"I don't have the final say on this matter. I need to go back and discuss it with my family. So, is it okay for me to go back to Brother Su at the poetry gathering tomorrow?"
Xiao Hechuan cannot be the head of the family on his own, so he needs to go back and say hello to them.
This is as it should be. Even if Su Yanqing wants to see Xiao Lanlan, he can't be impatient and can only wait patiently.
"Okay, let's talk about it tomorrow. I have something else to do today, so I'll leave you alone. You can do whatever you want, Hechuan."
He was also in a hurry to go to the Xie family's boat, and seeing that the agreed time was almost past, it was inconvenient for him to chat with Xiao Hechuan anymore.
Xiao Hechuan watched Su Yanqing's carriage leave. He looked at his carriage, not knowing what he was thinking in his heart, with a frown on his face.
After a moment, he turned around and continued walking towards home.
He was just thinking that Su Yanqing was an excellent person no matter how you looked at him. He was talented, easy-going, and good-looking. It was understandable that Lanlan liked him.
But, is he a good match for Lanlan?
When Su Yanqing arrived at the Xie family's boat, it was already crowded with people. Many people gathered around Mr. Qi's desk, watching and some were copying the poem left by Xiao Hechuan.
Because his poem is so great both in appearance and taste, some calligraphy enthusiasts have begun to study his handwriting and want to copy it, but they cannot learn even a fraction of his charm.
When Mr. Qi saw Su Yanqing coming, he quickly poked his head out of the crowd and greeted him:
"Second Master Su, you came at the right time. I just received a great poem and would like to invite you to enjoy it!"
As soon as Su Yanqing arrived, everyone lowered their voices and turned to look at him. This master was also a rare talent, and he also had a powerful family background. They didn't dare to act rashly in front of him.
"Really? Let me see!"
Su Yanqing had a vague feeling that this should be the work of Hechuan.
When the poem came into his hands, Su Yanqing knew it was indeed written by him when he saw the unique handwriting. Then he read the whole poem with surprise in his eyes.
I didn't expect that Hechuan actually had such talent. He had said before that he had barely passed. He was really too modest.
It seems that tomorrow's poetry reading will be quite interesting.
…
When Xiao Hechuan returned home, Jiang Sui was discussing with Xiao's mother where to go to recycle a large amount of sweet potatoes and potatoes. A lot of things had to be prepared so that they could choose a date to open the business after the New Year.
It is winter now, there is little sunshine and the air is humid. It takes some time to dry the sweet potato starch, so we have to prepare early.
Xiao Hechuan told them that Su Yanqing's grandfather had invited them to visit and asked for everyone's opinions.
Father Xiao's first reaction was that they were so shabby, and Mr. Su was such a highly respected person that it was already extremely difficult for ordinary people to meet him. But he wanted to invite them to be guests of honor, which really made them feel terrified.
"Hechuan, it was you, Suisui, and Lanlan who rescued the second young master Su. His parents are rough people, and they don't know the rules if they go to a wealthy family. You are a scholar, and Suisui and Lanlan are both steady. Why don't you three go?"
"Yes, there are so many people in our family. If we all go, it would be so inappropriate. It is better for the three of you to go." This time, Xiao's mother and Xiao's father agreed.
Xiao Qin wanted to find a suitable private school in the city for Yuan Ge'er, but he said he was too busy. Xiao Mian had to take care of Zhou, who had just become pregnant, so he also said he had no time.
Needless to say, Xiao Yi doesn't like this kind of occasion because there are too many restrictions and rules.
In this way, only Xiao Hechuan, Jiang Sui and Lanlan were left.
When Xiao Lanlan heard that she might have to meet Su Yanqing, she suddenly felt the discomfort in her heart rising again, and immediately said that she would not go:
"Fourth brother, I won't go either. I haven't been feeling well lately. You and Fourth Sister-in-law can go."
There was a hint of anger in her words, and Xiao Hechuan could tell that the two of them were indeed having a conflict.
"Don't rush to refuse. We are not going there right away. Think it over first. I am just saying hello to you in advance. You still have a chance to regret it now."
When Xiao Hechuan was reborn, he only wished that his sister could get what she wanted and live a happy life. He would do his best to help her get anyone or anything she wanted.
After hearing what Fourth Brother said, Xiao Lanlan felt a little guilty, so she simply turned around and hid in her room.
Jiang Sui saw that Xiao Hechuan must have known something, so he said that. Could it be that Su Yanqing told him?
But what she cares most about now is whether Xiao Hechuan has got the ticket to the poetry reading.
She pulled Xiao Hechuan into the room and asked him.
Xiao Hechuan took out his nanmu card and showed it to Jiang Sui, and told her that the status represented by this nanmu card would allow her to sit in the best seat on the boat and compete in poetry.
Jiang Sui knew that Xiao Hechuan was a typical example of someone who would make a big splash if he remained silent!
Because she was so excited, she hugged him happily and put her arms around his waist:
"Tsurukawa, you're amazing, I knew you were the best!"
There is no denying that Jiang Sui is a little scheming. Ever since she had that passionate kiss with Xiao Hechuan, she couldn't control her desire to get close to him.
Girls are all like this. When facing someone they like, they all want to stick with him, especially when they know that the other person is also interested in them.
When Xiao Hechuan was hugged by her like this, he was stunned for two seconds at first, then he smiled after listening to her flattering words and reached out to hug her back.
After getting the response, the little deer in Jiang Sui's heart ran around happily.
"Aren't you afraid that I will return empty-handed tomorrow?" Xiao Hechuan suddenly said this.
"Don't be afraid, you won't return empty-handed, I believe in you!" Jiang Sui answered without any hesitation.
Please, you will be the Prime Minister in the future, how could you not be able to handle a small poetry meeting?
She also maximized Xiao Hechuan's emotional value, and Xiao Hechuan benefited greatly from it:
"In this case, I will never let you down, my lady!"
He still doesn't know what the prize for the Xie family poetry gathering tomorrow is, but as long as he wins this gathering, Baiyun Academy won't have to worry about the tuition.
The two continued to hug each other, and it seemed that neither of them wanted to stop.
The cold wind was howling outside, and the house was warm with a fire burning. The years were peaceful and quiet.
After a long while, Jiang Sui finally let go of her arms around his waist. She looked up at him:
"Okay, you read the book. I'm going to help mom with her work."
It’s time to prepare lunch again.
She turned to leave, but Xiao Hechuan grabbed her wrist and brought her back.
Jiang Sui looked at him in confusion, only to see him lower his head and move closer to him. He felt an icy touch on his forehead, and Jiang Sui felt like he was electrocuted.
He placed a kiss on her forehead, which felt tingling.
"Thanks a lot……"
This family, thanks to her, can have the peace and stability it has today. His words of "thank you for your hard work" contain so much.
