Alas! Lieutenant General Lin's daughter is just like him, a merciful person. But this is the way the world is. Good people will be bullied, and good horses will be ridden. As long as you can knock down the enemy at once, you must not be merciful.
Lin Qingxue seemed to be forced to make a decision, nodded and said: "Okay then!"
When she nodded and said yes, Wen Xu smiled. "The eldest lady has been in detention for a few days. Do you want me to go out with you today?"
In the past few days, as soon as he gets off duty, he will come to the inn to see the eldest lady and have dinner with her. But after today, the eldest lady will return to the general's mansion, and he will never have the chance to have close contact with the eldest lady. So Today, he wanted to go out for a walk with the eldest lady.
Lin Qingxue was really bored these days. Thinking that she would be able to return to the General's Mansion tomorrow and that bitch Shen Wan would be disgraced, she was in a particularly good mood and wanted to go out for a walk.
She also knew what Wenxu was thinking. Since he helped her, she had to give him some sweetness. Maybe in the future, she would have other things that she wanted Wenxu to help with!
She looked at Wen Xu and smiled: "Okay! I also want to go out with Brother Wen."
Wen Xu's heart moved, and he actually had the urge to hide her forever and prevent her from returning to the general's mansion.
Lin Qingxue put on a veil and left the inn with Wen Xu. Although it was already dark, the streets of the imperial city were still very lively.
The two walked for a while, and Wen Xu took Lin Qingxue into a jewelry shop.
"Master, please buy a hairpin for your wife!" the proprietress said to Wen Xu while standing at the counter.
"No..." Wen Xu wanted to deny it, but when he turned around and saw Lin Qingxue lowering her head shyly, he suddenly didn't want to deny it.
He walked to the counter and said to the proprietress: "Take out all the best hairpins you have here."
"Okay!" Seeing that this was a big customer, the landlady quickly put all the best hairpins in the shop on the counter.
Wen Xu glanced at it, picked up a solid lotus gold hairpin, and said to Lin Qingxue like a treasure, "Do you like this one?"
In Wen Xu's heart, Lin Qingxue is like a peerless white lotus that emerges from the mud but remains unsullied, and washes through the ripples without being demonic.
Lin Qingxue had no idea how many hairpins she had before, so she was naturally not rare. However, she still nodded and said, "It's very beautiful, I like it very much."
The landlady hurriedly praised: "Master, you have such good taste. You picked the best hairpin in our shop right away."
Wen Xu immediately said: "How much is this hairpin? I want it!"
Since the eldest lady liked the hairpin he picked, he bought the hairpin and gave it to her.
Lady boss: "This hairpin costs three hundred taels of silver."
The corner of Wenxu's mouth twitched slightly. This small hairpin was his salary for more than half a year. However, ordinary people spend a lot of money just to make a beautiful woman smile. Now, he only spent three hundred taels of silver to win a beautiful woman. What does it mean if the person you care about smiles?
"I bought it." Wen Xu said and inserted the hairpin into Lin Qingxue's hair.
"Thank you, Brother Wen." Lin Qingxue thanked her softly.
Wen Xu looked at the shining golden hairpin in her hair, and his heart was filled with excitement. He took out his money bag from his arms, took out the three hundred taels of silver notes that he had finally saved, and handed it to the landlady.
Wenxu's salary for the same month was only forty taels. He didn't have to worry about the household expenses. Chen Liniang was providing the money. But he had to treat people to drinks every month. He could save these three hundred taels.
More than a year.
The landlady took the banknote with a smile and said, "Master and madam, please go slowly. Welcome to come again next time."
The two of them left the shop and wandered around for a while before Wen Xu reluctantly sent Lin Qingxue back to the inn.
