Escape from the famine at the beginning: I rely on space to spoil Lord Shoufu

Chapter 399

Feeling everyone's concern, Tao Xi was moved, but he really didn't want to be treated as a protected animal like a giant panda.

"Don't worry, I have a sense of proportion, you can do your own thing."

"I'll just take care of her, you go to work."

There was a gentle smile on the corner of Jian Shiming's mouth. Since he came to Happy Island, he has really changed a lot, even the smile on his face has increased a little.

Both husband and wife said so, the others had no choice but to glance at Tao Xi cautiously, each busy.

But he always pays attention to Tao Xi from time to time, making Tao Xi feel very uncomfortable at home, so he simply leaves the mansion.

It was bustling outside, and people from many nearby towns had heard of Happy Island. Those with richer families brought their servants and money to come here to celebrate the New Year.

Even the county magistrate of Yun County and several wealthy businessmen have come to Happy Island, but the county magistrate will return to Yun County when they are working.

Tao Xi held Jian Shiming's arm. Instead of riding in a carriage, they walked on the snow. She wore boots on her feet.

The creaking sound when stepping on the snow is really nice.

"Jian Shiming, don't be so careful."

Feeling Jian Shiming holding her hand tightly, Tao Xi couldn't laugh or cry, making her look like a fragile ceramic doll.

"it is good."

He said yes, but Jian Shiming still couldn't do it. The street was very lively. Suddenly, Tao Xi saw a familiar figure.

It was Cheng An. He was still selling tickets a few days ago, and today he was selling candied haws.

Tao Xi couldn't help but walk over, "Cheng An."

Her voice was very soft, even so, she caught off guard Cheng An who was busy.

When he saw Tao Xi and Jian Shiming, panic flashed across his eyes, and he hurriedly explained.

"Master, I... I just want to save more money, and I will do other fortifications as well."

"What are you so nervous about?"

Tao Xi frowned. In fact, he was completely different from his neighbor's big brother in his previous life. They only had the same appearance.

"I have no other meaning."

"sorry."

Cheng An didn't know why he wanted to apologize, but he just said, "I want to pay back the money I borrowed from the county lord earlier."

What he was talking about was the money that Tao Xi gave him to sell his body to bury his grandfather, and Tao Xi had long since forgotten about it.

"No hurry."

"Miss."

Jian Shiming stopped Tao Xi from what he was going to say next, and looked at Cheng An with a warm voice.

"My wife has no other intentions, you can continue to work."

"Ok."

Cheng An nervously clenched the candied haws in front of him, and Jian Shiming led Tao Xi away, "Lady, didn't you notice that he was particularly nervous in front of you?"

"seems like it."

Tao Xi frowned, "I don't have any other intentions, I just greeted him when I saw him."

"Maybe because he hasn't returned your money yet, he always feels a little guilty, so when he sees you, he will subconsciously feel that you want to urge him to pay back the money."

Tao Xi: ...

"How did you know?"

Tao Xi stared at Jian Shiming suspiciously. Jian Shiming looked uncomfortable, and he touched the tip of his nose in embarrassment.

"I used to study in school, and my parents also borrowed money from others. Every time I saw the creditor, I was embarrassed."

This is Jian Shiming's true thought. The only thing he wanted to do back then was to let his parents live a better life as soon as possible.

"I'm sorry to poke your heart."

Tao Xi didn't expect the truth to be like this, so it seems that she still needs to be careful when she sees Cheng An in the future.

"It's okay, it's all over."

Jian Shiming gradually let go of the past when he was fleeing famine.

The two just went out for a walk, and soon returned to the mansion. When Gu Yan left today, he took away all the prisoners that Tao Xi and the others had held.

As for how to deal with it, Tao Xi didn't care at all, after all, Gu Yan would be sensible, and Jian Shiwu also left together.

On the day when Gu Yan left, Qing Zhi knew about it, but she didn't go out very discreetly. It seemed that she really only thought that Gu Yan was Tao Xi's guest.

Although Princess Yun wanted to chase away, she couldn't go to the barracks, and living in Yun County was not as comfortable as living on the island.

After all, there are not only all kinds of delicious food on the island, but also fun things to do on the island. In the end, she lived in the inn with Qi Fu and the other little sisters.

During the Chinese New Year, Qi Fu actually came to see Mr. Qi, but Mr. Qi refused to meet him. He missed the medicine fields on Xiwang Island and did not stay in Happy Island for long.

The days passed quietly, and the new year had just passed.

Tao Xi sent Jian Shirou to get married with tears in her eyes. Although they still lived on the island, they really didn't live together.

They will have their own families in the future.

Besides her, Hua Hua and Yu Sheng are also engaged, and they are not in a hurry to get married, so Tao Xi is not busy either.

Seeing that everything was going well, Tao Xi planned to live back on Xiwang Island. On the day of leaving, he happened to meet Princess Yun and the others.

"grandfather."

Qi Fu glanced cautiously at Elder Qi, Taoxi still took him over who was reluctant to come over the past few days during the Chinese New Year, so when he heard that he was going back to Xiwangdao, he was happier than anyone else.

Just seeing Qi Fu, Elder Qi's face was pulled down, "You don't even listen to me telling you to go back to the capital, why do you call me grandfather."

Qi Fu's face turned red when she said a word, and she explained, "The road over there is frozen, so I can't go back."

"Master, this Fu'er is right."

Ji Zihe couldn't help but interrupt, but Qi Lao ignored her and got on the boat directly.

Seeing them board the boat, Princess Yun and the others also followed, but were stopped by Qing Zhi.

"Girls, I'm sorry, please get on a boat."

"Why?"

Princess Yun widened her eyes angrily, "Aren't there other seats on the boat?"

"Master doesn't go back to Yun County, she goes back to Xiwang Island."

Qingzhi received Tao Xi's gesture and explained casually, which surprised Princess Yun.

"Xiwang Island?"

Seeing that Ji Zihe was also sitting on the boat, she felt a little moved.

Happy Island is so fun, so will Xiwang Island be fun too?
However, Ji Zihe was afraid that Tao Xi would be angry and drive him away, so he didn't dare to meet Princess Yun's eyes, so he put a coat on Elder Qi thoughtfully.

"Master, put it on quickly."

"I'm not cold!"

Old Qi stubbornly didn't want to put on his coat, and he squinted his eyes to enjoy the delicate sea breeze.

Crowd: ...

"Let's go."

Jian Shiming reminded Tao Yu, and Tao Yu hurriedly started to sail, but was stopped by Princess Yun.

"and many more."

"What else is the princess?"

Tao Xi glanced at Princess Yun indifferently, the two had long been grudges, and Tao Xi would have to be humble in front of her.

Princess Yun pouted, "I am a princess after all, so you can't have a better attitude."

Tao Xi: ...

Facing her teasing gaze, Princess Yun snorted softly, "Can't I follow you to Xiwang Island?"

She doesn't plan to go back to Kyoto yet, it's not bad to play in the past.

"Sorry, Xiwang Island is not open to the public."

Tao Xi refused straight away, and Princess Yun didn't dare to compliment her.
