Chapter 556 The End
"Jiuyue, your answer is too insincere." Jun Lie sat up straight. He squatted in front of her, just at eye level with her. He said, "Our future home must be the most comfortable one."
"Well, you're right." Xiao Jiuyue looked at Jun Lie with a smile. At this moment, Jun Lie was like a bichon frise seeking favor. She pretended not to hear the hidden meaning in his words and said, "Do you have anything else to do?"
Jun Lie didn't say anything, looking at her with accusation in his eyes, as if to say: I braved the cold to find you, and in the end, you want to drive me away?
Xiao Jiuyue pretended not to see the meaning in his eyes, yawned, and said, "If you don't have anything else to do, I have to go to bed. I have to learn the last day's rules with Nanny tomorrow."
"Jiuyue, you talked a lot with that kid named He today."
Jun Lie's sour words could no longer be hidden. He clasped her waist tightly and said, "Jiu Yue, don't you want to stay with me for a while longer?"
"Jealous." Xiao Jiuyue reached out and pinched his face. Seeing his surprised look, she raised an eyebrow and asked, "Why, I can't pinch you?"
Jun Lie was stunned for a moment, looking at the way she raised her eyebrows, as if they were getting closer. His lips lifted up slightly and he said, "Yes."
Xiao Jiuyue felt it felt good, so she pinched it again. Imitating the male protagonist on TV, her delicate hand gently lifted his chin. The candlelight flickered, and she looked at the handsome face in front of her and said, "From now on, just say what you think. Don't beat around the bush!"
She has never been married, but she doesn't like to be guessed at. If she has to be cautious every day around her partner, then she would rather not get married.
"Okay." Jun Lie's Adam's apple rolled as the unique fragrance of her body filled his nose. He was so close that he could even see the tiny hairs on her face. He suppressed the emotions surging in his eyes and asked, "Jiuyue, do you want to see me?"
His voice was a little darker than usual.
"I do." Xiao Jiuyue nodded without hesitation, her eyes tracing his handsome face, which was so pleasing to the eyes.
Her answer softened Jun Lie's stern face instantly. He stood up slightly and moved closer to her. Their breaths intertwined, and his eyes fell on her bright red lips: "Can I kiss you?"
"..." Xiao Jiuyue's mouth twitched. If that's the case, why ask?
Xiao Jiuyue lowered her head and took the initiative to kiss him. The light kiss was her answer.
…
After a long time, Xiao Jiuyue's lips were numb. She immediately said to the man, "It's freezing outside. We're getting married soon. What if we catch a cold and it affects the wedding date?"
Jun Lie originally wanted to say that he was not afraid of the cold, but after hearing what he said next, he patted his chest and assured: "Jiuyue, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of myself."
He stretched out his long arms and held her tightly in his arms. His hands slid through her long black hair, and his lips pressed against her ear as he said, "Jiuyue, wait for me to come and marry you with a sedan chair carried by eight people!"
"Okay." Xiao Jiuyue also showed some anticipation. When he left, her hand fell on her lips. Why did she start to worry about what would happen after marriage? This man who had been single for 25 years, she...
…
"Miss, this is a gift from the shopkeeper Zeng of Fengchunlou to add to your makeup."
Lian Xin counted the gift list and reported it to Xiao Jiuyue one by one. She couldn't help but smack her lips: "This shopkeeper Zeng is really generous."
The gifts that Manager Zeng gave were very straightforward, namely gold, silver, jewelry and the like.
"Maybe, as a thank you?" Xiao Jiuyue looked at a box of jewelry, cloth, and other things, then at a pile nearby and asked, "Who gave these to you?"
"Miss Tang from the candy shop." Luo Kui said from the side. She was the one who accepted the gift. She said, "This is a letter from Miss Tang to you. The Tang family said that Miss Tang just got married and is pregnant. Otherwise, Miss Tang would have delivered it personally."
"By the way, the one who came was Miss Tang's elder brother." Luo Kui added that the gift given by the butler and the gift given by Miss Tang's elder brother were naturally different.
"Moreover, the Tang family sent two gifts, saying that one is for Miss Tang and the other is for the Tang family!" Luo Kui handed forward two gift lists.
"It seems that there has been nothing but good news recently." Xiao Jiuyue didn't expect that Tang Tian, who had never been pregnant before, happened to be pregnant this time!
Well, maybe she got pregnant after taking care of her body?
"This was sent by Hu Yi from the salt well."
“…”
As the gift lists were handed to Xiao Jiuyue, she couldn't help but smile and said, "With all these dowry gifts, I can become a rich woman."
"That's because the young lady is generous. When Miss Tang, Miss Lei and Miss Song got married, the young lady's dowry was not small at all." Lianxin added with a smile.
"That's right." Luo Kui nodded in agreement. Not to mention giving gifts to a few good friends, even when Hua Qing got married, the dowry given by the young lady was very generous. Even they got a gold bracelet!
"It's a matter of reciprocity. When you three get married, I will definitely not favor one over the other." Xiao Jiuyue looked at them jokingly and said, "How about it, do you have a crush on someone? I'll be your matchmaker then."
"I must follow the young lady into the palace. How can the young lady not have someone she is used to when she first arrives at the palace? Lianxin can get married, and I have to follow the young lady." Luo Kui said with a smile. Although she had been teased by Xiao Jiuyue many times, she didn't feel embarrassed at all.
"I have to wait until the young lady is settled in the palace before I can get married." Lianxin also made her attitude clear.
After hearing this, Xiao Jiuyue shook her head helplessly and said, "Let's wait and see after they get married. Ai Qiushi is still in Hongdu Salt Well, working as a carpenter for Hu Yi, and he won't be back for a while."
"Sister Xiao."
When the Sixth Princess came with the dowry, she brought a group of girls with her, all of whom were the girls who had dinner together that day. Even the Fifth Princess came, except Feng Yin, but she also asked someone to bring gifts.
Xiao Jiuyue was very good at socializing, and with the Sixth Princess always protecting her, the group of people got along very harmoniously. In the evening, when she was looking through the list of gifts for the dowry, Xiao Jiuyue felt a headache and threw the things to Su Su, saying, "Mother, you should handle these."
Maybe she was going to get married, and Su Su couldn't bear to let her go when she saw her. She also talked about what she should do in her husband's family in the future. At first, Xiao Jiuyue listened very seriously, but after hearing it ten or dozens of times, Xiao Jiuyue became a little scared.
It’s better to give Su Su something to do so that she won’t be arrested.
The day before her wedding, Xiao Jiuyue had another dream. It was still the same long staircase, and it was still the same man in black, holding her body firmly and walking up as if there was no end.
Xiao Jiuyue tried hard to see everything clearly. After countless doubts, she saw that the stairs finally came to an end!
