Chapter 190 190: This is not the woman he can be courteous to ([-] more)
"It's nothing, I'm happy to see you for my mother," Qin said whitewashing Taiping, "Your brother is injured, you can go and see him later and show your brotherhood."

"Brother Jiu was injured?" Xie Xu exclaimed, "How did you get hurt?"

Qin didn't dare to say that she stabbed him, but could only vaguely say that she was injured accidentally, and let the matter go, trying not to make her younger son suspicious.

Seeing that his mother's mood had calmed down, Xie Xu stopped worrying, "Then I'll go to the front yard to visit Brother Jiu first, and come back to accompany my mother for dinner."

"Go." Qin stroking the face of her youngest son, said lovingly.

Only then did Xie Xu salute and leave, then turned around and left for the front yard.

"Mother Zhong, I want to re-dress."

When Grandma Zhong heard this order, the huge stone in her heart fell to the ground, and she thought about dressing up, which meant that this matter was over, "Yes, ma'am, I will arrange it right away."

Qin Shi looked at herself in the mirror, she really had to cheer up, she still had a young son to take care of, Xie He was not a man, she had to be a good mother.

When Xie Xu was going to the front yard, he passed by the path in front of the moon gate of the small courtyard where Mrs. Chang lived, and he couldn't help being stunned. When he heard the news, his mood fell to the bottom instantly.

He really didn't expect such a beautiful woman to have such a cruel fate. To be honest, he didn't look down on her because of this, but felt more pity for her. It's not his turn to ask for warmth.

That night, he fled directly back to the academy. He wanted to save her from the flames, but he was afraid of angering his elder brother and mother. His heart was in torment, so he could only choose not to face it.

If his father hadn't sent someone to pick him up this time, he would definitely want to escape again, after all, this was the first time in his life that his heart was moved.

Not wanting to think about it anymore, he turned around and left as if running away, this is not a woman he can show his courteousness to.

When he arrived in the front yard, he had already sorted out his emotions, making sure that no one would see the clues, even his expression was done, but as soon as he entered, he saw the woman who made his heart flutter sitting beside his brother. In front of the bed, the two were talking. Although they were not close, the atmosphere between them was good. It seemed that they were getting along very well.

This made him stunned on the spot, unable to find his own voice for a while.

"When did Master Xie Shi come back?" Chang Xi stood up and saluted.

After finishing her work at the tea brick workshop, she originally wanted to go straight back to Xiaokuayuan, but Xie Jin sent Zhou Nan to find her, so she turned a corner and came here first.

Before he could say a few words, Xie Xu came.

Seeing this young man, she wasn't surprised. Master Xie Si called him back to stabilize Qin's mood. It was a smart way. Humans always have things they care about in this world. Who can really do it? Want nothing?

Xie Xu immediately returned the salute in a hurry, and after a while he found his voice, "Chang...is the lady here to visit Brother Nine?"

"Exactly." Chang Xi responded generously with a smile, turning a blind eye to the young man's bewilderment just now. This young man is actually quite cute. Although he is not as good-looking as Xie Jin, his white appearance is still very pleasing.

Xie Jin and Xie Xu have been brothers for so many years, and they still watched him grow up. How could he not see his embarrassment and unnaturalness at this time?
Last time, he saw that Xie Xu had an unusual interest in Chang Xi, so he directly reminded Xie Xu to prevent him from indulging in it. After all, he and Chang Xi had no future.

Sure enough, the young man was still hit, and went back to the academy the next day without having too much contact with Chang Xi.

However, when we met again this time, he found that Xie Xu's feelings for Chang Xi didn't seem to dissipate, but instead settled down. This was not a situation he liked, and he frowned unconsciously.

Chang Xi wasn't interested in Xie Xu, nor did she have any interest in teasing young people, so she said, "Master Xie Jiu, then I'll go back to the backyard first, you two brothers can talk."

Xie Jin was very satisfied with Chang Xi's initiative to avoid suspicion, and nodded immediately, "I'll ask Zhou Nan to invite you later."

Chang Xi responded with a smile, then nodded with Xie Xu, and she left first.

Xiaotao hurriedly followed Chang Xi, and felt that someone was watching from behind. She turned her head curiously, and saw Mr. Xie Shi staring at the back of them leaving. His gaze seemed somewhat unreal melancholy.

It wasn't until Master Xie Jiu called out that Master Xie Shi looked away and stepped forward to care about Master Xie's condition.

Chang Xi never looked back, nor did he wait for Xiaotao, and continued to walk steadily towards Xiaokuayuan.

When Xiaotao was distracted, she realized that Mrs. Chang had gone far away, so she hurriedly chased after her.

"Miss Chang, wait for me."

Chang Xi didn't deliberately slow down, which made Xiao Tao gasping for breath after chasing her.

"Have you learned your lesson?" Chang Xi raised her eyebrows and smiled.

Only then did Xiaotao realize that Chang Xi did it on purpose. At first she didn't understand, but later she realized that it was because she looked back at Xie Shiye, so she hurriedly explained, "Ms. Chang, don't get me wrong, I don't have thoughts about Xie Shiye. , I'm just... just curious..."

Curious why he looked at your back like that, but she dared not say that, for fear of making Chang Xi unhappy.

Chang Xi said while walking, "Xiao Tao, don't worry, I won't misunderstand."

Of course she knew that Xiaotao was not interested in Xie Xu. During this period of time, Xiaotao was dealing with the affairs of the tea brick workshop, and her whole body had settled down, so she would not be so short-sighted and wanted to challenge the Xie family's rule of not taking concubines.

She just felt Xie Xu's strange affection for her, and couldn't help being a little curious.

It is precisely because of these feelings that she wants to avoid suspicion. She doesn't want to be rumored to be ugly, and she doesn't want to make enemies of the Xie family.

Xiaotao has followed Chang Xi for such a long time, so she can naturally feel a little bit about her emotions, and she has some guesses in her heart. It is because Mr. Xie Shiye looked at Mrs. Chang's eyes wrongly, that's why Mrs. Chang did this, and she made a mistake. A mistake, should not look back curiously.

This kind of thing should not be pointed out, otherwise it will be Mrs. Chang who is unlucky.

After thinking it over, she moved closer to Chang Xi and said in a low voice, "Miss Chang, I won't make such a mistake in the future."

"Children can be taught." Chang Xi praised.

Xiaotao pursed her lips and smiled when she heard that, she liked Mrs. Chang's compliments on her.

"Miss Chang, that John is no longer fit to stay in the village." This time she took the initiative to mention John to Chang Xi.

Chang Xi admired Xiaotao's move in his heart, "Tell me about it."

"I found out that he approached me for some other purpose. I wasn't sure before. I kept testing him to see if he would show his feet..." Xiaotao had a serious round face at this moment.
