The young master that Han Xiao was worried about had a light sleep and got up early in the morning.
Breathing in the still cool air, I went to buy date paste cake for the young master. The street vendors had already started to open their shops one after another. Today was the Little New Year, and the vendors were seizing the last chance to make money.
I went to Yipinlou and saw that the business was good early in the morning. Ever since Han Xiao's breakfast shop closed, Yipinlou learned how to make tofu pudding from Han Xiao and also makes breakfast every morning, but the variety is much more than Han Xiao's.
He ordered some breakfast that the young master liked from Yipinlou, and then rushed to Ruan Mansion.
The people of the Ruan family had probably received the notice, and were not surprised to see Han Xiao coming. They just talked about the young master's recent affairs.
Han Xiao listened and agreed: "How is Uncle Ruan? I'll go down and see."
Steward Ruan looked at Han Xiao lovingly and said, "The master said there's no need to go see him. The young master has been bored these past few days, so I asked you to take him with you and spend some time with him."
Han Xiao nodded and said he understood. He respected the kind old man, Ruan Guanjia, and gave Ruan Guanjia a portion of the snacks he was holding before leaving.
Butler Ruan said that it was not necessary, but he seemed to be in a much better mood. Butler Ruan was not married and had no children, so he really treated the young master as his own child. Seeing Han Xiao was so thoughtful, he was also happy.
When they arrived at the young master's courtyard, Butler Ruan said he had something to go back for. Chuyi looked at Han Xiao, whose eyes were dark blue and his face was still full of resentment.
Han Xiao understood that Chuyi probably didn't sleep well yesterday, so he was in the wrong, so he gave away another portion of the snacks in his hand as an apology. Chuyi and Shiwu were like the young master's best friends, so no matter how stupid Han Xiao was, he still had to please his wife's best friends.
Sure enough, seeing the dim sum, Chuyi's expression became much better: "The young master is already up, you can go in."
Han Xiao nodded: "Trouble."
After Han Xiao went in, Chuyi stood outside holding Shiwu's ear. Shiwu wondered why we weren't going in.
"Ruanruan?" Han Xiao came in and didn't see the young master, so he couldn't help but ask with some doubts.
"Brother Han Xiao, please wait for me for a while, just a while!" The young master's soft voice came from the inner room.
Sure enough, the young master came out from the inner room after a while. Knowing that Han Xiao was coming today, the young master dressed up specially. He wore a red jacket embroidered with gold thread and a dark green long skirt with gold thread. His soft hair was tied into a ponytail with a small golden crown. He looked rich and lively.
Han Xiao's eyes widened when he saw this. Han Xiao always believed that boys should be clean and simple, but after meeting the young master, Han Xiao understood that some people just need to be supported by gold and jade.
"Does Brother Han Xiao look good?" the young master asked with some anticipation, but still a little uneasy in his heart. He had never dressed like this before, and he didn't know whether Han Xiao would like it.
Seeing Han Xiao not speaking for a long time, the young master became deflated, and his fingers restlessly stirred the tassels on his clothes. Did he not like that Brother Han Xiao didn't speak?
Startled by the young master's voice, she came back to her senses and coughed lightly to cover up: "Ahem, it looks very good, it suits Ruanruan very well."
"Really?" The young master's eyes sparkled, and he wanted to find Han Xiao to confirm.
Han Xiao took a step forward and adjusted the young master's collar: "Well, it looks really good. If Ruanruan goes out, she will charm everyone."
"Then have you charmed Brother Han Xiao?" The young master said shockingly.
Han Xiao, who always thought the young master was more reserved, was shocked by the young master's bold words. Han Xiao lowered his head and leaned close to the young master's ear. The warm breath made the young master a little uncomfortable: "Yes, you have fascinated me. I want to marry Ruanruan home."
The young master's face flushed red upon hearing this, and he looked at Han Xiao with tears in his eyes: "That doesn't mean I won't let you marry her."
Han Xiao took a deep breath. The young master's straightforwardness today was really overwhelming.
"Hey, Ruanruan, you haven't had breakfast yet, right? Look what I brought you today."
As he said this, he put all the bags in his hands on the table.
The young master was a little curious. Han Xiao always brought him delicious food. He wondered what today's food would be. The young master was looking forward to it.
Sweet tofu pudding, jujube paste cake, crystal shrimp dumplings, and custard buns are all the signature dishes of Yipinlou. The young master liked them all as soon as he saw them. Although he had already had breakfast, he felt as if he had not eaten anything when he saw these.
After coaxing the young master into eating more breakfast, the young master lay down on the stool, holding his stomach, as he really couldn't eat anymore. Han Xiao touched the young master's stomach, which was so bulging that it seemed that he really couldn't eat enough. He could take care of the rest by himself.
Han Xiao still felt that the young master ate too little. He was so skinny and small that he looked like he could be blown away by a gust of wind.
After eating and drinking, Han Xiao looked at the young master's lazy look and said deliberately: "Oh, I wanted to take Ruanruan out for a walk today. Does Ruanruan still have the energy now?"
When he heard that they were going out, the young master immediately stood up and said, "Yes, yes, I am very strong. Where are we going?"
Seeing the young master's impatient look, Han Xiao deliberately lay down: "But it's very cold outside, and it's snowing. Why don't we play chess in the room?"
The young master took a look at the weather outside the door and gritted his teeth: "I'm not afraid of the cold, let's go outside to take a look and then come back to play chess, okay?"
Seeing the young master's expression on the verge of tears, Han Xiao stopped teasing him and stroked the young master's face: "Okay, let's make it clear. After we go out, Ruanruan must listen to me."
The young master nodded quickly, willing to do anything as long as he could go out. He was almost suffocating at home during this period of time. It wasn't that hard before Han Xiao came.
The carriage was prepared by Butler Ruan, who thoughtfully prepared tea and pastries, fearing that the young master would be hungry on the road. However, this time, the place Han Xiao planned to take the young master was Wanbao Tower in the town.
The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and Han Xiao thought that he seemed to have not given any gifts to the young master yet. This time, he made some money with Lu Ming, which was just enough to buy a gift for the young master.
The young master lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked out the window with great interest. Han Xiao passed by this place every day and didn't think there was anything interesting to see. However, for the young master who had lived in seclusion for a long time, everything was new to him and he couldn't see enough even if he came a few more times.
The carriage stopped outside the gate of Wanbao Tower. Han Xiao got off first and then carried the young master down. Immediately, the guests passing by looked over secretly, wanting to see which young master was so bold in public.
Han Xiao looked unfamiliar, so they didn't take him seriously. However, some people looked at the young master and couldn't help but feel puzzled. Why did the Ruan family let their young master out?
Everyone in the town knew that Mr. Ruan treated Ruan Zhu like the apple of his eye and never let him go out. But this time, he was actually with a boy he had never seen before.
For a moment, the entrance of Wanbao Tower was filled with the whispers of ladies, young ladies, and gentlemen.
