Sugar Jar [Rebirth]

Liu Ruohan came out with her things, thinking of the ugly face of the eldest son before leaving, she couldn't help but secretly sighed.

The rest of the companions who came with him were sent back, and only he and the little book boy who followed the second son remained.

Friends all envied him for being with a good-tempered young master, but Liu Ruohan knew very well in her heart that the gentle-looking eldest young master was actually even colder.

No, he just took the things sent by his wife back to the study, and was thrown out again, saying that he didn't need to serve here.

If she really doesn't need her own service, then Mrs. Shi doesn't need to choose any book boy, and just let the servants come.In the final analysis, Mr. Shi still dislikes him for being clumsy and clumsy, and he doesn't know how to serve others.

Liu Ruohan was a little unhappy, walking in the yard alone.

Then, he heard a soft voice, which sounded very familiar, like the book boy next to the second young master he saw this morning.

Liu Ruohan looked forward and saw that the housekeeper Zhang who brought them into the mansion was talking with the second son's book boy. The originally strict little old man softened his face in front of Xi Xin, and seemed to be in a very good mood.

Xi Xin was originally staying in the room, and then saw that everyone had something to do, he wanted to go to help, but was stopped, those people quickly shook their heads, saying that they just do what they need to do here, and let Xi Xin rest by the side .

He would occasionally help his parents with things at home, and when he was bored, he would pick up a book and read it. It was a book from the private school, and it was a bit worn out due to frequent reading, but Xi Xin still read it with gusto. .

But when he came here, he didn't have to work, and he didn't have any books to read, and the second son Shi Chen didn't know what to do, so he wasn't in the courtyard for the time being.

Seeing that they were all busy, Xi Xin felt sorry, so she asked, "Is there anything I can do?"

Shi Chen's servant glanced at him, his eyes were a little strange, and then he thought of the way the young master protected him just now, as if he was protecting his eyeballs. How could he dare to let him do things, so he had to say: "The butler hasn't assigned anything for the time being. You, if you are bored, go outside for a walk. The places that cannot be entered are guarded by guards, and if you see outsiders stepping here, you will be notified in advance, so you don’t have to worry about other problems.”

So Xi Xin came out, who knows that before he left for a long time, he saw the steward Zhang who brought him into the mansion.

The steward seemed to be looking for Xi Xin on purpose, and the direction of walking was also Shi Chen's room. Seeing that Xi Xin was just coming out, he smiled and walked over, saying: "Coincidentally."

"Hello, Grandpa Zhang." Xi Xin called softly. He still remembered the old man's advice in the morning, so he still called him that when he met.

Looking at his well-behaved appearance, the housekeeper looked at him lovingly. This child was about the same age as his grandson, so he was attractive just by looking at him.

"Do you have anything to do with me?" Xi Xin just heard him say "coincidentally", and knew that he came here this time to find her.

"Someone asked the janitor to bring a can of something, and I'll give it to you." Xi Xin noticed that the housekeeper had been carrying something in his hand. Seeing the familiar packaging, he suddenly felt a kind of Very cordial feeling.

"This is, Tang." Xi Xin's eyes are bright, like a little sun, emitting a soft light, especially when he looks at others in surprise, it will make people smile from the bottom of their hearts.

Xi Xin took over the sugar bowl. Although she was very happy, she still did not forget to thank the housekeeper.

"Thank you, Grandpa Zhang." Holding the sugar bowl in his hand, he smiled sweetly at Butler Zhang, his eyes were crooked like the bright moon in the sky.

The steward smiled, and then thought that this sensible child followed, but it happened to be the second young master who was the most worry-free in the mansion. He sighed in his heart, but he didn't want to talk too much about the master's affairs, so he could only say a few words : "Second young master has a different temperament, if you have something to do, just keep silent, but don't be too passive, listen to the opinions of other people in the courtyard, and follow them to do what they do, you know?"

Although Xi Xin didn't understand what he meant, she still nodded obediently, "I will."

"Have you had lunch?" The eldest young master has been busy for a long time, and the servants stopped at this time, and have time to have lunch, and the second young master has never needed him to take care of it, so the housekeeper didn't know Shi Chen What's going on in the courtyard.

"I've eaten." Xi Xin replied softly.

Lunch was served in Shi Chen's room, as soon as the food was set, Shi Chen ordered his servants to go out, leaving Xi Xin alone, and then let him eat with him.

Xi Xin didn't eat much, because Shi Chen kept staring at him while eating, but the things in his bowl didn't move at all. He was a little embarrassed to be seen, and only thought that Second Young Master Shi disliked him for being too capable. After eating, I didn't dare to move my chopsticks, and only picked up a few dishes in front of the chopsticks.

Shi Chen looked at the dishes on the table for a long time, but secretly remembered which dishes Xi Xin added more, and ordered the small kitchen to make more next time, but never thought that the reason why Xi Xin added those dishes was because they He was the closest to him, and he was too embarrassed to move his chopsticks if he was too far away.

Seeing that he was frowning, as if he was thinking about something complicated, the butler felt amused in his heart, but just looked at the time, it was getting late, and he couldn't talk to Xi Xin any more, so he said, "I still have something to do, you Don't stay outside too long, lest the second young master get angry when he comes back."

"Well, I'll go back to the courtyard later." Xi Xin nodded seriously.

Butler Zhang left, and when he returned, he happened to pass by Liu Ruohan, he paused slightly, and sized up this familiar-looking young man.

Liu Ruohan immediately stood at attention, and her waist couldn't help but straighten.

But the housekeeper just glanced at him lightly, didn't say anything, nodded, and left.

Liu Ruohan breathed a sigh of relief and patted her chest.

This old man looks so fierce, it's frightening to death.

Liu Ruohan looked forward and found that Xi Xin seemed to be leaving, so she hurriedly shouted: "Wait, wait a minute."

Xi Xin turned her head, and a young man who looked a bit unfamiliar came over and said to him with a blushing face, "My name is Liu Ruohan, do you remember? We met this morning!"

Xi Xin nodded, and said softly: "Remember, you were beside me at that time."

Seeing that he recognized her, Liu Ruohan relaxed a little. He who was a little timid towards outsiders before, breathed a sigh of relief in front of his peer Xi Xin, and his tone became more familiar.

"I know you. Your name is Xi Xin. I'm from the next village. I saw you delivering meals to your parents before."

"Hello, Liu Ruohan." Xi Xin called out softly, her voice soft and glutinous, like sweet candy.

Seeing him greet her so earnestly, Liu Ruohan blushed a little, and stammered, "You, you are fine, Xi Xin."

Xi Xin glanced at the sugar bowl in her hand, shook her head and smiled, "I can't talk to you anymore, I have to go back."

"Goodbye." Liu Ruohan said disappointedly.

He left so quickly, he hasn't talked to Xi Xin much yet.

But after saying goodbye, Xi Xin still hadn't left. He stretched out his hand and struggled to unscrew the sugar bowl in his arms. Because of too much force, his face was also flushed.

Liu Ruohan looked at him puzzled, wondering if she should help.

The sugar jar was finally opened, Xi Xin smiled happily, then skillfully took out a candy from inside, and handed it to Liu Ruohan.

"Here you are, my mother brought this here." His eyes slightly curved.

Although the gatekeeper didn't say who brought it over, seeing that the sugar bowl was the kind he always liked, Xi Xin knew that it must have been brought over by his parents.

Seeing him accepting the candy, Xi Xin just walked away.

Liu Ruohan looked at the sweet-scented osmanthus-flavored candy in her hand, and suddenly said to Xi Xin in front of her, "Do you like sweets very much?"

Fearing that Xi Xin, who was walking far away, would not hear her, Liu Ruohan deliberately raised her voice.

Xi Xin's figure paused, glanced back, and replied loudly, "Yes! Don't you think it's sweet?"

He smiled softly, then waved his hands, and walked in the direction he came and went.

Liu Ruohan opened the candy, carefully put the candy wrapper away, put the candy in her mouth, and then smiled.

"It's sweet." He whispered.

But, not as sweet as you.

When returning to the yard, Xi Xin found that the atmosphere in the house seemed not quite right.

Everyone seemed to have done something wrong, their heads were lowered, and they didn't dare to take a breath. Someone noticed Xi Xin outside the door, and quickly gave him a wink, signaling him to come in quickly. Then, He quickly lowered his head and pretended nothing happened.

Xi Xin was a little confused, but walked in obediently.

The temperature inside the house seemed to be much lower, and it felt like living in a cold winter.

Hearing the sound of gentle footsteps, Shi Chen who was sitting at the desk raised his head, looked at Xi Xin quietly, but did not speak.

Then, when he saw the sugar bowl in his hand, he frowned first, then glanced at the things next to him, and swept it aside casually.

Xi Xin noticed that the things he swept away were very similar to the sugar bowl she was holding.

"I just went out for a while, and I didn't wander around." Xi Xin said softly.

Seeing him explain so earnestly, Shi Chen, who was still angry at first, suddenly lost his temper, even though he wasn't sullen because of him running around.

Shi Chen's face softened slightly.

Seeing that the Second Young Master finally had another reaction, the people in the room were relieved.

Shi Chen still didn't speak, Xi Xin saw something on the table, somehow, suddenly understood, and asked first: "Is that sugar?"

Seeing that he finally mentioned the sugar bowl, Shi Chen's pursed lips slightly loosened, but he pretended to be casual and said: "Well, I happened to see it on the way back, so I bought it."

This is so easy... This kind of candy with simple ingredients is not sold on the street at all. The second young master took them around several times before finally finding this box of sugar jars in a very remote store.The boy who followed Shi Chen out thought hopelessly.

He figured it out, so the young master went out for so long just to buy a box of candy.

Shi Chen pushed the candy forward and said, "You give me one, and I'll return you a box."

The amber eyes brightened instantly, Xi Xin thought she was very happy, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised.

He took the candy, put the two boxes together, and held them in his arms.

The little broken hair on the forehead was raised mischievously, looking cute and ignorant.

"Here is one." Xi Xin rummaged through the sugar bowl for a long time before finally picking out a candy and placing it in front of Shi Chen.

Then, she looked at him expectantly.

Shi Chen was taken aback for a moment, then as if he had figured out something, he suddenly laughed.

"Okay, I'll give it to you, I'll give it to you." He looked at Xi Xin seriously as if he had promised, and agreed.

"It's all yours."

The slightly raised tone shows the protagonist's good mood.

The author has something to say:

Many years later, Shi Chen took over the candy store he bought back then, and took Xi Xin to see it with great interest.

Shi Chen: Look, Xin Xin!This is the country I laid down for you!
