Xia Jiu'er finally chose two hairpins and a pair of earrings. As the young owner of Jinxiufang, Chu Han gave them to Xia Jiu'er with a wave of his big hand, and before leaving, Xu Lu laughed and teased Chu Han. : "If I had known that Princess Rongping of our family is so generous, I would have chosen two."
Chu Han said very generously: "Choose, anyway, it's all your uncle's stuff, so you, a niece, can take whatever you want."
Xia Jiu'er next to him smiled and said, "Let's go to your restaurant for dinner later and have a look. I didn't pay any money today, so I went straight home without even eating and taking."
Xu Lu pinched Xia Jiu'er: "Sister Xia is talking nonsense again, we should share yours and mine."
"I'm just talking." Xia Jiu'er smiled and avoided Xu Lu's hand, took Chu Han's arm and yelled that she wanted to go shopping at the cloth shop. It happened that Chu Han also wanted to buy some cloth and go home to cut spring shirts , Xu Lu also wanted to buy some thread and go back to play with the net, so the three of them went happily, and when they left, no one was empty-handed.
After leaving the cloth shop, the three of them went to see the spices and so on. It was already afternoon when Chu Han came out, and it was almost dark after visiting a few shops. Because of Xia Jiuer's joke just now, Xu Lu took them Went to my restaurant.
During the meal, Chu Han heard that Xiao Er said that there was peach blossom wine just delivered, so he asked Xiao Er to serve a pot. During this time, Xu Lu kept telling the two of them not to drink too much, but no one listened. Yes, two people divided a jug of wine.
Although the Peach Blossom Brewing has no strength, Chu Han's cheeks are still flushed from drunk, and his eyes are a little blurred. Xia Jiu'er has been fed wine by Zhong Ning since she was a child, but now she is not much better.
Seeing Chu Han sitting there looking straight at the wine glass, Xu Lu felt a headache, and was still thinking about how she should explain to her aunt that her cousin drank too much.
After the three of them had finished eating, the night had already fallen, people from the Xia family and Prince Jin's residence came to pick up their little master, and people from the Xu family also came, but it was Xu Jing who came.
It would have been fine to send the lady guard to pick up this kind of thing, but Xu Jing heard that Chu Han was there, so she came in person.
Xu Jing is two years older than Chu Han, and the two are also childhood sweethearts. They played together when they were young. After growing up, although it hinders the relationship between men and women, they are not as close as before, but as they get older, Xu Jing is also pleased with this cousin who grew up together.
It was better in the restaurant, but when he saw the wind just outside the door of the restaurant, Chu Han suddenly felt dizzy.
She held Qingzhi's hand tightly, regretting that she had drank a few more cups of peach blossom wine just now because she was greedy for sweetness. She was never drunk like this when she tasted a few cups at home... But Xia Jiu'er happened to be a little drunk at this time. Nothing happened, it seems that her drinking capacity really followed her mother and concubine.
Xu Lu went out and saw Xu Jing, and immediately waved: "Brother, we are here."
Xu Jing was originally standing in front of the carriage, but the first thing she did when she heard this was to look for Chu Han in the crowd.
When Chu Han heard Xu Lu's voice, he also raised his head and looked out, and sure enough, he saw Xu Jing not far away, holding Qing Zhi's hand, he walked towards Xu Jing and said with a blessing, "Hello, cousin. "
Xu Jingxu helped Chu Han up, looked at her blushing cheeks, and smelled the faint aroma of wine on her body, and knew that she had been drinking.
"Have you been drinking?" Xu Jing lowered her head and asked Chu Han softly. The warm voice made people feel like spring breeze when they heard it.
Chu Han nodded, stretched out his hand to compare and said with a smile: "I just drank a little, I'm not drunk."
Chu Han kept pretending to be calm, but in Xu Jing's eyes, the little girl was giggling.
Xu Jing's eyes were always glued to Chu Han, and Xia Jiu'er came over to say hello to Xu Jing, and Xu Jing asked Xu Lu after a half salute, "Why didn't you stop your cousin? Uncle will be to blame."
Xu Lu said: "I stopped, but I didn't stop."
Xu Jing also knew the temperament of her cousin, so she didn't say anything, but said to Chu Han, "I'll take you back."
Chu Han shook his head and refused: "No need, Jiu'er and I will drop by, we can go back together."
"Drinking like this, how can I let you go back by yourself?" Xu Jing's eyebrows and eyes were full of concern, and Chu Han looked a little uncomfortable.
She is also a big girl, Xu Jing's affection for her... She also felt a little bit, but she only regarded Xu Jing as a cousin, so she always kept a distance from Xu Jing on purpose.
Chu Han still refused: "There are so many guards from the two families, it's fine, don't worry, cousin."
Chu Han's voice was delicate and soft, and Xu Jing felt his whole heart soften when he heard it. He never had the heart to refuse Chu Han's requests.
Xia Jiu'er next to him also said: "That's right, I'll send Han'er back in a while, Mr. Xu, don't worry."
They all said that, and Xu Jing had no reason to insist any longer, so he had to take a step back and said, "I'll take you to the carriage."
Chu Han nodded. When she walked forward, she felt that she was quite awake. She walked straight, but in Qingzhi's eyes, her girl was already staggering. Qingzhi finally helped Chu Han, but Chu Han She didn't care about the road at all when walking, and she staggered suddenly, almost tripping over the stones under her feet.
Xu Jing was walking next to Chu Han. Seeing Chu Han staggering, he subconsciously supported Chu Han. Chu Han was already a little drunk, and her footsteps were weak. Coupled with the slip of the stone, she immediately threw herself into Xu Jing's body. in the arms.
Smelling the faint fragrance of the girl in her arms, Xu Jing's heart was beating thumpingly, and she was so nervous that she didn't know why.
Although Chu Han was drunk, her basic sense was still there. She immediately took Qing Zhi's hand and stood up, thanking Xu Jing: "Thank you, cousin."
The beauty left her arms, Xu Jing's tense body just now was considered relaxed, he smiled slightly at Chu Han, and then said to Qing Zhi: "Help the girl well."
"Yes." Qing Zhi replied, and then helped Chu Han into the carriage. Seeing that Chu Han was so drunk, Xia Jiu'er followed her into the same carriage.
"Be careful on the road." Xu Lu stood beside the carriage and told Xia Jiu'er.
Xia Jiu'er nodded again and again: "Well, don't worry, I'm here."
Xu Lu smiled and said, "I don't feel at ease just because you are here."
Xia Jiu'er gave Xu Lu an angry look, then looked back at Chu Han who was sitting in the corner leaning against Qing Zhi with her eyes closed, and said to Xia Jiu'er, "Let's go now."
Xu Lu nodded, and took a few steps back to give the carriage room to move.
The carriage moved slowly, but Xu Jing had been standing still and looking at the slowly leaving carriage with his hands behind his back, his eyes glued to the body of the carriage.
Xu Lu stood on tiptoe and stood in front of her elder brother: "The carriage is almost gone, what are you looking at?"
Only then did Xu Jing come back to his senses, and said, "Let's go."
"Look at your worthless appearance." Xu Lu smiled and walked in the direction of her carriage.
Xu Jing smiled and said nothing, but her eyes still involuntarily glanced in the direction where the carriage disappeared.
