Fang Hanniang also sighed when she saw the old lady of Pingguo looking unbelieving: "Grandmother, in fact, no matter whether Lin Xiaogongzi looks at me differently or not, it is impossible for me to be with him." ”

The old lady of Pingguo nodded: "This is also true." After all......" she paused, not finishing.

Sometimes the old lady doesn't know whether supporting her granddaughter to join the king is good for her or hurtful to her.

The old lady of Pingguo changed the topic and said, "By the way, Princess Yujing invited you to come over tomorrow to talk to you, probably because she wanted to talk to you in person." ”

Fang Hanniang was a little distressed: "What is there to talk about." I don't like her son, and it's in vain to talk about it. ”

But when she thought about the current situation, she still sighed: "Forget it, I'll go to Princess Yujing's mansion tomorrow...... It's just that tomorrow's food and clothing will be almsgiving, and it seems that I can't go. ”

The old lady of Pingguo immediately said: "Then rest at home for two days." Nan, your kind-hearted grandmother knows, but you can't ignore your own body. It's so cold outside, you run outside every day, no matter how thick you are, what if you get a cold? ……”

Fang Hanniang had to comfort the old lady of Pingguo for a long time, and coaxed the old man so that he couldn't say a word, and then went to Pingguogong's study again.

Fang Hanniang, the cousin, came to the study, and the little servants of Pingguo Gong were already commonplace.

It's just that Fang Hanniang didn't expect that when she came over this time, her third cousin Ruan Chuxiao was also there.

Fang Hanniang politely saluted both Ping Guogong and Ruan Chuxiao.

It seemed that Fang Cai Ping Guogong was discussing with Ruan Chuxiao, and when he saw Fang Hanniang coming over, he couldn't help but glance at his son obliquely: "Okay, I'm going to discuss things with your cousin, you can go back." ”

looked like he was afraid that his son would surprise his niece.

Whether it's his father or his grandmother, they seem to be biased to the edge of the sky. Ruan Chuxiao muttered in his heart, but he was a mature young man after all, and he would not be jealous of Fang Hanniang because of this.

Ruan Chuxiao didn't pay attention to his father, and looked straight at Fang Hanniang: "I don't know if I'm here, can I get in the way of my cousin's business?" ”

Fang Hanniang smiled and said very simply: "My cousin is my own family, how can I say that there is anything in the way...... It's just that my uncle is an elder, and I listen to my uncle. ”

Kicked the ball directly into the hands of Ping Guogong.

Ping Guogong smiled, and he was still a little happy about Fang Hanniang's move. Just turned his head and scolded Ruan Chuxiao: "You ask your cousin what to do!" She's a girl, thin-skinned, you rebel, you're a lot older, is it very faceful to bully your cousin who is ten years younger than you! Get out of here! Don't get in the way here! ”

Ruan Chuxiao, who was scolding, was speechless.

Ruan Chuxiao didn't know what to say with a wooden face, so she had to hug her fists and retreat.

When Ruan Chuxiao left, Ping Guogong smiled at Fang Hanniang with a warm face, and couldn't help but muttered a few more words Ruan Chuxiao: "Your third cousin, when you are older, you don't find a daughter-in-law to start a family quickly, and you will be angry with your grandmother all day long." Fortunately, you have been with your grandmother these days, and he has saved a lot of money. ”

Fang Hanniang saw that Ping Guogong still had the leisure to talk to her, and her heart was also relieved. It seems that something good has happened, otherwise Ping Guogong would not be in such a relaxed mood.

Fang Hanniang said with a smile: "Maybe the fate of the third cousin has not arrived, and the children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, and the eldest uncle should not be sad about the third cousin's delay in getting married." ”

Ping Guogong smiled, and then said, "I heard that Xiangxiang also followed you today, are you okay today?" ”

Fang Hanniang praised Ruan Zhixuan again: "Xiangxiang is excellent, I have been busy all day today, I am not bitter or tired, and I am not squeamish at all." The sister-in-law taught Xiangxiang very well. ”

Ping Guogong has always been fond of his two granddaughters, and when he heard this, he felt very comfortable.

Fang Hanniang smiled: "What happened today?" I see that my uncle seems to be in a good mood today. ”

Ping Guogong couldn't help laughing and said, "I really can't hide anything from Han Niang." Today, the emperor summoned several of our ministers in the imperial study to discuss the disaster relief, and I should be able to make an order in the next few days. I'm happy for the thousands of victims. ”

Fang Hanniang had already received news from Ji Jinxing once, and now she had received it from Ping Guogong again, and she still couldn't help but be happy.

The uncle and nephew chatted for a long time, and Fang Hanniang discussed the arrangements for the next few days with Ping Guogong, and waited until it was a little late at night before retiring from Ping Guogong's study.

Qiuzhu Gang Fang Hanniang, who was waiting outside, held an umbrella, and the little maid in front of him held a lantern, and a group of three people braved the snow to go to the backyard.

It's just that at the moon gate at the intersection of the front yard and the back yard, the little maid suddenly stopped her steps and said "ah", looking frightened.

Fang Hanniang was slightly surprised, but when she looked up, she saw a young man dressed in a big hat coming out of the Moon Gate.

If you look at it again, who is it if it's not Ruan Chuxiao?

The little maid also recognized the person, and hurriedly gave Ruan Chuxiao a salute with a blushing face: "Third young master, forgive me, the slave didn't pay attention to it, the third young master is here......"

Ruan Chuxiao waved her hand and said to the little maid and Qiuzhu: "You guys step back first, I have something to tell my cousin." ”

Qiu Zhu was slightly surprised, and looked at Fang Hanniang with some hesitation, after all, her master was Fang Hanniang, Fang Hanniang didn't speak, she was a little undecided.

Fang Hanniang seemed to feel Qiu Zhu's gaze, waved her hand indifferently, and motioned for Qiu Zhu to retreat first.

Qiu Zhu avoided the handrail corridor around the corner with the little maid.

Although they are cousins and sisters, after all, the two of them are not young anymore, and the speech of such a lonely man and widow in the middle of the night is a little unruly, so Fang Hanniang went straight to the point and said: "I don't know what the third cousin is looking for me?" ”

Ruan Chuxiao seemed to hesitate, he seemed to be hesitating whether to speak.

After hesitating for a long time, Ruan Chuxiao finally spoke: "...... I heard that someone went outside the city to pick you up these two days? ”

On the word someone, Ruan Chuxiao accentuated his tone.

He naturally knew that it was Ji Jinxing.

He also heard from his eldest brother about the days he left Beijing, some of the things that happened in the Pingguo Mansion, and he also knew more or less about the relationship between Fang Hanniang and King Jin......

Fang Hanniang was not surprised that Ruan Chuxiao knew about this.

After all, the people who guarded her were the Ruan family army of the Pingguo Mansion, Ruan Chuxiao was in charge of this part, and the sergeants below would report what happened to Ruan Chuxiao because they were worried about her safety or for other reasons.

Ruan Chuxiao knew about this, which was expected.

Fang Hanniang didn't deny it, and nodded generously: "What the third cousin said is right, someone went to pick me up in the past two days." ”

Ruan Chuxiao was originally a decisive and heroic person, and he had always spoken straightforwardly, but now he didn't know how to talk to the little girl in front of him.

Let her be self-respecting and self-loving, and don't have a tryst with a man?

Or let her be careful not to be deceived by men?

…… These words are too ugly, and Ruan Chuxiao knows that they are very inappropriate.

What's more, Ruan Chuxiao already knew what Fang Hanniang was busy doing in the past few days.

Ruan Chuxiao felt that these cousins and cousins were really very good and kind people.

But Ruan Chuxiao was a little worried, after all, her cousin's age was there, and she was not deeply involved in the world...... He finally couldn't help but suggest euphemistically: "...... The guards outside are too eye-catching. What if someone sees it...... Although others don't know that the person in the carriage is you, a little check can always find some clues. ”

Fang Hanniang didn't know this, but it was too happy to meet Ji Jinxing.

And Fang Hanniang inexplicably believed in Ji Jinxing.

She believed that Ji Jinxing would not let her be criticized for his actions.

However, Ruan Chuxiao's suggestion was also for her good.

Fang Hanniang was grateful for Ruan Chuxiao for being so careful, and it was clear that Fang Fang could say this in front of Ping Guogong, but he didn't say it, but waited outside......

Thinking of this, Fang Hanniang was taken aback, and looked up at Ruan Chuxiao: "Third cousin, you won't wait until now, right?" ”

…… When, what time is this?

Could it be that he has been waiting outside?

Only then did Fang Hanniang notice that the big hat Ruan Chuxiao was wearing was the one he wore when he left from Pingguo Gong's study before.

Ruan Chuxiao didn't answer this question, he paused, avoided the question, and said seriously: "...... Cousin Han, if it is inconvenient for you to talk to the prince, then I will talk to the prince tomorrow. He went out of town to pick you up, which was really a bit eye-catching. Seeing Fang Hanniang staring at him with big eyes, he paused inexplicably, and added a little weakly for some reason, "Right now, the family is in turmoil, don't make any more trouble." You're sensible, and I know you understand the risks. ”

Fang Hanniang heard Ruan Chuxiao say this, and nodded: "Third cousin, don't worry, I am measured." The third cousin doesn't need to talk to the prince about this, I think he also knows the measure here. She solemnly blessed Ruan Chuxiao, "Thank you cousin for the reminder." ”

Ruan Chuxiao seemed to have been stepped on by the tail, her expression changed, and after a while, Fang said: "Since that's the case, then I'll go back." Cousin Han be careful on the road. ”

Fang Hanniang nodded, standing in place but not moving, looking respectfully ready to let Ruan Chuxiao go first.

Ruan Chuxiao's expression tightened, as if someone was chasing him, turned around and strode away.

Qiuzhu in the distance kept looking at this side, and when she saw that the third young master was gone, she breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly walked over, and whispered, "Girl, are you okay?" Seeing that the third young master was so serious, the slave and maid were almost scared to death. ”

"It's nothing, let's go." Fang Hanniang's face was a little calm, she didn't want to be amorous-

But she didn't want to get into love debts anymore, and it was always right to be careful.

The little maid holding the lantern walked in front, and Fang Hanniang and Qiuzhu walked behind, slowly, towards Fuhui Hall.
