Xia Chen grabbed the coins and ring in his hand, turned his head and smiled: "It's nothing, it's just basking in the sun." ”

Cen Shaoze glanced at the box on the table in the pavilion: "Didn't you also come to give me a gift?" ”

Xia Chen glanced at him: "Wood chopping knife, do you want it?" ”

"Wood chopping knife?" Cen Shaoze was confused.

After listening to Xia Chen's explanation, Cen Shaoze looked at the sword in the box and said regretfully: "In this way, this sword is nothing more than ...... He wanted to pick it up and take a look, but as soon as his fingertips touched ......the hilt of the sword, he gasped.

"What's wrong, Brother Cen?" Xia Chen asked hurriedly.

"This sword is so cold! And the pattern on this sword seems to be a kind of writing. ”

Xia Chen said: "I feel so too, but I haven't seen such words." She didn't pay much attention to this, many ethnic tribes have their own writings, and I don't know how many have been lost, and this sword is definitely an antiquity regardless of whether it is good or bad.

Cen Shaoze frowned and pondered for a while: "I can't remember seeing runes like this there!" But Brother Chen, what are you buying it for? "It's a bit far-fetched to say that it's literal, more like a symbol with some special meaning.

Xia Chen shrugged: "I've always been interested in these strange things, it's a whim. Brother Cen, I'll put this sword and these ancient coins here for you first, and I'll take them back when it's convenient for me another day." ”

"Okay."

Then a servant came and said, "Lunch is ready." ”

Xia Chen blinked: "After running all morning, I'm really hungry." ”

"I don't know what you're up to!" Cen Shaoze said with a little doting, as if Xia Chen was really his baby brother.

While eating, Xia Chen asked, "Brother Cen, why have I never seen your eldest brother?" ”

"He went to Qingzhou with my father and served as the governor of the state."

"Oh." It seems that the Cen family is quite peaceful. Xia Chen felt a little relieved, but there was also a little surprise, Taiwei Yan and those people didn't fall into the stone? She never believes that they have a forgiving and forgiving mind, they haven't been in the court for a day or two, everyone knows that officialdom is the same as the battlefield, if you don't die, I will die.

Maybe they are afraid of the relationship between General Yue, or maybe the Cen family still has a lot of power in the court, and they are not fully sure. And Cen Shaoze is not a threat to them in a short period of time. Naturally, it's not too dangerous. Xia Chen thought optimistically.

Cen Shaoze saw that Xia Chen liked to eat steamed carp, so he moved the dish to her: "Eat more." ”

Just after dinner, a servant came over and said, "Childe." Bachelor Tang is here. ”

Xia Chen wiped his mouth: "Brother Cen, you go get busy, I'll go back to the academy." "Although Mr. Wu helped, it was inevitable that people would be suspicious as soon as he disappeared for a whole day.

Cen Shaoze got up and said, "It's okay." ”

Xia Chen deliberately rushed back to the academy at the time of class just now. As soon as she entered the study, Wu Juan'er's expression seemed to be relieved, but her tone was still very anxious: "Chen'er." You're back, something has gone wrong. ”

"What's going on, you say slowly."

Wu Juan'er pulled her to sit down: "You haven't been to the dining hall at noon for the past two days, and your two cousins have come to my father to ask." ”

Xia Chen frowned slightly: "Why do the two of them care about me?" And what about later? ”

Wu Juan'er said: "I said that you didn't finish the homework that Mr. explained. So I didn't come out for dinner, and then I got one for you and pretended to take it to the study, and finally got over it. Chen'er. If it goes on like this, it won't work. ”

Xia Chen smiled and said, "My business has been almost done, and I won't go out for the next few days." Sister Juan'er will send me back to school. ”

"Hmm."

When she came to the school room, Wu Juan'er said, "Dad, he has memorized the book you confessed." ”

Mr. Wu nodded, looked at Xia Chen and said lightly: "Let's go back to the seat and listen to the lecture first, and I will personally test you when I go back." ”

Until the end of school, the world was peaceful. As soon as he got off the carriage when he returned to Xia Mansion, Xia Chen saw Xia Feiyang standing at the door.

"Chen'er, come with me."

"Oh."

Xia Feiyang took her directly to the south study, and didn't return when she entered the house, and said coldly: "Close the door." ”

Xia Chen closed the door with his hand, thinking that looking at this posture was a bit like asking the teacher to ask for guilt.

Xia Feiyang sat down and looked at her with a stern expression: "I heard that you were punished by your husband in the academy, and you weren't even allowed to eat lunch, but is there such a thing?" ”

Xia Chen suddenly felt in her heart when she heard this, it turned out that the sun was still coming out of the east, and the reason why her two cousins cared about her was to make a small report.

"Uncle, there is indeed a matter of being punished for endorsement, but there is no food, and Chen'er has memorized the book and went back to school to listen to the lecture."

Xia Feiyang said: "So I don't have to go to your husband to tell you, the punishment will be punished, how can I do if I don't let you eat." ”

Xia Chen was suddenly a little moved, it turned out that Xia Feiyang didn't want to blame her, but was afraid that she would starve. "Uncle, don't you even ask why Chen'er was punished?"

"Naturally, I want to ask, let's talk."

Xia Chen smiled slightly: "It's not a big deal, it's just that Chen'er said that Mr. spoke too slowly, and Mr. said that I didn't understand the importance of the basics, so he punished me for endorsing and thinking about it." ”

Xia Feiyang showed a faint smile on his face, and actually said that Mr. spoke slowly, and it seemed that his nephew was learning very easily, so he could consider letting him learn something else. Although he thought so, he still said in a stern tone: "Mr. Wu's words are right, and the foundation is very important. Saying that, he stood up: "After dinner, you go to my place, I will teach you a set of boxing, and get up every morning to practice for half an hour." ”

Xia Chen secretly complained in his heart, what he taught him was nothing more than basic boxing, which was of little use to her, but in this way, she could practice martial arts in the courtyard in a straightforward manner. "Yes, uncle, that Chen'er went back first."

"Go ahead."

Xia Chen thought that the old lady had just gotten out of bed yesterday, and was about to stop by to take a look. Before he stepped into the courtyard gate, he suddenly heard Qian's shout from the courtyard.

"Sun Fengjiao, you really raised a good daughter, and you actually pushed my daughter into the water!"

Sun said: "Don't think that you are now the main mother and can spray people with blood casually, it is clear that your crazy daughter pushed Yarong into the water and fell into the water by herself, I didn't settle accounts with you, but you took a bite." ”

Qian said: "Your family has no conscience. You don't want to think about it, without our master, can you eat and dress well and live in such a good house? ”

Xia Chen already knew about the two sisters falling into the water, and now he heard these words. I thought there was a good show to watch now. She crept into the courtyard. Seeing that the Qian family and the Sun family were both crossed waists, pointing at each other with one hand, the mother-in-law and maidservants all stood aside with their heads down. No one dared to come forward to persuade them, and they couldn't persuade them to do this kind of thing.

Sun was obviously angry, and his fingertips kept trembling: "Qian Lamei, I have already seen through it." You don't like us! In that case, I don't care about any face. It's better to be poked in the back than to look at people's faces all day long and break up! Anyway, it's going to be embarrassing, everyone is throwing it together! ”

At this time, the door of the main house was pushed open suddenly, and the old lord scolded angrily: "Have you made enough trouble!" ”

Qian preemptively said: "Taijun, you have to make decisions for Jinghua." ”

Sun followed: "Taijun." Do you know what kind of child Yarong is, she took good care of Jinghua, and almost lost her life but was wronged. How can you bear it. ”

It turned out that the two had just returned from the temple and learned that their daughter had fallen into the water. The two asked the reason, and they all came to the old lady for comment. When they met each other on the road, they didn't have to introduce themselves, they quarreled directly and quarreled all the way to the yard.

The old lady said: "You all go back to your own courtyard for me, and bring Yarong and Jinghua to my room early tomorrow." With that, he turned around and went back to the house and asked Yu'er to close the door.

Qian and Sun glared at each other, one walking towards the hall, and the other towards the courtyard gate.

Xia Chen retreated to the door, flashed behind a tree, watched Sun lead people away, and turned around and walked towards his yard after a little thought.

The old lady is so angry that she is furious, why should she move forward, things have developed to this point, she doesn't even need to fan the flames, and then go about her own business.

Let's see what they can do in the end.

After dinner, Xia Qingyang asked her to tell her that she didn't have to go over today, Xia Chen thought that it must be the Sun family who made a big fuss, and Xia Qingyang was afraid that he was already anxious at this time.

Seeing that it would not be dark for half a while, Xia Chen decided to sneak out and go to Cen Shaoze to get the sword back.

Leaving Xia Mansion from the chaimen of the servant's courtyard, Xia Chen had just walked a few steps when she felt someone following her behind her. She turned sharply, and saw a figure flash behind a willow tree by the side of the road.

"Come out!"

In a moment, a young man dressed in a cyan guard uniform with a slightly haggard face walked out from behind the tree and stared at Xia Chen with an almost frantic look: "Who are you from the Xia family?" Why haven't I seen you? ”

Xia Chen sneered: "I haven't asked you what you sneakily follow me to do, you should ask me first." ”

The young man was stunned: "You won't be the third young master of Xia Mansion, right?" ”

Xia Chenfeng's eyes narrowed slightly, this man seemed to know Xia Mansion very well, but he was not a guard of Xia Mansion, because the color of his clothes was wrong. "Who sent you to spy on Xia Mansion?"

The young man suddenly looked up and laughed, but the laughter was full of indescribable grief and indignation.

Suddenly, he stopped laughing, and the two of them walked in front of Xia Chen, stretched out their hands to Xia Chen's throat, and at the same time roared in their mouths: "Yarong, is something wrong with her?" You ......" he was shocked to find that he had caught the air.

Xia Chen didn't seem to have moved in place, she looked at the young man indifferently: "She accidentally fell into the water last night." ”

"Overboard? Sue me how she is now! The young man said that he wanted to grab Xia Chen's collar again.

Xia Chen waved his hand to block it: "I said that you have something to say, can't you say it well?" Do you have to do it with your hands and feet? She saw that the young man was so nervous about Xia Yarong, and the two seemed to have frequent contacts, the reason why he was so anxious should be because Xia Yarong suddenly broke the appointment.

Looking at his figure, skills and dress, Xia Chen concluded that this man was the guard who had been driven away before, and he was also the man in black that she and Yueniang saw that night.

The young man lowered his hand, he found that Xia Chen and the rest of the Xia family didn't seem to be the same, and he didn't recognize him, so he didn't care about his impulse to rush into the Xia Mansion even if he was desperate, but he suddenly cooled down. "I ...... I ...... "For a moment he didn't know what to say."

Xia Chen looked a little impatient: "You are Sister Yarong's lover*lang, right?" She is now recuperating in the third lady's recuperation, and it is no big problem, and you will be able to see each other soon. "It turns out that it is not Xia Jinghua who has a sweetheart, but Xia Yarong, it is really messy enough, and you have to take care of it when you go back.

When the young man heard this, his face turned red, and he defended himself: "I'm not, you misunderstood, I ......"

Xia Chen raised his hand to interrupt him: "It has nothing to do with me, I still have something, don't follow me anymore." ”

The young man looked like he had been slapped in the face, and then said with a wry smile: "It has nothing to do with me, it doesn't matter, she said the same thing!" After that, he turned around and walked forward slowly, his steps were very heavy, and he muttered, "How can you say that it's okay?" Two years of love...... Are they all deceitful ......"

Xia Chen savored his words and felt as if he had been dumped by Xia Yarong! What's going on? Does Xia Yarong like him or not? What exactly did she do for it?

A woman's heart is really right!
