The Captivating Crown Prince - Chapter 258
Chapter 258 He woke up early in the morning and realized that the person beside him was no longer around. He smiled and got up to put on his clean clothes.She and Nangong Qian had been here for ten days. Because Brother Wang had been in the mountains to gather herbs for them, although their injuries weren’t completely healed, as long as they were careful, there shouldn’t be a big problem.
Since Brother Wang and his wife didn’t have any clothes on, Shang and Nangong Qian still wore their tattered clothes. However, the damage to their clothes had been mended by Aunt Wang. Last night, Nangong Qian took away the clothes, Shang Guan did not think too much about it, but now that he saw the clean clothes, he knew that they were washed by Nan Gong Qian, he did not care, because one time, he was going to wash his own clothes, but he was rejected by Nan Gong Qian. From then on, their clothes were always washed by Nan Gong Qian, and the first few times Nangong Qian washed clothes were a mess, but now they can be seen.
After dressing up, he walked out of his room and saw Brother Wang chopping firewood in the courtyard. Shang was not in the mood to greet him and asked, “Brother Wang, where is Nangong?” The two of them were usually recuperating from their injuries and Nangong Qian He was not even a step away from them. So now that he had woken up, he was not used to not seeing Nangong Qian Shang with his heart in his mouth.
Big Brother Wang put down the axe, wiped the sweat off his forehead and said loudly, “Brother, you left before daybreak, I said that since you woke up, I’ll eat first, he’ll come back as soon as possible!” These days, even though Shang had not told them his real identity, Brother Wang and his wife did not ask, as they lived together in harmony.
At this time, Mrs. Wang and Big Treasure came out of the kitchen. Big Treasure instantly came to his side. He wanted to hug his sister, but every time he thought of his brother, his eyes would be filled with fear.
“Sister, sister, you’re up!” Right now, the happiest thing about Big Treasure was not going out to play with his father, but to stay by his sister’s side. Although this sister didn’t really care much about others, she was still very pretty.
Shang was in no mood to touch his head and asked smilingly, “Why is it so early?” After all, aren’t children always lazy to sleep? These days Shang Wuxin truly thought that this child was rather fun, more or less getting closer to him, to the point where Nangong Qian’s face turned dark who knows how many times.
“Daddy said that only a well-behaved child would like Da Bao!” Big Treasure patted his chest as he spoke. Once, a husband and wife were either luring or scolding him. Now, being heartless was more useful than anything.
“Great Treasure is very obedient!” This child was much more sensible than his peers. Maybe it was because the children of poor families were always mature and wise, and more importantly, this child still had a kind heart.
“Sister, it’s time to eat breakfast!” These days, they did not know what Shang’s name was, but they had heard the man calling her Xin’er. They were used to calling each other ‘Sister’, and they also realized that although the two of them appeared cold but they were easy to get along with.
Shang Wuxin shook his head, “Brother Wang, sister-in-law, you guys go ahead. I’ll wait for Nangong’s return!” With that, he led Da Bao into the kitchen. Big Brother Wang wanted to urge everyone to eat together, but was stopped by Madam Wang. She smiled and said, “I have a good relationship with you. I’ll keep the dishes for you first!”
It was very quiet here, but there were about a few hundred people in the entire village. However, the people in the village lived together, and Brother Wang and Aunt Wang were bullied by the people in the village because they were poor, so they had no choice but to move to this place to live alone. Although this place was like a paradise, it was not a paradise. Where there were people, there would be a dark side, and this place was no exception.
When Nangong Qian returned with the wild rabbit, she saw a woman with unbound hair standing outside the small and crude house. The woman wore white clothes, even though there were some wrinkles on the clothes, but it didn’t affect the woman’s aura nor her unparalleled appearance. She looked at herself as if she was a wife waiting for her husband to return, and in an instant, Nangong Qian’s footsteps quickened, and his steps were even a bit lighter.
“Xin Er!” Nangong Qian came up to Shang Wuxin and touched his hand. He discovered that Shang Wuxin’s hand was a little cold so he quickly pulled Shang Wuxin into the house. Then, he lifted the prey in his hand and asked, “Have you eaten this today?”
These days, the food the two of them ate was plain and simple. Nangong Qian didn’t care, but looking at Shang Wuxin’s pale face, Nangong Qian felt a pang in his heart. Thus, when he was feeling better, Nangong Qian had already gone to the forest to hunt.
Shang Wuxin did not have the kind heart of a normal woman, so seeing the cute rabbit in front of him, he was only considering how to eat it. He smiled and said, “Well, give this to Sister Wang, it’s time to have lunch today!”
Sister-in-law Wang just saw her coming out of the kitchen and saw Nangong Qian holding the rabbit in her hand. She was very happy, “Aiya, little brother really knows how to love people!” “I look a bit thinner these days. After cleaning it up, I will make a good meal at noon!”
“Little brother should come back earlier from now on. Little sister hasn’t even eaten breakfast yet, so Little brother can’t wait for you to come back!” She felt that since they loved each other very much, everything was fine. However, she was not enthusiastic about it, which made everyone who saw her anxious.
Nangong Qian passed the rabbit in his hand to Madam Wang and took Shang Wuxin’s hand, but the curve of his lips could not be retracted. “If I don’t return from now on, do you want to eat first?” Although he was very happy that Shang did not have the heart to wait for him, Nangong Qian did not want to starve to death.
Shang was not in the mood to follow Nangong Qian into the kitchen, disdainfully saying, “How can you be so sure that I’m waiting for you, this arrogance of yours needs to be cured!” Shang did not like to admit that he liked it.
He felt that he had a lifetime of time in which Shang did not have the heart to acknowledge that he was him. Even if Shang did not have himself in his heart at one time, he would still be able to persevere, not to mention that this woman now had him in her heart.
“Wah!” What a cute little white rabbit! Are you eating it at noon today? ” When Big Treasure saw the little white rabbit in his mother’s hand, he immediately ran over. From time to time, he even stretched out his hand to touch the little rabbit. He could clearly see the child’s playfulness.
Madam Wang smiled and said, “I ate it at noon today, so it’s a good chance to nourish your sister’s body!” Shang Wuxin had originally thought that a child would be sad and unwilling to part with his son after hearing of such a thing, but it turned out that Big Treasure didn’t feel the pinch at all and directly said, “Great, great. We’ll have meat for lunch today!”
Nangong Qian could see that Shang was confused, so he whispered into Shang’s ear, “Compared to food and interest, one’s livelihood is more important! Although Great Treasure is only a child who is kind, but this kind of child is always more ruthless for the sake of food than the ones you see! ”
Everyone had their own way of life. Perhaps this family might be simple and kind, but it did not mean that they did not have brains. However, compared to many people, they were much more pleasing to look at.
“Big brother, did you catch this white rabbit?” Da Bao asked with admiration. One must know that a little white rabbit in the forest was extremely difficult to catch. It was very small and could hide and run very fast. He and his father had caught it many times but had never caught it.
Nangong Qian nodded. Then, he saw Big Treasure eagerly say, “Then, can Big Brother bring Big Treasure with you next time you go?”
Nangong Qian wanted to reject him, but thinking about how he and Shang Wuxin were currently eating at their place, Nangong Qian nodded, “If you behave yourself, I’ll bring you along next time and teach you how to hunt!”
“That’s great! Elder sister, wait for Big Treasure to catch the little white rabbit and give it to you! ” These words successfully made Nangong Qian’s face darken. Brother Wang and Aunt Wang came out of the kitchen with Da Bao after seeing that something was wrong with Da Bao. They could tell that this man’s desire for women was not ordinary. Sometimes, when Sister Wang looked at Shang Wuxin a few times, she would receive a cold stare.
“You want to eat a child’s vinegar?” The domineering Nangong Qian did not know how to handle Han Xuanhao and the rest. Thinking of Han Xuanhao and the rest, Shang Guanxin recalled that he had not received any news for so many days, and most importantly, the only road leading out of the village was actually blocked by a huge rock. Even she and Nangong Qian could not do anything about it.
“Did you get anything this morning?” Shang Tong did not know that if he followed Nangong Qian’s personality, even if he went hunting, he would observe many things and even try to find a way out. It was not a long term plan for them, they could not let go of their status and responsibilities.
Nangong Qian picked up some food for Shang and said, “This village is surrounded by cliffs, and it’s impossible to leave. The cliff is too high, and the only path is blocked. We don’t have people or anything, so there’s no way to explode!” If they were outside, they might have exploded this area. However, they were trapped here, and even their bodies were in pain.
Shang’s brows furrowed, it seemed that the matter was rather difficult to handle. However, he was not actually afraid. If he could live out his life in a place like this with Shang Wuxin, Nangong Qian would be willing and happy to do so, but he knew Shang Wuxin would not like this place. Perhaps liking the night is only a temporary matter, so he had to leave for Shang Wuxin.
At that moment, a ruckus suddenly came from outside.
