"Sister Xue, is this how this song is played? Why do I play differently than you? I did what you said......"

In Liu Ce's mansion, Miss Xue, who had finished a day of performing arts from Siming Zhai, was taken home by Song Yanran for dinner, and asked her to guide her piano skills by the way. Vertex Says X 23 U OM

Miss Xue laughed softly when she heard Song Yanran say this: "Sister, how can it be so fast?" How can it be so easy to get started without ten days and a half months?"

When Song Yanran heard this, she was immediately a little discouraged, puffed out her cheeks and said, "There's no shortcut?"

Seeing her beautiful eyes and light jaws, Miss Xue said to Song Yanran: "There is no shortcut to music and chess skills, even if the talent is good, it is not possible to practice hard without a foundation, so why bother sister?" ”

Song Yanran said dejectedly: "Which of those ladies is either poetry and song, or piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, there are always one or two proficient in it, but I don't know anything, alas, ......."

Miss Xue comforted: "Why do you need to be like this, sister, you also have your own strengths, such as this cooking and knitting skills, I sigh to myself that it is better to ......"

Song Yanran smiled and said to Miss Xue: "Sister Xue, don't comfort me, there is no way to force yourself to learn, otherwise how can you mix in the market to support yourself?" ”

Miss Xue sighed and said, "I don't want my sister to be such a miserable person......

Song Yanran smiled: "It's all over, in fact, it's good like this......" Speaking of this, she thought of Liu Ce again, with a happy and sweet face.

When Miss Xue saw her like this, she seemed to be touched by memories, and her heart was full of envy and at the same time extremely miserable......

Song Yanran came back to her senses and said to Miss Xue: "Don't say so much, Sister Xue, it's getting late outside, can you stay and sleep with me?"

Miss Xue said: "No, sister, I'd better go back to the inn and don't disturb ......."

Song Yanran took her hand and said, "It's not in the way, besides, the guest house costs a lot of money, you can move here in the future, and you can be a companion with me......"

Miss Xue hurriedly shook her head and said, "Then how can it be done?" I understand my sister's kindness, but ......"

Song Yanran stopped her and said, "It's decided first, Sister Xue will sleep with me, come with me, ......" said and got up and took her hand and walked to her boudoir.

Since Song Yanran lived in Liu Ce's house, Liu Ce has taken great care of her, and hired people to serve her first, not to mention that she has prepared a lot of bedding and sheets alone.

So far this winter, Song Yanran has never been frozen for a night, and she can sleep comfortably until dawn, which is completely different from the previous years of shrinking in the corner of the bed and relying on some inferior charcoal fire and a thin bed to stay up until sunrise.

In addition, Song Yanran, the finances of Liu Ce's family, can be used at will, and she will not ask at all. Not only Song Yanran was surprised by this, but even those subordinates were full of disbelief. First of all, Song Yanran is not Liu Ce's wife, and she has no right to control Liu Ce's finances, even if it is! There has never been such an example in the history of the Great Zhou Dynasty, where finances are generally controlled by men, and women are only responsible for keeping them at most, and once they need to use them, they must obtain the consent of their husbands.

However, Liu Ce is not a person from this world after all, he doesn't have so many ideas, he just wants to be kind to Song Yanran, try not to let her suffer anymore, and he has no time to take care of her when he goes out all the year round, so he simply handed over everything at home to her and let him take care of it at will.

Song Yanran naturally knew that this was Liu Ce's care and trust in her, and she was moved by her heart and never spent money indiscriminately, in addition to the necessary expenses, she occasionally went to the teahouse to listen to books and drink a cup of tea......

When the maid spread a thick quilt next to Song Yanran's bed, Miss Xue was full of emotion in her heart, so she had to nod and agree to her request.

Song Yanran happily hugged Miss Xue and smiled: "Sister Xue, we can have a good chat tonight......"

"You......" Miss Xue couldn't help but shake her head helplessly when she saw Song Yanran's pure and lovely appearance.

I don't know why, Miss Xue felt that she felt very close to Song Yanran when she came to Hanling, maybe it was her simple and kind state of mind that made her think of her former self, in short, every time she saw her, she could feel very familiar.

"Sister...... Can I ask you a question? Seeing that Song Yanran was preparing the bath bucket for herself, Miss Xue couldn't help but ask.

Song Yanran raised her white jade arm to test the temperature of the water in the bathtub, and said to Miss Xue: "Sister, if there is anything you want to ask, just ask, I know everything......"

Miss Xue said: "Sister, my sister knows that you have been in this mansion for some time, so when will you and General Liu get married?" ”

When Song Yanran heard this, she was stunned, this question has been bothering him, although she knows that she has no place for a man in her life except for Liu Ce, but at present, she only has an ambiguous relationship with him......

Thinking of this, Song Yanran diverted the topic and said to Miss Xue: "Sister Xue, the water temperature is good, you can try it, and I will prepare a dress for you......"

"Trouble my sister......" Miss Xue saw that Song Yanran refused to say or be reluctant, so she had to come to the clean room bathtub behind the screen and slowly fade off her dress......

When Song Yanran walked out of the room and wanted to check whether the door was closed tightly, she suddenly found that Liu Ce in the main hall was holding the dishes and chopsticks and swallowing the leftovers into his mouth......

"Brother Liu, when did you come back? You, don't eat it, it's cold...... I, I'll do it for you. ”

Seeing Liu Ce come back, Song Yanran was really happy in her heart, but when she saw that he was just eating cold dishes and cold rice, she felt distressed again, and immediately wanted to go to the kitchen to cook for him.

Liu Ce stopped her and said, "Yanran, no need, I've already finished eating......" After speaking, Liu Ce put down the dishes and chopsticks.

Song Yanran was slightly dissatisfied and said: "Every time you do this, don't you say hello when you come back?" ”

Liu Ce wiped his mouth and said apologetically: "There are too many things to deal with, I must pay attention to ...... next time."

Song Yanran smiled and said, "Brother Liu, I'm joking, look at your serious ......"

"Uh...... I'll clean it up. Liu Ce couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when he saw her smile, and quickly got up to clean up the dishes.

"I'll come......" Song Yanran stepped forward and took a step forward to take the dishes and chopsticks in Liu Ce's hand.

Liu Ce shook his head: "It's okay, Yanran, I said I'll clean it up, it's getting late, you go and rest quickly." ”

After speaking, she quickly put the dishes on the table into her hands, and Song Yanran could only shake her head helplessly when she saw this.

"By the way, Brother Liu, can I discuss something with you?"

Song Yanran, who followed Liu Ce to the kitchen, stood beside him and wanted to wash the dishes for him, but Liu Ce resolutely refused to let her interfere, Song Yanran naturally knew that Liu Ce didn't want to let herself work, and her heart couldn't help but flow warmly, so she spoke out in order to find a topic.

Liu Ce said without thinking about it: "Yes, you can decide for yourself, I agreed." ”

Song Yanran was stunned and said, "But you still don't know what I'm going to say......

Liu Ce smiled softly: "I will promise you anything......

Song Yanran felt that her eyes were a little moist, and said slowly: "Brother Liu, why are you so good to me?" ”

Liu Ce glanced back at her and said, "What are you crying for?" I'm not good to you, who else can I be good to? Do you want me to be fierce and vicious to you every day? After that, he washed the dishes and chopsticks......

Song Yanran covered her mouth and chuckled when she heard this, then looked at Liu Ce, who was busy, with affection, stood behind him and slowly stepped forward, stretched out her arms and gently wrapped her arms around his waist, and her head was tightly resting on his back.

Liu Ce was stunned, stopped his hands that were washing dishes, felt the intimate contact from Song Yanran, and froze in place.

"Brother Liu......" Song Yanran snuggled up behind him, closed her eyes and said softly: "Yanran has been helpless since she was a child, and no one has treated me so well since my mother passed away, I thought that I would never feel warmth in this life, but I really treated Yanran well, so I met you when I was most helpless, I am really happy and happy......"

Saying that, Song Yanran's thin hands around her waist tightened again, feeling the body temperature on Liu Ce's body, and continued: "However, I'm really afraid, I'm afraid that one day you will hate me and drive me away, I know that I am stupid, I can't do anything in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and I don't have the dignified atmosphere that everyone should have, but, Brother Liu, do you know?" I really don't want to leave you......"

Liu Ce said softly: "Yanran, how could I drive you away? You think too much, this is your home, always will be, and think I'm going to care about those people? If you want to be born, I'm not as good as you......"

Song Yanran's heart warmed, and her pretty eyes widened slightly: "Really? You'll never drive me away, will you? ”

Liu Ce nodded, he could feel the heartbeat of Song Yan behind him, constantly shaking his heartstrings.

"Marry me......" Song Yanran said this sentence that she had been thinking about for a long time very calmly, and took the initiative to express her heart to Liu Ce, "I want to be your wife......

Liu Ce was stunned, Song Yanran's words were what he had always wanted to say, He Shi took a deep breath and turned around and put his hands on her shoulders, looked at her beautiful eyes and said, "Yanran, give me a little time, okay?" When I'm done, I'll give you the most grand wedding and make you the most beautiful bride in the world, can you wait for me......"

Song Yanran's heart trembled, and she lightly opened her lips and said: "Brother Liu, Yanran is really happy to have your words, rest assured that I will always wait for the day when you come to marry me, even if it is ten or twenty years, I will wait for you for a lifetime......"

Liu Ce gently held her in his arms, smelled her body fragrance, and said gently: "Fool, it won't be that long, soon, believe me......"

"Brother Liu......" Seeing that Liu Ce took the initiative to hold himself in his arms and said these words again, Song Yanran knew that her relationship with him had been officially established, and her heart was indescribably sweet......

"Oops......"

Liu Ce, who was feeling the sweet and warm moment, was suddenly startled by Song Yanran's exclamation.

Song Yanran blushed and wanted to break away from Liu Ce's arms, but Liu Ce held her and refused to let go.

"What's wrong?" Liu Ce asked.

Song Yanran said: "I almost forgot to tell you, Miss Xue is in my room now, and I want her to rest here for one night......"

Liu Ceqi said: "Is that the girl Xue who sings in the teahouse?" ”

"Hmm......" Song Yanran felt the breath on Liu Ce's body, her heartbeat couldn't help but accelerate, and she felt her face flush and be hot, "Brother Liu, can you let go of me first......"

As soon as these words came out, Liu Ce hugged her tighter and said softly in her ear: "Your room is for her, why don't you go to my room tonight to sleep......

"I ......" Song Yanran was confused by this provocative words, and wanted to agree but wanted to refuse, and didn't know how to answer for a while under the contradiction.

Seeing her so embarrassed, Liu Ce suddenly smiled and said, "Tease you, silly girl......"

After speaking, he slowly let go of her and said, "Go and accompany her, I feel that this Xue girl seems to have experienced some hardships......

Song Yanran's eyes suddenly widened: "Brother Liu, how do you know?" ”

Liu Ce sighed and said: "Don't forget Yanran, I have also been wandering outside since I was a child, sleeping in the open every day, seeing all the warmth and coldness of the world, some things can still be felt......"

Song Yanran was speechless for a while, and then she remembered that Liu Ce's suffering was far more difficult and dangerous than herself......
