Tomorrow is the New Year's Eve. In order to replenish his energy, Luo Ran deliberately washed up and rested early that night.
It has been cold recently, and Luo Ran always felt that it would be much warmer with two children by his side, so these days the mother and son slept on a canopy bed.
Before going to bed, she worriedly checked for the first time how tightly the two children's quilts were covered. Just as she was about to turn over and lie down, she heard the long-lost sound of the window opening and closing.
Luo Ran was a little surprised. She could hear such a weak sound immediately, and she didn't know if she was too sensitive. I couldn't help but cursed at the visitor several times, then turned around, picked up the cloak on the bedside, wrapped myself tightly, and stared at the bed curtain outside the bed.
After Fu Jinan came in, he didn't rush over. He saw the figure sitting on the bed, turned around and touched the kettle on the table. He found that it was hot, so he poured himself a cup. He didn't drink it, but held it in his hand.
There was only one candle light left in the room, which was a little dark, but it was enough to see what he was doing. After lowering his head to make sure that his clothes were in place, he sat quietly.
Youqing, who was standing guard outside the door, heard the noise and knocked gently: "Miss, do you want a drink of water?"
Fu Jinan didn't move.
Luo Ran said: "It's okay, I will call you if anything happens."
Youqing seemed to hesitate for a moment and responded, but he didn't hear her leaving footsteps. She was probably still at the door. Luo Ran felt much more at ease.
Finally, Fu Jinan felt that he was no longer so cold, so he opened the bed curtain and came in.
The well-made Babu bed is like an independent small room. It is warm inside and has a sweet fragrance that makes people relax as soon as they come in. There is also a baby's milk fragrance.
Fu Jinan looked around and said, "Did you change the bed?"
This bed was a dowry that Luo Deyun had made for her a few years in advance by the best craftsmen in Jiangnan.
Later, Luo Ran broke off the engagement and kept her two children by her side. She accidentally thought of the bed in the warehouse and told her father to use it now. She had no intention of getting married anyway, so it was okay to leave it empty. waste.
Luo Ran didn't answer, put his legs away, curled up and leaned against the bed.
Because I had something to ask him, his attitude seemed to be much better.
Fu Jinan also felt it, but at this time he only focused on taking care of the children.
Xu felt that he could not see clearly, so he simply took off his soap boots, sat cross-legged on the edge of the bed, looked at the two children and asked, "Are they good?"
Luo Ran glanced at the big boat-like feet, tried his best to hold back the anger in his chest, lifted the quilt and got out of bed, stood on the corridor of Babu bed, and tried to stay as far away from him as possible.
Fu Jinan saw her avoiding him like a plague, and was a little unhappy: "Why are you running so far away? Can I eat you?"
Luo Ran replied quietly: "I said, I won't stop you from seeing the child. But can we agree first? If you want to see the child in the future, you can choose a place outside, and I will order someone to send the child there. "
She has not had a mother since she was a child, and she doesn't feel anything about it now, but she clearly remembers the unspeakable envy in her heart when she saw other children calling her mother when she was a child.
So now the same goes for my children. I can give them a lot, but I can't give them only father's love.
If this person is really serious, she doesn't mind letting the two children get close to him. Even if he has to recognize his ancestor and return to his clan in the end, she will agree as long as it is good for the two children.
Of course, this idea was something she only figured out recently.
But Fu Jinan didn't know what she was thinking. When she heard her say this, it was obvious that she didn't welcome him. So he stopped looking at the child, turned around and looked at her and said, "You really don't think you have a conscience. Why don't you ask me if I haven't been here for so long?"
Since the last time the two of them didn't talk to each other and met again in the palace, Luo Ran always thought that he would come again, but this person seemed to have disappeared.
Fu Jin'an only said this and said nothing more. He took out a stack of banknotes from his arms and put them on his pillow. Just as Luo Ran was about to refuse, he heard the man say again: "This is what Jiuchen gave two people." Please keep the child's red seal."
Luo Ran swallowed her words, thinking that it was Lu Jiuchen anyway, so she could just find an opportunity to pay it back to Yuanyuan in the future, so as not to waste time entangled with him.
Seeing that she didn't refuse, Fu Jin'an was obviously in a much better mood. Regardless of whether she was standing by the bed or not, he lay down comfortably facing inward, squeezing Qing Ning's little hand, and pulling Jing Xing's tender face.
The two children fell asleep deeply after eating, and they didn't wake up after all the tossing.
After standing for a while, Luo Ran's feet were a little sore. He remembered what he had just said and said, "If you don't agree, I will ask dad to strengthen the guards around the yard from tomorrow on. You can never look at the child again."
Fu Jinan turned his back to her, with a smile on his lips, and said leisurely: "You really have a bad temper, and you can threaten people. Okay, every time from now on, you will take them to Zuixian Tower."
Calculating this, six times a month is acceptable.
Luo Ran frowned slightly: "Too many times will make people suspicious. Let's go back to the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month."
Fu Jinan turned around with a smile and raised his forehead with one hand: "You can bargain, and I can reduce the price from six days to two days."
Luo Ran turned away and avoided his gaze: "I'm doing this for your own good."
Specifically why it was for his own good, she didn't say. Fu Jin'an doesn't care, it's just the reputation that he despises the most. But thinking about their mother and son, he said with a kind heart: "Let's do this, every three days of the month, no more."
"good."
Luo Ran didn't hesitate this time.
Fu Jinan suddenly felt something hard under his arm. He reached out and touched it. It turned out to be a book.
He sat up and leaned on the head of the bed, flipping it twice with the help of the weak candlelight, and raised the corners of his eyes slightly: "Sun Tzu's Art of War?"
Seeing that he had no intention of leaving immediately, Luo Ran felt a little tired from standing, so he simply turned around and sat down on the couch by the window.
"What, you want to learn the art of war to deal with me?"
Fu Jinan found it a bit funny. Few women liked reading such obscure books.
Luo Ran didn't say anything, but one sentence went around in his mind several times, and he finally couldn't help but ask: "Is it you who made the Fu family come to propose marriage?"
Fu Jinan flipped through the book casually, and there were occasional notes on it, but he was unfamiliar with the content and his understanding was too superficial. When he heard Luo Ran's words, he casually responded: "Yes."
"Why?"
Luo Ran suddenly raised his voice.
Perhaps because he didn't expect her to be so excited, Fu Jin'an put down the book in his hand and looked at her. The sight and hearing of martial arts practitioners are unparalleled. He could see the expression on Luo Ran's face, and his brows couldn't help but twitch.
Then he said: "It's not for your own good."
Luo Ran: "For my own good?"
"right."
Fu Jinan thought for a while and felt that it would be okay to tell her about Feng Ming, so he told her the fates of the two people, and then talked about the secret exchange of fates.
Luo Ran didn't calm down for a while, and his whole body was frozen.
Could it be that in the previous life, the Fu family married him because of the so-called "phoenix fate", just to help the third prince stop the crown prince?
For the sake of an illusory horoscope, she ruined her life and caused her father to die tragically?
Fu Jin'an saw her sitting motionless, as if she had fallen into some huge whirlpool, and his heart suddenly stung.
