Rebirth: Hug Chu Guogong's Thigh Tightly

Chapter 32 A Snowy Night
In the room, while eating grapes, Xia Keyu told his cousin what happened in the palace.

"It's dangerous, you were almost implicated." Fan Yin said with some fear, "The mother and daughter are really ambitious."

Xia Keyu nodded and said, "Yes."

But she came here this time to discuss another matter with Fan Yin:

"Cousin, when my mother got married, my grandfather married a lot of fertile land, shops, and villages. Now it is said that I have lost a lot of money. I have limited ability, so I ask my cousin to help me check."

"It's easy to say, easy to say." Fan Yin agreed wholeheartedly.

Xia Keyu sent his cousin away, and went to find his younger brother, Xia Demao, with a bowl of grapes.

Xia Demao has obviously become more well-behaved in the past few days, and he is busy with homework in the academy every day.

Without Aunt Rong and Xia Kelian sowing discord in front of him, he also liked Xia Keyu a lot.

"Grape!"

As soon as Xia Demao saw the grapes, he immediately ran over happily, licking his mouth so greedy, his eyes were full of longing, and asked, "Sister, are these all for me?"

Xia Keyu smiled gently and said: "Of course. Maoer has studied hard recently, this is to reward you."

This made Xia Demao a little embarrassed, and said coyly, "Thank you sister."

Xia Keyu rubbed his fleshy face and said, "Hurry up, you're not a little girl, why are you so shy?"

Xia Demao hurriedly ate the grapes hungrily, his face full of happiness.

Halfway through eating, he asked again as if thinking of something: "Sister, I heard from the servant that the second sister was beaten and it was still very serious."

Xia Keyu knew that even if she didn't say it, many people would.

Immediately nodded and said: "Yes, your second sister said something wrong, did something wrong in the palace, and offended the nobleman, so she was beaten."

Xia Demao nodded and said, "This is the same as being punished by my master for failing to finish my homework in the academy."

Xia Keyu nodded in agreement.

After returning from Xia Demao's place, Xia Keyu washed and slept peacefully, but today she was exhausted.

Her mind and soul have not fully recovered, she has done too much hard work, and urgently needs to rest.

Outside, the gray sky began to drift with little snow the size of salt grains.

Xia Keyu, however, slept extremely peacefully, unaware of everything that happened outside.

Duke Chu's Mansion
Chu Yuan stared at the grapes in the handkerchief that Chi Yan brought back, and was in a daze.

Chi Yan at the side couldn't stand it any longer. The father-in-law has been staring at the bunch of grapes for more than an hour. What's so good about a bunch of grapes? Do you want to eat it or not?

Immediately stepped forward, interrupted Chu Yuan and asked, "Grandpa, do you want to eat these grapes? I'll ask the people in the small kitchen to wash them for you."

Chu Yuan came back to his senses, motioned Chi Yan to bring over a bowl, and filled the bunch of grapes.

Then he said: "Get some water."

Chi Yan at the side heard this and hurriedly said: "Grandpa, are you going to wash and rest?"

Chu Yuan shook his head and said, "I want to wash this handkerchief."

Chi Yan asked with some doubts: "Is the father-in-law going to wash it and return it to Miss Xia? I guess Miss Xia does not lack this handkerchief."

Seeing that Chu Yuan was silent.

Only then did Chi Yan realize belatedly that he was talking too much, so he went cautiously to ask the servants to fetch water.

Chu Yuan was left to stare at the handkerchief in a daze.

Not long after, Chi Yan brought in a basin of clear water himself, shook his body and said, "Grandpa, it's snowing outside."

Only then did Chu Yuan seem to think of something, and hurriedly said: "Ask someone to clean the grapes, collect some snow, and store them in the ice cellar together."

Chi Yan became more and more strange, wouldn't the grapes be bad if they didn't eat them?Why should it be stored in the ice cellar instead?He really didn't understand what his father-in-law was thinking.

Chu Yuan cleaned the handkerchief carefully, thinking in his heart that when he returned the handkerchief later, he could see Xia Keyu again.

Thinking of this, a faint joy rose in my heart.

It was night, Chu Yuan looked at the clean handkerchief, looked at the snow falling outside the window, and thought of Xia Keyu in a blink of an eye, tossing and turning, did not sleep well all night.

On the other side, Xia Kelian was dragged back and didn't wake up until midnight.

"Mother, I messed up." Xia Kelian opened her eyes and saw Aunt Rong, tears rolled down her eyes.

Aunt Rong at the side hurriedly fed Xia Kelian water, and comforted her: "My Lian'er, don't worry, even if you offend the imperial concubine, there is no way out."

Said, looked around no one, opened the mouth and said:

"A cousin of your second aunt works as a nanny in the third prince's house, so she can speak in front of the third prince. When the time comes, we will give her some money and meet the third prince by chance."

As she spoke, she touched Xia Kelian's delicate face and said, "My daughter is so beautiful, she will definitely charm the Third Prince."

"The most urgent thing is to heal your injuries first."

Xia Kelian was relieved when she heard that her mother had another trick.

When Xia Keyu woke up, Qing Ya on the other end said with a joyful face, "Miss, it snowed last night."

Xia Keyu was lying in the warm blanket, looking out the window lazily. In the early spring, a thin layer of snow fell on the branches outside.

Only then did Xia Keyu suddenly remember that He Zi'an, the husband who gave Mu Xueshan the handkerchief in her previous life, died on such a snowy day, that is, last night.

The next day, Mu Xueshan and her daughter were kicked out by the He family of Taipusi.

Xia Keyu thought of this, and hurriedly got up from the bed.

Qing Ya on the side was startled, and asked in confusion: "Miss, you don't need to greet the old lady for a few days, and you're fine today, why don't you sleep a little longer?"

Since the young lady fell into the water, she likes to sleep late the most.

Xia Keyu got up on his own, and signaled Qing Ya to dress himself.

Qing Ya over there hurriedly picked out a festive crimson Four-Happy Ruyi dress from the closet.

Seeing this, Xia Keyu shook his head and said, "It's too gorgeous, change to a simple one."

Qing Ya didn't know what to do, but she still chose a moon-white outer jacket and a light-colored skirt.

Xia Keyu was urging Qing Ya to comb her hair when she heard the sound of someone walking in the yard.

After a while, Qiuyue walked in.

Seeing this, Xia Keyu hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"

Qiuyue hesitated again and again, but still said: "Miss, the person who reported the funeral just now, He Zi'an, the youngest son of Taipu Siqing, went there last night."

This matter was within Xia Keyu's expectation, she hurriedly urged Qing Ya to comb her hair quickly, Mu Xueshan definitely needs someone's support now.

Seeing this, Qiuyue on the side persuaded:
"Miss, didn't you stop contacting that Miss Mu before? I see that Miss Mu is a Kefu woman. It's better for you to have less contact with this kind of woman."
