Female Master: Why doesn’t my wife love me yet?

Chapter 257: Catching Mermaids

He didn't have much desire for food, as long as he could fill his stomach.

But he was determined to get those beautiful clothes, jewelry and so on.

After going out, Qi Ziyao first bought some things and went back to the Qi family.

When Qi's mother saw him, she was a little surprised and looked outside as if she was looking for someone.

"Where's Young Master Gu? Didn't she come with you?"

Last time, Gu Qingyuan helped the Qi family resolve the crisis, and she was just about to thank Gu Qingyuan.

Qi Ziyao shook his head and said, "My wife has something to do, so she went to Nanjiang City with Her Royal Highness the Princess."

As he said that, he handed the things he bought to Qi's mother.

Zhaomei and Panmei were waiting by the carriage. Qi Ziyao said he would be back soon, so the two of them did not follow him.

Now the two brothers were leaning against the carriage, looking around curiously.

"Brother, if it weren't for the young master, the two of us would probably still be living a life of having no food to eat."

Panmei said this, rubbed her stomach and burped.

"Yes, thanks to meeting the young master."

Zhaomei smiled when she thought about the time when she first met her.

After waiting for a while, Qi Ziyao came back.

"Come on, let's go look at some clothes first."

When the carriage arrived at the door of the clothing store, Qi Ziyao was the first to jump off.

Shitou, Zhaomei and Panmei followed closely behind and stepped in with him.

When the boss saw Qi Ziyao, his eyes almost narrowed into a line.

Master Qi is their big customer. Not only is he generous, but he also buys a lot of things back home.

When he saw Qi Ziyao, he said, "Master Qi, are you here to buy clothes again?"

Qi Ziyao said "hmm" and looked for nice clothes in the store.

The boss took out a fur coat made of fox fur and introduced it: "This is the only one in the store. It's made of fox fur. Mr. Qi, would you like to try it?"

When Qi Ziyao heard the boss's voice, he turned around and looked at the fox fur in his hand. The overall color was gray-brown, and the fox fur on it looked very warm.

When Zhaomei and Panmei heard that it was made of fox fur, they hugged each other and trembled.

Shitou asked doubtfully, "Are you two cold?"

Qi Ziyao also glanced at them, and the two of them quickly separated.

"No... not cold."

The two of them were wondering, would their fur also be stripped off and made into clothes?

Qi Ziyao quickly put the two of them behind him and tried on the fox fur coat.

Although the color is not very bright, it looks surprisingly good on him.

Zhaomei and Panmei looked at the clothes and mourned in silence for their poor fellow fox who had died.

After buying clothes, Qi Ziyao went out again.

This fox fur coat was not cheap, and after buying it, he had very little money left.

Several people rushed to the cosmetics shop again, and Qi Ziyao tried the new products in the store one by one.

……

Ever since he got legs, Ling Yu often went to Gu Qingyuan's place in southern Xinjiang to find her.

However, he didn't dare to show up directly, but would squat by the window or on the roof.

Gu Qingyuan saw a tile falling from the roof, looked up and saw Lingyu.

After she went out, she jumped onto the roof and asked, "Why are you here?"

"Of course I want to see you."

Fortunately, it was night and everyone was resting.

Gu Qingyuan brought him into the house and replaced the fallen tiles.

He was wearing Gu Qingyuan's clothes inside and the outer robe outside.

"If other people saw it..."

Ling Yu said dissatisfiedly: "Am I embarrassed?"

Gu Qingyuan was stunned.

"Of course not, it's just that I can't explain your origins to others."

"If you can't explain it, then don't explain it. Why should we care about other people's opinions?"

Gu Qingyuan thought for a moment and said with a smile: "That's what you said."

Ling Yu reached out and hugged her tightly. "I missed you so much when you were not around. Did you miss me?"

"Think about it."

With a loud bang, a huge thunder fell.

“Actually, I miss you at night too…”

There was another loud thunder.

Lingyu crawled into her arms in fear, "Ahhhhh, it's thundering again, I'm so scared."

His fear didn't seem like an act, his whole body was shaking.

He once saw with his own eyes that Lei split a tree in half, and he thought about what it would be like if he was the one being split in half.

Woohoo, will he die? Then he'll never see her again.

"Don't be afraid, it will be fine in a while."

After a few thunders, the dark clouds slowly dispersed. Everyone thought it would rain again, but they saw the moon coming out from the clouds.

It was as if the thunder just now was just their hallucination.

Ling Yu felt uncomfortable lying in her arms and said tearfully, "My benefactor, that strange feeling from last time is back again."

Gu Qingyuan also sensed his abnormality and her body stiffened.

This won't work here. She said to Ling Yu seriously, "You go back tonight."

Lingyu shook his head and said stubbornly, "I won't."

If something really happened here, it would probably spread everywhere tomorrow.

"Be good, I'll come see you tomorrow, okay?"

The work in southern Xinjiang has reached its final stage, and she will be able to go back in ten days at most.

Lingyu came close to her and kissed her.

"Then I wait for you."

Afterwards, Lingyu quietly left under the cover of night.

……

"It's right here, go catch them all."

The princess directed everyone to use fishing nets to catch ling fish on the shore.

People around her asked her, "Are there really mermaids in this world?"

"Of course, I saw it with my own eyes."

Hearing her certainty, the people brought by the princess began to catch Ling fish with the fishing nets borrowed from the people.

She still remembered that this was where she saw Gu Qingyuan and the mermaid together last time.

Humph, come to think of it, I have to thank Gu Qingyuan for helping her discover that there really are mermaids in the world.

Mermaids can be used as medicine and are very nutritious.

It is said that their tears can turn into pearls.

Thinking of this, the princess became restless.

She kept an eye on the movements on the water. This place was so small, and she didn't believe she couldn't catch him.

"I say, we've been here all day. If there was a mermaid, we would have caught it long ago."

Not only did they use fishing nets to try to catch mermaids, they even cut down trees and made rafts to look for mermaids.

But where was the mermaid? They all suspected that Her Highness was deceiving them.

"If I say there is one, then there is one. Would I lie?" The princess said with a gloomy face.

The people who came with her had no choice but to continue fishing.

Lingyu was not in the water at this time. He stood behind a tree, watching those people trying to catch him, and sneered.

Now that he has legs, he looks no different from a human and can live better on land without his tail being dehydrated.

Otherwise, if he had stayed in the water, he might have been caught by them.

The ling fish climbed up the tree, leaned against the trunk, and dangled one leg leisurely in the air.

These people have bad intentions, but they are still benefactors.
