Chapter 68 [My brother’s hands are beautiful and useful! 】
The girl called out sweetly, and Xie Qiao suddenly felt something strange in his heart.
Deep down in his heart, he couldn't help but wonder, what would happen if Song Jin called him brother?
He never thought he would hear Song Jin call him like that.
Xie Qiao said inexplicably: "Ah Jin, if you think sworn brother is too formal, you can also call me brother."
elder brother?
Song Jin was stunned.
The two words circled on the tip of her tongue and she couldn't even say them out loud.
And she has a brother.
"It's okay," Song Jin said seriously, "Just call me brother."
Xie Qiao felt a little disappointed.
He didn't show any emotion, just said, "Okay."
Song Jin looked at Xie Qiao in front of him and suddenly realized that the distance between them was a little close.
Song Jin stood up, grabbing his small backpack and said, "I'll go back and pack my things first. Come back when I'm done."
Having said that, Song Jin stood up and was about to leave.
Just as the hem of her skirt brushed the tip of Xie Qiao's shoe, Xie Qiao grabbed Song Jin's wrist.
Song Jin: "Hmm?"
She looked down at the bony hand.
She was very familiar with this hand.
This hand is slender and slightly cool, but flexible and powerful, which makes her very happy every time.
Song Jin kept sighing in his heart.
[Hey!] 】
[My brother’s hands are so beautiful and useful! 】
Xie Qiao listened to the dirty words in the girl's mind, wondering what this girl was thinking in broad daylight!
But the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.
"The mansion has everything you need for food, clothing and daily necessities. If you want to take anything, ask the people below to get it for you." Xie Qiao explained, "You just came out of Prince Qi's mansion today, and you haven't returned yet. Maybe Prince Qi has sent someone to wait in Lingjiaofang. You should be safe in Xie's mansion, but if you are kidnapped by him..."
"Okay, I'll listen to my brother and not go back yet!" Song Jin stood there obediently and well.
She felt that Xie Qiao was not trying to scare anyone, and that the King of Qi might send people to capture her!
The girl stood there, and Xie Qiao nodded with satisfaction.
He let go of Song Jin's wrist, stood up and stood beside her: "It's late, let's serve the meal first, and I'll take you to your yard after dinner."
Song Jin didn't expect: "I still have a yard?"
"Yes." Xie Qiao walked to the door, opened it, and said to Fu Cang who was guarding outside, "Pass the food."
Fu Cang was a little excited: "Yes!"
He clenched his fists, as happy as if he was going to get married.
When he first saw the lady at the door, he was a little worried that she was here to part ways with the young master!
But now!
Not only did the lady not quarrel with the young master, she also did not part ways with him and even wanted to live in the mansion!
He was so happy for the young master!
Fu Cang quickly served the meal and said deliberately, "Sir, we have guests today. Please add a few more dishes. Make sure they are sweet. My lady likes them!"
The chefs in the kitchen are all elderly people who have worked in the Xie Mansion for many years.
They had never heard of a female guest coming to the eldest master's yard, and everyone was curious.
They knew Fu Cang was tight-lipped, so they just said, "Yes, let the Patriarch rest assured, we will make it and send it to the eldest master right away!"
Fu Cang nodded and walked back quickly.
He also wanted to hear what the young master and the lady said!
In Mo'an Residence, Song Jin was taken by Xie Qiao to the side hall of Mo'an Residence, where Xie Qiao used to have his meals.
Song Jin had only been in Xie's house for a short time but she had already visited several places. This Mo An Ju looked bigger than her entire shop.
Song Jin sat in the side hall, carefully observing the furnishings there.
Xie Qiao raised his hand and poured a cup of tea for Song Jin: "If you are hungry, have some snacks first. I usually drink plain tea. If you don't like it, ask them to change it to sweet fruit tea tomorrow."
Song Jin thought it was too much trouble, so she said politely, "No need, no need. I can drink anything."
Song Jin said as he saw the cakes on the table.
"Hey?" Song Jin felt familiar. "Is this the style of pastry that you drew for me in Chunliu Lane before?"
Xie Qiao nodded: "That's about right. I drew it based on my impression, so there should be some differences. However, the Xie family's pastries don't have any new styles. These styles have been around for many years."
Xie Qiao added: "Maybe I don't eat these things often. My mother and second brother should have some fashionable ones in their yards."
Song Jin nodded.
[Yes, yes, since you are so wooden, the pastries will naturally be wooden too! 】
[You don’t like to eat anyway.] 】
Song Jin only muttered these words in her heart. She didn't dare to say them to his face. She just said, "They are all the same. I have been studying the cakes in Kyoto recently and found that those cakes only changed their appearance. There is no difference inside. You don't care about the style. They are all the same."
Xie Qiao pretended not to hear the girl's inner complaints.
He smiled and nodded.
Soon, the dishes were brought up from the kitchen.
The waiters who served the dishes came up quietly and made no sound even when they put the plates down.
In the blink of an eye, the table was filled with dishes.
Song Jin opened his eyes wide.
The food at Xie Mansion is so good, it feels even better than the banquet at Lin Mansion!
Xie Qiao took a glance.
In addition to a few dishes he usually eats, there are also some sweet and soft dishes, which must have been specially instructed by Fu Cang.
Xie Qiao wiped his hands with a wet towel: "Ajin, there are only two of us here, you don't have to be restrained, just use it as you like."
Song Jin nodded. She was really a little hungry. "Yeah, then I won't be polite!"
Song Jin said this, picked up the chopsticks and ate bite by bite politely.
Then she suddenly remembered something: "Brother, don't you not eat after noon?"
Xie Qiao whispered, "I haven't been feeling well since returning from Chongzhou injured. The doctor said I should eat more."
"Is that so..." Song Jin frowned, a little worried. It seemed that Xie Qiao's injury was more serious than she thought: "So what are you doing now..."
"It's okay, don't worry, Ajin." Xie Qiao put down his chopsticks and said seriously, "And Ajin, don't you know it?"
Song Jin paused with his chopsticks.
Um?
Hmmmm? ? ?
Song Jin almost choked.
He he he!
What is he talking about!
That should be what he was talking about!
But now is the time to talk about that!
However, Song Jin really knew whether he was in good health or not.
She couldn't lie either, so she could only nod and say, "Yeah, my brother is in good health."
Xie Qiao listened to the girl's serious answer and smiled again.
Looking at the girl pretending to be nothing while stuffing food into her mouth, her cheeks puffed up slowly, he thought it was very cute.
Even the food that I could only eat a few bites of in the past now seems very delicious.
Song Jin sat in Xie's house, with the words "don't talk while eating and don't talk while sleeping" hanging over her head.
She didn't dare to speak, she just ate quickly and finished in a short while.
Xie Qiao also put down his chopsticks.
He stood up: "Come on, I'll take you to your yard."
Song Jin followed Xie Qiao and walked out of Mo An Ju and towards the back. After walking around a small pond, they arrived at an elegant courtyard.
Xie Qiao stopped in front of the courtyard and said, "Ajin, this is Yuechuan Pavilion. It's the courtyard you're going to live in from now on."
Song Jin originally thought that she could just arrange a small guest room for her, but she didn't expect it to be such a big place.
Song Jin was very embarrassed.
"No, no thanks. I only need a small room. I can't live in such a big one!" Song Jin stood at the door and didn't go in.
Xie Qiao comforted her, "It's okay, Que'er has been waiting for you here, you can see her when you go in."
"Que'er?! Que'er is here!" Song Jin suddenly became happy!
The girl looked very excited, with smiles in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows!
It would be great if there was someone she knew in such a big mansion!
Xie Qiao looked at the gloom in Song Jin's eyes and brows when he walked in, and he also felt much more relaxed.
Then, Que'er came out of Yuechuan Pavilion.
With her was a festive little girl.
“Sister Xiaojin!” Que’er came over. She was originally full of excitement, but once she saw Xie Qiao, she calmed down a lot and bowed to Xie Qiao: “Master.”
The little girl behind said the same thing: "Meet the eldest master."
Xie Qiao nodded slightly, and then said to Song Jin: "You know Que'er. This is the maid assigned to you by the mansion. If you have any business in the mansion in the future, you can ask her to do it."
The little girl stepped forward and said, "Your servant Xiao Luo greets the young lady."
Song Jin said repeatedly: "No need, no need, just call me Sister Xiaojin."
Song Jin turned to Xie Qiao and said, "Brother, there's no need to trouble me. I can take care of myself. There's no need to trouble Xiao Luo..."
Seeing Xie Qiao, he remained silent.
Xiao Luo quickly said, "Miss, you don't have to be polite. I grew up in the mansion and am very familiar with it. It would be nice if I could show you the way in the past."
Xie Qiao nodded: "She's right, the Xie Mansion is not small, you might get lost if you go in and out alone."
Song Jin looked at Que'er and found that Que'er had no objection.
Que'er had been in the mansion for nearly a year and had a good relationship with the maids. She was also somewhat familiar with Xiao Luo.
Song Jin nodded: "Okay then."
"Well, you guys can pack up first. If you have anything in the shop that you want to bring back, tell Xiao Luo and she will send someone to get it." Xie Qiao whispered to comfort him, "King Qi, then you don't have to worry. I will take care of this matter."
Song Jin bowed to Xie Qiao and said, "Thank you for your help, brother."
Xie Qiao nodded, turned and left.
The three girls watched Xie Qiao's back until he could no longer be seen. Then Que'er asked excitedly, "Sister Xiaojin, why are you here? I couldn't believe it when Fu Cang came to tell me just now. Didn't you say that I would go out and open a shop with you? How come you came to Xie's house before I even left?!"
"And..." Que'er wanted to ask something else.
Song Jin didn't know how to explain for a moment, so he could only say, "Let's go in first, and I'll tell you slowly."
Que'er followed Song Jin back to Yuechuan Pavilion.
As soon as he entered the door, Song Jin was surprised by the furnishings in the courtyard.
This yard is her favorite!
She had seen it countless times in the storybooks, and she even marked it with a pen!
I saw that the entire courtyard of Yuechuan Pavilion was covered with moon-colored gauze curtains, which shone with a hint of silver light under the moonlight.
She had seen it in a fabric shop but hadn't been willing to buy it!
Walking inside, I saw that the house of Yuechuan Pavilion was not big, but there was a small two-story attic next to it, named Yuechuan.
At this time, a breeze blew, blowing up the gauze in the attic.
Flying outside the window.
Que'er didn't know what Song Jin was thinking. She was already used to the furnishings in Yuechuan Pavilion, and she wanted to know something else!
Xiao Luo was very smart and sensible. Seeing that Que'er and Song Jin seemed to have something to say, she said, "Miss, please take a rest for a while. I will prepare hot water for you so that you can wash up later."
Song Jin said politely: "Thank you for your help then."
Xiao Luo smiled and turned away. Que'er then stepped forward and asked in a low voice, "Sister Xiao Jin, why do you call me Jiazhixiong?"
They are obviously husband and wife!
Song Jin was speechless for a moment.
She felt that this matter was a bit long to explain, so she explained concisely: "Because I got into some trouble outside, I can only stay at Xie's house temporarily. My previous engagement with Xie Qiao was an accident. The marriage my brother arranged for me was not with him, so Xie Qiao recognized me as his sister. This way, he could help me solve the problem and repay my brother's kindness."
Que'er was a little confused: "But, you and the master of the family got married before, and he even remained faithful to you..."
"That doesn't matter. He said no one would know. From now on, I will only have one identity in the mansion, that is, Xie Qiao's adopted sister."
certainly……
The matters recorded in that book of time will be dealt with separately.
That was the previous account.
Que'er was still a little confused and she couldn't understand what was going on.
Song Jin briefly explained it again.
Her current relationship with Xie Qiao seems a bit strange.
But there was one thing she was very sure of.
She said seriously: "Anyway, Que'er, Xie Qiao and I have a very, very pure relationship."
She nodded and confirmed again: "Yes, that's it!"
