delicious farm girl

Chapter 464 Started Digging
When Li Er returned home at night, he found that the atmosphere in the house was a bit weird.

Several children in the family were all frowning, and even Brother Zhuang, the most clingy child to Su Ran, stood aside with a cold face, far away from Su Ran.

Sister Xiao is the youngest, and of course she is the most direct.

"Father!" Seeing her father, the little girl immediately pouted her lips as if she had grasped at straws, and threw herself into her father's arms aggrieved.

Li Er hurriedly hugged his daughter, before he asked Su Ran: "What's wrong?"

Su Ran kept a straight face and said nothing.

Sister Xiao said loudly: "Mom, she has changed her mind, she doesn't like us anymore, she likes other people's children!"

Li Er frowned. "Don't talk nonsense."

"I'm not talking nonsense, I'm telling the truth! If you don't believe me, ask your mother!" Sister Xiao cried out in a low voice of grievance.

Li Er immediately looked at Brother Zhuang and Brother Bian.

"That's right, mother, she closed the door with King Rong today and secretly cooked a lot of delicious food, and she only ate it for King Rong alone, and she didn't allow us to go in!" Brother Bian also sniffed, With an aggrieved expression, "King Rong ate what Mother made, and he came out to laugh at us, saying that Mother treated him better than us. Mother didn't even scold him, and she even sent him out! King Rong also said , He will come to our house for dinner in a few days! Father, mother, she has changed her mind, you should take care of her, or she won't like you anymore!"

When the children said this, their eye sockets became red.

Li Er finally understood.

"King Rong is here again today?" He asked Su Ran.

Su Ran nodded slightly. "He sneaked over the wall, so I left him to have a meal."

"What do you mean having a meal? Mother, you have eaten this meal for more than an hour! You have cooked him a lot of delicious food in different ways, and you have never cared so much for us!" Sister Xiao yelled again.

"Shut up." Li Er snapped.

Sister Xiao paused, and her face wrinkled even tighter.

"Father, you scolded me!" She choked up and said, tears were about to fall.

"Don't cry." But Li Er didn't soften down to coax her this time, but threw out these three words coldly.

Since he joined the Royal Forest Army, his aura has become stronger and stronger.Now as soon as these three words were uttered, Sister Xiao was so frightened that her body froze, and the tears were in her eyes, and she didn't dare to fall.

Li Er handed his daughter to Sister Yue: "Take them out."

Sister Yue hurried out with a few children.

Li Ercai looked at Su Ran: "What's going on today?"

Su Ran laughed dryly. "It's really my fault. I finally saw Hua'er again, and he came here to see me. I was so excited that I couldn't care about anything else. I haven't seen you for so many years. I will make up for him what is missing, but I can't say those words, so I can only cook him something to eat. I want to cook everything for him. He used to like to eat, and now I guess he will like it. I did a lot without knowing it. Then... I forgot about the kids for a while."

The more she talked, the lower her head lowered, and she didn't dare to look at Li Er.

Li Er's eyes gradually became extremely gloomy after hearing her finish.

"So, did he find anything?"

Su Ran's shoulders stiffened again.

"No." She shook her head lightly, "This child seems to be fooling around now, but he is actually extremely guarded. He is on guard against me no matter what he says or does. Although he feels familiar with the food I cook, it is the same thing. After tasting a little bit, he put down his chopsticks. From the beginning to the end, he only looked at me with inquiry and suspicion, not shocked. Perhaps, he already regarded me as someone sent by the emperor to harm him!"

The loneliness on her face was like thin needles, piercing his heart with pain.

Li Er let out a long sigh, and he stretched out his arms to embrace her in his arms. "Don't worry, there is still time in the future, take your time."

"I know." Su Ran nodded, "Actually, that's what I told myself in my heart today. But when I really get along with him, I can't help it. I wish I could compensate him for what I owe him, and I hate him too. I can't let him know who I am right away, so... hey! Who knows, it's actually self-defeating."

"That's okay. There will be a chance to make up for it in the future." Li Er said in a deep voice.

"Is there any more? Do you think he will come to me in the future?" Su Ran raised her head quickly, her eyes full of hope.

When facing other things, she is always so calm and composed, never getting confused.But now, facing the person she really cares about, she has become an ordinary person who couldn't be more ordinary.

Li Er started to go on a rampage with a sour taste in his heart.

"Yes." He gritted his teeth and nodded, "King Rong is not stupid. He can understand whether you are sincere or not to him."

Su Ran remembered that she had said this to others.But now it was her turn to listen, but she felt that this statement was very mysterious.

Sincerely and falsely, in fact, many times many people can't realize it.For example, Princess Jingyi, hasn't she been deceived by Seventh Girl for so many years?As for her Hua'er, he was only so young, and his experience was far less than Princess Jingyi's.So what if he couldn't detect her kindness?
Su Ran began to think wildly.She knew she was thinking wildly, but she just couldn't help it!
Her mind was in a mess, and the man's palm firmly pressed her shoulder again.

"You don't have to think too much about that matter. If King Rong doesn't come, I'll bring him to see you! Now, I have one more important thing to tell you."

Su Ran slowly recovered. "What's up?"

"I found out that Yue Yuan is in another house in the capital." Li Er said in a deep voice.

Su Ran was shocked. "Another house?"

Li Er nodded. "There are still many people living in it."

Su Ran's eyes darkened. "His children?"

"Yes."

Su Ran smiled immediately. "I said earlier that this man has a dignified appearance, and he is a man with a beast's heart. When he was the son of the Yue family, he was surrounded by beautiful maidservants, and he looked down on anyone with a slightly inferior appearance. After the death of the princess, how could he just guard her? A woman, ten years like a day?"

However, if this matter is revealed, the hearts of many people in the capital who believe in true love will be broken, right?

"Have you thought of any way to expose the matter?" She asked Li Er.

Li Er nodded.

"What?" Su Ran asked.

"Treat him in the same way." Li Er's eyes darkened, and he said every word.

These days, Brother Zhuang is really like a fish in water in the palace.He learned martial arts from Li Er since he was a child, and read and wrote from Mr. Yuan. Among children of the same age, he can be called both civil and military.It's just that when he first came to the capital, he was full of vernacular, which made people laugh at him many times.But after all, he is young and quick to learn.Now being taken out by Su Ran for a few times, listening to the maids and servants in the palace speak official Chinese every day, now he can speak official Chinese very well.Therefore, he no longer has much rusticity of a country boy, and other children naturally don't reject him very much.

Among the companions of the little emperor's grandson, Yue Tianci, son-in-law of Yue, cared and warmed most to him.Brother Zhuang's mandarin has improved so much in a short period of time, thanks to his careful teaching.

After class that day, Brother Zhuang was about to go home when Yue Tianci walked over.

"Li Jun, what are you planning to do this afternoon?"

"Go home and read, play with your younger siblings." Brother Zhuang replied honestly.

"That's so boring! I happened to invite someone to go out for a horseback ride outside the city today, and you should come with me!" Yue Tianci warmly invited him.

Brother Zhuang glanced at him, but hesitated to speak.

Seeing this, Yue Tianci simply put his arm on Brother Zhuang's shoulder. "As the eldest son of King Zhenxi, what do you look like when you stay at home every day? Your parents are not sociable. If you are like them again, your palace will really not be able to get ahead in the capital. I am doing it for you OK!"

"Of course I know that you are doing it for my own good. But..." Brother Zhuang still hesitated.

Yue Tianci finally realized something was wrong.With a flash in his eyes, he quickly pulled Brother Zhuang aside: "But what happened to your family? Tell me, I'll keep it secret for you!"

"Then you must keep it a secret and don't tell anyone!" Brother Zhuang told him with a serious face.

Yue Tianci nodded quickly. "I promise!"

Brother Zhuang heaved a sigh of relief. "Let me tell you, when I went back that day, I heard my parents whispering."

"What did they say?" Yue Tianci became even more excited when he heard that, and hurriedly urged Brother Zhuang.

Brother Zhuang thought hard before he said: "My father said that one day when he was escorting some old man home with a team of imperial guards, he seemed to see a woman leading a boy. They look exactly the same! When they saw my father and the others, they turned around and ran away. My father found out that something was wrong, so he asked someone to chase after him, only to find that they lived in a small yard next to them, and there were many children in the yard!"

The excitement on Yue Tianci's face froze.He held Brother Zhuang's wrist tightly: "Are you serious? Where did they meet those people?"

"I don't know, I just heard what they said." Brother Zhuang looked innocent.

Yue Tianci was so angry that he let go of his hand. "Forget it, I knew I couldn't count on you!"

After all, turn around and leave.

"Wait, wait, didn't you say you were going out for a horseback ride?" Brother Zhuang hurried after him.

"Still riding a shitty horse and a shitty green!" Yue Tianci growled angrily.He suddenly turned his head and glared at Brother Zhuang again, "You are not allowed to tell anyone about this in the future, you know? Otherwise, I won't play with you in the future!"

"Ah? Oh, I see." Brother Zhuang nodded obediently.

Yue Tianci immediately turned around and left in a hurry.
