"Miss Sue."

When Su Ruan woke up the next morning, he heard a female voice outside.

When she opened her mouth to let her in, she found that she was a very capable-looking woman.

Su Ruan was puzzled: "Are you?" ”

The woman hurriedly said, "The old slave's surname is Sun, and Miss Su just calls me Mother Sun." ”

"I am the mother-in-law of the Mo family in Jingnan, Lord Qi said that Miss Su did not bring a maid ring with her, and specially asked me to serve Miss Su's daily life, Miss Su lived in the post house during this time, if there is anything needed, just open your mouth and tell me."

After Su Ruan nodded and called out to Mother Sun, he asked, "What about Lord Qi?" ”

Mother Sun replied: "Lord Crepe from Zhizhou Mansion is here, and Lord Qi is talking to him. ”

Su Ruan knew yesterday that Qi Wenfu would not dry Crepe Longan for too long, but she didn't expect to come so soon, she hurriedly turned her head sideways and asked, "How long has Lord Crepe been here?" ”

"It's been a while." Mother Sun said, "Miss Su, do you want to wash up now?" ”

Su Ruan nodded: "It's troublesome." ”

Mother Sun hurriedly said that she didn't dare to say anything, so she turned around and went out, but after a while, she took the things for washing and came in.

She is very flexible in her work, and she is very particular about her speech, not much to say, but occasionally a few words are appropriate and not too talkative.

After serving Su Ruan after washing, Sun Ma pulled up her long hair on both sides into a hanging bun for her according to Su Ruan's instructions, inserted a hairpin, helped her put on a coat, tied a thin green cloak, and sent Su Ruan out.

The courtyard in the post house is very regular, the wing room is on the north and south sides, next to it is the ear room where the retinue lives, and then there is a small courtyard in the past on a road, and the front of the courtyard is a place where guests can be gathered.

When Mother Sun sent Su Ruan to the neighborhood, she took the initiative to stop and stood around the corner.

"The old slave is gone, Miss has just risen, I'll prepare some food for you first."

Su Ruan hummed, and when she saw her mother saluting and turned to leave, she couldn't help but take a second look.

This grandmother's words and deeds are extraordinarily polite, and she is also very measured, this person is probably not an ordinary mother-in-law.

Su Ruan didn't think much about it, anyway, she could definitely believe that she could send it to her from Qi Wenfu, she just put it down after being puzzled for a moment, turned around and walked over there.

After turning the corner, I saw Qi Wenfu and Crepe Longan sitting on the bamboo platform on the side of the flower hall on their knees.

In front of the two of them was a small yellow rosewood table with tea on it, and Mo Linglan was sitting on one side and talking.

When they heard the footsteps, all three turned around.

When he saw Su Ruan coming over, Qi Wenfu spoke first: "Up?" ”

Mo Linglan also beckoned: "Su Ruan." ”

"Fourth brother, big brother Mo."

After Su Ruan got closer, he first called the two of them, and then said a little embarrassed, "I slept a little late last night, and I overslept in the morning, why didn't the fourth brother let people wake me up?" ”

Qi Wenfu replied: "There were bumps on the road before, you haven't had a good rest, it's rare that you can sleep soundly, so I didn't let people call you." ”

"Since you got up, it's just right, and it just so happens that we are still talking about you."

Qi Wenfu pointed to the crepe Longan and said, "This is the Jingnan Zhizhou Crepe Longan, Lord Crepe." Lord Crepe, this is the county lord of Deping. ”

Crepe Long An had been secretly looking at her since Su Ruan appeared just now, and her appearance was really as good as rumored.

Apricot eyes and thin eyebrows, snow-skinned pink lips, she looks particularly good when she smiles, and the tender green on the cloak on her body is even more lined with green silk on her sideburns, and when she walks from afar, she looks like a fairy daughter in the painting.

It is said that this Miss Xiao of the Su family resembles her mother, and her mother Chen is more beautiful.

The women of the Su family are so good-looking, and they don't know what the Chen family looks like, no wonder they can be fascinated by Xuanping Hou despite her death, her husband has a daughter and is disgusted by her mother's family, she still asks for marriage, and marries someone into the mansion to be the head mother of the Hou Mansion.

With such a color, I'm afraid I can't help but be tempted by another person.

Xuan Long admired Su Ruan's good appearance with peace of mind, but his face did not show anything, but he got up and saluted: "Xia Guan has seen the county lord of Deping. ”

In terms of rank, Su Ruan is the county lord of the second grade, and he is the governor of the fourth grade.

Even if Su Ruan, the county lord, has no real power, but in terms of grade alone, he is still a little lower than Su Ruan.

"Crepe-sama doesn't have to be polite."

Su Ruan didn't really accept the salute of Xuan Longan, but slightly turned sideways to avoid it.

After Crepe Longan got up, Su Ruan said, "When we entered the city yesterday, we should have gone to visit Lord Crepe, but it was late at night, so I didn't come to the door for fear of disturbing the rest of the adults. ”

She didn't mention that Ye Ping went to greet her yesterday, but they gave up the crepe family and came directly to the post station.

Crepe Longan also seemed to have completely forgotten his apprehension after hearing that they had come to the inn in the mansion last night, and just said with some embarrassment:

"The county lord is serious, you and Lord Qi are tired of traveling and traveling, and the lower official should have gone to greet him in person, it was you two who came to the post house because of the little injury on the lower official's body, and now talking like this really makes the lower official ashamed."

"The facilities in this inn are outdated, and no one has lived in it for several years."

"If I knew that you two were coming, I should have asked someone to clean up earlier, but now it's too much of a snub for you and Lord Qi."

Su Ruan said with a smile: "Lord Crepe said that it was funny, the safflower willow trees and pavilions in this post house are all in the south in spring, how can you be lazy." Fourth brother, don't you say? ”

Qi Wenfu hummed: "It's quiet here, it's excellent." ”

Mo Linglan looked at the two singing and harmonizing, and also said on the side: "Lord Crepe, don't feel that you have treated them badly, I told you a long time ago, Zirong has always liked to be quiet, and the government and the crepe family are in the downtown area, but it is not as good as this post house." ”

"What's more, Lord Crepe also asked someone to clean it up last night, I think it's pretty good here, if there is any shortcoming, Zirong will definitely talk to you."

After saying that, he joked,

"I said you two have something to say sit and say, don't just stand, my neck hurts when I look up."

Crepe Longan was sincerely grateful to Mo Linglan, and knew that he was in a thoughtful atmosphere, so he quickly smiled and sat back down.

Su Ruan also smiled, and sat directly beside Qi Wenfu.

"Have you eaten?" Qi Wenfu asked.

Su Ruan shook his head: "I was in a hurry to get up in the morning, I heard that Lord Crepe was coming, so I came over directly, but Mother Sun went to prepare." ”

Qi Wenfu knew that Su Ruan was not in good health, and he had to pay attention to every drink and food, so he reached out to avoid the teapot on the table, took the white water that was boiling next to the stove but had not yet boiled tea, poured a cup, and put it in Su Ruan's hand.

"Drink some water to moisten your throat first."

Su Ruan smiled, held the cup obediently and said, "Thank you, fourth brother." ”
