A Nighttime Talk About Marriage Let me know if you have any
nly appeared behind me today" I asked cautiously.Jiang Qiyun narrowed his eyes, leaning slightly forward to meet me face-to-face, our gazes locked, noses nearly touching."Mu Xiaoqiao, didn't I tell yo...My fellow disciple looked at me with piercing eyes, I didn't dare to hide anything from him, so I could only make up an excuse and run away.
Anyway, said after tomorrow, then after tomorrow!
I should prepare some clothes for Mu Wanchen, right My junior wife hasn't prepared any formal attire for him, only casual styles. As a strict person like Senior Brother Jun, he might have a bad first impression of him.
When I thought of this problem, I immediately grabbed my bag and ran to the nearest shopping mall.
This was my first time buying men's clothing, and when the sales assistant asked me for my size, I was completely clueless.
I raised my hand and made a circle, trying to recall the pose I had when hugging him, so that the sales assistant could take measurements.
The salesgirls burst into laughter. "You're not being very thoughtful buying a gift for your boyfriend! How are we supposed to know the exact size if you just gesture Do you at least know his height and weight"
I don't know that either...
The sales assistant kindly said, "You're not meeting someone you met online, are you When you meet someone online, don't buy something so expensive. You don't want them to think you're rich and have bad intentions towards you."
"No, no, it's not meeting online friends, but meeting, meeting the parents! So whatever is most expensive and best, bring it all out!" I said awkwardly.
The saleswoman's face lit up with understanding, but then she asked in a puzzled tone, "Since you've met the parents, don't you even know his height, weight, or clothing size"
This... I've only known him for a month, and most of the time I was just stunned. Where would I have the time to research this kind of thing
"He's probably... about six foot three" I gestured with my hand.
"I can only try to feel it and gesture. Can you guys give me some that are about the same size If not, I'll come back and exchange them." I said helplessly.
Mu Wanchen's height and figure are the kind that belong to a supermodel, not the kind that is thin. I really don't know what he eats to grow like this. To make sure of the feel, I even went to a men's clothing store to hug a fake male model.
The salesgirl was laughing so hard that she was on the floor.
"This, this waist is too thin, a bit wider than this one." I blushed and pointed at the mannequin.
"Well...poof..." The salesgirl, trying hard to stifle a laugh, went to get a bigger size.
The store manager looked at me with a meaningful gaze and smiled, "This is the first time I've seen someone buy gifts for their boyfriend like this, so sweet."
Oh my god, sweet
A man's formal attire seems to just be a dress shirt and trousers. A long-sleeved shirt is fine in this weather, but a coat is a bit much.
Actually, at my house, we mostly wear loose-fitting Chinese clothing. But it seems more casual. I see Master Mu wearing a suit when he works, and Brother Jun does too. Most of the time when they go out, they wear shirts and trousers.
After agonizing over it for a long time, I finally bought a few sets of full equipment.
I don't have that much money, it was all transferred to me by my second senior brother. It's already a habit for me to receive things from my senior brothers with empty hands.
Anyway, too many lice don't itch, and too much debt isn't a worry, just keep owing it.
The clothes had been urgently dry-cleaned and ironed at the commercial center. I carried several large bags, like a thief, carefully tiptoeing back to the courtyard through the doorway.
In the little courtyard, I'm the only one living here now. The black cat saw me and rushed to the carved pillar above the pavilion, calling out "Meow~Meow~"
All things, all beings, I truly believe now, everything has a spirit.
When Mu Wanchen pulled me out of the snake pit, the vines that covered the entire ground seemed like his faithful servants.
The "little black" in front of me is the same, I didn't get rid of it, and I kept it at home. It is closest to me.
Everyone says cats are aloof and difficult to raise, but Xiao Hei is still quite well-behaved. He knows to greet people when he sees them.
Back in the room, she hid the things she bought for Mu Wanchen in the closet and then turned to take a shower.
I got used to leaving my clothes in the laundry basket at home whenever I changed. My elder sisters would collect and wash them.
When I finished showering and came out of the small bathroom, I saw Fifth Sister putting clean clothes into the wardrobe.
"Huh What's this" Fifth Senior Sister saw the pile of handbags at once.
"AAAAAAA! It's nothing!" I rushed forward to block her.
Fifth Sister said with a tinge of displeasure, "Little Sister, you've been acting strange these past few days. What have you been up to"
"That, Senior Sister... This is something I bought for someone else, please don't look," I pleaded.
She raised an eyebrow: "For whom"
"Cough... you'll know in two days..." I closed the closet door.
Fifth Senior Sister narrowed her eyes and said, "Little Junior Sister, are you in love I told you you've been acting mysteriously lately... You can't get up in the morning and can't sleep at night. There's even a hickey on your neck, hmph."
My dear sister...
"Fifth Senior Sister, you're the most virtuous, gentle, diligent, and considerate... Please keep this a secret for me, okay I beg you!" I pleaded with clasped hands.
"Why the secrecy" Fifth Sister looked innocent. "With so many of us, whenever someone starts dating, they have to bring their partner to meet everyone in the family. It's impossible to hide it, especially when there's such a fiery spark between you two."
She pointed to the red mark on my Tianzhu acupoint.
My face flushed, seeing the lunchbox that my senior sister brought to the table. I whispered, "Thank you, Senior Sister. I want to wait until Brother Jun arrives before slowly introducing myself to everyone else. If a bunch of people suddenly surround me, I'll be very embarrassed... Please, Senior Sister, keep it a secret for me!"
Fifth Senior Sister nodded reluctantly: "You can't mess around, alright Although society is more open now, our family has strict rules. If you get in the car first and then buy a ticket, your impression points will already be deducted. Especially Brother Jun, he strictly forbids us from bringing any female companions back overnight."
My goodness, this waterfall of sweat... Mu Wanchen has been staying here for two nights now. If Jun shidi finds out, I'm definitely going to be punished with kneeling.
"Why are you so strictly forbidden Men get married when they are old enough, and women get married too. Isn't this normal interaction..." I whispered.
Fifth Senior Sister smiled and said, "Marriage, love affairs, it all doesn't matter. Junior Brother Jun doesn't care about these private matters, but he can't let them negatively affect you and Junior Sister Yue. So Junior Brother Jun strictly forbids... Of course, if you get married then there's no problem, your relationship is confirmed anyway."
So that's how it is, Senior Brother truly cares more than my father.
Senior Sister Five told me to leave after eating while it was still hot. I waited for Mu Wanchen to appear before I opened the lunchbox and said, “Come eat, then we'll try on clothes.”
"Trying on clothes" he said, a little puzzled.
"It's always good to be formal when meeting for the first time, isn't it" I handed him my chopsticks.
Mu Wanchen sat at the table and lifted his mask with his hand.
"Well, you're a sight for sore eyes," I teased him.
His deep-set eyes glinted as he fixed me with a piercing stare and asked, "Talking about yourself"aves, swirling toward us menacingly.I silently recited the Fengdu Bao, and prayed to Lord Shen Tu and Yu Lei, the two venerable deities of the underworld. A gate leading to the prison for evil spirit...
