Chapter 69: Children Are Different
"Didn't think you were a woman?" Ruan Xuchen said to Ruan Cailing very seriously.
The angry Ruan Cailing ignored Ruan Xuchen until dinner, the brother and sister who never quarreled, one sat on Ruan Su's left and the other sat on the right during dinner, Ruan Qi and Ruan Su's glanced at each other, and even Shen Yunyun felt very strange.
Generally speaking, they all sit down to eat together, and Ruan Xuchen is convenient to take care of Ruan Cailing.
What's going on today?
"Just now my father went to my aunt's yard, what did she say?" Ruan Cailing asked Ruan Qi.
When the sun set, the entire family except for my aunt and grandmother got up from the gate of the Dingguo Mansion, and Gu Jinxi also warned this group of people before leaving that the status of the Dingguo Gong was noble, and as relatives of the Dingguo Gong, they should not give the Dingguo Gong a cause for right and wrong.
As a result, when Ruan Qi came back and heard about it, he first went to the old lady's room to see if the old lady was frightened.
Although Mrs. Cheng is not completely unseen in the world, it is the first time to be so frightened by a young and promising son, and her mood is a little sluggish.
The whole family didn't come, so it was rare that only the people from the Dingguo Mansion dined in the front hall.
Ruan Qi glanced up at Ruan Cailing, "You! I know you don't like your aunt's temper, but your aunt and grandmother are this age, what are you trying to scare her for? Aunt Fang Cai said that the mansion had been found and she would move out in two days, and her tone was quite polite. ”
Speaking of this mansion, Ruan Xuchen lowered his head and pulled the rice and asked, "Dad, do you know where the mansion of the family came from?" Some time ago, I said that I couldn't find a suitable one, and it was only a few days of work, and I was going to move out? ”
Ruan Qi's face was confused, Ruan Xuchen made up his mind, as long as Ruan Qi didn't know.
Robbing other people's land and mansions, if Ruan Qi knew about this kind of thing, he would definitely let Cheng Lisheng return the place to others, and maybe he would personally find a house for the Cheng family, Ruan Xuchen thought about it, his father was already busy, so he didn't have to worry about this kind of thing.
"What's wrong with you two brothers and sisters?" After eating, everyone sat in the front hall to drink tea and eat, and Ruan Sushi asked Ruan Cailing.
Ruan Cailing glanced at Ruan Xuchen and exhaled through her nostrils, "Hmph! Not much! Don't want to sit with big brother! ”
Originally, Shen Yunyun was also with them, but after sitting for a while, she found that she was an outsider who couldn't get into the joy of other people's family at all, so she found an excuse to leave, Ruan Cailing looked at the back of Shen Yunyun leaving, and asked Ruan Qi, "Dad, why don't you tell me about Uncle Xun?" ”
Zhu Yuanxun? Ruan Qi was thinking about this person recently, but her daughter brought it up.
"Why do you mention him? Have you seen him? You've all grown up, so it stands to reason that he shouldn't be here! Ruan Qi also had a natural look, Ruan Cailing turned her head sideways and glared at Ruan Xuchen, who was helping her to add tea, and the latter accompanied her with a smiling face, "Dad, this ...... Some misunderstandings......"
Misunderstand? Although Ruan Qi also found that the atmosphere of the two brothers and sisters was a little wrong, the two of them didn't say anything, and he couldn't guess it, now it seems that it is still related to Zhu Yuanxun?
Ruan Cailing stretched out her hand, revealing the bracer on her wrist, "Well, this is a gift from Uncle Xun to me!" ”
Ruan Qi frowned, "Greeting gift? So why are you bringing it now? I haven't seen you wear it in years. ”
Ruan Cailing, "......" really deserves to be father and son!
Slowly tidying up the cuffs, Ruan Cailing said, "Dad, don't you think there's something wrong with me as a woman, Uncle Xun appearing in my room in the middle of the night?" ”
Saying this, Ruan Qi remembered that Chen'er was a man, so Zhu Yuanxun climbed the wall in the middle of the night to teach him martial arts, but Ling'er was a girl! How could Zhu Yuanxun always appear in Sihua Building in the middle of the night to teach her?
After thinking about the meeting gift that Ruan Cailing said just now, Ruan Qi understood, "You haven't seen Zhu Yuanxun for many years before?" ”
Fortunately, a little faster than the eldest brother understood, Ruan Cailing nodded helplessly, talking about when Gu Jinxi took him to see Uncle Xun today, Uncle Xun's eyes were red and he was about to cry, Ruan Qi touched his nose in embarrassment, looked sideways at his wife, Ruan Sushi smiled, "I still think, why have I never heard A Xun's name in Ling'er's mouth." ”
I've never seen it before!
Not only has she never seen it, she doesn't even know that Sihualou is Uncle Xun's handiwork, okay! Ruan Cailing didn't even bother to get angry, snorted, got up and walked out, Ruan Xuchen said good night to his father and mother, and chased Ruan Cailing out.
"Ling'er is okay, big brother is wrong! But if you think about it, we grew up together, you and I are the same, so naturally we won't think about it so much! Ruan Xuchen coaxed for a long time, Ruan Cailing held her mouth, "That's it, I'll go to see Uncle Xun more in the future." ”
When Ruan Xuchen first started to practice martial arts, he heard that Uncle Xun also wanted to teach Ruan Cailing, at least he had to have the ability to defend himself, and even Su Wanyue, who was a scholar of the Criminal Department, loved to practice martial arts, but Ruan Cailing just didn't open up.
Ruan Xuchen still thought about it, with Uncle Xun's teaching, she was still like this, it seemed that her sister was really not the material for martial arts, so she had to give up.
Now that I think about it, alas, I actually delayed Ling'er!
Back at Sihua Building, Ruan Cailing looked at the position of the beams of her room for the first time after going upstairs, and asked Ruan Xuchen, "Big brother, are you and my residence the handiwork of Uncle Xun?" ”
Ruan Xuchen nodded, sat down and bent his fingers and knocked on the table, "Actually, not only you and my residence, it can be said that the entire Dingguo Mansion was designed by Uncle Xun, I heard my father say that Uncle Xun had not left the court at that time, and I heard that my father was going to build a house, so it took a long time to give my father a congratulatory gift." ”
It sounds like this, the relationship between Uncle Xun and his father must be very good.
Otherwise, Dad wouldn't have let Uncle Xun come to him and his eldest brother in the middle of the night, although he was ...... It sounds very bad, but with a character like my father, I can still believe in a person like this, it must be a friendship with my own life, not only my father, but also King Xuan.
In the afternoon, seeing that Gu Jinxi was so deferential to Uncle Xun, he could also see King Xuan's attitude towards Uncle Xun.
What happened to these three people? King Xuan has a princess, and his father and his mother have married her and his eldest brother, but why is Uncle Xun still alone?
"Big brother, I heard Brother Gu say that Uncle Xun is the same age as our father, but why is he full of gray hair? Brother Gu only said that it was a white head overnight, why did this happen? ”
Speaking of this, Ruan Xuchen's face was a little ugly.
"Royal secrets, it's good if you don't know."
No matter how Ruan Cailing asked, Ruan Xuchen just didn't say anything, and finally used the excuse that she was tired and wanted to go back to rest, leaving Ruan Cailing alone to think about it when she was bathing, Qingrui stood behind to help Ruan Cailing add water, and saw Ruan Cailing sitting in the bathtub in a daze, thinking that the water was cold.
"Miss, what's wrong with you?" Qingrui asked.
Ruan Cailing asked blankly, "Qingrui, what do you have to do with this person to turn gray overnight?" ”
"This ...... Sick? ”
Ruan Cailing shook her head, it must not be so simple, when she mentioned this matter today, not only did Jin Xi's face change, and even the eldest brother's expression was wrong, something more serious must have happened.
I don't want to think about it, I think too much about it, and I can't figure it out.
"General Jingkang's Mansion? Monk's house? These are all Daddy's colleagues, Daddy just takes his mother with him, wouldn't it be good? Why do you want my eldest brother to accompany me? ”
In the afternoon, Ruan Cailing hid in the attic to take a nap, and was throwing the plums into her mouth one by one, holding her chin with one hand and staring boredly at the swallows flying outside the window.
There is no such thing as a lady at all.
Ruan Xuchen was quite surprised that Ruan Cailing was very honest recently, and she didn't run out, either reading books and playing the piano at home, or looking at the outside scenery in the newly cleaned up small attic, from the perspective of the attic, you can see the palace, and you can also see most of the scenery in the capital.
At this time, Ruan Xuchen couldn't find her in the study of Sihua Building, so he was sure that she was here.
Qing Rui knelt on the side, and when she saw that the water in the teacup in front of Ruan Cailing was gone, she added it.
Ruan Xuchen threw the invitation card on the table, Ruan Cailing almost put her legs on the small table, the posture was really ecstatic and comfortable, Ruan Cailing yawned, rubbed her numb legs, and took the invitation to take a look.
The big red wedding card, the smell of ink on it is very strong, Ruan Cailing looked at the name of the bride, Bai Hanyin?
She suddenly came to her senses, turned over and lay on the table, looking at Ruan Xuchen with a curious face, "Is this Bai Hanyin the one who said back then that the third prince would not marry?" ”
Knowing that Ruan Cailing would think of this, Ruan Xuchen nodded helplessly, and also took a plum from the plate in front of Ruan Cailing to eat, the sour taste spread from his mouth, he wrinkled his face sourly, and nodded, "That's right!" Although the relationship between you and Bai Hanyin is not good, you can still say hello when you meet, haven't you also spoken in the palace! ”
She has followed her father and eldest brother into the palace since she was a child and participated in various palace banquets, this Bai Hanyin is the eldest lady of General Jingkang's mansion, so she can naturally attend.
She can also say two sentences when she meets, but Bai Hanyin's temperament is too weak, but she has some meaning of Shen Yunyun, and she lost interest if she said no two words, but she vaguely remembered that this Bai Hanyin said that she liked the three princes, and hoped that General Jingkang would mention this matter to the emperor, and she said that even if she married the third prince as a side concubine or concubine.
In the blink of an eye, she is going to get married.
is still married to the son of Shangshufu.
Ruan Cailing was suddenly a little lost, the matchmaker's words about the life of her parents, no matter how much she likes it, she still can't get it, this is Bai Hanyin's life!
"What's wrong? Why are you suddenly unhappy? ”
