Become a burden in a period novel

Chapter 261 Xie Family

"Since you're here, come in and have a glass of water." Xie Chengxuan didn't care much when he saw what Qin Wangshu brought.

He knew that Qin Wangshu used to do business with the black market there, so she was not short of money and these things were nothing to her.

But they were already at his doorstep, so how could he let her put down her things and leave?

"No need, I told Grandma Cen that I would go back for dinner." Qin Wangshu remembered how difficult the hero's mother was in the original novel.

Although her opinion of the male protagonist has changed now, she doesn't think she will have any intersection with the male protagonist's mother, so it's better not to go in.

Qin Wangshu came here this time just to invite Xie Chengxuan, and he brought things with him because it would be inappropriate to come empty-handed.

"But you've already reached the door, how can you not even drink a sip of water?"

"Okay, don't be polite. I'm leaving first. Remember to come over when the time comes!" She had just told him the time and place of Yang Mingye's treat, and Xie Chengxuan also said that he had time, so that was fine.

The matter is over, why go to his house?

She was just an educated youth who went to the same countryside as Xie Chengxuan. Even if the male protagonist saved her now, they could only be considered ordinary friends.

If they were seen arriving, others would definitely gossip, and Qin Wangshu was sure that Xie Chengxuan's family should be at home, otherwise he would not have made such a formal invitation.

If he was alone at home, she would probably go in, but now that his family was there, it was impossible for her to go in.

"Take the food in. Eat the fruits and other things as soon as possible. They won't be kept for long. I'll be leaving first." Qin Wangshu said, and turned to leave.

Xie Chengxuan tried to stop him, but Qin Wangshu walked so fast that he couldn't stop him.

"Xiao Xie, your friend is really interesting." The guard was standing at the door and naturally saw what they were doing together.

"Yeah, it's quite interesting." Xie Chengxuan picked up the bag on the ground. It was heavier than he had imagined.

"Uncle Li, I'll get you an orange, you can try it too." Xie Chengxuan took out a yellow orange from the bag. As soon as the orange was taken out, he smelled a very fresh orange scent.

Qin Wangshu was always able to get fresh fruit, so next time he would ask her if she could get some for him. His mother had not had a good appetite recently and wanted to eat these.

"Okay, then I'll take advantage of you."

Seeing the guard take the oranges, Xie Chengxuan walked inside with the bag.

"You're back? Who was looking for you just now?" Xie Chengxuan, who had just opened the door, saw his mother sitting on the sofa in the living room.

"A friend." Xie Chengxuan put aside what he was holding.

"Why don't you let them come in and sit down?" Although Xie's mother had some power, she still did a good job of pretending.

"She said she had an appointment at noon and wouldn't come in."

"Oh," Xie's mother was quite self-aware and looked at the bag that Xie Chengxuan placed over there.

"Any fruit?"

"Well, let me wash an apple for you." Xie Chengxuan said and went over to take out an apple to give to Xie's mother.

"This fruit looks good. Ask your friend where he bought it and buy some back from him."

"Okay." Xie Chengxuan just picked out the best-looking one and was about to take it to wash.

"Well, wash one more and let your dad try it too." Xie's mother came over and prepared to take the things and let Xie Chengxuan go to get busy.
