Overbearing Husband from Power Family - C59

It was only then that the shop assistant noticed the woman behind him. To be exact, it was a girl who was much younger than Chief Wei.

Gu Xiao You followed the shop assistant and entered. Inside the row of exquisite display windows, every single piece of clothing was exquisite, and every piece of clothing was expensive.

“My name is Gu.”

“Miss Gu, what kind of dress do you need?”

Gu Xiao You looked at Wei Jing Xing with an inquiring look, and Wei Jing Xing replied: “For the elder’s birthday banquet, pick out a more dignified dress for her, and don’t expose her back to her chest.” Finally, he added, “She is Mrs. Wei.”

Gu Xiao You was a little flattered. She found it embarrassing for him to introduce her identity so openly, but Mrs. Wei, hehehe, she really liked this form of address. Even with his surname, it felt like they were even closer.

The shop assistant picked out three sets of clothes according to Wei Jing Xing’s request, “Mrs. Wei, please try wearing them.” After knowing his identity, her tone became even more flattering.

Gu Xiao You was still not used to the feeling of being held high above, so she took her clothes and went into the fitting room.

The dresses were exquisite, but the price was simply outrageous. A single gown’s price was comparable to half a year’s worth of her salary.

“You’re crazy!” Gu Xiao You quickly stopped him and pulled him to the side, telling him repeatedly, “These clothes are too expensive, buying one is already luxurious enough, and you still want to buy three?”

“It’s not just this banquet. If there’s a chance in the future, you can try again.” Wei Jing Xing ignored her objections and directly told the shop assistant, “Pack the other two items and take off this one.”

The shop assistant was overjoyed, at the same time, he was full of envy for Gu Xiao You, “Alright, Chief Wei.”

Gu Xiao You couldn’t stop him, and could only take out the card. His heart was bleeding, for such expensive clothes, it wasn’t suitable for normal wear, it wasn’t practical at all.

Unexpectedly, Wei Jing Xing had already taken out another card and gave it to the shop assistant. He had given Gu Xiao You his salary card, but he did not only have a single card.

“You have another card?”

“What, you’re not letting me save some private money?”

“That’s not what I mean. I just feel that since you’ve already given me your salary card, how can I let you spend money to buy clothes for me?”

“So what?”

Gu Xiao You looked at him lovingly, her eyes curved into a crescent moon, “This way, I will feel as if I am being raised by you.”

“En hmph, I’m betting on you to eat, living with you, spending money on you, and yet you’re still unwilling?”

“Yes, very much.”

Feng Jianan was an old general with great reputation. When he was young, his achievements were outstanding. He was also a god-like figure. Unfortunately, an accident had forced him to retreat from the frontline. After that, he had dedicated all his efforts to the military academy’s podium. Now, it could be said that he had a world full of peaches and plums.

Today was his 90th birthday, but his military uniform was still dignified and upright. The ancient military medallions on his chest still looked brand-new, hanging from the top of his body, as if he was narrating the years of war that he had experienced.

Amongst all of his students, he had the best opinion of two people. One was Wei Hong, who later became the head of an army, and the other was Wei Jing Xing.

Feng Lao, my dad is too busy to spare any time, so he asked me to apologize to you on his behalf and to greet you as well. When he arrived, Wei Jing Xing was immediately invited into the resting room by Feng Jianan, and Gu Xiao You followed beside him.

“Alright, but it’s too boring to be at home. It’s my honor for your father to remember me even though he’s so busy. “Jing Xing, it’s been a few years since we last met and you’ve already gotten married. How come I haven’t tasted your wedding wine yet?”

Wei Jing Xing turned his head to look at his wife and said: “Feng Lao, I’m too busy, I don’t have time for the wedding. I brought her here today to let you have a look at her, I’m here to take a look … … She’s called Gu Xiao You, are you satisfied?”

Feng Jianan smiled kindly, “As long as you are satisfied with your wife.”

Gu Xiao You wore a black and white dress. Her hair was tied up behind her ears, making her look dignified and peaceful. This was the first elder that Wei Jing Xing had brought her to meet other than the Wei Family. Furthermore, the other party was an old general with such a high position, she was extremely nervous in her heart as she asked: “Feng Lao, hello.

Gu Xiao You was startled. Almost all the people who knew that they were married said at the same time that it was her fortune to marry Wei Jing Xing, she should not have any complaints, she should be grateful to the other party for burning incense. Even her own family felt the same way.

For a moment, her heart was full of jealousy as well.

Feng Lao continued to speak, “Don’t look at this as an era of peace, but some wars where smoke isn’t visible are even more terrifying. It’s destined that Jing Xing is someone who will be doing great things in the future and needs to hone his skills more often now.

Gu Xiao You shook his head and said: “Not tired, I am unable to help when it comes to work, so I will support him at home.”

Feng Lao nodded his head, feeling gratified. However, thinking about the explosion that happened not long ago, he was once again filled with regret, “The explosion at the parade ground, the officer sacrificed was your soldier?”

It was the same in the army, but anyone who inadvertently mentioned Wang Hong Hu, became silent. In the beginning, a heavy and depressing atmosphere filled the entire army camp, but this heartbroken memory, would accompany every single one of their comrades for life.

“It’s a pity that you’re still so young. For you to be able to find the culprit so quickly, you must be trying to comfort his family. After all, the deceased are already dead and the living still need to live. “Jing Xing, be extremely careful when you go on a mission in the future. You still need to shoulder an even heavier burden.”

“Feng Lao, I understand. I will be careful.”

After chatting for a while, someone knocked on the door and came in. “Feng Lao, almost all the guests have come.

“Alright, let’s go out and meet them.”

With one hand on the walking stick and the other on Wei Jing Xing’s walking stick, Feng Lao insisted on walking out on his own.

When they arrived at the great hall outside, a large group of people gathered around, the older and younger officers brought their families with them. As they paid their respects to the Feng Lao, they didn’t forget to greet Wei Jing Xing, and at the same time, didn’t ignore the Gu Xiao You who was by Wei Jing Xing’s side.

“Mrs. He, I’ve long heard of Wei Family marrying a daughter-in-law, but you don’t believe me. Look, you should believe me today.”

“That shouldn’t be the case, isn’t Chief Wei going along with Principal Zheng’s daughter, Zheng Yi Ge? Why did they suddenly change hands? Which family is she from? ”

“To be able to marry to the Chief Wei, he must have a great background, right?”

The various Madam Chief s were whispering to each other. It was a woman’s nature to gossip, even if it was a noble Madam Chief.
