Li Mingming, eighteen years old, is the eldest son of the king of southern Xinjiang, but because Li Minghui's younger brother is also the concubine of the king of southern Xinjiang, he is very much respected by Li Heng.

Pingsuri, because they are all favored, so Li Minghui and Li Mingming are quite close, and when she saw him asking, she naturally told him everything that happened.

Li Mingming's eyes flashed: "In this way, this Linglong County Lord is quite powerful at a young age. ”

Li Minghui looked at Li Mingming and suddenly smiled, she lowered her voice: "If you talk about appearance, Ruan Mianmian is really soft and cute, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince treats her differently, but he is helping him talk." ”

"Oh, Li Yu treats her differently." A dark light flashed in Li Mingming's eyes.

"Ruan Mianmian slapped me in the face, that is, the Ding'an Marquis Mansion slapped our Southern Xinjiang Palace's face, and it slapped my father's face." Li Minghui was very angry, "In short, this feud is settled." ”

"You've always prided yourself on being smart, but don't mess around, there are opportunities." Li Mingzhi patted Li Minghui on the shoulder, "No matter how bad it is, there is still my brother and me." ”

"Hmm." Li Minghui lowered her head slightly, and her eyes flashed with calculation.

Knowing that Ruan Geng took Ruan Mianmian into the palace to plead guilty, Zhou Yunning fidgeted, walked around the smoke cage courtyard several times, and even asked Shuang'er to wait at the gate of the Hou Mansion, if he saw the county lord return to the mansion, he would report immediately.

Seeing that the sun had set, Ruan Mianmian hadn't returned home yet, Zhou Yuning couldn't sit still, she came directly to the gate and waited with Shuang'er.

didn't wait for the grandparents and grandchildren, but Ruan Qi came back, he dragged Zhou Yuning, saying that there was something important, and the couple went back to the smoke cage courtyard.

"Tell me what you have to say." Zhou Yunning asked impatiently, and at the same time looked outside.

After retiring all the people around him, Ruan Qi spoke: "Yun Ning, is the monthly routine of our Smoke Cage Courtyard still the same as before?" ”

It turned out that he wanted to ask about the silver, but it seemed that Ruan Qi was short of money, and Zhou Yuning understood it as soon as he heard it.

Ruan Qihao returned home, Ruan Mianmian once told Zhou Yunning that Mrs. Ruan felt sorry for him and gave him a lot of silver in private, and he also gave Gu Lingan a lot.

If it was Zhou Yuning in the past, then she really didn't have much silver in her hands, and now it was different from the past, and when she thought that she still had her precious daughter's money in her hands, she instantly had an idea.

"According to the regulations of the house, you and I are twenty taels each month, and Mianmian is ten taels, so the smoke cage courtyard is fifty taels per month, and I will let Shuang'er go to the account room to withdraw half a year's share for you."

"Okay." Ruan Qi breathed a sigh of relief, "I'll wait here, you let Shuang'er fetch it." ”

"Okay, wait." After the words fell, Zhou Yuning turned around and left, thinking about her daughter's flawless delay.

Ruan Qi saw that Zhou Yuning didn't go back like this, and he was very upset, he remembered the days when he was in the Hou Mansion after getting married, when she was always sticky and followed him, and now she only has Ruan Mianmian in her heart.

After a while, Shuang'er sent the monthly price of three hundred taels of silver for half a month in the Yanlang Courtyard to Ruan Qi.

After getting the silver, Ruan Qi walked out of the smoke cage courtyard, he thought about going out of the house, but he didn't expect to meet Gu Lingan halfway.

"Third brother." Gu Ling'an bowed to Ruan Qi in a proper manner.

Ruan Qi gave a hand: "No need to be polite." ”

Seeing Gu Lingan standing up, Ruan Qi frowned: "Lingan has lost a lot of weight, is it that the people in the house are not attentive?" ”

"No, the people in the house are very nice, especially Fang'er takes good care of me. It's just a serious illness, and it's inevitable to lose weight. ”

Ruan Qi glanced at Fang'er behind Gu Ling'an, and she said obediently: "It is the duty of a slave to take care of Miss. ”

Seeing Ruan Qichao nodding slightly, Fang'er was happy in her heart, and the third master recognized herself.

"You look really haggard." Ruan Qi's gaze turned to Gu Ling'an.

"Sickness comes like a mountain, and illness goes like a thread."

"Then you need to take care of yourself."

Gu Ling'an was brought into the Hou Mansion by him, but during this time, he was negligent, and even Lanyuan went less, and Ruan Qi suddenly felt a little guilty.

"If the third brother is not busy, can he go to Lanyuan to sit and have a cup of tea?"

"It's ......." Ruan Qi hesitated a little, "It's not reasonable." ”

"If that's the case, after Daddy's death, what about you and me for more than a year?"

That's right, Ruan Qi looked up and saw Gu Lingan staring at him, his eyes were full of expectation, and he couldn't help but nodded.

Gu Lingan looked happy, stepped forward and grabbed Ruan Qi's arm affectionately with both hands, he originally wanted to shake off her hand, but it can be seen that her eyes are full of dependence, and he can't bear to be by her after all.

Besides, when Zhou Yuning hurriedly returned to the gate of the Hou Mansion, it was already dark, and the people of the Hou Mansion had already hung up the lanterns.

When he was anxious, he saw Ding'anhou's carriage coming from a distance, Zhou Yunning breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and ordered Shuang'er to go to Fu'an Hall to tell the old lady.

Ruan Mianmian got out of the car and saw Zhou Yuning, she was picked up by her mother before she could be called.

"Mother." Ruan Mianmian knew that Zhou Yuning must be worried, and hurriedly said, "It's okay, the Queen Mother also rewarded me with a bracelet." ”

Hearing this, Zhou Yunning's hanging heart finally landed.

At this moment, Ruan Geng slowly got out of the carriage.

"Father." Zhou Yuning put down Ruan Mianmian and stepped forward to salute.

Ruan Geng and Yan Yuese: "I've been waiting for a long time, it's okay." Take Mianmian back to the smoke cage courtyard and let her rest. ”

"Yes."

Back in the smoke cage courtyard, after changing clothes and freshening up for dinner, Ruan Mianmian saw the tiredness in Zhou Yunning's eyes, she excused herself to be tired, and asked Shuang'er to wait for her to go back to rest quickly.

"County Lord."

When Jiu'er came in, Ruan Mianmian had already finished changing and grooming under the service of the little maid, and was reclining on the couch to rest.

"Something?"

"I really can't hide anything from the eyes of the county lord."

Ruan Mianmian said lazily: "You disappeared just now, there must be something before you left." ”

"The third master went to Orchid Garden, and he was still there for dinner just now."

"Even if my mother doesn't know about this at the moment, she will soon find out." Ruan Mianmian blinked her eyes, "Adults, children don't care, my mother will deal with it herself." ”

Hearing this, Jiu'er smiled: "Is the county magistrate's affairs still less managed?" ”

"It's a lot." Ruan Mianmian fell down on the couch, "But it's just one Gu Lingan, and I don't need to work hard." ”

"I don't think the county lord has to worry about it because the third lady has changed."

"Yes, my mother has changed and become better." Ruan Mianmian smiled and closed her eyes, "I'm really tired, I'll rest for a while." ”

Jiu'er tiptoed into the inner room, took out the quilt and gently covered Ruan Mianmian, and then quietly retreated to the outside room and sat down to guard.

Besides, Zhou Yuning was about to rest, and found that Shuang'er wanted to speak and stopped, and she immediately sensed that she had something to say after the master and servant had been together for many years.

Facing Yun Ning's puzzled gaze last week, Shuang'er lowered her voice and whispered in her ear.

"It doesn't matter."
