With her father and brother banished, and her engagement to the marquisate broken, everyone eagerly awaited to see Xiao Jiuyue become a laughingstock.
Facing her frail grandmother, her beauti...
Chapter 396 I Do
"Xianxian." Xue Lingxiao raised his hand and lifted her chin with one hand. He leaned forward, and the delicate fragrance of a girl came into his nose. He asked, "Do you really like it?"
As Xue Lingxiao spoke, the breath mixed with the smell of alcohol sprayed on her face. Her chin was lifted high and she looked up at him. Under the moonlight and the flickering candlelight, he had an indescribable charm.
"I like it." Zhuang Xianxian felt her face getting hot. She nervously grabbed her clothes and said, "Brother Lingxiao, how about I make you a hangover soup?"
"I'm not drunk." Xue Lingxiao moved closer, his nose even touching Zhuang Xianxian. Zhuang Xianxian almost forgot to breathe.
The maid was worried. Seeing this scene, she was about to speak when Xue Lingxiao grabbed a cup and smashed it out. The maid was startled. Zhuang Xianxian said, "You go out first."
"Xianxian, we are getting married soon. If you really like me, don't reject me, okay?" After Xue Lingxiao experienced what happened today, he really felt like he was sick for a moment.
Unable to get Xiao Jiuyue, Xue Lingxiao felt hot all over. At this time, seeing Zhuang Xianxian and smelling the delicate fragrance of a girl on her body, he leaned over and kissed her without waiting for Zhuang Xianxian to answer.
"Hmm!" Zhuang Xianxian's eyes widened instantly.
Xue Lingxiao's kiss was gentle and lingering. Before Zhuang Xianxian could come to her senses, Xue Lingxiao rested his forehead against hers, breathing heavily: "Xianxian, in two months, we will get married."
"Brother Lingxiao." Zhuang Xianxian grabbed Xue Lingxiao's hand, her eyes blurry and hesitant as she said, "After we get married, we can..."
"fraud!"
Xue Lingxiao pushed Zhuang Xianxian away, staggered to his feet, and sat down on the bed. He gasped and looked at Zhuang Xianxian: "You don't like me at all, and your Zhuang family doesn't like me either. They think I can't go back to Shengjing, so they have been delaying the marriage!"
"No." Zhuang Xianxian felt particularly innocent when listening to Xue Lingxiao's accusation.
"Then why didn't your father agree when I went to your family to propose marriage this spring?" Xue Lingxiao asked.
Zhuang Xianxian's eyes twinkled as she said, "My parents think it would be better to get married after the autumn harvest."
"Heh." Xue Lingxiao laughed at himself, "Xianxian, go ahead."
After he finished speaking, Xue Lingxiao lay down on the bed. He raised his hand to his forehead and a tear squeezed out of the corner of his eye: "I really like you." His voice was very low, and when the wind blew, it sounded like a whisper or a low hum.
"Brother Lingxiao." Zhuang Xianxian moved forward. Xue Lingxiao felt very broken at this moment. The tears in the corners of his eyes and his whispered confession made Zhuang Xianxian feel extremely guilty.
Zhuang's father and mother did delay Xue Lingxiao's marriage because she had not returned to Shengjing. This time, she secretly followed him to Lancang County.
"I'm not leaving." Zhuang Xianxian grabbed his hand, staring at him intently, and said, "Brother Lingxiao, I like you too. We've already arranged the marriage, and our parents have promised us that we'll get married in November!"
"Xianxian." Xue Lingxiao's hand gently stroked Zhuang Xianxian's hand, as if cherishing it, as if holding a treasure in his palm, and said: "It's enough that you have me in your heart. I can wait."
Xue Lingxiao's lips curled slightly, and he smiled at her. His devilish smile made Zhuang Xianxian's heart beat fast. She said, "Brother Lingxiao, from now on, will you always treat me well?"
"Of course." Xue Lingxiao didn't even think about it. He grabbed Zhuang Xianxian's hand and gently stroked it: "Did I scare you just now? I just missed you too much, so... I lost my composure."
"Brother Lingxiao." Zhuang Xianxian leaned over, pressed her lips against Xue Lingxiao's, and said, "I am willing."
Zhuang Xianxian blushed shyly. Just as she was about to run, Xue Lingxiao grabbed her and pressed her down on the bed. Xue Lingxiao looked at Zhuang Xianxian excitedly: "Xianxian, are you really willing?"
"..." Zhuang Xianxian was extremely shy, her face blushing so much that she didn't dare to look at Xue Lingxiao. Xue Lingxiao leaned over and kissed her directly. Unlike the gentleness and lingering just now, he was now full of domineering and aggressiveness, wishing he could eat Zhuang Xianxian alive.
'Squeak'
There was the sound of the bed shaking, as well as the heavy breathing and low moans. The maid outside the door was looking around like a thief.
"Don't worry, no one can get close to the yard." Zhang Wu held the sword and pretended not to hear any movement in the house.
Zhang Ping reminded him, "Why don't you go pack a set of clothes for your young lady and bring it over. Also, when Miss Han comes back, tell her that the young lady and the young master were chatting."
Well, even though we were chatting in bed.
"Well, I'll go now." The maid said seriously, holding up her skirt and running quickly. Although she was going to be a son-in-law soon, she had not yet gotten married, so she must not let others see anything.
…
"How are Xu Yang and the others?" The first thing Xiao Jiuyue did when she woke up was to ask Xu Yang and the others.
Xu Yang and the boss slept in the front yard, while the remaining bandits were arranged by Xiao Jiuyue to live in the farm.
"Miss, Xu Yang and the headmaster have already followed Jin Wu to the village to check on the fields." Lian Xin finished speaking, and added, "They should be checking on the radishes and cabbages we're growing in the fields."
Since coming to Fu'an Village, the fields have been either planted with rice, radishes and cabbages, without any rest!
As people in Fu'an Village became richer and richer, the harvested radishes and cabbages became a source of income for everyone.
Every time Lianxin goes back to the village, the villagers will praise the eldest lady.
"Well, maybe Jiutou Village can also grow radishes and cabbages." Xiao Jiuyue stretched lazily, as if his entire body had been stretched, and asked, "Has Aishan's batch of polo bottles and grapes not arrived yet?"
"It should be in these two days." Lianxin silently calculated the days.
"Miss, Shopkeeper Jin is here." Luo Kui ran in excitedly. As soon as she saw Xiao Jiuyue, she couldn't wait to tell her that Shopkeeper Jin Ruyu had arrived. "Shopkeeper Jin said that Xiangcheng was severely flooded, and even Donglin County was submerged."
"Please ask Manager Jin to come to the front yard." Xiao Jiuyue immediately got up and went to the front yard to meet Manager Jin.
"Miss Xiao." Jin Ruyu looked a little embarrassed when she saw Xiao Jiuyue. "I'm sorry. I wanted to make money together, but who knew that Donglin County would be flooded."
"But don't worry, Miss Xiao. I have already transported the things here safely. I originally wanted to open a shop in the capital, but then I thought, Miss Xiao also wants to open a shop here. Why not, I will come directly here."
Jin Ruyu said, "I don't have any family in Xiangcheng either."
"Welcome, Shopkeeper Jin." Xiao Jiuyue said, "Originally, when we opened a shop in the capital, I was worried about the new employee not being familiar with the business. I'm relieved that Shopkeeper Jin is here to lead the business personally."
