Chapter 65 I am willing to pledge myself to you

Mrs. Qiao knew what her mother-in-law meant and replied, "Mother, Xiaowu is just going to pick up Jiujiu from school. She knows her limits and will not disturb the emperor."

The old lady still had doubts and wanted to ask in person.

"Tell her to come over."

Mrs. Qiao was somewhat helpless and replied, "Mother, Xiaowu and the girls went out to visit the Lantern Festival."

Xiaowu is indeed not in the mansion.

Half an hour ago.

Ji Qingwu changed into a dark blue robe and dressed like a man. She tied her long hair up high, revealing her smooth forehead and slender neck.

She wore a blue jade hairpin on her head, and her eyes and eyebrows were as clear and charming as the bright moon.

She is tall to begin with, so this kind of men's outfit doesn't look out of place for her. Instead, it makes her look more like a thin young man.

Jiujiu, who was standing beside her, was dressed up by her to look like a cute little Fuwa, wearing a short skirt with a Baoxiang flower pattern. Because it was late and cold, she also put on a purple jacket.

Lanzhi was wearing a casual long skirt, but at Ji Qingwu's request, she tied her hair into a bun. The three of them standing together looked like a young family of three.

Ji Qingwu cleared his throat and said in a low voice: "Madam Zhi, please follow your husband."

The Fifth Miss dressed like this really gave people the illusion of seeing a handsome and elegant gentleman. Lanzhi said shyly, "Fifth Miss."

Ji Qingwu curled his lips, smiled and shook his head: "No, no, Madam Zhi, you have to call me husband."

She was already good-looking, and became even more handsome after changing her outfit. He also deliberately teased her, and Lanzhi blushed.

Ji Qingwu did not embarrass her and suggested, "Let's call him Fifth Young Master instead."

They walked to the street. The night market was crowded with tourists, and the scenery was picturesque under the bright lights.

Lin'an City is indeed a prosperous place with numerous carriages and horses, and a city that never sleeps with bright lights.

Ji Qingwu ate all the way from the street corner to the end of the alley.

At Lanzhi's repeated urging, she came out with the fragrant grilled meat and crispy crystal fish in her hands.

Jiujiu was holding a candied haws and cloud cakes tightly in her hands, and hanging on her chest was a big windmill that was spinning in the wind.

The mother and daughter both had satisfied smiles on their faces and walked out hand in hand with their full loads.

It took a while for several people to squeeze out of the crowd and rest on an open space nearby.

Lanzhi said angrily, "Fifth Master, why don't you just watch the child? You just stand in front of the fruit wine stand and can't move."

Ji Qingwu touched his neck and said embarrassedly, "Lanzhi, don't be angry, I won't walk around." The owner of the fruit wine stall was very good at doing business. Unable to resist his enthusiastic calls, she took a sip of the small cup.

Lanzhi led Jiujiu and they walked to the riverside to relieve their hunger.

The scenery before me is free from the hustle and bustle of the night market.

Because it was the Dragon Boat Festival, the riverside was hung with colorful lanterns with mugwort in them. The myriad lights and the flowing water together reflected the wealth and prosperity of Lin'an City.

The water surface shimmered under the light, and suddenly, ripples spread across the water.

ripple?

Ji Qingwu's eyes focused and he looked towards the center of the water surface. Sure enough, he saw a slender figure walking towards the middle of the lake.

She gave what she had in her hand to Lanzhi.

He put his hand to his mouth to muffle his voice and shouted, "Hey! That girl."

The woman seemed to hear the shouting, she paused and stopped in the water.

Seeing this, Ji Qingwu ran to the lake and panted, "Girl, come back soon. The water is cold. If you stay in it for too long, you will get sick!"

The woman lowered her head, her body trembled, and she covered her face and cried. Her sad voice made everyone who heard it feel sad.

She didn't really want to die tonight, she just couldn't think straight for a moment.

She asked someone to deliver a letter and made an appointment with the man to meet her by the lake, but the man was heartless and ungrateful and ignored her.

Unfortunately, she is already pregnant.

In fact, she regretted it the moment she first stepped into the lake because she couldn't bear to leave the baby in her belly. It wasn't until she heard someone calling her that she realized how much she wanted to live.

Seeing that her determination to die was wavering, Ji Qingwu tried to persuade her earnestly.

"Girl, come here. No matter how healthy you are, you can't treat yourself like this. Come ashore quickly."

In the dim night, the woman began to follow the sound and slowly moved towards the shore.

Ji Qingwu stretched out a hand to hold hers, and when he had her firmly in his grasp, he let go.

When the woman saw the man in front of her, she did not take advantage of her, unlike those sanctimonious hypocrites she usually came into contact with in Liangxiang Pavilion.

He is honest and kind-hearted, and is truly a good person.

The woman's palms were cold, but her heart was warm at this moment, and her eyes looking at Ji Qingwu also changed.

With the help of the light from the shore, she carefully looked at Ji Qingwu several times and felt that he was very handsome, with eyes and brows as clear as the scenery of lakes and mountains.

However, his voice was not as deep and powerful as that of an ordinary man, and sounded a bit effeminate. He looks a little thin and not very strong.

At this time, Lanzhi came over with Jiujiu and said, "Fifth Master, it's getting late. Let's go back."

The little girl felt sleepy after eating, and looked listless as if she was about to faint at any time.

Ji Qingwu picked up Jiujiu and said, "Let's go. Daddy will take you home."

The woman looked at the adorable child in Ji Qingwu's arms, and seeing that "he" was holding the child very skillfully, she knew that he must be a good husband who would take good care of the child.

The baby in her belly...she has to find a good father. After thinking for a while, the woman's expression gradually became determined.

"My dear, I have no way to repay you for saving my life. If you don't mind my humble appearance, I will repay you with my body."

As he said this, he moved closer.

Ji Qingwu took a few steps back and reacted quickly by throwing Jiujiu to Lanzhi.

Then, he ran away quickly.

The woman stamped her feet and chased after him. She couldn't miss such an outstanding man!

Ji Qingwu felt something as soon as he heard the woman calling her "husband" in a sweet voice.

It’s better to run away.

After turning two or three corners, she couldn't run anymore and slowly stopped.

He had not yet caught his breath and was about to look back to see if the woman had caught up with him.

But at the corner, she collided with another person who was running towards her. She was unable to dodge sideways and was hit hard on the right shoulder by this person.

Only an arrogant voice was heard.

"Don't you have eyes? Why don't you look at the road?"

The girl had her hair full of pearls and jade. When she shook her head slightly, the hairpins and rings jingled against each other. As soon as she finished speaking, the only sound was the crisp tinkling sound. She must be a lady from a wealthy family.

Ji Qingwu lowered his gaze, looked carefully, and the corners of his mouth twitched. It was really a narrow road that enemies met.

It was Princess Qingyun.

Judging from her expression, it seemed that she hadn't recognized him yet, so Ji Qingwu decided to use the same trick again and turned around and continued to run away.

Every piece of cake tonight was worth it.

Princess Qingyun yelled from behind: "Why are you running!"

This time, Ji Qingwu bumped into someone before he ran a few steps.

Although the man's clothes were smooth and soft, his body was as hard as an iron wall, hitting her head and causing some pain.

Ji Qingwu raised his head and looked at the person in front of him dizzily.

Suddenly I felt even more dizzy.
