Seeing Xu Wenlan happily leading Lan Yuying out of the inn, Su Qianle couldn't suppress the joy in her heart. Su Qian'an next to her took a step forward and asked, "Master, shall we go back home now?"
Xia Chu nodded, took a deep look at Bingwen, and saw Bingwen nodded knowingly to leave. Then he turned to Xiao Zimu who was alone and invited him: "Zimu will go with me today, okay?"
Xiao Zimu happily agreed, and Su Qian'an drove the carriage over. Su Qianle stood beside the raven with her head lowered. She originally thought that she could go back with Xia Chu in the carriage today, and she would be able to say a few words alone in the small space.
But now Xiao Zimu was walking with him. She was just a folk girl, and her brother was just the driver. She followed the carriage but didn't dare to get on it.
Xia Chu followed Xiao Zimu into the carriage and saw that Su Qianle did not follow. He turned around and saw her standing next to the raven with lowered eyebrows and an expression of pity on her: "Qianle, why don't you come up?"
Su Qianle's face was filled with joy at first, and then her eyes dimmed again: "I'm afraid of bumping into His Majesty Seventh Prince."
Xiao Zimu stuck his head out when he heard the words: "It doesn't matter, how could Ah Chu be willing to let such a beautiful girl like you show up outside."
Although Xiao Zimu said this to Su Qianle, he was actually making fun of Xia Chu.
Xia Chu didn't refute. Although Xiao Zimu said it jokingly, he was also reasonable. Su Qianle was a weak girl and it was hard to show her face in public. He was afraid that Su Qianle would make excuses and waste time, so he just wanted to ask her. Stretching out his hand: "Come up quickly."
When Xiao Zimu's words reached Su Qianle's ears, it was as if nectar had been poured on the apex of her heart, finally softening her long-suffering heart. And the hand Xia Chu stretched out at this moment was even more so on the apex of her heart. On the top, a lush and towering tree rose from the ground in an instant.
"Miss, you should hurry up." Shuanglu beside her was more eager than she was, urging her hurriedly.
Su Qianle shyly stretched out her hand and followed Xia Chu's pull to get into the car lightly.
On the way back home, although Xia Chu and Xiao Zimu kept talking and had no time to talk to her, Su Qianle could sit next to the young master so close that she could hear his breathing. Already feel satisfied.
Of the three teams that set out from the inn, only Xiao Mubai and Zhao Xingwen walked smoothly. Both of them stayed in the military camp all year round. They didn't want to feel burdened by riding in a carriage, so it was better to come on horseback. Habit.
Therefore, they walk relatively much faster.
When Zhao Xingwen returned to his house, he was first scolded by General Zhao. The more he scolded him, the more annoyed he became. General Zhao even wanted to kick him.
Zhao Xingwen pursed his lips and reminded in a low voice: "His Royal Highness King Mo is here too, grandpa."
Old General Zhao finally suppressed his temper and ordered his servants to serve tea.
Originally, the reason why Zhao Xingwen moved to Mingxiang Garden in the first place was because the family was full of female relatives and there was no one to drink with him, so it was really boring for him to stay there.
But it was the same reason that General Zhao was put there, so he could only ask Mr. Xiahou and Huo Tianxiu to come over from time to time to accompany him to get over his alcohol addiction.
These three people were in the same boat when they got together. Huo Tianxiu was a little better. There was a young Huo Wenkang in the mansion who he asked to discipline. However, the Marquis and Old General Zhao really lost some popularity in the mansion.
When Zhao Xingwen saw the old general Zhao who was blowing his beard and glaring at him, he did not dare to drag him to the banquet at this moment and winked at Xiao Mubai.
Although Xiao Mubai opened his mouth, he didn't mention the banquet at all. Instead, he and General Zhao studied the art of war. The two chatted happily, completely leaving the stunned Zhao Xingwen aside. .
At this time, Xu Wenlan and Lan Yuying in another carriage were still stuck on the road. They were really stuck in the middle of the road. The street was crowded with people. By the time Xu Wenlan returned home, they were almost stuck.
Such a long journey actually took more than an hour.
When the servants sent word that Xu Wenlan was returning home, Master Xu didn't even know that Lan Yuying was also following him.
Therefore, he scolded him from the study room to the outside: "Little bastard, didn't you say you wouldn't be with your father tonight?"
Xu Wenlan led Lan Yuying into the house, with a smug look on his face, and said to Xu Wanjun who was looking down at the account books: "Father, do you think who I invited to my house?"
Xu Wanjun snorted. If the prince had already announced the news, who else would be worthy of his attention
Therefore, he looked careless and unconcerned.
"Who else could it be?" As soon as Xu Wanjun finished speaking, he looked up and saw a graceful girl in a blue dress.
Lan Yuying took off her veil and bowed to him: "I have met Mr. Xu."
Xu Wanjun looked happy and quickly told her not to be polite. He looked at Xu Wenlan with a hint of admiration, what a good boy, why did he lure his daughter-in-law back to the house.
Xu Wanjun took Lan Yuying and chatted about domestic affairs. The more he looked at it, the more satisfied he became.
It wasn't until Mrs. Xu heard that her son had brought a beautiful woman back and sent her maid to ask for her, that Xu Wanjun let them go to Mrs. Xu's place to let her have a look.
Xia Chu took Xiao Zimu back to the Hou Mansion. Although the Marquis was very happy, when Xia Chu asked him to go to the banquet in the evening, the Marquis shook his head and refused.
What bothered him the most in his life was the insincerity and coercion in officialdom, and Xia Chu didn't want to tell him directly that there was a big show waiting for you to watch in the evening. Wouldn't this be a surprise
Therefore, Xia Chu thought about it and said to the Marquis: "How about playing a game of chess, and if you lose, you can join us?"
The Marquis snorted coldly: "You have tricked me once, how can you, my father, fall into trouble twice in the same place?"
Xia Chu frowned and pouted, with a sad look on his face. He didn't like the Marquis. Just when he didn't know how to persuade him, he caught a glimpse of Cong Ting standing next to the Marquis.
Xia Chu's eyes flashed and he had a plan in mind: "Let's let Cong Ting compete with Raven. If he loses, you have to accompany me."
"What if you lose?" Mr. Hou sneered. Although Cong Ting was not a secret guard, his skills were not inferior to Bian Ding's.
"If I lose, I will move back to my house and stay with you every day." Xia Chu promised with a smile on his face.
After hearing this, the Marquis stroked his beard and said to Cong Ting: "You also heard it. If you dare to deliberately lose to his people, I will skin you carefully."
Cong Ting bowed his hands and said with a smile: "I should leave the young master as the marquis."
The Marquis nodded with satisfaction: "Go ahead, be gentle and don't hurt his people."
Cong Ting responded yes, and Xia Chu heard the words and said to Raven: "You heard it too, be gentle, don't hurt my old man's people."
Xiao Zimu held his forehead next to him and glanced at Cong Ting sympathetically. After hearing this, the Marquis laughed out loud. He felt that Xia Chu was young after all, and he didn't know the depth of Cong Ting, but this was good, at least I can get him back to live in the house. As soon as he thought about it, the Marquis said with a smile.
"Then let's get started."
Today is the last day of 2020. I wish all the babies all the best in 2021 and all their wishes come true (send a bow). Babies who can see these words are even more grateful for your support (bow). This is my first book. The previous chapters are quite unfamiliar (shy), but you can still catch up to this point. This is my motivation to keep writing (mom)!
