When Xu Wenlan saw that Xia Chu actually sat down opposite him, a look of astonishment appeared on his face, and he turned to look at Lan Yuying suspiciously.
Lan Yuying met his searching gaze and shook her head slightly, indicating that she didn't know either.
Ever since Xia Chu came in, Xu Wenlan had been accustomed to waiting for him to show off. In the past, when Xia Chu saw him, he would inevitably tease him a few times, because he felt that he stayed in the Hou Mansion all day long, and those who didn't know thought he was the legitimate son of the Hou Mansion. .
But today not only did she not say a word, she even nodded to him as a greeting.
Not only that, I didn’t even take my seat away from him.
You know, from the first day on, at the long table in the hall of the Hou Mansion, Mr. Hou naturally sat at the main seat, Xia Chu sat below him on the right, pulled Lan Yuying to sit next to him, Xu Wenlan naturally I sat at the end on the right next to Lan Yuying.
The Marquis thought it was inappropriate to sit like this, so he asked Xu Wenlan to sit on the left side. Xu Wenlan was not willing to obey, and he would just stay by Lan Yuying's side anyway.
Therefore, when the four of them ate together, the left side was always empty, and all three of them sat in one place.
The Marquis couldn't speak, so he didn't bother to say it. After a few times, he got used to it.
Fortunately today, Xia Chu actually took the initiative to sit on the left side with Su Qianle.
Xu Wenlan didn't know that Xia Chu had just experienced it last night, and he frowned and felt that there was no way to get rid of it.
Therefore, after meeting Xu Wenlan today, Xia Chu suddenly understood why he was always so bored and reluctant to leave every time he left.
The Marquis didn't think much about it, but felt that Xia Chu was quite sensible today. If Su Qianle were to sit alone on the left, it would inevitably look a little awkward.
Although Su Qianle sat next to Xia Chu, she never took the initiative to speak to him, but she frequently made the Marquis smile.
After finishing the meal, Su Qianle stood up and left. The Marquis greeted her and invited her to come to Hengwu Courtyard for a meal when she was free.
Su Qianle meekly responded with a yes, then bowed and was about to leave. Xia Chu chased her out and called out to her back: "Qian Le."
Su Qianle stopped and looked back, wiping the corners of her lips with a smile and asked sweetly: "What's the matter, young master?"
Xia Chu's face was startled. He always felt that there was something different about Su Qianle, but he couldn't explain that feeling. Maybe a girl grew up suddenly after experiencing heartbreak. Wasn't it the same for him back then.
Xia Chu immediately felt relieved and said to her: "I also want to go back to Yunqiyuan, and I happen to be traveling with you."
The smile on Su Qianle's lips grew wider, but her gaze retracted, her head slightly lowered, waiting for him to come forward and compare, then turned around and walked together.
The two of them walked for half the way, speechless all the way. Xia Chu pinched his eyebrows and looked for something to say: "Is it boring to stay in Su Yuan all day?"
Su Qianle walked with lotus steps, walking in a dignified manner, looking straight ahead. She heard his question in her ears, and did not turn around to look over. Instead, she calmly replied: "It's okay, read a book, do embroidery, take it seriously." If you are bored, you can go find Wen Shu to relieve your boredom."
Xia Chu looked at her calm expression as she replied, and a thought suddenly came to her mind: "Does Qianle want to learn to dance?"
Su Qianle turned her head and looked over this time. She frowned slightly: "It's not that I don't want to, but I'm practicing martial arts at this age. Why can't I be like my brother?"
Xia Chu knew that she had misunderstood, and immediately smiled and explained: "It's not martial arts, it's dancing."
Su Qian said happily: "Dancing?"
Xia Chu nodded: "You have thin and slender bones and a light body, which is very suitable for dancing. Besides, I am also worried that you will be bored in Suyuan all day long. Of course, if you don't like it, you can..."
"I like it. Since the young master mentioned it, he must have already found a candidate for Qian Le's master." Su Qian Le interrupted, with a hint of cunning on her face after speaking.
There was a hint of praise on Xia Chu's face: "I just came up with it on the spur of the moment. I heard that Xian Li was planning to accept a disciple. I happened to bump into you today so I came to ask if you were interested."
Su Qianle bowed and said, "If I can get Xianli as my master, I would certainly be happy to ask for it. Qianle would like to thank the young master in advance."
Xia Chu originally wanted to give her a hand, but when he remembered that his outstretched hand was frozen there, he gave up and said to her, "Get up, it doesn't matter whether you have achieved something or not, the main thing is to relieve your boredom."
Su Qianle stood up, but still lowered her eyelids: "Yes, Master Youlao is worried about it."
Xia Chu didn't know what else to say, so he sighed for a long time: "Let's go."
Su Yuan is more remote than Yunqi Yuan. Su Qianle took the initiative to leave after passing Yunqi Yuan. Xia Chu waved her hand and did not see her off. When she returned to Yunqi Yuan, she told Raven that he would go out in the afternoon and take her with him. Just stay with Su Qian'an.
Since Han Sa had to come to him on time in the afternoon to be beaten, he didn't have to follow him.
The raven glanced at him up and down, then turned and walked towards the room, as if he agreed.
Xia Chu asked Mo Xiang to prepare some gifts, then took Su Qian'an out and went straight to Yixiang Building.
Li Xinlan was quite surprised to see him. Hearing that he was here to see Xian Li, she told him that Xian Li had gone to Mingxiang Garden to see Bingwen. Xia Chu jumped in and chatted with Li Xinlan.
Li Xinlan told him that Yuqiao had gradually let Yuqiao take care of many matters in this building. Xia Chu knew what she was thinking, so he smiled and said hello. When Yuqiao could take charge of her own business, he asked Li Xinlan to come back. Come to yourself.
Li Xinlan smiled broadly and asked him if he wanted to stay in the building to eat and wait for Xian Li to come back. Xia Chu waved his hand and said no, got up and left, planning to go to Mingxiang Garden to find Xian Li directly.
Li Xinlan didn't stop him and gave him a salute. Xia Chu went to the backyard and jumped over the wall with ease.
On the way to Mingxiang Garden, I didn't expect to meet Ao Dengge Rile and Shi Jiaying at the corner of the street.
At the beginning of the summer, he didn't want to cause more troubles, but Aodenge Rile recognized him when he was chasing Xiao Yanjun in the spring breeze on the night of Chinese Valentine's Day. He was not willing to let him go and called him out.
"This princess remembers that you are the young marquis?" Aodenge Rile stepped forward to block his way, stood in front of him, and asked with his head tilted.
Xia Chu laughed in his heart. He didn't want to alert Xiao Yanjun to an incident before his wedding.
Who would have thought that trouble would arise on its own initiative.
He put his hands behind his back, looked at her from bottom to top, and finally snorted.
Aodenge Rile was here to make trouble. Seeing his disdainful and arrogant attitude, he could not hold back any longer. He immediately reprimanded: "You are so bold to not be polite when you see this princess."
Si Nan was sent by Xiao Yanjun to protect Aodengelile. When he saw her rushing in front of Xia Chu, he followed her, but he was unable to stop her from speaking.
Xia Chu glanced at Shi Jiaying and Cha Gan who were following behind, and finally fixed his eyes on Aodenge Rile's face and asked softly.
"Are you worthy?"
