The sound of the mother and son talking was heard by several people around. The eldest son was in a trance, and the third son had a look of despair on his face.
Zhao Yingyi didn't know what he was saying to Xia Lingxuan.
Of course Xiangyun also saw Xia Hongwei. Seeing him sitting next to the princess, she knew that he must be the son of the prince's mansion.
It was not until the emperor brought everyone in the palace to toast that many people who had never seen Xia Hongwei realized that he was the young captain.
Everyone felt that with this demeanor and appearance, he would definitely become a young general in the future.
Xiangyun felt the lady's gaze, and beside her was the nanny clutching her chest. But the look had changed from hatred to inquiry.
Xiangyun knew that if one looked into it in detail, it would have started from the time Xia Hongwei came out.
Praising the powerful and looking down on the weak is her usual tactic.
Xiangyun was tired of watching it. To be honest, she had to thank Xia Hongwei, otherwise she didn't know what she would say to her father when she returned.
After the banquet, all the prominent families in Jinyang City became active.
You should know that there are three young men in the prince's mansion who are eligible for marriage, although none of them are born to the prince and princess.
But over the years, it has been seen that the two have put great care into the cultivation of their children.
Therefore, all the nobles considered the palace as their first choice, but they found that the door of the palace was not easy to enter.
Moreover, the eldest son seems to be very close to Zhao Yingying, so the only option is to get close to the second son.
Who knew that the second young master was even more difficult to deal with. When he got angry, he would climb trees and rooftops, and sometimes even beat people.
That day, Xia Hongwei climbed up a big tree nearby to avoid people. She looked at the servants and young ladies circling below and sneered.
"Oh, life is so boring nowadays. I might as well go to war."
Xia Hongwei lay on the tree trunk, talking to himself.
Ever since returning to Jinyang City, Zhao Yingyi no longer followed him and followed his sister instead. He didn't understand why Zhao Yingyi was either poisoned or sick every day and always smiled foolishly.
Whenever he wanted to go out for a walk alone, there would always be different people following him.
Her mother said that she couldn't hit people, as they were all noble ladies.
He snorted and laughed. "A noble lady?" She only knew how to follow people.
After the people below had gone far away, he sat on a tree and looked at the clouds in the sky.
"Mammy, please don't go too far. Why can't my young lady ask for some sweet soup?"
The sudden sound woke up Xia Hongwei who had just fallen asleep. He looked up and saw that there was a small courtyard under the tree.
Looking closely, it turned out to be the nanny who was beaten by him. Wasn’t that the maid named Xiangyun?
Oddly enough, Xiangyun was the only one of those noble ladies whom he had not seen since that day. However, his eldest daughter had been to his house several times.
"We're out of sugar water. We have to wait a little longer. Miss doesn't have any either. I don't know what you're all fussing about."
The maid was angry after hearing this, but she still wanted to fight for it.
"Stop arguing. I'm not drinking. But why did you let them clean my house?"
Xia Hongwei looked carefully and saw that the person coming out of the room was none other than Xiangyun.
She was wearing a light blue dress, her face looked a little pale, and her voice was not as strong as that of the old woman.
"Replying to the Second Miss, this is the Madam's order..."
"Madam's instructions? Does the master know? Don't worry about my room. I will explain it when the master comes back."
…
There was more noise in the yard for a while. Xia Hongwei could not hear Xiangyun clearly. He just watched her face getting paler and paler, and the face of the nanny opposite was getting darker and darker.
Finally, the nanny left, and Xia Hongwei chose to sneak into the yard.
His mother said that the reputation of the young ladies should not be ruined.
But he can always do it quietly.
"who?"
A man climbed in through the window. Who else could it be but Xia Hongwei?
Xiangyun took a closer look and breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out to be Xia Hongwei.
"I... I was passing by here and heard you were being bullied, so I came in to see... Here you are..."
It was only after Xia Hongwei came in that he saw Xiangyun, who was wearing underwear and had disheveled hair. Coupled with her pale face, the beauty made Xia Hongwei a little dazed.
He quickly put the things on the table and then ran away.
Xiangyun put down the hairpin in her hand, and at this time the maid ran in.
"Miss, this is brown sugar."
Xiangyun smiled with relief and told the maid not to tell anyone.
From then on, a bag of something would appear in the yard every two days, all of which were brown sugar.
One morning, Xia Hongwei stuck his head out and was about to throw something away, but was discovered by Xiangyun.
Xiangyun waited there specifically to see Xia Hongwei.
Few people came to her yard, and usually there were only her and her maid.
One of them was lying on the wall, while the other was standing at the foot of the wall, and they started talking.
"Mr. Xia, please don't send me gifts anymore."
"What's wrong? You don't like brown sugar?"
Xiangyun blushed after hearing this. She couldn't tell him that she needed brown sugar because she had her period, right?
Xia Hongwei looked at Xiangyun who was keeping her head down and not saying anything, and realized that he might have said something wrong, so he changed the subject.
"Did they bully you again?"
Xiangyun smiled and shook her head, "Master Xia, don't worry about me anymore. I will be alive."
Xia Hongwei looked at Xiangyun's smile and felt a little sad for a moment. He didn't understand why such a good girl would be bullied.
And he comes here almost every day. What she said about not being bullied is impossible, but she is very strong and never cries.
Originally, to Xiangyun, Xia Hongwei was just a passer-by, but this man was chivalrous and always wanted to save her from danger, so she wanted to make things clear with him.
