First-rank palace maid Su Jixiang

Chapter 435 Wu Dalang and Pan Jinlian

Su Jixiang changed his clothes and came out. Seeing Wei Ling's face as dark as water, he guessed something.

"Don't be angry." She walked in front of Wei Ling and said softly.

Wei Ling took a deep breath and came back to his senses. He raised his eyes and looked at his wife.

Su Jixiang was extremely beautiful, but she didn't usually dress up. Now, after putting on this new dress, she looked like a blooming peony, bright and elegant. Her face was extremely gentle, and her eyes looking at him were like rippling spring water. Just one glance made Wei Ling's anger disappear completely.

"It looks good." A hint of warmth appeared on Wei Ling's lips. He stood up, took Su Jixiang's hand and asked her to turn around in front of him, his eyes full of amazement.

"I think it looks good too!" Su Jixiang said with a smile.

She also likes beautiful clothes. She was too busy in Mangcheng before, and she was the woman with the highest status in Mangcheng. Others would not comment on her clothes, so she just dressed as comfortably and simply as possible. But it was different in Beijing. If not for anything else, even for the sake of Mangcheng's reputation, she should dress more elegantly.

Su Jixiang is not opposed to these gorgeous clothes, it just depends on where they are used.

Wei Ling suddenly felt a pang in his heart. Although he did not approve of Qian Feng's actions and was even a little angry at him for not fighting back, compared to how much Qian Feng loved Zhao Xiuwan, he was really too rough with Su Jixiang!

"It's all my fault. I should have dressed you up earlier." Wei Ling lowered his voice and said to Su Jixiang.

"Hey, what are you saying? You gave me all your money, can't you buy what I want yourself?" Su Jixiang was stunned. As smart as she was, she immediately understood what Wei Ling meant by this.

Even though Su Jixiang said so, Wei Ling decided to pay more attention to this matter in the future. He used to think that as long as he was honest and sincere to Su Jixiang, it would be fine. But now it seems that he was still not meticulous enough!

"I'll go pick out some jewelry later." Wei Ling turned and smiled at the owner of the embroidery shop standing by and waiting on the side. "Based on this size, make more fashionable styles and patterns, and use the best fabrics. Prepare some for all seasons, understand? I want all the clothes to match, from the inside out, including the shoes and socks. You can't be careless and must do it carefully."

The owner of the embroidery shop was immediately overjoyed upon hearing this, her face even more toothy than before. "Yes, yes, yes, Your Majesty is so kind to your Madam! I'll make a list for your Majesty's review in a moment, and I'll make sure all the clothes for your Madam, including underwear and shoes and socks, are ready! Your Majesty, rest assured. Since my embroidery shop has caught the eye of Your Majesty and Your Majesty, I will do my best to satisfy them. It's just that regarding the production time... could you please be a little flexible?"

If we only make clothes for the current season, it would still be possible to ask the people in Quanxiufang to catch up, but clothes for all four seasons, from the inside out, do take time to make.

"First, make the clothes needed for the season and send them to the Marquis' Mansion. You can finish the rest within three months." Wei Ling paid the balance for the clothes and gave some deposits for the new clothes to the boss. Then he held Su Jixiang's hand and wanted to take her away.

"I need to change these clothes first." Su Jixiang said with a smile.

"It's okay, wear it. It's for you anyway." Wei Ling refused. His wife was as beautiful as any other wealthy lady in the capital! He just wanted to show everyone how beautiful his wife was!

It was his negligence before, but it won’t happen again.

"Okay." Su Jixiang didn't hesitate and smiled.

The boss was also very tactful and quickly said, "Don't worry, madam, your clothes will be washed and sent to your house."

"Well. That's troublesome." Su Jixiang said.

"You are too polite, madam. It is a blessing for our shop and me to be able to do things for you." The boss smiled happily as he escorted Wei Ling and his wife out of the showroom.

"Those two people are Zhao Xiuwan and Nangong Rui, right?" Su Jixiang and Wei Ling asked in a low voice after they walked to the street.

"Yeah." Wei Ling responded.

Su Jixiang took a deep breath. "You can't control so many things." Su Jixiang knew that although Wei Ling appeared cold, he was actually very kind to the brothers who had been through thick and thin with him. Zhao Xiuwan had forced Qian Feng to owe so much money outside, and the fact that Qian Feng was still able to stay in the barracks was partly due to Wei Ling. "You can help Qian Feng temporarily, but not forever. There are some things he needs to think through thoroughly on his own."

"I won't help you anymore!" Wei Ling raised his eyebrows and looked at Su Jixiang in surprise. "Did you guess that I paid off Qian Feng's debt?"

"How could you not guess?" Su Jixiang placed his free hand on the backs of their clasped hands and said softly, "You sold some of your favorite calligraphy and paintings a few days ago, so I knew you needed money, but you didn't tell me, so I didn't say anything. I sent someone to ask Qiao Er, and he said someone paid back all the money Qian Feng owed. He didn't say it was you, but in Mangcheng, who else could do such a thing besides Xie Yingfeng and you? Qian Feng violated military regulations and used military pay and rations. You demoted him and beat him. This is public, but privately you can't stand him being chased for debts all the time, so you will definitely take action. When we leave Mangcheng, Qian Feng can rest assured to recover from his injuries, so I guessed what you need the money for."

"Xie Yingfeng and I each contributed some." Wei Ling's voice was a little dull. "I didn't want you to worry about it, and I didn't want you to pay any money, so I didn't tell you about this."

"We've been married for so many years. How you are and how I am, don't you understand? You don't need to hide things like this from me in the future." Su Jixiang said softly to Wei Ling, "As long as you think it is right, just tell me. I won't object. There are many things you don't need to carry on alone."

Wei Ling looked at Su Jixiang, with a hint of warmth in his eyes, "Yes, Madam is right."

"Then why were you so angry just now? Was it because you felt sorry for Qian Feng?" Su Jixiang asked.

"Qian Feng is recuperating at home, but she actually came to the capital with Nangong Rui and stayed in a hotel as a couple. How can I not be angry?" Wei Ling said in a low voice and frowned.

Su Jixiang raised her eyebrows, a little surprised. In the name of husband and wife? She really didn't expect this!

Are these two people really getting together?

The story of Wu Dalang and Pan Jinlian suddenly flashed through Su Jixiang's mind. Of course, Qian Feng was not Wu Dalang, and Nangong Rui was not as rich and powerful as Ximen Qing...

She couldn't help but ask, "Is Qian Feng doing well in Mangcheng? I hope he didn't get hurt by these two people..."

When Su Jixiang mentioned this, Wei Ling's eyelids couldn't help but twitch! He obviously understood what Su Jixiang meant.

"Not really..." Wei Ling said hesitantly.
