Chapter 524: Being ridiculed for his disfigurement, Jun Wuxian shows up to slap him in the face

Xu Qingqing put down her hand and turned to look at Caixia, "What do you know? Today is the Qiqiao Festival, how can there be no boys and girls showing affection on the street? I am a single dog and I will definitely be fed up with dog food if I go out."

Caixia was confused, "Miss, I don't understand what you say more and more. Miss is from a famous family, how can you be compared with a dog? Even if I am a maid, I don't eat what a dog eats, how can Miss eat it?"

Xu Qingqing: "..."Next time I read a romance novel, I still have to drag Caixia to read it together, otherwise it will be difficult to chat.

"Miss, let's go out for a walk, let's also go to the seventh sister to ask for marriage." Caixia was eager to try.

In the end, Xu Qingqing compromised. She didn't want to be forced to eat dog food, but Caixia was willing to eat it.

She stood up, took out her handkerchief, and adjusted the tassels at her temples, "Forget it, I will take you out for a walk."

Caixia saw that the lady was willing to go out, and happily followed her.

Xu Qingqing went out with her personal maid, and was seen by the general's wife.

The general's wife had been worried about her daughter and found that she was not as lively as before. She knew that it was mostly because of her face.

Seeing her daughter go out of the house to pay respects to her seventh sister, she was so happy.

"Changfeng, follow me, don't let Qingqing be bullied."

"Don't worry, mother, your son will never let anyone bully your sister."

After Xu Changfeng finished speaking, he turned around and followed.

In order to let his sister have fun, he just followed from a distance, as long as he made sure that his sister was not bullied.

During the Qiqiao Festival, the streets were several times more lively than usual.

Boys and girls who usually don't go out will also go out to pay respects to their seventh sister today.

Xu Qingqing looked at the lively streets. This was the first time she had celebrated the Qiqiao Festival since she left the palace. Before she entered the palace, her brothers took her out to play.

A few years passed in a flash.

Xu Qingqing felt that time passed so quickly. She was almost twenty years old.

"Hey, isn't this Qingqing? Are you here to pay respects to the Seventh Sister as well?"

Xu Qingqing heard a familiar female voice, looked back, and saw a woman in rose-red clothes standing less than two meters away from her. The woman had delicate makeup on and wore a luxurious pearl hairpin on her head.

This woman was Cao Yanran, the legitimate daughter of Duke Cao, who was one year younger than her and liked to compare herself with others in everything.

She just couldn't stand it, so every time she saw her comparing herself with others, she would say a few words.

Cao Yanran was not someone who was easy to bully. Every time she wore gold and silver, she would show off.

Every time there was a tea party, it was inevitable that several rich girls would show off their headdresses, clothes, etc.

After Xu Qingqing came out of the palace, she had only seen Cao Yanran once, and it was a party held by a group of rich girls for her.

At first, she thought they really missed her, but after going there, she realized that their purpose was just to see how sad she was after being driven out of the palace.

It was a pity that they were disappointed, and she was very happy, not disappointed at all.

Cao Yanran did not come out alone. There was another person standing next to her, and that person was the champion who was rejected by her before, Du Zhiheng.

A few days ago, I heard that the champion and Cao Yanran, the daughter of the Duke's Mansion, were about to get engaged. When I saw her today, I knew that the rumor was true.

Du Zhiheng saw Xu Qingqing who rejected him. He had heard that Xu Qingqing was disfigured. Now he saw her wearing a veil. Needless to say, it must be a bit disfigured, but it still felt a little incredible.

This is probably the turn of events. Will Xu Qingqing regret rejecting him?

Du Zhiheng stepped forward to greet him, "Miss Xu."

Xu Qingqing ignored Cao Yanran's deliberate address and smiled and said, "Today's Qiqiao Festival is so lively, how can I be missing?"

She glanced at Du Zhiheng again, "The champion is here too."

Du Zhiheng looked down at Cao Yanran. Although she was not as beautiful as Xu Qingqing, she was also a beauty. What's more, compared with the disfigured Xu Qingqing, she was better.

"I came here with Yanran."

Cao Yanran looked up at Du Zhiheng, her eyes full of shyness.

Xu Qingqing rolled her eyes. She had just gone out and hadn't played yet, but she was forced to feed dog food, and she was feeding it to her.

Cao Yanran retracted her gaze and looked at Xu Qingqing, glancing at the veil on her cheek. As a woman, she knew too well why she wore a veil. She must be too ugly to be seen in public.

She was slightly inferior in appearance before.

Now, Xu Qingqing is not worthy of being compared with her.

Cao Yanran's eyes were full of pride: "Yes, Qingqing likes the most lively, and the Qiqiao Festival is so lively, Qingqing will definitely not miss it, but..." Cao Yanran looked around and pretended to be surprised: "Why did Qingqing come out alone?"

Xu Qingqing glanced at Caixia beside her, "Who said I came out alone? Didn't Miss Cao see my maid?"

Caixia also took two steps forward in cooperation.

The smile on Cao Yanran's lips froze. She knew what she meant, but she still mentioned the maid on purpose. Is the maid considered a human being?

"I heard someone came to propose marriage a while ago. Why didn't you bring Qingqing with you?"

Xu Qingqing is now disfigured. Those who are willing to come to propose marriage are not a good match. Most people would not even hide when they know she is disfigured.

In front of Du Zhiheng, Cao Yanran must have heard about the blind date before.

Cao Yanran said this just to slap her in the face and make her lose face.

"Really? I didn't even know someone came to propose marriage, but you knew it. Do you have the ability to predict the future? Then tell me when I can meet my ideal husband?"

Xu Qingqing looked at Cao Yanran with a smile, as if she was waiting.

Cao Yanran found that Xu Qingqing was a little different from before. She would not have said that before.

"I just heard it. Since Qingqing said no, it must be someone else's nonsense."

Xu Qingqing said: "Today, it is said that I am engaged. Will it be said tomorrow that I have a child out of wedlock? Miss Cao likes to associate with this kind of people. No wonder we have only met once since I left the palace. Fortunately, fortunately, I will not be friends with such people, so as not to lower my taste."

Cao Yanran's face changed immediately after hearing this. After entering the palace, her ability to confront people has improved.

She clenched her handkerchief in anger and forced a smile on the surface: "It's just a joke. Qingqing, don't be angry."

Xu Qingqing rolled her eyes at Cao Yanran and ignored her. She was in a bad mood to begin with, and when she met Cao Yanran, her mood was greatly reduced.

Just as she was about to leave, Cao Yanran called her unwillingly, "Qingqing, guess the riddles and get a lantern."

Xu Qingqing looked in the direction of Cao Yanran's finger and saw a high platform in front of her. On the high platform, there was a banner that read: Guess the riddles and get a pair of blessing lanterns. Guess three riddles in a row and get a day trip to Wanfeng Villa.

The back mountain of Wanfeng Villa is full of maple trees. It is autumn now. The maple trees on the mountain look like a sea of ​​​​flaming red flowers from a distance.

Wanfeng Villa is a private villa and is not open to the public. Who is willing to give up this opportunity to go in for a day trip?

The high platform was full of people, men and women, all wanting to compete for the day trip to Wanfeng Villa.

Du Zhiheng saw that Cao Yanran was interested, and he was the top scholar, so he naturally wanted to compete.

"I'll try."

Cao Yanran looked at Du Zhiheng shyly, feeling proud and happy.

"Okay."

Du Zhiheng smiled, glanced at Xu Qingqing, and walked into the crowd and went up the high platform.

Cao Yanran looked at Xu Qingqing with a smile on her face, "Qingqing, you should join us, then we can go to Wanfeng Villa together."

Xu Qingqing said indifferently, "I'm not interested."

At this time, a figure walked out of the crowd, climbed onto the platform with Qinggong, and after standing firmly, he howled to Xu Qingqing, "Sister, I'll help you."

Xu Qingqing saw the little brother on the platform and waved her handkerchief at him in surprise, "Brother, come on."

Cao Yanran saw Xu Changfeng standing on the platform, handsome and elegant, with flying eyebrows, and she felt unhappy.

At first, she liked Xu Changfeng, but she hinted many times and asked Xu Changfeng to come to propose marriage, but she was ignored, so she agreed to let her father marry the champion Du Zhiheng.

Although she was unwilling in her heart, she thought that Du Zhiheng was the champion and Xu Changfeng had nothing, and was not as good as Du Zhiheng at all, so she would definitely win, and she could be proud of it at the same time.

There were many people who participated in the competition, but they wanted to retreat just by looking at the champion. Wouldn't it be a slap in the face to show off in front of the champion?

There were six people on the stage in total. These six people were also famous families in the capital, and they were well-educated. Naturally, they wanted to compete.

Just as the lantern riddle guessing was about to start, another figure flew over from the high platform. When the person landed steadily on the high platform, he immediately attracted everyone's attention.

The person was wearing a dark purple wide-sleeved gold brocade robe, with a noble temperament, a purple gold crown, and long black hair. It was as if he had walked out of a painting, which made people amazed.

The man had a pair of auspicious phoenix eyes, as if he didn't care about anything, with a bit of willful and unrestrained.

"This young man is so handsome."

"Whose young man is this? Why haven't I seen him before?"

There were heated discussions and praises all around.

Only Xu Qingqing stared at the man on the high platform for a long time, and she couldn't believe that he would come to Daxia today.

After not seeing him for almost fifty days, he was still handsome, and he looked even more handsome when holding a fan.

I finally saw Jun Wuxian again.

Cao Yanran was also amazed by the young man on the stage. She was curious about which famous family he came from, and she had the illusion that they had met too late.

She turned her head to glance at Xu Qingqing, only to see that she had been staring at the young man.

"Qingqing, are you crazy about him? But it's normal, because he is handsome." Cao Yanran said in a joking tone.

Xu Qingqing rarely denied or said anything, but nodded in agreement: "Well, he is indeed very handsome, much more handsome than the top scholar."

Cao Yanran's face, which had just eased after hearing this, became ugly again. She snorted in her heart, and didn't she look at how her face was ruined? Still want to covet him?

"Du Zhiheng is indeed not as handsome as him. I value his character rather than his appearance. Besides, Du Zhiheng is a top scholar, and he cannot be compared with beauty alone."

Xu Qingqing stared at the figure for a long time, and unconsciously uttered a sentence, "Not entirely."

Cao Yanran was unhappy, but it was not easy to tear her face, so it was a good opportunity for her to see the knowledge of the top scholar.

"You will know after you see it later."

Xu Qingqing ignored Cao Yanran.

With the sound of a gong, the lantern riddle guessing began.

The representative of the organizer was a man in his thirties, with a handsome face, and it was obvious that he was a scholar.

Behind him was a row of red lanterns, all of which contained lantern riddles.

"Gentlemen, guessing lantern riddles is a quick-answer question. Whoever knows the answer can say it out first, without worrying about gentlemanly manners."

After the representative of the organizer explained the rules, he came under the red lantern, grabbed the tassel and pulled it down, and the lantern riddle came out.

There is a seed in the watermelon (guess a word)

Jun Wuxian: "Lonely."

The six people were confused for a moment when Jun Wuxian answered before they could react.

The organizer smiled and said, "This gentleman answered correctly. The answer is: I am alone."

Xu Changfeng couldn't help but give a thumbs up, "Mr. Jun, you are amazing."

Xu Changfeng noticed Jun Wuxian when he came up. His sister must be happy when Jun Wuxian came.

Jun Wuxian smiled slightly, "Thank you."

Du Zhiheng glanced at Jun Wuxian. He also knew the answer, but he was a little slower. He wouldn't have such a good opportunity next time.

The second riddle was, it's hard to fly with two wings. It's both a garment and a house. It's better to let the flood blow it down to the sea than let the sun dry the house. (Guess an animal)

Jun Wuxian: "Clam."

Jun Wuxian got the first answer again.

The organizer couldn't help but take another look at Jun Wuxian, "This gentleman answered correctly, the answer is clam."

Xu Changfeng stared at the riddle for a long time, but couldn't guess it. He looked at Jun Wuxian with wide eyes, "You can guess this?"

Not only Xu Changfeng was surprised, but also the other gentlemen were surprised, because they had just finished reading the riddle, and Jun Wuxian had already answered it. Who could beat him?

Du Zhiheng frowned, he didn't expect that he, a top scholar, would be at a disadvantage.

A young man asked Du Zhiheng curiously, "No. 1 scholar, have you guessed it?"

Du Zhiheng pretended to be calm and said, "Of course I guessed it, but I answered a little slowly."

The man praised, "No. 1 scholar is really different."

The representative of the organizer reminded again, "This young man has answered two questions correctly and won a pair of blessing lanterns. If he answers another question correctly, he will be eligible for a one-day tour of Wanfeng Villa and can bring a companion."

If they don't get the last question, they will have no chance. They are eager to try.

The third riddle is: A group of sheep came, guess a fruit

The seven people were stunned when they saw the riddle.

Xu Changfeng scratched his head and turned to look at Jun Wuxian, "Mr. Jun, do you know?"

Jun Wuxian chuckled, "You don't know?"

Xu Changfeng answered honestly, "I don't know."

"This time even Mr. Jun doesn't know." Someone couldn't help asking Du Zhiheng, "Does the No. 1 scholar know?"

Du Zhiheng frowned, always feeling that this is not a riddle, sheep are coming, what the hell is it?

The representative of the organizer looked at the seven young men in front of him calmly, as if he had expected it, and raised the corners of his lips slightly.

Jun Wuxian waved his folding fan and uttered two words lightly: "Strawberry."

Du Zhiheng sneered: "There is no such fruit as strawberry."

The smile on the organizer's face froze for a moment, and then he smiled and asked: "This young man, please answer the riddle."

Jun Wuxian said calmly: "A group of sheep came, and sheep naturally have to eat grass. After a group of sheep eat the grass, the grass is gone, which is homophonic to strawberry."

"But Daxia doesn't have this kind of fruit."

"That's right, I haven't heard of it."

Everyone raised doubts one after another.

Xu Changfeng remembers that his sister wrote home and said she wanted to eat strawberries, "I heard that my sister ate strawberries in the palace."

Jun Wuxian turned his head and looked at Xu Changfeng, with a flash of surprise in his eyes: "Qingqing has eaten strawberries?"
