Wearing official uniform and walking in the market, it is inevitable to attract attention. Seeing the young girls and young wives coming and going staring at the people beside them, Qin Xiaoxiao felt inexplicably uncomfortable, and unexpectedly hid them.

, the idea of ​​not showing it to anyone.

She was startled by this sudden thought. She glanced at Jingheng secretly and met his gaze, and for a moment she felt guilty and didn't want to drag him to the clothing store next to her.

"You, you are so ostentatious dressed like this, and it makes me feel uncomfortable too. You should change your clothes." Meeting Jingheng's interested eyes, Qin Xiaoxiao said dryly: "Wait until you finish changing.

It’s better to find a place to eat.”

Jing Heng lowered his head and looked at the official uniform, and then at the ready-made clothes hanging in the shop, with a look of disgust on his face: "No, trouble."

Qin Xiaoxiao didn't care whether he was troublesome or not. His eyes wandered around the garments, and finally pointed at one of the indigo brocade robes and said to the waiter: "That's it."

Among the several pieces of ready-made clothes, only this one was made of the best materials and the style was attractive. However, the color was not what Jing Heng usually wore, but she felt it suited him as soon as she saw it.

"Okay, wait a moment, girl." The clerk is a discerning man and knew that they could afford the most expensive ready-made clothes in the shop. He hurriedly stepped forward to take off the clothes and handed them to Jing Heng respectfully with his hands on his hands.

: "Sir, I will help you change your clothes."

Jing Heng frowned, as if he was unwilling to change.

"Brother Li, try it on. If it doesn't look good, let's try something else." Qin Xiaoxiao took the brocade robe and stuffed it into his arms, pushing him towards the dressing room. Anyway, she didn't want to continue watching him wear official uniform.

The swagger has passed.

"I came out in a hurry this time. I didn't bring any money." Jing Heng said these words slowly, then changed hands and was about to return the clothes to the clerk.

Qin Xiaoxiao was anxious and held his hand: "I brought it, you can put it on without worry."

Jing Heng's lips curled up and he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is this brocade robe a gift from you?"

Qin Xiaoxiao felt that she had chosen the brocade robe and given the money. It was not wrong to say it was a gift for him, so she nodded: "You gave me so many clothes before, but I have never given them to you.

Let’s just forget about this.”

Since she was three years old, most of her clothes, shoes and socks were prepared and delivered by Brother Li. In comparison, this indigo brocade robe is really nothing.

"You don't have to force me, as long as it's from you." Jing Heng was in a good mood. He left these words and went to the dressing room under the guidance of the waiter.

Qin Xiaoxiao froze in place until the waiter came out. She raised her hand and patted her face, exhaling secretly.

Doesn't it take long to change clothes? Jing Heng came out after a while. Unexpectedly, this indigo brocade robe unexpectedly fit him perfectly, highlighting his tall and straight figure perfectly. Even the color made him calmer.

"Brother Li, I'm afraid His Highness won't be able to recognize you when you return home wearing this outfit." Qin Xiaoxiao nodded with satisfaction, not forgetting to praise herself: "I have really good taste!"

Jing Heng rarely made fun of her? He nodded slightly: "It's very good, I like it very much!"

It was so satisfying to be liked by the other person with the gift you gave. Qin Xiaoxiao felt happy? She decisively took out two taels of silver and handed it to the clerk, then took the packed official uniform and left the tailor with Jingheng.

shop.

After changing his clothes, the eyes on Jingheng were reduced. Qin Xiaoxiao was very satisfied. When they saw the meal, the two stopped wandering around and came to a restaurant where they used to eat.

This restaurant is very secluded. Non- dignitaries are not allowed to enter. Therefore, the environment inside is elegant and pleasant. It is different from the hustle and bustle of ordinary restaurants. It is a good place to meet friends for intimate conversations.

The two of them couldn't eat much, so they ordered three dishes and a snack. While waiting for the food, Qin Xiaoxiao explained in detail the manuscript she had compiled on the law of household marriage, and asked Jing Heng for his opinion.

"Xiaoxiao, the household marriage law has a profound impact. Don't rush into it." Jing Heng looked serious, obviously seeing the main problem: "It is better to proceed step by step."

Qin Xiaoxiao's eyes dimmed and she unconsciously pulled a strand of hair on her forehead: "This is the first time in my life that I desperately want to achieve this, so I couldn't help but write down all my thoughts.

I also know that it is very difficult, and I may not get results in this life..."

Jing Heng opened her fingers and freed the curled forehead hair that was pulled by it: "It's not as difficult as you said. It's just that we need an opportunity to change the household marriage law, at least to get the old stubborn in the court.

See the merits of the new household marriage law.”

Qin Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up. This coincided with what she was thinking: "Brother Li, what do you think this opportunity is?"

Jing Heng looked at her and said slowly: "I don't know."

Qin Xiaoxiao, full of expectations: "..."

"Brother Li, you have become bad~" She looked at him sadly, lying on the table listlessly, then turned her face and ignored him.

Jing Heng looked amused and couldn't help but pinch her angry face: "When you teased me at the inn, why didn't you say you were bad?"

When Qin Xiaoxiao heard this, she remembered her embarrassment, and her face started to look strange again. She sat up straight, slapped his hand away and glared: "What's the matter? You taught me a lesson first, and then I teased you."

of."

Jing Heng stared into her eyes and asked quietly: "Are you just teasing me?"

Qin Xiaoxiao's heart skipped a beat and she felt a little guilty: "Of course I'm just teasing you, I didn't promise you anything."

Jing Heng refused to let her go and gently pinched her chin to prevent her from escaping: "But I take it seriously... If you and I get married, I will give you a world where you can do whatever you want."

Qin Xiaoxiao's heart beat unsatisfactoryly again, and he stammered: "I, I haven't thought about it yet, why don't you wait a little longer?"

It had to be said that Jingheng's promise made her heart move shamefully. She was used to all kinds of constraints after a woman got married, and she hoped in her heart that she could retain some freedom in her marriage.

Her family had previously hoped that she would hire a husband. Although she knew that the husband she hired might not be satisfactory, but thinking that she would still live in her own home after marriage and not have to adapt to a strange environment again, and that she could still support her parents until they grow old, she agreed without much thought.

.

Now that Jing Heng's promise has freed her from such worries, it's hard for her not to be tempted. Especially since the two of them grew up together, she knows very well what kind of person he is, and she doesn't have to worry about being unkind and falling into the trap of

Such a miserable situation as my eldest cousin.

But what she said to Princess Protector last time also came from her heart. Before she was sure about her feelings for Jingheng, she couldn't make a hasty decision, lest she treat the relationship between brother and sister as a man and a woman.

Jing Heng's feelings were betrayed.

Jing Heng stared at her, his slightly raised eyebrows showing a hint of strength: "I've been waiting for half a year, and I don't want to wait any longer."

Qin Xiaoxiao felt nervous: Are you giving up?

Also, based on Brother Li's appearance, talent and status, as long as he is willing, many noble girls are willing to marry him. If he can wait for her for half a year for a word, he cannot wait blindly forever.

Just when she was thinking wildly and feeling upset, she heard Jing Heng continue to say: "Forget it, because you are not smart enough, I will give you another month. After one month, if you are still hesitant,

I will..."

At this point, he suddenly paused, as if he didn't know what to do next.

Qin Xiaoxiao, who was originally annoyed by the sentence "You're not smart enough", forgot to be angry for a moment, stared at the person who was halfway speaking and asked, "What are you talking about?"

Jing Heng rubbed her head, with a deep smile in his eyes: "I informed my mother and sent a matchmaker to visit."

This girl is used to pretending to be stupid, not taking advantage of the opportunity to force her, and letting her temper lead her. When will he get a wife?

"Send a matchmaker to the door..." Qin Xiaoxiao murmured and repeated his words, her face gradually turned red, and she blurted out: "My father may not want you as his son-in-law!"

After saying that, she almost bit the tip of her tongue: Could it be that she had made a decision in her heart a long time ago, otherwise how could she have kept it in her heart that her father did not want Brother Li as his son-in-law?

Jing Heng didn't know what she was thinking, so he asked puzzledly: "Xiaoxiao, why don't you think about Uncle Qin? Have I ever offended Uncle Qin?"

He had always known that Qin Shan didn't treat him very much. Even if there was no difference on the surface, he could still feel that Qin Shan's attitude towards him was very different from Mr. Qin's.

"You did offend my father. It happened a long time ago. Think about it yourself." Qin Xiaoxiao looked at him narrowly, so as not to tell him the truth directly.

What happened a long time ago? Jing Heng frowned and thought carefully, searching for all the memories related to Qinshan in his mind, but found nothing. He really didn't remember it.

Seeing this, Qin Xiaoxiao couldn't help but remind: "Brother Li, I don't remember how we met, do you still remember?"

Jing Heng came back to his senses and smiled slightly: "Of course I remember that when you were less than four years old, you were selling dates with Uncle Qin at the gate of Le'an City. I happened to pass by there and heard your cries."

Having said this, he raised Qin Xiaoxiao's chin and looked at her neck and throat, puzzled: "Your neck is not thicker than others, and your throat is no different from ordinary people. How come you can scream like that at such a young age?"

Loud.”

She originally expected to hear compliments such as "The new orioles are coming out of the valley" and "The sound moves Liang Chen", but Qin Xiaoxiao never expected that this guy thought she had a loud voice.

This gap was so big that she couldn't accept it for a moment and said angrily: "Since you think my loud voice has disturbed your Mr. Jing, why did you buy me from my father? Do you think your ears are too good?

?”

Jing Heng ignored the little girl's emotions, caught the key sentence in the middle, and said incredulously: "Is it because I want to buy you that I pissed off Uncle Qin?"

Qin Xiaoxiao felt tired and turned away, not wanting to talk to this guy anymore. She was afraid that she would be pissed to death.

When Jing Heng saw this, he thought she had acquiesced in his guess, and couldn't help frowning and thinking about a solution.

In fact, with his status, he doesn't need to care too much about Qin Shan's opinion of him. Just like he knew that Qin Shan didn't like him these years and didn't want him to have too much contact with Qin Xiaoxiao. He could ignore Qin Shan's displeasure and show up to him.

Pricking his eyes in front of him.

But Qin Xiaoxiao is different. He really wants to marry her. Once they get married, he will not only love and respect her, but also her relatives and will never do anything to overwhelm others.

.

Thinking that he had waited for half a year and finally waited for the little girl to relent, only to find that the real obstacle was Uncle Qin, whom he had unintentionally offended. Jing Heng was also very tired and didn't know how to solve it for a while.

The two of them were facing each other, each thinking about their own thoughts, and the private room was eerily quiet.

After a while, the waiter came in with dishes and snacks.

Qin Xiaoxiao smelled the aroma and gradually felt hungry. She ignored Jing Heng, picked up her chopsticks and started eating.

As she ate, she found that there were more and more dishes in the bowl. She struggled for a while, and finally chose to take revenge on Jingheng, eating all the dishes he had put in, leaving him with nothing to eat, and then...successfully finished eating.

.

At first, Jingheng thought that she had traveled all day and didn't eat anything on the carriage, so he didn't stop her when he saw that she was eating happily. When he realized that most of the dishes and snacks had been fed into her stomach, he wanted to stop her.
