Chapter 239

That laughter made Xu Jiao's heart tremble suddenly, it wasn't his happy smile when he was smiling at him, but the kind that made Xu Jiao shudder when they first met each other.

Xu Jiao didn't know if Jing Qin was concerned, but he looked at He Lianshu with a not-so-good expression. Although he was smiling, the absurdity was not in the slightest. This expression is called——smile on the skin. laugh.

Laughter is also the kind that makes Xu Jiao shudder.

"Captain Helian, don't blame me for not listening to you. My sister is still in her boudoir after all. Even if you have a marriage contract, it's not good if you ask her out and don't come back at night. What do you think?"

The two men were both smiling, and their eyes met silently, but Xu Jiao suddenly had the illusion that he was being roasted on the fire.

Knowing that He Lianshu didn't like Jing Qin since he came, and after listening to his unappealing words, I'm afraid he won't be able to say anything good. If Jing Qin is provoked by this again...Xu Jiao has a headache, But he had to cheer up, the corners of his mouth fluttered, and he was about to say something.

Seeing that He Lianshu actually avoided his sight first, he calmed down the killing intent rising all over his body, and said calmly, "Brother Ruishen is right, it is indeed that I have not thought carefully, and I will definitely pay more attention in the future."

As he spoke, he bowed to Jing Qin.

Both Xu Jiao and Jing Qin were taken aback.

But he had already turned his head and took out a small box from the skirt of his clothes, and handed it to Xu Jiao, "It's snowing late at night, let's go to rest earlier!"

As he spoke, he smiled slightly at Xu Jiao who was still in a daze, then turned around and punched Jing Qin, "Farewell!" Then he turned around and strode into the snowy night.

Xu Jiao clasped the box tightly in his hand, watched his back striding away, submerged by the night and snow, and then pulled back his gaze, and once his gaze touched Jingqin beside him, he immediately retracted, and silently lowered his eyes.

As soon as she stepped into the courtyard gate of Hengwu Garden, the woman guarding the gate smiled and said to her, "Madam just ordered, please go to the main courtyard first when the lady comes back, she is still waiting for the lady."

Xu Jiao frowned, then turned around and went to the main courtyard.

I thought Mrs. Zhao was up to something, but when she saw her, Mrs. Zhao looked her up and down with a smile, "It seems quite happy. By the way, besides eating, did he express anything else?"

"Ah?" Xu Jiao found that he could not understand Mrs. Zhao's words.

Mrs. Zhao frowned and said, "Didn't you say that today is going to make up your birthday?"

Xu Jiao suddenly realized that this was He Lianshu's excuse to persuade Mrs. Zhao to let her leave the mansion. He must have told Mrs. Zhao that he didn't know Xu Jiao's birthday before. On her birthday, Madam Zhao happily agreed to let her go out.

Xu Jiao thought about it, and handed over the small box in his hand, "I don't know what it is, I haven't had time to look at it yet."

Mrs. Zhao took it, opened it, and found that the box was covered with royal blue felt, and on it was a pair of earrings, made of lotus jade, but in the shape of two little rabbits.The rabbit is only as thick as a little finger, but it is exquisitely carved, and its eyes are inlaid with rubies. It is lifelike and naive.

Mrs. Zhao is a discerning person, so she naturally saw that although this thing is not priceless, it was prepared with care, so she smiled very satisfied, closed the box with her backhand, and handed it back to Xu Jiao, "Okay, here's I'm afraid it will snow all night, and the night is getting late, so you should go back to rest earlier."

Xu Jiao took the box, listening to Mrs. Zhao's words, he couldn't laugh or cry.Dare to let her come here just to see the gift He Lianshu prepared for her?Fortunately, He Lianshu was well-prepared, if there is no gift today, this level may be difficult to pass.

Holding the box, Xu Jiao walked out of the main courtyard, went back to Mingyue Residence, took out the pair of earrings and looked at them carefully under the light, the more she looked at them, the happier she was.Speaking of which, the first thing Helian Shu gave her is very meaningful, isn't it?

After looking at it for a while, I wanted to put it back, but suddenly felt that the box was a bit strange, picked it up and fiddled with it for a while, but I didn't know where it was pressed, and a slender hidden compartment popped out from the bottom.

Such a small box actually has exquisite mechanisms and hidden secrets.

There was a thin scroll of paper in the dark compartment. She picked it up and unfolded it. There was only one line of writing on it, which was written in her familiar handwriting: Return the rabbit and the earrings together.

Xu Jiao was taken aback for a moment, and then he reacted, but smiled helplessly, but that smile was like soaked in honey, sweet and relishing.

Mrs. Zhao was right, the snow really fell all night, and it stopped at dawn.

Xu Jiao woke up to the sound of snow plowing. She stretched herself. She slept well last night. When she just woke up, she felt that her whole body was inexhaustible.

As usual, after packing up and having breakfast, she went to the eldest princess' mansion.

There was a bit of snow on the road, although there were people sweeping along the road, it took a little longer to arrive at the Princess's Mansion than usual.

As soon as Xu Jiao entered the gate of the eldest princess's mansion, he felt that today was a bit different. When he arrived at the main courtyard, he saw that the eldest princess who was originally serving sick in the palace was actually in the mansion, and immediately went forward in surprise, "Mother, you are back!" But the queen mother is safe?" The eldest princess entered the palace originally to take care of her biological mother. Although Xu Jiao knew that it was impossible for the empress dowager to recover, the eldest princess came back and seemed to be in a good mood look.

"Ajiao is here?" The eldest princess waved to her with a smile, and when she approached, she took her hand and said with a smile, "That's not true. In a few days, there is a sister in this palace who has not seen for many years and wants to come back." Beijing is here, so Ben Gong came out of the palace to get ready."

While speaking, Aunt Hong brought two maidservants to carry some things up for the eldest princess to have a look at.

The eldest princess glanced at it, raised her finger to the left and said, "She doesn't like such bright colors, but those two are pretty good."

Aunt Hong smiled and said, "It's been a long time, and the servant girl has somewhat forgotten it, but His Highness still remembers it clearly."

Xu Jiao was even more curious, "Who is it that can make mother bother so much?"

"Have you heard of it? Princess Huiming." The eldest princess replied.

Xu Jiao was taken aback for a moment, and after a little thought, he already had an impression, "Is it the one who married into Lu Xi's Jiedu envoy?"

The eldest princess nodded, "That's right. She hasn't been back to Feng'an since she married Lucy. Speaking of which, it's been many years. And her pair of children, I have never seen, I always want to prepare for them Just a little greeting."

Xu Jiao was stunned.That's right, Xu Yu said that day that the fiancée chosen by the Li family for Li Huan would be sent to Feng'an in the near future, and it turned out that she was traveling with Princess Huiming.

Princess Huiming... This one also has a lot of ink in the book. On the surface, she looks knowledgeable and reasonable, but she is a person who is good at strategy and decision-making. The Li family can't achieve great success without her. She is a heroine .

In the book, many of the Li family were not optimistic about Xu Yi, and it was she who fought against all opinions, and the road between Li Huan and Xu Yi went a little smoother.And Xu Yi did not disappoint her, and joined hands with Li Huan to break out of the Li family's world.
