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

Chapter 59 Freedom and Respect

Chu Chu didn't understand these twists and turns of the royal family. She only knew that Prince Xiaoyao was unwilling to help her.

Chu Chu couldn't help but recall the scenes she had seen.

In the picture, the men who regard her as a treasure all look very wealthy and powerful, and they also have a bit of domineering power that belongs to those in power.

She, Chu Chu, is not indispensable to Prince Xiaoyao.

So Chu Chu turned around and left without a trace of nostalgia.

Looking at Chu Chu's resolute departure, Prince Xiaoyao frowned and hesitated.

That's all, respect her and give her freedom.

He understands.

——

Listening to the bamboo garden, Xue Shu finally tasted the sweet-scented osmanthus cake that she had been thinking about for half a month. The familiar taste filled her eyes with every bite, and she was so moved that she almost shed tears.

At this moment, Qingyu also came over.

Although the master said she could sleep a little longer, Qingyu, as a competent little envoy, did not indulge herself.

Just as she lay on the bed for a few more cups of tea, she got up quickly and came straight here.

She came just in time to catch up with the freshly baked sweet-scented osmanthus cake and got a piece of it.

When it comes to eating pastries, her taste is very different from Xue Shu's.

Xue Shu can't eat anything too sweet, but Qingyu is different. She loves sweet food most, and Xue Shu's taste is too bland for her.

So Qingyu symbolically swallowed one, and then began to serve his master with peace of mind.

Xue Shu was eating sweet-scented osmanthus cake, and she served Xue Shu some tea to prevent her from choking.

Qingyu has always been unable to calm down, especially her mouth, which is always restless: "I heard that Miss Qin has been severely tortured these days. I don't know what means Mrs. Qin used to really torture her."

Miss Qin is kept at home, learning piano, chess, calligraphy and painting every day... Tsk, tsk, tsk, I heard that Miss Qin is haggard."

Thinking of Qin Xiang's haggard appearance, Xue Shu couldn't help but burst into laughter.

She really wanted to see with her own eyes what a person who was always lively and energetic looked like when he looked haggard.

She has not seen Qin Xiang since the last garden party.

Even though it didn't take long, I was inexplicably panicked.

"The winter solstice is coming soon, go and send a message and invite Xiang'er to come home to have shabu-shabu." By the way, he also told her to take it easy.

Qin Xiang is not the type to coexist peacefully with Qin, Qi, calligraphy and painting, and he doesn't know how he has been suppressed at home these days.

"Shabu-shabu!" Qingyu's eyes suddenly brightened.

She seemed to see a copper pot right in front of her.

The copper pot was bubbling, and various slices of vegetables and meat were rolling happily in it. The smell...

Qingyu giggled twice, and there seemed to be a hint of sparkle at the corner of her mouth.

Xue Shu pushed her face aside with some disgust.

"When eating shabu-shabu, isn't it more fun when there are more people?" Xue Chen, who was playing chess, suddenly interrupted, "Shu'er, aren't you going to invite me?"

He was also greedy.

Now that the weather is getting colder, it's the perfect time for a group of people to get together and chat and drink around a warm pot.

There was no chance before, but now Xue Chen will not miss any opportunity to get close to his sister.

"Okay!" Xue Shu rolled her eyes and asked one more question, "Is Young Master Jing coming?"

Xue Shu thought very simply. Jing Xing was already as good as his brother, and now he lived in Tingzhuyuan for a long time. The two of them ate and drank together. If Xue Chen came and didn't invite Jing Xing, he would inevitably shout.

Jing Xing felt unhappy.

Besides, she will still count on Jing Xing in the future, and now of course she must seize every opportunity to get closer to him.

No one else knows what she is thinking.

When Xue Chen heard that his sister wanted to invite another man, his face suddenly darkened, and his men's attack became more fierce, and he directly killed Jing Xing, who was already at a disadvantage.

Jing Xing took a look and realized that this chess game could no longer be played.

So Jing Xing threw the chess pieces back into the chess basket very coolly and said with a smile: "Thank you very much, Miss Xue, for your hospitality!"

He has already lost the chess game, how can he do it without taking a few bites of the good stuff?

His injured little heart also needs comfort, right?

No one paid attention to Xue Chen's increasingly gloomy expression. Xue Shu had even started discussing the menu with Qing Yu.

Mutton is definitely a must. Cut a large piece of frozen mutton into thin slices, dip it into the boiling water with chopsticks, and then dip it in the fragrant sauce...

I can’t help but drool just thinking about it!

Except for the mutton, personal tastes have to be taken into account for the rest. Qingyu has always been careful and thoughtful, so Xue Shu is relieved to leave these matters to her.

"Then this slave will go to Fanlou to order ingredients this afternoon!" Qingyu could no longer sit still.

As the largest restaurant in Beijing, the quality of Fanlou's ingredients is absolutely guaranteed, and eating shabu-shabu in cold weather is also a trend in Beijing. If you go there late, you won't be able to order anything.

Xue Shu smiled lightly, nodded and let her go.

——

Chu Chu was so angry that she ran out of Prince Heng's palace and wandered aimlessly on the street.

She is not from the capital, and although she has followed Prince Xiaoyao to many places during these times, she is so down and out now, where can she go to a place where people come and go and make her look embarrassed?

So she straightened her back and wandered near Prince Heng's Mansion, waiting for Prince Xiaoyao to come out to find her.

She had already planned in her heart that as long as Prince Xiaoyao said a few soft words, she would give him face and not be angry with him anymore.

It's getting cold now, and night has come earlier. Fortunately, Chu Chu's clothes are gorgeous, with three layers inside and three outside, so she doesn't feel cold now.

But slowly, my heart became a little cold——

It was completely dark, but there was no movement at all in Prince Heng's palace.

Chu Chu turned her head and looked at Prince Heng's Mansion not far away, with a trace of anger flashing in her eyes.

Prince Xiaoyao once said that he really liked her and would treat her wholeheartedly.

You really like her, but you just let her roam the streets? It’s dark and you don’t know how to come out to look for her?

What kind of person likes this!

Who is good to her?

Chu Chu bit her lip, shook her head for the last time, and went to Jinyu Street.

There are many inns near Jinyu Street, and the environment of any shop opened in such a place is not bad.

As for money, Chu Chu didn't have any on her, but a random accessory on her body would be enough to mortgage the rent for several days.

In Prince Heng's Mansion, Prince Xiaoyao had just finished writing a piece of writing. He looked out the window at the deep sky and called the guards: "Miss Chu hasn't come back yet?"

The guard bowed his hands and said in a respectful tone: "Yes, do you want me to send someone to look for you?"

Prince Xiaoyao frowned.

This put him in a bit of trouble.

Don't look for it, he doesn't feel at ease.

Go find it, he was worried that Chuchu felt that he didn't like her enough.

After all, Chu Chu said that if you really like someone, you must give that person enough space. This is true love.

So in the end, Prince Xiaoyao waved his hand and told the man to retreat.

Prince Xiaoyao sat quietly in the study for a while, went out to have dinner, and then returned to the study to read.

It wasn't until the night got darker that Prince Xiaoyao got tired of watching, so he pinched his brows and called the guards again: "Is Miss Chu back?"

"not yet."

"What time is it?"

"It's been decided by humans."

Prince Xiaoyao frowned again.

No, even if Chu Chu misunderstood him, he still had to find someone.

It's not that he can't trust Chu Chu, but it's not safe for a girl to stay out all night.

So Prince Xiaoyao ordered someone to hitch a carriage and go straight to the inn where Chu Chu was.

Prince Xiaoyao never took the initiative to ask about Chu Chu's whereabouts, but the servants in the mansion were so clear-minded that even if the master didn't say anything, he would always pay attention to what should be paid attention to.

Under their careful attention, Chu Chu's trajectory was transparent, and only Prince Xiaoyao didn't know about it.
