Chapter 284
Seeing that Xue Shu stopped talking, Chu Chu raised her eyebrows slightly, and said earnestly: "Second sister, you should think about it again, after all, I think... Mr. Jing seems to be very reluctant to part with you."

Xue Shu pursed her lips and reached out to hold Jing Xing's hand.

Jing Xing sighed, and with a twist of his wrist, he held Xue Shu's hand in the palm of his hand. When he raised his eyes to look at Chu Chu, all the emotions in his eyes were restrained, and there was nothing unusual: "As Shu'er said, she It’s not convenient to go, so I don’t bother the eldest girl to go again.”

Seeing his forced indifference, Xue Shu felt a little uncomfortable.

In addition to being uncomfortable, I also felt a little weird.

Why does Jing Xing look like a wronged little daughter-in-law?

Hearing this, the corners of Chu Chu's lips twitched, and her tone was a bit more playful: "In that case, then I would like to thank Second Sister and Mr. Jing for their understanding.

It's just the second sister, if you change your mind and suddenly feel that Mr. Jing is more important, you can come to me at any time. In front of the second highness, I can still say a few words. "

After finishing speaking, Chu Chu didn't stay any longer and got up to leave.

As soon as she left, the flower hall fell silent, Jing Xing just lowered his head to eat, and didn't say a word.

Xue Shu was completely out of the mood to eat. She sat aside and looked at him with a complicated expression.

Jing Xing, who always eats quickly, took a full cup of tea to put down his chopsticks for today's meal.

"Shu'er, if you're still not feeling well, why don't you go back to your bedroom and rest." Jing Xing's voice was a little low, and he didn't sound very happy.

"... Oh." Xue Shu looked at Jing Xing, and although she answered, she didn't move.

Jing Xing waited for a long while with his eyes downcast, but he didn't see Xue Shu standing up, so he couldn't help but look up at her, taking all the worry in those phoenix eyes into his eyes.

"I'm fine." Jing Xing shook Xue Shu's hand, "It's only been a few months, I'm fine."

It was only a few months, and it passed quickly.

maybe.

"……Um……"

Although Jing Xing said he was fine, his actions did not look like he was fine at all.

He has been a little distracted all morning, always staring at Xue Shu in a daze, sometimes without blinking his eyes, which is really scary.

Xue Shu felt uncomfortable being watched by him.

It wasn't until it was time for lunch that Jing Xing became a little normal.

He can skip it, but Xue Shu can't.

Seeing Jing Xing, who was barely back to normal, bustling around with her, Xue Shu felt even more congested.

"I'm going to rest for a while, why don't you go back to Zhuyuan?" Xue Shu said tentatively.

Jing Xing paused, then nodded.

He is indeed a little bit uninterested today, so it's better not to hang around in front of Xue Shu, so as not to affect her mood.

Let's go and listen to the bamboo garden slowly.

This lunch was still spent in silence.

Seeing the back of Jing Xing leaving with heavy steps, even Qing Yu couldn't bear it: "Girl, is it not good to treat Mr. Jing like this?"

Jing Xing has always been calm and indifferent, how could he ever be so lost like today.

Xue Shu sighed and nodded.

Jing Xing is a very rational person, he will never be easily provoked by Chu Chu, but whether he will be provoked is one thing, but whether he will be hurt or not is another.

She could obviously go with him, and the second prince would at most mumble something behind his back, and would never dare to do anything to her on the surface.

But she still didn't nod.

Even if Jing Xing didn't say anything, he must be heartbroken.

But even if it happens again, Xue Shu still won't nod.

If she gets mixed up with Chuchu, she will definitely not end well.

But, she has other ideas.

"Qingyu, get ready, let's go to the Hou's Mansion." She just wanted to go to Yangzhou to play, and her uncle must have a way to send her there.

At that time, you don't have to worry about being used by Chu Chu, and you can still be by Jing Xing's side, everything will be fine.

Qingyu's eyes lit up, she responded crisply, and trotted to arrange the carriage.

-

Zhenbeihou Mansion.

Seeing Xue Shu coming, Zhenbei Hou's family was not surprised, and even seemed to have expected it.

The whole family sat in the hall without speaking, the atmosphere was very quiet, until seeing Xue Shu coming, the hall seemed to come alive for a moment.

Mrs. Zhenbei Hou smiled and stretched out her hand to her, and pulled her into her arms very naturally, she was very curious: "Oh, it's been a long time since I saw you, why did you lose weight again? How do the Xue family do things? , you'd better come back to the Marquis Mansion, and I'll make sure to raise you fat and white, how about it?"

Xue Shu twitched the corners of her mouth, and said helplessly, "Auntie, you raised me fat and white, how can I marry in the future?"

"Why, doesn't that kid Jing Xing still dare to despise you?" Mrs. Zhenbeihou's face drooped immediately, "If he really dares, your uncle and your two cousins ​​are not just a show! Go beat him up first. After a while, let's call off the engagement! The capital is so big, can't you find someone you want?"

"Come on." Seeing that Mrs. Zhenbeihou was getting more and more excited, Zhenbeihou hurriedly stepped forward and tugged at her sleeves, "You two are very good, don't talk nonsense!"

After being interrupted by Zhenbeihou, Mrs. Zhenbeihou also realized that something was wrong with what she said. She glanced at Xue Shu and saw that Xue Shu's face was as usual, and she didn't seem to take it seriously, so she breathed a sigh of relief. He patted Xue Shu's hand twice, and led her to sit down: "Come on, your favorite tea and snacks are prepared in the kitchen, try it!"

As soon as Xue Shu sat down, her eyes lingered for a moment on the apparently well-prepared tea and snacks, and she couldn't help but feel a little helpless.

It seems that my uncle and aunt really expected that I would come, and they even prepared tea and snacks.

Brothers Lu Yinghuai and Lu Yingche looked at each other, feeling a little helpless.

They said early in the morning, don't prepare so meticulously, Xue Shu is not stupid, she must be able to tell at a glance that they have already prepared, but Mrs. Zhenbeihou didn't listen, she said, you can see it when you see it, you can't You wronged Xue Shu's stomach, didn't you?
After all, none of their big family likes to eat dim sum. Will it be possible for Xue Shu to make a hard trip and drink tea back home?
What does this look like.

When the brothers heard it, it made sense.

So we helped prepare together.

I regret it when I'm ready.

What if the little cousin is thin-skinned for a while and refuses to ask them for help?
So, without waiting for Xue Shu to speak, Lu Yinghuai took the lead and said, "Shu'er, your third brother is going to Yangzhou to play these two days, do you want to go together?"

He really wanted to do something like go out with his cousin himself.

But no.

Yangzhou is a very sensitive place now. The emperor has sent the prince and important court officials there. As the eldest son of the Zhenbeihou Mansion, he represents the entire Zhenbeihou Mansion. Naturally, he can't easily go there, otherwise he will be treated as a second son by the emperor. The prince's people are not good.

But Lu Yingche didn't have any position on him, and it was indeed the most suitable for him to take Xue Shu to Yangzhou for a leisurely stay.
