Springtime Farming: A Happy Wife At Home

Chapter 1454: Date of Return

Editor: Henyee Translations

In Qingdi, cattle and sheep were slaughtered, creating a vibrant and lively atmosphere.

Later in the evening, another grand bonfire celebration was planned. Princess Shuangfu, now the bride, would be dressed in the splendid attire of a Qingdi concubine, standing alongside Prince Nuo Nuo to receive the blessings of the guests and partake in the festivities.

Princess Shuangfu had grown accustomed to this entirely distinct tradition, though it still felt somewhat foreign. Nevertheless, she managed to handle it with success.

Qiao Xuan instructed Bi Yun and the others to inform the Qingdi locals that Princess Shuangfu was shy. Understanding her intention, the Qingdi people responded with kind smiles and became more considerate toward the princess.

After Princess Shuangfu’s wedding, the members of the Great Qin diplomatic mission couldn’t stay any longer. With the initial excitement wearing off, they found themselves yearning for the lively atmosphere of the capital.

The environment in Qingdi was somewhat unfamiliar, and the local cuisine, though acceptable, didn’t compare to the delectable dishes served in the capital’s restaurants.

Shao Yunduan made a request to Qingdi.

Prince Nuo Nuo was deeply reluctant and expressed his desire for Shao Yunduan to stay in Qingdi. “I wish Lord Shao could stay in Qingdi! I want to continue learning from you! I can’t understand what others are saying, and it makes me sleepy to listen to them. Only you can make me understand…”

Shao Yunduan was at a loss for words.

He thought to himself, “I didn’t discuss Great Qin culture with you, such as the Four Books and Five Classics. I only shared historical anecdotes and tales of famous figures. Of course you understand.”

If he couldn’t grasp it, there must be something amiss with his intellect.

“Prince, all good things must come to an end. Additionally, I have other responsibilities that prevent me from staying away for too long. Please understand. If you ever have the opportunity in the future, I welcome you to visit Great Qin again. When that time comes, I will extend my hospitality to you!”

Prince Nuo Nuo burst into laughter and patted Shao Yunduan on the shoulder. “Alright! I’ll definitely return when I have some free time. Just wait for me. I’ll make sure to improve my alcohol tolerance. Then, I’ll be able to challenge you properly. Hmph!”

Shao Yunduan smiled and replied, “I eagerly await your instruction!”

“Very well, just you wait!” Prince Nuo Nuo chuckled heartily.

The date set for sending the diplomatic mission back to Great Qin was scheduled for five days later.

This news filled everyone with joy, and the entire diplomatic mission exuded a happy and relaxed atmosphere.

Prince Nuo Nuo extended an invitation to Shao Yunduan and the others to join him in a hunting expedition.

Shao Yunduan wasn’t particularly interested in hunting, but Qiao Xuan was excited about the prospect. “I was thinking it would be great if we could hunt here! Hunting in this environment will be a unique experience!”

Shao Yunduan agreed, “You’re right. Let’s give it a try then!”

On the appointed day, Prince Nuo Nuo, accompanied by Princess Shuangfu and others, led a large group of riders on a grand hunting expedition.

Auntie Si, Biyun, and the others were unfamiliar with horseback riding and opted not to join Princess Shuangfu’s group. Instead, two robust women with sturdy builds served as attendants to the princess. It was evident that they possessed considerable strength.

Princess Shuangfu had only recently learned to ride a horse, and she still felt somewhat awkward in the saddle. She was delighted to see Qiao Xuan and, as they rode side by side, they engaged in conversation.

However, their slower pace couldn’t go unnoticed. Prince Nuo Nuo frequently glanced back, displaying a hint of concern.
