Sanbao has a poor relationship with his parents. Since he was born, Qin Chuan and Lin Qiuniang have never seen him.

When he began to understand this world in a daze, it was Qin Xiaoxiao who was by his side, which allowed him to rely on him from now on and regarded her as the most important person.

The years of youth were like a flash of time. Qin Xiaoxiao pretended more and more, but Sanbao never cared about it. He recognized his position in her mind from the beginning.

Except for the uncle and grandparents, he firmly occupies the fifth position. Even if a young master Jing who frequently appears suddenly appears, he has never doubted this.

This determination was completely shattered after learning that she was going to marry Jing Heng yesterday.

Looking at the lonely back of Sanbao, Qin Xiaoxiao's mind appeared in his mind when he was a child, when he always held her hand obediently and followed him without leaving.

She got up and walked around the fish bucket, slowly walked to Sanbao, and gently held his cold hand: "It was my fault for not telling you in time that this matter was my fault, and it was worth it for you to be angry with me for this."

The brother and brother grew up together, and were once close like one person, and had a quarrel. They never held grudges. Even if they had a quarrel, they would make a fight and make up soon. This was the first time that Qin Xiaoxiao apologized to Sanbao so solemnly.

"Xiaoxiao, it's not your fault, it's me, it's me who's narrow-minded and stingy." Sanbao felt a huge panic in his heart, and he didn't dare to look at his cousin's eyes, because he was afraid of seeing the disgust inside.

"Sanbao, look at me." Qin Xiaoxiao saw his anxiety and blamed himself, not just because he didn't tell him about the engagement.

"Xiaoxiao..." Sanbao raised his head silently, his wet eyes flashed with caution that he had never noticed.

"Three treasures, in my heart, you will always be my dearest brother." Qin Xiaoxiao gently touched the corner of his eyes, stared at his eyes and said, "What I want to protect most in this world is you. Every year, I always pray to them, pray for you to be safe and healthy, pray for you to be happy and worry-free... Over the years, I am afraid that the ancestors have bothered me, otherwise why would you still cry?"

When she was a child, she saw that Sanbao was ignored by Qin Chuan and hated by Zhao Caoer. She always felt distressed for Sanbao, and then treated him twice as well. She begged Qin Shan and Lin Qiuniang to have more pain, thinking that this would make up for the love of Sanbao's parents.

"Xiaoxiao, it's me that I'm too useless." Sanbao's tears came out uncontrollably again, which made him even more despise himself and afraid that his cousin would dislike him.

When he was a child, he could tolerate his parents' cold treatment and never cried to get a trace of their pity. All his tears were shed in front of Qin Xiaoxiao, and only in front of her, he would vent his emotions without reservation.

"Who said you are useless? If you don't cry in front of me, it means I am useless." Qin Xiaoxiao half-wrugged him like when he was a child, gently patting his back to comfort him: "I have ignored you in the past two years and have never cared about you."

Sanbao's head shook like a rattle: "It's not your business, it's because I am too weak."

At this moment, he was not too concerned about Qin Xiaoxiao and didn't tell him about the engagement. He was full of "Xiaoxiao still cares about him" and "Xiaoxiao still cares about him".

Qin Xiaoxiao sighed secretly and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter. When you have someone you want to protect in the future, you will become stronger and become a real man."

Sanbao said without hesitation: "Xiaoxiao, I want to protect you!"

Of course, Qin Xiaoxiao believed that what he said was the truth, but he was more worried: "Three treasures, you will be sixteen after the New Year. In a few years, you will have a wife who loves you and a child who is connected with your blood. They are the ones who need your protection the most."

Sanbao shook his head and said stubbornly: "I just want to protect you well, it doesn't matter if I don't marry you!"

So don’t you get married, okay? I can always be with you.

But he didn't dare to say these words. He knew that the marriage imperial edict had been issued, and he would not do whatever he wanted. He was even more afraid that he would say it. She would think that he was unreasonable and alienated him and would never pay attention to him again.

"What stupid things are you saying?" Qin Xiaoxiao rubbed his head and said helplessly: "You can still protect me if you marry a wife, but I hope that more people in this world will love you, such as your future wife and children, do you understand?"

Sanbao clenched his fists tightly: "I don't need others to love me." As long as you keep loving me, it's enough.

Qin Xiaoxiao was very troubled when he heard this: "Three treasures, different... There is parental affection, brotherhood, friendship... There are some feelings you have never experienced, how do you know that you don't need them?"

The Three Treasures did not say anything, obviously they couldn't listen.

Qin Xiaoxiao had no choice but to say, "You will be in the Tongsheng Examination next year. You have been studying hard for so many years. Don't be distracted by things around you."

Next to this is her marriage with Jing Heng.

Sanbao opened his mouth, but he couldn't help it and asked humbly: "Xiaoxiao, can you not marry?"

Qin Xiaoxiao was not surprised that he would ask this question, and asked back: "Sanbao, do you don't want me to get married, or do you don't want me to marry Brother Li?"

Sanbao held her hand tightly, and a begging look appeared on his face: "I, I can take care of you too, don't marry someone else, okay?"

Qin Xiaoxiao touched his head and said seriously: "I said that you will always be my dearest brother. Even if you marry Brother Li, this will not change at all, and the things you are worried about will not happen!"

Sanbao's eyes darkened and he finally showed a smile.

This smile made Qin Xiaoxiao feel very distressed, but he had no choice but to hope that one day he could figure it out.

It was the 22nd day of the twelfth lunar month in a blink of an eye. This day was a happy day for Xueya and An An to get married.

The wedding was handled directly in Xue Ya's new house. Yesterday, Mr. Qin and others moved all the borrowed tables, chairs and benches, so everyone was busy in the new house early in the morning.

Amidst the lively firecrackers, Qin Xiaoxiao, who was helping in the kitchen, was pulled into the main hall by someone and was forced to accept various greetings from those distant relatives who were not close to her and Jing Heng’s marriage.

When Jing Heng came with a gift, the performance of these distant relatives became even more exaggerated. They left Qin Xiaoxiao and swam around Jing Heng, throwing many unbearable problems.

This was unimaginable in the past. After all, Jing Heng seemed to be difficult to mess with, and unfamiliar people dared not come to him. Now they are not afraid. They shouted out "cousin-law" and "cousin-law" and "cousin-law" and immediately brought the relationship closer.

Jing Heng still looked like he was not easy to get close to, but for the sake of Qin Xiaoxiao and the Qin family, he did not ignore these distant relatives who had been in contact with each other and responded to their questions from time to time.

Maybe he thought he was easy to talk to, but gradually someone began to ask: "Xiao Jing, this is my grandson. Look at how strong he is, why don't you take him by your side and run errands for you?"

The others were waiting for others to speak first, but when they finally mentioned it, they all looked at Jing Heng eagerly.

They knew very well that once Jing Heng accepted the person, it would be impossible to really treat him as a errand. Everyone is a relative, who would do anything to persecute his relatives?

Jing Heng glanced at the grandson who was "strong" in the other party's mouth, curled the corners of his mouth slightly, pointed at Dabu and said to him, "It's only about strength. If you can put him down, I'll arrange for you to enter the Guards' Mansion."

When the big guy heard this, his eyes lit up, and his heart was filled with heat: Good, Guard Mansion? Everyone there is protecting the emperor, right? God, I'm lucky, I'm going to protect the emperor, it's so majestic!

He didn't expect Jing Heng to be so happy, so happy that he couldn't believe it: "My cousin, are you saying the truth?"

Jing Heng nodded.

"Okay!" The big guy was very excited, then looked at Dabu with disdain: "This room cannot be used, why don't we go out to compete?"

Just such a thin guy, he obviously didn't have a good meal when he was a child, so he could knock this guy down with one hand.

His parents and grandparents were also excited and at a loss. They looked at Dabu as if they were looking at a big baby.

Among the three scissors and stone cloth, Dabu is the thinnest and most inconspicuous. Compared with the big relatives, it is really not enough to look at it, so it is no wonder that the big family is so confident.

"No need, let's fight quickly." Dabu looked at the big guy with a smile, looking gentle and harmless, without any threat.

"Yes, it's just about strength, it'll be tied in a while." The big guy thought he was showing weakness, laughed and took off his heavy cotton jacket and showed his two strong arms.

The crowd immediately scattered and made room for free.

Da Bu brought a bench and placed it between the two of them, and said to the big guy standing opposite him: "With this bench as the boundary, whoever touches it will lose."

The big guy had no objection at all, so he directly put on his posture, stretched out his right hand and shouted: "Come on!"

Dabu smiled, calmed down the plate, held his hand, and waited for the stone to give the order.

I heard that there were people in the house who were basking in the sun in the yard rushed in to watch the fun, and soon the spacious main hall was filled with water.

At this time, Shi Tou walked to one end of the bench and saw that Dabu and the big guy were ready, he shouted loudly: "Start!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the bench fell to the ground with a "clang".

The people watching the fun around him only felt a flash in front of their eyes, and something flew out. After looking closely, they found that the big guy was lying on the ground in a confused look, and the bench was also pressed under his belly.

"Seeking." Dabu clasped his fists with both hands, and still had a gentle and harmless smile. In the eyes of the big guy, it became evidence of his insidiousness and cunning.

"No, no, I was not ready just now, let's compete again!" The big guy got up from the ground in a panic and refused to admit that he just lost.

He wants to enter the guard's mansion and the people who go to the palace to protect the emperor must not lose!

Jing Heng's patience had reached its limit. Seeing that the guy was messing around and was about to compare again, his face turned dark: "Compare again, are you sure you can compare?"

The big guy had never seen him look like a black face. He was so scared that he shrank his neck and did not dare to say anything.

His grandfather was unwilling to miss this opportunity. Relying on his high seniority, he thought that Jing Heng would not dare to smear his face, so he stepped forward and said, "Xiao Jing, you are the priest's nephew. Isn't it just a matter of just bringing your cousin into the Guard's Mansion?"

The others nodded and said to him in a verbal way: "Yes, we are all relatives, not outsiders, just pull it if we can."

"You don't want to let go, do you look down on us poor relatives?"

"I think so, I just want to help you with this little thing."

“…”

These people became less and less sensible. When Jing Heng could no longer bear it, Qin Shan rushed in with a dark face and said to the chattering distant relatives: "Today is my niece's day of joy. You sincerely come and congratulate me on good wine and food. If anyone is not good at making trouble, it will be difficult for him to have a bad face, don't blame me for embarrassing him!"

He was so angry that he had a bad temper when he was young. Even these distant relatives who were estranged knew that he could say it and suddenly felt embarrassed and no one dared to appear in front of him.

The big-name grandfather couldn't help but said sarcastically: "Dashan, you have raised a good daughter and have clinged to relatives with the emperor. How dare we poor relatives cause trouble in front of you!"

Qin Shan smiled and said nothing: "Cousin, your children and grandchildren have their own blessings. You are old and should enjoy a good life. It is better to have less leisure time, so as not to outsiders say that your children and grandchildren are unfilial, and you have to live a life with your face!"

When the old man heard this, he almost turned his back. He pointed at Qin Shan with his right hand tremblingly and said tremblingly: "Okay, okay, it's so good!"

After saying that, he spat heavily on the ground and shouted at his children and grandchildren: "What are you doing when you stand? It's embarrassing to see you? Let's go!"

Soon, the whole family squeezed out of the main hall and left angrily with dissatisfaction with the Qin family.

Qin Shan's eyelids didn't move, and his eyes swept across the faces of other distant relatives one by one: "If anyone thinks that my family is not well-received and is unhappy to drink this wedding banquet, you can tell me that I'll drive you back and you can catch up with lunch."

These distant relatives finally took this opportunity to run over from all over the place to contact the Qin family, but they would not leave like that. Even if they could not get the benefits, they would make a profit after staying for a big meal. So no one said anything, as if they were not the one who accused Jing Heng just now.

Qin Shan ignored them anymore and turned his head and stared at Jing Heng with a grudge, but found that he was looking at him with admiration, and couldn't help but be stunned.

After reacting, his old face turned slightly red and said angrily: "There are not enough people to pick up the bride, so you can count it!"

There are not enough people to pick up the bride. It is just because he is afraid that he will continue to stay here and there will be a silly rumor, which will make outsiders laugh and make their own face difficult. It is better to send him away and everyone will save some attention.

"Yes, Uncle Qin." Jing Heng knew it very well and agreed without saying a word.

Qin Shan was a little calmer and waved his hand to signal him to find Dabao. After a while, he followed Dabao's arrangements.
