My Crown Prince Consort Is a Firecracker!

Chapter 1265: A Pair of Oddballs

Miss Pei’s face showed a bit of excitement. “I, I can? Crown Prince Consort.”

As a response, Qiao Mu handed her that medical book.

Miss Pei took it in both hands as if she had obtained a precious treasure, and she actually just started reading through it page by page in front of Qiao Mu, drunk on its contents.

The young servant girl standing behind her was nearly alarmed to death by her blockheaded miss, and she reached out to pull at her miss.

Yet Qiao Mu waved her hand at her and said, “Let her read.”

This was perfect for her to take a short nap.

These two oddballs—one had come as a guest yet started reading through a medical book, neglecting everyone, after conversing fewer than three sentences with her host.

While the other, who ditched her guest after enticing her with a book, took a nap...

This situation tempted Shaoyao into nearly bursting out in giggles when she came over.

After replacing the two ladies’ cups with hot tea, she beckoned for the other servants to bring Miss Pei’s young servant girl, who was crying on the inside, somewhere else to rest for a while.

The sunlight shone lazily in the afternoon.

The trees’ mottled shadows rendered a tranquil atmosphere.

Meanwhile, the servants who were hyped up with the preparations all involuntarily quieted their footsteps by slowing their pace when they passed by this small, quiet courtyard.

One girl was asleep with a blanket covering her belly, while the other one was joyfully engrossed in the medical book she was holding.

This was the scene that Crown Prince Mo witnessed when he came over, and a faint smile involuntarily crept over his face.

His darling was still that adorable no matter what she did.

She still looked so good sleeping quietly underneath the big tree.

“Your Highness.” Shaoyao, who had come upon hearing his footsteps, was about to curtsy, but Crown Prince Mo stopped her with a wave.

“How long has the crown prince consort slept for.”

“It has been more than an hour already.”

Crown Prince Mo smiled. “Then let her sleep for a while more. I’ll go and talk with Father-in-Law for now.”

“Yes.”

Not long after Crown Prince Mo left, the little one sleeping there seemed to have sensed something, and she wriggled her body while opening her slightly dazed eyes.

Shaoyao smiled with closed lips as she jogged over to her and remarked, “Miss, you’ve awakened.”

“Did Mo Lian come just now.” Qiao Mu turned to look at Shaoyao.

Shaoyao’s eyes lit up, and she applauded with repeated nods, “Miss, you’re so incredible. His Highness the Crown Prince had just stopped by. He went to go chat with the Master after seeing that you were still asleep.”

“Oh.” Qiao Mu turned around. When she saw that Miss Pei was still leafing through the book with relish while in the same position from an hour ago, she couldn’t help but be at a loss for words.

“She’s been reading for as long as I’ve been sleeping?”

“Mhm.” Shaoyao giggled as she commented softly, “I’ve already replaced the tea twice, yet Miss Pei has been so focused that she hasn’t even taken a sip yet.”

Their conversation finally aroused the bookworm’s attention, and the miss hastily put down the book with a reddened face. She was abashed as she stammered apologetically, “S-Sorry, Crown Prince Consort. I-I was too immersed in the medical book that I h-had forgotten that the reason I ca-came was to thank you.”

“Ah, Baihui, where are the pastries we brought? Eh? Where is Baihui?”

Shaoyao couldn’t resist laughing. “Do not worry, Miss Pei. We brought that young girl to eat some snacks and rest inside.

“Ah. This really is too embarrassing.” Pei Jia looked at Qiao Mu with a reddened face. Seeing that Qiao Mu’s expression, although stoic, was cool without a hint of displeasure, her heart finally settled down.

“Crown Prince Consort, I-I, when I read books I easily get immersed.”
