Leaving the smoke cage courtyard, Ruan Qi entered the orchid garden and saw Gu Lingan greet him with a smile.

Looking at the little woman in front of her as if the flowers after the spring rain were fresh and refined, Ruan Qi's originally unhappy mood instantly improved a lot.

On the first day of returning home, Ruan Qi wrote poems and songs with Gu Ling'an in the Orchid Garden, played chess, played the piano, painted, and even ate lunch there, just like they were in Jiangnan in the past.

Ruan Mianmian accompanied Zhou Yuning all day long, although her mother was nothing on the surface, she could feel her uneasiness and sadness.

Finally, when the sun set, I heard the little girl outside say that the third master was back, Ruan Mianmian didn't want to see Ruan Qi, she got up to say goodbye but was stopped by her mother.

"San Lang." Zhou Yuning blurted out when she saw Ruan Qi coming in.

Seeing Zhou Yuning's face full of anticipation, red eyes, and hearing the familiar name, Ruan Qi's heart softened.

"Yun Ning, in the past few years, I have wronged you."

"Not aggrieved." Zhou Yuning's eyes were red.

Ruan Qi stepped forward and grabbed Zhou Yunning's hand, seeing this, Shuang'er glanced at the surrounding subordinates, and soon they retreated.

Ruan Mianmian also let go of Zhou Yuning's hand and took Jiu'er back to the room to change clothes.

That night, the family of three had dinner together for the first time.

Ruan Mianmian was reluctant at all, but later Zhou Yuning came to call her in person, and she could only barely cope.

Except for Jiu'er and Shuang'er, who were not far from Ruan Mianmian's left, Zhou Yunning sent all the other subordinates out.

The couple looked warmer than when they first met, Ruan Mianmian didn't smile much, but she didn't keep a straight face. She still doesn't like Ruan Qi, and she won't let down her guard because of his little change.

"Mianmian, come, eat more." Zhou Yuning did not ignore her baby daughter.

"Thank you, mother."

Ruan Qi showed displeasure: "How old are you, you have to take care of your mother even for dinner." ”

"I'm only four years old." Ruan Mianmian took the words and grinned at Zhou Yuning, "My mother loves me, I am willing to be spoiled by her." ”

The little milk dumpling is not soft or hard, so it almost knows what to do with you, Zhou Yuning didn't notice it, but Ruan Qi understood the meaning of her words.

Ruan Qi suddenly remembered what Gu Lingan had said in Lanyuan today. She said that Ruan Mianmian was a mature child, and her shrewdness was far beyond her age, even she was ashamed of herself.

Now that I think about it, everything Ruan Mianmian says seems to be something in her words, she has seven tricks and exquisite heart, if she takes the right path, it is naturally good, if she goes crooked, it will be troublesome.

Facing the face that looked like his own, Ruan Qi made up his mind to straighten Ruan Mianmian while he was still young.

Ruan Mianmian didn't know what Ruan Qi was thinking, but from the way he stared at him, he guessed that what he was thinking at the moment must be related to himself.

Slightly bowing his head and the little milk dumpling to hide the mockery on his face, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, Ruan Mianmian is really not afraid.

"Yun Ning, you should be enlightened at the age of three, Mianmian is already four years old, and she can't be delayed."

Ruan Qi is not stupid, he found that Ruan Mianmian's only weakness is her mother-in-law, so it is better to tell Zhou Yuning than to talk to the little milk dumpling.

"There was no delay." Zhou Yuning naturally noticed that the father and daughter were not harmonious, but in her mind, it just took time to run in.

Ruan Qi frowned: "Soon it will be five years old, and it will be too late if you don't enlighten yourself." My Ruan Qi's daughter is so old that she can't even recognize words, isn't it smearing me? ”

"Don't think you're amazing." Ruan Mianmian swallowed the food in her mouth and said, "Without you, there are naturally others to teach me." So far, it's been taught pretty well. ”

At this point, the little milk dumpling paused for a moment before continuing, "I'm much better than you." ”

"You're better than me?" Ruan Qi couldn't doubt if his ears had heard it wrong, he had been said to be inferior to people since he was a child, but he said it to his face, and the person who said it was his daughter.

Zhou Yuning listened to Ruan Mianmian's boasting, and she didn't break it, but just covered her mouth and snickered.

Ruan Mianmian ate eight points full, she took the handkerchief handed by Jiu'er and wiped her mouth, and then squinted at Ruan Qi: "Don't believe it, you ask my mother." ”

I also ate the meal, which can be regarded as giving my mother face. The couple needs to communicate well, so they don't need to be light bulbs here.

"You guys use it slowly, I'll go first."

"Stop." Ruan Qi came back to his senses and shouted, "I still have something to ask you." ”

Ruan Mianmian turned around abruptly with a displeased face: "There is nothing about me that my mother doesn't know, you can ask her if you don't understand anything, as for whether you believe it or not, it's up to you." ”

Originally, I also wanted to get along with him, but when I saw him and thought of Gu Lingan, Ruan Mianmian felt uncomfortable, for no reason, she simply didn't like that woman.

Ruan Qi slapped the table, startling Zhou Yuning, but Ruan Mianmian took Jiu'er away as if she hadn't heard it.

"Look, what are you used to?" Failing to lose his temper with the little milk dumpling, Ruan Qi turned to Zhou Yuning.

Zhou Yunning's face was full of grievances: "Mianmian is very sensible, and what she said is not wrong." ”

"That's right, it's right to be arrogant to this extent." Ruan Qi was angry, "Listen to what she said." Say she's much better than me? What is the person who taught her? ”

"The one who taught her was your father." Zhou Yuning replied sluggishly.

"It was ...... who taught her." Ruan Qi was stunned for a moment before coming back to her senses, "You said that my father taught her personally?" ”

Zhou Yuning straightened her waist and finally regained face: "That's right, Mianmian was personally enlightened and taught by the old marquis. ”

"The eldest brother and second brother didn't have the opportunity to be taught by their father, that is, I was enlightened by his old man himself." Ruan Qi finally accepted this fact.

Regarding Yunning's Dese last week, Ruan Qi tried to save face for herself: "But she shouldn't lie." ”

"She didn't lie, the old marquis said more than once that Mianmian is better than blue." Zhou Yunning frowned, her mother was not happy to hear that someone slandered her children, even if that person was her husband, she was no exception.

If the parent-child relationship between the mother and the child is connected by blood from the time of pregnancy, then the parent-child relationship between the father and the child is mostly not cultivated until the child is born.

Ruan Qi disappeared shortly after Zhou Yuning became pregnant, and he really didn't have much affection for his daughter. In his mind, Ruan Mianmian is not as good as Gu Lingan, who has been with him day and night for five years and has taken care of him carefully.

Even Zhou Yuning, Ruan Qi doesn't remember how she started with her, but she remembers the bits and pieces after she entered the mansion.

In Ruan Qi's heart, Zhou Yuning is his wife, just a woman, nothing special, he doesn't even understand why he married her despite his parents' opposition in the first place.

At this moment, Ruan Qi has mixed feelings in his heart, he has always regarded himself as high-minded and arrogant, and he has been belittled like this for the first time, he not only has no good impression of Ruan Mianmian, but even has a little disgust.
