Chapter 45: The Joy of Family
In the afternoon, the spring thunder sounded muffled, and on the edge of the big pear wood long table by the window on the second floor of the garment bureau, Yu Yang was sleeping sweetly on the table, the corners of his mouth were still raised, as if he was having a sweet dream, and he didn't notice that Lord Luo Lan, the head of the garment bureau, was sitting next to him.
Luo Lan wore glass eyepieces, looking at her latest patterns one by one, and also looked at her newly designed patterns, and the expression on her face couldn't see anything.
Shi Yan, who was standing on the side, was worried that Yu Yang would be reprimanded, so he pretended to choke and coughed loudly violently, Luo Lan raised his eyes to look at Shi Yan, who had poor acting skills, shook his head, and returned his gaze to Yu Yang.
She had just woken up in a panic and confusion, staggered up from her chair, bowed her head and saluted: "Lord Principal! β
Luo Lan put down the pattern in his hand, still looked at her seriously as usual, and asked, "How do you think you are painting now?" β
"This ......" Yu Yang quietly raised his head and glanced at Shi Yan, Shi Yan hurriedly nodded to give her a hint, and she replied cautiously, "Yes...... There should be some improvement...... Right? β
Seeing that the relationship between these two people is so good, Luo Lan is also a lot relieved, he looked at Shi Yan behind him, then at Yu Yang, and said in a reprimanding tone: "The students taught by Shi Yan are naturally not bad, they have indeed improved a lot, and the pattern is also a little bit like, but ......"
Before Luo Lan finished speaking, Yu Yang was already excited when he heard her little recognition, and thanked him again and again: "Thank you, Lord Principal!" Thank you, Mr. Principal! β
Luo Lan shook his head, got up and left Yu Yang's position, leaving behind what he had just said halfway: "But you still have to practice diligently, and you must not slack off." β
"Yes! Yuyang will definitely do it! Yu Yang stood up straight happily, and while watching Luo Lan walk away, he jumped in front of Shi Yan excitedly, and said excitedly, "Lord Luo Lan praised me, praised me!" Thanks to Lord Shi Yan, I was able not to be scolded. β
Shi Yan smiled, patted her on the shoulder and said, "This is all the result of your own efforts, thank me for what to do." But you seem to be sleepy today, you didn't rest last night, okay? β
Last night, it was the early morning of the next day when Ling Tian sent her to Anming Building, and she couldn't fall asleep immediately after washing, even if she was in a bad state today, remembering the picture of Ling Tian holding her hand yesterday, she couldn't help but feel hot again, and hurriedly shook her head, seeing that Shi Yan was carrying a toolkit that she used when she went out, she hurriedly changed the topic and asked, "Is Lord Shi Yan going out?" β
"Hmm." Shi Yan patted the bag on his waist and said, "Princess Changqin has returned to Ruian City with her husband, Prince Junlisi, and I have to go over to help prepare the food and clothing room in Ruian City." β
"Princess Changqin? The eldest daughter of Mrs. Qingning, Prince Suroika? Can...... I didn't hear anything before I left today. β
"Not long after they arrived, even Madame and the young masters of Ruian City had just set off to rush back. Not much to say, the task is important, I won't go back to the garment bureau today, if you have any questions to ask Renwen, it's the same, I'll go first. After speaking, Shi Yan left the second floor of the garment bureau, and Yu Yang gave him a section, and he was in a daze on the railing at the staircase, remembering the portrait he saw in Yu Pavilion, and the appearance of the older elder sister looking at the youngest brother gently.
Is that person Princess Changqin?
Just before Yuyang learned the news, Lady Qingning had already set off from Yayu City in a hurry.
"Quick! Hurry up! Mrs. Qingning, who was in the car, was overjoyed and surprised, constantly urging the driver to speed up the horsepower and rush to Ruian City, she was happy that her favorite eldest daughter Changqin had finally returned, and she was surprised that the crown prince Lisi had also arrived, no paperwork, no notice. It stands to reason that there will be news from the border guards, but this time there has been no report, which is really worrying.
When the lady arrived at the Ruian City Anli Building, there were already two rows of unfamiliar faces wearing Suroika national costumes standing outside the door, which were the waiters and maids of the Suroika royal family.
Madame quickened her pace and walked into the Anli Building, where her longing daughter, Changqin, was sitting on the sofa in the hall at this time, talking to the familiar maid, while her husband, Crown Prince of Suroica, Touro von Lees, was sitting on the sofa opposite her at the moment, elegantly sipping the spring tea that Qingmo had just produced.
Changqin used his spare eyes to look at Mrs. Qingning who walked into the hall, dressed in exquisite and luxurious Suroika traditional costumes, grabbed the fluffy skirt and quickly stood up, the big brown eyes of the water narrowed into a line with a smile, and the playful short brown curls also swayed with her waving movements, and shouted happily: "Mom! I'm back! β
Prince Lisi put down his glass, smiled politely at Mrs. Qingning, got up and slowly stood up from his position, and made a Suroika salute to Mrs.
Madame went up to Prince Lis, gave him a brief etiquette, and then said to him according to the established etiquette: "We did not know that Prince Lisi had arrived, and we were really disappointed." β
Hearing that his wife was so polite, he replied with a smile in standard Wanting dialect: "Mother-in-law, Lisi came back for family affairs, not for state affairs, and I am your son-in-law at this moment. β
Prince Ris is tall and tall, with deep eye sockets, a high nose bridge, long eyelashes lined with a pair of blue eyes, light blonde hair combed into a neat back, and a white face without any bloodβthis is a characteristic of the royal family of Suroika, which is very different from the appearance of the people of Wanting.
Without waiting for Mrs. Qingning to be polite again, Changqin had already slipped to Mrs. Niang's side, hugged her tightly, and couldn't help jumping up, so that Mrs. couldn't hold back the false reserve, and hugged her beloved daughter tightly - that was her most beloved child, the pearl of the palm that she swore to give her the highest honor, she hadn't seen her for a long time, and she couldn't bear this hard thought.
Madame let go of Changqin's embrace, but still held her in her arms and cherished her, and asked, "Why did you suddenly run back and don't tell me, I can let someone pick you up and your husband and wife, right?" β
"I originally wanted to come back alone, but Toshiko said that he didn't agree with anything, and he must come back with me, he said...... ......Halfway through the words, the naughty and coquettish on Changqin's face suddenly turned shy, and the lady was puzzled and looked at Lisi.
Still smiling politely, he said to Madame, "Madame, please...... Hold Changqin a little lightly. β
"What's wrong?" Hearing what Lisi said, Mrs. hurriedly let go of her hand, looked at Changqin nervously, and then looked at Lisi, and suddenly understood, surprised and happy, and asked Changqin in disbelief with wide eyes, "You!" Do you have it? β
As soon as these words came out, Changqin was so ashamed that he covered his face again, and hid in Prince Lisi's chest, Prince Lisi hugged her with a smile, and said to his wife: "Changqin is almost five months pregnant, and she wants to raise a fetus in Wanting to give birth, I can't let go of my heart, so I took the liberty to accompany her back, and I didn't tell Mrs. in advance, I hope Mrs. forgiveness." β
Hearing such good news, Madame had already put her guard against Prince Ris behind, and was only interested in family fun, and smiled. Changqin left Lisi's arms again, looking at Mrs. coquettishly, Mrs. hurriedly held Changqin's round face, and the joy in her words overflowed, only reading: "Okay, great!" It's really great! β
Subsequently, Yun Shen and Lan Hai, who also rushed back after hearing the news, had also come to the hall of Anli Building, Lan Hai saw Changqin, and was so happy that he didn't care to salute Prince Lisi on the side, shouting "Sister Changqin" was about to rush to Changqin, and was pushed away by the gas wall that Mrs. had stored with a gust of wind spirit from a distance, and flew out a few meters away.
"Madame!" Yun Shen was stunned, and hurriedly stepped forward to see how Lan Hai was, but Lan Hai's sturdy body and bones naturally didn't even hurt, so he quickly sat up, looked at Madame with a look of confusion and grievance, and asked, "Madam, what did I do wrong again?" β
Mrs. suddenly pulled down the smile she had just now, and said to the two of them seriously: "Your sister is pregnant, I see which of you dares to touch Changqin's finger." β
Lan Hai and Yun Shen glanced at each other and shouted in tacit understanding: "Really?!" And hurriedly stepped forward to see Changqin, but was reminded by Mrs. with a dry cough, and the two of them reacted, and hurriedly turned to Prince Lisi on the side, and saluted: "I have seen His Royal Highness the Prince." β
Lisi still smiled politely and replied, "No need to be formal, it's all my own family, and I may have to bother everyone during this time." β
When Yun Shen heard him say this, he felt that something was wrong, and activated his spiritual magic and asked him: "If His Royal Highness the Prince wants to stay in Wanting, it is naturally fine, but it is just the official business of your country......"
Prince Lisi was about to answer, but Changqin said for him: "The road is too far, Lizi said that he will stay in Wanting until the child is full moon and then return to China, if anything happens, he will rush back by himself, and come to Wanting after dealing with it." β
The keen Yun Shen naturally understood that this meant a huge risk, and still with a caring smile, he continued to ask Prince Lisi: "The capital of Suroika, Jiena, is far away from the westernmost part of the mainland, and Xun Li is at the easternmost edge of the continent, and it takes a week to come here, and half a month back and forth, and it is too hard for His Royal Highness the Prince to travel like this. β
Prince Lisi did not hesitate, looked at Yun Shen's eyes and said sincerely: "For Changqin, it's only half a month's journey, not to mention that my father is here in Suroika, I really can't help much, so I don't need to go back." β
Looking at Prince Lisi's smile and his sincere attitude, Yun Shen was full of worry, although Prince Lisi spoke Wanting dialect, the thoughts in his mind were Suroika, only fragmentary words, and most of the information spliced together was something he had already explored - he had already learned through secret agents that the current monarch of Suroika, Turo von Salesson, had long since disappeared, although he was in power, most of the domestic affairs were handed over to the crown prince Prince Lisi to take care of, and now he appeared here, and had the intention of staying for a long time and going back and forth between the two countries, As a diplomat, Yun Shen has to be vigilant.
Yun Shen was about to open his mouth to continue to ask, and the lady took the first step to say to Prince Lisi: "Since you are here, you should spend a long vacation in Wanting, except for meeting with Your Majesty, no other activities will be arranged, Changqin is naughty, always very noisy, and you have to be there to make her quiet for a while." β
Speaking of this, Changqin stuck out his tongue embarrassedly, Lisi also smiled, and the topic changed from a subtle sense of distrust to warmth, and Yun Shen calmed down, only to feel a little reckless just now.
The lady asked Changqin again, "What do you want to eat?" It was almost noon, and I asked the kitchen to get ready. β
Speaking of food, Chang Qin glanced out the door, and the lady who put her daughter on the tip of her heart naturally understood what she was thinking, and said with a smile: "Do you want to eat what Xingzhe made?" He has an urgent matter to deal with, and he can't come back for the time being, so he can eat casually at noon, and I'll let him make you a table of your favorite food in the evening, okay? β
"Really?!" Thinking of the food made by her younger brother Xingzhe, she nodded again and again, and then asked, "What about Ling Tian?" Where is he? β
"He ......" was asked by Changqin, and the lady remembered that she didn't have time to inform Ling Tian, and Yun Shen on the side replied: "Ling Tian is on His Majesty's side, maybe just wait......
"Sister Changqin!"
