Cang Yue uttered an "ah" and loudly rejected it:

"How could I hit someone!

I just want to borrow some money from you to buy gifts for the clan leader and his family."

Xu Junjun suddenly realized:

“Why not say it earlier?

I'll get you as much as you need."

Xu Junjun took out the banknotes from her pocket. Her small treasury was full, so she had no pressure to give it to Cangyue.

Cangyue had no idea about silver and didn't know how much it would cost to buy those things. After hesitating for a moment, he asked Xu Junjun for advice.

"Junjun, you have more experience than me. Please calculate how much silver it will cost to buy the gift."

Thinking of the food Xu Junjun took her to taste that day, Cang Yue added:

"These gifts are brought back to show the tribe members something new. They don't need to be expensive, just something new and interesting."

Xu Junjun was speechless after hearing this and took back the hand that was about to take out the banknote:

“Forget it, when are you going to buy it?

I go with you. "

Xu Junjun was really worried about her, who was as pure as paper, going out with hundreds of taels of silver notes. He was afraid that she would not be able to buy the things and end up being cheated.

Cang Yue's eyes lit up:

"Okay, you'll go with me tomorrow.

I originally planned to buy it today, but when I came to your room this morning, your maid said you were out with the Regent.

It’s too late today, so I’d better go out early tomorrow morning.

I'll ask Cang Qing to go with me tomorrow to help with some small things I need to buy."

Xu Junjun has no objection:

"as long as you are happy."

It just so happened that she was going out of the house to meet Chen Yu tomorrow. After accompanying Cangyue and his sister to buy things, she would go to Chen Yu's residence to give him the letter and ask him to send someone to deliver it back to the Great Sage.

After sending Cangyue away, Xu Junjun regained some consciousness and went to the pharmacy next door to continue refining medicine.

After picking out some herbs and dividing them according to weight, Xu Junjun was immersed in the atmosphere of refining medicine. Two hours had passed unknowingly. The maid also walked into the room lightly and carefully lit the candle.

When she put the freshly prepared pills into the wooden box and looked up, she found that a tall man was leaning against the door with his arms folded, staring at her gently.

“When did you arrive?

Why is there no sound?"

Xu Junjun curled her fingertips and pretended to be calm when asking the question, but her red ears still revealed her true reaction.

A man who had been standing there for half an hour glanced at her red earlobe and said with a curled lip:

"I just arrived a short time ago, and seeing that you were working so hard, I didn't bother you."

Putting down his arm, Jun Xiaochen took a few steps forward, took her hand, looked at the tiny scratches on her fingertips, and frowned:

"Does it hurt?"

Jun Xiaochen's voice was too gentle. Xu Junjun felt her face flush and her whole body felt uncomfortable. She pulled her fingers back forcefully.

"But I was scratched by the herbs, and there was no bleeding. How could it hurt?"

Jun Xiaochen disagreed and took her hand again, looking at the marks on it with a frown on his face.

"Wait a minute, wash your hands and apply the medicine."

Jun Xiaochen's tone brooked no room for argument. Xu Junjun wanted to say he was making a big deal out of nothing, but when she met his cold eyes, she immediately swallowed her words and nodded seriously.

"Okay, apply the medicine before going to bed later."

Jun Xiaochen saw the perfunctory look in her eyes, but did not say anything. He just silently took her hand and turned to walk out of the pharmacy.

It was dark long ago. When I walked out of the yard, the exquisite octagonal lamps illuminated the corridor brightly and clearly.

The long leaves of the banana trees planted under the corridor swayed gently in the night breeze, looking lush and green.

"Have dinner first. After dinner, I'll apply medicine for you."

Xu Junjun was enjoying the cool breeze on her face, but Jun Xiaochen's words instantly brought her back to her senses.

After hearing what he said, Xu Junjun said "oh" but did not refute.

She was sure that Jun Xiaochen said this because he realized that she didn't want to take the medicine.

It’s always a good feeling to be cared for by others. Xu Junjun raised the corners of his mouth even higher, and he couldn’t hide the joy in his eyes.

At Jun Xiaochen's request, I had a light meal in the evening.

The flavors are light, but the dishes are anything but light.

The combination of meat and vegetables tasted and looked great, and Xu Junjun finished two bowls of rice without realizing it.

As soon as she put down her chopsticks, Xu Junjun felt a little full. She pulled Jun Xiaochen to help her digest the food. After breaking a light sweat, she went back to her room to take a shower and change clothes.

Jun Xiaochen had been waiting for her, and when she came out from behind the screen with wet long hair, his eyes tightened.

"come over."

Jun Xiaochen took the handkerchief and waved to the woman with clear eyes and eyebrows.

Xu Junjun was wearing a light white long dress and had loose black hair. She walked over confidently, like a white camellia in full bloom, and sat directly in front of Jun Xiaochen.

The camellia fell beside him, and the tip of his nose was filled with the faint fragrance of the woman. Jun Xiaochen stretched out his big hand and gathered her long black hair into his handkerchief.

Xu Junjun enjoyed the man's service very much.

Feeling the force of his scalp being gently pulled, Xu Junjun sighed and kindly reminded:

"I'm not a porcelain doll, you can use appropriate force."

Jun Xiaochen raised his eyebrows slightly, raised his hand and tapped Xu Junjun's forehead lightly:

"Shut up."

Xu Junjun stopped talking, tilted her head, and played with the jade pendant on Jun Xiaochen's waist.

After wiping her long black hair dry, Jun Xiaochen glanced at her fair little hands and glanced at the black jade in her hand.

"like?"

Before Xu Junjun could speak, Jun Xiaochen took off the jade pendant and bent over to tie the black jade around her waist:

"This piece of jade was given by the emperor and cannot be pawned."

Knowing Xu Junjun too well, Jun Xiaochen was afraid that she would pawn this thing again in a fit of rage, so he reminded her in advance.

Xu Junjun lowered her head to look at her waist, curled her lips, and said stubbornly:

"Who said I'm going to be one?"

However, looking at this piece of black jade, Xu Junjun thought of another thing.

She stood up and retrieved a box from her dressing table. She opened it in front of Jun Xiaochen and pointed to the ring pendant inside, which was full of water. She looked at Jun Xiaochen:

"He put this thing on my bedside without saying a word.

Aren't you afraid that I'll take the jade pendant and run away?"

Jun Xiaochen looked in the direction of her fingertips, his eyes moving slightly:

“It was originally given to you, so if you take it, you take it.

It’s just a little gadget.”

Xu Junjun almost spit out blood:

"You call this a gadget, my Lord, you're a bit of a spendthrift."

Jun Xiaochen's eyes were filled with smiles:

“If you think I’m a spendthrift, you can control me in the future.

I'll have the housekeeper bring the account book tomorrow. Would you be so kind as to accept it?"

Xu Junjun glanced at him:

"You wish, I won't accept it!

Before I decide to marry you, I won't even take a look at the account books of your palace!

And this, take it back too."

Putting the jade pendant back into Jun Xiaochen's arms, Xu Junjun added crisply:

"Don't fool me, don't think I can't see that this thing means a lot to you.

We are just in love, please don't give me any gifts related to family continuation.

So that we don’t end up breaking up and I can’t afford to pay it back if something goes wrong.”

Jun Xiaochen's expression remained unchanged as he placed the jade pendant in her palm again:

“I have no right to take back the gift I gave.

I gave it to you, so it's yours. Even if you drop it now, I won't feel bad. "

Seeing that Xu Junjun was about to speak, Jun Xiaochen leaned forward and directly blocked her lips. He kissed her until she was breathless, then he pulled away and asked in a hoarse voice:

"How about it? Do you want to return it?"
