Mo Lan thought for a while and asked someone to buy two Zhuangzi.

The distance between the two Zhuangzi is not very close, but they are both in the same direction.

Moreover, both Zhuangzi are adjacent to mountains and rivers, with rivers connecting them.

The smaller one was from an ordinary wealthy gentry's family, named Zhuangzi under Lin Xiaoniang's name.

The other Zhuangzi is much bigger, and Mo Lan hangs on Zhao Ceying's head.

From the day she bought it, Mo Lan asked people to repair it openly and make sure that the outside was renovated magnificently.

This is Mo Lan's trick.

She set up a double blindfold.

First, after Zhao Ceying left, she dressed up for the Shen family and hid in Dazhuangzi pretending to be a maid and a woman.

With her makeup skills, she is sure to make the Shen family look like ordinary maids, making it difficult for people to tell them apart.

Then go to Dazhuangzi, arrange the poisonous smoke and traps, and then use the prepared boat to go to Xiaozhuangzi and hide in the cellar dug in advance.

In this way, Mo Lan didn't believe that the assassin could still find them.

As long as you survive a few days, you'll be safe.

This is the best way to protect everyone.

In fact, Mo Lan originally thought of finding an excuse to return to Bianjing before the mutiny.

It would be easy for her to return to her parents' home, but there was no reason for Shen to follow him to Bianjing.

She changed some plots. What if a butterfly effect occurs and Shen dies?

If something happens to the Shen family, after the father-in-law ascends the throne, he will appoint a new queen both emotionally and rationally.

By then, Ceying and her position will be awkward.

Therefore, Mo Lan plans to keep these people as much as possible.

Mrs. Zou also needs to protect her.

First of all, she is indeed a nice person, and Mo Lan admires her.

Secondly, by keeping Mrs. Zou, she also sold Shen Congxing a favor.

Just when Mo Lan asked people to repair Dazhuangzi, the Lantern Festival arrived.

Early in the morning, Mo Lan opened her eyes and saw a wooden box next to her pillow.

She opened it and saw a jade pendant inside.

The jade pendant is sapphire color, the seed water is transparent, and it is very beautiful.

But the carving is a bit unsatisfactory.

Mo Lan raised the jade pendant to her eyes in confusion and looked at it again and again.

This jade pendant can be faintly seen, carved into the shape of an orchid.

Who did Ceying find to carve? How come the carver looks like a beginner...

Is it possible...

A thought came to Mo Lan's mind: Could it be that Zhao Ceying carved it himself?

She got up, washed herself, and hung the jade pendant around her waist.

As soon as he walked out of the room, he saw Zhao Ceying practicing martial arts in the yard.

Mo Lan stopped and admired it for a long time.

Not sure if he noticed that Mo Lan was watching, Zhao Ceying practiced even harder.

But the martial arts moves have changed from killing and decisive to elegant and sharp.

In addition, he was wearing green and white clothes, which made him look even more upright and majestic.

Zhao Ceying pretended not to see Mo Lan and tried to use the most handsome sword technique that he had memorized in his mind.

Seeing him like this, Mo Lan suddenly understood why throughout the ages, young heroes in martial arts novels usually used swords.

It is indeed more handsome than other weapons!

"Madam, why are you up?"

After sheathing his sword, Zhao Ceying looked at Mo Lan with a surprised look on his face, as if he had just discovered it.

But how can he have the talent for acting?

That exaggerated expression clearly told Mo Lan that he was acting for her.

Mo Lan suppressed a smile in her heart and took out a handkerchief to gently wipe the sweat on Zhao Ceying's forehead.

"I just got up, so it's normal that you didn't see me."

After Mo Lan wiped the sweat on his forehead, she took his big hand and wiped the dirty areas for him.

After touching the scratch on Zhao Ceying's thumb that hadn't grown yet, Mo Lan became convinced.

Sure enough, the jade pendant was indeed carved by Zhao Ceying himself!

Zhao Ceying allowed her to touch and touch him, enjoying it very much.

After his eyes touched the jade pendant on Mo Lan's waist, his ears felt a little warm.

Pretending to be casual, he asked: "Madam, do you... like this jade pendant?"

He thought to himself that if Mo Lan liked it, then he would honestly say that he carved it.

If he didn't like it, he wouldn't mention it and would carve a better one for Mo Lan next time.

Mo Lan looked at him and couldn't help but curl her lips.

She put her hands around Zhao Ceying's neck, and her spring-like eyes became brighter and brighter.

"Love it so much."

"Really?"

Zhao Ceying's eyes lit up, her heart was full of joy, and she hugged Mo Lan into her arms.

"That's natural."

Mo Lan said with a smile: "The orchid above matches my name."

Zhao Ceying said a little unconfidently: "Then, it was a bit different at that moment..."

"Nonsense. Although the shapes are somewhat different, the charm is still there. They were clearly carved using freehand techniques. What's wrong?"

Mo Lan's face was full of disapproval.

Zhao Ceying's face heated up after being praised.

"It's not that good..."

He is still somewhat self-aware of himself.

"What I think is good is good. I don't want what you think, I want what I feel."

Mo Lan pinched his handsome face, her eyes filled with emotion.

"Besides, you specially found someone to carve this, right? My husband's kindness alone is worth thousands of gold."

Looking at her with loving eyes, Zhao Ceying felt so full that she couldn't say anything to refute.

Mo'er actually liked the jade pendant he gave her so much, even though the carver generally thought it was excellent.

It can be seen that what Mo'er cares about most is him!

Because the jade pendant was given by him, Mo'er felt good about it.

The more Zhao Ceying thought about it, the more beautiful she felt. She hugged Mo Lan's little face and took a peck.

"Actually, I actually carved this jade pendant myself."

Zhao Ceying admitted embarrassedly: "I'm not good at carving. It took me a long time to carve such a jade pendant."

Fortunately, he only used stones to practice his skills beforehand and did not use jade materials.

Otherwise, where can I find such good materials? He dug this out from the warehouse!

Zhao Ceying didn't know why, but he could even draw a sword when he played with the sword.

But the little carving knife seemed to be disobedient in his hand.

I obviously wanted to make a cut to the east, but I decided to make a cut to the west.

I obviously wanted to stroke lightly, but I used too much force and broke it in half.

He just felt that all his strength was gone.

Although Mo Lan had already guessed it, there was still a look of surprise on his face.

"Did your husband carve it himself?"

She hurriedly took Zhao Ceying's hand and checked it carefully: "Does it hurt? No wonder you have small wounds on your hands. I thought they were injured during martial arts training!"

Mo Lan touched the scratch lightly and frowned slightly: "It must be painful, right?"

"Where is this?"

Zhao Ceying waved her hand indifferently: "People who practice martial arts have long been used to bumps and bumps on their bodies. Besides, it's just such a scratch, how can it hurt?"

"Nonsense, how come it doesn't hurt?"

Mo Lan pouted in dissatisfaction: "You don't feel any pain, I feel sad just looking at you."

Zhao Ceying felt warm in her heart, hugging her and coaxing softly: "I will be careful next time, and I will never hurt myself again."

Mo Lan relaxed his brows.

She didn't ask Zhao Ceying to stop this behavior.

The greater the sunk cost, the more Zhao Ceying becomes obsessed with herself.

Later, when he became King Huan and became an official, he paid more attention to himself.

Although Mo Lan decided to be more sincere to Zhao Ceying, sincerity is sincerity, and relationships must be managed with skills.

Just like a big lady.

The eldest lady is sincere to her father, but because she speaks badly and has a bad temper, her father doesn't like her.

It can be seen that for two people to get along, just having feelings is not enough.

The right way is to make both people feel comfortable.
