In the two or three days of the Ruan family's old mansion, Lin Ningsu was not idle, of course, this was not her subjective thought.

Every day, the second lady of Na Ruan arranges her and Ruan Qing's free time to the full, either to enjoy the flowers or to watch the drama and have fun. The ancestors of the Ruan family have made meritorious achievements, and the glory of Ruan Zhuguo's generation is even better. But this is all about Ruan Zhuguo's eldest brother, and Ruan Jiaerlang, who is far away in Cangzhou, is a little inadequate among these brothers.

Therefore, Second Mrs. Ruan has to think about the future of her children, and if she can get along with this Lin girl, it can be regarded as paving the way for these juniors in the family.

The teenage Lin Ningsu didn't understand these things, but she knew the twists and turns of this again. Children and relatives are always concerned for a lifetime, so she can understand what Mrs. Ruan is doing.

What's more, this Second Mrs. Ruan has a hearty temperament, but she is considerate and thoughtful, which will only make people feel that Cangzhou people treat guests like relatives, and there is no discomfort.

On this day, after lunch, everyone sat in the verandah, and Mrs. Ruan also gave up her rest time to accompany her.

"....Miss Lin, can you decide....family matter?" The old lady was weak, and she had to rest for a while when she said a word.

"Mother, you have forgotten that the day before yesterday, Miss Lin sent someone to the street to look for the jade bracelet that was almost discarded. That's what people do. Second Mrs. Ruan explained.

"Which family have you decided?"

"Zhenyuan Houfu Shen." Second Mrs. Ruan's news is well-informed, Lin Ningsu's family affairs have not been made public, but a few confidants and friends know about it. In just two or three days, I inquired so clearly.

The old lady nodded and said, "Zhenyuan is loyal and good for generations, and it is a good family affair....."

At the mention of this, the old lady, who was over seventy years old, was worried. She propped up her sick body, beckoned to Ruan Qing on the side, and said, "Pity our sister Qing, she is a year old for Miss Lin, but she hasn't landed yet." I'm an old woman, I don't know if I can see it... Ahem...."

"Grandmother, that's not a good thing to say." Ruan Qing hurriedly stepped forward to help.

In fact, the hearts of everyone present are mirrored, Ruan Zhuguo is such a daughter, so Ruan Qing's marriage will inevitably be chosen among several princes. And the prince who was chosen as Ruan Qing's husband was most likely the next emperor of the Meng State.

If not, it would be a hasty marriage to a family with a false position and a virtuous name in the court, in order to prevent Ruan Zhuguo from uniting with the family and making a high achievement.

There are too few choices, and there are few lovers, how can the old lady not worry.

Lin Ningsu opened her mouth to comfort: "The old lady doesn't have to worry, Miss Ruan will definitely be able to get a satisfactory husband." She is telling the truth, thinking about it, Lin Yan will definitely cherish the people she cares about.

As soon as her voice fell, she felt that something was wrong.

The emperor would not marry Ruan Qing to a family like the Lin family, but the relationship between Lin Yan and Ruan Qing in the previous life was given by His Majesty himself today.

So, in the eyes of the old emperor at that time, in what capacity did Lin Yan marry Ruan Qingding...

Could it be that the old emperor had long intended to let Lin Yan inherit the Meng family?

If that were the case, there would be less resistance to the marriage between the two. She is alone, so she is not afraid of tossing Meng Huan.

But when I thought of Lin Yan's later affairs and the old emperor's desperation, I felt that the truth was very contradictory to this speculation.

Before she could think about it, she saw the chief steward in Ruan's mansion reporting from outside the hall, looking hurried but smiling, and said: "The problem of the stray soldiers outside the city has been solved, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Prince Lin are visiting from outside the city." ”

As early as the morning, their family heard that the matter outside the city was almost over, but the prince came in person, and he had to go to Governor Cui's mansion first, even if he wanted to come to Ruan's house, it would not be so fast.

The room of people who were still gossiping about homely things instantly became lively, combed their clothes, prepared refreshments, the men went to the door of the house to greet them, and the women stayed in the main hall.

Second Madam Ruan felt sorry for the old lady's body and persuaded: "You can rest in the backyard, Your Highness is coming, I don't know when it will end." ”

The old lady waved her hand and insisted on getting up, but Second Madam Ruan couldn't force it.

The crown prince has been in this position for more than ten years, and he has a deep foundation in the court, and the emperor has to think about it if he wants to abolish the throne, and it is even more impossible for other princes. Therefore, the old lady herself, the husband of her most beloved granddaughter in the future, must be Meng Huan.

She has already half of her body in the ground, and this time she must see who His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is.

Lin Ningsu accompanied Ruan Qing to help the old lady go to the front hall, the old man was inconvenient, and he was more than a quarter of an hour later than the others.

As soon as Fang entered, Lin Ningsu felt that there was a line of sight projected on him, like a thick silk ribbon, to wrap the person tightly.

She raised her eyes and saw Lin Yan and Ruan Erlang sitting together, the two were discussing something, and they were not distracted at all.

Meng Huan Xu put his modest style out again, and in less than a moment, everyone in the front hall lost the restraint of meeting the royal family.

The old lady was just about to bow her head, but was stopped by Meng Huan.

"When the old lady was young, she was stationed outside the border with General Ruan, who went first, and she worked very hard, so how can she respect your great gift." Meng Huan smiled earnestly, instantly flattering the people of the Ruan family.

Old Madam Ruan nodded, her eyes couldn't stop looking at Meng Huan, there was a kind of joy of a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law, and even her spirit was more than prosperous.

Hmph, this person is used to closing people's hearts. Whether it's true or not, I'm afraid even Meng Huan himself can't figure it out.

Although this marriage is not something that Mrs. Ruan can finalize with a good look, it is better for Mrs. Ruan to be cautious because she is backed by the Earl of Yong'an's mansion.

Lin Ningsu, who had been silent, came to Lin Yan's side and asked, "Brother's trip, is it going well?" ”

The girl's voice was crisp, and it was particularly prominent in the slightly bustling front hall, and everyone's attention shifted from Meng Huan to Lin Yan.

"Everything's fine."

Lin Yan and Meng Huan were both leading troops for the first time, and it was smooth sailing to solve the bandit army outside the city in three or two days.

The old lady saw Lin Yan, looked at it for a moment, and then said: "Lin Dagongzi is also a talent, but I have seen your father, but he doesn't have such a good appearance." ”

Before she went to the frontier with her husband, Ruan's old residence in Jingshi was close to the Lin family, and it was not an exaggeration to say that she had grown up watching Lin Sheng, so her words were not embellished.

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention. Lin Ningsu observed Meng Huan quietly, trying to find some flaws in this person's face, but the result was nothing....

The day before yesterday, none of the people who invited to sing music to the girls could pretend.

As soon as the face and skin were mentioned, the minds of the girls behind the screen came alive, and they all wanted to come out to find out.

"The old lady praises it." Lin Yan replied.

Second Lady Ruan glanced at her and sneered, "This group of unpromising girls...."

"Anyway, His Royal Highness and Grand Prince Lin are both gentle and good-natured people. Come out, all of you. ”

The girls in Ruan's house, whether they were relatives or cousins, walked out as if they had been pardoned, as well as the pair of twins of Second Mrs. Ruan.

There are few rules in Cangzhou, but Meng Huan is very comfortable, and soon chatted with these little boys and girls, all of which are some sour poems that Lin Ningsu can't understand.

It's Lin Yan, who seems to have a gentle smile, but he is cold and makes people dare not approach lightly. provoked the girls to only dare to look at it, but they didn't dare to come forward to talk.

Second Mrs. Ruan naturally wants to choose a good husband for her daughter, she has heard of this Lin Gongzi's talent in Cangzhou, and now she is even more rare to see this appearance.

"What the old lady just said was the truth, the prime minister looked thoughtful, but he was a little less refined. It's you two brothers and sisters, you really are like people cast by jade walls. Second Lady Ruan praised.

She said regretfully: "Two days ago, I heard that Ning Su was looking for a jade bracelet to marry, but my two unsuccessful sons didn't think about tea and dinner, and they didn't have a chance after all. ”

Hearing this, Lin Yan raised his eyes to look at Second Mrs. Ruan, and his tone was flat: "My sister has not yet decided to marry." ”

Lin Ningsu originally wanted the old lady to notice Lin Yan and hide it, not to mix with these boring entertainments. Now these words are directly focused on themselves....

"I...."She just wanted to explain something, but she touched Lin Yan's implied warning eyes, and subconsciously held back.

It's not that she coaxed her, but there was a time when her father was busy when she was a child, and her mother was diligent in her work, so her schoolwork was thrown to Lin Yan.

Every time she can't write a decent article, she gets such a look. After that, she will be punished for copying books....

It's really not something worth remembering, but she remembers it very clearly. The bits and pieces that she didn't care about before, but they are things that are difficult to get after she shows her heart.

Lin Ningsu didn't continue to explain, she thought to herself that Lin Yan might be worried that the lack of matchmaking gifts would damage the reputation of the two of them.

Second Lady Ruan smiled awkwardly: "Yes, Ning Su is still young, so don't worry." ”

With such an attitude, Second Mrs. Ruan was not good at mentioning Lin Yan's marriage, so she had to give up.

It was getting late, and it was impossible to set off for Bingzhou overnight, so after several people discussed, they decided to rest in Ruan's house for one night.

Lin Ningsu is still the original yard, but it just so happens that Lin Yan lives close to her, so the two of them came back together.

"Brother, you must be careful of Meng Huan." Lin Ningsu added, "I see that he is interested in Miss Ruan..."

The footsteps of the person behind him became shallower and shallower, and without answering, Lin Ningsu turned around.

Lin Yan's complexion was much paler than in the front hall, the kind of bloodless and destitute color. His gait slowed down, and he was thrown a dozen feet by himself.

"Lin Yan!" Lin Ningsu let go of the lantern in his hand and grabbed the man's arm.

In a hurry, she did not call her "brother". Under the moonlight, the girl's expression was anxious, and her eyes were full of worry and concern.

Lin Yan was covered in cold and pain, and his bones followed the marrow, which made people feel angry. He quietly curled the corners of his lips and put on his usual warm mask: "What? ”

Lin Ningsu looked at the moon with only a silver hook left in the sky, and said secretly. Lin Yan hasn't taken the medicine this month.

If you eat it, you will die, and if you don't eat it, you will die.

It is estimated that the medicine is still with his father, but he is now far away in the state. Meng Huan may not have it, but he can't....

Anxious, Lin Ningsu had a flash of inspiration and said, "I'll call Miss Ruan!" ”

She hadn't even taken a few steps before she was fished back.

"Not necessarily."
