Chapter 154
When everyone heard the words, they retreated one after another.Xu Ningxia glared at Ruan Yunting angrily before leaving the door.The last one in Han Bin's house went out and carefully covered the door for the two of them.

The old lady leaned on the big satin pillow, her face was a little serious, her voice was lowered, and she said, "Ting'er, tell grandma the truth, what do you think of the Jun family?"

Ruan Yunting was taken aback by the question, blinked her eyes, and didn't know how to answer for a while. Why did the old lady ask her this question?Could it be that the old lady noticed something?Or did the old lady know about the fake calligraphy she sent to Jun Zhaoyan last time?Could it be that my aunt said yesterday?

There was a question mark in my heart, but I could only try my best to be innocent on the face, "Old ancestor, the Jun family is our relatives."

The old lady shook her head and said with a broken smile: "You are still pretending to be stupid with your grandma. Let me just say it straight. Although I strictly forbid you to spread the matter about your sister Xiu, you should already know about your cleverness. In the final analysis After all, our Xu family failed the Jun family, and now Mrs. Jun wants to choose a suitable one among the sisters and sons in our house to be the uncle of the Jun family. She has taken a fancy to you."

Ruan Yunting's heart skipped a beat when she heard the words, how could this happen?She was still a little worried before, but since the incident with Lu Wenshan, she has become less worried about her future, because if she offends Duke Lu, the Jun family will at least be afraid of her, and she will definitely be kicked out. But who knew that Mrs. Jun actually took a fancy to her? !

Looking at the old lady helplessly, Ruan Yunting's panic was not just pretending: "Old ancestor, you, have you already agreed?"

The old lady kept looking at Ruan Yunting's expression, seeing that she even turned pale with fright, she knew it in her heart.

"If you agree, I won't come to ask you today."

Ruan Yunting let out a long breath. It seems that the ancestors still love her after all. Isn't the girl's marriage just a word from the elders?Even if you are favored again, you can't escape the orders of your parents and the words of your matchmaker.Now the old lady can come to ask her a question, which shows her position in the old lady's heart.

That being the case, she said bluntly: "Old ancestor, although the uncle of the Jun family is good, I am not very willing to marry him."

"Oh?" The old lady was very surprised by the expected answer: "Tell me, why don't you want to?"

Ruan Yunting has a lot of reasons. She is going to be a punching bag for the Jun family at this juncture.Furthermore, the cause of her death in the previous life was unknown, and it was not known who in the Jun family caused her harm.Jun Zhaoyan is suspicious, so are Mrs. Jun and the old lady. How easy will her life be in the mansion full of doubts?What's more, there are a group of careless sister-in-laws and a mother-in-law who is always picky about her. As long as she thinks about what she has experienced in her previous life, the members of the Jun family and the mansion of the Jun family make her feel sick.The daughter-in-law of the Jun family would not go there no matter how much money was offered to her.

But can these conjectures be said in front of the old lady?

Would the old lady feel that she was selfish and would make her sisters suffer instead of going by herself?

Ruan Yunting blushed, and managed to force out a sentence: "I, I don't like him."

The old lady thought that Ruan Yunting would come up with a bunch of high-sounding reasons, but she just "tell the truth".Although the youngest daughter is a little bit outspoken, she is telling the truth.The old lady is still very happy that her granddaughter can tell her the truth at the wedding.

Seeing the old lady's face softened, Ruan Yunting said again: "Old Ancestor, Ting'er is not yet 13 years old, and she doesn't want to get married so soon, so please dote on me and let me stay by your side for a few more years, so that I can do my filial piety for my mother. OK?"

Ruan Yunting walked around the kang and came to the old lady's side, put her arm around her, and looked at her imploringly.

Hearing Ruan Yunting mentioning filial piety for her mother, the softest part of the old lady's heart seemed to be touched. Thinking of her beloved little daughter, her heart ached like a big hand was mercilessly squeezed.If Sister Ling was still there, she would definitely hope that Ting'er would marry a good family and not be as miserable as her.

Xu Cailing is the seven inches of the old lady.

"That's all." The old lady sighed, "It's a long-term plan. Let me think about it. Let's go down."

There are many questions in Ruan Yunting's mind that have not been answered, but she understands the truth of accepting as soon as she sees a deal.She has said what she should say, and the final decision-making power is still in the hands of the old lady.

It's useless to talk too much, Ruan Yunting got off the heating kang, put on her embroidered shoes, saluted and retreated.She also didn't want to bring up her biological mother and bring up the sadness of the old lady, but for the sake of her future, she could only be unfilial once.

Going down the porch to wear fox fur and wooden clogs, Ruan Yunting asked Han Bin's family to stay, and there was nothing to do in the Jingsi Garden.He took Chanjuan back by himself.

Just arrived at the gate of Jingsi Garden, and saw Mei Baoer, a servant who had just been with Ruan Yunlan not long ago, squatting on the threshold.Seeing Ruan Yunting coming, the thick-headed child stood up and saluted solemnly: "Hello, girl."

"Forget it, why are you staying outside in such a cold weather? Why don't you go in to keep warm." Ruan Yunting entered the courtyard and asked casually, "Where's your master?"

"Grandfather is drinking tea inside."

"Well, Chanjuan, go and make a pot of hot tea for Mei Bao."

"Yes."

"Thank you girl."

Mei Bao happily followed Chanjuan to have tea.Ruan Yunting entered the main room from this side, and Ruan Yunlan was wearing a sky blue cotton robe and was sitting on the edge of the Kang Kang.

"elder sister."

"Brother Lan, Uncle Shui is back today, can you see him?"

"See you." Ruan Yunlan's eyes lit up, she stood up and said, "Sister, let's go out and have a look."

"What?" Ruan Yunting didn't realize it for a while, Ruan Yunlan's temperament was stable, and most of the time she spent her free time reading in the mansion to prepare for the next year's examination.Why are you being active today.

Ruan Yunlan smiled and said: "Uncle Shui said he won't go back to our mansion. He is used to loafing wild cranes and doesn't like the constraints of our mansion. But he has his own house outside, and he has already told me the address. I'll come to find You, I just want to go and see with you."

"That's good." Ruan Yunting replied casually, sitting cross-legged on the kang.She always thought that Shui Qiu's heart had no fixed place and his home was everywhere, but what he said last time when he left, let her know that he has a "teacher".Now I know that he still has a house in Daliang City.It seems that the facts are exactly as she thought, she doesn't fully understand Shui Qiuxin.

"Then what are we waiting for?" Ruan Yunting stood up and put on a blue satin cloak.

Ruan Yunting shook her head and laughed: "Brother Lan, why are you in a hurry? We are usually taken care of by Uncle Shui. When we go back to his house for the first time, we always have to prepare some gifts. How can we go empty-handed and lose the etiquette? What we lose is mother's face." what."

Ruan Yunlan laughed when she heard the words, "I didn't think carefully about what my sister said, so let's prepare some gifts now. But with Uncle Shui's temperament, he won't mind these things, and we owe him nothing." Many, but there is no need to send many expensive things, anyway, it is still unclear."

"Well, I saw that Uncle Shui was only wearing the autumn dress this morning, or I should give him a big cloak."

"Alright."

The two reached an agreement, and went out together. Ruan Yunting took out her own money to buy Shui Qiuxin a black satin cloak with a badger fur collar.Following the direction Ruan Yunlan pointed, she arrived at Shui Qiuxin's garden.

This place is located in the northeast of Daliang City. It is just a small courtyard with two entrances. The black paint on the wooden door is peeling off, and the door knocker is rusty. No matter how you look at it, it feels depressed.Ruan Yunting stepped forward and gently knocked on the door knocker.Not long after, an old woman in her early 50s and wearing a blue coarse cotton padded jacket came out to open the door.

Seeing Ruan Yunting and his brother, the old woman was obviously taken aback, as if she had never seen such a delicate, beautiful and similar person, she laughed: "Your sister is here to find someone?"

"Hello, mom." Ruan Yunting saluted politely and asked with a smile, "Excuse me, is this from Uncle Shui's house?"

"I'm here to look for you. My sister just happened to be here, and I just came back. Please come in quickly."

The old lady let Ruan Yunting and Ruan Yunlan into the yard politely, and asked them to serve tea in the main hall first, and then went in to invite Shui Qiuxin.Ruan Yunting and Ruan Yunlan took the opportunity to look around the house.

Like any ordinary family in Daliang Country, the house is in disrepair for a long time, and the things are not brand new, but they are well-kept. The plants and trees in the yard, the tables and chairs in the house are all in good order.

A person like Shui Qiuxin, who is so idle and wild, might have bought a house in Liangcheng and hired that old lady just now to take care of him.

Just thinking of this, Shui Qiuxin walked in, and said with a cheerful smile, "Why are you here? It's very cold, don't provoke the wind and chill."

"Uncle Shui." Ruan Yunlan came to Shui Qiuxin's side, and when she looked at him, her eyes were full of admiration.

Ruan Yunting smiled: "It's so delicate. Let's take a look, recognize the door, and give you this." She said holding the big cloak with both hands. "

Shui Qiuxin shook off the cloak and looked at Ruan Yunting and Ruan Yunlan in surprise.

Ruan Yunlan explained: "My sister said it was cold, and I didn't see Uncle Shui wearing warm clothes, so I bought this one. Uncle Shui, please try it on and see if it suits you."

Shui Qiuxin was very moved, and his eyes softened. It has been a long time since he wandered around the world for so many years, and it has been a long time since anyone cared about him like this.Those who are familiar with him also know that he has magical powers to protect his body, and he is not invaded by cold or heat.It is not practical to use thick winter clothes in winter.But when the two children were delivered, his heart was still rubbed.Draped over the shoulders, the size is just right.

"That's right, Brother Lan, Tinger, thank you very much." Shui Qiuxin's smile became softer.

Ruan Yunting shook her head and said, "Uncle Shui has taken care of us a lot. If we want to thank you, we can't thank you enough."

Shui Qiuxin looked at Ruan Yunting and smiled.He greeted them to sit down and poured tea for them himself.

Just said a few words, the old lady came into the room again to report.

"My lord, a man in brocade clothes came outside, and he brought two beautiful sons with him, saying that they were old friends asking to see him."
