Chapter Twenty-Nine: Uninvited

Ran Yan sat back on the round-waisted chair, reached out and picked up the two deeds of sale and looked at them carefully, during which Yu Guang also kept paying attention to the expressions of Liu and Zhou Lang.

Seeing that Ran Yan really wanted to accept the deed of sale, Zhou Lang's eyes were slightly red, his teeth were gritted, and he stubbornly held back his tears to prevent them from falling, while Liu just sat upright, calm, and couldn't see the slightest clue on his face.

For this pair of mothers and sons who seem to have good backgrounds, if they really want to win people's hearts, Ran Yan naturally can't really treat them as slaves.

"This deed of sale ......" Ran Yan looked at it for a long time before he groaned, took out one of them and handed it back to Liu, his white and slender fingers pressed the yellowed paper, and the indescribable elegance was tightly clasped into the hearts of the two people opposite.

Ran Yan was not in a hurry to explain, and his eyes fell on Zhou Lang with a slight coldness, "Have you read a book?" ”

Wednesday Lang was stunned for a moment, raised his eyes and looked at Ran Yan, the beautiful face of the woman in front of him was full of expressions that no one was close to, and he asked at all, but he felt very kind, and the situation of that day faintly appeared in his mind, and she said to him: If you are tired, you will sleep for a while.

"San Lang doesn't know the number of etiquette, please forgive me." Seeing that his son didn't answer, Liu Shi turned his head and reprimanded, "San Lang, don't go back to your mother to ask questions soon!" ”

Zhou Lang lowered his eyes and replied in a clear voice, "I used to read "Historical Records", "The Biography of the Zuo Family in the Spring and Autumn Period", "The Book of Filial Piety", "The Analects", "Zhou Li", "Zilin" ...... at home."

Very knowledgeable!

Ran Yan didn't know what he said he had read, just a shallow reading, or proficient, but even if a twelve or thirteen-year-old child reads lightly, it is not easy, when she went to the Mongolian Museum a few days ago, there were still teenagers reading "Thousand Words"!

"Are you really willing to be my slave?" Ran Yan knew the answer in his heart, but he asked deliberately.

Wednesday Lang didn't know how to answer, he was absolutely unwilling before he came, and after seeing Ran Yan, for some reason, he was a little shaken.

Ran Yan didn't wait for Wednesday Lang to answer, and pushed the piece of paper in front of him in front of him, "I have only saved one life, and I won't take advantage of you, just leave one person behind." Because I am a woman, it is convenient for Mrs. Liu to stay and serve, and it is not an exaggeration to think about paying the debts of the children and mothers. ”

Liu understood what Ran Yan meant in an instant, and made a big gift again, "The lady is very kind, and the slave is unforgettable!" ”

Those who are slaves are not allowed to participate in the imperial examination, and if Ran Yan really accepts him as a slave, it is tantamount to cutting off people's future. And the "slave" in Liu's mouth is the humble name of the Tang Dynasty woman to herself, not the meaning of slave.

And Liu knew this, and brought his son over, which shows his integrity.

"Six years." Ran Yan looked at Zhou Lang, his lips opened slightly, and he spit out these two words.

Wednesday Lang frowned, looking inexplicable.

Ran Yan continued, "I'll give you six years, you can choose the imperial examination, do business, no matter what kind of livelihood, if you make some fame, I will return your mother's deed of sale, if not, then your mother can only be my Ran Seventeen Niang's slave for the rest of her life." You don't have an opinion, right? ”

Twelve or thirteen years old is still an innocent child in modern times, but in ancient times, it was not too young, and he could have participated in the imperial examination a long time ago.

Wednesday Lang's pursed lips gradually loosened, and he said solemnly, "Okay! ”

"Go back first, I have something to tell your mother." Ran Yan said lightly. She didn't really care about Zhou Lang's future, and it was just a matter of doing it, if he really had great success in the future, maybe it would be useful, and there would be no loss anyway.

And even if Zhou Lang has no achievements in the future, Ran Yan has no intention of making the Liu family a servant forever, but she is short of manpower now, and the Liu family seems to be a good candidate.

Liu watched Zhou Lang leave, and once again solemnly gave Ran Yan a big gift, "Don't thank you for your kindness, the slave will definitely do his best to serve the lady in the future!" ”

Liu Shi was prostrate on the ground, she didn't hear an echo for a long time, she only felt that the light in front of her was bright, and she subconsciously looked up. In his eyes, it was Ran Yan who folded the deed of sale into a long strip and stretched it into the small square lamp beside him, and when he took it out, the flames had already burned the deed of sale.

Liu Shi looked at it in amazement, the firelight reflected Ran Yan's calm dark eyes, until they were all turned into ashes and swept into the rain by the wind, and then they heard her cold voice, "I won't ask for retribution with kindness, it's just that I'm in a bad situation right now, and I need a suitable person around me to help me, this deed of sale is invalid, and Ran Seventeen is here to ask Mrs. Liu to help me." ”

As he spoke, Ran Yan sat down and solemnly bowed to Liu.

Liu was taken aback, and hurriedly got up to help Ran Yan, "The lady killed the slave, the lady is the benefactor of my mother and son, if there is a difficulty and needs help, the slave is naturally duty-bound!" ”

Liu's heart said, it seems that the rumors in the market are not credible, I originally heard that Ran Qiniang is a cowardly and weak abandoned girl, and her heart is also very good, but when I see it today, this cold appearance and this means, where is half cowardly.

Ran Yan didn't know that her method of buying people's hearts with benevolence made Liu think highly of her in her heart.

When Ran Yan was outside of work, she didn't talk much, and she didn't have much to talk to Liu for a while, so she asked her to go back first and come to work tomorrow.

From beginning to end, Wan Lu and Xing Niang have been silently waiting, and after Liu left, Wan Lu said a little puzzled, "Lady, since you want to use her, why did you burn the deed of sale?" ”

Xing Niang said, "This Liu is not an ordinary woman at first glance, she behaves decently, talks extraordinary, judging from her willingness to be a slave to repay the grace of saving her life, her person must attach great importance to faithfulness, this kind of person, if she can't accept her heart, wouldn't it be a pity?" ”

"Oh!" Evening green suddenly, Ran Yan with sparkling eyes said, "The lady is really amazing!" ”

Ran Yan just smiled faintly, Liu is shrewd, and she must be able to see the deep meaning, but no matter what, she saved Zhou Lang, and she didn't ask for a high return, I believe that Liu knows it.

Although Xing Niang said the Tao, if she was asked to do this matter, she would definitely not know where to start. Ran Yan's current actions also made her feel very relieved, and she didn't have much suspicion, after all, the original Ran Yan was also smart, but she was just cowardly.

"Don't rub around here, the lady is going to the tea party tomorrow, go and get the new clothes out!" Xing Niang laughed at the evening greenway.

Evening Green jumped up and said, "Really? Someone invited a lady? Great, I've got a half-finished skirt in my hand, and I'm going to get it out by tomorrow morning! ”

Xing Niang knew that the purple saro skirt that Wanlu was making was the best of the materials she bought last time, but even so, it was only a medium color, and tomorrow's tea party was full of ladies and nobles, which one was not extremely dressed?

"Tomorrow's tea party will definitely be full of flowers, and the clothes worn by the lady will look shabby......" Xing Niang reminded that there is no other way to do it now, but to let Ran Yan have a psychological preparation first.

"Clothes that are neat and decent, don't need to be too flashy." Ran Yan flipped through the medical book and said casually.

Xing Niang sighed in her heart, seeing that Ran Yan had no intention of resting for a while, she went to look for evening green, and discussed changing the skirt to a more novel style, as meticulous as possible in workmanship, since the material is not good, I have to make up for it in the side aspects!

Because she was going to get up early tomorrow, Ran Yan read the book for a while and fell asleep, letting Xing Niang and Wanlu squat aside and mutter.

A night of gentle drizzle, perfect for sleeping.

The next day, at the beginning of the day, Ran Yan was dug up from the couch by Xing Niang, and after grooming, after breakfast, he sat in front of the makeup mirror and was fiddled with by Xing Niang.

Ran Yan fell asleep after a return to sleep, and when she opened her eyes again, she was still the same, Xing Niang pressed it back and forth on her face, and she didn't dare to apply makeup?

"Lady, do you feel a little more energetic?" Xing Niang asked with a smile.

After a little recollection, I realized that this was a pre-makeup massage or something like that, in order to make my spirit and complexion look better.

At this time, Wan Lu came in with a piece of clothing and waited for Ran Yan to change into it, and then Xing Niang combed her with a low butterfly bun according to the style of the clothes, covering up a little coldness between Ran Yan's eyebrows, and a little more charm of her daughter's family.

Everything was dressed up, and when Ran Yan stood up and looked in the mirror, he was really taken aback. In the mirror, she wore a purple wide-sleeved Luo skirt, the pleats of the skirt were like smoke and fog on the ground, and the collar and cuffs were trimmed with gold embroidered satin, which suppressed this ethereal atmosphere for a few points, looking gorgeous and solemn. The clothes of China are really beautiful!

Ran Yan was shocked not because she became beautiful, but because she was dressed up, which softened her cold and stiff feeling, so that at first glance, she didn't recognize herself.

"A lady is born beautiful, and she looks good in anything." was intimidated by Ran Yan Ronghua, and only after a long time did he burst out of a sentence.

The corners of Xing Niang's eyebrows and eyes were full of smiles, "The lady followed her wife, her skin was like jade, and she was born fair, but she didn't need to learn from others." As she spoke, she took the rouge, dipped it in her palm and gently swept it on Ran Yan's cheeks.

"There's something missing." Xing Niang looked up and down, took out a few pieces of jewelry from the makeup box, and gestured at Ran Yan. In the end, a jade bracelet and a jade orchid hairpin were selected.

These are all relics of Mrs. Zheng, and although there are not many remaining items, they are all treasures.

"The lady is very beautiful just by dressing up like this, if she dresses up, I am afraid that she will be overwhelmed by the country and the city." Xing Niang helped her insert the hairpin while looking in the mirror.

It didn't matter if she looked at it, but half of her soul was shocked, Xing Niang turned around, looked at the man in Chinese clothes who appeared at the door at some point, and scolded with a fierce look, "Who are you!" Dare to trespass on a private house! ”

Ran Yan found someone at the same time as Xing Niang, but she didn't panic, turned around, frowned at Qin Shilang who looked obsessed, and said lightly, "My boudoir here, please respect yourself." ”

Qin Musheng came back to his soul, but he still couldn't hold back the amazing gaze in his eyes, looked at Ran Yan and said, "Seventeen Niang, we are already engaged, we shouldn't have to be so taboo, right?" ”

Datang is open, and it is not a strange thing to get in the car before marriage, not to mention that the fiancΓ© visits the boudoir! But Qin Musheng came uninvited, which was really annoying.

***

Sorry, I have something up my sleeve today, it's a little late.

In order to break the seriousness of general crime-solving novels, this book is a combination of solving cases and life, and the progress of the case will not be fast, mainly showing the forensic knowledge of the heroine, so the case may not be as thrilling as traditional detective novels, but there will be a lot of autopsy scenes (not excluding bloody scenes, within the acceptable range of normal people), say hello to everyone first, so as not to frighten the children at that time.
