Looking at Xu Mengfei's appearance just now, Xiao Jingheng felt a little distressed.

She hadn't had a good rest these past few days and was really exhausted.

Even so, Xu Mengfei was still concerned about him and asked him to rest early and take care of his health.

This couldn't help but make Xiao Jingheng feel a little guilty. Xu Mengfei cared about him so much, but he was always thinking about how to avoid her.

After spending these few days together, Xiao Jingheng's impression of Xu Mengfei has really changed a lot. She is really a very good girl.

This is good enough to make Xiao Jingheng change his mind about her and even develop a good impression of her, but it is still a long way from being truly attracted to her.

Although Xiao Jingheng had to admit that he felt moved the moment Xu Mengfei hugged him.

But this was far from enough for him to confirm his feelings.

After all, they have only been together for a short time, so this doesn't mean anything.

Fortunately, they still have a long time to get along with each other. Perhaps this affection can really take root and sprout as they get along bit by bit, and finally turn into love.

If Xiao Jingheng had no hope at all before starting this marriage, it was only because it was his responsibility.

After these few short days, he has actually changed his mind and really hopes to live a good life with Xu Mengfei.

If their relationship can eventually turn into mutual affection, it would be an unexpected gain.

On the other hand, after receiving the imperial decree granting the marriage, the Wu'an Marquis Mansion began to prepare for the wedding with all their heart and soul.

Although Li Zhehao and Xiao Qingning will live in the princess's mansion after marriage, their wedding will still be held in the Wu'an Marquis's Mansion.

Xiao Qingning is not only a princess, but also Xiao Chenyu's most beloved youngest daughter, so the standard of this wedding naturally cannot be low.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs also attached great importance to the wedding and made careful preparations for it. Porcelain, treasures, silks, satins and other good things were continuously sent to the Wu'an Marquis's Mansion, and Chen Qun came personally every time to show his importance.

Li Wenfeng and Zhao thanked him repeatedly and smiled from ear to ear.

However, the happiest person in the entire Marquis' Mansion, besides Li Zhehao, is Li Yaxuan.

Li Yaxuan didn't expect Xiao Jingxuan to persuade Ye Hengjing to change his mind so easily, and she was very happy for her second brother and his wife.

Later, they were even more shocked when they learned that Ye Hengjing took the initiative to express his willingness to help the two of them. They didn't expect that although he looked a little unkind, he was actually willing to help them.

Li Yaxuan really wanted to help prepare for the wedding, but Zhao had her daughter-in-law Yan to help, so there was no need for her to do anything.

Besides, Li Yaxuan was relatively unfamiliar with these matters after all, and Zhao was worried that she would make things more troublesome, so she drove her out and let her play by herself.

Li Yaxuan was disliked by her mother, so she had no choice but to leave and find something to do on her own.

Li Yaxuan thought that she should prepare a wedding gift for her brother and sister-in-law, so she took Qinfang to the Treasure Pavilion.

Li Yaxuan looked around and finally decided on a pair of jade ruyi.

Not only is it well-made, but the jade ruyi also symbolizes everything going well. It is very suitable as a gift to brothers and sisters-in-law, and it also represents her blessing.

Li Yaxuan knew that the treasures in the Treasure Pavilion were of great value, so she prepared a lot of silver and money in advance.

After all, it is a gift for my brother and sister-in-law, so I must choose a high-quality one that will satisfy her.

As for the price, it is not what Li Yaxuan cares about most. After all, their Wu'an Marquis Mansion is not short of money.

But when Li Yaxuan asked the price, the other party's answer shocked her.

The person looking after the store today is a little girl about the same age as Li Yaxuan. She has pretty features and two dimples on her face when she smiles. She is very cute.

This person is Qingzhi, Fang Yueqing's right-hand man. She usually takes turns looking after the store with another little girl named Mengshu.

"Are you Miss Li from Wu'an Marquis's Mansion?"

Li Yaxuan was stunned when she heard this. "You know me? I seldom went out before, and I have never been to the Treasure Pavilion many times. How do you know who I am?"

Qingzhi smiled when she heard this, "Miss Li, don't be nervous. The shop assistant just said that he saw a carriage from the Wu'an Marquis' Mansion at the door. There is only one prince's wife and one young lady in the Wu'an Marquis' Mansion. Judging from your age and the way you are dressed, you should not be married yet, so he guessed your identity."

Li Yaxuan nodded when she heard this. "So that's how it is. You're really smart. Can you help me see how much silver this pair of jade ruyi is worth?"

Upon hearing this, Qingzhi did not look at what Li Yaxuan was holding, but smiled slightly.

"Miss Li, our boss has said that you don't have to pay for anything you buy. Just tell me what you like and I'll pack it for you and you can take it away."

Li Yaxuan was shocked when she heard this. She didn't even know the owner of the Treasure Pavilion, so why would he give her something for free, and it was such a valuable thing at that.

"Excuse me, who is your boss... Does he know me? Why doesn't he accept my money?"

Qingzhi smiled when she heard this, "Miss Li, our boss's identity cannot be disclosed. But I can tell you that our boss has some friendship with Princess Chen. You are Princess Chen's cousin, so you will naturally be treated preferentially. You don't have to be polite."

After hearing this, Li Yaxuan suddenly realized that this was all thanks to her cousin.

Speaking of which, my cousin is not only knowledgeable, but also knows a lot of people and has friends everywhere.

And I am really lucky to be able to benefit from it.

However, this jade ruyi is obviously very valuable. If she takes it for free, then the favor will be attributed to her cousin, which is really inappropriate.

Besides, this was a gift she wanted to give to her brother and sister-in-law, so naturally she had to pay for it.

"That's right. However, please tell your boss that I appreciate his kindness, but I cannot accept his favor. I want to buy this jade ruyi as a gift, and I will pay for it. How about this, you give me a discount, and I will regard it as my acceptance of the boss's kindness, how do you think?"

Li Yaxuan was only thinking about not making things difficult for her cousin, but she didn't know that Lin Qingyao was now one of the shareholders of Zhenbao Pavilion and could just give her the jade ruyi for free without having to repay anyone's favor.

All of this was arranged by Lin Qingyao in advance. She didn't charge her family for anything they bought and just put the money in her account.

But Lin Qingyao also knew that her family might not be comfortable accepting such free gifts without any clear reason.

So she also told them that if they were unwilling to accept it, they should just do it according to their wishes and not force it.

Qingzhi secretly admired in her heart that Princess Chen really understood her family and would not accept this love with ease.

Since the other party had made a suggestion, Qingzhi naturally would not object and nodded, "Okay, since Miss Li insists on this, then I'll do as you said and give me three hundred taels of silver."

Even though she was well prepared, Li Yaxuan still had to sigh.

The treasures in this treasure pavilion are really valuable. Even though they have been given to her at a lower price, they are still worth three hundred taels, which is really not affordable for ordinary people.
