Sugar Jar [Rebirth]

Chapter 2 Little Book Boy

Xi Xin looked at the candy in his hand. His eyes, which were covered with mist due to ignorance, were gradually covered by joy. He slightly bent his lips, looked up at Shi Lin, and immediately showed him a clean smile. It was as if dewdrops were gently dripping on the palm of his hand, it was itchy, but he couldn't help but make people smile along with him.

In the past, when he was unhappy, his father would secretly give him candies, eating sweet things, feeling that all unpleasant things would be dispelled.

The uneasiness in Xi Xin's heart about the unfamiliar environment was relieved in an instant.

Shi Lin didn't look at him anymore, but stood in front of Mrs. Shi with cold eyes, and unconsciously clenched Xi Xin's hand just now, as if he was still holding his hand.

Seeing his appearance, Madam Shi breathed a sigh of relief knowing that her son was very satisfied with the partner she had chosen.

This child seems gentle, but in fact he is very alienated from everyone. He hardly cares about anything. Mrs. Shi is really afraid that one day he will run away to become a monk if he can't think about it.

Thinking of the evaluation of the two children in the family by the Taoist who passed by before, Mrs. Shi frowned slightly.

Seeing that her expression suddenly became cold, the housekeeper was startled, thinking that Madam was dissatisfied with Xi Xin, even Xi Xin was keenly aware of the strangeness of the atmosphere at this time, and hurriedly lowered her head, not daring to move .

And the other children looked at Mrs. Shi timidly, feeling extremely uneasy.

Before coming, the parents of several children told them to listen to the nobleman and try to please the eldest son. The eldest son has the best temper and loves to read. He is not as weird as the second son, like a little devil.

It's just that now, Madam seems to be more optimistic about the young boy who just came over?

Then, wouldn't they be distributed to the young master?

"Mom." Shi Lin called out seemingly unintentionally.

Only then did Mrs. Shi come back to her senses, marveling at how she had been distracted for so long just now, and then turned her head to look at Xi Xin, because of her silence just now, the child thought he had done something wrong, her face was so pale, seeing her gaze It landed on him, wanting to look but not daring to look, and finally showed a smiling face.

Mrs. Shi smiled, looked at Shi Lin, as if she could see through his mind, and said, "In that case, then Xi Xin..."

With a "bang", the door that was originally closed was pushed open by gravity, and a young man in dark clothes ran in panting, behind him was a servant who hurriedly followed, calling out while chasing: "Second young master! "

Shi Chen stood outside the door with a cold expression, staring straight at the young man next to Shi Lin, the flash of light in his eyes was frighteningly complicated.

Mrs. Shi looked over in surprise, and seeing her youngest son rushing over in such a hurry, she waved her hand and signaled him to come here.

"What's the matter? I was sick yesterday, why don't you take a good rest." Seeing that Shi Chen was still silent, Mrs. Shi walked over and took his hand.

"I heard that my mother is going to choose a book boy for my brother. I also want to come and see." Shi Chen's voice was a little hoarse due to his illness. Although he was led by Mrs. Shi, his eyes were still fixed on Xi Xin. voila.

When Mrs. Shi led him to walk over, Shi Chen pretended nothing happened and stood between Shi Lin and Xi Xin casually, just covering the young man's frail body.

Mrs. Shi was slightly taken aback, then smiled, and said helplessly: "When did you start to be interested in these things?"

This kid also doesn't like to study, he acts like a demon king all day long, which makes people worry. Although Shi Lin looks calm and smart, he has ideas. None of these two brothers can make her worry.

Mrs. Shi sighed. Since she was a child, she wanted to have a well-behaved doll who could curl up in her arms and call mother softly.

It's just that these two sons are really...

"Second brother is healthy? Why don't you rest in the room for a while, so as to save mother from worrying." Although Shi Lin's tone was light, he could still hear the concern in his words.

Shi Chen gave him a complicated look, as if he wanted to say something, and then slowly replied: "It's nothing serious."

"By the way, mother, are all the little bookboys you said you wanted to pick for your brother here?" Shi Chen's eyes circled around the people below, and after being scrutinized by his eyes, several teenagers bowed their heads one after another. With sharp eyes staring at him, his body couldn't help trembling a little, and everyone secretly prayed that the devil incarnation would never stare at them.

The eldest son is just not very close to people, but this little son is not easy to mess with!

Sensing their fear of him, Shi Chen withdrew his gaze in satisfaction, and put his gaze on the person next to him as if nothing had happened.

From the moment he entered the room, Xi Xin felt a strong gaze staring at her, until the moment he walked in, the sense of oppression did not ease at all.

The people around seem to be afraid of him?

Being stared at like this, Xi Xin didn't dare to look up.

Seeing him lowering his head, as if he was going to shrink the whole person into a ball, trying to reduce his sense of existence, he looked extremely wronged and innocent.

Shi Chen's expression eased slightly, and then he laughed out loud.

Not to mention Xi Xin, even Mrs. Shi looked at it curiously.

It's just that he saw his son standing upright, with no expression on his face, as if the laughter just now didn't come from him.

Mrs. Shi looked away.

Hearing such an obvious laughter, Xi Xin raised her head in doubt, and caught off guard into a pair of deep eyes, the emotion revealed in the eyes was incomprehensible.

Seeing Xi Xin raise his head, Shi Chen moved his lips, but because he deliberately lowered his voice, basically no one heard what he meant.

In the early years, Xi Xin learned some lip language from the gentleman who traveled to the village with him, and could distinguish the meaning of his words.

What this person said was clearly "nerd".

He stared at him with rounded eyes, like a frightened deer, there was a trace of mist in his clear and clean eyes like a stream.

Xi Xin pinched the candy tightly in her hand, and took a few steps back.

The man seemed to have a bad temper and called him a nerd.

Noticing his movements, Shi Chen was stunned for a moment, then as if remembering something, he stared at the thing in Xi Xin's hand unkindly, then turned his head to look at Shi Lin.

Shi Lin tilted his head slightly, and said to Mrs. Shi: "Mother, you haven't finished talking about what happened just now."

His words seemed to have relieved the siege of everyone present, Mrs. Shi, who had originally let Shi Chen mess around, looked at him in surprise.

Shi Lin was a little uncomfortable, and then showed a gentle smile, as if he asked in a very puzzled way: "Why does mother look at me like this?"

Mrs. Shi smiled: "Nothing."

"Xi Xin, you will follow from now on..." She looked at the young man who was a little far away from the two of them, and was about to finish the rest when she heard Shi Chen interrupt her directly.

"Mother." Shi Chen's face was pale, and his handsome brows and eyes were full of seriousness.

He pointed directly at Xi Xin, and said bluntly, "I want him."

When they saw the direction Shi Chen was pointing at, the rest of the children breathed a sigh of relief, and they all rejoiced in their hearts that they were not the ones chosen.

Xi Xin didn't have their thoughts, he only knew that he was here to study with the young master in the mansion, and it didn't matter which one he was, as long as he obediently listened to the nobles.

It's just that this person has a weird temper, so he can only give in a little bit.Xi Xin thought secretly.

Mrs. Shi was not in a hurry to agree to his request, she looked at Shi Chen slowly, and said: "This is what mother chose for your brother, whoever you want, mother will choose for you."

Shi Chen's eyes darkened a bit, then he pursed his lips and said stubbornly, "I want him."

It was the first time seeing him expressing his desire for something so strongly. Mrs. Shi couldn't help teasing him, saying: "But this is a book boy for my brother, and you don't like studying. If you choose, you have to go to school obediently." oh."

The thing that Shi Chen bothers most about studying is that he hates everything related to love affairs. After all, he first promised his eldest son.

"Okay, go to the private school." Shi Chen replied almost without thinking, without any hesitation.

Shi Lin gave him a deep look, and there was a trace of turbulence on his calm face.

He closed his eyes slightly, then slowly opened them.

The mother always loves the second brother, and this time, I'm afraid it will be no exception.

Mrs. Shi was even more surprised, she glanced at Shi Chen unexpectedly, and emphasized: "I agreed this time, don't think about going back on my word. If you change your mind in the future, Mother will ask your father to punish you."

Hearing these words, he knew that Mrs. Shi had begun to loosen. Shi Chen's eyes lit up slightly, as if he had obtained the most beloved treasure, and he nodded seriously to his mother: "I will never regret it!"

Shi Chen walked up to Xi Xin, seeing the boots underneath, Xi Xin subconsciously took a step back, but almost bumped into someone else.

Shi Chen stretched out his hand to hold him, and said with a low smile, "Stupid."

He held Xi Xin's hand with such force that it was almost impossible to break free, but he controlled it lightly and did not hurt Xi Xin.

Xi Xin looked at him with eyes full of mist, and was about to say something, but thought that she was now his book boy, and she wanted to be obedient, so she closed her mouth tightly again.

A whiteness flashed before his eyes, Mrs. Shi called out: "Lin'er!"

Shi Chen held on to Xi Xin's hand, and the two looked out the door.

Shi Chen straightened his body, standing up straight, holding Xi Xin's hand with his right hand but did not let go.

"Mother, you can decide the rest of the matter, the child has no objection." After saying this, Shi Lin walked out without even looking this way.

Mrs. Shi looked outside the door, then at Shi Chen who seemed to be in a good mood at the moment, and sighed helplessly.

These two kids...

"Mother, I took him back to the yard." Shi Chen said goodbye to Mrs. Shi.

Mrs. Shi looked at the thin young boy next to him. He was obviously about the same age, but he looked much thinner than Shi Chen.

She couldn't help frowning and said: "Chen'er, restrain your temper, don't..."

"Got it, mother!" Shi Chen replied immediately without listening to her words.

Then, he took Xi Xin and ran away.

Then came the sound of servants following behind, chasing and shouting.

——"Master, you, you slow down!"

The author has something to say:
