No need to show default values in username and password text box. Change your control load event as given below.

private void UserControl1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    txtboxUserName.Text = "";
    txtboxPassword.Text = "";
}

Now i assume you want textbox and password value on some other event like button click event. In button click event check if username and password values are not empty then use those other wise default values as shown below.

private void ButtonClick(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
     string userName = String.IsNullOrEmpty(txtboxUserName.Text) ? "Khawar" : txtboxUserName.Text;
     string password = String.IsNullOrEmpty(txtboxPassword.Text) ? "123456" : txtboxPassword.Text;
}

Do you mean this?

var userName = String.IsNullOrEmpty(txtboxUserName.Text) ? "Khawar" : txtboxUserName.Text
