An Nan and Mrs. Li walked to the store while talking, her store covers an area of not small, after all, the flowers she carefully planted need to be elegant and not vulgar, which requires space and some other supporting designs, people who like flowers have very good aesthetic ability, so the environment and atmosphere in the flower shop are also very important.

As soon as An Nan bypassed a small and delicate screen that was one person high, he saw two guests coming towards him.

"The king, the princess?" The current handsome young man with a hint of pale face was stunned for a moment, and then bowed to An Nan and said politely, "How is the princess doing lately?" ”

This is Xiao Yan, the son of King Rui, An Nan's nominal stepson, but he has never called An Nan's mother concubine, he always calls him the princess, so people probably don't recognize his identity, and his sister Xiao Yu is the same.

But An Nan doesn't care about this trivial matter, after all, it is not uncommon for her to have two "sons" and "daughters" who are not a few years younger than herself.

After An Nan moved out of the Rui Wangfu in the past few years, only a few important festivals that could not be avoided would appear in the palace with the people of the Rui Wangfu, probably because of this, Xiao Yan and Xiao Yu felt that their threat was gone, so their hostility towards themselves over the years has gradually decreased, and they can politely greet each other when they meet, of course, there is no true feelings, everyone is pretending, and they can get by on the face.

"You're here? What do you like? An Nan also asked politely.

Xiao Yan smiled faintly and said, "Probably because I came late, the rare ones have been robbed up, and the princess's flowers here have never been appreciated." ”

"The prince has won the prize, where am I here compared to the one in your palace? I heard that Ruiwang specially invited a lot of gardeners who are good at flowers and plants to come back, and you probably think that I am not unusual here. An Nan said politely.

Back then, in order to please his daughter, King Rui really found many gardeners to plant flowers, I don't know if the little county lord is dissatisfied with the flowers in the palace?

The two said a few more words, and then there was nothing to say, the young prince couldn't bear this somewhat embarrassing atmosphere, and hurriedly said goodbye to An Nan, and left quickly with his sister.

And from beginning to end, Xiao Yu, the little county lord, never said a word to An Nan, she didn't know if she was still a little hostile to An Nan, she was cold and indifferent when facing An Nan, and if there was no need, she would basically not say a word to An Nan.

An Nan doesn't care about this, if she is close to An Nan, An Nan will be more worried, after all, the little county lord's body has never been raised, she is already an eleven-year-old girl, but the whole person seems to be only eight or nine years old, with a thin body, a face as white as blood, and her hair is fine and yellow, like a malnourished child, listless all day long.

Other people's eleven-year-old girls have begun to vaguely have the beauty of a girl, but Xiao Yu is still completely a girl, not developed at all, An Nan can't help frowning every time she sees her, only thinking that Rui Wang really can't raise children.

cares too much about whether she eats enough and doesn't eat well, let her stay in the house all day, can't move around, can't go out to blow the wind, and pours a big bowl of bitter medicine when she is a little dizzy and hot, and doesn't give her own body immunity room to play a role at all...... King Rui thought that he could raise the child well with such careful upbringing, but he didn't know that this would only make Xiao Yu's body never repair itself.

An Nan knew this, but she didn't bring it up, because King Rui wouldn't believe it, he would only feel that An Nan had bad intentions and wanted to deliberately toss his baby daughter...... So An Nan is not nosy.

However, when dealing with An Ning, her own niece, she used her own method, and over the years, she really raised the sick little guy to be as strong as a calf.

If An Nan also raises An Ning like King Rui raised Xiao Yu, then An Ning will be the next Xiao Yu.

An Nan had turned her mind around when she saw Xiao Yu's weak back, but Madame Li quickly drew her attention back.

She glanced at the backs of Xiao Yan and Xiao Yu, and said to An Nan mysteriously: "Why are your two stepchildren so polite to you?" Like a guest, that little county lord doesn't even say hello to you, which is too indifferent to you, right? Anyway, you haven't reconciled with King Rui yet, and now you're still their nominal mother, so you're not afraid of being called unfilial? ”

When An Nan heard her words, she couldn't help but laugh and said, "I moved out of the palace early, and it's almost the same as saying that they are strangers, and besides, I haven't fulfilled my mother's responsibilities to them, so naturally I can't ask them to treat me as a mother." I don't care if they see me or not. ”

Mrs. Li pursed her lips and said, "Tsk, I know that it is difficult to be a stepmother, it must be that Prince Rui is afraid that you will be unfavorable to their two children, so he deliberately isolates you and does not let you get close to them, right?" Lord Rui is too cautious and careful, I don't think you are the kind of vicious person, princess. ”

"It's probably because I love children too much, so I'm reluctant to take a little risk." An Nan shrugged and said nonchalantly.

"Then aren't you a little unwilling? You only have the false name of a princess now, and nothing else, what can you do when you get old in the future? I don't think the prince and the little lord will support you...... You shouldn't have moved out in a moment, but you should have a child, whether it's a man or a woman, there is always a ...... to rely on," Mrs. Li said unfairly for An Nan.

An Nan said funny: "Don't I have a niece? She's pretty much the same as my own now. ”

"How can a niece be the same as her own daughter? Blood relations have been estranged a lot......," Mrs. Li sighed.

……

In the flower shop, An Nan was talking these words to Mrs. Li, and outside, the prince of Rui Wang and the little county lord were also talking about An Nan.

"You shouldn't have been so rude and turned a blind eye to the princess just now, no matter what, she is nominally our elder." Xiao Yan said to his sister with a little headache.

"Humph! What kind of elder is she? Didn't you see her and didn't say hello to me? Why should I bow to her first? Xiao Yu looked up with a pale little face and said to Xiao Yan unconvinced.

"You are a junior, you should greet her first, it is not a question of whether to bow your head or not, but a matter of politeness and cultivation." Xiao Yan patiently educates his sister.

"I won't say hello to her, so what? Can she still punish me? If she really punishes me, it will be better, and I will sue her with my father! Xiao Yu snorted lightly, people ignore her, so she doesn't want to put a hot face on other people's cold butts!
