Chapter 851 Very charming

"Go get someone ready to wash up, oh no, I want to take a shower."

"Ah, so early in the morning?"

"Well, can't we take a shower early in the morning?" Xie Ying asked.

Mingzhu pouted, "Miss has never taken a shower so early in the morning."

"That's because I took a shower and went to the academy."

"Oh, all right. I'll go right away."

Mingzhu quickly put on her coat, tidied herself up and went to make arrangements.

Xie Ying took a bath and had breakfast before going to the Imperial Women's Prison.

When I arrived at the National Women's Prison and had just finished cleaning the dormitory, it was time for lunch.

Mingzhu said, "I'll go and bring it back for the young lady."

Just as Xie Ying refused, she heard Jian Wu's voice, "Miss Mingzhu..."

Mingzhu was stunned and hurried out, "Master Jianwu, why are you here?"

"The prince asked us to have dinner together at Gezhizhai." Jianwu reported truthfully.

"Then wait for me to ask the lady." Mingzhu came back after saying that.

Xie Ying had heard it all. She was eager to have lunch with Xiao Chen, and they also had some things to discuss.

Mingzhu saw that the eldest lady had stood up, "Did the eldest lady hear everything?"

"Well, let's go to Gezhizhai. You can go to the dining hall. I can go there by myself."

Mingzhu nodded, "Then if the Second Miss asks, I will tell the truth."

Xie Ying nodded, "Okay."

With these words, the master and servant walked out of the house.

Jian Wu clasped his fists and said, "Meet Miss Xie."

Xie Ying nodded slightly, walked lightly with lotus steps, and went to Gezhizhai.

Mingzhu, Jianwu and Xie Ying walked for a while and then went their separate ways when they reached the dining hall.

When passing by the lotus pond, Xie Ying subconsciously glanced at Xinglinzhai. It seemed that Qing Changan had not returned yet.

Thinking of this, she breathed a sigh of relief.

From a distance, she saw Xiao Chen coming towards her. When they were face to face, Xie Ying blushed, "Brother Chen, would it be bad if other students saw this?"

"You and I are an engaged couple, so I don't think there should be any problem." Even if someone is ignorant and wants to gossip about you, you still have to think about it.

Xie Ying said "Oh".

Xiao Chen continued: "The food has been prepared."

"Oh."

Why do you keep saying that?

Xiao Chen himself didn't know what was wrong with him. Whenever he saw Ah Ying, he would remember that she had asked him to climb through the window last night, and then she would throw herself into his arms and hug his waist.

Also, he kissed her on the lips.

Even though his memory was already blurry, he still remembered the electric shock-like feeling when their soft lips touched, and he simply didn't know how to describe it.

The two entered the house, and Xie Ying saw something strange on the table. "Why is there steamed fish? This doesn't look like food from a catering office."

"There are also duck pear cakes and eight-treasure treasures..." These should be the dishes in the restaurants outside.

Xiao Chen nodded, "Let Jian Wu bring it back."

Xie Ying pursed her lips, eating a meal so delicately, "No wonder, I like to eat."

The dishes that Xie Yunchu mentioned were indeed useful. He picked up some of each dish for Xie Ying.

Xie Ying looked at Xiao Chen's calm way of picking up food. They looked like an old married couple who had known each other for several years. This scene was just like her and Qing in her dream.

No, why did I think of Qing Changan again!

Xie Ying wanted to slap himself in the face.

"What's wrong?" Don't you like these dishes?

Xiao Chen didn't know what she was thinking, so when he saw her frowning, he asked in confusion.

Xie Ying shook his head and quickly picked up his chopsticks, "I like it, how could I not like it."

Afterwards, there was only the sound of dishes and chopsticks colliding, and no one spoke. Xie Ying was almost full.

Although having a meal with someone you love is a very happy thing, it seems too quiet. "Brother Chen."

"Ok?"

The young man immediately raised his eyes and looked at her.

"Then what about our agreement?" Since Jian Wu was not here, it was just the two of them.

She just wanted to spend more time with Xiao Chen, and she should never dream of that dream again in her life!

Xiao Chen put down his bowl and chopsticks. He knew what Xie Ying was talking about. "It might be difficult to handle it in the academy."

"That--"

"How about going back to Xie Mansion?"

"Every day?"

Xiao Chen nodded.

It takes at least half an hour to walk from Xie’s house to the academy, and an hour to go there and back.

If that's the case, I won't even be able to attend the review classes in the evening.

Xiao Chen said: "Although I have never participated in the imperial examination, I have a lot of files in my hands that I can bring back for your reference."

The same goes for studying at home.

Xie Ying felt a surge of excitement in his heart.

She even wondered what it would be like to review lessons with Xiao Chen.

However, if I want to review my lessons, I have to light a lamp, and if I want to light a lamp, I can't hide it from Mingzhu.

Mingzhu was her personal maid, so it was easy to talk to her, but she felt a little hesitant to speak.

As Xie Ying was thinking, she suddenly realized that Xiao Chen had been looking at her. Then she realized that she hadn't answered yet. "Oh, then, thank you, Brother Chen."

Xiao Chen smiled and said nothing.

Xie Ying had also finished her meal. After putting down her bowl and chopsticks, she naturally went to look at the kang. Sure enough, the sachet and pillow that Xie Shanxiang had given her were no longer on it.

When she turned around, she found Xiao Chen cleaning up the dishes. Then she realized that Xiao Chen did a lot of things by himself.

Now Jianwu is not here, Mingzhu is not here either——

"I, let me do it." Xie Ying walked over and just as he stretched out his hand, he was held by the young man's big hand.

"I'll take care of these things."

"I can do it." Xie Ying insisted.

"You have been served since you were born. You have never done these things in the Duke's Mansion, so you don't need to learn them."

Xie Ying opened her mouth, "But..." She looked at Xiao Chen and still remembered what Xiao Chen had told her before, that they had different living habits.

She is a typical person who just sits there and waits for food and clothing to be provided for her.

Xiao Chen has been training outside for so many years and has always been a self-sufficient person.

Xiao Chen smiled, and gently touched the girl's forehead with his bent index finger, "If you marry me and still have to give in to me in everything, I will be ashamed."

Xie Ying pursed her lips. She was just pretending...

"Didn't you see them when you were in the palace? There is a nanny and two little girls. They will take good care of you in the future."

Xie Ying blushed.

It turned out that he had already planned how they would live after getting married.

"I saw."

Xiao Chen smiled, and continued to put the dishes into the lunch box, then took out the rag in an orderly manner and wiped the table until it was shiny.

Xie Ying followed behind Xiao Chen, watching him do these things, and she felt an indescribable feeling in her heart, "Brother Chen, you are really amazing."

Xiao Chen turned around and looked at her, "You think you're great just by doing these?"

"Well, I've never seen men do these things." Even the servants in the house did the rough and heavy work. Sweeping the floor, wiping the table, clearing the dishes and washing the dishes were always done by maids and old women.

Of course, Xiao Chen didn’t finish washing.

That’s because there was no hot water in Gezhizhai, otherwise, would he be able to wash the dishes?

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Xiao Chen asked.

Xie Ying pursed her lips, "I feel that when you do these things, you are not as useless as others say, but rather very charming." Calm, indifferent, and self-respecting.
