?

The curfew is about to start.

Lu Jinghe did some quick calculations and was so angry he almost cursed out loud.

He said, "Ignore this guy."

"What's wrong?" Gao Yang asked, puzzled. "What did you calculate?"

Lu Jinghe took a deep breath to calm himself down: "That guy went to the magistrate's house and is living the high life. He's currently sleeping soundly with a top courtesan in his arms."

Gao Yang: ...

She didn't ask any unnecessary questions.

"Are you going back to sleep?" Lu Jinghe asked.

Since Gao Yang already knew he was pretending to be asleep, and the two of them had done some outrageous things before, he asked directly.

"No, Xiao Sizi has A-Lu to keep her company, and my husband needs someone to keep him company too."

Gao Yang got excited, gave Lu Jinghe a flirty wink, wrapped her arms around him, and shoved him toward the bed.

Gao Yang raised her head slightly, her eyes sparkling with a deliberately seductive charm: "Why don't you hold me, my husband? Weren't you very comfortable holding me the first two times?"

Lu Jinghe remained silent. So the vixen's nature has been completely undisguised now?

Lu Jinghe didn't stand on ceremony. He reached out and put his arm around Gao Yang's slender waist, and with a quick movement, the two of them rolled into the bed.

"oops!"

What are you doing?

"Are you still going to call me husband?" Lu Jinghe asked, pulling out a piece of red diamond-shaped fabric from who-knows-where.

"What else should I call you if not husband?" Gao Yang was taken aback for a moment, then her eyes darted around, her face flushing even more, and she softly called out, "Ah...ah yeah?"

Lu Jinghe: ? ? ? ? ? ?

"Father...can you return this garment to Zhaoning?"

"7

Lu Jinghe: !!! !!! !!! !!!

Oh no, the buff has stacked up.

These words sent chills down Lu Jinghe's spine, his head buzzed, and he almost lost his balance.

"Are you really from ancient times?" Lu Jinghe stared at Gao Yang like he was looking at a ghost for a long time before lowering his voice and saying, "You'll get what's coming to you on your wedding day."

"Hehe, I don't believe you." Gao Yang smiled, her eyes crinkling, and snuggled into Lu Jinghe's arms, finding a comfortable position.

"Let's go to sleep." Lu Jinghe ignored Gao Yang and simply hugged her before going to sleep, afraid that if they continued to make a fuss, something bad might happen.

Silent all night.

When the sun was high in the sky, Lu Jinghe nudged Gao Yang, who was lying on top of him, and said, "Get up."

"Let's go pick up Cheng Chumo, and then go to that mountain over there to see how to build the factory."

Gao Yang let out a soft moan and groggily opened her eyes, her face full of reluctance.

Since she started dating Lu Jinghe, she has discovered that sleeping in late is really comfortable.

-

However, it wasn't good not to bring a maid. Since Qingwu wasn't there, she had to wash up by herself.

"Where are my clothes?" Gao Yang was washing up when she suddenly felt a light in front of her and realized that one of her clothes was missing.

"Are you in bed?"

"You're being ridiculous. How did you even manage to take off your clothes underneath?"

Gao Yang dawdled while washing up, and after a while, he followed Lu Jinghe out the door.

They took Xiao Sizi and A Lü, who were still fast asleep next door, and headed towards the Lantian County Magistrate's Mansion.

Cheng Chumo was there.

The Lantian County Magistrate's Office is located in the north of Lantian City. With its blue bricks and gray tiles, it looks very majestic.

The constable at the gate had been squatting there all morning. When the men the master had described finally appeared, he hurriedly ran inside to report.

Before long, a fat man in an official robe came out quickly to greet them.

"Your humble servant, Zheng Rentai, the magistrate of Lantian County, pays respects to Your Highness the Princess and Your Highness the Prince Consort!" Zheng Rentai performed the most standard greeting, looking at Gao Yang and Lu Jinghe with utmost respect.

"Magistrate Zheng, there's no need for such formalities." Gao Yang raised her hand, displaying the dignity befitting a princess, and said, "My husband and I have come today to receive Cheng Chumo."

Zheng Rentai's face immediately lit up with a smile: "Young Master Cheng had a drink at my place last night, but couldn't hold his liquor and is still resting in the guest room."

"I have already ordered someone to prepare a hangover soup, which Young Master Cheng can drink once he wakes up. If the princess and Ma do not mind, would you please come inside and have a seat, so that I may serve you tea as an apology?"

"Okay." Gao Yang nodded slightly when he saw that Lu Jinghe had no objections.

Zheng Rentai quickly stepped aside to lead the way, and the group entered the back residence of the county government office.

They passed through two stone gates and arrived at a small courtyard. There were stone tables and benches in the courtyard, and ornamental trees planted in the corner, which could be considered quite elegant.

Zheng Rentai invited them to sit down and ordered tea and refreshments to be served. Only then did he cautiously ask, "I wonder if Princess Ma and you have come to Lantian on important business?"

Lu Jinghe picked up his teacup, took a sip, and casually said, "I'd like to do some business in Lantian and build a workshop."

"Which piece of land does Your Highness wish to use?"

"That mountain."
