Chapter 120 Returning to Xue Mansion

After leaving Fanlou, the group of people did not rush back, but just wandered around in the street.

At this moment, the lights are on, and it is also a beautiful scene.

The three of them found a place to sit by the river.

In front of the eyes is the wide river surface reflecting the lights of thousands of houses, and in the ears are the cries of hawkers and the sound of pedestrians laughing and fighting, full of fireworks in the market.

Just watching it, and actually being in it are two completely different feelings.

"The man just now must be the young master of the Yang family from Yangzhou." Xue Chen bent down and picked up a small stone. With a little force on his wrist, the stone plopped into the river in front of him, stirring up a piece of broken gold.

Jing Xing hummed: "I've heard that Young Master Yang is a prodigal, but now I know that the rumors are true."

Xue Chen sneered, shook his head and said nothing.

The Yang family is like a local dragon in Yangzhou, and there are not many families in Yangzhou who dare to oppose them, even if the government sees them, they have to be courteous.

Because the Yang family is really too rich.

Yangzhou was born and prospered because of the canal.

The Yang family is a well-known leader of water transport in the local area, holding several important piers in their hands. If his family is unhappy and gets angry, even the government's boats will not stop, so the government has to rush to coax them After all, the Yang family's temper has naturally become stronger day by day, and until now, they have been restless in the capital.

However, no matter how horizontal it is, it is also in Yangzhou.

It's in the capital now.

When the local dragon in Yangzhou arrives in the capital, it still has to coil around obediently, otherwise, not to mention anything else, the Youxiangfu's family alone is enough for the Yang family to have a good drink.

It's a pity that Young Master Yang doesn't seem to understand this truth.

"Young Master Yang?" Xue Shu narrowed her eyes slightly, "The eldest son of the Yang family is called Yang Wenxi?"

"How does Shu'er know?" Jing Xing looked at her in surprise.

A little girl like Xue Shu has been raised in the capital and has never even traveled far. How could she know the name of the Yang family thousands of miles away?
"I've heard of it."

Not only heard, but also seen.

In the previous life, Yang Wenxi failed the scientific examination and missed the title of the gold list. When he drank alcohol on the side of the road to relieve his worries, he was comforted by Chu Chu. After returning, Yang Wenxi worked hard and tried again three years later.

Since then, Yang Wenxi has stayed in the capital, accompanying Chu Chu.

Behind Yang Wenxi is the wealthy Yang family, so he has become an inexhaustible purse of money.

Or is it said that Chu Chu is a destined person?
If you spread your kindness casually, you can get dozens or even hundreds of times in return.

For such a great good thing, ordinary people would be so excited and grateful once they saw it, but she was so good that she never stopped at all.

But the current Chuchu is very different from the previous Chuchu, and Xue Shu doesn't know whether the current Chuchu will show her kindness to the people on the side of the road.

Xue Shu wanted to see it with her own eyes.

A look of anticipation gradually appeared on her face.

Jing Xing kept looking at her, his eyes darkened: "Shu'er seems to be very interested in that Mr. Yang?"

"That's natural," Xue Shu glanced at him, "I heard that Mr. Yang is very romantic and suave, and he is very different from this young Mr. Yang who is heartless. Such a person... um."

Before she could finish her sentence, Jing Xing blocked her with a piece of pastry.

Xue Chen smiled and shook his head: "Be careful, don't choke."

Having said that, he knew in his heart that Jing Xing must have a sense of proportion in his strikes, and said ten thousand steps back, even if Jing Xing choked himself to death, he would not let Xue Shu choke.

Xue Shu spat out the pastry angrily, then, seeing the opportunity, twisted a piece from the box, and stuffed it into Jing Xing's mouth in retaliation.

Jing Xing seemed to have been waiting for her to feed him a long time ago, he opened his mouth to catch the pastry with an elegant posture, without any embarrassment.

Therefore, this action, which was originally full of revenge, added a touch of ambiguity.

"!" Xue Shu's eyes widened immediately.

Xue Chen helped his forehead helplessly.

This silly younger sister of his family is not Jing Xing's opponent at all, how will she live in the future...

The three of them sat by the river for a while, seeing that the dew was getting deeper, they got up and left, each going back to their respective homes.

*
Early the next morning, Xue Lu ordered his servants to start packing.

Xue Chen has already left the customs, so naturally they can't continue to live in the Hou's Mansion. Now, it's better to go back to Xue's Mansion as soon as possible.

Otherwise, the palace would be really unhappy.

Although everyone in the Lu family was reluctant, Xue Lushi had lived at home for a long time, so even if they were reluctant, they could only watch helplessly as Xue Lushi and others packed up their things and left.

On the way back to Xue's mansion, Xue Shu was always depressed.

Xue Lushi and Xue Chen looked at each other and sighed.

Xue Shu is not the only one who doesn't want to go back to Xue's mansion.

The carriage drove smoothly all the way, not fast.

But the road is so long, no matter how slow it is, there will be an end.

The carriage stopped slowly, and before everyone in the car could adjust their expressions, the door was suddenly pushed open, and then there was a joyous voice: "Ah Qin! Chen'er, Shu'er, come down quickly !"

Xue Yue smiled like a flower at the moment, the creases on his face were squeezed out, it looked a little ridiculous.

Xue Lushi closed her eyes, then avoided Xue Yue, and got out of the carriage with Zhang Mama's hand.

Then, she didn't stay any longer, and went directly into the mansion with Zhang's mother.

I don't even bother to do a little superficial harmony.

Xue Chen and Xue Shu got out of the carriage one after another, and entered the mansion without saying a word, tacitly leaving Xue Yue where they were.

During the Chinese New Year, Xue Yue brought a concubine to the Marquis Mansion for a hundred years, Xue Chen still hadn't forgotten it, so how could he give him a good face at this moment.

All of these people regarded him as non-existent, and the smile on Xue Yue's face could hardly be maintained.

However, considering that he was still outside and outsiders were present, Xue Yue took a lot of effort to calm down the anger surging in his chest, and entered the mansion with a smile on his face.

He wanted to talk to Xue Chen and ask him how his preparations for the exam were going, but Xue Chen didn't seem to hear his voice, he kept walking, side by side with Xue Shu, the two brothers and sisters went straight into the backyard .

Xue Yue froze in place again.

He also has a temper and arrogance. Seeing that the attitudes of the three of them were more indifferent than the other, and he couldn't do the thing of sticking a hot face to a cold butt, so he flicked his sleeves and went back to the study.

In the evening, no matter whether it was just a formality or out of sincerity, in short, the mansion prepared a very sumptuous dinner.

Xue Yue even took out all the good wine that he had treasured for many years, waiting to have a drink with Xue Chen at the dinner table in the evening, so as to repair the relationship between father and son.

Unexpectedly, he waited and waited, waited and waited, until the food on the table was cold and reheated several times, but none of the three women came over.

So, Xue Yue called Su Mu and told him to go to the backyard to inquire.

Only then did he know that the three mothers had already had their dinner.

At this moment, the lights in the main courtyard were all off.

... It would be better not to inquire.
