Sugar Jar [Rebirth]

Shi Lin returned to his room, and there were servants beside him packing his bags as ordered.

Mrs. Shi had already sent someone to help them. Those who helped them pack their luggage were all her confidantes, and they were able to do things with ease.

Shi Lin glanced at it, then sat aside, quietly flipping through the books.

Not long after, a nun asked, "Young master, do I need to put these in the bag?"

Holding two copybooks in her hand, she looked at him questioningly.

Shi Lin's eyes fell slightly on her hand, and his mind was slightly distracted.

It was given to Xi Xin by him before, but was sent back later. Shi Lin didn't know what happened to him at that time. He could tell the truth, but he chose to hide it. Instead, he told him that it was left by Xi Xi.

After Xi Xin returned the item, she probably knew it belonged to him.

Shi Lin withdrew his gaze and said lightly, "Take them away together."

After hearing this, Mammy nodded silently, and then put the copybook in properly.

After an unknown amount of time, I suddenly heard someone report from outside: "Master, Liu Ruohan has something to see."

Shi Lin looked at the servants who were tidying up their things, turned his head and ordered to the outside: "Let him in."

He asked his servants to take Liu Ruohan to the side courtyard, and then he also walked there.

Before Shi Lin could speak, he heard Liu Ruohan say: "My lord, I want to stay in the Hou's residence."

Shi Lin's eyes narrowed slightly, but he smiled: "You want to stay?"

Liu Ruohan looked straight at him without backing down, "Yes, I want to stay here."

It's not that Liu Ruohan doesn't know what Guozijian means, even if he goes there as a book boy, even if he leaves the Hou's mansion in the future, his worth will be different from before.But he doesn't want to.

His friend is here.

What's more, he and Shi Lin looked at each other with disgust, and after what happened with Zhou Anhao, the young master became even more jealous of him.

Liu Ruohan never cared about these things, if possible, he also wanted to be an ordinary book boy, or even a servant.

"I never thought of taking you away." Shi Lin said calmly.

Facing Liu Ruohan's unexpected gaze, he only looked indifferent, and there was no trace of abnormality on his face.

"If you want to talk about the reason," Shi Lin explained slowly, and said casually, "That is, I have not liked you for a long time."

Liu Ruohan looked at him incredulously like looking at a lunatic.

Shi Lin envied that he could make friends with Xi Xin, and that the two could communicate without any grievances like friends.When that boy looked at Liu Ruohan, his eyes were always close and soft.

Unlike myself, every time I meet, all I hear is a respectful and polite "Master".

Shi Lin felt that such a self was a bit ridiculous, but it had to be said that this was the truest thought in his heart.

He, jealous of his book boy, can be so close to Xi Xin.

And myself and Xi Xin are not even friends.

Hearing Shi Lin's words, Liu Ruohan was obviously relieved. When he heard the news that he was leaving the Hou's Mansion, he was always worried whether he would also leave with this young master. After all, he was still Shi Lin's bookboy on the surface. .

Although they have never really spent time together, in the eyes of outsiders, Liu Ruohan still represents the status of the son's companion.

Liu Ruohan saluted Shi Lin respectfully.

"Here is the little one, thank the eldest son for his kindness."

Since Shi Lin was leaving the next day, Mrs. Shi specially asked the mansion to prepare a farewell banquet for him to see him off.

I don't know how she persuaded Jing Kehou. When he learned that his son was leaving the Hou's mansion, Lord Shi Hou didn't have much expression on his face, and when Mrs. Shi went to order the people to prepare the banquet, he also He just nodded and obeyed his wife's wishes.

Mrs. Shi didn't want too many people to disturb her, so basically it was a family banquet.

When she explained, she told the servants to remember to notify Shi Chen and bring Xi Xin over when the time comes.

Hearing the master's words, the servants were all a little surprised. Although they knew that the master in the mansion attached great importance to the bookboy named Xi Xin, they never expected that at such a banquet symbolizing a family feast, the young man Can actually have a place.

They were surprised in their hearts, but they didn't dare to show it on their faces. After obeying the order, they immediately went to work.

Mrs. Shi flipped through the list, thinking about the things she needed to do in the past few days, her brows were slightly frowned, as if she was a little troubled.

Later, when she saw her husband idling by and had nothing to do, she was short of breath and hit him with the account book.

"Don't be in a daze, go to work!" She said impatiently.

Jing Kehou took the account book and hurried over to help.

In the evening, the banquet began.

Xi Xin was wearing a blue shirt, making her look even more aura.

Since this was a farewell banquet, he was inconvenient to wear plain clothes. After searching for a long time, he finally found a darker dress from the cabinet.

Originally, Xi Xin was still a little cautious, but Mrs. Shi saw it, but quickly smiled and asked him to sit down.

Except for them in the room, almost all the rest of the servants were sent away, and the rest also retreated with a group of people after they had placed all the dishes.

Xi Xin noticed that there was a look of eyes on him all the time, he raised his head slightly, but found that it was Lord Shi.

He froze for a moment, then smiled at Master Hou with a quiet smile, two small dimples appeared on both sides of his cheeks.

Jing Kehou was taken aback for a moment, and then smiled at Xi Xin.

This kid is really sensible.

Why is it not my own home?Jing Kehou felt a little regretful in his heart, but then he thought about it, when the youngest son is really with Xi Xin, then Xi Xin will be no different from his child.He thought about it, and suddenly felt that this was actually quite good.

Although it was said to be seeing Shi Lin off, in fact, this banquet was no different from an ordinary family banquet.

Shi Lin listened carefully to his mother's exhortations to him, and answered her words from time to time.

Shi Chen's side is not so complicated, he only focuses on watching Xi Xin eat, lest he be picky eaters again.It's just that since his family is around, he can't do too much. Occasionally, he will pick up some meat next to him and put it on the small plate in front of Xi Xin.

Master Shi saw it by chance, and felt that his teeth were going to be sour.

I didn't expect this child to be so greasy, it was beyond my expectation.But this failed to catch people, Jing Kehou felt that his youngest son was really useless.

Shi Chen seemed to notice his father's gaze, and turned his head slightly.

"What are you looking at, go eat your food." Thinking of being coaxed by Shi Chen before, Hou Jingke didn't get angry at all.

Shi Chen, who was reprimanded for no reason, just felt a little baffled. He looked away, but when he lowered his head, he saw a few more dishes in the bowl.

He looked up again, just in time to see Xi Xin retracting the chopsticks.

Seeing him looking at her, Xi Xin asked in puzzlement, "What's the matter?"

Xi Xin's voice was soft and waxy.

Shi Chen took a bite of the dish and smiled, "No, it's nothing."

He ate everything in the bowl, feeling very sweet in his heart.

Xi Xin was very quiet when eating, she ate silently with her downcast eyes, her eyelashes blinked, and when she lowered her eyebrows, she swept them lightly, leaving a shadow.

Then Xi Xin felt a little thirsty, so she picked up the cup on her left and took a sip.

Shi Chen was watching, but suddenly saw him drink what was in the cup, and almost choked.

When I took it in, I just felt that this glass of water tasted a little strange, astringent, and seemed to have a hint of potency.

It's not like water at all.

Xi Xin looked at Shi Chen in bewilderment, his face was redder than ever because of the wine he had just drunk.

Xi Xin put down the cup bluntly, and asked him, "What are you looking at me for?"

Mrs. Shi was surprised. She subconsciously looked at her husband, then frowned, looked at Lord Hou, and asked him, "When will the extra wine be?"

Jing Kehou quickly explained: "I have asked them to remove the wine, who knows there are still omissions here."

Seeing that Xi Xin's face was getting redder and redder, he didn't seem to know it. When he heard the voices of the two talking, he tilted his head and looked towards them.

Seeing Xi Xin's bewildered look, Mrs. Shi didn't know whether to feel distressed or to laugh.

"Xi Xin, are you full?" Madam Shi asked patiently.

Xi Xin frowned, as if thinking about this question.

Afterwards, he nodded seriously.

"I'm full." Xi Xin's voice sounded softer.

"Drunk after just one drink?" Jing Kehou was a little surprised, the child seemed to have just taken a sip.

Shi Lin didn't raise his head, but focused on the dishes in front of him, but occasionally raised his eyes, but his eyes didn't know where to look.

"I'll take him back, mother, take it easy." Looking at Xi Xin's appearance, Shi Chen couldn't sit still.

He walked over and helped Xi Xin.

Seeing this, Mrs. Shi shook her head and smiled, and waved her hands: "Go, remember to ask them to prepare hangover soup."

Shi Chen nodded.

Xi Xin looked at the person in front of her, shook her head, and whispered, "Why are there two Shi Chens?"

Shi Chen quickly stabilized his body, "Xi Xin, are you ready to go back?" His voice was very soft.

The figures of the two gradually faded away.

Lord Shi Hou saw that they got along so harmoniously that there was no room for others to intervene, so he really let go of his heart.

If you still had doubts at first, then at this time, it turned into conviction.

He began to believe that these two children could really walk together.

As he walked, Shi Chen simply carried Xi Xin on his back, letting him rest directly on his back.

Xi Xin looked on his back curiously as if he had discovered something new, and looked up to the front.

From time to time, the soft hair skipped over Shi Chen's cheeks, bringing a hint of itching.

Shi Chen smiled helplessly: "Xi Xin, be good, don't move around. Be careful not to fall."

Xi Xin, who was drunk, was much more active than before, his hands wrapped around Shi Chen's neck, as if he wanted to get closer to see him.

Shi Chen's body was about to tense up.

Fortunately, they have returned to the house.

After Shi Chen told them to prepare hot water and hangover soup, he took Xi Xin back to the room and made him sit firmly on the bed.

As soon as Xi Xin arrived on the bed, the whole person became quiet.

The servants fetched hot water and put it aside.

Shi Chen took the handkerchief, soaked it, and wiped Xi Xin's face.

There was an itchy feeling on his face, Xi Xin bent his eyes, moved his head slightly, but it was more convenient for Shi Chen to do things, and wiped his face clean.

Xi Xin stretched out her hand, pointed at the room and said, "The room is shaking..."

He smiled and looked at Shi Chen again, "The young master is shaking too."

Before Shi Chen could reply, he saw Xi Xin shaking his head again, and said in a low voice, "I'm a little dizzy."

As soon as he put down the handkerchief, he quickly caught his body that was about to fall.

"The water is so bad to drink." Xi Xin looked up at Shi Chen with extremely wronged eyes, and he complained softly to him, "It will make you feel uncomfortable if you drink it."

Shi Chen felt very distressed, and asked, "Is it hard?"

Xi Xin nodded.

He stretched out his hand and massaged Xi Xin's temple.

Before the servants delivered the hangover soup, Shi Chen could only use this method to relieve Xi Xin's discomfort, although he didn't know if this method would work.

Xi Xin brought the pillow over, as if he wanted to hold it in his arms, then he lowered his head to smell the breath, but put the pillow back.

"Not mine..." he said softly.

This is not Xi Xin's room, and the pillow is naturally not Xi Xin's pillow.It's just that he didn't expect that when he was drunk, he could still tell what was his own.

Xi Xin swayed again and almost fell off the bed, but luckily Shi Chen was watching and caught him just in time.

In order to prevent him from falling again, Shi Chen could only support him and slowly lean on him.

Xi Xin leaned on the hard shoulder that had been disliked all the time, but didn't say anything, as if he knew who he was leaning on, he closed his eyes slightly.

Shi Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

"Next time, I don't dare to let you touch wine again." He said helplessly.
