Soothed and green, Luo Ran was a little tired and wanted to sleep for a while.
You Qing also felt sorry for his master, so he helped her get on the bed, covered her with the quilt carefully, and then turned around and came out.
As soon as I came out, I saw Nanny Du coming next to the old lady.
Youqing sneered and stood upright in the corridor.
Aunt Du was slightly startled when she saw this, then stepped forward with a smile: "What is Miss Youqing doing?"
With a stern face, he showed an ugly smile: "It's nothing, the eldest lady is tired. I'm afraid that something with no eyes will disturb the lady's peace, so I'm here to keep an eye on it."
Aunt Du's face looked a little ugly.
Youqing deliberately kicked the ground with his foot and cursed: "Where did the dead bug come from? It's so cold in the winter that you can't freeze to death. It's disgusting to come here!"
Aunt Du suppressed her anger and said with a smile: "Miss Youqing, please go in and inform the eldest lady that the prince is here. The old lady invites her over."
Youqing crossed her waist and said exaggeratedly: "Hey, the Crown Prince? Who is the Crown Prince? Why are you inviting our lady over?"
Aunt Du laughed dryly: "Girl, what other eldest son can you have? Of course he is the eldest son of Duke Jingguo, our eldest lady's future husband! Go and call someone quickly, don't keep the eldest son waiting for a long time. "
"Our lady's future husband?"
Youqing seemed to have heard some funny joke, holding her stomach and laughing non-stop. After laughing enough, she straightened up, looked at Aunt Du and said: "I dare to ask Aunt Du, which young lady's future husband will carry his wife behind his back?" His sister is wandering around the garden? There is an older brother and a younger sister. For those who don’t know, they thought they were a newly married couple!"
"Miss Youqing, stop talking nonsense!"
Grandma Du shouted.
But Youqing was not afraid, straightened his back and said: "Am I talking nonsense? You can go to the house and ask around. So many pairs of eyes have seen it, how dare you not admit it? You have done it, and you are still afraid of what others will say. What!"
"Bah! Shameless thing!"
Youqing spat hard.
Seeing that she couldn't argue and couldn't force her way in, Grandma Du had no choice but to leave in despair.
Luo Ran, who was inside the house, heard clearly what was going on outside.
After the person left, he slowly got out of bed and asked Youqing to change her clothes.
Youqing changed from his previous fierceness, and his eyes were a little sore.
Luo Ran looked at her in the mirror, with no trace of sadness on his face. He smiled and said, "Okay, don't hang your head all the time. Don't worry, you lady won't be so useless anymore."
"Go, get the betrothal gift list, let's go to Ningfuyuan."
-
Luo Deyun looked at the young man opposite, somewhat confused.
Although the Luo and Fu families were engaged, speaking of which, the two families had become much estranged since the death of Mr. Daluo and Mr. Jingguo.
Luo Deyun originally thought that if the Fu family didn't mention it, he would take the initiative to mention it after returning to Beijing this year.
But what he mentioned was mostly to cancel the engagement.
The threshold of Duke Jingguo's mansion is high and the relationships inside are complicated, not to mention that the Fu family has such a person in front of them.
Although it is said that the commander was not close to anyone in the Duke of Jingguo's palace, he really couldn't bear to marry his beloved daughter and suffer the consequences.
But I didn't expect that last year, my mother sent a letter home, along with the betrothal gift exchanged between the two families.
Luo Deyun knew that it would be difficult to withdraw from this marriage.
"Master Fu, why are you here today?"
Seeing that he remained silent, Luo Deyun had no choice but to speak first.
Fu Jinan shook the tea cup in his hand casually and raised his head leisurely: "Master Hou, don't be nervous. Your Majesty just heard that under the governance of Master Hou, the Japanese pirates did not dare to invade Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and the Holy Heart was happy. He sent me. The official came to ask, does the Marquis want any reward?"
Luo Deyun narrowed his eyes slightly and said loudly: "Serving the imperial court is what I should do. What's more, the emperor has already rewarded me, so I really don't dare to be greedy anymore."
Fu Jinan smiled nonchalantly: "You are so polite, Lord Marquis. You can just keep what the Emperor rewards you. As the saying goes, thunder, rain and dew are all the kindness of the emperor. Is it possible that Lord Marquis cannot resist the decree?"
The tone suddenly changed.
Luo Deyun quickly stood up and saluted in the direction of the palace: "I don't dare!"
Fu Jinan stretched out his right hand and gave him a weak support: "Master Marquis, you don't have to take it seriously. I am just joking."
Luo Deyun lowered his eyes and suddenly saw a clear row of tooth marks on the young man's white wrist from the corner of his eye.
The teeth are small and neat, probably reserved for women.
Fu Jinan followed his gaze, sighed, gently touched the tooth mark with his left hand, and smiled fondly: "Mr. Marquis laughed at me. This little girl, spoiled by her subordinates, actually likes to bite people. "
There was no discomfort on his face when he mentioned the matter in the boudoir, as if he was just talking about ordinary things.
But when Luo Deyun heard it, he couldn't help but blush: This young man is too unruly and says anything!
Ningfuyuan.
Mrs. Luo stared at the list in her hand, and then looked at the figure kneeling straight in the middle of the ground. Her face turned red with anger, and she banged her cane and cursed: "You, are you crazy? Do you know that you are here?" say what?"
Luo Ran's voice was calm: "Replying to grandma, my granddaughter knows what she is talking about and what she is doing. Grandma please do it!"
The curtain was suddenly opened, and a figure ran in, hugging Luo Ran's body and crying softly: "Sister, sister, don't break off the engagement with brother Shiheng. It's Xue'er's fault. Xue'er will never see brother Shiheng again in this life. They are all gone, please don’t be angry with brother Shiheng.”
"Brother Shiheng, come and coax my sister. My sister just likes her too much, so she is angry with Xue'er."
Luo Ruxue looked at Fu Shiheng while crying.
There is grievance and reluctance in the eyes.
Fu Shiheng looked very distressed and stepped forward to help Luo Ruxue: "Xue'er, you don't have to wrong yourself so much. We can walk and sit upright without fear of other people making irresponsible remarks!"
Perhaps because she was too sad, Luo Ruxue was unsteady on her feet and suddenly fell into Fu Shiheng's arms. Fu Shiheng held her waist tightly and looked at the people on the ground angrily, as if she had pushed Luo Ruxue.
Luo Ran raised his head and looked at Mrs. Luo sarcastically: "Grandma, have you seen everything?"
Mrs. Li also came over at this time. When she saw the state of the room, she hurriedly said: "Ran'er, it's not that the second aunt is talking about you, you are too petty. Your second sister and Shiheng grew up together and are as close as each other. Brothers and sisters, why do you think so?"
"That's it, Ran'er, get up quickly, don't be angry with your grandmother. Shiheng is good to Xue'er, doesn't he also value our Luo family? You should be happy. Why are you still so ignorant? There is no end to the quarrel!" "
The third wife, Cao Shi, also followed Li Shi and agreed.
Luo Ran sneered, and before he could say anything, he heard familiar footsteps behind him.
"I don't know when there were such rules in the capital!"
Luo Deyun strode in, frowned and glanced at the two people who were still hugging each other, stepped forward to help his daughter up, and said: "As the ancients said, men and women do not sit at the same table at the age of seven. This is true for brothers and sisters, let alone nothing. Two people in a relationship. It’s simply immoral!”
When Fu Shiheng saw Luo Deyun coming in, he hurriedly pushed Luo Ruxue away from his arms, raised his hands and saluted: "Uncle Luo."
