Because of what Wei Manyin said in Kyoto before, Lin Ruan didn't have a good impression of her, so he didn't want to agree.

But Wei Manyin took He Yuyan's hand and said with a smile: "When the time comes, I will take Yuyan and go to you together." ”

Without looking at the monk's face and looking at the Buddha's face, Lin Ruan had to smile and nod: "Okay." ”

Mrs. He immediately lost her appetite, this Wei Manyin was really getting more and more disagreeable, and she was even more worried that Lin Ruan would have a misunderstanding with Xiao Jingchen because of Wei Manyin's matter, so she said with a smile: "The county lord is busy with affairs, don't always bother her if you have nothing to do, and delay her business." ”

Wei Manyin didn't seem to hear Mrs. He's obstruction, and said with a smile: "Aunt He, don't worry, we won't disturb the county host's business." ”

Mrs. He couldn't speak too thoroughly, so she had to smile.

After returning from He's house, Lin Ruan began to be busy researching new drinks for the Sweet Cottage.

It's cold, and the cold drinks before can't be sold for a long time, so the business of the Sweet Cottage has been a lot worse recently.

Lin Ruan's new drink is milk tea.

Milk tea is not difficult to make, use the flavor of black tea to make a tea soup, add milk and sugar to make it, but the various ingredients in it take a little effort.

The pearls need to be kneaded by hand, and the tapioca flour and brown sugar water washed with boiling water are constantly stirred, kneaded into a ball, and then kneaded into thin strips, cut into small particles, and then knead each one separately into a circle, and then boil it in a pot.

Taro Yuan is more troublesome, but these are not difficult for Lin Ruan.

These things are all universal, Lin Ruan relied on the taste in his memory, made a lot of varieties, and after tasting it, he felt that it tasted good, so he taught the chefs in the store how to make it. In addition, I copied a copy of the recipe and sent it to Kyoto.

Lin Ruan had just finished busy here, and over there, Wei Manyin came to the door, she didn't pull He Yuyan, but came alone.

"I've seen the county lord."

Wei Manyin didn't have to pick on etiquette, Lin Ruan really accepted her salute and invited her to sit down in the flower hall.

As soon as she sat down, Wei Manyin said straight to the point: "County Lord, I came this time for what I told you before. ”

Lin Ruan raised her eyebrows, how dead-eyed is this girl? "Miss Wei, I said, I won't help you."

Wei Manyin looked at her puzzled: "Why?" County Lord, cooperating with me is beneficial to you, why don't you agree? Didn't you understand the matter that Lord Mingyu deliberately made trouble for you before? You have no background in Kyoto, as long as I marry into the Xiao Wangfu, I can be your backer, including our Wei family. If you really don't think it's enough, my cousin, the third prince, he can also be your backer. ”

The corners of Lin Ruan's mouth twitched: "Miss Wei looks like a person who lacks a backer?" Do you think that Prince Xiao's ability is not as strong as Princess Xiao? One more point, Miss Wei, who do you think of Xiao Wangye? Do you think he'll look the other way at you because of my recommendation? Do you think that I, a person who is only from the third grade and has no foundation, can influence the marriage of Prince Xiao? Miss Wei, you think too highly of me. ”

Wei Manyin shook her head: "If it were someone else, I might not be able to afford it, but you are different." County Lord, you are the only girl who can get close to Prince Xiao over the years, I think your ability is very important to him, if you help me say a few words in front of him, he will definitely have a good impression of me. When the time comes, I will ask my aunt to ask the emperor for a marriage, so that this marriage can be completed. ”

Lin Ruan was a little irritable in his heart: "Since Miss Wei can ask Concubine Liu Guifei to ask for marriage, then why bother to let me say good things for you in front of Prince Xiao?" Wouldn't it be okay to ask the emperor directly for marriage? ”

Wei Manyin pursed her lips: "Prince Xiao's temperament is relatively strong, if he doesn't have a good impression of me, it is impossible to accept the marriage." I heard that Prince Xiao asked the emperor for the holy decree of marriage autonomy a long time ago. Therefore, it is not enough to ask for a marriage at all. ”

Only then did Lin Ruan know that there was such a stubble, could it be that Xiao Jingchen said that she didn't need to worry about the marriage, he would handle it well.

After coming back to his senses, Lin Ruan still shook his head: "I'm sorry Miss Wei, I won't help you with this favor." ”

"Why?" Wei Manyin stood up anxiously, "County Lord, this matter is not a loss to you, and it doesn't cost much, you just need to mention me in the letter from time to time, or in person to Xiao Wangye, this is just a gesture, you helped me, it is also good for you, why don't you refuse to agree?" ”

Lin Ruan was about to speak, but a cold figure like a fairy walked in outside his eyes.

"Why are you here?" Lin Ruan got up and greeted him, "Didn't you say that you can't pull away within the time?" ”

Xiao Jingchen's hand behind his back went around to the front and placed a palm-sized box in front of Lin Ruan: "It's for you." ”

"What is it?" Lin Ruan curiously took it and opened it, only to see that it was a set of ruby heads, "What are you sending me for?" ”

Xiao Jingchen turned around and walked to the chair and sat down, and said as a matter of course: "It looks good, I think you should look good when you wear it." ”

Lin Ruan felt happy in his heart: "It's really good-looking, but I'm not old enough to wear these now." ”

Xiao Jingchen picked up the tea label on the table and took a sip very naturally: "Then I'll wait for you to wear it after you finish it." ”

Wei Manyin next to her was so shocked that she couldn't speak, if she still couldn't understand the jewelry that Xiao Jingchen gave Lin Ruan just now, then Xiao Jingchen used Lin Ruan's cup to drink tea, she was a fool, and she understood it.

Lin Ruan, Xiao Wangye, they!?

So that's the case, no wonder Lin Ruan refused to help, it turned out that it was because she wanted to be Princess Xiao, and she had already successfully achieved her goal by taking advantage of the proximity to the water!

A country girl, she is also worthy!

Wei Manyin looked at Lin Ruan's eyes, and suddenly felt a little unkind.

Xiao Jingchen turned his head and looked over: "Wei Shangshu's granddaughter? ”

As soon as Wei Manyin saw that Xiao Jingchen still remembered herself, she nodded hurriedly, and said with a slightly red face: "Back to the prince, the little female grandfather is Wei Guangyi, the head of the household." ”

Xiao Jingchen smiled coldly: "What this king said last time, you took it as a deaf ear?" Or do you think that this king didn't do anything, just talking and playing? ”

He had been very busy, and he didn't have his hands free to clean up Wei Guangyi, but he didn't expect them to really take his words seriously.

Very good.

Wei Manyin was stunned for a moment, and then her face was a little ugly: "Lord Wang, I'm ...... I ......"

Xiao Jingchen snorted coldly: "The tutor of the Wei family is really refreshing, unmarried women are in a hurry to find a man to recommend themselves to the pillow, so hungry and thirsty, this king has a good recommendation." I am stationed in the border of the Great Zhou, I can't see a woman all the year round, Miss Wei can go to the border barracks to relieve the suffering of my Great Zhou soldiers, so Miss Wei has made a great contribution, and I think the world will also praise the Wei family for a great righteousness. ”
