Chapter 852 You Have No Chance to Regret
Xiao Chen smiled, knowing what she was thinking, "There is no rule about who should do these things."
Xie Ying said: "A gentleman should stay away from the kitchen. This saying has a long history. What do you think, brother Chen?"
"Crooked."
Xie Ying saw Xiao Chen laughing, and she laughed too, "I think so too."
Seeing how calm he was, she even wondered if she could also do something within her ability?
Being taken care of by Mingzhu every day, she felt like a waste.
"I heard that among ordinary couples, it is the woman who does these things." Xie Ying continued.
"you're right."
Xiao Chen thought back to the years when he was traveling. Except for those families with slaves, all the families, whether poor or slightly wealthy, were responsible for these tasks.
"Nowadays, women can do business and work, but these things are still done by women." Xie Ying's tone sounded a little discouraged.
“The world will change.”
"What will it become?" Xie Ying thought to himself, how many people like Brother Chen are there in this world?
He is now His Royal Highness the Prince of Chen, second only to the emperor and above everyone else. He can handle these trivial matters with ease.
Xiao Chen had already packed up and poured Xie Ying a cup of tea. Then the two of them sat on the kang, one on each side. "What men can do, women can do too, and what women can do, men can do too."
"This is what the emperor expects to see," said Xie Ying.
Xiao Chen smiled and said, "Perhaps, every girl who wants to get married in the future hopes for this."
Xie Ying nodded solemnly, took a sip of tea and placed it on the stool, "Hmm."
At least that's what she would think.
Let’s not talk about this anymore, let’s get back to the point, “Then I will go back to the Duke’s Mansion from now on, Brother Chen must keep the appointment on time.”
"Ah."
Seeing him agree easily, Xie Ying was very happy. At this time, Xiao Chen looked out the window and frowned slightly.
Xie Ying also turned his head and looked back, and unexpectedly saw Qing Chang'an walking towards the lotus pond. He had also returned to the academy.
Xiao Chen said: "He should know the news that you are back to the academy."
"I--"
After a pause, Xie Ying couldn't help but frown. If she was dreaming about something like this, someone really did it on purpose...
Is it Qing Changan?
Why did he do this and how did he do it?
Xie Ying is looking at Qing Chang'an, and Xiao Chen is looking at Xie Ying.
He saw that her brows were visibly wrinkled, and that there was no disgust in her expression towards Qing Chang'an, but more of entanglement and compassion.
"Aying."
"Huh?" Xie Ying turned around and looked at Xiao Chen. What happened?
Xiao Chen asked, "If I do something that only scoundrels would do, it might lead to trouble in the long run."
Xie Ying pursed her lips. Yes, if someone finds out and tells others...
However, in the Duke's Mansion, people inside should not dare to gossip about others, but this is indeed a bit -
"I told you before about the incident after the winter solstice."
That thing after the winter solstice?
Xie Ying knew that he meant that the days after the winter solstice would be good, "Okay, OK."
"You, you agreed?"
"Yes, agreed."
Xiao Chen breathed a sigh of relief. As long as she agreed, he would slowly make A Ying love and like him completely in the future.
Xie Ying saw that he seemed calm, but in fact his red ears showed his excitement. Xie Ying said mischievously, "I said I would be responsible for you."
Xiao Chen: “…”
He didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Well, then I thank Aying."
Xie Ying bit her lip and nodded, "You're welcome. This is what I should do."
"Then I'll go back. I have to go to Minglun Hall soon." Studies cannot be neglected.
However, Xie Ying suddenly remembered, "Brother Chen is afraid that it will be too late and I will regret it?"
Xiao Chen didn't answer. Aying was so cute for asking in a playful and mischievous way even though she knew the answer.
Xie Ying continued, "For example, next month, the beginning of autumn or something like that?"
Xiao Chen said: "That won't work."
"Why?"
"I can't delay your participation in the scientific examination."
"I'm not even a student now, and you're so sure I can do it?"
"What I believe in is the ability of the clan school." Aying has been studying in the clan school since he was a child. He has a good foundation and there is always hope.
Xie Ying took a deep breath and looked at Xiao Chen, "If we get married, I still have to take the imperial examinations. Will that be inconvenient?"
"No, when the time comes, we will just find someone we can trust to take care of the affairs of the mansion." Getting married does not mean raising her like a canary.
It's about two souls in love spending a short life together.
Xiao Chen knew that she was asking, if they got married, would it be inappropriate for her, as the mistress, to not take care of the affairs of the mansion?
If I were to do that, I might not have enough time to prepare for the scientific examination.
"In short, just do whatever you want to do. I'm here to take care of the rest." Xiao Chen said.
"Ah."
She felt her heart was free and the air she breathed was sweet.
Xie Ying asked: "Brother Chen, is it true that no matter what I do, you won't think it's bad, and you won't think I'm - frivolous and shameless."
Xiao Chen was stunned. "If you are only nice to me, then no." If you are only nice to him, then no.
Xie Ying stood up, walked to Xiao Chen, sat behind him, and then hugged him from behind with her bare hands.
The young man's waist tightened, and his breathing became disordered instantly, "Aying."
"Well, we have hugged each other anyway."
"I--"
"Brother Chen, don't you like Aying's hug?"
"I, I like it." His face turned red and his voice was hoarse.
Xie Ying was very happy and she leaned her head on the young man's back.
After a long time, Xiao Chen's heartbeat finally calmed down. He was flustered by the feeling of his blood boiling.
His big hand covered the girl's bare hand. He understood her intentions. "I will go to the emperor to discuss the wedding date."
"Ah."
"You must regret it."
Xie Ying smiled and said, "The Emperor has granted the marriage, and his words are binding. There is no possibility of taking back the order. How dare A Ying joke with Brother Chen and the Emperor?"
Xiao Chen carried her on his back and said with a smile, "You won't have a chance to regret it."
"Yes, I am responsible for Brother Chen." She smiled, "As long as Brother Chen protects me, those dreams will become a thing of the past."
Those dreams——
Those dreams are really awful!
"Yeah." He would protect her and never let her be troubled by those dreams.
Xie Ying also felt that without the troubles of those dreams, she felt much more relaxed.
"I have to go to Minglun Hall." Time flies, and it is time to go to Minglun Hall to study.
Xiao Chen thought that Qing Changan might still be waiting in Xinglinzhai, "I'll take you there."
"what……"
"Ah."
"This will make others see——"
"If anyone sees me, I'm only sending my fiancée to Minglun Hall. If anyone disagrees, let him come find me."
"I guess no one dares to come to you."
Xiao Chen smiled, and the two of them let go of each other's hands tacitly as they walked out of the house. They walked side by side, talking and laughing.
