Chapter 3484: 4.1084 Not Returning Home at Night?
This action was quite sudden, even bringing the little monk in Qiao Qiao's hand into his embrace.
"Qiao Qiao is much more powerful than her!" Crown Prince Lian felt it was necessary to let his wife know that in his heart, no alchemist, however formidable, could compare to his little emperor!
Qiao Mu merely glanced at him, too lazy to speak.
The little bald monk, squeezed between the two, complained unhappily, "Female Benefactor, Female Benefactor's husband, can you two stop squeezing this humble monk? My head still has oil on it!"
"I'm wiping it for you, aren't I!" Qiao Mu irritably cupped his round little head and wiped it a few more times. "Alright, no more oil."
The little monk raised a hand to touch his head, then nodded contentedly. "Female Benefactor, this humble monk will wash his hair thoroughly tonight."
Qiao Mu: ...
Mo Lian couldn't help but burst into laughter. "Wash what hair? You're bald and shiny, just wipe it with a cloth every day."
Qiao Qiao pursed her lips in amusement, then picked up the little monk, whose face was still puffed up like a steamed bun, and quickly walked to the carriage, leaping inside.
The group smoothly passed through the Longyan City checkpoint, and Qiao Mu then brought her parents and family to a garden-style residence on Chang Le North Street. This residence was one of five properties she had won from Mu Rou Xuan in a bet and competition on her grandfather's birthday. The space ring contained some talismans and elixirs, which she handed over to Zheng Xiaoliu and the Giant Bear team. This residence was just perfect for her parents and family to live in.
It was also close to her Cai Die Pavilion and Zhen Hui Workshop, and Chang Le Street was a bustling, prime location where every inch of land was precious. Even a medium-sized garden residence like this was very valuable here.
The Qiao family's arrival was sudden, but fortunately, the residence had been regularly cleaned by hired staff, so the environment was relatively tidy. This residence was smaller than their former Jiayuan Marquis Residence but still large enough for the family. The residence was also exquisitely renovated, with pavilions, terraces, waterside pavilions, and even a theater stage, giving it a comfortable and elegant appearance.
As the family moved into the new residence, there was naturally a good deal of tidying and organizing. Seeing that it was getting late, Wei Ziqin urged her daughter and the Crown Prince to return to the palace to rest. Anyway, they couldn't finish organizing everything in a day or two; they planned to settle in first and then slowly sort things out. When they had some free time, they would go to the brokerage to find and hire a couple of servants, and then everything would be on track.
Soon after the young couple returned to the Eastern Palace, a young eunuch rushed in with a message: His Majesty urgently summoned the Crown Prince. Mo Lian reluctantly let go of his little wife and went to his father's Jichen Palace to report.
Qiao Mu, on the other hand, took a quick "combat shower" and then, exhausted, flopped onto the bed, rolling over once. The past period had truly been quite thrilling. Fortunately, the half-month of sightseeing had significantly calmed her anxious heart.
Qiao Mu lay on the bed, thinking that tomorrow she might receive those 100,000 blank jade slips and would also need to go to Yulan Star to draw talismans... Hmm, her cultivation had stabilized quite a bit recently; it was time to advance further.
Lost in thought, she gradually drifted off to sleep. In the middle of the night, she suddenly woke up, reaching out to feel the empty, cold bedding beside her. She quickly sat up, her small face immediately puffing out.
Qiao Qiao's Lian was gone!
