Xie Ming

Chapter 147 A Glimpse of the River

In the hall on the first floor of the Xu family's residence, Xiao Jingchuan and Wang Fu sat facing each other awkwardly.

Inside the boudoir on the second floor, the three sisters were completely unaware of what was happening and were still talking through gritted teeth.

As the eldest sister, Hongwen tried her best to persuade her younger sister to get married, but still failed to convince the stubborn Jingyi!
"Oh! My dear sister!"

"This man, Master Wang Fu, has been waiting downstairs for quite some time!"

"Dad still doesn't like him because of what happened to me before, but Wang Fu hasn't backed down either, which shows how sincere he is!"

"As long as you can nod your head, and after mother persuades you to reconcile, dad will definitely give in!"

"You, stop twisting it!"

"When it comes to living at home, a man like this is reliable!"

"How about this, you just give your elder sister some face!"

"Go downstairs and meet with Master Wang Fu. Just meet him once. Is that okay?!"

"It's worth the trip!"

Seeing that persuasion failed, Hongwen had to settle for the next best option and make Jingyi take a step forward anyway.

Seeing this, Jingyi couldn't bear to see her elder sister and mother running around so hard for her, so she had to reluctantly agree.

"Ugh!"

"Elder sister, you"

"alright!"

"As you wish!"

"You said it, just meeting once will be enough!" Jingyi decided on the extent of the concession.

"Chengchengcheng!"

"One side, just one side!"

"My sister is still sensible!"

"Hurry, hurry up!" Hongwen saw Jingyi agreed and hurriedly urged her.

"Humph!"

"Okay, come on, Feng girl, accompany me downstairs for a walk, and come back up after you've walked for a while!"

Jingyi took a deep breath and stood up!
Feng'er, who was beside him, heard the call and wanted to follow.

But at this moment, Hongwen grabbed Feng'er deftly!

"that."

"Feng girl!"

"Yesterday, you told me about a new pattern for embroidering handkerchiefs, and Jingyi showed it to me, but I just can't figure it out!"

"Jingyi, go down first!"

"I'll ask Feng Yatou and ask her to take a look for me."

"In a moment, ha, we will go down to accompany you in a moment!"

After she finished speaking, Hongwen grabbed Feng'er's hand and added some strength. Feng understood what she meant and helped Hongwen to speak.

"Eh!"

"You, you two!"

"Humph, there is no good person left!"

Xu Jingyi was very smart and could tell at a glance that it was her elder sister who was playing tricks on her.

But I had already stood up and there was no reason for me to sit back down!

So she got angry, grabbed her sleeve and ran out of the room in anger!

dong dong dong dong!

Because Jingyi was angry and had no patience with Wang Fu, she deliberately made louder noises when going downstairs, not bothering to maintain the demeanor of a lady!

Boom boom boom!
A few more steps, and the wooden stairs squeaked as Jingyi kicked them in anger!
"Wang Fu!"

"Wang Furen?!"

"My eldest sister said she won't keep you for dinner!"

"Just sit there for a moment, we'll be there soon"

Before you see the person, hear the voice first!
Xu Jingyi was venting her anger and speaking in a rude tone. As she came down the stairs, she actually started to ask the guests to leave!

but!
Just as she was looking down at the hall from the wooden stairs!

Suddenly!
See through at a glance!
It's really like looking at a river at a glance! Xiao Jingchuan's river!
The people sitting in the hall, besides the unlucky Wang Fu, there is also a handsome man in blue. Who else could it be but the long-awaited Xiao Jingchuan? !
Xu Jingyi just stared at it in a daze!

“Ah, hahahaha”

"Jing, Jing, my pretty sister!"

"No, no, no meal!"

"I just saw that Uncle Jialin wasn't at home, so I came over to give you some furs for you to choose from!"

"Wait a minute, I'll be back soon!"

When Wang Fu heard Jingyi's voice, he was startled and jumped up from his chair as if he had been injected with chicken blood.

He hurriedly smiled and agreed. But at this moment, Xu Jingyi didn't even glance in his direction!
Squeak!
As she continued to go downstairs, Jingyi's gait had changed. She now walked in slow and graceful steps, like a little woman!
"Xiao, Xiao Lang!"

"You, when did you come back?!"

"Since you were downstairs, why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Jingyi suppressed her joy, her eyes were full of charm, and after saying a few words, she walked over from the wooden ladder and approached Xiao Jingchuan.

"Oh, haha, I just returned yesterday!"

"I came to your house today when I entered the town because I have something to discuss with your father!"

"Patriarch Xu? How long has he been out?"

"Do you know when I can return?!"

"If something keeps me here, I can come back another day and it will be the same!"

Xiao Jingchuan seemed quite relaxed, indifferent and casual.

"Ah! Don't."

"Well, my father went to Zhenbei early this morning, there's nothing important!"

"I think he'll be back soon!"

"Xiao Lang, are you hungry?"

"I'll go cook you a bowl of noodles, okay?!"

Jingyi was also a little dizzy for a moment, and her words were incoherent.

She is Miss Xu, the youngest sister in the family, spoiled by her parents and loved by her elder sister. How could she have ever cooked?

Now, I don’t know what’s going on, but they are rushing to assign work to me!

"Haha, it's only this late. I'm not hungry. No need to bother!" Xiao Lang declined.

"kindness"

"Ah, then you must be thirsty!"

"You've been sitting downstairs for too long. It's all my fault. I didn't entertain you well enough and didn't think of coming down earlier to serve you tea!"

"Wait a minute, I'll make some tea!"

After saying that, this time, he didn't wait for Xiao Jingchuan to refuse, and ran to the small kitchen behind the hall in quick steps!

Then there was a series of ping-pong sounds, and I didn't know what was going on.

Anyway, after a while, Jingyi finally came out with a tray!
Gulu!
After pouring a cup of tea, Jingyi hurriedly pushed it to Xiao Lang, looking at it eagerly, asking him to drink it.

"Um, then, then what, Jingyi's sister!"

"I, I'm here too!"

"Thirsty, I'm thirsty too!"

At this moment, Xu Jingyi's heart and eyes were all on Xiao Jingchuan. Suddenly, she heard Wang Fu, who was standing beside her, asking for tea without any tact.

Jingyi was very disgusted and glanced over impatiently.

Gulu!
I had to pour another glass.

"Go, drink aside!"

"What a tactless person!"

"After you finish drinking, go back!"

After saying that, Xu Jingyi threw Wang Fu aside again, unwilling to pay any more attention to him.

"Xiao Lang!"

"You've been gone for half a month, back and forth in the mountains, eating and sleeping poorly, you must be exhausted, right?!"

"Did you win the battle this time?"

Jingyi turned her head and continued to find topics to chat with Xiao Jingchuan.

"Haha, soldiers, after marching and fighting for a long time, they get used to it, so it's not that tiring!"

"I've made some small gains on this trip, and I think I won two small battles!"

"Not worth mentioning!"

Xiao Jingchuan responded vaguely and was unwilling to say more, so as not to leak military secrets without reason.

"Wow!"

"Did we really win the battle?!"

"Xiao Lang is so awesome!"

"What is this war like?"

"Tell me about it!"

"Tell me about it!"

"Jingyi is curious and really wants to know!"

Xu Jingyi suddenly started to act coquettishly, speaking softly, but her expression was also somewhat sweet and lovely like a little girl!

This behavior was quite abrupt, and Xiao and Wang, who had been sitting there for a long time, were stunned for a moment!
