Mrs. Xiao was surprised and delighted: "Xiao Ran, you really said what I wanted."

Lin Xiaoran scratched his head a little embarrassed: "I just said it casually, and I don't understand it very well."

Mrs. Xiao smiled: "In the face of excellent people, you have to praise them, you don't have to be modest, right, Rong Zhi?"

Lin Xiaoran poured a warm current into her heart, Mrs. Xiao really treated herself very well, remembered her everywhere, and didn't want to let herself suffer a little grievance.

On the contrary to her, Rong Zhi was not so happy, and he gritted his teeth a little when he spoke: "What Madam said is that Miss Lin is talented and intelligent."

When Mrs. Xiao heard this, she felt that something was wrong, but because Lin Xiaoran was present and couldn't say anything in front of her, she just looked at her with a little warning, and got up with a smile.

Mrs. Xiao pulled Lin Xiaoran to sit down, "I said you kid, why hide it?" ”

Lin Xiaoran shook his head and said frankly: "I am dull by nature, and it is mainly because of the tempering of the little marquis that I can reach the current level."

"I seem to hear my name mentioned."

Xiao Yi seemed to be just right every time she appeared, and the moment their voices fell, Xiao Yi's voice rang out.

Hearing this, Lin Xiaoran almost jumped up happily, thinking of the current occasion and being much more stable, with an upward tone, "It's me, it's me!" I'm praising you for teaching well. ”

The strategy index, you should rise quickly!

However, Xiao Yi just smiled lightly, and his tone had some alternative feelings, "The master led the door, and the cultivation is personal, and the main thing is that you have a high comprehension ability, otherwise it will be in vain for me to teach you again." ”

Mrs. Xiao smiled: "Xiao Ran, hear it, it's you who are excellent."

Lin Xiaoran smiled a little embarrassedly, because the strategy index had not changed, and a trace of loss flashed in his eyes.

Xiao Yi then proposed: "It's been a long time since I've played chess with my mother."

Mrs. Xiao saw Xiao Yi's other intentions, and said jokingly: "I think you want to test Xiao Ran's chess skills."

Hearing this, Xiao Yi just smiled and didn't speak, but Mrs. Xiao knew what he was thinking, and hurriedly asked Rong Zhi to clean up the chessboard.

After the chessboard was cleaned up, Xiao Yi took the lead in taking a seat, and Lin Xiaoran was enthusiastically pressed aside by Mrs. Xiao to sit down.

Looking at the white chess pieces in the box in Mrs. Xiao's hand, she swallowed silently, and she didn't know if her current level could understand a single and a half points.

When playing chess, Xiao Yi held the sunspot first, and the war was very hot, and the two sides did not give up a cent.

Mrs. Xiao looked at Lin Xiaoran's serious face, and said with a smile: "Xiaoran, you don't have to be nervous, you can say whatever you want."

Lin Xiaoran showed a standard smile and said sweetly: "What am I so nervous, I am very relaxed, and I am not afraid of saying the wrong thing in front of you."

Xiao Yi held his chin in his left hand and asked with interest, "What did you see in this game of chess?"

Lin Xiaoran said frankly: "You're going to lose."

Xiao Yi smiled, and then asked, "How did you see it?"

"For example, if you didn't play the chess so impulsively just now, maybe you still have a certain amount of vitality, and now you have lost the generals and warriors, and the chessboard is isolated, you will definitely lose." Lin Xiaoran looked at the chess game carefully and analyzed it seriously.

Xiao Yi shrugged his shoulders and smiled at Lin Xiaoran.

Mrs. Xiao saw the signs and shook her head with a smile: "Hey, it's because I'm old, and I have to play chess."

Xiao Yi changed his attitude: "Where is the mother, it is the son who is not against you."

Lin Xiaoran nodded heavily, and seconded the proposal: "Madame is the best!"

The room was very lively, and everyone was very happy, and there was a sense of joy.

Lin Xiaoran, who returned to the house, was a little surprised to find that he had recently made progress in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

What I didn't know in the past will naturally appear in my mind now when I look at it, and progress is rapid.

Xiao Yi heard about Lin Xiaoran's deeds, and when he returned to the courtyard, he praised people without hesitation.

But before he finished speaking, Jiang Yunshu's voice sounded outside the hospital.

"Is Miss Lin here?"

Lin Xiaoran, who was practicing calligraphy, was stunned when she heard this, and actually came to find her.

"Yes." Lin Xiaoran hurriedly put down his pen and went out, and replied with a smile.

Jiang Yunshu walked into the courtyard with a smile, "The little marquis has been strange lately, staying idle in this courtyard all day long, it's really not like you." ”

"I know where I'm comfortable."

Xiao Yi picked up the big characters written by Lin Xiaoran, and said while reading it, as if he didn't take her words to heart at all.

Jiang Yunshu was stunned, laughed awkwardly twice, and then asked the maid behind him to put the food box in his hand on the table, and then looked at Lin Xiaoran with a smile on his face.

"Xiao Ran, this is a pastry made by the chef in our house, I thought you didn't eat it, so I brought a few pieces, come and taste it."

After Lin Xiaoran heard this, she always felt that something was weird, why did she feel as if she looked down on herself?

But looking at the sincere smile on her face, Lin Xiaoran felt that she was thinking too much, so she sat down with big eyes, opened the food box, took a piece and put it in her mouth and tasted it.

In the next second, her brows furrowed almost invisibly, and a trace of weirdness flashed in her eyes.

That's it?

It's not as delicious as she makes, and it tastes weird.

"If you can't eat it, put it back, the Hou Mansion is not short of these pastries."

When Xiao Yi said this, his dissatisfied eyes swept over Jiang Yunshu as if he were nothing, making the other party's heart tighten, and the expression on his face was a little difficult to see.

"Hehe, Miss Jiang, I ate a lot of things in the afternoon, and now I'm really full, let's taste it slowly in the evening!"

After speaking, Lin Xiaoran hurriedly asked Nanzhu to put away this unpalatable thing, and at the same time glad in his heart that Xiao Yi helped him out of the siege.

Jiang Yunshu gathered his thoughts, stepped forward quickly, leaned next to Xiao Yi and looked at the paper in his hand, and said, "Little Marquis, what are you looking at here, is this Xiao Ran's calligraphy, her handwriting is really not bad." ”

The aura around him was so close that it seemed to fall on him in the next second, Xiao Yi frowned, and moved to the side unhappily, exuding a chill on his body.

Sensing his strange appearance, Jiang Yunshu bit his lip, looked at him strangely and said, "What's the matter, little marquis, don't we often go out to play in the past, why do you have to avoid me just by getting close to you now?" ”

Xiao Yi's sudden birth made her feel very uncomfortable, and she always felt that something between the two had been snatched away.

"You and I are not brothers and sisters, and we will gossip when seen by outsiders."

Hearing this, Jiang Yunshu held his breath and widened his eyes slightly in surprise.

What do you mean by not being a brother and sister?! Aren't they called brothers and sisters in private!

Afraid that others would see something unusual, she quickly adjusted her mentality, looked at him, and said tentatively: "What kind of outsider is this?" ”

The slave maid behind her saw that Lin Xiaoran, who was robbing a man with her own lady, was already dissatisfied, and hurriedly answered: "It seems that the slave and maid are the only outsiders who suddenly appeared Miss Lin, right?" ”
