Chapter 25 Ah Yuan
"War is inevitable, those lowly slaves should be glad to sacrifice their insignificant lives for Beiying, who will unify the four countries and create a prosperous ......."
"Ah, little stone, you have been brainwashed", Ruan Tang said as he touched the little stone's hair.
"Sister's thoughts are strange, we are born different from those lowly people, their lives are nothing, sister, don't pity them, they are not worth it, people like ants", Ruan Tang never found that Xiao Shi had such cruel thoughts, she looked at Cui Ping and Xiao Mu, and found that they did not have any abnormal emotions, they all thought that they should be enslaved, seeing that she still did not agree with this idea, but she didn't know how to refute it, so she could only shut up and not say anything.
Seeing that her sister seemed to be in a depressed mood, Xiao Shi took the initiative to hand the pastry to Ruan Tang, "Sister just needs to live every day happily and peacefully, any reunification, war, and 'Red Lotus Holy Relic' have nothing to do with my sister, we will all protect your ......", the little boy said solemnly.
"But ......", Ruan Tang felt his brother's concern and wanted to say something.
"Ah, sister, it's nothing, you should worry about who your father will marry you", the little boy changed the subject.
"What! I'm only 13 years old, how could I", Ruan Tang immediately shifted his attention, thinking, "She won't get married so early, she hasn't had enough fun."
"It's not now, you'll be 15 years old in two years, and you can get married after that, don't go out all day long, give me a new purse," Ruan Luo said with a long time.
"Ahββ, little stone, your focus is here, it's embroidering, don't rush ......," Ruan Tang said with a smile.
Seeing that his sister regained her vitality, the little boy breathed a sigh of relief, in fact, the textbooks that Ruan Tang learned should not have allowed her to learn, whether it was Beiying or Xiling or Nanyue and Donghu, there was no reason for women to learn politics, and women were not even allowed to read and write in South Vietnam.
But Master Ruan didn't want his Dabao to be a stupid and ignorant woman, and the Zen master also wanted Ruan Tang to learn more culture, and reading books could increase her knowledge. Let Ruan Tang be literate, learn calligraphy, and the history of the four countries, not to train her to become a female politician, but to let Ruan Tang know more, and there is no shortage of female workers, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting that women should learn, let her learn.
As a result, in addition to the female celebrity, Ruan Tang also learned unsatisfactory, and the packaging was also considered to be a shot, Master Ruan was still quite satisfied, Mrs. Ruan didn't care, as long as the baby was happy, it was enough, everything had her, the Ruan family, and even the Empress Dowager Beiying was on top for her, who could say that Ruan Tang was not good.
"Sister, where are you going?" , Ruan Luo always pays attention to her sister's every move.
"I'll go find Dr. Si," the little girl replied cheerfully.
"Why did you go to that iceberg again," Ruan Luo thought to himself. "I won't accompany you, let Cui Ping follow, come back early, otherwise Dad will find out ......," Ruan Luo said.
"Got itββ, break my legs", the little girl said mischievously, "Cuiping is getting married, I'm embroidering the wedding dress, I won't let her go, I can do it myself, no problem", the little girl replied, and then ran away.
"Come on, go follow Miss, don't let her get hurt", Ruan Luo ordered in a low voice.
"Yes", the person who answered did not appear, but hid in the shadows.
Since the incident of Ying Er, Emperor Beiying took Ying Yi and Ying San away, and replaced another person to secretly protect Ruan Tang, but the secret guard was forbidden to contact Ruan Tang again, and he was executed in violation of the order, so Ruan Luo and they were relieved to let Ruan Tang find Si Qingyuan.
Cui Ping is 16 years old this year, she shouldn't have married so early, as the personal maid of the eldest lady, but Ruan Tang felt sorry for her, according to the customs of Beiying, women should not marry too late, otherwise it will be easy to marry, of course, except for the young lady of the powerful family, it is possible to marry a second time, so Mrs. Ruan allowed her to marry before the young lady got married, Cui Ping was extremely grateful to the eldest lady, she and the next person in the house Pan Fu set a marriage, the wedding date is the spring of next year, so the wedding dress is .......
"Doctor Si, I'm here", Ruan Tang walked into Jishitang with a cheerful step, and naturally greeted Yunlin, as for Luo Qi, who was "bored", he ignored it directly.
"Miss Ruan is here? Childe is in the backyard", Yun Lin said empathetically.
"Got it, thank you, Mr. Yun", Ruan Tang also grimaced at Luo Qi after speaking.
Yun Lin smiled.
"Alas, little gummy, you ......"
"Luo Qi, come over and help", Yun Lin stopped Luo Qi who wanted to keep up and said.
"Yunlin, aren't you afraid that kid will find out Childe's secret," Luo Qi asked.
"Is Childe that stupid......", Yun Lin asked rhetorically.
As soon as the little girl entered the backyard, she was fascinated by the scenery in front of her, Si Qingyuan was playing the piano, the piano sounded ethereal, and there were green bamboo and water lilies around her.
"It's so good", at the end of the song, the little girl clapped her hands and praised.
"Miss Ruan, you're here", although it was a cold voice as cool as mountain spring water, it flowed into Ruan Tang's heart and dispelled the heat in her heart.
"Doctor Si, you also like lotus, I like it too", the little girl smiled brightly, the sun sprinkled on her body, the small red mole and the small dimples complemented each other, the bright sunshine was as clean and beautiful as the lotus.
"Hmm", Si Qingyuan cherishes words like gold, no matter how much he likes it in his heart, there are still very few words that can be spoken, but this does not prevent the little girl from approaching him and talking to him, "Alas, Doctor Si, my name is Ruan Tang, you don't need to call me Miss Ruan, you can call me Xiao Ruan or Xiao Tang", Ruan Tang said expectantly.
"Etiquette cannot be wasted", Si Qingyuan said coldly.
"Ahββ, don't be so old-fashioned."
"Miss Ruan, don't get so close, men and women ......", Si Qingyuan took a step back and said, he seemed to smell the fragrance of the lotus flower on the little girl's body, this fragrance is not like the ordinary lady rubbed with fat powder, nor is it the fragrance of the purse she wears, it seems to be brought by the child himself, and he can only smell it when he gets close.
"Ah, what kind of man and woman, I'm only 13 years old, how old is Dr. Si?" , Ruan Tang continued to set closely.
"18 years old, there are still two years to do the crown ceremony", Si Qingyuan did not ignore Ruan Tangai like his cold appearance, and answered her question.
"That's 5 years older than me, it's okay", Ruan Tang thought to himself, "about the same age as the brother in black", but he didn't expect to blurt out unconsciously.
"Brother in black?" , Si Qingyuan wondered.
"It's my friend, look, this wolf tooth was given to me by him, and I exchanged it with him with a Buddhist bead", the little girl took out the golden silk red rope tied to the wolf tooth and the Buddha bead from the collar, and showed it to Si Qingyuan as if offering a treasure.
Si Qing saw that the wolf's tooth was mediocre, but the Buddha bead was not ordinary, and it was indeed given by the Zen master of Huguo Temple as rumored. I was curious about the black-clothed brother she was talking about.
"I can make friends with my brother in black, and I can also become good friends with Dr. Si", the little girl said confidently.
"This is Si's honor", Si Qingyuan said with a smile to the little girl in the sun.
"Then I'll call you Ah Yuan, although you are older than me, but I want to call you that, not because I am rude, this is more close, Ah Yuan don't call me Miss Ruan, it's too distant", the little girl spoke one by one, and there were a lot of fallacies.
"Then, Ruan Ruan?" , Si Qingyuan said tentatively.
Listening to his cold voice, Ruan Tang said excitedly, "Okay, Ah Yuan, we have exchanged names, we will be friends in the future, you can ask me for help in the future, I am very familiar with Frost City, you can ask me if you don't understand anything, and there are also those delicious shops ......."
Si Qingyuan smiled and listened to the little girl's gushing words, people were more relaxed than ever, an afternoon passed quickly, Ruan Tang and Si Qingyuan talked very happily, most of them were Ruan Tang was talking, Si Qingyuan had been listening, listening to her say that she loved her sister's little stone, the nurse Wang and her mother's spoiling, her father's verbal threat to break her legs, the maid Cuiping who was going to marry next year, and even Xiaomu's matter was told to Ah Yuan, but Ruan Tang did not say that Emperor Yuwen of Beiying and the Queen Mother, they told her not to spread it, The little girl also obediently did not say anything.
Si Qingyuan had a lot to know, the little girl didn't say, he didn't ask, it wasn't the time yet, he wasn't in a hurry, and there was time to find out, such as Emperor Beiying's unusualness to her, such as why the Zen master from Huguo Temple gave her a ...... of Buddha beads.
"Dad always threatens me to break my legs, hum, he's reluctant, what's wrong with me going out to play, isn't there a brother in black to protect me, no, now the brother in black doesn't protect me, he has been promoted to ......."
Speaking of the brother in black, the little girl's mood was a little low, not as high as before, Si Qingyuan asked, "Promoted?" βγ
"Well, I'm no longer my bodyguard, uh, protect, guard, I can go to the outside world to see, as his friend, I have to be happy for him, I can't selfishly detain him by my side......", the little girl comforted herself, "If he comes back, I'll introduce you to you, the brother in black doesn't like to talk like Ah Yuan, but every time I can talk to the key point, I like the cool appearance of the brother in black, of course, Ah Yuan, you are also very handsome......."
As soon as the "brother in black" was mentioned, the little girl couldn't stop, Si Qingyuan was a little jealous of that man for the first time, and he also wanted to meet him .......
"Ah, it's so late, it's going to be dark, Ah Yuan, I have to go back, otherwise Daddy and Xiaoshi should be in a hurry", the little girl hurriedly ran out after speaking.
"Slow down, Ruan Ruan ......," Si Qingyuan shouted.
"Yunlin, send her back secretly"
"Yes, Childe"
"Why did Childe talk to Little Gummy for so long", Luo Qi had to come out with Yunlin to secretly escort Ruan Tang.
"Childe has his own considerations," Yun Lin replied.
"Also, that little gummy is not only sticky to your teeth, but also quite sticky", "Why don't you stick to me?" Luo Qi did not say the latter sentence.
The little good girl ran anxiously to Ruan's mansion in front, but unfortunately she didn't run as fast as them.
"Poof, that's really a little short leg," Luo Qi said with a smile.
"Alas, dangerous!" Seeing that the little girl was about to crash into the carriage that came out of the alley, Luo Qi and Yunlin just wanted to save it, but suddenly the carriage stopped at a distance of one step in front of the little girl, and the little girl was almost hit by the carriage.
"Kid, what are you running around when it's dark! Do you know the danger", because it was already dark, the coachman who drove the carriage did not see Ruan Tang's appearance and clothes clearly, thinking that he was a naughty commoner's son.
"Know, I know uncle, I, I didn't see it clearly", the little girl was frightened, she was almost trampled by the horse's hooves, and her face turned pale.
