The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man-Chapter 923 - : 923 Qinghe was stunned
Chapter 923: 923 Qinghe was stunned
“No need to say it, sitting in such a fine carriage, even the maid’s attire is better than ours, the master must be a well-bred young lady…”
Xiao Qinghe, seated in a wheelchair at a corner outside the courtyard, was admiring the pastoral landscape not far away.
He had also noticed that unfamiliar carriage.
Clearly, the carriage was heading towards his home.
This chapt𝓮r is updat𝒆d by ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom.
When he saw the woman in purple get off the carriage after the maid, he was instantly captivated.
Her skin was fair, her long hair flowed like a waterfall, and her slender figure was elegantly accentuated by her purple attire. With her luxurious garments shining vividly, her beautiful features were dazzling.
Although she couldn’t be described as a ravishing beauty, she was the most beautiful woman Xiao Qinghe had ever seen.
Tao Meijiao’s gaze also fell on the young man sitting in the wheelchair not far away.
His hair was as smooth as satin, half of it tied up with a headband, the rest cascading down his back. Beneath his graceful brows were a pair of clear, pitch-black eyes. His lips were slightly pursed, and his skin was a paler white than ordinary people, adding a sickly beauty to his appearance.
Only about ten steps separated them. While a crowd of villagers by the carriage clamored noisily, he was as quiet as if from another world, so peaceful it seemed he might vanish into the mountainous mists and waters.
A deep melancholy seemed to be etched between his delicate brows.
Tao Meijiao felt a pang of pain in her heart as she watched him, unable to take her eyes off him, almost bewitched.
A thought flashed through her mind, rising up.
It was him, he was the man she wanted!
As she quietly observed him, the more Tao Meijiao watched, the more enchanted she became.
Xiao Qinghe, feeling her intense gaze, blushed slightly, having never seen such a beautiful woman, and for a moment forgot to look away.
Seeing his blush, Tao Meijiao instantly thought he was so innocent, and her fondness for him soared. She hadn’t expected that in such a remote place as Wushan Village, there would be such an elegantly handsome man.
Su Qingyue, in the yard, heard the commotion outside, went out the courtyard door to look, and just happened to see Tao Meijiao and Xiao Qinghe exchange “affectionate” glances.
To call it an affectionate exchange might be an exaggeration, but it was certain that both felt a mutual attraction at this first meeting.
Qingyue paused for a moment, then looked towards her fourth brother.
At the same time, she also roughly understood what his feelings towards her were.
Upon seeing Su Qingyue, Xiao Qinghe immediately averted his gaze.
Tao Meijiao immediately walked towards her enthusiastically, “Xiao Yue!”
Su Qingyue smiled faintly, “Meijiao, how come you’re here?”
“Of course I came to see you.” She also revealed a bright smile. “You don’t know, I set out from town early today, the carriage took the wrong path, and it took until now to find your village. This village really is secluded.”
Realizing that such a comment might sound rude to her host’s village, she added, “You haven’t come to see me in town for so long, I’ve missed you terribly, so I ran here to see you.”
“Let’s go inside,” Su Qingyue led the way into the yard.
Tao Meijiao, holding her hand, walked together with her into the yard, but before entering, she cast another long look at Xiao Qinghe.
Qinghe uncomfortably looked away.
In the front yard, Xiao Yishan, Yuchuan, and Fuquan were also looking at the newcomer.
Xiao Yuchuan had already seen Tao Meijiao before and simply nodded his head, greeting her.
Xiao Yishan and Fuquan, upon seeing such a great beauty, likewise stared a bit longer with a stunned gaze.
Li Rong’er looked at Tao Meijiao with some wariness and asked, “Who are you?”
Tao Meijiao assessed her as well and replied, “And who are you?”
