In the fantasy world, all the people I met were beauties.

"It's so beautiful here!" Xu Luyou trotted over in surprise, her pink skirt dancing like a butterfly on the bluestone road.

She leaned over and sniffed an early-blooming plum blossom. "It's much more exquisite than the one in my backyard."

Li Zimo put his arms around her from behind, resting his chin on the top of her head. "This is your home now, too. If you like, come sit here often."

Xu Luyou turned around and pointed a finger at his chest. "Didn't someone say they were just 'staying for a while'? Why did they tidy up the yard so meticulously?"

Li Zimo naturally couldn't tell her that these were all arranged by Wen Wan'er.

"Because..." Li Zimo grabbed her fingers and kissed them lightly on the lips, "I thought I would bring you here one day."

The sunlight shines through the plum branches, casting mottled shadows on the two people.

Xu Luyou felt a surge of emotion in his heart and was about to say something when his stomach growled in protest.

Li Zimo couldn't help laughing: "Let's go have some snacks first, and then I'll take you to Jinxiufang?"

"Jinxiufang?" Xu Luyou's eyes lit up. "That's the best clothing store in Silver Moon City!"

Half an hour later, the two were walking on the busy street.

Xu Luyou changed into a goose yellow skirt, and the jade earrings in her hair swayed gently with her steps.

She held Li Zimo's arm and looked around curiously.

"Grandpa always said the streets were dangerous and rarely let me go out," she muttered softly. "Now I'm a Martial King, who dares to bully me?"

Li Zimo smiled and pinched her nose: "Ms. Xu is so powerful."

The two of them first went to Fumanlou to order a few tables of food and wine, and then came to Jinxiufang.

The proprietress of Jinxiufang was a middle-aged woman with a charming demeanor. She greeted them warmly upon seeing them enter:

"What does this young lady need? We have just received a batch of brocade, which is perfect for this young lady's temperament."

Xu Luyou was dazzled by the dazzling array of fabrics, and his fingers lingered on a piece of moon-white soft silk.

"Try this one." Li Zimo took off a red crabapple dress. "Red is a festive color for a wedding."

In the dressing room, Xu Luyou smoothed out the wrinkles on her skirt, and her cheeks were three points brighter than the color of the skirt.

The self in the mirror is so bright and beautiful, how can there be any trace of the little girl protected by her grandfather?

"This dress looks really good on you, young lady!" the proprietress praised sincerely. "Young master, you have good taste."

Li Zimo looked at her with burning eyes, took out a bulging purse and placed it on the counter: "Buy a few more sets of daily wear, and use the best materials."

When leaving Jinxiufang, Xu Luyou was holding several packages in his arms and complained repeatedly: "I bought too much! This one piece is enough for an average family to spend for half a year!"

"My wife deserves the best." Li Zimo took the package from her hand and kissed her lips.

Xu Luyou looked around with a red face, afraid of being seen, but she couldn't hide the smile on her lips.

The two came to Fumanlou again.

The shopkeeper came forward to greet Li Zimo as soon as he saw him. "Mr. Li, the banquet you requested is ready and can be served anytime."

"For dinner." Li Zimo handed over a list, "Add these dishes."

Xu Luyou took a quick look and found that there were the Drunken Immortal Duck and Honey-glazed Fire Fang, which were his grandfather's favorite foods that he had just mentioned. His heart couldn't help but warm.

At noon, they stopped at a teahouse to rest.

The private room on the second floor has a wide view, and you can see the golden roof of the Mercenary Guild Hall in the distance glittering in the sun.

"Try this." Li Zimo pushed a plate of crystal-clear cake in front of her. "It's Tianxianglou's signature dessert."

Xu Luyou took a bite, and the sweet taste melted on his tongue.

She narrowed her eyes in satisfaction, and suddenly seemed to remember something and asked, "Where did you get so much money?"

Li Zimo smiled without saying anything, and took out another brocade box as if by magic.

"Send again?" Xu Luyou's eyes widened. "Didn't we just... this morning..."

When I opened the box, I found a pair of dragon and phoenix jade pendants inside. The jade was smooth and the carving was exquisite.

"Wedding pendant." Li Zimo took out the phoenix pendant and tied it around her waist. "One for me, one for you."

Xu Luyou stroked the jade pendant, and suddenly his eyes turned red: "Li Zimo, why are you so nice to me?"

"Silly girl." He sighed softly and held her in his arms, "Because you are you."

The noisy sounds of the market came from outside the window, with the shouts of vendors and the laughter of children intertwined.

Xu Luyou leaned on his shoulder and suddenly felt that this ordinary atmosphere was more precious than any fairyland.

On their way back, they met an old man selling candy figures on the street corner.

Li Zimo bought one in the shape of a little rabbit and handed it to Xu Luyou.

"I'm not a child anymore." She said this, but took it and licked it, her eyes squinting because of the sweetness.

The old man smiled and said, "You are so lucky, young lady. Your husband is so considerate."

Xu Luyou lowered her head shyly, but heard Li Zimo ask, "Father, are there any good wedding shops around here?"

"Go two blocks ahead and you'll find Wang Po's Wedding Shop, which has the most everything." The old man pointed in the direction, "That's where I bought my grandson's big red wedding candles."

So their shopping list was expanded to include wedding candles, red silk and wedding candies.

When I returned to the courtyard, the sun was already setting.

In the courtyard, the old man was sitting around a stone table with three white-haired old men. The table was filled with wine and food sent by Fumanlou.

When the two came back, the old man immediately yelled, "Where have you been, you little brat? The guests are here!"

"Brother Xu, this is your grandson-in-law?" A thin old man looked at Li Zimo, "He looks quite handsome."

Another fat old man smiled and said, "Xiaoluyou has grown up. The last time I saw you, you were still a little girl!"

Xu Luyou was so embarrassed that she hid behind Li Zimo, with only half of her head showing.

Li Zimo saluted calmly: "Junior Li Zimo, greetings to the seniors."

"Don't call me senior, it's strange!" The old man opened a jar of wine and said, "Come on, let's have three drinks first!"

After three rounds of drinks, the atmosphere became lively.

The fat old man patted his belly and said, "Old Xu, you finally married off your precious granddaughter! That annoying girl at home is making so much noise that it hurts my ears."

"Why don't you just marry my grandson-in-law!" The old man's face was flushed. "I have already thought of the betrothal gifts."

His eyes rolled, "How about that jar of thousand-year-old spirit wine?"

Xu Luyou stamped his feet anxiously: "Grandpa! What are you talking about!"

The crowd roared with laughter.

The thin old man stroked his beard and said, "The girl knows how to protect her husband. Good thing!"

As the night deepened, several old men said goodbye drunkenly.

The old man also yawned and returned to the small building next door. Before leaving, he winked at Li Zimo and said, "Take it easy. Young people should learn to be restrained..."

The yard finally became quiet.

Xu Luyou was helping to clean up the dishes when he was suddenly hugged from behind by Li Zimo.

"Are you tired?" he asked in a low voice, his warm breath brushing against her ear.

Xu Luyou shook her head and leaned into his arms: "I'm just a little nervous... After all, tonight is our wedding..."

Li Zimo chuckled and turned her to face him: "Do you regret it?"

"No!" she hastily denied, adding softly, "I'm just... a little worried that I won't be able to do it well..."

"Silly girl." Li Zimo kissed the top of her head, "Just be yourself."

In the moonlight, the two hugging figures were cast on the bluestone slabs, blending into one.

The sound of night watchmen can be heard in the distance, and the night wind brings a faint fragrance of flowers.
