Sugar Jar [Rebirth]

Liu Ruohan took the things ordered by the steward and walked to the front yard.

According to his instructions, it seemed that he wanted to send the food box in his hand to the kitchen for the cook.

Liu Ruohan hurriedly walked forward with her head bowed.

Unexpectedly, at this time, I heard someone calling: "The one in front, stop for me."

A young boy who looked about twelve or thirteen years old stared at him with an unfriendly expression. He was dressed in excellent clothes, spoke arrogantly, and glanced lightly at Liu Ruohan, as if he was looking at some goods.

Liu Ruohan felt a little uncomfortable with his gaze, she quickly lowered her head, but secretly guessed in her heart, hearing that there was a guest in the mansion, this must be the youngest son of Mrs. Shi's cousin, who everyone couldn't dodge in time.

I heard that he has a spoiled temper and is not easy to get along with.

The second young master of the Hou's Mansion just showed no mercy to those who provoked him, but this one took the initiative to ask for trouble and was rude to those whom he provoked.

He secretly thought it was bad luck, why did he meet this one as soon as he came out.

Seeing him lower his eyebrows and say nothing, Zhou Anhao's face became even more ugly, "You actually ignored my words?"

Originally, his mother brought him here, in addition to wanting to apply for an official position for his father, she also planned to have a son from a family in the mansion serve as a companion for his cousin.

But he didn't expect that he came a step late. His cousin who would inherit the title in the future already had a book boy by his side.

Originally, he thought that if the servant became Shi Lin's confidant, then after he inherited everything in the Hou Mansion in the future, the Zhou family would be able to go smoothly.

When he came here, his parents kept telling Zhou Anhao to get along well with his two cousins. Although he didn't take it to heart, he also knew how important what he asked for was to his parents.

It is necessary to be more polite to the master of the mansion, but the book boy next to Shi Lin shouldn't have to greet him with a good face, right?

What's more, his existence made the mother's original plan come to nothing.

Thinking of this, Zhou Anhao looked at Liu Ruohan's displeasure even more, and felt that everything about him was an eyesore.

Liu Ruohan said in a low voice: "The little one still has things to do, so I need to go ahead."

The servants of the Hou's Mansion saw that Young Master Biao seemed to be having an argument with a school boy, and quickly looked at the people next to him, signaling them to report to the master as soon as possible.

Although there are many rules in Jingkehou Mansion, there is one thing that is different from other places.

That is, if the punishment is punished, the punishment will be punished, but if the subordinates have not made a mistake, they will protect their shortcomings and will defend them to the end.This is why everyone in the Hou's mansion is loyal to their master.

Zhou Anhao also seemed to notice the gazes of the people around him, his face turned cold slightly, and then he threw the jade pendant around his waist, and threw the things into the pool.

He proudly said to Liu Ruohan: "My things fell into the water, go and help me pick them up."

In such a cold winter, the water in the pool was about to freeze, and Zhou Anhao actually sent people into the water directly.

Even the servant next to Zhou Anhao couldn't help showing a look of pity.

Originally, they did not bring him to the capital this time, but a young master from a concubine. The ancestral home of the Zhou family was far away from the capital, and they were going to beg for help. At the age of learning to behave in the world, the mansion randomly picked a young master from a concubine.

This opportunity is dispensable for the son-in-law, but for the young masters born out of the concubines, this opportunity is very rare.

After hearing that, the young master's aunt couldn't tell how happy she was. Her son had been neglected for a long time, and now he finally got a chance. How could she not be delighted? It is also good for the future for children to be able to communicate with outsiders.

After Zhou Anhao heard about it, he wanted to go out to play with his parents, so he did everything possible to get his family to agree.

Knowing that his parents would not agree, he slashed the brother's face with a whip, and said triumphantly, this time it won't be possible.

Seeing the child's injury, the aunt immediately fainted from fright.

The young master of their family was indeed spoiled. The ancestors in the house doted on him. After hearing the news, they didn't mean to blame him, and directly sent his son to take his precious grandson.

Before Mrs. Zhou came, she repeatedly told him to pay attention to his temper. Zhou Anhao promised well, but he forgot what his parents said in a blink of an eye.

When he was at home, he regarded human life as worthless, and never regarded his servants as human beings.

Hearing this, Liu Ruohan's body trembled, and when she looked at the cold pool water, her heart skipped a beat.

He pursed his lips, put the food box aside, and walked towards the lotus pond.

When Shi Chen heard the news, he and Xi Xin had already written ten pages.

When Xi Xin heard them mention Liu Ruohan, his eyes flashed with shock for a moment, he looked at Shi Chen in puzzlement, and asked, "That Young Master Biao, why did you target him?"

Shi Chen paused for a moment, put the brush back to its original place, and said calmly: "He only targeted Liu Ruohan as a book boy."

Zhou Lin has always wanted to show kindness to Shi Lin, and wanted to arrange people into the mansion, he had known about this for a long time.

It's just that he didn't expect that these people were so stupid and so self-righteous.

Could it be that he really thought his mother was a living Bodhisattva, and could tolerate them coveting everything in Jingkehou's mansion?

When Xi Xin heard the news, she couldn't sit still.

"In such cold weather, Liu Ruohan will die." Xi Xin put the things away and wanted to run out.

Shi Chen held his hand and sighed helplessly: "Let's go, go and have a look."

Xi Xin nodded, but inadvertently frowned, he ran to the side, picked up the thick cloak, and hugged it tightly in his arms.

When Shi Chen saw it, he knew that he wanted to give it to Liu Ruohan.

Regardless of whether it was the previous life or this life, the relationship between Xi Xin and Liu Ruohan seemed to be so good.

When Liu Ruohan picked up the jade pendant, her lips were already pale from the cold, and she couldn't stop shaking.

Hearing the movement not far away, he raised his head in a daze, but saw Xi Xin running towards him, and threw the cloak over his body.

He whispered to Liu Ruohan: "When I go back, take a bath with hot water first. They made ginger soup, and after drinking it, my body will warm up. If you feel uncomfortable, remember to speak up."

Xi Xin exhorted in a broken voice, her voice choked with sobs.

Instead, Liu Ruohan smiled at him, her face paler: "I'm fine, don't worry."

Shi Chen walked slowly in front of Zhou Anhao, and glanced at him with a half-smile.

Seeing that the master finally came, the servants also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Cousin, cousin." Regarding Shi Chen, Zhou Anhao was still a little embarrassed. He had offended him when he was ignorant when he was a child, and he was severely taught a lesson.The parents who have always loved him not only did not vent their anger on him, but instead asked him to apologize to Shi Chen.From then on, Zhou Anhao knew that there were some people he couldn't afford to provoke.

Shi Chen ignored his words, and said to Xi Xin: "Take him back, I'll take care of the rest."

He knew that if Xi Xin was not allowed to accompany Liu Ruohan, this soft-hearted guy would definitely keep thinking about it.

Xi Xin nodded, helped him up, and walked back to the courtyard with Liu Ruohan.

The servants at the side picked up Liu Ruohan's dropped food box and sent it to the kitchen for him.

Seeing him talking to outsiders so calmly, Zhou Anhao couldn't help asking one more question curiously: "Cousin, is that your bookboy?"

Seeing that he seems to have given Xi Xin his attention, Shi Chen condensed his eyes.

He stepped forward and whispered something in Zhou Anhao's ear.

In the eyes of others, they thought it was the two cousins ​​who were talking about themselves together.

However, Shi Chen said to Zhou Anhao in a cold tone: "If you dare to harm Xi Xin, I will make you die."

Zhou Anhao's eyes widened, he subconsciously took a step back, quickly shook his head, and denied, "I won't, don't worry." He promised.

Shi Chen's expression returned to normal in an instant, he patted his shoulder, and said with a smile: "Speaking of which, we haven't seen each other for a long time. Let's go, I'll take you to my yard for a stroll."

Zhou Anhao's servants were about to follow, but Shi Chen watched him freeze in place.

At least in his heart, Zhou Anhao still remembered what his mother told him to get along with his two cousins, so he waved his hand and asked them to back off.

After the farce here was over, the servants in the Hou's mansion withdrew their gazes with complicated expressions, almost thinking in their hearts that if Zhou Lin raised such a child, he might cause a catastrophe in the future.

When Xi Xin sent Liu Ruohan back to the house, she had just entered the room when Liu Ruohan, who was supporting herself, became limp and almost fell to the ground.

Xi Xin supported him, and the two of them stood together, finally standing firm.

"Go take a shower first, I'll wait for you outside."

Xi Xin was sitting at the table behind the screen, and someone had already brought hot water over.

Liu Ruohan took off all her clothes and sat in the bathtub, looking at the marks on her body that had been turned purple from the cold pool water, his eyes darkened a bit, thinking of Xi Xin's unconcealable worried expression when he ran towards him , His heart suddenly had mixed feelings.

Seeing such a distressed side by Xi Xin, will he feel that he is useless?

It's all that Zhou Anhao...

Hearing that there seemed to be no movement inside, Xi Xin was a little worried that he had passed out, so she hurriedly called, "Liu Ruohan?"

Every time I heard his soft voice, I would feel in a good mood, Liu Ruohan's expression eased, and she replied, "Yes."

"Are you scared?" Xi Xin said worriedly.

Liu Ruohan was silent for a moment, then smiled: "I'm not afraid."

The person who should be afraid should not be him.

I don’t know if anyone still remembers... the vase that was smashed by Shi Chen in the beginning, the vase from the Tang Dynasty...
