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

As soon as the words fell, both of them were stunned.

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

Caixia looked at Chu Zhao with a shocked face, "You mean, what Mr. Jun sent is a betrothal gift?"

It's no wonder Caixia was so shocked. When Jun Wuxian was with the young lady, he never said a word that he liked the young lady or had a good impression of the young lady.

If he did, with the temperament of his young lady, how could she not hide it from him?

Chu Zhao touched his nose, "I guessed, everything depends on my master."

Caixia: "..."

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

The general's wife looked at the two people giving each other gifts under the moon, subconsciously thinking that they were giving each other tokens of love, and her eyes were immediately filled with tears of excitement.

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

Xu Changfeng felt a little unreal. Mr. Jun didn't say he would come to propose marriage next time before he left. Suddenly, they got together?

Xu Changfeng wanted to see what happened next, but the general's wife grabbed his ear and walked out, "Don't watch."

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

On the way back, the general's wife began to nag: "You are not young anymore, it's time to get married."

Xu Changfeng almost jumped up when he heard this, but because of his "old and frail" mother, he endured it, fearing that he would anger her to death.

"Mother, let's talk about it after my sister gets married."

"Look at the current situation, it won't be long before Qingqing gets married." The general's wife was neither happy nor unhappy when she thought of her daughter getting married.

After taking a look at her youngest son, she said, "I'll 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."

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

The hairpin was made of jade, and it felt cool to the touch, like mutton-fat jade, but the color didn't look like mutton-fat jade.

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

The hairpin was simple and generous.

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

Now?

As long as Jun Wuxian gave it to her, she liked it all.

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 so long, he still understood her better. She was a simple person. Whatever she thought in her heart would show on her face, which made her easy to suffer.

"As long as you like it."

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

"Then you rest first, I should go back to rest too."

Jun Wuxian nodded: "Yes."

After Xu Qingqing turned around with the gift, the smile on her face could not be hidden, and she walked back to her room with a cheerful step.

Jun Wuxian stood tall and watched the petite figure disappear in the corridor. Although he seemed calm on the surface, he was actually a little nervous in his heart, so he didn't say some words.

But he felt that there was a long way to go, so there was no need to rush.

"Chu Zhao."

Chu Zhao, who had been hiding in the dark, came out quickly after hearing the call.

"Master."

"Go check Shen Chuwei's background."

"Master, didn't you check Shen Chuwei's background? Why are you checking it again?" Chu Zhao asked in confusion.

When they checked it before, they didn't investigate it in depth.

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

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

Jun Wuxian recalled Susu and Taotao he met on the street, as if he saw Xiaojiu when he was a child, especially Susu, who looked exactly like Xiaojiu.

*

Xu Qingqing was so happy that she looked down at the gift box in her hand from time to time. She was more surprised than ever by Jun Wuxian's sudden appearance.

Caixia looked at her young lady's walking posture, which was completely different from before during the day. She used to be careless and weak, but now she was full of energy and walked happily.

"Miss, you are very happy today."

Xu Qingqing grinned unabashedly: "Of course."

Caixia thought of what Chu Zhao said just now, and couldn't help reminding: "Miss, do you know that the gift that Mr. Jun gave you has a meaning? And it was on the day of Qiqiao Festival."

Xu Qingqing was stunned for a moment, looked down at the gift in her hand, and looked at Caixia in confusion, "What is the meaning?"

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

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

Jun Wuxian hadn't said that either, even just now, he didn't mention it at all.

Caixia continued: "Miss, I heard Chu Zhao say that this is a betrothal gift, and I think it is 80% true."

Xu Qingqing's heartbeat suddenly became cheerful, and she was looking forward to it. She asked again uncertainly: "Did Chu Zhao really say that?"

Caixia nodded vigorously, "It was indeed Chu Zhao who said that, but he also said that he guessed it, and I think it is probably true."

After hearing what Caixia said, Xu Qingqing lay on the bed and had no intention of sleeping. She was thinking that the hairpin might be a betrothal gift from Jun Wuxian.

But Jun Wuxian didn't say a word.

The more she thought about it, the more she couldn't sleep.

This night was destined to be a sleepless night.

The next morning, at the dining table.

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

The general's wife originally liked Jun Wuxian, no matter his appearance or temperament, she directly regarded him as a son-in-law, constantly reminding him to eat and asking about his well-being.

Jun Wuxian was free and easy, and he was not particular about details. He responded calmly to the warm hospitality of the general's wife.

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

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

A trace of doubt flashed in her eyes. Did she think too much?

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

But her mood was roughly the same, probably because of the person next to her.

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 with age.

Unconsciously, they came to the pavilion next to the lotus pond. It was very cool here because of the shade.

Xu Qingqing stood in front of the railing and gently waved the round fan in her hand.

Jun Wuxian stood beside Xu Qingqing, looking at the scenery in the lake. Before leaving, the pond was full of lotus flowers in summer, but now the lotus flowers are gone and autumn is coming soon.

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

"Hmm?" Xu Qingqing raised her head and looked at Jun Wuxian. She found that he had changed his name for her. He had never called her Qingqing before, but now he changed his name and she was 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 the folding fan and stretched out his slender fingers to her ear.

Xu Qingqing didn't know what he wanted to do, but just looked at him in confusion. It wasn't until the 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 softly, "What have I not seen about you? Just a few scars."

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

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

He regretted not saving her earlier, otherwise she wouldn't have experienced 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, and then she thought that he was comforting her. She smiled and said, "You used to say that I was too old to get married, and now you have 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 her tone and said, "Of course I did."

Jun Wuxian also tried to recall it. After being with Xu Qingqing for more than three years, he was shocked to realize that he often broke into the palace at night and went to Yixiang Palace.

He may, maybe he really said this

"People always change."

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

Jun Wuxian became interested when he heard this, "Why do you say that?"

In the past, because she saw the prince's unparalleled 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 is not stupid, what is she?

However, after she became good friends with Shen Chuwei, she no longer wanted to compete for favor, and she also found that she could live freely and comfortably without competing for favor.

She also met Jun Wuxian at that time. At that time, Jun Wuxian always appeared in night clothes, revealing only a pair of eyes.

"Let's not talk about it." It's all black history, so she won't tell Jun Wuxian.

Jun Wuxian chuckled when he heard it, and while she was not paying attention, he lifted the veil, and the light veil fell, revealing the cheek that had not been seen for a long time.

The scar on the cheek was clearly visible.

Xu Qingqing was stunned at first, and then she covered her face with both hands, fearing that he would see it. She stared at Jun Wuxian angrily and annoyed, "How can you do this?"

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

Good afternoon!
