Chapter 244: The Lobbyist
Zhong Liyou sighed lightly and said, "It's all this time, what kind of bean paste buns are you looking for! Do you know that you almost froze to death? Now that the meridians around your body have been damaged, it's not certain when you can raise them!"
Looking at the sleeping little man next to the pillow, Ruan Zhinan smiled slightly and said, "Young farmer, that bean paste bun is really important to me......
"I really can't help you!" After saying this, Zhong Liyou took the bean paste bag from the table and put it on his bedside, "You have been holding this thing tightly in your hand, and it is expected that your suffering will be inseparable from this little bean paste bag...... I'm glad I didn't throw it away for you. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoβ
Ruan Zhinan put his heart into his stomach at this time.
After tucking the corners of the quilt for him, Zhong Liyou patted his forehead very kindly, "You are really weak now, what you need most is to recuperate." I will take the time to personally go to the Golden Sword Sect to pay homage to the head of Ruan, you just have to rest here with me, and you can tell me something. β
"There is a young farmer. Ruan Zhinan looked at him gratefully, "I can't move now, please trouble the young owner to help me find a bed quilt to cover Meng'er." β
Zhong Liyou originally planned to take Yun Qiumeng to sleep in other guest rooms, but after thinking about it carefully, it was indeed better to let her stay by Ruan Zhi's side.
A mouth is your name, a chat is your story, a closed eye is what you look like, and a door opens you are by my side.
After placing Yun Qiumeng's body flat on Ruan Zhinan's side, Zhong Liyou smiled and said, "From early morning to now, this little girl has been here to take care of you. When I knew that you might not wake up, the tears never stopped. Although she is a little willful, she treats you with deep affection...... She even prayed to heaven that she was willing to endure all the wind and snow as long as you could wake up. β
"Since you know each other, you will live up to it. β
After saying this, Ruan Zhinan closed his eyes with satisfaction and fell into a deep sleep, because he knew that Yun Qiumeng was by his side.
"The concubine is the water, and the king is the mountain. The water is agile and the mountains are calm. The water flows around the mountain, never moving, and the concubine and the king will never leave. β
After hearing the sound of Yun Qiumeng's poems, Ruan Zhinan opened his eyes again, but it was already early in the morning. Yun Qiumeng sat cross-legged beside him like an elf, thinking about something with his chin in his hand, looking very focused.
The warm sunlight shone on her face, making her even more delicate and lovely, and Ruan Zhinan smirked at her, "...... Meng'er, don't you be angry with me!"
Hearing his voice, Yun Qiumeng came back to his senses and hurriedly helped him up, "Are you feeling better?
Ruan Zhinan smiled honestly: "You ask so many questions at once, I don't know which one to answer." β
Yun Qiumeng slowly got out of bed, his expression a little sad, "It's really embarrassing for you to be caught between me and your father, but I don't know how to please him...... In his heart, he has already decided that the halberd is your good match, and what I do is in vain. β
Ruan Zhinan beckoned to her, "Can you come over for a while?" β
When Yun Qiumeng walked over with a resentful face, Ruan Zhinan handed over the still soft bean paste bag, "I don't think about anything now, no matter what you think of my father, I don't care what he thinks of you...... All I care about is you in my heart. β
Just like holding a newborn chick, Yun Qiumeng carefully held the bean paste bun in the palm of his hand, "I went to many stores yesterday and was told that all of them were sold out, where did you get it?"
Ruan Zhinan said: "I went to a neighboring village to buy it, but unfortunately there is only one...... After a night of shelf, I don't know if I can eat it. β
As soon as he heard this, Yun Qiumeng's heart "chuckled" suddenly, and his face immediately showed a look of fear, "Neighboring village!? Yesterday the wind and snow were so big, even the night owl Ji was unwilling to take me there, you, you ...... No wonder your shoes are frozen. You don't have to think about it to know that this journey has been full of hardships and twists and turns, right?"
Ruan Zhinan held her hand and said silently: "For you, I am willing to do whatever I want! Not to mention snow, even thunderbolt bombs can't stop my steps." β
The teary-eyed Yun Qiumeng picked up the bean paste bag and took a bite hard, "You are such a fool, why do you have to please me like this! Treat me like this, what should I do if I bully you in the future?" Is it worth it?"
Looking at those black and white eyes, Ruan Zhinan replied seriously: "At the beginning, I didn't know if it was worth it, and I thought about giving up more than once when the cold wind whipped on my body...... But no one can tell me whether such attachment is right or wrong.
But now, I can sit with you and watch you eat so closely...... Those don't matter anymore......"
Unconsciously, Yun Qiumeng quietly slipped two tears.
"Don't cry...... Ruan Zhinan took the opportunity to take her into his arms, "I don't need you to please anyone for me, including my father." In the past, when you were the daughter of Yunfu, you must not have suffered such grievances! You are the person I like, not an item...... You have your own ideas, you have your way of life...... If it's just because there's one more me in your world, you're going to be deducted from the four words...... So what's the use of you following me?
I took you to my home, I wanted you to live better than before, but it backfired, and you suffered from my father's troubles everywhere. I naively thought that my dad would love the house and the ...... It seems that I was really wrong. When I get well, I will go home and have a showdown with my father, you will not marry in this life! Whether he wants it or not, I will carry it to the end this time. β
"Zhinan......" Yun Qiumeng tightly wrapped his hand around his waist, tears mixed with laughter.
All this was heard clearly by Zhong Liyou outside the door, "Let me help you pair of hard-working mandarin ducks!"
After the second general of civil and military affairs who gave him prepared some gifts, the three masters and servants took a carriage to the Golden Sword Sect. Hearing that Zhong Liyou was here, Ruan Xin immediately put down the affairs in his hand and went out to greet him in person, "The presence of the young owner really makes the humble house shine! β
After leading Zhong Liyou into the house, Ruan Xin's mouth was not idle, either instructing people to make tea and serving fruits, or chattering about Zhong Liyou's talent and wisdom.
After patiently listening to what Ruan Xin said, Zhong Li Youcai slowly spoke: "My nephew came here for two purposes! First, the New Year is approaching, and You'er was ordered by his father to send some New Year's goods to Uncle Ruan.
This second thing is related to Zhinan, Uncle Ruan may not know that Ling Lang almost died in Huangquan yesterday......"
Zhong Liyou deliberately accentuated the tone of his speech, and Ruan Xin's heart was beating when he heard it, his face was extremely distorted, and his words revealed panic everywhere, "Zhinan...... My child, what's wrong with him? Where is he? Is he missing an arm or a leg?"
After saying this in one breath, Ruan Xin almost fainted, "Our Zhinan is a good boy! He has been obedient and sensible since he was a child, and he has no enemies in the martial arts, who wants to harm him like this?"
Zhong Liyou hurriedly helped Ruan Xin to the chair, "Uncle Ruan, don't be anxious, Zhinan's body is very intact, and not a single hair is missing." As you said, Zhinan has no enemies in the martial arts, and no one wants to harm him...... It was he who almost tossed himself to death. β
After Ruan Xin's repeated inquiries, Zhong Liyou explained everything and then added: "Uncle Ruan taught well, it is really rare to find a good man like Zhinan, even You'er is ashamed of himself. β
Someone praised his son, of course, the father was happy in his heart, "The young owner has won the award, although our Zhinan is affectionate and righteous, but he is a tendon...... The halberd with the childhood sweetheart doesn't like it, but he has a deep love for the girl of the Yun family. β
At this point, Ruan Xin actually added a tone of hatred for iron and steel, "I never imagined that he would ...... just to buy a bean paste bag for the girl of the Yun family Alas, if he had three longs and two shorts, I wouldn't be alive!"
Zhong Liyou hurriedly relieved: "Uncle Ruan and Zhinan's father and son have a deep relationship, which makes You'er very moved! But before I came here to pay my respects to you, You'er was also moved by the heartfelt words of a young couple. Although it is not a mountain, sea and mountain alliance, Zhinan's affectionate eyes are really incomprehensible, such a good marriage...... No one can bear to tear it apart!"
Seeing that Ruan Xin was a little moved, Zhong Liyou took the opportunity to say a bunch of good things for Yun Qiumeng, "When Zhinan was sick in bed, that little girl took care of him for a whole day and a night regardless of the suspicion of men and women, if it wasn't sincere, who girl would be willing to pay like this?"
Uncle Ruan knows that there is a saying that a twisted melon is not sweet! You value Zhinan's life several times more than your own, why do you ignore his happiness? Can't you see that Zhinan is the happiest only when he is with Meng'er?
If you love your child so much, why do you always force your thoughts on him? Even if he really marries the third lady of the Jiang family according to your wishes, will he really be able to live a comfortable life for the rest of his life? Uncle Ruan doesn't want to watch his child depressed for life!
This time, he was lucky enough to pick up a life, and no one dared to guarantee it next time! If Uncle Ruan really did it for the good of Zhinan, he would have fulfilled the bitter life of this pair of mandarin ducks who truly loved each other! If there is any accident in the future of the province, you will regret it for the rest of your life!"
Listening to Zhong Liyou's endless talk about this big pile, Ruan Xin fell into deep thought. Recalling the bits and pieces of Ruan Zhinan from childhood to adulthood, tears gradually filled his eyes.
Since Ruan Zhinan was sensible, he has always imprinted the tradition of putting filial piety first in his mind, rarely disobeyed Ruan Xin, and when he grew up, he cared for his father and was filial piety.
If it weren't for the fact that he had repeatedly embarrassed Yun Qiumeng by listening to the words of the Jiang brothers and sisters, why would Ruan Zhinan have come to this point? Thinking about it carefully, Yun Qiumeng had not done anything out of the ordinary, but he was just prejudiced against her.
