When he came to the street, Chen Xiaoting had a lot of money, so he naturally didn't have to do what he wanted to eat and take cards.

After visiting a few shops, he bought some food for his younger siblings and pulled a few pieces of cloth home.

Finding the familiar alley of the big tree and tidying up his official hat, Chen Xiaoting walked into the alley with a gift to take home in one hand and a saber in the other.

I have to say that although it is a bit inconsistent to hold a big package, Chen Xiaoting's appearance is still good, and it is a handsome word in his own words.

"I don't know what's going on at home, I'm afraid I'm very surprised to see me come back!" Chen Xiaoting muttered.

While thinking about the affairs of the family, Chen Xiaoting walked towards the house with a sullen head, humming a song in his mouth.

At this moment, a delicate female voice suddenly came from the side: "Brother Xiaoting......"

Chen Xiaoting looked in the direction where the voice came from, but saw a girl standing against the door at the gate of a courtyard in the alley, her face full of red glow.

It is conceivable that in this era of etiquette, it takes a lot of courage for a girl to take the initiative to stop him.

After thinking about it carefully, Chen Xiaoting remembered the identity of the girl, it was Zheng Xuan'er, the daughter of Zheng Jian, who took care of him.

After taking two steps forward, Chen Xiaoting asked, "It's Xuan'er, what's the matter?" ”

In my memory, the two have been playmates since childhood, but after Zheng Xuan'er grew older, she rarely intersected with them.

While opening his mouth to ask questions, Chen Xiaoting was also looking at Zheng Xuan'er carefully.

After taking such a closer look, Chen Xiaoting found that the little fart who followed behind him back now has become extremely symbolic.

Not to mention the country and the city, in Chen Xiaoting's opinion, it is almost the same, especially Zheng Xuan'er connected to the red glow, which shows her purity and nature.

Hearing Chen Xiaoting's question, Zheng Xuan'er's face was even more ashamed.

After gritting her teeth and plucking up her courage, she trotted to Chen Xiaoting, and once again mustered up the courage to look up at Chen Xiaoting's eyes.

Then Zheng Xuan'er took out a small cloth bag from her arms, handed it to Chen Xiaoting and said, "Inside is a net towel and a wooden hairpin, give it to you......"

The shy girl hung her head and stretched out her hand to condense the jade, but it made Chen Xiaoting a little embarrassed, and it was not that she didn't take it.

When Chen Xiaoting raised his hand in a ghostly manner, Zheng Xuan'er directly stuffed the small cloth bag into his hand, then turned his head and trotted into the courtyard door, and then closed the door with a "bang".

All this happened very quickly, Chen Xiaoting didn't react now, Zheng Xuan'er expressed anything.

It wasn't until he opened the cloth bag and saw the net towel and wooden hairpin used to tie his hair inside that Chen Xiaoting slapped his head and woke up.

This girl doesn't want to marry me, does she...... Chen Xiaoting said in his heart.

Both scarves and hairpins were used to tie men's hair, and in this era, in addition to mothers, wives were made for their husbands.

Stared at the cloth bag and looked at the kindness for a while, Chen Xiaoting didn't understand how he got into this peach blossom luck, there were a lot of things that made him unprepared today.

To be honest, although Zheng Xuan'er is not bad, Chen Xiaoting only has a good impression of her, and talking about marriage is something that she never thought about.

Maybe I'm thinking too much, maybe that's not what the girl meant...... Chen Xiaoting thought so.

So he can only put things in his arms, and at this time, he can't return them directly, which may hurt people's hearts.

After some crying and laughing, Chen Xiaoting picked up this special gift, and then continued to rush home.

He didn't know that inside the crack in the door of the Zheng family's courtyard, Zheng Xuan'er was looking at his back with a slight smile.

Zheng Xuan'er had already made the things and had always taken them with her, and when she inadvertently met Chen Xiaoting back today, she mustered up the courage to send them out.

It can be said that Zheng Xuan'er's courage is not possessed by more than ninety percent of women in this era.

But even with such courage, Zheng Xuan'er was like an ordinary girl at this time, and her heart was like a deer.

…………

packed up his mood and came to the door, before Chen Xiaoting knocked on the door, he heard a noise in the house.

Nothing will happen to the family! Chen Xiaoting thought so, and then pushed open the door with one hand.

Then he saw that there were indeed outsiders in the house, it was his second uncle Chen Daneng and his family, and the two families were sitting under the big elm tree in the yard at this time.

Seeing that Chen Xiaoting was back, the Chen family was stunned for a long time, and only after a long time did they hear Chen Dayong say: "Xiaoting...... How did you get back! ”

Chen Xiaoting shrugged his shoulders, and then said, "Dad, what are you talking about, can't I come back?" ”

Then, Chen Xiaoting shouted to the younger siblings in the room: "Second and third, the eldest brother brought delicious food back!" ”

This sentence still worked, the two children quickly rushed out of the wing, and Chen Xiaoyu asked first: "Big brother is back, what delicious food did he bring!" ”

Chen Xiaoting handed the package to Chen Xiaolin, and then said, "There are roast chickens and pastries, as well as your favorite sugar gourd, hurry up and eat it!" ”

Then, Chen Xiaoting said to his mother Gao Erniang: "Mother, I also bought a few pieces of cloth back, you look at making a few new clothes for the family!" ”

When Chen Xiaoting finished doing this, the family woke up from their stunned thoughts, and then Chen Dayong said angrily: "Why did you kid come back, it's a big crime to leave the place where you sit without permission!" ”

On the side, Chen Xiaoting's second uncle, Chen Daneng, also said: "Yes, Xiaoting, even if you sit on a cold bench, you have to insist on getting through!" ”

Chen Xiaoting was speechless for a moment, what were the two old men thinking!

But he still explained: "I have made a great contribution and have been transferred back by Lord Baihu...... In other words, I don't have to go to Tessie's church! ”

"Great, big brother doesn't have to go!" At this time, Chen Xiaoyu jumped out and said, she was very happy with the sugar gourd.

Chen Xiaoting touched his little sister's forehead, and then turned his head and asked Chen Dayong: "Dad, I heard you arguing outside the door just now, what happened?" ”

Hearing this, Chen Dayong was not in the mood to care whether what Chen Xiaoting said was true or false, but sighed helplessly.

"Let's let your second uncle say it!" Chen Da said in a heavy tone.

Chen Xiaoting turned his head to the second uncle Chen Daneng, the second uncle who had only had a happy event in the family, and his face was full of solemnity at this time.

"The second uncle's family has a noodle soup shop, and I used to be able to take care of it carefully, but the amount of money I have to pay this month has doubled...... The shop won't be able to open! The desperation in Chen Daneng's words was beyond words.

Paying money is unavoidable to open a shop, it is nothing more than a problem of paying more and paying less.

But Chen Xiaoting still asked: "Why do you pay double?" ”

Chen Daneng said: "The regular money given to the official family has not changed, mainly because of the ruffians on the street, who charge twice as much money as before!" ”

"Our family is a Jinyi Guard, these people don't know?" Chen Xiaoting said angrily, no one dared to force Jinyiwei's people to pay money.

But Chen Daneng said: "Xiaoting, you are not in Guangde, so naturally you can't deter those people...... What's more, there are three talents behind them! ”

Three will ...... Chen Xiaoting read the name in his heart.

Although he didn't know much about it, Chen Xiaoting knew that this was the biggest gang in Guangde Mansion City, and he did a lot of black work in private.

But at this time, Chen Xiaoting slapped the table and said: "If you want to bully our Chen family, you can't do it with three talents!" ”

Now he has a hundred households in his favor, and his relationship with the chief flag officer Zhang Zhenshan is not bad, and he is really good at three times.

But Chen Dayong and the two didn't think so, and only listened to Chen Dayong: "The matter of your sitting in the hall is over, don't meddle in the affairs of the three talents!" ”

After thinking about it, Chen Dayong said: "I still have a few friends in the hundred yamen, it's a big deal for me to give up this old face and beg them to make peace!" ”

Hearing this, Chen Daneng also nodded, there is only one way.

From beginning to end, they didn't think about Chen Xiaoting, because he was too young to get out of the house in Jinyiwei.

Chen Xiaoting couldn't help but smile at this time: "Dad, second uncle...... Looks like you really don't believe me! ”

Chen Dayong glared at him, and then said, "I haven't asked you what's going on, why did you run back from Taixi?" ”

Chen Xiaoting said: "I caught the White Lotus Sect Heavenly King, and then the Thousand Households appreciated me, and the Hundred Households valued me...... Just let me come back! ”

"Bastard...... At this time, you are still bragging, do you know the punishment of Jinyi Wei for leaving his post without permission? Chen Dayong said angrily, picking up the broom on the side and about to beat someone.

Chen Daneng shook his head unconsciously, and secretly said that his nephew likes to brag at a young age, and it will be difficult for him to become a big weapon in the future.

At this moment, a voice came from outside the door of the Chen family's courtyard: "Excuse me, is Lord Chen Xiaoting at home?" ”
