The fifteen-year-old girl always felt a little uncomfortable when talking about her marriage, but her face showed more helplessness.
Luo Ran couldn't tell what Xie Ying was really thinking at this moment, so he could only say dryly: "Congratulations to Miss Xie first."
Xie Ying shook her head, bit her lower lip lightly, and seemed to have made a lot of determination before saying: "My grandfather, he, he admires Mr. Shen very much..."
Seeing that Luo Ran didn't speak, she explained hurriedly: "Don't worry, I don't mean anything else. I just, just..."
Because he was anxious, he seemed a little incoherent.
Luo Ran sighed in his heart and comforted him: "Don't be impatient. If you have something to say, please speak slowly."
Xie Ying breathed a sigh of relief, calmed down, and said: "Princess Anzhen likes Mr. Shen. This is known to everyone in the capital. I will not take away people's love. In addition, the Xie family has rules: the daughter of the Xie family Never be a concubine!"
His face was full of determination.
Hearing this, Luo Ran was not moved by her courageous words. On the contrary, he was a little disgusted.
She picked up the tea and took a sip, her attitude a little alienated: "Miss Xie, as the saying goes, everyone has their own ambitions. Your Xie family's family motto, I have no right to interfere. But have you ever thought that what you say will give another innocent person What are the consequences for women?”
Xie Ying was stunned. She didn't seem to expect Luo Ran to defend Lu Yuanyuan so much. She almost knocked over the tea cup in her anxiety: "Listen to me, I didn't mean that..."
"I just, just...hey!"
Xie Ying slapped her face in frustration and said, "It's all my fault that I'm so stupid that I can't even speak clearly!"
Although she tried hard to explain, Luo Ran was always calm, and the atmosphere between the two was a bit awkward.
In the pavilion outside the house, Fu Jinan didn't hear any movement in the house for a long time. He frowned slightly and looked at Lu Jiuchen: "It took you so long to hire a doctor, but you don't even have a doctor in this village?"
Lu Jiuchen said with a smile: "Why are you angry at me? Don't worry, Shanning is not as innocent as you think, and he will not be deceived by others."
Fu Jinan raised his eyes and gave him a dangerous look.
Lu Jiuchen hurriedly raised his hands: "I said it wrong, I was wrong! Shan Ning is simple-minded and kind-hearted. You have to protect her and don't let others deceive her!"
Fu Jinan was too lazy to pay attention to him, and looked back at the house worriedly, but he only thought in his mind: The little woman woke up early in the morning, went up the mountain again, and hasn't eaten breakfast yet.
Lu Jiuchen felt funny when he saw his worried look, and reminded: "What you are worried about now should not be Shan Ning, but yourself. Do you think it is really that simple for Xie Ying to appear here?"
Fu Jinan sneered: "It seems that Prince Xuan's Mansion needs to be reorganized."
He didn't believe in any coincidence, it could only be that someone leaked his whereabouts.
Lu Jiuchen nodded in agreement, and then said, "What are you going to do, old guy Xie Hang? Speaking of which, there's still no movement from Chen County?"
Fu Jinan shook his head.
Lu Jiuchen suddenly said: "The prince has been a bit unstoppable recently, do you want me to help you..."
Fu Jinan said: "No need."
Lu Jiuchen suddenly thought of something again and said, "Do you remember Li Yuren?"
Fu Jinan was confused for a moment and then nodded.
Lu Jiuchen said: "He is Li Yutang's younger brother. I heard that he originally wanted to take the imperial examination, but later he didn't know how to join the military. After being introduced by the third prince, he is now following Liu Zimo."
Fu Jinan chuckled: "It seems that the Li family is not giving up yet."
The two of them were talking, and after about half a cup of tea, the boy who went to ask for the doctor finally came back out of breath, followed by an old man carrying a medicine box. The old doctor was sweating profusely. When he saw Fu Jinan and Lu Jiuchen hurriedly knelt down to salute and say hello.
Lu Jiuchen was the first to speak out: "Okay, no need to be polite. Come in quickly and help Miss Xie take a look at her injuries."
After checking Xie Ying's pulse, the old doctor confirmed that her foot was indeed sprained and slightly swollen. Fortunately, no bones were injured, but she still couldn't walk and needed to rest for a while.
Because this was Lu Jiuchen's Zhuangzi, and because he was a little unhappy with Xie Ying's words just now, Luo Ran didn't even bother to be polite and sent her out directly.
During this busy period, the sun was already high. Seeing that Fu Jinan and Lu Jiuchen seemed to be still talking, he went back to the yard to rest.
The two stayed in Zhuangzi for half a day. Luo Ran couldn't bear to worry about his two children, so he rejected someone's suggestion to stay here for a few days and hurried back to his mansion before dark.
When Qing Ning saw her mother coming back, she shed tears of grievance.
Fu Jinan just stretched out his hand to hug her, but the little girl turned her head and dodged her. Instead, she stretched out her little arms towards her mother.
Of course Luo Ran was happy to see his daughter getting close to him. While holding Qing Ning in his arms, he teased Jing Xing into the house, leaving someone several steps behind with a dark face, but neither the mother nor the son noticed.
I had no choice but to follow him in.
As soon as she entered the room, Qing Ning turned her face away proudly and did not look at him.
This made Fu Jinan confused. He leaned over and tried to grab Qing Ning's little hand and coaxed: "Ning'er doesn't know daddy anymore?"
Luo Ran also looked at his daughter curiously.
But Qing Ning just twisted her little face, her cheeks were bulging, and she looked angry.
Seeing this, Luo Ran looked at Aunt Gui in confusion.
Aunt Gui's face was full of guilt: "Your Majesty, Princess, please forgive me. I was negligent and said the wrong thing."
Fu Jinan's face turned cold.
Luo Ran was not in a hurry to blame, but first asked about the reason.
It turned out that Qing Ning and Jing Xing got up early in the morning and searched around but couldn't find their father or mother. The little girl was a little unhappy, but her grandma and the maids played with each other for a while and then forgot about it.
When she woke up from her nap at noon, before she saw her mother, the little girl lost her temper and shouted "Mother, mother, mother, mother".
Aunt Gui didn't pay attention for a moment and blurted out: "Miss, be good, daddy took mother out, and when she grows up, let the prince take her out to play."
So, the little girl took her grandma's words to heart and thought that her father had taken her mother away, so she could not find her. This is about holding a grudge.
Luo Ran didn't know whether to laugh or cry after hearing this.
Some couldn't believe it: "How old is she? Do you really understand?"
Seeing that the princess didn't blame her, Aunt Gui breathed a sigh of relief. She glanced at the prince carefully and said, "To tell you the truth, a one-and-a-half-year-old child has already begun to have memories. What's more, our young lady is naturally smart and will understand."
Luo Ran glanced at her daughter. She knew that her daughter and son would act based on people's faces when they were a few months old. Whenever they wanted to do something bad, they would always observe the expressions of adults first.
If she was happy, the two little guys would be upset, but if she kept a straight face that day, the little guys would be more well-behaved than anyone else.
Fortunately, children's grudges come and go quickly, and they are completely forgotten after a night's sleep.
But Fu Jinan took Nanny Gui's words to heart and kept ignoring him for fear that his daughter would take revenge on him. After breakfast the next day, he didn't rush to the palace. Instead, he hugged his sister and brother to coax him. Play with them.
Luo Ran listened to the clear laughter of the siblings and saw someone lifting Qing Ning above his head and riding on his shoulders. He couldn't help but said: "Don't spoil her."
Fu Jinan didn't take it seriously. He put Qing Ning on his left shoulder, lifted it with his right hand, and in a blink of an eye, he put Jing Xing on his right shoulder. Jing Xing, who had always been reserved and steady, also let out a laugh like a silver bell.
People say you don't care for grandchildren, but Luo Ran knew that the man in front of him had lost his mother since he was a child, and it would be better to have no father. He wanted his two children to receive complete love at an early age, and she would not stop him.
The family of four was having a good time when Grandma Wang came again, with a little anger on her face.
