Chapter 67 Wedding Date

Regardless, Ning Yuan was a little surprised.

He still remembered something that happened so long ago.

She couldn't even remember what he looked like then. She only remembered that Shen Yan was about thirteen or fourteen years old at that time. He was not as tall as he is now, but he was much taller than her. However, he had the same calmness and composure as

he later became. Only the soft flesh on his cheeks that had not completely faded away showed that he was still a teenager. Later, as he grew older, his flesh gradually became thinner and he became the handsome man he is today.

In short, she liked this goose sculpture more than a live goose.

She liked the little thoughts that he inadvertently revealed in it, which seemed like a kind of understanding and exploration, but Ning Li would never understand these.

The process of the three books and six ceremonies was very complicated, and the Shen family did not simplify the wedding and neglect Ning Yuan just because her mother was not in charge.

For this reason, Old Master Shen even went to the palace and asked the Qin Tianjian for three auspicious days, which were March 9, April 7, and May 18.

Ning Yuan didn't care about the wedding date. For her, it didn't matter where she stayed, as long as she was given a yard and no restrictions on her freedom.

But Shen Yan was afraid of any changes, so he hoped that the wedding would be as soon as possible, so he chose March 9.

Ning Yuan had more important things in mind. One was the news she heard from the concubine last time, and the other was that she was always thinking about what kind of gift she should give to Shen Yan.

The former can be put aside for now. She thinks it will be easier to investigate after she leaves Ning Mansion.

Although marrying him is just a trade-off, the goose sculpture he gave her is too expensive. Ning Yuan feels that she can't afford it. Besides, he has helped her a lot. She seems to owe him something in return.

There are still a few months before the divorce date. She has to make something presentable.

But she is a jack of all trades. A

jack of all trades means that she can do everything, but she is not good at anything.

An ordinary girl may make a pair of shoes and embroider a purse, but after throwing away who knows how many pieces of cloth, she was completely lost.

Shouxing picked up the fine satin at her feet and brought it to her together with the ones she had previously collected in the small wooden box: "Miss, you... you are simply wasting resources. Even if you ruined them, you could have used them as a handkerchief or something. Why are you throwing them all away?"

She flipped through them one by one, wondering: "Aren't these all embroidered very lifelike?"

"Look at the bunch of lychees on this handkerchief..."

"That's red plum blossoms." Ning Yuan said expressionlessly.

"Oh." Zhuo Xing smiled awkwardly, "Aren't these two ducks embroidered very well? Why did you throw them away again?"

She looked at her frustratedly: "Thank you, this is a duck."

"...Or, would you like me to embroider it for you?"

Ning Yuan hesitated for a moment and said, "Forget it, it's too insincere."

"I'd better change the gift."

But she really didn't know what to give. She couldn't just ask Shen Yan directly, right?

She was melancholy for a long time, and suddenly thought of another person.

Although she couldn't ask Shen Yan, she could always ask Brother Pei.

They are good friends and must know each other better.

Pei Zixing was on duty that day, and Ning Yuan entered the palace and saw him easily.

He also saw her, his eyes paused for a moment, and then he walked towards her and said, "Yuanyuan, long time no see, how are you doing recently?"

Ning Yuan pursed her lips and said "hmm", and asked back, "Brother Pei, how are you?"

"I'm fine too." He stared at her obedient and gentle face.

Since the moment they met, I don't know if she has noticed it herself.

No matter how his attitude towards her changed, her eyes on him remained unchanged.

Friendly, quiet, and a little distant.

"What's the matter with you coming to see me?"

He had seen Ning Yuan several times in the past few days, but they just exchanged a few pleasantries as usual and then left in a hurry.

Since their wedding date was set, she seemed to be very busy, so busy that she had no time to look for him again.

Now she rarely sees him.

Ning Yuan bit her lip and said, "I want to ask you, what does Shen Yan like? I want to prepare a gift for him, but I have no idea."

"What does he like..." Pei Zixing recalled carefully and said cautiously, "He doesn't seem to like anything in particular. Maybe he has seen too much. Whether it is gold, silver, treasures, or calligraphy, painting, jade, he doesn't care much."

"If you really want to give him something he likes... It's very simple, just have to have something to do with you."

"Related to me?"

Ning Yuan repeated it, thinking about what this meant.

"As long as the intention is enough, I think he will like it no matter what it is."

The Shen family motto is to be moderate in three meals a day.

But he still remembers that Shen Yan could eat her burnt dishes without changing his expression, and he could also finish the five bowls of porridge she sent him in one breath.

Ask himself, he himself might not be able to eat it.

Shen Yan cherished even the failed products sent by Ning Yuan so much, which shows that as long as Ning Yuan is willing to pay attention to him, it will be fine.

He never expected that once his love was aroused, he would meet an opponent like Shen Zhiyu.

In this competition that was not even a competition, he could only admit defeat.

Ning Yuan was walking on the way back home, and she felt that there was no difference whether she asked or not.

The word "thought" can be big or small. Cooking a meal by hand is a thought, and carving a goose by hand is also a thought, but how can the degree of energy consumption of the two be compared?

After much thought, she finally decided to go directly to see Shen Yan.

Logically speaking, she should not meet him privately before getting married.

But she has never been so obedient and reasonable.

She just stopped in front of the government office and inadvertently saw a familiar carriage just leaving, but she couldn't remember where she had seen it.

When she followed the guard inside and walked to Shen Yan's desk, she suddenly remembered that it was a carriage specially used for purchasing in her family's house.

How could the purchase be made to his place?

Someone must have borrowed this carriage to come here.

"Shen Yan, did someone from my family come to see you just now?"

Shen Yan was writing something, and he didn't stop when he heard this. He said, "It was Miss Ning."

Ning Yuan frowned when he heard this: "What did she come for?"

"She came to tell me that you went to the palace today." He said calmly, "To see Zixing."

"I answered and let her go."

Ning Yuan remembered that he used to make sarcastic remarks about Brother Pei, and felt guilty when she heard this: "Don't misunderstand me again."

"I went to see him to ask him something, not what you think."

What did he ask?

Could it be to ask him whether he had her in his heart or something like that?

Even so, he said calmly, "I'm not imagining anything."

Ning Yuan seemed unconvinced: "Really?"

"Really."

The queen should behave like a queen.

Anyway, she had agreed to marry him, and the wedding date had been set. No matter how much she cared about Zixing, she was still his wife.

No matter how good the men outside were, they were just passers-by who came and went in a hurry. Only he was her eternal home.

But he couldn't help but ask curiously, "What did you ask him?"

"...I won't tell you." She said, "But I decided to give you a gift, anything is fine."

"Why?" He looked at her in confusion. This book is exclusively compiled by the LK team for you "Women should return the gift."

"Although our wedding is a bit forced, we still have to be polite."

"Are you serious?"

Ning Yuan said "hmm".

"Then call me husband." He said suspiciously.

"...This won't work."

Shen Yan was silent for a moment: "Then you say you love me."

"...This won't work either!"

Shen Yan put down his pen, looked up at her, frowned and said: "Didn't you say anything is fine? Why don't you keep your word?"

"These...these are too simple, things that come out of your mouth...this is the only chance, I'm afraid you'll waste it and regret it for the rest of your life."

"Okay." He leaned back in his chair and said calmly, "Then you'll be with me for the rest of your life."

"I will definitely not regret this for the rest of my life."

Ning Yuan: "..."

"Can you change to something more practical?"

Shen Yan looked at her dissatisfiedly: "What do you mean? Why is it unrealistic?"

"Are you going to divorce me because of another man?"

"...No, what I mean is, if our relationship breaks down, if you fall in love with someone else...there will be many unexpected situations like this in the future, and I can't guarantee that I will be with you forever." She said softly, "So it's better to say something that doesn't take that long and can be realized immediately."

Can be realized immediately?

Shen Yan paused and looked around.

This is his office, there is nothing leisurely, the only advantage is that it has good privacy.

Speaking of wishes that can be realized immediately...

if she wants to do something intimate, she might as well say it directly, instead of taking such a big detour.

Shen Yan stared at her, and understood a little, his Adam's apple moved: "Then come here."

Ning Yuan was about to walk over, and there was a knock on the door: "Young Master, the matter you asked me to investigate has a result."

Shen Yan's face immediately showed a bit of unhappiness. The atmosphere was silent for a moment, and he stood up and pursed his lips and said: "Please bear with it, I will be back soon."

What should she bear?

Ning Yuan's eyes were a little confused.

Shen Yan left her alone here. She was bored for a while, so she observed his bookshelf and found a few storybooks mixed in with dozens of files.

She took them out and flipped through them casually. She had read many of them before, all of which were about hatred and love.

Ning Yuan frowned slightly.

If the words she saw in the palace last time were an accident, but this time they were also seen in the government office, what does this prove?

It proves that Shen Yan likes this.

He usually pretends to be a decent person, but I didn’t expect that he would actually read these things in private.

No wonder he is so good when he is not pretending.

However, this also made her discover his hobbies inadvertently. Since the return gift must be pleasing to him...

she roughly knows what to give him on the wedding.

This book is exclusively compiled by the LK team for you. Ning Yuan's expression gradually became clear, and he turned around and walked out.

*

Time flies, and soon it is the ninth day of March.

In fact, since the Shen family sent the betrothal gifts to the Ning family a few days ago, the mansion has become obviously busy, moving boxes one by one.

Ning Yuan got up early and was pressed in front of a bronze mirror to put on makeup and tie her hair. It was a rare time for her to put on gorgeous makeup.

When the auspicious time came, Ning Yuan covered herself with red silk to block her vision and was supported by the star-studded star to walk to the carriage. Then, a pair of strong hands replaced her and helped her get off the carriage steadily and stepped into the gate of the Shen Mansion.

Even though there was a piece of red silk between them, she could still sense the crowd around her.

She was a little nervous, her mind was blank, and she did whatever others asked her to do. She only remembered that the hand had been holding her almost all the time and never let go.

After going through a complicated ritual, she was finally sent to the bridal chamber. After drinking the wedding wine at the call of the bridesmaid, the people around her all left and things gradually quieted down. This book is exclusively compiled by the LK team for you. But her heart beat faster and faster.

It was very strange.

She felt nervous when there were many people around, but now that everyone had left, why was she getting more and more nervous?

It was probably because she was going to give Shen Yan the gift she had prepared carefully.

In fact, this was not a big deal, but the gift she prepared was not like that of an ordinary woman, and could even be called shocking.

She pinched her palms, trying to calm her slightly chaotic heartbeat, but suddenly her eyes lit up.

The veil was lifted.
