After sending Xia Taoyuan back to the Xiangfu, Chu Xingluo returned to Prince Jing's Mansion. Recalling Xia Taoyuan's every move during the day, he couldn't help but smile. But when he entered the room and saw the figure reflected in the moonlight on the wall, his heart suddenly tightened, and the rare joy was swallowed up by the oppression brought by his uncle.
"Have you chosen an auspicious date? If you have, pick a nearby date to get married as soon as possible, so that you don't have to be distracted all day long." Xiao Feng felt a little disappointed with Chu Xingluo. He didn't want Chu Xingluo to be obsessed with love all day and miss out on important things.
Marrying Wei Zhiying as soon as possible might help him change his mind.
"Yes." Chu Xingluo was relieved when he heard his uncle say this, but he did not tell his uncle that the auspicious day he chose was Mid-Autumn Festival. He wanted to announce it after a few days.
Xiao Feng turned around and left without saying anything. He was actually very anxious. On the one hand, he had escaped for ten years but still hadn't been able to get revenge. On the other hand, his wife and children were missing, and he was afraid he would never see them again.
The moonlight was bright, Chu Xingluo was lying on the bed looking at the moon outside the window. Thinking of Xia Taoyuan, a smile appeared on his face.
Early in the morning, Qingyun brought an invitation, saying that someone from the princess's mansion had come. It was Princess Anping's birthday on the eighth day of May. The invitation also said that Miss Wei Zhiying was invited, and asked Prince Jing to go with Miss Wei.
Xia Taoyuan also received an invitation from the princess's mansion. She had to attend Princess Anping's birthday party. Only this imperial sister was closest to Chu Xingluo, and only this imperial sister was the best to Chu Xingluo. She had wanted to meet this eldest princess for a long time.
When she got engaged to Chu Xingluo, she knew that Princess Anping was also present, but she didn't have the chance to meet her at that time. She had a good impression of Princess Anping. Anyone who was good to her Luoluo was a good person to her.
Xia Taoyuan looked at her purse and thought about what gift to give to Princess Anping. She couldn't go empty-handed when the princess invited her. Besides, the princess had taken good care of Chu Xingluo, so she had to give a special gift to justify her kindness.
But she didn't know what the princess liked, so she had to ask Chu Xingluo for help. After thinking it over, she decided to go to Prince Jing's mansion. If Chu Xingluo wasn't there, she would go for a walk on the street to see if there were any new and interesting things.
Just as she made up her mind to leave, Dai'er hurried upstairs and said, "Miss, Prince Jing is here."
"Haha, I was just about to look for him and here he is." Xia Taoyuan couldn't suppress her joy.
After a while, Chu Xingluo went upstairs, and the maids left tactfully. Xia Taoyuan threw herself into Chu Xingluo's arms and said, "I was just about to go find you!"
Chu Xingluo smiled and said, "Then I am here to please you."
"Hehe, my Luo Luo is the best." Xia Taoyuan hooked her arm around Chu Xingluo's neck, "It's Princess Anping's birthday on the eighth day of May. What gift should we give her?"
"You don't need to worry about this. Just ask Long Yan to prepare it later."
Xia Taoyuan was also happy to hear this. She took Chu Xingluo's hand and shook it back and forth, asking: "Aren't you busy today?"
"There are some things I need to take care of." Chu Xingluo pondered for a moment, "Do you want to go with me?"
"If you are busy with work, wouldn't it be a joke if I go with you?" Xia Taoyuan said leisurely. She wanted to follow Chu Xingluo like a little tail. But she knew her limits. If Chu Xingluo was busy with work, she would be criticized if she followed him.
"Then I'll come in the evening!" Chu Xingluo whispered this in Xia Taoyuan's ear.
"Whatever you want!" Xia Taoyuan was happy. They chatted for a while, and then Chu Xingluo left. Before leaving, he told her that he would pick her up on the morning of the Dragon Boat Festival and take her to the south of the city to watch the dragon boat race.
Xia Taoyuan watched Chu Xingluo leave, and remembered that she had promised Wei Qing to take her out to play, so she ordered Dai'er to invite Wei Qing. Anyway, she had nothing to do today, so she might as well take the little girl out for a walk.
After a while, Wei Qing came. The little girl was very happy and her eyes were full of anticipation.
"Does your mother agree to you and I leaving the house?" Xia Taoyuan asked with a smile.
"My mother agreed. When she heard that I was going out with my sister, she agreed immediately." Wei Qing was very excited. Xia Taoyuan was also infected by her and was very happy. She packed up and went out. This time she took Cui'er and Dai'er with her. She wanted to take only one, but Dai'er kept begging beside her, wanting to go out and have a look. She had not gone out for several months since she came to the Xiangfu. Xia Taoyuan saw her looking at him eagerly, and her heart softened and she had to take her with her.
The master and his servants went straight to Jinshi Street. Xia Taoyuan went to the silver shop first. She bought some jewelry for Wei Qing, who was so moved that she almost cried. She didn't know why her sister had become a different person and no longer teased her. She just knew that she had to be nice to her sister because she was nice to her.
After coming out, Xia Taoyuan bought a bunch of snacks for a few people, such as osmanthus sugar cloud cake, and then took them shopping. Cui'er often came out and didn't think it was a big deal, but it was the first time for Wei Qing and Dai'er. The four eyes of the two were not enough to see everything, and everything they saw was new.
Walking to a place, Xia Taoyuan saw Dai'er staring at a stall selling rabbit lanterns, so she went up and bought three, one for Wei Qing and the two maids. Dai'er was so happy that she turned around several times with the rabbit lantern, and kept saying, "The rabbit lanterns are so beautiful, they will be even more beautiful when they are lit at night."
Cui'er is several years older than Dai'er, and she is not very keen on these little gadgets.
Wei Qing's face was full of anticipation, and she said happily: "Sister, I'll come to you in the evening, and we can light the rabbit lantern together, okay?"
Xia Taoyuan nodded with a smile on her face. She looked at Dai'er and Wei Qing. It was really worth it to spend a little money to make them so happy.
Cui Er watched from the side. She always thought that the young lady was different from before. Although she was nice to them before, she was rarely so close to them. She never bought things for them. She would only give them things she didn't want. And towards Wei Qing, the young lady always made fun of her before, but now it was completely different. She treated Wei Qing like a sister born from the same mother. However, she never mentioned these changes to anyone. After all, the master's affairs were not for them to discuss.
