As soon as Jiangmen Jiaojiao opened her eyes, she was paranoid that the prince had come to steal her

The next day is the first day of the new year.

Xie Changqing had a good night's sleep and was in excellent spirits after getting up.

Lei Yi walked forward with a smile: "It seems that the general had a lot of fun with the princess last night? Then when will we take her back to Yaocheng?"

Xie Changqing didn't speak, just washed and put on his clothes in silence.

Suddenly, a man's voice called "Yaya" with a chuckle came from the courtyard next door.

Xie Changqing's dressing movement paused, and then continued, straightening his clothes and putting on his belt.

Lei Yi coughed and whispered: "It's Mr. Mei. He came before dawn. It is said that he came all night to accompany the princess during the New Year and brought a cart full of things."

"understood."

Xie Changqing said indifferently, lifted his robe and walked out of the yard, heading directly to the next door.

The alley has been blocked by several large carriages. There are several well-dressed servants standing beside the carriages, and the horses pulling them are also very tall, indicating that the master's status is very high.

The other residents in the alley were looking around, wondering who was coming to pay New Year greetings on such a grand occasion as the New Year's Day.

Xie Changqing walked into the next courtyard without squinting.

"Yaya, let's go to Xilanfang to watch a show. I sent someone to reserve a seat half a month ago."

"Oh that's fine."

Mei Xiyuan was overjoyed.

After he saw this woman in Baojing Mountain, he was moved by her beauty and pursued her fiercely.

However, this foreign woman was very beautiful, but her attitude towards people was always lukewarm. She would occasionally smile at him once or twice, but it seemed to take away his soul.

But a month ago, this Yaya girl suddenly became very cold.

When he went to ask for an audience, he didn't show up.

There happened to be something going on at home, so Mei Xiyuan could only go back temporarily, but he couldn't forget it, so when he stayed with his parents at home, he secretly prepared a lot of good things.

We have also reserved a seat at Xianglan Square for this New Year’s Day.

Xianglanfang is a famous dance and music troupe in Danzhou City, because foreigners and Han people live together here. As time goes by, foreigners also have the awareness of celebrating the New Year, and they will flock to Danzhou City in large numbers around the New Year to join in the fun.

Merchants have sensed business opportunities. Some shops will not close during the Chinese New Year and will come up with many tricks to make profits.

Xianglanfang is one of them. It is very difficult to get theater tickets every year, and it is even more difficult to book good seats.

Mei Xiyuan couldn't help but talk about how many twists and turns he had wasted on his theater ticket, hoping to win the beauty's favor.

Unexpectedly, before the words were spoken, a tall and handsome man in fine clothes came slowly and stopped in front of the alien beauty.

Shalan was once again wearing Molan costume, today it was aqua, her hair was decorated with a green gem hairnet, and a diamond-shaped green crystal dropped from her forehead.

Xie Changqing asked: "Aren't you wearing a hat today?"

"Why do you like me wearing a hat?" Shalan asked him with a smile.

Mei Xiyuan opened his eyes wide.

It was obvious that Shalan only had a shallow smile, but he had never seen such a pure smile after being around Shalan for so long.

Xie Changqing nodded: "You look good in a hat."

The feather hat she wears is very small and exquisite, and the top of the hat is decorated with jade pieces and very small gems.

Last time, Xie Changqing saw her wearing a feather hat at a seafood restaurant on the island and thought she was beautiful at first sight.

"Then I won't wear it today." Shalan raised the corners of her lips and said provocatively.

Xie Changqing also smiled, "It's up to you, as long as you're happy... I'll go out with you today."

Only then did Mei Xiyuan come to his senses, "W-who are you?"

"I?"

Xie Changqing turned around and said calmly: "I am her——"

"Guard." Shallan said.

Xie Changqing was silent for a moment and did not explain, "It's a guard." Mei Xiyuan stared at Xie Changqing for a long time, feeling that even if this man stood there quietly, he was as powerful as a mountain and full of momentum.

And although she was dressed very low-key, if she got closer and took a closer look, she could tell that the material was not ordinary.

He didn't look like a guard at all.

Xie Changqing asked: "When will you leave?"

"..."

Mei Xiyuan was silent and said: "Wait a moment... Yaya probably didn't have breakfast. I asked someone to bring the egg yolk cake specially made by the cook at home."

When Xie Changqing heard the word "Yaya", his eyebrows twitched, but he didn't say a word.

Shallan's eyebrows also wrinkled.

Egg yolk crisp.

I really don't like the taste.

Fortunately, Sang He bought fish porridge at this time.

The doctor's wife also quickly cleared the table and invited Sha Lan, Xie Changqing, Mei Xiyuan and others in for breakfast.

Mei Xiyuan put the octagonal food box containing the egg yolk cake on the table, and introduced the taste of the egg yolk cake to Sha Lan with great interest, "The cook in my house is famous within a three hundred mile radius of Danzhou."

"My mother put a lot of thought into inviting her back home. Yaya, give it a try."

Mei Xiyuan enthusiastically took an egg yolk cake and handed it to Shalan.

Shalan was silent for a moment before answering.

As for Xie Changqing, a guard was certainly not worthy of Mei Xiyuan handing over egg yolk cakes with his own hands, and Mei Xiyuan was very puzzled.

The guard named Sang He was standing aside. Why did this guard come to the table?

Xie Changqing opened the fish porridge that Sang He brought, took a small spoon, and brought it to Sha Lan.

He saw Sang He buying this fish porridge for Shalan last time at the back window of the inn, and knew that this was Shalan's favorite taste.

Shalan bit a corner of the egg yolk cake symbolically, "It's delicious, but I want to eat porridge today."

Then he handed the egg yolk cake to Xie Changqing.

Xie Changqing took it and silently ate the egg yolk cake himself.

Mei Xiyuan froze, feeling like a slap on his face, and he could no longer hold his smile.

He sat there silently, looking at Xie Changqing and then at Sha Lan, trying to say something to warm up the atmosphere, but he seemed unable to speak. He wanted to pass another egg yolk cake to Sha Lan and let her try something else. taste.

But just now, looking at Shalan’s appearance, she probably doesn’t like eating very much?

Mei Xiyuan spent the entire breakfast in such a tangled and uncomfortable mood.

Sha Lan didn't speak, and neither did Xie Changqing.

It's just that the two of them seemed to have a tacit understanding.

Sha Lan ate less and left half of the fish porridge, but Xie Changqing didn't mind.

He has been in the army for many years and has long lost the bad habits of those wealthy young men who are pretentious, not to mention that this is what is left of Shalan.

But they were so indifferent to each other that Mei Xiyuan stood there with a pale face.

If you didn't realize that Xie Changqing's "guard" was unusual at this time, how could that be possible?

If you are smart enough to retreat in time, you can still maintain your dignity.

But Mei Xiyuan came from a wealthy family and had always wanted what he wanted since he was a child. For the first time, he felt like he couldn't get what he wanted. He actually didn't care about being polite or not, and said with a forced smile: "Then eat. Let's go!"

Shalan stood up and followed Mei Xiyuan out.

Xie Changqing followed them.

When he got outside, Mei Xiyuan enthusiastically helped Shalan to get into the carriage.

Sha Lan glanced at Xie Changqing and went up with a smile. (End of chapter)
