married daughter

Chapter 289 Chapter 329~330 Little Witch

Ruan Yunting looked at Jun Lanzhou, his face was hidden behind the thin black gauze curtain, only the white outline could be vaguely seen, for some reason, Ruan Yunting could feel the earnestness in his gaze, which made her She couldn't help but look away with heat on her face.

"Be nicer to her, it's between you two, it has nothing to do with me." She turned around stiffly, leaving Jun Lanzhou with a slender back, with an uncontrollable smile at the corner of her mouth.

Jun Lanzhou looked at her back, clenched his fists, and sighed, "I was the one who was abrupt. Angela had nothing to do with you in the first place."

Hearing the disappointment in his words, Ruan Yunting couldn't help but analyze the reason why he specially explained today. He didn't want her to misunderstand?Could it be that he...

Ruan Yunting turned her head slowly and looked at the man wearing the gauze hat. Unfortunately, his expression was hidden behind the gauze.

But Jun Lanzhou was shocked, because he obviously found that when Ruan Yunting turned around, her eyes were bright and bright, and the corners of her lips were smiling happily, which was completely different from the heavy one just now.

She really cared about his relationship with Angela?

That's why you refused to contact him for a month?

Jun Lanzhou is a serious person, he doesn't like to believe in rumors and guesses, and even what he sees may not be true, but Ruan Yunting's eyes at this moment obviously injected vitality into him, and he almost lifted his gauze hat to give her a smile.Now that he is in the city, he still held back.

"Ting'er, take good care of yourself. It's inconvenient for me to come to Yunge often, so you have to worry about everything."

"I know, take care too. Uh, there was an accident in the mansion before, the twelve girls got lost, and it was rumored that they were abducted by kidnappers, the second sister-in-law is now in charge of the house, and the new official took office. Three fires were fired, and the first fire was on the girls. Go to school, those who go to school and those who don't go to school, now have access control, so I..." Ruan Yunting's voice stopped abruptly, she lowered her head and scolded herself for talking too much, Lan Zhou explained Angela's matter, and she hurriedly explained Own?
"I...it's getting late, I'm going back home first." Ruan Yunting turned around and walked quickly to the carriage, her face became more and more panicked as she walked, and her footsteps were hurried.

Her moon-white spring dress with wide sleeves fluttered behind her when she was running fast, making her even more slender and fragile, and her posture was as elegant as facing the water and facing the wind.Jun Lanzhou couldn't help taking a few steps forward, watching her carriage rush away as if being chased by someone, and when she recovered, she found that she had been smirking and stroking her forehead helplessly.At this time, he was very fortunate that when Ruan Yunting aggressively pursued him and made such a big joke, he didn't look at her coldly or say hurtful words. In fact, he really hated her at that time and didn't hurt her. I just don't want to offend people, I never thought that I would fall in love with her today.

Yes, he clearly knows how he feels, liking someone is a very beautiful thing, as if his dead heart is full of hope, he can't find this kind of confidence that he can easily decide that he must work hard , how can you give up?From now on, it's her business how she treats him, and it's his business if he has him in his heart.

Ruan Yunting was in an unprecedentedly cheerful mood, and she smiled slightly along the way.Back at Xu's mansion, I went to salute the old lady first, but when I arrived at the Jingsi Garden, Thrush was winking at her on the porch.

Ruan Yunting froze for a moment, her smile restrained, and she approached Huamei with a questioning smile.

Thrush didn't dare to say too much, because spring came, the plywood curtains had been replaced with ordinary brocade curtains, and the doors inside were all open, so the back room could easily hear what they said. " gesture.

Nine?What does this mean?

Ruan Yunting couldn't figure out the situation for a while, just in time to lift the door curtain of Han Bin's house, she saw Ruan Yunting said with a smile: "Miss Ruan is back."

Han Bin's family was full of confidence, so they naturally gasped into the back room.

Ruan Yunting had no time to think about the meaning of Thrush, so she smiled gratefully at her, and immediately responded, "Yes, Mother Han, is the old ancestor here?"

"Here, there are important guests inside, please come in." Turning sideways, he lifted the curtain for Ruan Yunting himself.

Ruan Yunting thanked her with a smile and stepped into the threshold, bypassing the newly replaced red sandalwood carved magpie screen, and saw the old lady and a luxuriously dressed unconfused man sitting on the left and right of the main seat, beside the eldest wife and second wife, luxurious Behind the man stood a pretty girl, who looked to be eleven or twelve years old, wearing a double-ringed bun, with not many jewels on her hair, but a flower-headed hairpin was inlaid with crystal clear rubies. The goose-yellow skirt is also made of excellent material, and the pattern of the lotus flowers on the cuffs is novel. At first glance, it is the most popular spring dress of Xiujian Villa this year.

This is... Nine Princes!So the girl is the princess Han Ge?It turns out that the "nine" in the thrush ratio means this!
While walking, Ruan Yunting guessed several possibilities one by one, and bowed gracefully in front of the old lady and the prince, "Greetings to the Ninth Prince, and greetings to the ancestors."

"No, get up." The Ninth Prince replied with a smile first, and then pointed to Han Qingge behind him: "This is Qingge, my daughter-in-law, Qingge, this is Miss Ruan, that stubborn Ruan Yunlan. The boy's twin sister."

As soon as the words were finished, Han Qingge had already skipped around the grand teacher's chair and arrived in front of Ruan Yunting. Before Ruan Yunting could salute, he took her both hands and bowed to salute first, and said with a blushing face, "Hello, sister."

It wasn't Sister Ruan, nor Miss Ruan, nor was she arrogant enough to wait for Ruan Yunting to come and salute her, but she politely called her sister and saluted her.Ruan Yunting threw away several other unreliable guesses, and the smile on her face became more gentle and cheerful, "I don't dare to be, please greet the princess."

"Oh, why are you so polite, sister is so born, do you hate me as much as Brother Lan?" Princess Qingge pouted, her big eyes filled with tears quickly, as if Ruan Yunting said no, She immediately wanted to flood the Xu Mansion.

Ruan Yunting hurriedly shook her head, and handed her the handkerchief to wipe her tears: "How come, the princess is noble and beautiful, innocent and generous, I like it before it's too late, how can I hate it? Is it because Brother Lan is ignorant and offended the princess?"

As he spoke, he raised his head and looked at the old lady inquiringly.

The old lady shook her head helplessly, and asked Han Bin's family, "Why hasn't Brother Lan arrived yet?"

"I asked Caiyue to ask for it. It is said that Master Lan learned to ride and shoot today. He was sweating. He was taking a bath just now. He will be here later." Han Bin's family replied with a smile on their faces and stepped aside. .

The old lady smiled and said, "Lord Ninth, I'm really sorry to trouble you for waiting for a long time."

"Where, today is the sudden arrival of the king and the little girl. No wonder Brother Lan."

The sound of "Brother Lan" made everyone in the room hear some clues. The first wife and the second wife looked at each other, and they knew it in their hearts.Ruan Yunting pursed her lips secretly, not knowing whether the Princess's favor was a blessing or a curse for Ruan Yunlan.

Han Qingge generously put Ruan Yunting's handkerchief into his arms, and complained to her aggrievedly: "Sister, does Brother Lan hate girls like me? Why did I ask him to play with him several times? He said that he was too busy to read, so he just asked me to go back to the mansion first, so as not to worry my father... I always, always thought that I was pretty good, but after seeing you, I felt, felt..." He said in a low voice Head: "Brother Lan must think that I am not as good-looking as you."

Princess Qing Ge must be well protected, because her innocence and straightforwardness are not put on like Angela's, but come from the heart.When she was outspoken to express her thoughts, the Ninth Prince looked at her daughter not only without blame, but also with affection.Such paternal love made Ruan Yunting feel envious.

"How could it be?" Ruan Yunting said with a smile: "Brother Lan and I grew up together, and I know his temper best. He is definitely not a person who judges people by their appearance."

"It's not someone who clings to the powerful." Princess Qingge continued: "My father dotes on me, and many princes from aristocratic families who know me are considerate and flattering to me in every possible way. Only Brother Lan shows me face."

"Uh..." Is this Brother Kua Lan or hurting him?

At this moment, Huamei raised the curtain outside and said, "Old Ancestor, Master Lan is here."

Ruan Yunlan then entered the door. After taking a bath, his long hair was still wet and tied in a bunch behind his head. His body was embroidered with lake blue satin made of ordinary material. It made him even more delicate and handsome, without showing any femininity.Walking, Yushu faced the wind, reached the center, bowed upright, and faintly entered the voice changer, his voice was a little hoarse: "Ninth Prince, the old ancestor is well."

"En." The Ninth Prince looked him up and down with a serious smile instead of smiling like before. Although his face was straight, the admiration in his eyes was hard to conceal.

Ruan Yunting would be a fool if she couldn't see the Ninth Prince's thoughts at this moment.He was looking at Ruan Yunlan with the eyes of his father-in-law and son-in-law.

"Brother Lan." Princess Qingge's face was puffed up with powder, and she came to Ruan Yunlan with a smile, and was about to pull his sleeve.

Ruan Yunlan hurriedly took a step back, avoiding her hand with a salute without looking for traces, and said politely and distantly: "Princess."

Han Qingge's tears seemed to be controlled by a switch, and once filled his eyes: "Brother Lan, why do you always avoid me?"

"I don't have any."

"You still said no, yesterday I went to the academy to look for you, and you clearly saw me and pretended not to look at me!" Han Qingge complained in a tone of voice.

Ruan Yunlan lowered her head and said nothing.

Ninth Prince coughed, "Qing Ge, come here."

"Father." Han Qingge hesitated for a moment, but returned to the Ninth Prince, and stood obediently behind him, pouted all the time, looking cute and tight.

The Ninth Prince looked at the old lady and said: "Although our two families don't communicate much, I have always admired Mrs. Xu's rigorous family management. Since the old lady's generation, the Xu family has produced loyal ministers and talents in succession. When I was under the king's tent, I saw that he was a good young man, and now he has really become the most powerful sharp knife for the emperor. This king thinks that since we are destined, we might as well walk around more in the future."

The Ninth Prince has a very high status in the court. Although he is just an idle prince now, he enjoys planting flowers and fishing every day, but compared with Prince Yu, he has made outstanding military achievements in the past, and made great contributions to the great cause of Emperor Qianyuan of Daliang Kingdom. The Queen Mother and her elders also like the Ninth Prince quite a lot.The Ninth Prince does not participate in government affairs, but he does have a high position and authority.Being able to climb up to such a person will do no harm to the Xu family.The old lady couldn't wait for this, the words of the Ninth Prince immediately made her laugh, and she was also happy for Ruan Yunlan.This child is sensible and stable, even if his status is a little lower, the prince doesn't mind now, and he is willing to let the princess get close to him, what else do they care about?
Immediately nodded and nodded, said: "My lord understands what I mean. The princess is a golden branch and jade leaf. It is his honor for our Brother Lan to be friends with His Highness the princess."

"Yeah." The Ninth Prince nodded in satisfaction, turned around to look at Ruan Yunlan and said, "Qing Ge is naughty, but also smart, you are a student of Fengxian Academy, and you are top-notch in six arts and five arts, you have to teach her more "Looking at Ruan Yunting, she instructed Han Qingge: "Your sister Ruan is an extremely intelligent and talented woman. I have also heard about some affairs in the government. You should be more open-minded to ask others for advice in the future."

Han Qingge rolled his big eyes, and saluted with a satisfied smile: "Yes, thank you, Father." Then he hopped up to Ruan Yunting: "Sister, can you take me to your house? Brother Lan is going too. !"

The old lady waved her hand, smiled and said to the Ninth Prince: "The girls are out of school now, let them go too. If the prince rewards you, I will stay at the house today. The old man has already ordered someone to hold a banquet for the prince and the prince. Princess."

"Then there is Mrs. Lao."

……

Ruan Yunting and Han Qingge walked ahead.Han Qingge is two years younger than Ruan Yunting, but Ruan Yunting developed early. Measured by modern standards, she is about 1.6 meters 1.6 tall. Less than [-] meters.Following Ruan Yunting, the elder sister and elder sister called out very affectionately.

Ruan Yunlan only felt that her head was as big as a fight, but she didn't expect that it was useless to refuse several times, and the pampered princess even moved her own father here.Ninth Prince put pressure on the old lady, wouldn't he have to face this clingy little girl every day in the future?
When the three of them arrived in the back garden, the girls from all parties had already heard the news and rushed over. Xu Ningxia left school, and she complained to Madam Cao about her illness, and was eating snacks and reading scripts in the room, but now she was dressed up by the old lady. On the way, she also explained the nobleness of Princess Qingge with thousands of reminders, and she was very upset.

Xu Xueqi and Xu Ningmin, who came from the Xijiao courtyard, came here only with the permission of Madam Cao.There are still two months until the draft time, Cao Mama's daily teaching is becoming more and more rigorous, and their leisure time is getting less and less.The status of the two people is not high. This time, in the draft, they are holding their breath, and they must strive for success, so they dress up very well. One of them is wearing a bright green jacket skirt, which looks cute and cute, and the other is a green dress. The green beige is dignified and gentle.

The most inconspicuous one was Xu Ninghui, the tenth girl, who was only wearing ordinary trousers. With this little girl, she stood in the most inconspicuous position.

After a group of people greeted each other, Xu Ningxia naturally regarded herself as the daughter-in-law of the third wife, and said with a smile: "It is our honor for the Princess to come. Although our Xu Mansion is not as luxurious as the Princess's Mansion, there are several places in the back garden. So delicate..."

Xu Ningxia pulled the princess to talk, and smiled very gently and politely. Only she knew in her heart how much she hated such troublesome things as pleasing the powerful.Xu Xueqi and Xu Ningmin followed around, interjecting at the right time to express themselves.

Ruan Yunting and Ruan Yunlan, together with Xu Ninghui, were at the end of the team.

"How is Aunt Xiang?" Ruan Yunlan asked in a low voice. Aunt Xiang was Xu Cailing's maidservant during her lifetime, so the relationship is naturally closer, and Ruan Yunlan can't forget that Aunt Xiang will send sachets to their sisters every year on their birthdays. Brother, this year is no exception.

Xu Ninghui's face seemed to be covered with rouge, she didn't dare to look up at Ruan Yunlan, and said in a low voice, "Well, Auntie is fine, thank you for caring." Out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of him about to put on a sachet with sapphire tassels tied on it, "What are you wearing?"

"Yeah, thanks to Aunt Xiang's sachet, when I feel drowsy from reading at night, smelling it immediately makes me feel much more refreshed."

"There is a refreshing fragrance made by my aunt herself. You, do you read books late at night?"

"Yes, I want to stand out, so naturally I have to work harder."

……

Ruan Yunting walked quietly aside, listening to the conversation between Xu Ninghui and Ruan Yunlan, suddenly found that Xu Ninghui looked at her silly brother with different eyes, it was shy but also joyful.Thinking of when she gave the sachet last year, the stitches of the sachet that Aunt Xiang gave her were completely different from Brother Lan's, and Ruan Yunting suddenly realized that Xu Ninghui sewed it for Ruan Yunlan, right? !Could it be that she was thinking about Ruan Yunlan?
Cousin always has some inexplicable close feelings towards cousin. In ancient times, there were many people who married close relatives, and many of them were cousins ​​together. In addition, Ruan Yunlan's good looks made her and Xu Ninghui have different identities. Gao, those who are bullied will inevitably pay more attention, and Aunt Xiang is very close to their brothers and sisters... The more Ruan Yunting thinks about it, the more likely it is that Xu Ninghui likes Brother Lan!

"Brother Lan! Why are you walking so slowly!"

While talking, Han Qingge bounced to Ruan Yunlan's side, grabbed his sleeve, and looked at Xu Ninghui suspiciously: "Who are you? I'm sorry, I didn't pay attention to you just now, you are Mrs. Xu's." Granddaughter?"

Xu Ninghui lowered her head all the time, and from the corner of her eye, she saw Princess Qingge pulling Ruan Yunlan's robe sleeve, her heart trembled, her nose felt a little sour, and she saluted dignifiedly: "Princess Princess is well, my Xu family ten girls."

"It turned out to be the tenth girl." The princess smiled happily: "I'm so happy today, and I met new friends." Walking in front of several girls, the little hand pointed to them one by one and called: "Eighth girl, ninth girl, Miss Qi, Miss Ten."

Every time a person is clicked, that person will smile and nod, very flattering and respectful.Han Qingge finally clicked on Ruan Yunlan, and said with a smile, "And Brother Lan."

The corners of Ruan Yunlan's mouth twitched, she wanted to force a smile but couldn't, this girl has been pestering him for too long, she is clearly annoying, and she doesn't want to offend her, and she still has to wait for her, it's really suffocating.

"Oh!" Suddenly, Princess Qingge put Ruan Yunlan on her waist: "This sachet is so beautiful!"

While speaking, he unceremoniously grabbed the light blue sachet and smelled it. There was a scent of mint mixed with a faint floral fragrance full of disadvantages. Princess Qingge said: "It smells so good, Brother Lan, this fragrance The pouch is exquisite and fragrant, just give it to me!" Saying that, she was about to untie the knot.

Xu Ninghui's face turned pale, and she bit her lower lip nervously.

Everything happened in the blink of an eye, Ruan Yunlan took a step back protecting the sachet, already bored with this arrogant little Princess, forced a smile and said: "Princess, this sachet was given to me by someone else, how can I do it again?" Gift it to you? You have a lot of rare treasures in the palace, how can a small sachet get into your eyes." This is a gift from Aunt Xiang kindly, and it is really useful for him to wake up when he reads, so why don't you still give it to him? To this noble golden branch and jade leaf?
Seeing that he didn't give it to Xu Ninghui, her hanging heart was relieved, and then she smiled complicatedly. The smile was that he liked the sachet embroidered by her, but the sad thing was that he didn't know that it was embroidered by her.

"Sent by others? Is it from the girl?" The princess was a little unhappy.

"This has nothing to do with the princess." Ruan Yunlan frowned displeased.

Seeing that the two were at a stalemate, Ruan Yunting was about to come forward to smooth things over, but Princess Qingge smiled slyly: "Brother Lan, are you really not going to give it?"

"Sorry, sorry I can't."

"Hmph! Brother Lan, do you think I have no other way to get your sachet!"

"If the princess asks the prince for help again, of course I have nothing to do."

"You!" Princess Qingge was deflated, stomping her feet angrily: "You, you scoundrel! Of course I have my own way, don't look for the father! Just wait!"

The princess put down her words, flicked her sleeves, turned around and left.

Afraid of accidents, Ruan Yunting hurriedly chased after her.Xu Ninghui also frowned worriedly, and approached Ruan Yunlan to persuade her in a low voice: "Brother Lan, you can give it to her. If you like it, I'll do it later, and let my aunt embroider a better one for you."

"That won't work. Depending on who she is, the royal blood can snatch people's things by force. A gentleman doesn't take what others like, don't you understand?"

Princess Qingge heard it clearly, and snorted: "I am a woman, not a gentleman, Brother Lan, just wait and see!"

Xu Ningxia, Xu Xueqi and others followed behind, and the group returned to Pine Age Hall not long after.

When we arrived at the main room, the old lady smiled and asked, "Why did you finish shopping so quickly? It's not time for dinner yet. Are you going for a walk with the girls?"

The girls and Ruan Yunlan bowed to the Ninth Prince, the old lady, and the wives together, and stood aside.

Han Qingge jumped to the front, sat on the side of the old lady's chair, and put her arms around her sleeves coquettishly: "Old Madam Xu, look at how pretty the sachet on Brother Lan's waist is, the manpower in your house is really a coincidence, Who embroidered it, I want one too."

When Han Qingge was talking, his big eyes rolled around, looking very cute.The old lady understood what she meant, touched her face happily, and then asked Ruan Yunlan: "Brother Lan, who embroidered that sachet?"

Ruan Yunlan already knew that things were going to go bad, but she had no choice but to reply angrily: "Back to my ancestors, the sachet was given to me by Aunt Xiang on my birthday this year. It's my birthday present."

"Aunt Xiang embroidered it." The old lady deliberately ignored the meaning of Ruan Yunlan's words, and coaxed Han Qingge, "It takes time to embroider the sachet. Princess Qingge wants it now, so why wait? Not like this, Brother Lan, you give this sachet to the Princess, and I will ask Aunt Xiang to embroider one for you later."
