The Young Master of the Chamberlain's Family

☆ 13. Going out

Going out

The next day, at noon.

The sky was bright, the sun was hidden behind the treetops, the clouds were red, and the corrugated bricks and stones of the Xu Mansion were also stained with a touch of golden red.

"Shh, shhh." Xu Anheng listened to the sound of the maid sweeping the yard outside, lying on his back on the bed in a trance. He was a little late to sleep yesterday, and he was still a little unclear now. His mind was still unconsciously thinking about all kinds of things. In the end, there were only two things left in his mind. One was that he didn't know what to eat this morning, and the other was how Zheng Qingyan, who was sleeping in the yard next to him, was doing.

After thinking about it for a while, he was more awake, and he didn't want to lie down again. He got up and washed up and went to Changleyuan.

Along the way, he couldn't help but think of what his mother said to him last night. He thought it was just that the two mistresses were on good terms, and the Zheng couple had something to do and couldn't take care of their son, so they let him stay at their home for a while. Unexpectedly, they had to go to the battlefield and had to raise the child at their home.

Looking at the courtyard getting closer and closer, Xu Anheng's eyes appeared in front of his little brother's pitiful face crying last night. Thinking of his mother's words and worried look when she rubbed his little head and told him to take good care of his brother last night, a smile appeared on his face. He knew his mother was a little worried that he would be worried that his parents would be partial to him because there was a child younger than him in the family, but he really didn't have such thoughts. Not to mention that he was actually a teenager inside, so he wouldn't be upset because of this. Just because Zheng Qingyan was cute and well-behaved, he was willing to get along with him. Moreover, he was young and had a good personality. He was willing to follow him into the kitchen, which was considered dirty by the children of officials. He was not arrogant and domineering at all. He was facing him now, just like an old father looking at his own good child. If there were no distinction between men and boys, he really wanted to kiss the child's white and tender face.

"Brother, good morning"

Xu Anheng was just thinking about the soft touch of the little brother's face, and the next moment, the little brother jumped in front of him.

"Good morning, Qingyan, how did you sleep last night?" Xu Anheng asked, looking at his fair and rosy face.

Zheng Qingyan held Xu Anheng's hand, and rubbed the corner of his eye with the back of his other hand, muttering: "My eyes are uncomfortable, a little painful."

The child's skin is delicate, and the skin at the corner of his eye turned red after being rubbed like this. Xu Anheng hurriedly grabbed Zheng Qingyan's hand and took a look.

"It's okay," Xu Anheng breathed a sigh of relief, "You must have cried for a while last night, and your eyes are a little uncomfortable. Just apply a hot towel later."

Zheng Qingyan's ears turned red quietly, nodded shyly, and said ok.

When the two children walked hand in hand to the dining hall, Mrs. Xu was already waiting there. Seeing them come in, she hugged them one by one, and asked the kitchen to serve breakfast.

Most of the breakfasts in the Xu family are light. This morning they had yam millet porridge and buns stuffed with shepherd's purse and shrimp.

The buns were filled with a lot of stuffing and had a thin skin. The shepherd's purse inside was fresh and fragrant, and wrapped with the sweet shrimp, the steamed buns were extremely delicious.
