Luo Ran paused while holding the tea and asked, "Did Qiqin say anything else?"
Youqing whispered: "Aunt Qin also said that she felt that the birth of Mrs. Shizi looked wrong."
Luo Ran raised his eyebrows slightly and lowered his eyes: "Go and tell her that I will meet with her later."
Youqing: "Okay. Then the prince's wife..."
Luo Ran thought for a moment and said, "She probably still wants to take advantage of Liu Meng'er. Find someone to keep an eye on for a while and don't let others take advantage of the loophole. If you encounter suspicious people, arrest them first and wait until everyone has dispersed."
"Mrs. Shen, so you are here. I asked you why I didn't see you just now."
Luo Ran was talking to You Qing when he heard a familiar voice not far away. He looked over and saw that it was Mrs. Xie.
I saw that her coldness and arrogance when she had just faced him were completely gone, replaced by enthusiasm.
The aunt's face showed the same surprised expression as her own.
Looking at the girl next to Wei, Luo Ran immediately understood what was going on, got up and walked to the other side.
"Sister Ran!"
Lu Yuanyuan came over happily.
Luo Ran looked at her sweating profusely, took out a handkerchief and gently wiped it for her, nodded her forehead affectionately, and deliberately said with a straight face: "Where have you gone so crazy? You also said you would help me take care of the child. Well, no one was seen in the blink of an eye."
Lu Yuanyuan knew that she was teasing him, but he didn't take it seriously. He held her arm and acted coquettishly: "Sister Ran, don't worry. Aunt Luo and the others are here, and they all think I'm in the way!"
Pouting with deliberate dissatisfaction.
Looking at Lu Yuanyuan's rosy little face, and thinking about Mrs. Xie's attitude towards her aunt just now, Luo Ran suddenly said: "By the way, I just saw the Miss Xie family."
The expression on Lu Yuanyuan's face froze, and she responded lightly: "Oh."
Luo Ran tilted his head and looked at her: "Why, don't you like her?"
Lu Yuanyuan said: "It's not that I don't like her, it's just that our personalities are different and we can't play together, but she has a pretty good relationship with Sister Wan."
Luo Ran thought about it for a moment. Xie Ying looked very quiet, and she did have a temperament similar to Yue Wanhe's.
Luo Ran glanced at Lu Yuanyuan again and asked: "Yuanyuan, I remember you are one year younger than me. You will be sixteen after the Chinese New Year."
Lu Yuanyuan nodded: "Yes."
Luo Ran: "Then Prince Qing and Princess have no plans to marry you?"
Lu Yuanyuan's face suddenly turned red, she lowered her head and whispered, "I mentioned it, but I don't even like it."
Luo Ran was curious: "Then what do you like?"
Lu Yuanyuan still lowered her head and said: "I don't know either. In short, my father likes those playboys like my eldest brother. I get annoyed when I look at them, so I don't want to marry such a person."
"Then what do you think of my cousin?"
Luo Ran asked suddenly.
Sure enough, when Lu Yuanyuan heard this, she felt as if someone had stepped on her tail. She screamed and quickly covered her mouth, revealing a pair of smart eyes: "Sister Ran, how did you know?"
Luo Ran still pretended not to understand: "What do I know?"
Lu Yuanyuan blushed, leaned on her shoulder, and said arrogantly: "Yes, I just like Mr. Shen, what do you think?"
After saying that, he raised his little head and looked generous.
Even Youqing on the side couldn't help but laugh.
Luo Ran looked surprised: "You like my cousin?!"
Seeing that she was still pretending, Lu Yuanyuan suddenly felt shy and went up to tickle her. Luo Ran was laughing so hard that she was out of breath. After the two of them had had enough trouble, they sat aside and talked calmly.
Lu Yuanyuan leaned on Luo Ran and said slowly: "Sister Ran, there are some things I dare not say before you get married. Now that Brother Fu is not here, I will tell the truth."
Luo Ran was slightly surprised and didn't understand why this matter was related to Fu Jin'an.
Lu Yuanyuan said: "I have liked Mr. Shen before, even before he failed to win the top prize. At that time, you hadn't returned to Beijing yet!"
Luo Ran couldn't help but said: "How old were you then?"
Lu Yuanyuan recalled for a while and said: "I must be twelve years old. Once I went to the street to find my eldest brother. You know, what kind of place could my eldest brother go to? Before I could go in, I was treated like a monkey by a group of people. They all surrounded me. I was so scared at that time. Mr. Shen happened to be passing by, and he made those people feel ashamed with just a few words. Only then did I realize that the sword in the hands of Brother Fu is not the only one who is powerful in this world. "
Luo Ran didn't expect that the two of them had such a story, and he was even more happy: "You fell in love with my cousin later?"
Lu Yuanyuan nodded shyly, straightened up immediately, raised her hand and swore: "Sister Ran, don't worry, no one but you and I have told this matter. Even Sister Wan and Sister Qing don't know about it. Don't be angry!"
Luo Ran asked in confusion: "Why am I angry?"
Lu Yuanyuan came over, stared at her eyes, and finally frowned and asked, "You really don't know?"
Luo Ran: "What do I know?"
After hesitating for a moment, Lu Yuanyuan said: "Master Shen likes you, don't you know?"
"Cousin? Do you like me?"
Luo Ran pointed to his nose and asked, then shook his head with a wry smile: "Yuanyuan, what are you thinking in your little head? My cousin is just my cousin, and he only treats me as his sister!"
Lu Yuanyuan looked at her like she was a fool: "Sister Ran, thanks to my eldest brother, I always say you are smart. My eldest brother, sister Wan, including sister Qing, we all know that Mr. Shen likes you. It turns out that only you don't know. I I thought you didn’t like him, so that’s why…”
Luo Ran was stunned.
Lu Yuanyuan comforted: "Forget it, it's okay if you didn't know before. You asked me about it today, otherwise Brother Fu will definitely kill me!"
Luo Ran's head is still a little messy. He really can't understand why his cousin likes him.
Her secret cousin knew all about it, so the last time her cousin asked her to pretend that the two of them were "in love"...didn't she hurt her cousin's heart?
Thinking of this, Luo Ran was extremely upset.
If she had known what her cousin was thinking, she would have said nothing to cooperate with him, and ended up marrying Fu Jinan, how sad her cousin would have been at that time!
Finally, he looked at Lu Yuanyuan seriously: "Yuanyuan, tell me the truth. Do you really like your cousin?"
Lu Yuanyuan almost swore.
Luo Ran held her hand and said: "Yuanyuan, you are very good! My cousin is also very good! I will help you, just in case..."
Lu Yuanyuan said hurriedly: "Sister Ran, don't worry, if Mr. Shen really doesn't like me, I will never stalk you! After all, I am also the princess of Dajin, and I still want this face!"
Luo Ran is not worried about this. What she is worried about is: "Silly girl, I'm not talking about this. I'm saying that if my cousin doesn't have that intention, you are not allowed to be sad or give up on yourself. Remember, you are Lu Yuanyuan. Okay Lu Yuanyuan!"
"Um!"
Lu Yuanyuan said seriously.
As soon as the two of them finished speaking, they saw Chun Yu coming over with a serious face. He came in and said, "Madam, your Excellency has locked up Chuntao next to the second young lady."
