After carrying the young master around for a while, the young master wanted to get off, and he was a little worried that Han Xiao would be tired.
Han Xiao put the young master down. Seeing how happy he was, Han Xiao thought it would be okay to let him go for a swim in the lake.
The two were talking sweetly when suddenly the young master cried out and fell backwards uncontrollably.
When Han Xiao heard this, he immediately hugged the young master in his arms and looked at the uninvited guest in front of him.
Chen Jiabao had a fake smile on his face: "Oh, I'm sorry I didn't pay attention just now and bumped into Master Ruan. Is Master Ruan okay?"
Han Xiao checked the young master and asked him if he was injured. The young master shook his head. Fortunately, Han Xiao was smart, otherwise he would have fallen down. He still felt a little scared when he thought about it. There were so many people on the street, and if he fell down, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Han Xiao suppressed the anger in his heart and looked at the uninvited guest in front of him: "If you have poor eyesight, don't come out to harm others."
"You..." Chen Jiabao wanted to step forward and take action, but was stopped by Han Mingxiu behind him.
"Jiabao, stop it. You didn't see clearly and bumped into Young Master Ruan just now. Why don't you apologize to Young Master Ruan quickly?" Han Mingxiu held Chen Jiabao and said softly.
Chen Jiabao was not very happy. He snorted and turned his head away to ignore him.
"Nephew Han Xiao, long time no see? Jiabao was wrong just now. I'd like to apologize on his behalf. Is Master Ruan okay?" Han Mingxiu looked at Han Xiao and the others with a smile on his face.
The young master looked at Han Mingxiu and hid behind Han Xiao in fear, pretending that he didn't exist.
Han Xiao always felt that Han Mingxiu's smile was malicious, and that he might have had some intention when they met today. Han Xiao still said, "Long time no see, second uncle."
You still have to give them face on the surface.
Han Mingxiu looked at the young master behind Han Xiao, and a trace of unwillingness flashed in his eyes, but it quickly disappeared. However, it was still caught by Han Xiao who was always vigilant.
"The Ruan family and our Han family have had an engagement since childhood. It seems that it has been settled now. Why didn't anyone notify me?" Han Mingxiu said to Han Xiao.
Han Xiao narrowed his eyes and replied with a forced smile, "Second uncle, you're joking. Second uncle has passed the imperial examination and is very busy now. How can you bother him with your nephew's affairs? But it seems that good things are coming to him soon."
After saying that, he glanced at Chen Jiabao who was following behind Han Mingxiu. It was Chen Jiabao who deliberately bumped into the young master just now. Thinking of this, Han Xiao felt a little annoyed and blamed himself for not protecting the young master well.
Han Mingxiu didn't care about what Han Xiao said. He took Chen Jiabao's hand and nodded: "Well, thanks to the Chen family's love and respect, and Jiabao and I are in love, so we just decided and haven't had time to inform my eldest brother yet."
Chen Jiabao looked at the handsome Han Mingxiu with shyness in her eyes. It seemed that Han Mingxiu had deceived her true heart. Han Xiao didn't believe that Han Mingxiu could be in love with anyone.
Han Xiao chuckled immediately, "Then I wish Second Uncle and Young Master Chen a happy marriage and a son soon. I won't disturb Second Uncle and Second Aunt anymore. Goodbye!"
After saying that, he took the young master's hand and wanted to leave. Han Xiao really didn't want to be disturbed by certain people during the date.
"Okay, then I won't bother you. But your grandma, Han Xiao, still hopes that you can go back and visit her. Please go back when you have time." Han Mingxiu did not stop her.
"It depends. I'm very busy recently and will go back when I have time." Han Xiao answered perfunctorily. Although the two families separated, if Han Xiao got married, it would be a big deal and he would inevitably go back to Hanjia Village.
Seeing that Han Xiao agreed, Han Mingxiu didn't say anything more. Han Xiao took the young master's hand and continued to walk forward.
Seeing Han Xiao and the other man walking away, Chen Jiabao couldn't help but stamp his feet any longer: "Brother Han, why do you want me to apologize to that little bitch Ruan Zhu?"
Han Mingxiu stroked Chen Jiabao's head and said, "You were wrong to bump into them just now. We still need to maintain the relationship between the Chen and Ruan families. It's not time to break up yet. I know Jiabao felt wronged today. I'll apologize to you, okay?"
Chen Jiabao gradually lost himself in Han Mingxiu's deep voice, and said with a coaxing face, "Okay, anyway, I just don't like that Ruan Zhu, and your nephew always has bad luck when he meets them."
As Han Mingxiu listened, his expression became more and more gentle, and he kept coaxing Chen Jiabao. Chen Jiabao was so happy that she no longer thought about Han Xiao and the others.
However, Han Mingxiu and Chen Jiabao followed Han Xiao closely.
After this episode, the young master felt a little depressed.
"Ruanruan, look! There's a lantern riddle game up ahead. Do you want to go and take a look?"
"Guess riddles?" The young master became angry.
"Well, it's just ahead. Let's go check it out."
When I walked to the front of the stage, there were already a lot of people gathered in front of me, including many scholars, who were scratching their heads and looking at the riddles in front of them.
I learned from others that this lantern riddle competition was actually organized by the mayor. The person who won the first place would not only get 100 taels of silver, but also become a lantern king.
As expected, he looked in the direction pointed by the passerby and saw a very delicate and beautiful lantern placed on a high platform. The young master stared at the lantern with wide eyes: "Brother Han Xiao, that lantern is so beautiful."
Seeing that the young master's mood had improved, Han Xiao asked, "Does Ruanruan like it? If so, I'll go and win it back for you."
Someone nearby heard Han Xiao's boast and said, "Young people are so arrogant. Have you seen these scholars above? Which one of them is not arrogant? It's still hard to guess."
The young master was also a little worried. He knew that Brother Han Xiao had not read many books, so he said, "It's okay, Brother Han Xiao. I don't like it very much either. We can just take a look at it."
