Chapter 399: Chapter 400: The Ring
At this time, the betrothal gifts sent by Ye Zi’an had also been carried into Yang Chuxia’s room.
Now, Yang Chuxia could finally take a good look at the items Ye Zi’an had prepared, especially that silver thing in the box.
Stars and moons had been made into necklaces, complete with a chain. However, when Yang Chuxia picked it up to take a closer look, the corner of her mouth twitched a little. The reason was that silver was dense, and although it was only a small piece, it was quite heavy. She thought about the bracelets in the mall in her previous life, which weighed only about 20 to 30 grams each, and they felt significant on her wrist. This one or two silver pieces were as heavy as ten such bracelets.
It was clear that these couldn’t be worn as accessories. Similarly, the flame collar was also not suitable to be worn. These items would have to be stored away. Yang Chuxia touched the collar in her hand, thinking that she would have to take good care of these items and pass them on to her children in the future.
Thinking about this, Yang Chuxia chuckled. Brother An was indeed quite resourceful, a silver star, a silver piece shaped like a star, isn’t it just called a silver star?
If Emperor Renzong of Song had such a clever mind back then, he might have been able to marry Eighth Sister Yang.
"Sister, sister..."
By the sound of it, she knew it was Yang Qingrui again.
Yang Chuxia opened the door and saw it was indeed him, "What do you need me for?"
"Brother Zi’an is looking for you."
"He’s looking for me? Where is he now?" Yang Chuxia wondered why he didn’t just come to knock on her door since they were all at home.
"He should be by the small river behind his house." Yang Qingrui replied.
"I see." Yang Chuxia thought for a moment, closed her room door, and then went out.
Ms. Wang didn’t stop her as she saw Yang Chuxia leave. However, noticing that her room door was closed, she went over and locked it with a padlock.
At the riverside, Ye Zi’an was indeed standing there with his back to her.
"Brother An, you were looking for me? Why aren’t you at home?" Yang Chuxia asked with a smile.
Upon hearing her voice, Ye Zi’an hurriedly turned around, "There were too many people at home."
"Pfft..." That boy was indeed honest. "Well, tell me, what the ulterior motive of summoning your sister to this secluded place?"
Ye Zi’an helplessly chuckled, "Xiaxia, you’re younger than me, you should call me Brother Zi’an." Every time this girl was in a good mood, she would either call herself Xiao’an or sister, what kind of titles were those?
"Alright, my dear Brother Zi’an, what do you need me for?" Yang Chuxia changed her address obediently.
"Here, this is for you!" Ye Zi’an handed her a small box.
Yang Chuxia took the box, and even without opening it, she had already guessed what was inside. Her face immediately lit up with a smile, and she opened it to confirm her suspicions. Her grin grew even wider upon seeing the contents.
"Brother An, why did you even prepare this? You’ve already prepared so much before, and this is all silver. It’s such a waste." Despite what she said, the corner of Yang Chuxia’s mouth curled up smugly.
Alright, Xiaxia started to act pretentious. Her heart was clearly very delighted, but she deliberately said those words. Besides, she had wanted a ring before.
Seeing her like this, Ye Zi’an chuckled softly.
"Shall I put it on for you?"
"Won’t it be a little big?"
"No, look, it has an adjustable opening at the bottom." Ye Zi’an took out the ring from the box, and indeed, it had an adjustable opening. Then, he took Yang Chuxia’s hand and asked, "Which finger do you want it on?"
"Middle finger." Of course, the engagement ring should be worn on the middle finger.
"There you go, Xiaxia, it looks lovely on you." Ye Zi’an seemed even livelier now, as he was even able to make romantic remarks anytime and anywhere.
