If you want to see Xia Hanxue again, it is not difficult for Xiao Jing.

He has made great contributions to the Xia family, and he is Xue'er's sweetheart. Even if the Xia family has big rules, if he lowers his posture and comes to the door in person, it is not a violation of etiquette to meet Xue'er in front of a group of people.

Although you have to endure a bunch of light bulbs and can't talk about your heart, it's better than vain lovesickness.

Sadly, he didn't even get that wish.

In the past half a month, Xiao Jing has made four trips to Xia Mansion, but without exception, he has eaten behind closed doors. The other party was still very polite, and he kept calling him a benefactor, but no matter when he ran, Xia Honghan was not at home.

It's really strange, could it be that this person lives outside? Does he Xiao really have such a great amount of energy that people can avoid it?

Things are already obvious.

has enthusiasm in his chest but receives this kind of cold reception, even if the Buddha also has fire, not to mention Xiao Jing, who already has a temper?

It's a pity that no matter how angry he is, he has no way to deal with the Xia family.

How can a person who is ready to be a son-in-law be angry with his future father-in-law? Who has ever seen a man turn his face with the future old Taishan when he has not yet skimmed the eight characters? Isn't that a brain in the water?

As long as she has not arrived at the door, her daughter is still her father's little padded jacket. In Xiao Jing's previous life, the prospective son-in-law who came to see the future father-in-law had to coax the second elder nervously, so as to "accompany him to eat, drink, and laugh", not to mention that he was in the Darui Dynasty, which did not have the concept of "free love" and the future of his daughter could be decided by his father?

If he were replaced by someone else, he might also set off a public opinion offensive with "public and private use", taking the opportunity to sneer and sneer; However, the head of the Xia family is someone he can't offend.

It's just so depressing.

Let's talk about Qin Ziqian. Since Xia Hanxue returned home, Miss Qin has been grounded; For Xiao Jing, this news is also very bad.

As the backbone of the newspaper, Qin Ziqian's manuscripts are extremely weighty. Her disappearance not only made Shao Ning and Pan Feiyu miserable, but even the burden on Xiao Jing's shoulders was a lot heavier.

Even if you're afraid that Ziqian will help me deliver the news, you won't lock her up like a prisoner, right?

Xiao Jing, who was very anxious, still pretended to be indifferent on the surface, but Xiaoya and others could often see him standing in the courtyard absentmindedly looking at the sky.

After a few days, he let go a little, and the gloom on his face was not as strong as before.

Before the Xia family took action, things were not really clear, and they must not mess with themselves. When everything is clear, it's never too late to figure out a way!

So, Xiao Jing forcibly pressed his thoughts and put them down in a daze.

Just the day before yesterday, a northern businessman who I didn't know came to visit. He kept saying that he had a big business in Linzhou, and it was the Mirror News that reinvigorated the people of Linzhou and saved him a lot of trouble; In order to express his gratitude, he specially sent a lot of nourishing and strengthening northern goods, as well as some unseemly medicinal materials. A small gift is not a tribute, please President Xiao smiled at it.

Xiao Jing didn't want to accept it, but after some hard work, he came up with the momentum of "if you don't accept it, I won't leave"; In desperation, he could only accept it.

Afterwards, he was afraid of taking the wrong medicine, so he specially invited a famous doctor to help him identify the goods. Na Langzhong looked at it and said in amazement: "The old man has practiced medicine all his life, and he has only seen this medicine three times." Don't hide it from the son, the last time I saw this medicinal material, it was when Sun Ge of Zhishi was seriously ill. According to the old decay, this flavor medicine alone is a priceless treasure in the market, even if the rich party may not be able to buy it, it depends on chance......"

Xiao Jing was dumbfounded at that time. Don't you bring such a reward for gratitude, is your family's money for nothing?

Suddenly, a shadow appeared in his mind, and there was a reasonable explanation for the strange businessman's behavior.

Is it Lu Shanshan?

It's really hard for ordinary people to get their hands on these things. But she is the noble princess of Beihu, as long as she is willing to speak, what can't she do?

Xiao Jing's heart was filled with warmth. I don't know how Lu Shanshan Nannizi is doing on the grassland? Did Lu Chong, who made her annoyed and helpless, harass her? Will she go south again after a while, or even sneak to the newspaper office to see her old colleagues?

All this can only be answered by time.

Spring is getting stronger, and the weather outside has warmed up.

Today's work is still busy, but it's not the busiest time yet. Xiao Jing, who was full of worries, was already sleepless, and was blown by the warm breeze, so he simply lay on the table and took a nap.

With continuous recuperation, his body is finally better than before. However, a serious injury is a serious injury after all, and the body that should be strong and powerful is still a lot weaker, except that the injury will be dull and painful when it rains on a cloudy day, and the whole person's energy is also much worse, and it is especially easy to feel tired.

Just as Xiao Jing had just fallen asleep, a deliberately suppressed exclamation suddenly came from the courtyard: "Lian'er? What's wrong with you? ”

The person who opened the door was Dong Xiaoya. Before opening the door, the exhausted Lian'er fell down; If it weren't for her quick eyes, I'm afraid that Lian'er would have been lying on the ground.

Xiaoya was about to speak, when a strong wind suddenly blew behind her for no reason. Looking at the side again, Xiao Jing was already standing beside the two of them, not only was his salallow face full of concern, but even the melancholy climbed up the corners of his eyebrows and eyes again.

"Don't worry, say something slowly." The embarrassed Lian'er made Xiao Jing very worried: "But did Xue'er ask you to summon you?" ”

The exhausted Lian'er struggled to see the courtesy, and said breathlessly: "The master is not in the house, the lady asks the son to go and meet the young lady quickly...... The opportunity must not be lost, the loss will not come again, the young lady is on a hunger strike, and only the son can talk to her now......"

After saying that, she finally couldn't hold back her tears.

Xiao Jing's body shook. It took a very short time to calm down, and he gritted his teeth and firmly threw out a word: "Go!" ”

On the way to Xiafu, he heard what happened.

Xia Honghan controlled his daughter's actions for some reason, and from time to time released a few cold words related to Xiao Jing; It stands to reason that the sensible Xia Hanxue will never disobey her father, but she seems to have a premonition of something, and in desperation, she adopted the heart-wrenching method of hunger strike to fight.

For this reason, Mrs. Xia and her husband quarreled several times, but the iron-hearted Xia Honghan refused to let go.

is willful when he is a father, but he feels sorry for his daughter; So, Mrs. Xia, who knew what she knew, took advantage of Xia Honghan's absence to call Lian'er to find Xiao Jing, hoping that he could untie Xue'er's knot.

Coincidentally, Lian'er's car broke down in the middle of the road, and it was delayed for a lot of time.

Finally found the carriage and horses, Xiao Jing asked in a hurried tone, "How long has Xue'er been on hunger strike?" ”

Lian'er lowered her head and said, "It's been three days. ”

"Three days ......" Xiao Jing, who was anxious, read it silently, and said hurriedly: "Handlebar type, work faster!" ”
