The boy is hard to handle

As I was walking towards Qizitang, I heard the sound of crackling firecrackers outside the high wall, mixed with the laughter of children——

"What are you doing outside? Why are you so noisy?"

"Back to the second master, the dragon and phoenix lanterns are going to be set off on the main street today. The guard of honor should have been passing by and set off firecrackers. There are quite a few children picking up firecrackers outside right now." said the nanny who was on duty to hold the lanterns.

"So that's the case." Xue Yanrong nodded thoughtfully.

"If the second master thinks it's noisy, the old slave will go out and drive them away."

"No, let them pick it up, it's a bit noisy, and it's more lively."

Just as Xue Yanrong was about to lift his feet, he stopped again. He raised his eyes to look at a quiet courtyard. Although it was prosperous and rich, it lacked a sense of humanity. Compared with the laughter of the children outside the wall at this moment, every movement and silence distinct.

Turning around, he asked again——

"Is the dragon and phoenix lantern beautiful?"

The nanny was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said——

"Of course it's beautiful, and it's not just dragon and phoenix lanterns, there are many other ones too. It's quite lively tonight."

"is it?"

Xue Yanrong pursed her lips, suddenly didn't want to go back, turned around——

"Then I'll go out and have a look!"

After speaking, he went out through the side door in the east corner.

It happened that the group of children were still squatting on the ground picking up firecrackers. Xue Yanrong suddenly felt a little envious when she heard the joyous laughter. She couldn't remember how many years she hadn't seen such a smile——

No matter how tough a person is, there are also times when his heart is weak. There are too many intrigues and calculations in the family. Even if you want to laugh, you always have to be wary of others. Out.

Xue Yanrong stretched out his hand and called the oldest child over, and then led him to surround the firecracker stand not far away——

"Thank you, master! Thank you, master!" The older child kept bowing to Xue Yanrong.

"Let's go play."

Xue Yanrong waved his hand.

"There's a firecracker! There's a firecracker!"

Hearing the cheers of the children, Xue Yanrong couldn't help but turned his head to take a look again, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, as if he was also satisfied in his heart.

Then continue walking towards the main street.

Because it was the fifteenth day, although it was already dark, the streets were still bustling, with lanterns, jugglers, and various vendors setting up stalls everywhere.

With his hands behind his back, Xue Yanrong wandered casually, taking a second look at interesting things, and walking on uninteresting ones.

Seeing that the whole street is about to go to the end, but I haven't come across anything I like——

Sure enough, I was not a person who could join in the fun, and was about to leave when the crowd suddenly gathered——

It turned out that the dragon and phoenix lanterns were going to be put on.

It's all here, so let's go and have a look, you can't just walk around and see nothing.

Xue Yanrong followed the crowd and squeezed into the crowd. He just found a good place, and before he had time to glance at the lantern, he heard a familiar voice——

"My candied haws! Candied haws!"

Xue Yanrong's eyes froze, and he subconsciously looked in the direction of the voice——

It was her.

I saw Jiang Youqing jumping and looking ahead, holding the candied haws in one hand and the candy man in the other, holding them high above his head, for fear of being knocked off by someone, and he would not be able to eat, that gluttonous and playful appearance, Not to mention how funny it is.

For some reason, the corners of Xue Yanrong's lips curled up unconsciously——

This Miss Jiang has been like this since the first time I met her. Every time there is always some commotion, otherwise it will not stop.

Xue Yanrong shook his head, thinking of his younger sister Xue Yinhan, if she had such a temperament, the house would probably be more lively, and he would not have to run out to listen to the laughter of outsiders.

Seeing more and more people watching, Xue Yanrong was also squeezed and had to back away——

If the excitement is too much, I don't think it's fun anymore, besides, Xue Yanrong is not a person who likes to be lively, so I watch it now, I watch it now, instead of huddling together in a noisy way, it's better to go home , isn't it just a dragon and phoenix lantern? If you really want it, it's not impossible to tie one in the original shape.

Thinking about it, I want to leave.

But at this moment, she found that Jiang Youqing was standing in front of her at some point, and looked down, she was rubbing the half-eaten candied haws back and forth on her clothes, sticky and pulling the candy——

It was probably the first time Xue Yanrong encountered such a thing, and he was stunned for a while, looking up at Jiang Youqing's petite back, frowning, and not frowning——

Only sighed silently in my heart——

'Why did everything go wrong once I met her? '

Forget it, I'm not that caressing person, I'd better go back and change clothes right now.

Just as he was about to turn around and leave, Xue Yanrong's expression darkened again——

If she read correctly, the man beside him seemed to deliberately want to rub against Jiang Youqing's body, especially the right arm, which was swaying back and forth eagerly.

Xue Yanrong is not troublesome, but he is definitely not someone whose eyes can hold sand. At this moment, he bumped him deliberately with his shoulder, wanting to remind him, but the man not only ignored him, but became even more presumptuous. Touching under the girl's waist——

Immediately, Xue Yanrong's gaze became fierce, and before the man could touch her, she pinched the man's veins first, pushed him out of the crowd, and pinned him to the ground——

The man fell to the ground with his buttocks, and he didn't seem to have reacted yet, but Xue Yanrong didn't care so much, he raised his foot and kicked him -

To deal with such people, to be soft is to help the evildoers.

The people who were watching the lanterns at this moment all turned their heads now——

Among them, there are some good people who shouted——

"It's a fight! It's a fight! Come and see!"

That man was also a smug man, he was quite tall, and Xue Yanrong kicked him so hard that he couldn't get up——

"You! Who are you! Why did you hit me?!"

"I hit you!" Xue Yanrong kicked again, and was about to kick it.

A little man emerged from the crowd——

"cousin?"

Xue Yanrong suddenly retracted the raised foot, turned around and saw Jiang Youqing's round eyes staring in surprise.

Jiang Youqing probably didn't expect to meet Xue Yanrong here, and he even beat his cousin.

Xue Yanrong looked at the people on the ground, and then at Jiang Youqing in front of him, as if he understood something.

But at this moment, the frown was even deeper.

The man on the ground was none other than Jiang Youqing's cousin and Luo Eryi's own brother - Luo Xunlin.

"Youqing! This man is a lunatic! Quickly give me a hand."

Hearing this, Jiang Youqing just stretched out his hand, but Xue Yanrong took a quick step forward, standing between the two of them, forcibly separating them.

"Is he your cousin?" Xue Yanrong said with a sullen expression.

Jiang Youqing didn't know what happened, so he just nodded.

Xue Yanrong turned his gaze again, fixedly looking at Luo Xunlin on the ground——

Perhaps Xue Yanrong's aura was too strong, or Luo Xunlin had some ghosts in his heart, so he didn't cry out at this moment, and after dusting off the dirt on his body, he quickly got up, his eyes dodged, and he looked very guilty. .

"Cousin, let's go."

"Wait a moment!"

"You, what are you doing?" Luo Xunlin shrank back, as if he was afraid that Xue Yanrong would hit him again.

Xue Yanrong raised his chin, but didn't look at him, but pointed at Jiang Youqing, pointing to the place where the candy silk was hanging on the hem of his clothes——

"You ruined my clothes, you have to pay me."

Jiang Youqing's eyes froze. If she hadn't heard it with her own ears, she wouldn't have believed it. This would be what Xue Yanrong said. Rao is someone who doesn't care about expensive travel expenses. How could she let herself pay for his clothes?

Xue Yanrong ignored Jiang Youqing's surprise at the moment, turned his head and looked at Luo Xunlin again, "Since you are his cousin, then you can pay for her. I don't want much, just twenty silver."

How could Luo Xunlin have so much money? Qi Pingnan had set all the expenses for him on weekdays, so it would be nice to have some money on him now.

"If you say you will pay, you will pay?! Do you have evidence?!"

"evidence?"

Xue Yanrong snatched the candied haws from Jiang Youqing's hand, only to see a few strands of silk satin on the tip of the front, and then pointed to the hem of his clothes——

"How? There is evidence."

Where did Luo Xunlin encounter such a scene, he immediately didn't know what to do, instead he blamed Jiang Youqing——

"Cousin, you, why are you so careless."

Jiang Youqing was also at a loss. There were so many people and crowded just now, he didn't notice it at all. Who would have thought that it was a coincidence that his clothes were hung up.

"me--"

Xue Yanrong looked at Jiang Youqing's stuttering appearance, and didn't intend to let it go. He raised his eyebrows and said solemnly——

"Go home and get the money, or I will report to the official, but I can tell you in advance that my clothes can be made of high-quality Suzhou and Hangzhou silk. Now I only need 20 taels, but if I report to the official, how much compensation will I have? I don't know anymore."

Luo Xunlin swallowed, rolled his eyes a few times——

"Okay! Then let's go home and get the money now."

After finishing speaking, he winked at Jiang Youqing and asked her to go with him.

Such a small trick, placed in front of Xue Yanrong, will not be able to stand on the stage at all——

As soon as the arm was raised, the voice sank——

"She has to stay, you go back and get it."

"How about that?!"

"Why not?" Xue Yanrong frowned, "If you all run away, who should I talk to?"

Then he paused for a moment, and said again: "You can stay for him."

"How can it work?! I didn't break it!" Luo Xunlin immediately widened his eyes and picked himself clean.

Seeing his cowardly look, Xue Yanrong was even more annoyed——

"Don't talk nonsense! Hurry up and go back to get the money! Otherwise, I'll take the officer to your door to get it!"

How could Luo Xunlin be Xue Yanrong's opponent? After being frightened by such a pass, he immediately panicked——

"Cousin, cousin, wait for me, I'll go back and find my mother!"

After speaking, he pushed aside the crowd and disappeared without a trace.

Xue Yanrong looked at the crowd watching the excitement around him, and waved his hands——

"What are you looking at! It's gone!"

After the scene just now, everyone can see that this is not easy to mess with, and they all disperse immediately. Those who should watch the lanterns should watch the lanterns, and those who should continue shopping should continue shopping.

Now Xue Yanrong and Jiang Youqing were the only ones standing still.

Jiang Youqing restrained her hands and feet, and looked down at the hanging silk on Xue Yanrong's clothes. She knew that Xue Yanrong hadn't lied to her. As long as you have long eyes, you will know that it is not cheap at a glance, let alone 20 taels, I am afraid that 100 taels is cheap.

"I'm sorry, I-I didn't mean to."

Xue Yanrong didn't answer her words, but looked her up and down, and asked after a while——

"Why are you alone? What about the maid who always followed?"

"You said the end of the year, she caught wind two days ago and was not feeling well, so I didn't let her out."

"So you sneaked out today?"

"Of course not." Jiang Youqing said softly, "I came out with my cousin and a few friends I knew, but there were so many people that we got separated as we walked."

It was said that she was separated, but in fact Luo Eryi deliberately led others to isolate her, and they separated from Jiang Youqing as soon as they left the house.

Xue Yanrong's brows are still frowning——

"You said that was your cousin?"

"Ah."

"Then do you have a marriage contract?"

Jiang Youqing seemed to hear some incredible words, shaking his head like a rattle——

"of course not!"

"Then you like him?"

Jiang Youqing's face turned red immediately, if I remember correctly, this is the third time they have seen each other, why did they say such things the first time they opened their mouths? !

Suddenly, I remembered what I said to myself before the end of the year—"Miss, he won't be interested in you, right?" '

Immediately, Jiang Youqing's heart skipped a beat.

Thinking of the scene when I bumped into him last time - not to mention visiting the brothel, but also made the girl of the Yu family cry, even if he is kind, he is still a libertine.

How can such a person get involved?

Jiang Youqing panicked, and immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

Seeing that she hadn't spoken for a long time, Xue Yanrong got a little impatient——

"Are you dumb? Asking you something!"

"You, what do you want to do? I, I'm still young!" Jiang Youqing backed away while talking.

Xue Yanrong saw that she was thinking wrongly, and immediately felt a little helpless. The word "colored ghost" was not engraved on his face, but it was just that she bumped into him once in Quanxiang Pavilion. This is good, what kind of person do you think of yourself? ?

Although I was a little displeased in my heart, I didn't want to argue too much with her at the moment, so I simply said directly——

"Let me remind you that your cousin is not a good person, not even a gentleman. If you admire him, you'd better stop thinking about it quickly. If you insist on going your own way, then just pretend I didn't say anything."

The words are so straightforward, Jiang Youqing is really a fool if he doesn’t understand——

"Then you just said on purpose to ask me to pay money?"

Xue Yanrong raised his eyebrows, looking like you have a brain.

"You, why did you say that?" Jiang Youqing thought of Luo Xunlin's appearance when he was beaten to the ground just now, and he was even more puzzled, "Do you know my cousin?"

"A shameless villain, not worthy of my acquaintance." Xue Yanrong waved his hand, "Come on, I've said everything that needs to be said, and you can handle the rest yourself."

After finishing speaking, he was about to leave, but the next moment, the person behind him grabbed his sleeve again——

"You speak clearly!"

Xue Yanrong looked down at his tugged sleeves, then looked at Jiang Youqing's upturned little face, with a look of reluctance, and suddenly sighed, it's his sister Xue Yinhan's temperament is better.

"Let me go, what are you talking about on the street?"

"If you speak clearly, I will let go!" Jiang Youqing was not afraid of him at all, and his hand was tighter than before.

"How did I meet such a master as you?"

Xue Yanrong frowned, his sullen face was a bit scary, but Jiang Youqing was not afraid of death, shrunk his shoulders, and refused to let go——

"You said half of what you said, and it was you who were wrong first."

Xue Yanrong really wanted to push her away with one arm, but looking at the small one, he couldn't really do it, could he?

Immediately, he changed the subject, raised his eyebrows and asked——

"You really want me to finish?"

"Ok!"

"That's what you said."

Jiang Youqing paid attention to what he said, but forgot that Xue Yanrong is a master who must take revenge——

Being so embarrassed by himself at this moment, how could he let it go, if he didn't return it, he wouldn't be Xue Yanrong.

"That good cousin of yours tried to touch your ass, I saw it, and I hit him—"

"Stop talking!"

Before the words were finished, Jiang Youqing's face turned purple, and the hand that was holding Xue Yanrong's sleeve immediately let go.

"Look, I won't tell you what I said, but you insisted on telling me, and I said it, and you blushed again—it's boring."

"you you!"

Jiang Youqing was ashamed, and his eyes immediately turned red——

"Hey—are you going to cry? Don't—"

Before she finished speaking, Jiang Youqing's tears fell. She had big eyes, but crying made her look even more delicate.

Xue Yanrong regretted it, she shouldn't have come out, even if she did, she shouldn't care about the mess just now, just touch it, anyway, it's not her who touched it, why are you so kind?

This is a good move, trouble is coming for those who fight against injustice.

"You, can you stop crying?"

"You bully people."

"It's your cousin who is bullying, not me."

"You said it!"

"Okay, I'm afraid of you, tell me, how can you stop crying?"

Jiang Youqing looked down at the candied haws that fell on the ground, and then raised his head again, with pitiful eyes in his eyes.

Xue Yanrong let out a long sigh, and kept nodding——

"I'm unlucky."

When Luo Xunlin came with Qi Pingnan, only Jiang Youqing was left alone——

"What are you holding?" Qi Pingnan looked puzzled.

Jiang Youqing is small, holding a whole stick of candied haws filled with candied haws. If she yells again, someone will come to buy it.

"aunt."

"Where is that person?!" Luo Xunlin asked.

"He said he has something to do, there is no hurry, I don't need to pay for it."

"I think he just wants to cheat money!"

Qi Pingnan waved her hand——

"Forget it, as long as it's okay, be careful when you come out in the future."

"Understood, aunt."

Seeing Jiang Youqing carrying such a big guy, Luo Xunlin stepped forward, as if he forgot about leaving Jiang Youqing behind just now——

"Cousin, let me help you."

Jiang Youqing changed his Wei Nuo appearance just now, raised his eyebrows and said——

"No need, I can handle it myself."

Then he bypassed Luo Xunlin and walked to Qi Pingnan's side.

When I got home and entered the house——

"Miss, what did you take?" Sui Man covered his mouth and coughed several times.

Jiang Youqing pulled one from the top and handed it to the end of the year——

"Don't you want to eat candied haws? Eat it, you can eat it for several days."

"Then you bought too much, why don't you eat it as a meal?"

Jiang Youqing blinked——

"It's not impossible."

----

On this side, Yao Shichu waited and waited and saw Xue Yanrong come back. He was wondering whether to go out to find someone, but he came back.

"Where have you been?"

"Don't mention it—" Xue Yanrong's words came to his lips, but he swallowed them back. "I, I went out for a walk, and my stomach was full of panic after eating Yuanxiao."

"Ah? Don't accumulate food, I'll get you two big hawthorn pills—"

"Don't be busy yet—" Xue Yanrong waved his hands, "Give me some clean clothes."

"Didn't you just change it today?" Yao Shichu raised his eyes to look at Xue Yanrong's clothes, only to find that there were several threads hanging from the hem of the clothes. "Hey? What happened?"

When I reached out to touch it, it was still sticky——

"What's this sticking on?"

"There are a lot of people, and the candied haws are on the stick." Xue Yanrong raised his head, let Yao Shichu unbutton his clothes, then changed his clothes again, fastened the collar buttons, and asked in a sudden change of subject——

"Where's Xu Yu? Call him here, I have something to say to him."

"I'll call right away." Yao Shichu threw the clothes into the basket and went out to call for someone.

After a while, Xu Yu came——

"Grandpa, are you looking for me?"

Xue Yanrong held the stove in his hands, slightly frowning——

"Go and ask me about Liu Dakun early tomorrow morning, and see what he's been up to lately?"

"He's very good, how can I find out about him?" Yao Shichu handed him a clean handkerchief.

Xue Yanrong wiped his hands and said: "You are really right. Today is a Hongmen banquet. The old lady said that from now on, the Benshantang will belong to me, and the cloth village on West Street will belong to my second uncle."

"What!" Yao Shichu's eyes widened suddenly.

"Then we are at a big loss!" Xu Yu also frowned at the side, "This old lady is obviously bullying!"

"So, let them know that we are not easy to bully." Xue Yanrong threw the handkerchief in his hand and sat cross-legged on the soft couch, "We want to stay in Beijing in the future, and Benshantang is the first battle. If you win this match, even if you stand firm, grandma and second uncle, even if they have supernatural abilities, don't want to pick me out again."

"But Second Lord, that shantang has become like that, can it still be saved?"

"As long as the imperial medicine is here, Ben Shantang will not die!"

After giving instructions for tomorrow's affairs, Xue Yanrong was in a daze again on the soft couch, watching the flickering candlelight, Jiang Youqing appeared in his mind from time to time, and shook his head——

"Why do you cry so easily? It looks amazing."

After an unknown amount of time, the curtain was lifted, and as soon as Yao Shichu came in, he saw Xue Yanrong sitting on the soft couch with his chin propped——

"Second Master, what are you laughing at?"

Only now did Xue Yanrong come back to his senses, and blinked——

"Am I smiling?"

"Well, I've been laughing for a long time." Yao Shichu said strangely: "What's so funny?"

"It's nothing." Xue Yanrong got off the bed and stretched, "Make the bed, I'm tired."

The author says:

I want to speed up and try to let the second master marry someone in as soon as possible!Hurry up
