Xia Qiuyue



"Miss, don't forget that you are dressed as a man now. Isn't this inappropriate?" Fuqiu reminded in a low voice.

"Yes, we almost forgot, Qibao, you are not dressed as a girl now." Su Chenyu said.

"I'm still young, and others probably won't say much. When the time comes, I'll just say that I'm picking clothes for my sister at home. Don't worry." Qibao said.

"Okay then, once we've picked one, we'll come find you."

Qibao nodded and signaled everyone to leave quickly.

After everyone left, Qibao swaggered into the clothing section, called over a clerk, and raised his voice and said, "Hey, do you have any clothes suitable for twelve or thirteen-year-old girls?"

Although the clerk had some doubts in his eyes, he still smiled and said, "Sir, our Xiangyun Clothing Shop sells everything from newborn babies to eighty-year-old ladies."

Qibao nodded and said, "Take me to see it."

The clerk smiled and said, "Sir, although every piece in our shop is of the highest quality, when it comes to buying clothes, it's best to come and choose them yourself."

Qibao said, "It's okay. I bought it for my eldest sister. She and I are twins. Since her birthday is coming up soon, I wanted to buy her some nice clothes as a surprise. She and I grew up together, so I know the size of clothes."

The waiter heard this and said, "Sir, you are such a good brother. I will take you to have a look. Clothes for different age groups are divided into different areas. Please follow me inside."

Qibao nodded and said, "Lead the way."

Qibao took Fuqiu and followed the waiter inside for a while.

"Sir, look at the clothes here. They are all suitable for girls of twelve or thirteen years old. They come in various colors." The waiter said, pointing to the clothes hanging on the wall.

Qibao's arrival attracted the curious glances of the ladies and ladies who were choosing clothes in groups around.

Although there is no clear rule that people with bad brains are not allowed to buy women's clothing here, they are indeed a minority, so it is normal to attract attention.

Qibao looked where the clerk pointed. There were clothes of all colors and styles. Qibao took a quick look and thought they looked nice, but too complicated.

However, it is not difficult to understand that the customers of Xiangyun Clothing Shop are all young men and women from wealthy families, and most of the clothes they sell are palace costumes.

"Young... Master, look at this goose yellow dress. It's so beautiful. It must be suitable for big sister." Fuqiu said, pointing to a piece of clothing.

Qibao looked at it and found that this piece of clothing was not complicated at all. It must be because Fuqiu knew that he did not like overly complicated clothes, so she found this one.

It is a long waisted skirt with a goose yellow upper body and a white lower body. The belt is also made of the same goose yellow and white colors, and there are some simple ripples embroidered on it. It is called a long skirt, but if you wear it yourself, it should reach the ankles, so it is not a burden.

Qibao was quite satisfied and said, "Hey, take this one off and wrap it up for me. I'll take a look at the others."

The clerk's face lit up with joy when he heard this. Although the style of this piece was simple, it was made of the finest Shu brocade. The young man looked young, but he didn't even ask the price and wanted to pack it up directly.

"Young Master, you have good taste. The material of this dress is made of the finest quality in our store. Look at how well it drapes and doesn't wrinkle easily. Your sister will definitely like it."

After the clerk finished speaking, he took down the clothes and said, "Young Master, I'll hold the clothes for you first. When you've made your selection, we can go to the counter together to settle the bill."

Qibao nodded and continued to stroll around, but at this time he saw a girl about the same age as Qibao walking towards him.

"Sir, I just overheard you talking to a waiter. You said you were looking for clothes as a birthday present for your sister. Would I be honored to help you choose?"

Qibao felt a little puzzled when he heard this, so he said, "Thank you for your kindness, young lady. However, there is no need to trouble you. My maid and I can do it."

Upon hearing this, the girl glanced at Fuqiu and said with a smile, "How can a maid have such vision and perspective? My name is Xia Qiuyue, and my father is a General of the Imperial Guards, a fourth-rank official. I don't recognize you, young master. I wonder which family you belong to?"

Xia Qiuyue's eyes were shining when she looked at Qibao. She rarely saw such a good-looking young man. In addition, the clothes he wore were made of the best materials, so she guessed that his family background must be good. As for why he looked unfamiliar, she thought he was a young master from a family who didn't like to show up in public.

Although her father was a General of the Central Army of the fourth rank, she was only born to his father's concubine and was a real lady. Therefore, she was determined to find a powerful young master as her husband and beat up those who looked down on her because she was just a concubine born from her concubine's womb.

When Qibao heard her look down on Fuqiu, his voice turned colder and he said, "Xia Qiuyue, right? I think you've hooked up with the wrong person. I'm just from a small town and my family lives in the village. You'd better not set your sights on me, young lady."

Xia Qiuyue didn't believe it at all when she heard it. How could a villager exude such aura? Even many young masters from aristocratic families she had met were not as outstanding as the young man in front of her.

"Sir, you are joking. How could you be from the village? Qiuyue just wants to be friends with you, but you just don't want to. There is no need to lie to Qiuyue!" Xia Qiuyue's eyes turned red as she spoke.

Qibao was completely speechless. She was just telling the truth and didn't say anything else. But why did Xia Qiuyue look like she was about to cry and felt wronged?

Qibao saw it clearly. The person in front of him was definitely what is commonly known as a white lotus in modern times. At this age, she would only be in junior high school, but in ancient times, people of the same age would have learned to act like a white lotus? It turns out that living environment is really important.

"There's no need for me to lie to you. Miss, please don't bother me anymore. I'm from the countryside, so it's better for me not to have anything to do with a lady from an official family like you." Qibao said.

"Are you really from the countryside? Then why are you dressed so well? And do you have maids serving you?" Xia Qiuyue was still a little incredulous and asked with a gloomy expression.

"Who told you that country people have to wear rags? Miss Xia, you should go out for a walk and broaden your horizons." Qibao frowned.

"Hahaha, Xia Qiuyue, you're really making me laugh to death! You're so obsessed with climbing up the social ladder, but you're blind, thinking a country bumpkin is the son of a wealthy family. No wonder your eldest sister said you're not up to the standard. What respectable young master would be interested in a mere concubine's daughter?"

At this moment, a woman's unbridled laughter was heard.
