Chapter 51 Familiar figure
The next day, when Xie Chen woke up, he saw that the incense in the house had changed, and a dark color flashed across his eyes, but he never asked anyone in the yard to question him.

"Miss, Young Master Xie is here to look for you." Yinhuan came in and said to Xie Chen.

After the birthday banquet, Xie Han went to study in the palace, starting from Mao every day and returning to Xu, so even though the two lived in the same mansion, they hadn't seen each other for a few days.

Xie Chen greeted him, "Aren't you entering the palace today? Why are you looking for me?"

"Since I went to study in the palace, I haven't seen my sister-in-law for five days. The school is on a half-day holiday today, so I have time to come." Xie Han replied.

Xie Chen smiled when he heard this, and ordered Yinhuan to make more for lunch, and Xie Han also stayed here to eat.

"I haven't asked you how you are studying in the palace yet?" After the two sat down, Xie Chen asked Xie Han.

Xie Han replied with a natural expression: "The gentleman in the palace must be the best. I have benefited a lot from being in the palace in the past few days."

Xie Chen nodded, the gentleman invited to the study room in the palace is a great contemporary Confucian, it must be much better than outside, but those who can study in the palace are the children of noble families, although the status of the prime minister's mansion is not low, But Xie Han is not the son of the Prime Minister's family after all, so I don't know if he was excluded in it.

"Has the son of the aristocratic family inside made friends with you?" Xie Chen asked tactfully.

Xie Han thought for a while and said, "The people inside are very nice, but the emphasis is on studies, and we don't have much communication between us."

Xie Chen nodded when he heard Xie Han's words, this is also normal, he didn't notice the unnatural expression on Xie Han's face.

After lunch, Xie Han still had to finish his homework, so he went back to his yard first.

Xie Chen felt bored in the afternoon. Seeing that the weather outside was not bad, he remembered the brocade of spices that Aunt Jing had given him, and said to Yinhuan, "Let's go to the Buddhist hall for a walk."

Xie Wan was still being punished in the Buddhist hall at this time, and since he said that no one was allowed to visit, Xie Chen naturally would not touch this bad luck, and he just fell into the mouth for no reason, but felt that Aunt Jing and Xie Wan were too quiet these days , not like their style of conduct.

The weather is getting hotter and hotter recently, the sun is shining brightly in the afternoon, Yinhuan is beside Xie Chen holding an umbrella to help her shade, for fear that Xie Chen will be exposed to the sun, Xie Chen has studied martial arts in Yaoshan since he was a child, he is not so particular, but now he is in the capital , every lady is like this, naturally it is not easy to refuse Xie Chen.

Before he got close to the Buddhist hall, he saw a familiar figure hurriedly walking out of the Buddhist hall. The man walked in such a hurry that he didn't see Xie Chen at the corner, and walked straight to the front yard.

Seeing this, Xie Chen became suspicious, but he didn't intend to tell Mrs. Xie about it.

Even if Aunt Jing sent someone to secretly deliver something to Xie Wan, as long as no one pointed it out, Mrs. Xie would still turn a blind eye. People can only say that Xie Chen has hatred for Xie Wan.

Xie Chen approached the Buddhist hall, and the windows of the Buddhist hall were not closed. When Xie Chen passed by, he glanced inside, and saw Xie Wan kneeling there with his back to this side, as if he was praying devoutly.

Xie Chen looked at this scene and wondered in his heart, did Xie Wan really realize his mistake and stay in the Buddhist hall obediently?
Xie Chen thought of the figure he saw just now, and felt very familiar. The person was wearing the clothes of a maid in the Xie Mansion, but Xie Chen could clearly see the jade bracelet on her hand.

Thinking of this, Xie Chen thought back to the scene he saw through the window. Xie Wan turned her back to him. Although she couldn't see anything from her back, she couldn't see her face after all.

"Take the gift I prepared for Aunt Jing, and go sit in her yard." Xie Chen said to Yinhuan.

Maybe, in Aunt Jing's yard, she could meet her good sister Xie Wan.

In Aunt Jing's courtyard.

"Mother, what are you asking me to come out at this time? If my grandmother finds out, my father won't be able to protect me." Xie Wan was wearing a maid's clothes, sitting in Aunt Jing's room, with an anxious look on her face.

Aunt Jing had a calm expression on her face, "Mother hasn't seen you for a few days, I miss you so much, let Hongying take you back later, and bring you some snacks by the way."

Xie Wan was punished in the Buddhist hall, and the servants of Xie's mansion gave her all vegetarian meals, let alone exquisite dim sum.

Although Xie Wan couldn't bear the boring days in the Buddhist hall, she was also afraid of making her grandmother angry if she came out privately, so she nodded.

Aunt Jing looked at the daughter in front of her, thinking that Xie Chen should take the bait at this time, after today, she would not be able to stay in this mansion any longer.

Sure enough, as soon as the maid sent Xie Wan back to the Buddhist hall on the front foot, Xie Chen came with a silver ring on the back foot.

"Chen'er, why did you come to Auntie's place? Come in and sit down." When Aunt Jing saw Xie Chen standing outside the door, surprise appeared on her face at first, and then she realized that she was happy to welcome her in.

Xie Chen nodded with a smile, and walked in with Yinhuan.

"Chen'er likes the spice brocade that my aunt gave yesterday, and I'm thinking of giving some good things to my aunt today." With that said, Xie Chen took the prepared gift from Yinhuan and handed it to Aunt Jing.

A hint of surprise and liking appeared on Aunt Jing's face at the right time, she smiled and opened the brocade box containing the gift, it was a hairpin inlaid with gold and jade, the jade was crystal clear, like a bead inlaid on it, gorgeous and magnificent.

"My aunt really can't afford to give such a good thing to my aunt." As he said this, he was about to put the hairpin inside and return it to Xie Chen.

Seeing this, Xie Chen quickly stuffed things into Aunt Jing's arms, "If Auntie and Chen'er are so polite, Chen'er will not come next time."

Xie Chen can tell that Aunt Jing loves this hairpin very much, and if he gives her a step like this, she will definitely accept it.

I saw Aunt Jing nodded with a smile, and handed the brocade box containing the hairpins to Hongying beside her: "Then Auntie took it, and I will definitely give it to Chen'er when Auntie has something good in the future."

Xie Chen nodded with a smile.

Aunt Jing watched Hongying put away the brocade box, pulled Xie Chen to sit down, and said guiltily: "Chen'er, Wan'er was ignorant a few days ago and mistrusted the thief's words, please look at it for my aunt's sake." Don't get acquainted with her."

"Naturally, just like my aunt said, I won't argue with my sister for your sake." Xie Chen agreed gently.

Speaking of Xie Wan, Xie Chen seemed to have just remembered, and asked worriedly: "Wan'er is alone in the Buddhist hall now, she can't eat well and sleep well, Aunt Jing may have visited her."

"The old lady said that people are not allowed to visit, even if I was worried, I didn't dare to go." Aunt Jing said sadly with red eyes.

Seeing this, Xie Chen also looked worried about Xie Wan, and comforted him: "It's okay for my aunt to visit my sister, the people below dare not upload it."

Aunt Jing didn't know this truth, she didn't go to see Xie Wan all this time because of today's plan, and endured until now.

"Bang." There was the sound of a glass breaking from the room on the west side, which was the room where Xie Wan had been staying.

The expression on Aunt Jing's face suddenly became flustered, and she held Xie Chen's hand tightly behind her back, not knowing what she was nervous about.

"Auntie, someone must have accidentally broken the cup, I'll go out and have a look." Seeing the panic on Aunt Jing's face, Xie Chen thought she was startled when she heard the voice, and comforted her.

When Xie Chen stood up, the panic on Aunt Jing's face was still there, she wanted to pull her, but Xie Chen walked too fast, Aunt Jing trotted and grabbed her before Xie Chen walked into the room.
