Deep Palace Pet Peach Blossom Flawless
Chapter 680 Preparing for the Banquet
Another reason Xue Qingwu decided to go to the banquet was, of course, to confirm some things and find Zhou Xuheng. She couldn't let someone else give up the opportunity that was so close to her and within her reach.
The banquet was to be held in three days. Xue Qingwu watched coldly as Xue's mother jumped up and down, of course she was worried about her little daughter, and had no time to care about another daughter who was about to attend the banquet.
Especially on the day before the banquet, Xue Qinglai and her mother had a fierce argument. Xue's mother, of course, took a tough stance, firmly opposing Xue Qinglai and that boy from an ordinary family, and tried to persuade Xue Qinglai, "What future can that poor boy from an ordinary family have? If you are together, you won't be able to afford food or clothes. Besides, you are so far away from our home. If anything happens to you, we won't be able to catch up! And if you get bullied during childbirth and confinement, your family won't be able to touch you! In short, you will not be happy if you follow him in the future!"
Xue Qinglai didn't give in at all. "The poor boy in your eyes just doesn't have the status of a noble family and can't bring benefits to the Xue family's marriage. In fact, after we got together, he has been very capable and now runs a small company on his own. When I work with him, it's impossible for me to worry about food and clothing. As for being bullied because you live far away from home, and not being happy when you marry far away, I want to ask you, mother, is my second sister married close by? Can she reach her parents' home in no time? My second brother-in-law bullied you right in the face! Did you intervene? It was for the sake of your parents' face and the reputation of the head of the family that you ignored and made my second sister endure it! Is my second sister happy? Do you care? Have you asked? Have you intervened?"
"you!"
Mother Xue was so angry that her chest kept heaving. "Your second sister is different! That incident she caused back then... if you think about it carefully, it was your second brother-in-law who suffered the loss! Besides, the marriage between the two families is a good omen, how can they easily talk about divorce? Not to mention that they have two children! In short, you are different from your second sister. Don't even think about marrying so far away! What's the difference between this and moving across town? I don't agree! Your father won't agree either! Break up with that kid right now!"
The mother and daughter eventually parted ways unhappily.
On this day, Xue Qingwu asked someone from the clothing store to deliver her clothes and do her makeup and styling. Qianyifang, which only served aristocratic families, brought five dresses according to Xue Qingwu's size. When Xue Qingwu saw the five dresses, she picked out a pure white dress without hesitation and said, "This one will be eliminated first."
Xue Qingwu carefully observed the remaining dresses again: "This red one is a bit mature, so I'll throw it out. This yellow one is too conspicuous, but it looks very youthful and beautiful, so I'll throw it out. This black one has a good color combination, but it has no sleeves, so I'll throw it out! I'd better keep this smoky green dress! It suits my age and temperament!"
When Xue Qingwu came out after changing into the dress, A Tao, A Xing, and Sister Zhang who delivered the dress were all stunned. The smoky green and mist-like dress amazed everyone's eyes.
The smoky green gown was modeled after ancient palace attire, stripped of complexity and simplified, with patterns resembling flowers, mist, and green grass. The sleeves were made of thin, misty green gauze, with colorful ribbons wrapped around them, brimming with ancient charm. The skirt was cinched at the waist, making Xue Qingwu's slender waist appear even more noticeable. The entire skirt cascaded, shimmering as she moved, a breathtaking beauty. Xue Qingwu's shoulders seemed as if they were carved, her waist was as slender as a slender figure, her skin was as white as cream, and her aura was as elegant as an orchid. She looked as if she had stepped out of an ancient painting.
Ah Tao was stunned. She had never seen her Third Young Miss so gorgeously dressed and stunningly beautiful. "Miss... you are so beautiful! You combed your bangs up, revealing your forehead, and your beauty is fully displayed! And you took off your glasses! Miss..."
The emerald-blue palace dress, adorned with floral patterns, was both delicate and pure, perfectly suiting Xue Qingwu's age and temperament. Her long, black hair was simply tied back, the rest cascading down her neck. A small emerald-green gem dangled from her forehead, adding a touch of embellishment. A hollowed-out golden hairpin with a flying phoenix ornament adorned her hair. As Xue Qingwu's lotus steps shone, her hair swayed gently, creating a breathtakingly graceful and elegant scene. The entire room was illuminated with a radiant light.
Xue Qingwu was also quite satisfied with the dress, but her ankle-length black hair was too eye-catching. She could only tie her hair up and be low-key. It would not be too late to find someone at the banquet.
