Quick Transmigration Sweet Story, The White Moonlight Rescue Plan
Chapter 122 The Charming and Gentle Prince and His Substitute Beauty Wife (3)
Xiao Xiao looked at Li Zixuan in front of her and felt a slight pain in her heart. This must be the original owner's emotions at work.
Wen Wan lowered her eyes, no longer looking at that person. She stood quietly beside Wen Shi, waiting for him to speak.
"Nephew, what brings you back from the capital all this way?"
Li Zixuan glanced at Han Chaoning, his eyes full of meaning, but his face remained humble and polite. "A few days ago, Xiaoxiao said she wanted to try some hibiscus cake, so I brought some from the capital. I happened to be passing by here, so I thought I'd bring some for Xiaoxiao."
Upon hearing the words "Hibiscus Cake," Xiao Xiao felt a surge of inexplicable grief and indignation. It was this very fondness that had prevented the original owner from ever having children.
Who would suspect that their husband would bring them cold snacks every day after court?
Xiao Xiao tightened her grip on the handkerchief, then had her personal maid Lian'er take the food box. She replied shyly, "Thank you, Lord Li."
Li Zixuan looked over and said, "It's alright, it's just my duty."
Her voice was as gentle as a spring breeze, but the warmth in her eyes carried a hint of sadness.
The original owner once thought that Li Zixuan was worried about his frail and sickly mother, but little did he know that it was someone else.
Wen Shi looked at his future son-in-law without showing any emotion. He was indeed a learned scholar with a magnanimous spirit that surpassed that of ordinary people.
Wen Shi was initially worried that the incident between Han Chaoning and Xiao Xiao a few days ago would affect Xiao Xiao's marriage, since they had been intimate. However, he did not expect that Li Zixuan did not care.
Wen Shi was even more satisfied with Li Zixuan.
"Xiaoxiao, you've planted these peonies so beautifully," Li Zixuan said, admiring the peonies blooming vigorously in the flowerpot beside her.
Suddenly, a memory of the original owner popped into Xiao Xiao's mind.
That was at the beginning of spring.
The original owner had just returned from outside when she saw Li Zixuan sitting in the room reading a book. He was dressed in a moon-white silk robe, his hair was tied up with a bamboo hairpin, and he had a woody fragrance that was different from that of orchids and musk.
Li Zixuan slowly raised his head. Seeing that she had returned, he put down the book in his hand and said gently, "Madam always invites me to see that little fairy hill. Now that I have some free time, I wonder if Madam would still be willing to accompany me?"
The original owner blushed slightly under Li Zixuan's gaze: "Okay!"
So the two of them arrived at the hill early in the morning. They walked one after the other and climbed to the open space halfway up the hill.
The two gazed at the unknown wildflowers blooming everywhere, patch after patch, exceptionally beautiful in the afterglow of the morning sun.
The evening clouds gradually dispersed, leaving the sky a pale, clear blue. Li Zixuan's face was like a peach blossom, his posture elegant and serene, still retaining a solitary, frosty air. His pupils were lively and captivating, like crystal beads.
Li Zixuan turned his head and asked Xiaoxiao, who was following closely behind, with a smile, "Does Madam like flowers?"
The original owner stared into Li Zixuan's eyes, nodding blankly.
Li Zixuan continued, "How about I plant peonies all over the city for you, Madam?"
"Mmm!" The original owner replied, blushing.
From then on, Li Zixuan would stay in his study after court every day, studying "Miscellaneous Records of Flowers." This book recorded hundreds of thousands of kinds of flowers, including their flowering period, seed selection, soil, and so on, all in great detail.
Li Zixuan meticulously arranges the planting of peonies every day, paying close attention to how to cultivate better peony flowers, and doing everything himself.
He even went to observe and tinker with the flower beds, which he didn't usually like to visit, and even humbly asked the original owner for advice on how to grow flowers well.
The original owner thought that Li Zixuan was just like himself, someone who cherished flowers and plants, but was too busy with official duties to take care of them.
Looking at Li Zixuan like this, so serious and meticulous, I felt a little moved and touched. He actually took my joke so seriously.
When peonies are planted all over the streets of the capital, and the flowering season arrives in early April, the city is filled with peonies, stretching for dozens of miles, elegant and magnificent. Everyone who comes to the capital is amazed by this scene!
Some even jokingly called the original owner "Lady Peony"! At that moment, the original owner suddenly fell in love with peonies, a bright and beautiful bouquet that she originally disliked.
However, by chance, the original owner learned that Qin Xueyan liked peonies, and that the time when peonies bloomed all over the city happened to be Qin Xueyan's birthday.
Xiao Xiao had to admit that Li Zixuan was only this attentive when it came to Qin Xueyan's affairs!
Xiao Xiao suddenly understood a principle: if you love someone, you will be willing to change for them.
Looking at the handsome and dashing Li Zixuan in front of her, Xiao Xiao had to admit that Li Zixuan was a master!
But so what? The original owner's wish list didn't include reconciliation, so Xiao Xiao has no obligation to give anything in return.
Xiao Xiao lowered her eyes and replied truthfully, "These were just planted when I had nothing else to do, and my father helped me with them. I don't really like these brightly colored bouquets."
Li Zixuan paused slightly, but still replied with a hint of regret, "That's a real pity!" He then got up to say goodbye to Wen Shi.
Wen Shi tried to persuade him to stay several times, but Li Zixuan was determined to leave, so he had to give up.
After the two left, Wen Shi then went straight to the point with Han Chaoning: "Your Highness, you have seen Xiaoxiao's future husband. Now you can take back the things you brought."
