After rebirth, the female supporting role only wanted to have a grand funeral

Chapter 24 Salesian Bureau

The injuries on Xue Shu's face have completely healed. After calculating the time, she has been bored in this Marquis Mansion for half a month. It's time to go out for a walk.

So Xue Shu asked Lu Yingyuan to tell Mrs. Zhenbeihou, while she took the little sister's hand and took Qingyu with her. The three of them happily left the Houfu and went straight to Jinyu Street.

On the way, Qin Xiang didn't stop for a moment, telling her about the new things in the capital in the past half month: "Do you still remember the Chu girl that Prince Xiaoyao brought to the capital?"

"Remember." Even if it turns into ashes, I can't forget it.

"Prince Xiaoyao likes her and wants her to integrate into the circle of the capital as soon as possible, and then arranges for her to have an identity that can match the prince. But guess what? Prince Xiaoyao is a grown man, and he actually takes Miss Chu to and from the female family members himself.

"The banquet," Qin Xiang said, and clicked his tongue twice, "What a prince, but now he has almost become a joke in the capital, but that Miss Chu doesn't think it's anything, and always dresses up every time she attends.

She was so ostentatious that she stole the limelight from her master, and naturally, she also offended everyone."

"Huh?" Xue Shu raised her eyebrows, a little surprised.

The reason why Chu Chu in the previous life could successfully integrate into the circle of the capital was because Prince Xiaoyao was walking around in the capital.

At that time, everyone in the capital said that Prince Xiaoyao was infatuated, so how could Yi Shuier's compliments become a joke?

It's really unbelievable.

"You don't even know that no matter whose banquet she goes to, that Miss Chu always wears all white, as if attending a funeral. I think, if it weren't for Prince Xiaoyao's reputation, there would probably be many families in the same family.

I won’t even ask her to come in!”

Forget about wearing all white, that Miss Chu especially likes to wear a curtain hat to cover her face, and suddenly she becomes white from head to toe. No matter how well-mannered she is, she can't withstand such stimulation.

In short, in the past half month, Prince Xiaoyao has been running around with Chu Chu, and many people have attended various banquets, but no one is willing to take them to play, and they are left alone every time. I don't want Chu Chu to be full of talents.

There is no chance to display it.

Seeing that Chu Chu was having a hard time, Xue Shu became so happy that she couldn't hold back the smile on her face.

Qin Xiang just thought that she had been bored in the Hou Mansion for too long and was so happy that she didn't feel surprised and turned to look out the window.

"Hey - look, isn't that Chu Chu? And...isn't he Prince Xiaoyao?" Qin Xiang's eyes widened, "Isn't that...the eldest son of Changsheng Hou Mansion?"

Xue Shu also raised her eyes and saw Chu Chuzheng and Sheng Gu, dressed in white, talking and laughing on the street. The two seemed to be forgetting themselves, not paying attention to other people's eyes at all, and their behavior could even be called intimate.

.

It was for Chu Chu that Sheng Gu came to break off the engagement. Xue Shu was not surprised at all that the two of them could be together.

What surprised her was that neither of them knew how to avoid suspicion.

If this matter reaches the ears of Prince Xiaoyao, the prosperous Hou Mansion will only fall faster, and without the identity of the prince of the Hou Mansion, I am afraid that this prosperous story will no longer be able to reach Chu Chu's eyes.

I don’t know what this Sheng Gu, as the heir apparent of the Changsheng Hou Mansion, is thinking about. He only pursues true love and doesn’t even care about his family.

A filial son.

"They don't seem to be here for shopping..." Qin Xiang observed for a while and suddenly said, "How about we follow them and see what they are going to do!"

"Okay." Just as it happened, Xue Shu was also very interested.

The two people were walking, but Xue Shu and Qin Xiang didn't want to walk, so they just sat in the carriage like this. Fortunately, the carriage driver of the Hou Mansion also had some skills, and he stayed far away from the two people in front.

It will neither be lost nor easily discovered.

It wasn't until the two of them turned around and entered a quiet alley that the driver had to tighten the reins: "Girl, if you continue to follow, you will be discovered."

Only then did Xue Shu and Qin Xiang poke their heads out and take a look.

The alley in front of me is quiet, with peeling walls and overgrown moss, with almost no trace of life.

"Where is this?" Xue Shu asked in confusion.

She grew up in the capital, but she didn't know there was such a remote place in it.

"This is Beicheng," the coachman replied respectfully. "There is a Salesian Bureau in this alley, which specializes in adopting orphans who have no father or mother."

It was said that it was the Salesian Bureau, but it was just a few decades ago that a group of widowers, the elderly and the weak occupied an ownerless yard. The Ministry of Works thought they were pitiful, so they simply gave the land to them and wrote a sign to hang it.

Going up there, it just provided them with a place to stay.

There is a limit to what the Ministry of Industry can do, and they still have to find ways to meet daily living expenses themselves.

A few years ago, a prince suddenly noticed this land. He originally wanted to drive away all the old and weak people in it, but for some reason he suddenly changed his mind and took the initiative to provide money to take care of their lives. But then gradually

No more content.

The old men here left one by one, leaving only a group of children who lived by begging.

Xue Shu wanted to ask a few more questions, but Qin Xiang pulled down the curtain and winked at her.

"The people in this place are all lowly. Miss Chu is like a fairy in the clouds, how could she fall into such a muddy place." Outside, Sheng Gu's voice came from far and near.

"Everyone is created equal, so what's so mean and noble? These children are so pitiful. It's a pity that I'm weak and can't help much." This was Chu Chu's voice.

"Miss Chu is kind-hearted and left all the money she had with her, which must be enough for them to survive the winter," Sheng Gu seemed to be sighing, "Miss Chu is delicate, so it's better not to come to places like this."

The two people outside gradually drifted away until no sound could be heard anymore. The driver outside lightly knocked on the side of the carriage twice, and the three girls inside breathed a sigh of relief.

"This Miss Chu is so weird." Qingyu frowned, "Just listening to Miss Chu's footsteps, it feels like she wants to leave this place quickly, but what she said..."

"It's strange enough." Qin Xiang said and looked at Xue Shu again, "Shu'er, let's go down and have a look. I've never been here before!"

"That's fine." Xue Shu nodded, thinking if there was anything she could do to help, this long winter was really hard to endure.

"Girls," the two girls were about to get out of the car, but the coachman stopped the two of them in embarrassment, "I'm not just saying this, but this place is really not suitable for you two to come in and out... To be honest, the children here,

Some of the body parts are incomplete, which may frighten the girl. If the girl is frightened, the villain will die forever."

Xue Shu and Qin Xiang looked at each other and shook their heads: "It's okay. Qingyu, you wait in the car."

She is someone who has lived her entire life, and Qin Xiang has never known what it means to be afraid. Among the three of them, only Qingyu needs to be avoided.

Qingyu wanted to bite the bullet and say that she was not afraid, but when she caught her girl's gaze, she could only shrink her neck and nodded: "Girl, my servant is waiting for you here..."

She knew that if she forced herself in, if something happened, she might have to ask Xue Shu to take care of her, which would be really troublesome.

Seeing that Qingyu was obedient, Xue Shu withdrew her gaze happily, got out of the car with Qin Xiang, and walked towards the Salesian Bureau.
