Chapter 463: Sharp and shrewd little niece

Cen Xiqin listened to Cen Lan's words and was hit again! Why? Why does it feel like the third uncle doesn't like to see her!

Cen Xiqin said with some grievances: "Okay, then the third uncle and the sixth sister, I will leave first." ”

Cen Xiqin is a very smart girl, and naturally she can see that Cen Lan is different from Cen Xiyan, let's just say that yesterday, Cen Lan met with everyone in the Cen family, and she was relatively cold to others, but she obviously had a different attitude towards Cen Xiyan.

Although she couldn't understand why Cen Lan was so special to Cen Xiyan, this was not the time to explore, so she didn't ask anything and was ready to leave.

Cen Xiyan nodded at Cen Xiqin and said, "Then Seventh Sister, you can go back first." ”

After Cen Xiqin left, there were only two people left in the hall, Cen Lan and Cen Xiyan.

Cen Lan looked at Cen Xiyan, her eyes were far away and nostalgic, and she didn't speak for a long time.

In the end, it was Cen Xiyan who couldn't stand Cen Lan's eyes, and took the lead in breaking the silence, "Third uncle, you came to me, is there anything else you want to tell me?" ”

Cen Lan finally came back to her senses, smiled gently at Cen Xiyan, and said, "You are very much like your mother. ”

Cen Xiyan didn't expect that Cen Lan's first sentence to her when she came over today was such a sentence, she was slightly stunned for a moment, and then said: "Third uncle is saying that I look very much like my mother?" ”

Cen Lan nodded, "Yes, it's very similar." ”

When he saw the girl in front of him, he couldn't help but think of her mother.

"Oh." Cen Xiyan was not surprised, from the way Cen Biao and Cen Lan looked at her, she guessed that she should look very similar to the biological mother of this body. She paused, suddenly looked directly into Cen Lan's eyes, and asked, "The third uncle is very familiar with my mother?" ”

When Cen Lan heard this, she was also stunned for a moment, and then said, "Naturally, it is cooked." "I've lived in the same house for a few years, how can I not be familiar with it.

Before he could react at all, Cen Xiyan asked what this sentence meant.

Cen Xiyan looked directly at Cen Lan and asked, "How familiar are you?" ”

It was only at this time that Cen Lan realized that Cen Xiyan's attitude was wrong, his brows frowned slightly, and he asked, "Xiyan, what do you mean by this?" ”

Cen Xiyan didn't beat around the bush, and said directly: "My mother, although she is only my father's concubine, can she be regarded as half of the third uncle's sister-in-law, right?" The third uncle seems to be very concerned about my mother? Does the third uncle think this is appropriate? Even if she has been dead for many years now, we can't be completely careless about something, right......?"

Cen Xiyan really didn't want Cen Lan to have any ulterior relationship with his mother, because if that was the case, it would definitely be a scandal for the Cen family! The Cen family may not do anything to Cen Lan, but they definitely can't tolerate Gu Tinglan, and the cause of Gu Tinglan's death back then was too intriguing.

Cen Xiyan's words can be said to be very ruthless, which made Cen Lan feel very embarrassed, and an embarrassed look appeared on his face.

He was silent for a moment, looked at Cen Xiyan, and said seriously, "Do you suspect that I have an improper relationship with your mother?" ”

Cen Xiyan and Cen Lan looked at each other, their expressions were calm, but their words were still sharp, "The performance of the third uncle is easy for people to misunderstand like this, isn't it?" ”

Cen Lan was silent for a moment, then sighed and confessed: "That's right, your mother is the woman I like, but between us, there is no relationship that transcends boundaries as you imagined. ”

"Oh." Cen Xiyan was a little relieved, but still said: "Even if it is a secret love, the third uncle should pay attention to it, although my mother has been dead for many years, but I think that the third uncle should also think more about her reputation, the reputation of the Cen family, and your own reputation, third uncle, what do you think?" ”

Cen Xiyan was so sharp that Cen Lan was a little overwhelmed, he didn't expect that this girl who seemed to be indifferent and quiet would have such a sharp and ruthless temperament.

He looked embarrassed, and was speechless for a long time before he said: "It's the third uncle who owes it, I will pay attention ......to it in the future, and then sighed and said: "Your mother is no longer alive, don't worry, I won't say anything to others and damage your mother's reputation, but, Xiyan, you don't have to be so defensive about the third uncle, right?" I'm your elder, and I care about you, it's a normal thing. ”

Cen Xiyan understands that Cen Lan is special to him, and to put it bluntly, it is just because of her mother's empathy.

"Xiyan is not a person who doesn't know what to do, of course I can accept the love of my elders." Cen Xiyan looked at Cen Lan and said calmly.

In fact, this sounds polite, but it is very alienated, saying that it is accepting the love of the elders, which is to imply Cen Lan not to treat her too differently from the other young masters and young ladies of the Cen family.

Cen Lan naturally heard the meaning of Cen Xiyan's words, his eyes darkened slightly, but he quickly returned to normal, changed the topic, and asked, "All these years, have you been doing well outside?" ”

Cen Xiyan nodded and said bluntly: "It's not bad, it's more comfortable than being in the mansion." ”

Hearing Cen Xiyan's straightforward truth, Cen Lan couldn't help laughing, "You speak directly." ”

Cen Xiyan hooked the corners of his lips and said deliberately: "Does the third uncle also think that my temperament is very unpleasant?" ”

"Nope." Cen Lan shook her head and said, "You are very good like this, compared to many reserved and noble ladies in this capital, it is much more real." Speaking of this, Cen Lan's expression suddenly became serious, and he said: "However, you can do this in front of the third uncle, but don't be like this in front of everyone, it's too straightforward, it's easy to offend people, and it's easy to recruit villains, and you will suffer." ”

Cen Xiyan looked at Cen Lan's eyes, carefully observed the changes in his expression, and then judged that what Cen Lan said really thought so, and he was seriously admonishing her and doing good for her.

The expression on her face suddenly softened a little, and said, "Thank you for the third uncle's suggestion, Xiyan knows." ”

At this time, Cen Lan thought for a while, and said: "I didn't stop you from sending you out of the house back then, I also thought that you were outside the house, looking bitter, but after all, you will live more comfortably, and life may not be sadder than in the house......"

Cen Xiyan couldn't help but raise her eyebrows when she heard this, why, Cen Lan also felt that if she grew up in Cen Mansion, her life might not be easy? Or...... You don't necessarily live long, do you?!

A concubine who has no mother and is not concerned by her father and grandmother, her life in the house can be imagined, and there are still many people in the house who are hostile to her, Miss Cen Liu was too young at that time, a child who has no ability to protect herself at all, and any accident can really happen.

But even after leaving Cen Mansion, it turned out that Miss Cen Sixth did not escape the catastrophe, and fell off the cliff on the way to Qingyuan Town, and her soul returned to the west, and she was possessed by her otherworldly soul......

Of course, this is her most secret thing, she won't tell Cen Lan, this is her biggest secret, even Mo Xianyun, she didn't think to tell him to know......

Cen Lan chatted with Cen Xiyan for a while, mostly inquiring about her life outside, but Cen Xiyan didn't say much to Cen Lan, only said that she had been in Qingyuan Town, living a good life, very comfortable, and so on.

Cen Xiyan has too many secrets, and many things can't be said to Cen Lan, and she is afraid that she will say too much, so that Cen Lan will find out something.

After all, she is a person who has traveled through another world, and she has seen a lot of knowledge over the years, and her experience and vision are incomparable to those noble ladies who live in a high gate and deep mansion.

Cen Xiyan could see that Cen Lan was a very keen man, and he was also a person who had traveled abroad for many years and had seen extraordinary knowledge, if he talked a lot, in case he noticed something, it would be more troublesome.

The conversation between the two people was almost cold several times, it can be said that Cen Lan has been looking for words, and Cen Xiyan responded politely and detachedly.

Cen Lan sighed secretly, this little girl is very wary of him!

But that's okay, such a sharp and shrewd girl, living in this kind of cannibalistic mansion, is not easy to be bullied, will not suffer, and can better protect herself.

As for him, he believes that he will have a good relationship with this little niece.

Before leaving Jinglan Pavilion, Cen Lan took out a small wooden box from his arms, handed it to Cen Xiyan, and said, "When you were in the middle of the house, the third uncle didn't rush back, this is the gift that the third uncle made up for you, I hope you will like it." ”

Cen Xiyan took the box, opened it and saw that what was placed inside was actually a jade seal, she picked it up, turned it over, and saw that it was engraved with four beautiful seal characters of "Xiyan Small Seal".

Cen Lan looked at Cen Xiyan expectantly, hoping that she would show joy, but he was destined to be disappointed, because Cen Xiyan's face was as calm as ever, and there was no change in the slightest expression.

"Is this carved by you, Third Uncle?" Cen Xiyan took the seal and played for a while, then looked up and asked Cen Lan.

Cen Lan immediately nodded and said, "Yes, the craftsmanship is average, Xiyan should not be disgusted." ”

Of course, this is a modest statement, back then in the capital, the seal of the third master of the Cen family, but it was difficult to find a seal, that is, some people from big families, it was not easy to ask Cen Lan for a seal.

"Thank you, Uncle San, I like it very much." Cen Xiyan said politely and took the seal back into the box.

In fact, in her opinion, the craftsmanship of this seal carving is good, but it can only be regarded as an amateur level, compared to those master-level disciples in the Yuan Yin, it is still incomparable, but Cen Lan's heart, she must receive it.

Hearing Cen Xiyan say that he liked it, Cen Lan suddenly relieved his heart, and Jun also showed a gentle smile on his face.

Cen Xiyan looked at Cen Lan, and suddenly asked with a smile: "Third uncle, I'm not the only girl in Cen Mansion, you shouldn't have prepared a gift for me, right?" ”

When Cen Lan heard this, a trace of embarrassment suddenly appeared on her face, and she said, "Xiqin's, I will make up for it......"

He did only prepare one gift, it should be said that he had forgotten that Cen Xiqin was also a good time this year, and it seemed that he had to make up another gift in a hurry.

Cen Xiqin didn't know about this, if he knew, he would probably be hit by Cen Lan again! ――
