BXBX NOVEL Chapter 50 - 50 Untitled
A middle-aged woman’s voice came from outside the door. Her tone was cautious and she was afraid to make the guest in the room unhappy.
“Wait a moment.”
Su Qing said indifferently as she stood up from the bath barrel. Water flowed down her smooth skin. The original owner was too thin. Even though she had eaten for a few days, her body was still emaciated.
!!
Su Qing put on his poorly-sewn coat and opened the door. A middle-aged woman in a dark-colored dress was standing outside, holding two dresses of beautiful colors in her hands.
Su Qing took the dress and closed the door. The woman didn’t even have the chance to say a word. She frowned at the closed door. This lady was cold-blooded and didn’t give her any face.
She didn’t manage to get any information from him, so the woman left unwillingly.
Su Qing returned to the house and saw Ji Xiaoying curled up in the bath barrel like a frightened little rabbit. She nervously protected her chest. When she saw the dress in Su Qing’s hand, Ji Xiaoying’s eyes widened in shock.
“Sister, this dress is so beautiful! It must be very expensive, we can’t take such an expensive thing from him.”
Although Ji Xiaoying liked these two dresses very much, she did not like to take advantage of others. She understood that she should not take a reward without doing anything.
Su Qing looked at the dresses in his hands. One of them was a light pink that made her look girly, while the other was a light green. Although the color was cool, it was very elegant.
She raised her head and asked Ji Xiaoying,
“Do you like it?”
Ji Xiaoying nodded, then immediately shook her head.
“We can’t take it even if we like it. It’s too expensive. How can we return it?”
“If you like it, then keep it. I have money now.”
Su Qing took out the five hundred tael note. It felt great to be rich, even his words were firm.
“That’s your money.”
Ji Xiaoying still shook her head seriously.
“I can’t spend your money.”
Su Qing did not expect Ji Xiaoying to be so principled. Her pretty face darkened as she said to Ji Xiaoying, “I’ll be angry if you don’t wear it.”
“Then I’ll wear it.”
Seeing that Su Qing was getting upset, Ji Xiaoying quickly nodded. Her little face was flushed red from the hot water, like a beautiful red apple. Her big black eyes were even more watery, and she was simply a little beauty.
Su Qing smiled and placed the pink dress on the stool beside Ji Xiaoying’s bath barrel.
She changed into the light green dress. The fitting dress outlined her slender figure. The dark patterns on the dress were gorgeous. The light green suited her cold temperament too well, and there was a kind of low-key nobility.
Su Qing saw Ji Xiaoying coming out of the water as soon as she was done changing. She dried her body and put on the pink dress impatiently.
Xiaoying had a sweet temperament to begin with, and pink suit her perfectly. Her rosy face was like a peach blossom, and her waist was slender. She was petite and cute. There was a layer of light muslin over her long dress, and the light muslin danced as she turned, making her as beautiful as a fairy.
“Sister, I really like this dress.”
Ji Xiaoying pulled on her skirt and spun it around. She giggled happily as she watched the skirt flutter in the air. Her eyes and brows were filled with joy and excitement.
“It’s good that you like it,”
Su Qing liked Xiaoying’s happiness. When she smiled, she made one feel that everything in the world was beautiful.
The two sisters had just changed when someone knocked on the door again.
“Miss Su, Miss Ji, Old Master Qin would like to invite the two of you to a meal, please do so.”
Li Wu’s voice was polite and respectful as he stood outside the door. Su Qing nodded and said, “We’ll head over now.”
Ji Xiaoying asked Su Qing softly, “Sister, we’re still going out for dinner?”
“I’ll comb your hair for you.”
Su Qing nodded. Seeing Ji Xiaoying’s long hair draped over her shoulders and still dripping with water, he offered to help her comb her hair. Ji Xiaoying happily sat on the stool and obediently waited for Su Qing, like a child waiting for her mother to comb her hair.
A rare gentleness appeared in Su Qing’s eyes. She walked over and used a wooden comb to comb Ji Xiaoying’s hair. She tied Ji Xiaoying’s hair into a double bun. Although she did not have any accessories, it was not a problem for Su Qing. She used her hair to tie two braids and wrapped them around the bun. It was as if she was using a flower petal as a base. The bun was the center of the flower.
Ji Xiaoying’s eyes lit up when she saw the way her sister had combed her hair. She looked at Su Qing with admiration.
“Sister, you’re so skilled.”
Su Qing laughed. She would get sick of others sucking up to her, but Xiaoying’s words were pleasing to her ears.
Su Qing had simply combed her hair into a bun with a bamboo hairpin. Her eyes were cold, and with her hairstyle and long dress, she gave off an unattainable feeling.
The two sisters walked out of the room together, and Li Wu’s eyes lit up as he waited outside. One was hot and the other was cold, but they were both beautiful faces. Standing together, it was simply pleasing to the eye.
“Ladies, please.”
Li Wu’s absent-mindedness was only for a short moment. He immediately returned to his humble and respectful appearance and made an inviting gesture.
Ji Xiaoying sneaked a glance at Su Qing. She saw that Su Qing’s expression was cold and her eyes were proud. She did not pay any attention to Li Wu and was afraid that Li Wu would be angry. However, seeing that he did not seem angry, she continued to lead the way with a smile.
Old Master Qin had also changed into a set of white undergarments after taking a bath. He wore a dark satin long shirt on the outside. The cuffs and clothes were embroidered with dark gold threads. A dark jade pendant hung under his belt. He exuded an air of nobility that could not be ignored. Coupled with the old man’s dignified expression, he was even more noble and unapproachable.
Seeing Su Qing and Ji Xiaoying arrive, a smile appeared on the old man’s serious face. He asked them with a smile, “Do you like the clothes?”
Su Qing didn’t answer his question, but coldly said, “I’ll count it in the consultation fee.”
Old Master Qin was stunned for a moment, and then he laughed out loud.
“Alright, alright, I’ll add it to the consultation fee.”
“Let’s go to Full Moon restaurant to taste the steamed West Lake fish that the attendant mentioned. How about that?”
Old Master Qin smiled and asked for Su Qing’s opinion. He felt that she was not an easy person to get along with. Her sense of self-protection was too strong. When she interacted with others, she always had a cold side that was impossible to cross.
“Alright,” he said.
...
Su Qing didn’t reject the offer. He had been on the run ever since he transmigrated here. If he had the chance, he would have a good meal to replenish his empty stomach. Why would he reject it?
“Then let’s go!”
Old Master Qin smiled as he walked in front. Su Qing and Ji Xiaoying followed behind. The three of them walked down the stairs together.
Seeing Old Master Qin come down, the attendant hurriedly came to serve him, ”
“Master Qin, please slow down.”
When he saw Su Qing and Ji Xiaoying standing behind Old Master Qin, the attendant was stunned. He had seen many beautiful women before, but he was still stunned by their beauty.
Beauty comes from within and not just in appearance. These two were beautiful from their bones to their skin, especially the aloof girl. She was like a rose with thorns, which could arouse men’s desire to conquer her.
“Has the private room been reserved?”
In front of Su Qing and Ji Xiaoying, Old Master Qin was a kind old man, but in front of the attendant, he was cold and stern, full of grandeur.
“Don’t worry, Sir. I’ve prepared the best Peony Pavilion for you,”
The chief attendant put away his thoughts and answered respectfully.
...
“Alright,” he said.
Old Master Qin nodded, then turned to Su Qing and Ji Xiaoying.
“Let’s go!”
As soon as the three of them came out of the house, they saw a dozen warhorses galloping into the attendant station.
