Young Master Xiang’s condition was stable, so Su Xiaoxiao didn’t stay any longer.
Before leaving, she took two boxes of snacks from the small basket and gave them to him.
“This is... ” Young Master Xiang looked at Su Xiaoxiao in confusion.
Su Xiaoxiao smiled. “It’s going to be New Year’s Eve. I made some snacks myself. I hope you don’t mind.”
Changping glanced at Su Xiaoxiao. This time, he didn’t dare to roll his eyes.
Young Master Xiang accepted it readily. “Miss Su, thank you.”
Actually, how could Su Xiaoxiao have remembered New Year’s Eve? It was just that he had given her too much in consultation fees and for the medicine previously, so she returned a small token of appreciation.
She really had to thank Madam Huang for reminding her about New Year’s Eve.
Although it was not a valuable item, with his status, he did not care about those valuable items at all. Perhaps the treasures he bought with all his assets were not worth mentioning in his eyes.
On the other hand, the snacks she made herself seemed more sincere.
“Why are there two boxes?” Young Master Xiang asked casually.
“One box is yours, and the other is Jing Yi’s,” Su Xiaoxiao said.
“Jing Yi.” Young Master Xiang smiled. “It’s easy for you to call him by his name.”
Su Xiaoxiao spread her hands. “He’s young. What else can he be called?”
Young Master Xiang asked, “Am I very old?”
Huh?
Su Xiaoxiao wondered why he was fussing about this.
“You only said that your surname was Xiang, but you didn’t say the rest of your name!”
“Chonghua,” he said.
“Huh?” Su Xiaoxiao was stunned.
“My name.” He smiled warmly.
The ancient people had surnames, names, and calligraphic words, such as Shen Chuan and Qinghe.
In this dynasty, there did not seem to be a too strict boundary between words and names. It was customary for people of the same generation to call each other names. There was no disrespect.
Scholars were polite and often addressed one another by their surname or name. It was like how a classmate might call Shen Chuan Young Master Shen or Brother Qinghe. Of course, there was nothing wrong with calling him Shen Chuan.
Did he mean that she could call him Xiang Chonghua in the future?
Or... Chong Hua?
Su Xiaoxiao blinked and said seriously, “Oh.”
....
Not long after Su Xiaoxiao left, Jing Yi came in covered in snow. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
Young Master Xiang was writing.
Jing Yi came to his side and asked, “Cousin, are you testing her today?”
“No.” Young Master Xiang continued writing.
