Xie Wanjin called out to her, but no one knew what Wen Jiu was thinking, and there was no reaction.
He could not help but raise his voice, ”Jiu?”
”Hmm?” Wen Jiu came back to his senses, his eyes still somewhat blank, ”Fourth Brother, what did you say just now?”
”I didn't say anything.” Fourth Young Master was very honest at this time.
Wen Jiu laughed, ”Then I heard wrong.”
”Um, Elder Brother has been busy with military affairs these past few days, so …” So, he's not here. ” Xie Wanjin lied, his face did not redden nor did his heart beat fast, and his expression was extremely sincere, ”Don't think too much about it.”
After he finished speaking, he saw the smile on Wen Jiu's face dissipate.
Xie Wanjin wanted to slap himself twice.
Can't you just shut up?
”Brother Elder, I naturally have to worry about you.” Wen Jiu no longer had a smile on his face. His expression was still considered calm, but his method of two meters was just as usual. He had exchanged a few words with the Fourth Young Master.
She handed over all the shops in the Dijing to Xie Wanjin and rushed there for two days. Then, she called over all the second manager from below so that Fourth Young Master could take a look.
When they had time, they would stand guard by Fifth Young Master's side, and would have to busy themselves with the wedding ceremony.
Xie Heng seemed to be busier than them since the night he listened to He Xuan.
He never appeared in front of Wen Jiu again.
It was as if it had happened overnight.
There was no longer any connection between them.
It was just that for some reason, Wen Jiu's heart suddenly felt a little empty.
He also didn't see Xie Heng often before.
This time, there were only two days left.
This unexplainable emotion made Wen Jiu a little uneasy.
”I'm here, hurry up and try it Jiu. There's nothing that's inappropriate about it, I can still get them to change it as soon as possible.” Third Madame Xie brought a few maids in, and pulled Wen Jiu along as they spoke affectionately. When they turned around to look at Fourth Young Master, their heads were on fire, ”What's with this big brother of yours? Jiu was about to get married. Didn't they see that everyone inside and outside the house was flipping through the sky? Can't you just look at the account books and all that? ”If you can't even handle the money you earn, what else can you do?!”
Fourth Young Master was lectured so much that she could not laugh, and her Pear Vortex collapsed.
Wen Jiu spoke a few words of kindness for Xie Wanjin before Third Madame Xie dragged Wen Jiu back to her room, urging her to try out her bridal dress.
After discussing the wedding several times, Wen Jiu decided to take it easy.
Although the happy occasion was hastily arranged, with a lot of gold, silver, jade, and other items being sold, she was still the best tailor in the entire Dijing City. She brought along a dozen or so embroidery ladies and rushed out in two days.
The pearl inlaid in the phoenix crown almost dazzled the human eye.
Wen Jiu finished changing into a new set of clothes, and walked to the outer room with Ling Luo Zhu Cui covering her body. Third Madame Xie and the servants surrounded her to praise her.
Wen Jiu laughed. In his previous life, he had always been brooding over his failure to get married in his heart, but upon arriving to this day, he felt extremely calm in his heart.
She felt the weight of the phoenix crown on her head, so she got married... So troublesome.
She didn't know.
Not far away, a young man in a red robe stood against the wind on a rooftop. Behind him were dark clouds that covered the sky.
Before long, the situation changed.
The pedestrians on the streets scurried away in a hurry, the attendant maids laughing and hiding in the corridors.
He stood there motionlessly as the rain poured down his body with a stupefied expression on his face.
Xie Wanjin climbed up the ladder to the roof as he laid on the roof. He advised with a sad tone: ”Big brother, don't look anymore.”
