Chapter 528 This is an expression of love, not ugly at all



Chu Zhao felt that he spoke too quickly. His master hadn't said anything yet, but he, a subordinate, spoke first. Wasn't that a bad idea?

Caixia looked at Chu Zhao in shock, "You mean, what Master Jun sent was a betrothal gift?"

It’s no wonder Caixia was so shocked. When Jun Wuxian was with the young lady, he never said a word to express his affection for her or any good feelings towards her.

If I reveal even a word, given my young lady's personality, how could she not hide it from me?

Chu Zhao touched his nose and said, "I'm just guessing. Everything is subject to my master's decision."

pink clouds:"……"

Also peeking were the worried general's wife and Xu Changfeng, who was equally worried.

The general's wife watched the two men giving each other gifts under the moonlight, and subconsciously thought that they were giving each other tokens of love. She was so excited that tears filled her eyes.

She took out her handkerchief and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. Her precious daughter could finally marry a good man.

Xu Changfeng felt that it was a little unreal. Before leaving, Young Master Jun didn't say that he would come to propose marriage next time. Suddenly, they were together? Xu Changfeng wanted to see what happened next, but the general's wife grabbed his ears and walked him out, "Don't look."

Xu Changfeng grimaced in pain and was forced to leave with his "elderly and frail" mother.

On the way back, the general's wife began to nag: "You are already old enough, it's time to get married."

Xu Changfeng almost jumped up when he heard this, but due to his "old and frail" mother, he had to endure it, for fear of angering his mother to death.

"Mother, let's wait until my sister gets married."

"Looking at the current situation, Qingqing will be getting married soon." The general's wife was both happy and unhappy when she thought about her daughter getting married.

After taking a look at her youngest son, she said, "I will arrange a blind date for you tomorrow."

Xu Changfeng didn't dare to disobey his mother, so he could only perfunctorily respond, "I'll listen to you, mother."

* Xu Qingqing stared at the hairpin in the box without blinking. She had never seen such a beautiful hairpin. She picked up the hairpin carefully and held it in front of her eyes to examine it carefully.

The hairpin is made of jade, which feels cool to the touch, like mutton-fat jade, but the color does not look like mutton-fat jade.

There were two crabapple flowers on the hairpin, one big and one small, emitting a cold white halo. Xu Qingqing, who had seen many rare treasures, could not guess what material the flowers were made of that could emit a halo in the dark night.

The hairpin is simple yet elegant in style.

Xu Qingqing's previous aesthetic taste was for luxurious, ostentatious hairpins that could show one's status. She didn't like this type of simple and elegant hairpin.

Now?

She likes everything Jun Wuxian gives her.

Xu Qingqing raised her head happily and looked at Jun Wuxian, "I like it very much. Thank you for your gift."

Jun Wuxian looked at Xu Qingqing. After being together for such a long time, he still understood her quite well. She was a simple person. Whatever she was thinking would show on her face, so she could easily suffer losses.

"If you like it, that's fine."

Xu Qingqing closed the lid of the gift box, then held it in her arms with both hands, very carefully, for fear of dropping it.

"Then you take a rest first. I should go back and rest as well."

Jun Wuxian nodded: "Yeah."

After Xu Qingqing turned around with the gift, she couldn't hide the smile on her face and walked back to her room with a cheerful step.

Jun Wuxian stood tall and watched the petite figure disappear on the corridor. Although he appeared calm on the surface, he was actually a little nervous in his heart, so there were some things he did not say.

But he felt that there was a long time to come and there was no need to rush.

"Chu Zhao."

Chu Zhao, who had been hiding in the dark, came out quickly when he heard the call.

"master."

"Go check Shen Chuwei's background."

"Master, haven't you checked Shen Chuwei's background? Why are you checking it again?" Chu Zhao asked puzzled.

When I checked before, I didn't conduct an in-depth investigation.

Jun Wuxian glanced at Chu Zhao coldly, "Go to the countryside and check again all the people who know Shen Chuwei."

"I understand." Chu Zhao took the order and left quickly.

Jun Wuxian recalled Susu and Taotao whom he met on the street, and it was as if he saw Xiaojiu when he was a child, especially Susu, whose foodie look was exactly the same as Xiaojiu's.

* Xu Qingqing happily looked down at the gift box in her hand from time to time. She was more surprised than ever before that Jun Wuxian suddenly appeared.

Caixia looked at her young lady's walking posture, which was completely different from before during the day. Before, she looked careless and listless, but now she was full of energy and walked briskly.

"Miss, you are very happy today."

Xu Qingqing grinned unabashedly: "Of course."

Caixia thought of what Chu Zhao had just said and couldn't help but remind her, "Miss, do you know that the gift that Master Jun gave you has a meaning? And it was given on the Qiqiao Festival."

Xu Qingqing was stunned for a moment when she heard this. She lowered her head and looked at the gift in her hand, then looked at Caixia in confusion, "What does it mean?"

Seeing that her young lady was not understanding, Caixia boldly reminded her: "Miss, do you think it could be a token of love or a betrothal gift?"

Xu Qingqing stopped walking, thinking about what Jun Wuxian had said the day he left, that during the Qiqiao Festival in their place, boys and girls would give each other tokens of love to express their love, but they were not in that kind of relationship...

Jun Wuxian had never said that, even just now, he didn't mention it at all.

Xu Qingqing's heartbeat suddenly became cheerful, and she felt a faint sense of anticipation. She asked again uncertainly, "Did Chu Zhao really say that?"

Caixia nodded vigorously, "It is indeed what Chu Zhao said, but he also said that he was just guessing, I think it is probably true."

After hearing Caixia's words, Xu Qingqing lay on the bed unable to sleep, thinking in her mind that the hairpin might be the betrothal gift from Jun Wuxian.

However, Jun Wuxian did not say a word.

The more I think about it, the harder it is to sleep.

This night is destined to be a sleepless night.

The next morning, at the dining table.

It is said that the more a mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, the more she likes him. This is absolutely true.

The general’s wife originally liked Jun Wuxian, and was impeccable in both appearance and temperament. Now she directly regarded him as her son-in-law, constantly reminding him to eat and asking about his well-being.

Jun Wuxian was a carefree and easy-going person who did not care about details. He responded calmly to the warm hospitality of the general's wife.

Xu Qingqing found that the atmosphere was a little strange. She always felt that her mother and brother were looking at her. She raised her head and looked at her mother and brother opposite her.

When she looked over, the general's wife and Xu Changfeng had already lowered their heads and continued to eat breakfast.

A hint of doubt flashed in her eyes. Was she overthinking?

After breakfast, Xu Qingqing took Jun Wuxian to visit the garden. In fact, no matter how big the general's mansion was, he would have visited it all the way when he stayed there for a few days last time. Now he was just visiting it again.

It’s just that the mood is basically the same, probably because of the person next to me.

In the past, Xu Qingqing had a bad temper, liked to argue with people, and liked to show off.

Now she seems to have become more mature as she grows older.

Before I knew it, I came to the pavilion beside the lotus pond, which was shaded and cool.

Xu Qingqing stood in front of the railing, gently waving the round fan in her hand.

Jun Wuxian stood beside Xu Qingqing, looking at the scenery in the lake. Before he left, the pond was full of lotus flowers in the summer, but now the lotus flowers were gone and autumn was approaching.

He lowered his eyes and looked at her, "Qingqing."

"Hmm?" Xu Qingqing raised her head and looked at Jun Wuxian. She found that the way he addressed her had changed. He had never called her Qingqing before, but now that he had changed his name, she actually felt a little uncomfortable.

Jun Wuxian's eyes fell on the veil on her cheek. He had never seen her like this since her cheek was injured.

He put away his folding fan and stretched out his slender fingers behind her ear.

Xu Qingqing didn't know what he wanted to do and just looked at him in confusion. It was not until that hand touched her earlobe that she realized that Jun Wuxian wanted to take off her veil.

She instinctively grabbed the hand and looked at him with a panicked look, "It doesn't look good."

Jun Wuxian said in a gentle voice: "What kind of you have I not seen before? Just a few scars."

Xu Qingqing held that hand tightly, lowered her eyes to look at the folding fan in his hand, and said faintly: "I would be disgusted if I saw it myself, you'd better not look at it."

Jun Wuxian recalled that when she was first disfigured, she was depressed all day long. She said that the most important things for a woman are appearance and chastity.

He regretted not rescuing her earlier, otherwise she wouldn't have to go through all this.

"That's because you value your appearance too much, so you are unwilling to accept its existence. In my eyes, you are no different now than you were before."

Xu Qingqing was stunned when she heard this, then she realized that he was comforting her, she smiled and said: "Before you said that I was too old to get married, now you have also learned to comfort me with words, how could it be the same before and now?"

When Jun Wuxian mentioned this, he was stunned for a moment, "Did I say this?"

Xu Qingqing emphasized, "Of course."

Jun Wuxian tried hard to recall. After spending more than three years with Xu Qingqing, he was shocked to realize one thing: he often broke into the palace at night and always went to Yixiang Palace.

He may, perhaps, have said this: "People change all the time."

Xu Qingqing understood this sentence deeply. She nodded in agreement, "People do change. I can now reflect on myself and realize how stupid I was before."

Jun Wuxian became interested after hearing this, "Why do you say that?"

In the past, because she saw the prince's handsome appearance, she insisted on entering the palace despite her mother's opposition, and learned to use all means to win favor.

Relying on the power of her mother's family, she is arrogant and domineering and doesn't take anyone seriously.

If she wasn't stupid, what was she? However, after she became good friends with Shen Chuwei, she no longer had the desire to compete for favor. At the same time, she also discovered that she could live a carefree and comfortable life without competing for favor.

It was also at that time that she met Jun Wuxian. At that time, Jun Wuxian always appeared in night clothes, with only a pair of eyes showing.

“Let’s not talk about it.” They were all dark histories, so she would not tell Jun Wuxian.

Jun Wuxian chuckled when he heard that, and while she wasn't paying attention, he lifted the veil. The light veil fell, revealing a cheek that hadn't been seen for a long time.

The scar on the cheek is clearly visible.

Xu Qingqing was stunned at first, then she covered her face with her hands, afraid that he would see her. She stared at Jun Wuxian angrily, "How could you do this?"

Jun Wuxian looked at her actions and chuckled, "Are you going to keep your face covered in front of me for the rest of your life?"
