Luo Ran looked at Yuan Shuyi's blushing face, put down the bird's nest in his hand, held her hand with his warm little hand and said: "You are a twin now, so you should be careful about everything. Dad also cares about you. Besides, you Didn't I say that we are a family, and a family should help each other."
Yuan Shuyi felt warm in his heart.
Luo Ran looked at her belly again: "Has the doctor checked her pulse again? Is my brother good?"
Yuan Shuyi nodded gently: "Well, I just came to see him this morning and said everything was fine, so I don't need to be too nervous."
Luo Ran agreed: "Isn't that right? Don't be stressed. The more nervous you are, the worse it will be for your health."
Yuan Shuyi looked at Luo Ran's gentle brows, and suddenly remembered that although the little girl in front of him was only sixteen years old, she was already a mother, and she had managed to survive alone in such an environment.
Thinking about it again, now that she is just taking care of the affairs of the house, and she still wants the Marquis to tell her to help her, thinking about this makes her feel even more distressed for Luo Ran.
He took her hand and said with eyes that both of them understood: "I'm sorry for you."
Luo Ran smiled and shook his head: "It's all over. Look at Ning'er and Jing Xing. If they are not fine now, I am fine too."
Yuan Shuyi nodded: "Well, we are all fine."
The two talked about Luo Ruxue's marriage again.
In fact, there was nothing to be busy with. The dowry company was arranged according to the prescribed rules, and the rest of the Li family was almost ready before anything happened. As for things like entertaining guests, it is not difficult for Yuan Shuyi, as long as he listens to the stewards' reports every day.
After eating the bird's nest, Luo Ran helped with some things before leaving.
The wind subsided in the afternoon, and the sun shone warmly on people. Luo Ran walked back and said to Chunyu: "Seeing that it is getting warmer day by day, go back to the warehouse to find some old leathers and find someone to sew them on them." Together, when it gets warmer in a few days, we will lay it out in the yard, and let Ning'er and his brother come out to bask in the sun at noon, they will definitely be happy."
Chunyu responded with a smile: "Yes, even though the little lady is still less than five months old, she is very happy every time she goes out."
When mentioning her daughter, Luo Ran always had a look of doting on her face unconsciously: "That little girl doesn't know who her temper will follow. She will definitely be a troublemaker when she grows up."
Chun Yu said: "I don't know who my little lady is like in terms of personality, but her appearance is very similar to you. Even the Marquis said she is exactly the same as you when you were a child."
-
Shen Mansion.
"Mother, are you looking for me?"
Shen Yuzhi had just returned from Dali Temple with blood stains on his body. Hearing that Wang was looking for him, he came over without even having time to change his clothes.
Mrs. Wang covered her handkerchief and waved her hand in disgust: "Go, go, change your clothes and come back! It's not bad luck!"
Mentioning his official position, Mrs. Wang became very angry. If he didn't get into the Imperial Academy, he had to go to Dali Temple. However, this child had big ideas since he was a child. His father didn't say anything, and he was even less useful. .
Shen Yuzhi raised his sleeves and smelled it. Suddenly he caught a glimpse of the stains accidentally stained on the hem of his clothes. He smiled and bowed: "Please forgive me, mother. The child will go back and change clothes right now."
I quickly took a shower and changed my clothes.
Mrs. Wang looked at her tall and tall son in a moon-white brocade robe and couldn't help but sigh: "How come you have grown so big in such a flash?"
Shen Yuzhi shook his head with a wry smile, stepped forward and held her arm to help her sit down, and said, "Xiqing is about to get married. Do you think my son should grow up?"
Thinking of her daughter, Wang couldn't help but sigh: "Yes, Qing'er is getting married, and I am getting old."
"Who said you are old? Last time you and Qing'er went out together, didn't some people think you were sisters?"
Shen Yuzhi is serious.
Wang was amused and patted his arm: "You kid, you should take other people's jokes seriously!"
Shen Yuzhi smiled and said nothing.
Mrs. Wang also put away her smile and said seriously: "It was your grandmother's intention to call you here today. You are also nineteen this year. Before, you always said that you would talk about major events in your life after the scientific examination. Now your sister is getting married. , you can’t put it off any longer. Today you and mother will get to know each other, is there a girl you like? "
Shen Yuzhi smiled and said: "Mother..."
"Stop it!"
Mrs. Wang quickly stopped him and said: "Don't try to fool me today. Whether it's there or not, you have to give me the answer!"
Shen Yuzhi smiled bitterly: "Mom, I have been studying all day and night these years. Do you think which girl I have talked to?"
Wang looked into his eyes carefully and asked, "Really?"
Shen Yuzhi's eyes flashed quickly and he shook his head: "No."
Mrs. Wang breathed a sigh of relief, then her expression changed again.
Shen Yuzhi felt funny: "What's wrong with you?"
After two breaths, Wang looked into his eyes and said cautiously: "Then what do you think of Ran'er?"
Shen Yuzhi tightened his hand on the tea cup and said calmly: "My cousin is very good."
Wang continued to ask: "Then, do you like...her?"
Shen Yuzhi raised his head, met his mother's eyes, and said nothing for a moment.
Mrs. Wang couldn't figure out what her son was thinking, and said anxiously and nervously: "It's just us, mother and son, today. You don't have to be embarrassed, let alone force it. If you like it, you just like it. Even if you don't like it, your grandmother won't force you."
Shen Yuzhi lowered his eyes, and all he could think about was that girl. She was shy and timid when he first met her, and then she became charming and smart after getting to know her. What's more, she was still thinking about the Shen family when she was pregnant alone. Strong look.
At first, he only regarded her as his aunt's child and treated her no differently than he treated Xi Qing. If there was any difference, he just felt more distressed.
When exactly it changed, he couldn't tell.
But he clearly remembered that day in the palace, when she personally told Song Qingyou that she liked him, he couldn't ignore the joy in his heart. Even knowing that was her excuse, it kept him unable to sleep for several nights.
"Have you asked Ran'er?"
Shen Yuzhi's palms were slightly moist, and there was a hint of expectation in his words unconsciously.
Seeing his look, Mrs. Wang breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Although your grandmother and I feel sorry for Ran'er, you are also my son, and I don't want you to feel wronged. So I want to ask you first, and then ask your father Go tell your uncle."
Like a basin of cold water being poured down his head, Shen Yu understood Luo Ran too well and knew that this was probably his mother's wishful thinking.
But in order not to hurt his mother's feelings for Luo Ran, Shen Yu knew: "No, it's better for the son to ask Ran'er himself."
Ms. Wang was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "You kid, you just said you didn't like anyone, now you've revealed your secret!"
Shen Yuzhi smiled and said nothing. He was still thinking about how to blame this matter on himself without hurting the feelings of the two families.
On the other side, Changying looked at the limping person in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Who would have thought that the commander of the Imperial Guard, who has always been favored by the emperor, would be in trouble with the emperor for the second time in just a few months. of the board.
Looking at the medicine bottle in his hand, Changying took a few steps to catch up: "Sir, should we go back to the guardhouse to take medicine or go back to the Duke's Mansion?"
Fu Jin'an paused for a moment and suddenly said: "Go to the Champion Hou's Mansion!"
Changying:……
