I was absent-minded after eating a meal, thinking about the mess in my mind before, and my father gave me a few glances during the meal, but I ignored them.

After dinner, I chatted with Hua Jinxiang for a few words, and then I got up to say goodbye to my father.Seeing my worried face, my father knew that I had been making a lot of noise outside these few days and didn't stay any longer. He reprimanded me a little like before, and then let me go.

In the middle of the night, although I haven't had a good rest these days, I still don't feel sleepy at this time.Originally, the matter of the four princesses was going well, and I was half relieved, but the sudden appearance of Hua Jinxiang made me fall into confusion again.

In the previous life, I had no contact with Hua Jinxiang, only when Hua Lingshu entered the mansion, I saw him once.At that time, I was young and frivolous, and I felt that my father was unfaithful to my mother by marrying a concubine, so I made a fuss unceremoniously and left home to Zuihualou.At that time, I remembered that guy was so angry that I turned pale. It stands to reason that it would be good if that person didn't help me when I was in trouble, and it was impossible for him to help me.

I couldn't think of a reason for a long time, so I knocked on my forehead in distress.I looked up and saw that Jedi was still standing at the door, so I beckoned him to sit on the low stool beside my bed.

"Little Marquis, what do you want your subordinates to do?"

Seeing Jedi like this, I scratched my left cheek with a sneer and said with a smile: "Actually, I just want you to check Hua Jinxiang's details for me. I'm a little unclear about some things about him."

Hearing this, a trace of doubt flashed in Jedi's eyes.Before taking over the ghost eight horses, as their prospective master, they naturally knew everything about me like the back of their hands.He is even more clear about the previous festivities between me and Hua Jinxiang.Now when I suddenly heard me asking about Hua Jinxiang's old background, I was naturally puzzled.However, seeing that I made such a request, and the request was not out of the ordinary, naturally I did not refuse.

A day later, I sat on a chair and stared at the results brought by the Jedi, and my gaze paused when Hua Jinxiang was 12 years old.

Hua Jinxiang was originally born in a concubine's family. Although he is a young master, he can't even compare to a steward in the mansion.When he was 12 years old, his biological mother died of illness, but he didn't even have a thin coffin.He felt sorry for his biological mother, so he secretly took the few valuable things he had and went outside the house to pawn them.Because he was cheated by the shopkeeper of the pawnshop when he was young, he was given a tael of silver and kicked out.

At that time, Hua Jinxiang, who was full of resentment, met my mother who took me to Miaoyin Temple outside the city to offer incense. My mother felt sorry for me when she asked me why.After knowing his identity, he asked someone to redeem what he pawned, and then gave him another 20 taels of silver to bury his biological mother.

I put down the note in my hand and tapped my fingers on the table subconsciously.I wondered in my mind whether it was because of this reason that he reached out to me back then.

With a sigh, I looked up and saw the sunlight just outside the door.Let Baozi take my coat and put it on, and then took Baozi to the garden to hang out and bask in the sun.

When I walked to Luohuating, I looked up and saw Hua Lingshu drinking tea with Hua Yuanyuan and Hua Jinxiang inside.Seeing me bring the steamed stuffed bun, the smile on my face froze, and I quickly got up to salute me.I glanced at Hua Jinxiang, and saw that he lowered his head with a calm face, and couldn't help but hook his mouth when his gaze passed over Hua Yuanyuan.

Hua Yuanyuan blushed when she saw me smiling at her, she tightened the handkerchief with her fingers and bit her lips until it was as bright red as blood.

Hua Lingshu knew that I was a human being, and when she saw me chuckle at Hua Yuanyuan, she thought that I was playing with Hua Yuanyuan.Frowning, he stretched out his hand to lightly tug on Hua Yuanyuan's clothes, walked forward two steps seemingly casually, and smiled at me, "Why did you come to the garden for a walk today, Young Master?"

Saying that, he raised his hand and poured me a cup of tea and put it on the stone table.

Seeing this, I unceremoniously lifted up the hem of my clothes and sat down for a while. Seeing that the three of them were still standing, I raised my hand to let them sit down too.

"How is it? Miss Hua and Young Master Hua are still used to being here? If you need to find someone in charge, it's like your own home in the Hou Mansion, so you don't have to be polite."

Upon hearing this, Hua Jinxiang smiled and said, "Thank you, Young Master, everything is fine in the mansion."

Picking up the teacup, I took a sip and sat with the three of them for about a quarter of an hour. Seeing that the three of them were restrained and dared not speak, I smiled and got up and left with the buns.Seeing that I was about to leave, Hua Lingshu couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief. Seeing me looking at her with a smile on her face, she hurriedly suppressed the expression on her face and lowered her head.

In the evening, the little maid from Jingyuan came over with a small box in her arms and said it was a gift from Hua Yuanyuan.I propped my chin to let the bun open.Seeing that there was a round jade pendant inside, he asked Baozi to put it away and throw it into the warehouse without any mention of returning the gift.

After staying in the mansion for a day, Baozi, who is used to being wild by my side, yawned boredly while holding a feather duster and covering his mouth.I also sniffled bored, and looked at the Jedi with blinking eyes.Seeing me like this, that steady man knew that I wanted to go out for a stroll again, so the corner of his mouth twitched and asked Fan Yu to accompany me for a walk.

When I walked to the door with Baozi and Fan Yu, I thought of Hua Jinxiang and asked the concierge to tell him to stand at the door and wait.Not long after, I saw the concierge hurriedly walking towards me with Hua Jinxiang.

Hua Jinxiang greeted me, his eyes were full of bewilderment.

I laughed and said: "I'm bored in the mansion, and I feel bored when I go out by myself, so I ordered someone to disturb Mr. Hua. Mr. Hua won't blame someone."

Hua Jinxiang said with a smile: "What did the young master say, I don't know where the young master wants to go?"

I took the paper fan and tapped my forehead, thought for a while but didn't think of where I was going, so I said: "Hey, I haven't thought about it, but I wonder if Mr. Hua has any interesting places to go?"

"Let's go to Qinglin Lake over there. It's the time when the lotus blooms in the lake." Hua Jinxiang suggested.

"Alright, let's go."

I knocked on my palm with the paper fan and stepped out of the gate of the Hou Mansion.

Two quarters of an hour later, the four of us arrived at Qinglin Lake.There is a wooden railing around the lake, and a lantern is hung on the railing every three feet. From time to time, a flower boat swims past us in the lake.The lights on the boat were brightly lit, almost illuminating half of the lake.The beautiful lotus is swaying with the breeze, and the lotus leaves are lightly touched on the lake, causing circles of ripples.

Looking at the beautiful scenery in front of me, the faint fragrance of lotus lingers on the tip of the nose, which makes people feel refreshed and relaxed, and the whole body can't help but relax a little.

After walking around Qinglin Lake for half a circle, the four of us sat down at a tea stall near the lake.Baozi asked Xiao Er to serve a pot of tea and a few plates of snacks, knowing that I would not call him for a while, so he dragged the embarrassed Fan Yu to help him pick a lotus.

I saw that Fan Yu was really worn out by him, so I waved them away.Smiling as they walked away, I turned around and saw Hua Jinxiang looking at me with a cup of tea.

"Young Master called me out today, do you have something to order?"

I didn't expect Hua Jinxiang to be so straightforward, so I couldn't help being taken aback, then smiled and stretched out my hand to pinch the cuff, and lifted the teapot to help him refill the cup.

"Why do you ask that? Can't you find Mr. Hua for a walk if you have nothing to do?"

Hua Jinxiang thanked me, and said with a light smile: "When my aunt came into the mansion, the young master's attitude towards my Hua family is still fresh in my memory. With the little prince's temperament, he will never treat me if nothing happens. So amiable."

Hearing Hua Jinxiang's words, my face darkened, and I pretended to be angry and said, "Hmph! Since you know, you dare to come out with me? Aren't you afraid that I will let someone kill you to vent your anger?"

Hua Jinxiang didn't expect me to change my face so quickly, he was stunned for a moment and still smiled and said: "Young Master, can you?"

Seeing Hua Jinxiang like this, I couldn't hold back the annoyance on my face. I tapped my folding fan on my palm and said with a smile, "No way. To be honest, I really don't like Aunt Hua. I wanted to call you out today." Playing with you, but after saying this, I found that you really like my appetite."

"It's my luck in the next three lives to be favored by the little marquis."

The two chatted for a while, I picked up the tea and took a sip, looked up at Hua Jinxiang who was still smiling, and said, "Actually, when you entered the mansion, I suddenly felt that you looked familiar, and later it really reminded me of you Who is here?"

Hearing what I said, Hua Jinxiang's eyes flashed, the smile on his face slowly disappeared, and there was a trace of bitterness in his eyes: "Really? I thought the young master would have forgotten it long ago. If it wasn't for the kindness of my wife, I will Mother was afraid... Hehe, I wanted to thank Madam afterward, but I never had the chance. When I had the chance, it's a pity that good people don't last long, Madam has passed away."

Seeing him mentioning his mother made me feel sore.He lowered his head, sipped his tea and blinked to suppress the tears in his eyes.

"It's a thing of the past, don't mention it again."

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have made the young master sad. But don't forget to repay the favor. Although it is only a small matter for the young master and his wife, it means something different to me. Today, I, Hua, are here I swear, in the future, if the young master can use my Hua Jinxiang, please feel free to speak up, and I, Hua Jinxiang, will do my best to repay it."

After Hua Jinxiang finished speaking, he raised his hand to pick up the teacup in front of him and drank it up.

I looked at him and raised the corners of my mouth: "I invited you out today just to chat, not to repay your kindness."

Hua Jinxiang was about to speak when he heard the approaching footsteps of Baozi and Fanyu, so he stopped talking.I turned my head to look at the two of them, and I saw Baozi holding a lotus in one hand, with a satisfied smile on the sensual Xiaoyuan's face, that picture is really unbearable to look at...

Seeing the two of them come back, we asked Baozi to make tea money. The four of us walked around Qinglin Lake for a while, and when we saw that it was getting late, we planned to go back home.When the four of us reached Lin'an Street, we saw a carriage coming towards us, so we made way sideways.However, at this moment, the curtain of the car was lifted, and Liang Chuyi's handsome face poked out from it.Seeing me nod at me, I waved at him.The carriage rattled past us, and when Liang Chuyi lowered the window, he saw Baozi next to me holding a lotus flower with a smirk on his face, and his eyes froze.My heart was broken, and I hurriedly turned Baozi to the side, but Baozi was still holding the lotus flower and looked at me stupidly without knowing it.
