... Could it be the air conditioner is too cold I'll go find a thermometer and ask Old Mrs. Wu to come up. Um... would you mind helping him put on some clothes" I gave her a few instructions and turne...Well, no wonder the portraits passed down from the revered celestial deities are all "imagined" depictions.
Even the Bei Tai Emperor has many different appearances. They are mostly abstract paintings with a fierce and imposing expression. Behind them, there are many maids holding fragrant parasols, simulating the scene of an earthly emperor's procession.
To this day, I've never seen him with any maidservants when he travels. Immortals come and go freely, their actions are vastly different from the fantasies of mortals.
"Mu Xia Qiao, humanity needs to preserve images to reminisce about the past, but you and I don't need to. Our appearances won't change much, so you don't have to worry about growing old." He said lightly.
"So I'm still considered a beauty in your eyes…" I mumbled with a pout.
Jiang Qiyun raised an eyebrow: "My wife is naturally a beauty in my eyes. The appearance of others, whether beautiful or ugly, has nothing to do with me."
He leaned in close to my ear, his voice a low murmur, "I've seen you in that fire-like wedding dress. What do you say Want to wear it again"
"That's different...Although Chinese dresses are very pretty, I also want to see what you look like in a suit and tie..."
"Didn't you pass through"
"He's not wearing a tie, or even proper clothes!"
"...So, what do you propose" he frowned.
When the Emperor usually said this, it was a sign that he was willing to compromise.
"I quickly added, "My brother is going to propose to Lin Yanqin and there will be an engagement banquet too. Our family definitely has to go, and you should come too, okay I'll get you a really handsome suit! Besides, now that you can transform into a physical body, it’s perfect timing."
"Is this really necessary Do I need to do this" Jiang Qiyun looked at me unhappily.
"...You won't propose, you won't get engaged, you won't even have a wedding banquet, and you still don't let me be excited Just treat it like a date with me."
He wasn't keen on it. What kind of celestial being would want to participate in such mundane, boisterous affairs
But I'm not afraid, I still have the pillow talk tactic!
After the Emperor's return from his period of self-effacement, his temper improved significantly. The strategy of using a "pillow wind" was quite effective, though it came at a considerable sacrifice.
My brother chose his own room for the proposal. I teased him that he did it to save trouble, but he said it was to avoid being seen and having photos uploaded online, so that no one could make up stories about it.
He bought a lot of different romantic night lights. All the windows in my house are hung with spherical, pentagonal, and mini bulb shapes. At night, if only the night lights are on, the whole house looks like a castle hosting a fireworks display.
I stood on the folding chairs to help him hang star-shaped decorations, and said with a pout, "Brother, is this all your legendary reputation amounts to You even managed to create such a cliché setting"
"Hmph, getting married is so mundane anyway. I wish I could just live outside the world! The problem is, can I even turn back now"
"...Want to turn back"
"How is that possible If you provoke her, you should be mentally prepared. Oh~~ I was already mentally prepared at the time."
"Pff... You're really quick."
"You're miles ahead of me, you and your husband just cut right to the chase!"
Seeing him bending over to mop the floor, I felt a mixture of amusement and melancholy—Mu Yunfan, no matter how astute and perceptive he was, even if he understood all the mundane affairs of the world and their inevitability, he still jumped into the pit.
Lin Yanqin arrived soon, bringing with her a "new title". My brother's auction company was hers, the behind-the-scenes boss. Pfft... This really is "selling everything to get a wife"!
Lin Yanqin is really considerate. I've never heard her say a word about the Mu family. She values the respect the Mu family has given her, so she's been very supportive... and brought a bunch of red envelopes.
Commonly known as, a deed to a property.
My brother and I stared at the stack of red books, speechless. Lin Yanqin explained, "This is from my older brother. He said Mom and Dad couldn't give it to me because they don't have any assets under their name, but if we're getting married, we need a place to live... Yunfan, what do you think When should we add your name"
"Huh" My brother, who was looking through house listings, widened his eyes at my words.
Did you get it wrong It's always the woman who asks to add a name, this rich girl is really different.
My brother shook his head and said, "How can your dowry include my name Don't be foolish."
Lin Yanqin sat on the sofa opposite, her knees close together, her hands resting on her knees, in the posture of a well-bred young lady.
She didn't humble herself, a slight smile on her lips as she said: “This isn't being foolish, it's an exchange of trust. You gave me the Mu family's treasures for all these years, and I should repay you in kind. However, the Lin family's assets are not up to me to speak about; that is my brother's empire. All I have are these insignificant properties... To be honest, these things are just scraps from our marriage. You don't care, but all I have is this to share with you... Just agree to me...”
Pff, the previous paragraph was so eloquent and refined, but that last sentence with the baby voice at the end!
My brother smirked and said, "What Are you trying to make me owe you a favor"
Lin Yanqin pursed her lips and said in a low voice, "You fear trouble the most, and I want to trouble you. This way, even if we fight later—"
“So many red books, if we were to divorce, the lawsuit would take three years, right” My brother chuckled.
Lin Yanqin stuck out her tongue playfully, caught by my brother.
These two weirdos!
Is it really necessary to discuss divorce with such sweetness and honeyed words
I rolled my eyes silently, got up and gave way: “You guys chat slowly… Yan Qin is going to stay at my place tonight I'm going to cook…”
"Hey, Xiao Qiao, don't be so busy. Aren't you pregnant already"
I said speechless: "Don't worry, before Huí yú Guī and Yóu nán, I was running around all day... My brother came for you, personally wiping the floor! This is the first time I've ever seen him wipe the floor..."
Lin Yanqin was a little surprised, while my brother glared at me - do you need to help out!
"By the way, Yan Qin, in a few days it's Huachang Festival, why don't we go see the flowers together" I suddenly remembered.
Lin Yanqin had studied abroad for many years and was not familiar with some less important traditional festivals. She tilted her head and asked me, "What is the Flower Appreciation Festival"
"Hmm... it's the festival to worship the Flower God. I've got my outfit ready, how about we go together" I smirked wickedly.
"Sure." Lin Yanqin didn't suspect anything.
I turned around to start cooking. My brother said in a sinister tone, “Little Qiao has gone bad now! You don’t know anything, do you Just agreed to her”
"Huh Little Qiao wouldn't hurt me, what problems could there be with agreeing to her"
"So you don't understand! It is rumored that the Flower God governs human childbirth, so this festival is also about praying for a long lineage of descendants! Do you really think it's just about admiring flowers Admiring flowers requires special clothes You fool..."
Pff…
I heard Lin Yanqin laugh out loud, then said cheerfully: "What's the matter I also hoped that Mu Jiazi, Sun, Mian, Chang, ah ~~"nchen with my eyes.Mu Wanchen frowned slightly and said, "In the holy land of this compassionate and merciful deity, there shouldn't be any damaged objects. You should try taking a pill."I'm not reall...
