Guangde South City, an inconspicuous alley, is particularly quiet in the early morning.

Under a banyan tree in the alley, Chen Xiaoting was a little cramped at this time, and at the same time stood there with anticipation.

Behind him, Zhang Ertie stood next to Lu Sanbao and Wei Yong, who were now his guides.

"My lord, Miss Xu is in front of you!" Lu Sanbao said on the side.

That's right, Chen Xiaoting is here to say goodbye to Xu Youhui today, after all, this is the first woman who makes him tempted.

Although it was not in line with the etiquette system, Chen Xiaoting still came.

Xu Youhui's family background can only be regarded as average, there are three people in the family, including a father and an elder brother, who live in a small courtyard in the alley.

And the life of this family depends on the fame of Xu Youhui's father and brother, and they can receive some rice and silver money from Fuxue every month.

But these are only enough, so they can only maintain the standard of living of ordinary people.

It stands to reason that both father and son are famous, and they should be doing well, but the Xu family has become like this.

"My lord, my subordinates have checked, the eldest and youngest of the Xu family is named Xu Youwen, and he is now famous for his talents, and he is preparing for the autumn test......" Lu Sanbao said on the side.

Chen Xiaoting nodded, it is not easy for Xiucai to be promoted in the examination.

Just as Lu Sanbao was about to speak, he saw a young girl squeezing out of the crack in the door with a wooden basin.

So Lu Sanbao consciously closed his mouth, and at this time, Chen Xiaoting took a step.

"Miss Xu......" Chen Xiaoting called softly.

It was rude to call a woman by her name, but Chen Xiaoting couldn't help but shout out, and Xu Youhui saw him at once.

I haven't seen each other for a long time, and although the two feel that each other has not changed much, they can't see each other enough.

At this time, Lu Sanbao did not follow, so Chen Xiaoting took the initiative to step forward and take the wooden basin from Xu Youhui.

"Come on, I'll serve it for you!" Chen Xiaoting said slowly.

Xu Youhui was so anxious that she hurriedly said, "Chen ...... Master Chen, don't do this, I'll take these myself! ”

Xu Youhui is not only polite, but also a normal reaction of women in this era, and she has already given him face without shouting "indecent".

Fortunately, it was still early in the morning, and although it was dawn, most of the people were still asleep, at least in this alley.

So in the end, Chen Xiaoting still helped Xu Youhui pick up the wooden basin, which was full of clothes, thinking that it should be his father and brother's.

"Or go outside the city to wash today?" Chen Xiaoting asked.

In fact, I didn't make an appointment with a female companion today, Xu Youhui planned to wash next to the well at the mouth of the alley.

But after hearing Chen Xiaoting's question, Xu Youhui said "um" to the gods.

This is exactly what Chen Xiaoting meant, there are not many eyes and ears outside the city, and it is a good place to "talk about love".

This place is not too far from the gate of Nancheng, and the two of them walked for more than ten minutes before leaving the city gate early.

To be honest, Xu Youhui hadn't left the city so early, and the whole world was quiet, as if it was just the two of them.

The girl didn't speak, Chen Xiaoting took the initiative to say: "Since the last time we said goodbye to the tea shop outside the city, we haven't seen each other for more than a month!" ”

Xu Youhui only nodded, she was different from other women after all, and she didn't show excessive shyness at this time.

Immediately, Chen Xiaoting said again: "I heard that your father and brother are both scholars? ”

Xu Youhui took the wooden basin from Chen Xiaoting's hand, and then said: "My father has been canceled from making a name for himself, and now he is studying hard!" ”

Originally, Chen Xiaoting just asked casually, but he didn't expect to hear this, so he asked again: "Why was it canceled for fame?" ”

Xu Youhui couldn't help but smile miserably and said: "It's not for the fraud in the science field, my father was wronged!" ”

"But no one believed him, not even his family believed him, and he took away his fame back then!"

The events of that year were also involved in fraud in the field, and even were dismissed......

If it is really a fraud in the field, I am afraid that it is not only as simple as removing the fame, it seems that there is something strange about what happened back then.

But Chen Xiaoting couldn't promise anything to Xu Youhui, so he could only say: "Since your father and brother have studied hard, they will be able to succeed in this year's autumn test, and the emperor will live up to his wishes!" ”

But Xu Youhui was not so easily persuaded, only to see her smile and say: "Thank you Jiyan, they have all been taking the exam for seven or eight years, and I am afraid that I will not have any hope!" ”

Xu Youhui was very calm when she said this, as if it was none of her business, which made Chen Xiaoting very puzzled.

Immediately, Xu Youhui gave the answer, only to hear her: "They only know how to read, they only know how to read...... Even my mother was seriously ill and no one took care of her, so she ......"

Xu Youhui choked up a little when he said this, and then didn't say any more, obviously mentioning the sad place.

Chen Xiaoting didn't expect that the smart and confident beautiful girl on Shangyuan Night would be so fragile and sad in her heart.

This also made Chen Xiaoting understand why Xu Youhui liked him, it may be that this girl is insecure, and he just brought her this.

A desire to protect arose spontaneously from the bottom of his heart, and at this time, Chen Xiaoting just wanted the woman in front of him not to be sad.

But he didn't have a good way to comfort people, so he could only say: "Miss Xu, don't be sad about these things, people always have to look forward!" ”

"We can't change the things in the past, but we can make our own decisions in the future, and everything can be beautiful!" Chen Xiaoting said calmly, but this is more like telling the truth.

Chicken soup for the soul, who has not been poured into these things in the previous life, is just reading from the book now.

For Xu Youhui, this is a relatively new statement, at least she has not seen it in the book.

But these words are very reasonable, and they can be said to nourish her soul and relieve some of the pain in her heart.

Chen ...... Thank you, Lord Chen! Xu Youhui wiped his cheeks briefly and said.

Chen Xiaoting said: "Don't call me Shengfen, you can call me Brother Chen!" ”

Remembering that he hadn't said anything serious, Chen Xiaoting said: "I'm going to Luyang, you take care of yourself in the future, I will find time to come back to see you!" ”

Hearing this news, Xu Youhui couldn't help but be shocked, and then asked, "What are you going to do in Luyang?" ”

Chen Xiaoting said: "The order of the Thousand Households, let me go to Luyang to do things!" ”

At this time, Xu Youhui was a little lost, and she had a feeling that something precious was about to leave her, which made her feel sad.

But she still smiled and said, "That little woman congratulates Chen ...... Big Brother Ascension! ”

Although I don't understand the specific rank of Jinyiwei, I went from Guangde to the provincial city of Luyang, and after a little thought, I knew that it was a high promotion.

But Xu Youhui forced a smile, and Chen Xiaoting was very distressed, so he said: "It's not a high promotion, it's better to stay in Guangde, at least I can see you at any time!" ”

This was much more explicit, but Chen Xiaoting went further and said: "Youhui, I will tell you some things directly......

"I want to marry you!"

Xu Youhui was stunned, all her emotions were now empty, and her brain was blank at this time.

This kind of thing is earth-shattering in this era, and Chen Xiaoting's words really scared Xu Youhui.

Even at this time, she didn't even want to wash her clothes, so she picked up the wooden basin and was about to run back home, leaving Chen Xiaoting in place a little embarrassed.

But since the words were spoken, he wanted to express his meaning in place, so Chen Xiaoting followed: "Youhui, you don't have to worry, it won't be long before I go to your house to propose!" ”

The girl in front was in a hurry, and the young man in the back laughed and followed, merging with the good scenery outside Guangdefu.
