Chapter 15: Living Together
Ran Qiunian's gift on the old lady's birthday was very successful, and the novelty of "Hundred Birds and Phoenix" and "Heavenly Maiden Scattered Flowers" opened the eyes of many people who went to Ran's Mansion to attend the birthday banquet, and Ran Qiunian earned enough face for himself.
But on the contrary, it was the dim Liu Yunyao who was set off under the light of Ran Qiunian.
She originally planned to use her filial piety to copy scriptures for a month to break into the daughters of various big families in Splendid City, but under the interference of Ran Qiunian, no one remembered that there was an extra grandchild surnamed Liu in Ran Mansion.
Liu Yunyao looked at the rewards that were continuously sent into Ran Qiunian's courtyard, her eyes were red with jealousy, she closed the door, smashed all the cheap vases and porcelain cups in the house, and lost her temper.
"Liu Yunyao, what the hell are you doing?"
Liu Yufei, who was disturbed by the movement in Liu Yunyao's room, flew over to take a look, and looked displeased: "Just a little bit, you disturbed my Wen Shu." ”
"My brother is idle, as long as he shrinks into the house and reads all day long, and he doesn't look at how difficult our situation is in this mansion, then Ran Qiunian will ride on my head as a prestige, but I have to shut up even when I am angry."
Liu Yunyao's mood was a little unstable, but she still remembered to lower her voice and didn't dare to let others hear the movement.
"Sister, where are all your previous shrewdness? It's just a girl who hasn't seen the world, and she can only take care of you with the support of the old lady. Without the old lady on her side, she may not be your opponent. ”
Liu Yufei frowned, and he didn't look down on Liu Yunyao's jealousy and distortion, but thinking that Liu Yunyao still had some use value, he lowered his voice and showed her a way.
"What do you mean, brother?"
Liu Yunyao's face turned pale, and she bit her lip and came to a conclusion.
Liu Yufei watched Liu Yunyao run out of the house impatiently, then stroked his sleeves, and exited Liu Yunyao's messy room as usual, closing the door carefully.
The selfishness in the back house, he still can't look at it. The next spring festival is where he will show his ambitions, and these dirty things are enough for his mother and Liu Yunyao to deal with.
Ran Qiunian didn't know what happened to the brother and sister on the other side, but she only knew that as soon as she woke up, an undesirable person would live in the courtyard.
"Sister Liu is so early, why didn't you go to my grandmother's place today to show filial piety, but brought so many people to my small courtyard as guests?"
When Ran Qiunian was still freshening up and changing, he heard a noise from outside the courtyard, and when he came out, Liu Yunyao seemed to be in his own yard, directing his subordinates to go in and out unceremoniously, and immediately laughed.
Ran Qiunian strode to Liu Yunyao's side, quite unpolite.
"What did my sister say, it seems that my sister really misunderstood my sister. So my sister went to ask my father to allow you and my sisters to live in the same house, so as to resolve the estrangement and cultivate some sisterhood. ”
Ran Qiunian's face darkened, what kind of bullshit sisterhood, this Liu Yunyao really didn't blush, the relationship between them has long been endless, what does it mean to make this gesture now?
"You're using my father to press me? Believe it or not......"
Ran Qiu was displeased, and was about to drive people away, but was intercepted by Liu Yunyao.
"Sister, isn't she going to sue your grandmother again? The father is the head of the family, can't he decide where his daughter lives? Don't embarrass your grandmother, sister. ”
Ran Qiunian was blocked by Liu Yunyao: "You! But I couldn't help but think about the deep meaning of Liu Yunyao's words.
Indeed, this matter is not big or small, if every time she encounters something unpleasant, she will go to her grandmother to complain, it is inevitable that there will be some small fuss, and she does not want to always bother her grandmother to take action.
"Sister Liu laughed, I'm just afraid that my yard is too small and can't stand such a big pomp and circumstance as Sister Liu, so I won't be well entertained."
"My sister laughed, who doesn't know that this Ran Mansion is the most luxurious and expensive place in addition to my grandmother's residence."
Liu Yunyao saw that Ran Qiunian really didn't go to the old lady to complain, and she was proud in her heart, it seems that the old lady is not a panacea, and her father still has the final say in this mansion.
"Since Sister Liu doesn't dislike it, Qingxi, call someone to clean up the east wing and let Sister Liu live in it."
Although Ran Qiunian was still a little distant, she didn't lose her temper and chase people away, her eyes rolled and she had an idea.
"Miss, you don't have to be so wronged, the slave and maid go and tell the old lady."
Qingxi had already been ashamed of Liu Yunyao's words, and he was angry. Now seeing that Ran Qiunian seems to want to compromise, he is even more upset for Ran Qiunian.
"Don't make a fuss, a little thing between sisters, why bother grandmother. Qingxi, hurry up and send someone to clean up the east wing. ”
Ran Qiunian stopped Qingxi, who was upset about himself, and said word by word to Liu Yunyao, who was proud, and ordered with an expressionless face.
"Sister Liu went to the East Wing to take a look, what was missing, you can tell Qingxi together, don't be embarrassed. You get busy first, and I won't bother. ”
Liu Yunyao didn't want to push people too hard all at once, if Ran Qiunian didn't care about it and really wanted to make trouble with the old lady, according to the old lady's short-term temperament, none of them would be able to get along, and Liu Yunyao would accept it when she saw it.
Looking at the back of Liu Yunyao and his party in the distance, Ran Qiunian paused and turned to go in the opposite direction.
She has to go and talk to the people on the eldest brother's side, lock the small door between the two courtyards, and in the future, the two sides will still enter and exit through the main gate, lest this Liu Yunyao have to play any tricks in the future, and it will not be good to affect the eldest brother.
Today is when Xiao Yin is inspecting the store, but unfortunately, he is not in the house, so he doesn't know about the episode that happened between Ran Qiunian and Liu Yunyao.
When Xiao Yin returned to the house, it was already three poles in the morning, and when he passed the courtyard, he saw that the originally unobstructed small door was locked, so he stopped and asked what happened today.
"Young master, I'm afraid the eldest lady is going to be lively for a while. I don't know if the eldest lady can handle it? ”
Xiao Yin thought of the girl's unwilling and eccentric temperament, so he suppressed the worry in his heart and didn't say anything, but believed that Ran Qiunian, who had made great progress recently, was enough to deal with Liu Yunyao's little tricks.
"Send someone to keep an eye on the movement over there, if the Liu family has any actions that should not be done, report it in time, and allow you to strike first if necessary, and put Nian'er's safety first."
After thinking about it, Xiao Yin still sent his subordinates to pay attention to Ran Qiunian's safety, just in case.
Because of Liu Yunyao, Ran Qiunian locked the small door connecting himself and Xiao Yin's courtyard, and the evening communication in the future would be avoided, which was very unpleasant.
"Miss, why do you have to tolerate that Liu Yunyao so much during the day? The slaves and maids are all upset for you, why did the uncle disregard your wishes so much and forcibly arrange Liu Yunyao into your yard. ”
Qingxi has always been loyal, as long as Ran Qiu reads an order, she dares to rush up and drive Liu Yunyao and his party out.
"Don't worry, since Liu Yunyao dares to live in, why don't I dare to let her live in?"
Ran Qiunian said coldly: "Look at my confrontation with her these days, which time did she take advantage?" It's good to live right under my nose, and I'm going to see what she wants to do next. ”
was reminded by Ran Qiunian, Qingxi also remembered that Liu Yunyao had been squeezed by her own young lady a few times ago, and she was immediately full of confidence in Ran Qiunian and stopped complaining.
I have to say that moving into her own yard is really the stupidest decision Liu Yunyao has ever made.
Ran Qiunian thought coldly, the lights in the east wing were bright, presumably he was still counting things, Ran Qiunian stood up and walked to the bed: "Qingxi, turn off the lights, go to bed early today, tomorrow, there will be a good show to watch." ”
Qingxi nodded, stepped forward to turn off the lights, and exited the house in the darkness.
In the morning, Ran Qiunian got up as usual, asked Qingxi to take the book cage, and after cleaning up, he had to go to his grandmother to wait for the school test.
"Did my sister sleep well last night? You're going to say hello to your grandmother early in the morning, right? It just so happens that I haven't said hello to my grandmother yet, so why don't you go along? ”
When I walked into the yard, I remembered that Liu Yunyao moved over yesterday, and I was in a good mood, but I was interrupted by Liu Yunyao at an inopportune time, and I suddenly lost interest.
"Are you sure you want to go with me?" Ran Qiunian looked at Liu Yunyao, who was dressed up, with a smile, meaning something.
Maybe it was because everything went too smoothly yesterday, which made Liu Yunyao a little carried away for a while, and was reminded by Ran Qiunian, she remembered the first few times she went to see the old lady, and none of them were put in.
She only forcibly moved into Ran Qiunian's yard yesterday, and then went over with Ran Qiunian at this time, didn't she make it clear that she was going to be scolded by the old lady? If you don't get it right, the old lady is unhappy, so she has to pack up her baggage and move back to her original residence, isn't it smiling and generous?
After thinking about it, Liu Yunyao's idea of following Ran Qiunian to go over and take some advantage faded, and she changed her mouth with a look of embarrassment on her face.
"I remember that I didn't go with you before I said goodbye to my father and mother, and there were many people in the province, and my grandmother was tired."
Ran Qiunian didn't wait for Liu Yunyao to finish speaking, smiled, and walked out of the courtyard directly. Leaving Liu Yunyao alone, seeing Ran Qiunian so careless about herself, she couldn't help but sink her face.
The weather is getting warmer, and it is about to heat up, the flowers and plants in the house are thriving, and the scenery is very pleasant.
It's a pity that I'm not in the mood now.
When she came to her grandmother's yard, her grandmother had already heard about yesterday's events, and had been waiting for Ran Qiunian to come to her to make the decision, but she didn't see anyone for a long time, and she was distressed, so she saw Ran Qiunian stepping into her yard as usual.
"My thoughts, you have been wronged." As soon as my grandmother saw Ran Qiunian, she couldn't help but hug the person tightly in her arms, "If such a big thing happens, and you don't tell your grandmother, can your grandmother still support you?" ”
"Grandmother, don't worry, Nian'er is not a bully, although Liu Yunyao hates it, there is also a sentence that is right, but it is just a trivial matter, and there is no need to bother grandmother to go out."
With a confident look on her face, Ran Qiunian raised her head from the old lady's arms.
