Chapter 117: Farewell

The next day, Wen Jiaojiao got up earlier than usual. It was early, but she didn't stay in bed as usual.

Yuzhu, who got up early, was a little surprised to see Wen Jiaojiao getting up instead of staying in bed.

"Miss, why are you up?"

Yuzhu saw that Wen Jiaojiao really had no intention of continuing to sleep, so he brought her clothes and helped her dress and wash.

When Fengxin came in and saw Wen Jiaojiao, he deliberately said "Oh!", looked at the door, and said, "Did the sun come out from the west today? Or am I dazzled?"

Wen Jiaojiao picked up a soft pillow and threw it towards Fengxin, "Fengxin, you are getting more and more courageous. You dare to laugh at me."

Feng Xin casually caught the soft pillow thrown by Wen Jiao Jiao and said with a smile: "Feng Xin didn't dare. It's just that the young lady slept well last night. She must have had some sweet dreams, so she got up early today.

.”

After that, fearing that Wen Jiaojiao would become angry again, he ran outside to get hot water for Wen Jiaojiao to wash his face.

Wen Jiaojiao stretched out. She did sleep well yesterday. Thinking of what happened last night, Wen Jiaojiao's face couldn't help but heat up again.

"I think the second young master is going back to Yunzhou today, so the lady got up so early."

Hearing Yuzhu's words, Wen Jiaojiao was stunned, "Second brother is going back to Yunzhou?"

Yuzhu paused the hand that was combing Wen Jiaojiao's hair: "Yes, I see that the carriages and horses outside have been prepared. Probably after having lunch with the lady again, the second young master will set off. Don't you know, lady?"

She really didn't know. Brother Xiao didn't tell her yesterday, nor did her uncle and aunt.

Although Brother Xiao had planned to celebrate the New Year in Yunzhou before, this time he returned to the capital because of the assassination and other incidents, so he planned to spend the New Year in the capital. Why did he suddenly have to leave again.

After Wen Jiaojiao washed up and had breakfast, he wanted to go find Brother Xiao, but the steward Yongshu said that he had entered the palace early in the morning and seemed to have to report some matters to his shift.

Brother Xiao didn't come back until lunch time. At the dinner table, Wen Jiaojiao looked at Xiao Xuan'an and asked: "Brother, why are you suddenly going back to Yunzhou? The New Year is coming soon. Isn't Brother Second in the capital celebrating the New Year?"

?”

Xiao Xuanan's hand holding the vegetables paused slightly, and he smiled slightly: "I have some important things to do in Yunzhou, I will..."

"Ahem!"

Xiao Xuan'an looked at the look in his eyes from his eldest father Xiao Yan, swallowed the bitterness in his heart, and changed his words: "It's probably the New Year's Eve in Yunzhou, and I will send someone to give you a gift when the time comes for your hairpin gift."

Wen Jiaojiao nodded and said: "Second brother's matter is the most important. It's just a hairpin ceremony. Just do whatever you want. If I can go to Yunzhou, it will be Yunzhou to visit my second brother and third brother."

A wry smile appeared on Xiao Xuanan's lips: "Okay."

Wen Jiaojiao always felt that something was not right with Brother Xiao today, but he couldn't say what was wrong.

After lunch, Wen Jiaojiao was preparing to see Xiao Xuan'an out of the city. By the way, he took a look at Que Wu. He must be expecting him to see her off.

She could just stand on the wall and let him take a look.

Xiao Yan looked at Wen Jiaojiao who was following her, stopped her and said, "Jiaojiao, it's snowing heavily outside and the cold wind is blowing, so don't go out. Your second brother has been traveling back and forth to Yunzhou these years, so there's no need to send him off."

Wen Jiaojiao looked at Xiao Xuanan and turned to look at her. His eyes were not looking at her with a gentle smile as usual, but with a trace of indescribable bitterness and reluctance, as if he wanted to say goodbye to her.

Wen Jiaojiao's heart skipped a beat and she said to Xiao Yan: "Uncle, I'm wearing very warm clothes. I have nothing to do. I'll go out to see my second brother off and take a walk outside."

With that said, Wen Jiaojiao followed Xiao Yan without waiting for him to express his position.

Xiao Yan wanted to say something else, but Mei Shiniang grabbed him and said, "That's enough for you. Why not let Jiao Jiao give him away? Xuan An is already suffering enough, so don't torture him anymore."

Xiao Yan: "Am I torturing him? If you don't stop, you will suffer chaos. I am helping him!"

Even though he said this, Xiao Yan did not stop them anymore.

Mei Shiniang said: "He is already twenty, he knows how to do it."

Xiao Yan sighed, "Xuan'an is good at everything, but he is too affectionate. He is fine when it comes to other things, but if it is the person he loves, he doesn't know what to do. The Xiao family is like this."

Speaking of this, the couple looked at each other and both thought of their daughter Qingyu. She had been trapped by the word "love" for half her life, and she would probably be trapped in it for the rest of her life, even if the person was dead.

"Second brother! Wait for me, I'll see you off!"

As soon as Xiao Xuanan got on his horse, he saw Wen Jiaojiao running out of the Xiao Mansion.

"Yue'er, it's too cold outside, please go back quickly."

Wen Jiaojiao ran to Xiao Xuanan and stretched out her hand to him, "I'm wearing thick clothes so I don't feel cold. I'll give it to you, second brother."

Xiao Xuanan looked at Wen Jiaojiao's hand, just like when she was a child, she reached out to her and asked him to take her to ride a horse.

Xiao Xuanan sighed softly in his heart, jumped off the horse, carried Wen Jiaojiao to the horse, and got on the horse again.

Xiao Xuanan was about to ask someone to prepare another carriage to take her back later. Wen Jiaojiao said: "No need, second brother, I will go out for a stroll later. If you leave, I will have nothing to do if I stay alone in the house."

Do."

Xiao Xuanan: "That's fine. If I'm not here during the day, you and Yuzhu should come out more often to get some fresh air."

After saying that, Xiao Xuanan pulled the reins and headed towards the city gate.

When passing by Qi Mansion, Wen Jiaojiao happened to see Qi Yao and Qi Shuo, two siblings, holding horses at the door, looking as if they were going somewhere to play.

"Hey, it's sister Jiaojiao and brother Xiao!"

Qi Yao saw them and waved to them excitedly, "Brother Jiao Jiao Xiao, where are you going?"

Wen Jiaojiao replied: "Second brother is going back to Yunzhou, I will see him off."

When Qi Shuo saw Wen Jiaojiao, he immediately looked happy and said, "That's just right. A Yao and I have nothing to do, so we should also send Young Master Xiao off."

After saying that, before the two of them could speak, Qi Shuo got on his horse and rode up to them, followed by Qi Yao.

Xiao Xuan'an felt angry when he saw Qi Shuo, who was sticking to the moon with dog-skin plaster, and ran forward with a cold expression.

Qi Yao and Qi Shuo followed closely beside them on horseback.

Qi Yao was a talkative person and kept talking in their ears. Wen Jiaojiao would reply from time to time. Qi Shuo's eyes were always staring at Wen Jiaojiao. When Wen Jiaojiao turned around, he could see Qi Shuo looking at her.

The look that cannot take his eyes off.

Xiao Xuan'an looked at Qi Shuo's infatuated state and thought to himself that his aunt and father wanted to allocate Jiao Jiao to this silly boy, right?

Xiao Xuan'an looked at Qi Shuo and felt that he was not good at anything, but his face was just barely enough.

But whether it was a face-to-face comparison or another comparison, he couldn't lose to Qi Shuo at all.

Although Qi Shuo is the heir apparent and has a high status, he is not worthy of Yue'er at all.

Although Xiao Xuan'an was dissatisfied with Qi Shuo, seeing Wen Jiaojiao's reaction to Qi Shuo, he didn't have any affection for him at all, which made him feel a little relieved.
