Jade Without Fragrance Chapter 300

   Chapter 300 Before Flowers

  Qi Shuo walked to the gate of the General's Mansion and slowed down.

  The familiar animal-faced tin ring gate, the familiar pair of stone lions, the familiar blue wall, everything in front of him is no different from when he left the capital, but he had a sense of being close to the country for no reason.

   "The prince is here!" Seeing Qi Shuo standing still, the general's gatekeeper greeted him with a smile.

   Qi Shuo retracted his mind and smiled politely: "I'm here to visit the old lady and mother-in-law."

   "Sir, please come in." The doorman warmly welcomed Qi Shuo in.

   Lin Hao put on a beautiful new dress when he came back from the street, and went to the main courtyard to chat with the old lady.

  The Lin family also got together, and didn't forget to laugh at their daughter: "Look at your impatient, there are a lot of things going back to the banquet in the palace of King Jing, maybe it will come tomorrow."

  Lin Hao pursed his lips and smiled: "He will definitely come to greet grandmother and mother."

   Seeing her silly and happy appearance, Lin shi shook his head: "You dress up more festively than the Chinese New Year, and you are not afraid of the prince laughing at you."

  She was fed up with the women's lack of restraint, and it was always a little disturbing to see her daughter like this.

  Lin Hao looked down at the pink-green rose-embroidered tunic, and smiled and said, "I just want to dress up for him to see."

  Lin has to say more, but was despised by the old lady: "Don't educate Ah, Ah, there are many more than you."

   She is a silly girl who is not reserved when she should be, and awkward when she shouldn't. The granddaughter really needs to listen to her before she will be taken into the pit.

  The three grandfathers and grandsons were talking when a maid came in to report: "The prince is here."

   "Come in."

   The plain gauze curtain was quickly lifted, and the old lady and Lin looked at the young man who walked in and smiled unconsciously.

   Qi Shuo respectfully greeted the old lady and the Lin family, his eyes turned slightly, and fell on Lin Hao's face.

   The girl with outstanding looks wearing beautiful new clothes smiled at him, like a flower blooming in the early summer hitting his eyes.

   He restrained his gaze away and answered the two elders' questions: "It's not too hard, and it's not uncomfortable. The most important thing is to win..."

   The old lady and Mrs Lin asked a lot of questions, and they all got serious and patient answers.

  The old lady was very satisfied with this grandson-in-law, and she no longer delayed the two young people getting along with her interest: "It's good to come back safely, and your mother-in-law and I are also relieved. Ah, you can accompany the son to the garden for a walk."

   "Well." Lin Hao got up and walked to Qi Shuo's side, with a sweet smile on his raised face, "Let's go."

  The garden in April is the most beautiful time, with flowers and verdant vegetation everywhere. It seems that they deliberately made space for the two young people who have not seen each other for a long time. The two walked so unhurriedly, except for the treasure behind Lin Hao, they never saw a servant on the road.

  Unconsciously, they came to the wall.

   Qi Shuo stopped, and Lin Hao also stopped.

   The two who had been quiet all the way looked at each other with joy in their eyes.

   "I'm back." Qi Shuo opened his mouth.

  Lin Hao raised his lips: "I know you will definitely come back."

  Those worries, anxiety, and worrying about gains and losses are unnecessary things to mention in this reunion day.

  Qi Shuo remembered Lin Hao's reaction in the teahouse: "Ah Hao, what are you hiding when you see me?"

   "Oh, my veil fell off." Lin Hao explained calmly.

   These words were not concealed from the little princess, but Qi Shuo believed it and said with a relaxed smile: "I thought you were angry at the time."

   "Why am I angry?" Lin Hao asked rhetorically.

  Qi Shuo lowered his eyes slightly, and his gentle eyes covered the girl's white porcelain face: "I lied about being seriously injured, so you are worried."

   Lin Hao nodded: "I'm really worried, but I know that the news sent back contains moisture. The so-called serious injury should be for the future plan."

  I think so intellectually, but I am really worried.

   "Ashuo, come and sit." Lin Hao pulled Qi Shuo to the back of the flower stand full of roses, where there was a table and two chairs, just like the small world in the palace garden separated by a wall.

  When Qi Shuo first came out of Beijing, Lin Hao couldn't help worrying. When his emotions accumulated, he took the orb over the wall and went over the wall. He stayed in the small world behind the flower stand for a while, and then came back when he was in a better mood.

   After going over the wall a few times, Baozhu asked, "Girl, why don't we put a set of tables and chairs behind the flower stand on our side, so that we don't have to go over the wall."

  Although she supports the girl in everything she does, but Prince Jing is not there, why did the girl climb over the wall and go to the garden of the palace in a daze, obviously the scenery on both sides is similar.

   Mainly because she didn't want to use the excuse of looking for a shuttlecock to find a sandbag to fool the silly little servant. It was a bully.

   Lin Hao was reminded, so he had this arrangement, but for some reason, when he was sitting in his garden in a daze, he still had the urge to jump over the wall.

  Qi Shuo sat down, and in front of his eyes were numerous flowers and branches and leaves that blocked the dazzling sunlight. He was obviously similar to the palace, but he was a little embarrassed.

   seems to have the feeling of being an apprentice...

   "What's the matter?" Lin asked with a smile.

  Qi Shuo stared at the girl sitting opposite: "It always feels unreal, as if you were fighting on the battlefield a moment ago, and now I am chatting with you under the flower stand. I thought—"

   He paused, and a deepened smile formed on his lips: "I thought we would be separated for a long time."

  Lin Hao raised his eyebrows: "Isn't it long enough?"

   This fool!

"That was not what I meant--"

   A plain hand stretched out in front of him, making him forget to say the following words.

   "I heard that there are many specialties in the north. Did you bring me a gift?"

   Qi Shuo's expression was obviously stiff, and he shook his head honestly.

   "I knew it." Lin Hao sighed, but there was no blame in his eyes, instead there was a soft light, "Ashuo, I prepared a gift for you."

   "What gift?" Qi Shuo felt more and more ashamed.

The girl opposite    suddenly leaned forward, the face that was more delicate than a rose flower approached instantly, and a soft lip was attached to it.

   She kissed his sharp eyebrows, the raised eyes at the end of his eyes, the bridge of his tall nose, and his cool lips.

   His lips were very thin, and the color of his lips was pale. He opened slightly in surprise, welcoming the clumsy rampage of the other party.

   After a short delay, the man's strong arms wrapped around the girl's slender body.

   The pink-green skirt embroidered with roses spread out, like ripples in layers of water.

  Qi Shuo noticed that his body was changing, and he moved his hands around the girl's waist to support her shoulders, pushing her away some distance.

  Lin Hao's eyes flashed with doubts, his voice was not as clear as usual, but with a hint of hoarseness: "What's the matter?"

  Qi Shuo's eyes moved to the rose branch that was swaying gently by the breeze, and his eyes became clear before he looked at the girl in front of him.

   "Well, our wedding date should be coming soon."

  Lin Hao took a step closer and asked with confusion, "So can't I kiss you now?"

   Qi Shuo completely forgot to react.
