Chapter 025: Visitation
"Say, what are you looking for my second brother?" Xu Chusheng held his hands, stood in front of Xu Yuan's bed, and looked at her with a smile.
Xiao Lan on the side silently handed over a piece of jade pendant, and Xu Chusheng saw that it was the one he had left before, and he didn't take it.
Xu Yuan took the jade pendant from Xiaolan's hand and asked, "Why don't you take it?" "She is not yet well, and she is still sick in bed at the moment.
Xu Chusheng moved a chair and sat down freely, almost crossed his feet, and said: "Why do you want to take it, this is originally your thing, since you are back, it should naturally be returned to the original owner." ”
Xu Yuan raised her eyebrows to look at him, always feeling that the person in front of her was not the same as the one she had met on the way to escape from the wilderness before, and asked, "Mine?" Why? ”
Xu Chusheng was not surprised that Xu Yuan would ask such a question, and he didn't intend to hide it from her, so he waited very patiently for Xu Yuan to continue to ask.
Xu Yuan really said again: "Did you save me at that time for another purpose?" Or, do you know that I am Xu Shuyuan? ”
Xu Chusheng didn't start from her words, but said to himself: "Going to the south, looking for a doctor for my mother is one thing, and on the other hand, it is the witch doctor I found to take a hexagram." ”
Shaman? Divination? What kind of mess is this? Xu Yuan frowned.
And Xu Chusheng continued: "What I said to you before about 'traction in the dark' is, of course, a lie to you. The witch doctor said that the time had come, and told me the location of my little sister. It wasn't until I was disappointed and started my way back that I met you on the road. Saying that, Xu Chusheng also glanced at Xiaolan, thinking that there are still some things to ask the witch doctor about recently.
Xu Yuan was still puzzled and said, "So what? What about running into us, how do you know I'm going to be your own sister? If you're sure of my identity, just say no, why bother with some kind of pretence? ”
Xu Chusheng explained: "It's not a big deal, the method of testing the bloodline provided by the witch doctor needs to leave you for a while to see. I also found out that you were not born in the previous Xu Mansion, and when your aunt brought you into the Xu Mansion, you were no longer in swaddling clothes, and your background was suspicious. It is more certain that your identity is determined under the inspection of both sides. Besides, isn't it strange that a stranger suddenly says that you are his sister?
Sure enough, she was still investigated, I don't know if she found out about her temperament change? Xu Yuan muttered in her heart, do you suddenly want me to pretend to be your sister, do I feel right?
Xu Chusheng said seriously: "I know you have difficulty accepting it for a while, but this is not a bad situation, right?" Regardless of whether you accept your current identity or not, it is better to be the young lady of our Xu family than the young lady of the Xu family before. My mother cherishes you, and I cherish my sister. Xu Chusheng bit the words "my sister" very hard
Xu Yuan's eyelids jumped, and he seemed to be able to sense the strong threat in Xu Chusheng's words, and said: "Young Master Xu, no matter what, you saved my life before, and I promised you that I would not regret it, so I don't need to be so nervous to remind me." ”
Xu Chusheng smiled and said, "That's good." It's time for you to change your words, it doesn't matter if you can't change it, just don't call Xu Gongzi anymore. The one I care about the most is my mother, I can understand your mood right now, and there is definitely no way to easily accept a mother who has disappeared for so long. But trouble sister you, slowly get into your part. ”
Xu Yuan's purpose in looking for Xu Chusheng was to return the jade pendant to him, and to ask some things clearly. Although the answer given by Xu Chusheng was more metaphysical, it was finally explained. She couldn't help but ask again: "Why did you leave the jade pendant there at that time, did you want me to take it to move the rescuers for you?" ”
Xu Chusheng was stunned, and after reacting, he laughed for a while: "You don't think I threw it down on purpose, right?" He saw that Xu Yuan was stunned by his laughter, and said: "How could I pin my hopes on the slim matter of you discovering that Yu Pei traveled thousands of miles to find someone to save me?" That jade pendant was just left behind when it was entangled with the thief. But you are indeed very smart and lucky, and you happened to meet Wen Hongshen. I want to thank you. Take that jade pendant, it was originally given to you by your mother back then, don't lose it. ”
Xu Yuan just wanted to ask some more things when there was a knock on the door.
Xiao Lan hurriedly opened the door, and it was Shuyu standing outside the door, and she said to the house: "Second young master, miss." Miss Du is in the yard and wants to visit her. ”
Seeing this, Xu Yuan looked at Xu Chusheng, and when he nodded slightly, he said, "Let this girl wait a while and come in." ”
"Yes." Shuyu went out when she heard this, and glanced at Xiaolan meaningfully before leaving.
Xu Chusheng stood up and said, "Forget the previous Xu Mansion, or according to the identity I arranged with you before." ”
Xu Yuan said clearly: "Okay, are you afraid that my identity will cause trouble to the Xu Mansion, and you are afraid that one day they will come to the door?" ”
Xu Chusheng nodded and said, "Just know, it's quite brisk to talk to you." By the way, the girl outside is my sister-in-law's maiden cousin, and she stays with us. She is a good person, if you have the heart to associate with her, it is okay if you don't want to deal with it. ”
Xu Chusheng's expression became serious, and at this moment he really looked like a brother: "In Xu Mansion, you don't need to look at other people's eyes. ”
After speaking, when Xu Chusheng was about to leave, Miss Du came. She was alone, and she didn't bring a maid, just walked into the house, and saw that Xu Chusheng was also here, and smiled generously: "The second young master is also here, it seems that the time is wrong for me to visit Sister Yuan, I'm really sorry." ”
Hearing the title of Sister Yuan, Xu Yuan's expression froze, and Xu Chusheng smiled over there: "You came just in time, I was just about to leave." ”
When Xu Chusheng left, Xu Yuan smiled and said: "Miss Du, sit down here, I can't get up here, and I don't have any tea and snacks, please forgive me for not being well entertained." ”
"Sister Yuan, I'm going to see you outside." Du Jingqing still maintained a just right smile, "My surname is Du, and my name is Qinqing." ”
After a few polite words were acquainted, seeing that Xu Yuan didn't seem to be in high spirits, Du Jingqing planned to leave very insightfully: "Sister Yuan, you should be tired, I won't bother." After that, if you're bored, you can come to Qingmeiin to find me. ”
Xu Yuan smiled and learned Du Jingqing's tone, and said, "Okay, goodbye, Sister Jing." ”
Coming to this trip today, Du Jingqing didn't plan to establish a deep bond with Xu Shuyuan at one time, just came to get acquainted, and left after the goal was achieved.
Xu Yuan's impression of Du Jingqing is not bad, a cute and agile girl is very likable everywhere, and this girl is also more likable.
But it is true that the illness has not healed, Xu Yuan has only sat up for a long time, and he felt that he was too weak, so he hurriedly called Xiaolan to help him lie down, and said: "You have been busy for so long, so let's rest for a while." ”
As soon as Xiaolan wanted to refuse, Xu Yuan said with a straight face: "Go ahead." Previously, Mrs. Xu also dialed my two personal maids, and I don't want to see them every day. It just so happens that you haven't closed your eyes much in the past few days, and if you continue like this, people will fall, how can you accompany me? ”
Xiaolan listened to Xu Yuan's explanation and said, "The slave is not tired, but the slave is not good, so the young lady is worried." ”
Xu Yuan was helpless, since she arrived at Xu's Mansion, Xiaolan seemed to have become the little maid with a straight intestine and a wooden bowel before, and said, "Rest well, don't think too much, call Shuqing to come in and serve." ”
