On the way back to Wenqiu Pavilion, Jiudong sensed that his young master looked uneasy, and couldn't help asking: "Young master, what's the matter?"

Xu Xilu shook his head, "It's nothing." Anyway, it wasn't him who made the mistake, he just felt sorry for the original Xu Xilu.In the past, Xu Xilu was rich, talented and good-looking, and he couldn't hook up with anyone he wanted.Once transmigrated, he ended up being treated so coldly by the beauty. This gap is too great, even if he is as big-hearted as he is, he still feels a little uncomfortable.

The two walked together on the corridor, and in front of them were two little maids, who were from some courtyard, chatting with each other.Xu Xilu walked behind them and could barely hear their conversation.

"...It's okay to send some worthless things on weekdays, but today he actually came to look for our young master in person. He is like an annoying fly, and he can't be chased away. The young master Xu sent tea from Duanwang's mansion. He is fine, what kind of sweet-scented osmanthus cake, who is our son?"

"The sweet-scented osmanthus cake didn't even look at it and let me deal with it. What kind of fairy-like figure is our son, how can we eat the things he sent? Let alone him, I think it's dirty!"

"Hey, after all, our young master is just too kind-hearted. He didn't want to see the dirty things in the house, and he just said a few words to help him, but he didn't expect it to cause such a mess."

"that is……"

Xu Xilu didn't react much when he heard it, but Jiu Dong who was beside him blushed with anger, and was about to step forward to find someone to reason with, but Xu Xilu stopped him, "Are you angry?"

Jiudong said angrily: "Aren't you angry? Are you not angry when they say that about you?!"

"People are telling the truth, what's there to be angry about?"

"Master!"

In Xu Xilu's previous life, he was only more indifferent than Xie Qingsu to those unaware and entangled suitors.In the past, Xu Xilu only hurt other people's hearts, and never knew what it was like to be hurt.And until now, he was finally rejected by others—this is really an unprecedented experience.

Xu Xilu patted Jiudong on the shoulder, "Let's go, we're going back."

In the Xu Family Ancestral Hall, the ever-burning lamps flickered on and off, and the rich sandalwood scent made people drowsy.Aunt Dong knelt on the futon, her eyes were closed, her head was shaking up and down, she was obviously very sleepy.

With a "squeak", Aunt Dong woke up suddenly, and after seeing the person, she immediately kowtowed respectfully, "Ma'am."

Mrs. Zhang walked slowly to Aunt Dong, holding a string of Buddhist beads in her hand. Although she was dressed plainly, she had the majesty of a royal family. "Mr. Dong, do you know your mistake?"

Aunt Dong stood up and looked up at her, "Ma'am, Hua Tan knows he was wrong."

Mrs. Zhang shook her head: "No, you don't know what's wrong."

"Also, please make it clear, madam."

"It was me who took you into Xu's residence; it was also me who gave you a little bit of housekeeping power. If you make a mistake, you will slap me in the face. Do you understand?"

"Hua Tan understands."

Mrs. Zhang stepped forward, picked up a piece of incense and lit it on the long burning lamp, "I am old, and I have more energy than energy for family affairs. Now, my mind is only on Xuanying."

"The eldest young master has read poetry and books and is extremely intelligent. In the future, he will definitely be the same as the master and be an extremely human minister."

Mrs. Zhang held the incense, bowed to her ancestors three times, and put the incense in the incense burner, "Xuanying is my only son, and also the only son of the master. This huge Xu family can only be inherited by him in the future. It can only be him."

A thin layer of sweat appeared on Aunt Dong's forehead, "This, this is natural."

"After Xuanying becomes the head of the family, life will be easier for you and your two girls." Mrs. Zhang paused, and then said: "Speaking of which, Xuanying and Qingyang are both old enough to discuss marriage. ..."

Aunt Dong returned to Yinyan Pavilion with a pale face, and Miss Xu Anning, who had been waiting at the door early in the morning, hurriedly welcomed her in, "Auntie!"

"Tea...bring tea!"

Xu Anning took the tea brought by the maid and handed it to Aunt Dong, who drank it down in one gulp. "Auntie," Xu Anning worried, "Are you okay?"

Aunt Dong pushed her away and asked, "Where's your sister?"

"The mansion has a new batch of clothes, and the second sister is picking them in her yard."

Aunt Dong couldn't help scolding: "This heartless girl, my mother is fined like a normal person."

"Then, shall I call Second Sister?"

"No need," Aunt Dong said distractedly, "Go back to your own room and stay."

Xu Anning blessed Fushen aggrievedly, "Yes."

Aunt Dong drank half a cup of tea again, without taking a break, she went directly to another courtyard to visit Liancha.Liancha had just been beaten ten boards, and now she couldn't even stand upright, so she could only lie on the bed. When she saw Aunt Dong, she tried to stand up and salute, but she was gently held down, "What are you doing these empty salutes at this time?" " Aunt Dong sighed, "Lian Cha, you have suffered."

Lian Cha smiled weakly, "As long as Auntie is fine, my meal will not be in vain."

Aunt Dong held her hand with sharp eyes, "Don't worry, I will definitely seek justice for you."

"Auntie..." Lian Cha lowered her voice, "What can Auntie do?"

Aunt Dong raised her hand and pulled the hair on her forehead behind her ears, and said softly: "Last time, I heard you say that Mrs. Wang in our courtyard is from the same town as Xing Nong from Wenqiu Pavilion?"

Lian Cha's eyes sank, "Auntie means..."

At the end of the month, all the leaves in the yard fell, and there was a heavy snowfall. Jiu Dong said, "Master, this winter is finally here."

Stretching out his hand, the soft white snow fell on his palm, which was icy and cold. Xu Xilu couldn't help smiling, "Winter...it's pretty good." In winter, everyone is wrapped up tightly, so he doesn't look so Bloated and eye-catching.

"Young master," Jiudong shivered with his face flushed from the cold, "let's go inside, it's too cold outside."

"I'm not afraid of the cold." Xu Xilu was eager to enjoy the snow, and seeing that Jiu Dong was terribly frozen, he said, "Go back and warm yourself by the fire, and let Xing Nong take care of you."

"Forget it, young master, that girl Xing Nong went somewhere early in the morning."

Xu Xilu took Jiudong to wander around Xu's mansion.The end of the new year is approaching, and the servants are busy in and out, and they are in a hurry.Red lanterns have been hung up in many places in Xu Mansion, adding to the festive atmosphere.When passing Tingyu Tower, Xu Xilu suddenly stopped and said to Jiudong: "Go another way."

Unexpectedly, as soon as he turned around, he met Xu Qingyang and Xu Anning walking towards him.Seeing him, Xu Anning called "Second Brother", while Xu Qingyang asked directly, "Why are you here?" Although Xu Qingyang and Xu Anning were born of the same mother, their personalities are completely different.Aunt Dong had been in the mansion for many years before she had a daughter named Xu Qingyang.

Xu Xilu smiled and said, "The two younger sisters can come here, why can't I?"

Xu Qingyang seemed a little angry, and said, "Brother Xie's family lives here."

Xu Xilu raised his eyebrows: "So what?"

"You look like this, let the second brother Xie see it, and don't let outsiders think that all the children of the Xu family are as stupid and fat as you? If I were you, I would just stay in my yard honestly, and then I will give you a chance. I won't come out to shame..."

"Second sister!" Xu Qingyang's words were too much, even Xu Anning couldn't bear to listen to them, so he couldn't help reminding her.

Xu Xilu smiled instead of anger, "No matter how stupid and fat I am, I'm still a man. Second sister, don't say that my brother didn't remind you, you are a girl who is wandering around in front of the Tingyu Building when you have nothing to do. Those who know think you are admiring the snow, but don't know Some people thought that you came here on purpose, just to meet Mr. Xie's family, and then something happened. If this matter gets out, outsiders will think that our Xu family's sons and daughters are shameless and don't know how to defend against men and women..."

"You—" Xu Qingyang was so angry that his eyes were filled with stars, he picked up a stone and wanted to throw it at Xu Xilu.Xu Anning quickly grabbed her back: "Second Sister, Sister, don't be impulsive! If Da Furen finds out..."

"Am I afraid of her?" Xu Qingyang said hysterically, "Get out of the way, or I will—"

"What are you making so much noise about?" Zhao Hua, the first-class maid of Fuqu Pavilion, came at some time, looked around at everyone, and said sharply: "Our Mrs. Xie said that Mr. Xie's family likes to be quiet and not noisy. Listening to the noise in the Yulou Tower, no matter who they are, they will be driven away, and those who are dissatisfied will be brought to her. Second Young Master, Second Miss, are you going to go by yourself, or go to see our Madam Xie before leaving?"

No one in the Xu residence knew that Xie's status was special, even the master wanted to show her some affection, no matter how savage Xu Qingyang was, he would not dare to be savage to her.Xu Anning pulled Xu Qingyang's sleeve and whispered: "Second Sister, let's go."

Xu Qingyang gritted his teeth and said, "Xu Xilu, wait for me!" After speaking, he hurriedly left angrily.Xu Anning hurriedly saluted Xu Xilu, and hurriedly followed.

Zhaohua turned to Xu Xilu, gestured to please go, "Second Young Master?"

"Let's go now." Xu Xilu lost interest in admiring the snow, and wanted to go back to Wenqiu Pavilion, but he saw a familiar figure just two steps away.

Xie Qingsu stood quietly in the snow, her black silk like ink, her clothes like snow, as always, she would not eat people's fireworks.Xu Xilu's heart trembled - he didn't hear all those words just now, did he?Xu Xilu Ruirui said anxiously: "Brother Qingsu."

Xie Qingsu's coldness made people shy away, "I didn't know that Second Young Master also has such a sharp-tongued side."

Xu Xilu rubbed his nose, "I was forced by the situation just now, so I said something out of choice, please don't take offense, Brother Qingsu."

Xie Qingsu looked at Xu Xilu, the snow fell on his shoulders, making him look like a piece of cold jade. "I have no intention of interfering with Xu's family affairs, the second young master can handle it himself."

Just when Xie Qingsu was about to pass by Xu Xilu, Xu Xilu suddenly felt that it was boring, and called him out of nowhere, "Mr. Xie."

Xie Qingsu stopped.

"Mr. Xie is talented and upright. I admire him very much. I always thought that if I could become friends with Mr. Xie, this life would be worthwhile. However, although Luo Hua has intentions, Liu Shui is ruthless."

Xie Qingsu frowned slightly.

"In the past, I offended Mr. Xie, so I am here to accompany you." Xu Xilu clasped his fists and bowed, "In the future, I will not bother Mr. Xie... Naturally, I will not let Xing Nong Send things over there. But last year, when Mr. Xie came to Xu Manor to pay New Year's greetings, I asked Xing Nong to give Mr. Xie a piece of jade. It was my mother's relic, and I hope Mr. Xie can return it to me." That jade pendant is Liu Xu Changying once said that the only thing she left to Xu Xilu was for her future daughter-in-law.

"Jade?" Xie Qingsu said, "I've never seen it before."

"Master Xie, think about it more carefully?" The jade pendant was very important to the original Xu Xilu, and he had repeatedly asked Xing Nong to give it to Xie Qingsu himself.

Before Xie Qingsu could answer, the servant standing behind him said: "Our young master has a photographic memory, and he remembers clearly if he confiscated or received it. Second young master, don't forget it by yourself."

"So..." Xu Xilu said thoughtfully, "Then I understand."
