Chapter 228 What is it?
"Axiang." Luo Qingli couldn't hide her excitement and walked forward, holding a little boy in her hand.
The little boy's dark eyes blinked, "Auntie."
"Is this An An?" Ruan Ningxiang touched the little boy's head, "An An has already grown so tall."
"It's not that good. In the blink of an eye, we haven't seen each other for more than three years." Zhao Jingran also walked over, "An An is already seven years old."
Zhao Jingran was dressed in fine moon-white clothes, holding a folding fan in his hand, and with a smile like spring breeze on his face, he was still the same elegant and elegant young man.
Ruan Ningxiang couldn't hold back her excited tears, "Why are you here suddenly?"
"My uncle knew that you were going back to Beijing, so he sent a letter asking us to come over. We just arrived today," Luo Qingli said.
"Tzuyu, why didn't you tell me anything?" Ruan Ningxiang said angrily.
Chu Yu handed over a handkerchief, "I thought you must be really homesick, so since you can't go back, I called them over."
"Now that the southern border is peaceful, Sister Luo and I have decided to settle down here." The corners of Zhao Jingran's eyes were also a little red.
"Are you two together?" Ruan Ningxiang wiped her tears and raised her head in surprise.
"What are you talking about?" Luo Qingli tugged on Ruan Ningxiang's arm, "Aran means that we won't go back to Yundu Mountain for the time being."
"Haha, I haven't seen you in a few years. Not only has Axiang grown up, but she has also learned to be a matchmaker, and has become a bit crazy." Zhao Jingran joked, "However, I heard that Xiuer and Song Ji gave birth to a boy.
How many years have passed, and I heard that Ayue is also getting married."
"Xiu'er is pregnant with her second child, and she will probably give birth soon." Ruan Ningxiang said, "What about you?"
Zhao Jingran changed the topic, "Don't stand under the sun, go inside, eat and talk slowly."
Luo Qingli tried to discredit him, "He has been single for so many years. I don't know what kind of girl can catch our eye, Aran."
"Yundu Mountain is so big, and there are only so many girls." Zhao Jingran poured wine for everyone, "But it's different now. Now that I'm under the emperor's feet, I don't have girls all over the street for me to choose from."
"Just don't think of yourself as an old bachelor." Ruan Ningxiang joked.
"You look down on me so much. If you look down on me for less than half a year, I will bring you a sister-in-law." Zhao Jingran was about to pour wine for Ruan Ningxiang, but Chu Yu took the cup.
"She still has a public job, so she can't drink. Just drink sour plum soup." Chu Yu said.
Ruan Ningxiang whispered: "I'll be fine this afternoon."
"You can't drink it if you have nothing to do." Chu Yu forcefully poured her a cup of sour plum soup.
Luo Qingli and Zhao Jingran looked at each other, and Luo Qingli said: "Axiang, you are a general now, and you really need to restrain your behavior."
Just a glass of wine.
If you don’t want to drink it, don’t drink it. Ruan Ningxiang picked up the sour plum soup.
Several people were at the dinner table, chatting a lot.
We talked about Ruan Ningxiang's stay in the South China Sea, her arrival in Northern Xinjiang, and how she attacked Tianyu.
While chatting, Ruan Ningxiang deliberately turned the topic to Qi Haolin.
Praise him for how powerful he is, how he lurks into the enemy camp alone to poison, and how he lures the enemy deep into the enemy camp.
Qi Haolin's status makes it difficult for him to return to Beijing. He is currently staying in Northern Xinjiang with Xiao Wu and the others, and he doesn't know when he will be able to return.
Ruan Ningxiang asked Xu Huixin again in disguise, but Luo Qingli paused in her words.
"What's wrong?" Ruan Ningxiang was sensitive to the fact that something happened.
Luo Qingli was silent.
Zhao Jingran drank a glass of wine, held the glass, and gritted his teeth, "That Xu Huixin actually seduced Qi Haolin while he was drunk. Qi Haolin married her in order to be responsible.
Until a few months later, Qi Haolin received a letter from his uncle. In the letter, Huixin heard that his father was released from prison, so she abandoned Qi Haolin and left Yundu Mountain alone.
Qi Haolin went to Northern Xinjiang in anger, and we lost track of Xu Huixin's whereabouts."
"How could this happen?" Ruan Ningxiang did not expect that Xu Huixin would abandon Qi Haolin.
Ruan Ningxiang glanced at Luo Qingli distressedly.
After not seeing each other for several years, Luo Qingli was obviously very haggard.
Luo Qingli smiled, "You don't have to look at me like that. I'm almost thirty. I've already looked away from love. I just want An An."
Luo Qingli and the others had been traveling for a month and were tired from traveling, so Ruan Ningxiang didn't bother them too much. After dinner, they sat for a while and then took the carriage back to the city.
Xinbao Street, Baoyue Building, Tianzihao Room.
Liu Wanting was dressed in a soft lavender suit, with pearls and jasper in her temples. She sat there with a brocade sachet in her hand and waited for most of the day.
Wormwood lingered outside for a long time before she plucked up the courage to knock on the door.
Liu Wanting opened the door and said calmly, "You're here."
"Yeah." Ai Cao stood at the door, "I heard that Miss Liu is looking for me."
"Can we come into the room to talk?" Liu Wanting asked.
Wormwood walked in.
Liu Wanting closed the door again and said, "Sit down."
Ai Cao sat down, behaved and upright, "What do you want from me?"
Liu Wanting stared at the thin and handsome man in front of her.
This man told her at first that he was a bandit because he caught a glimpse of her beauty, followed her secretly, and was lucky enough to save her.
That day, when she unexpectedly learned that Luo Bai was an eunuch at the Zhao'an County Lord's Palace, she was really angry and couldn't believe it.
Looking for a slim hope from Yunzhou, she chased him to the capital, hoping to repay her life-saving grace with her life.
As a result, the truth is this.
But after calming down, Liu Wanting understood his helplessness and she didn't blame him.
She owed this man a long-lost thank you.
Now, it’s time to wake up from the dream I’ve had for several years.
Liu Wanting said: "I specially want to say thank you to you for saving me back then."
Ai Cao's voice was hoarse and low, "It's my duty, Miss Liu, you don't need to thank me."
"This is for you." Liu Wanting didn't mention that he was an eunuch, and handed the purse in her hand to Ai Cao, who was holding the skirt of her clothes a little shyly. "I see that you have been using the one on your waist for a long time.
I embroidered a new one for you."
"Thank you." Ai Cao looked over, pursed her lips and said, "I heard that you have been living in General Shen's mansion recently. If you are not used to living there, you can go back to Zhao'an County Lord's Mansion."
Liu Wanting was silent for a moment, "No, I live well now."
"Oh." Ai Cao said in a low voice, "If you don't want to live in the Zhao'an County Lord's Mansion, I have some money and can buy a yard and you can move there."
"Luo Bai!" Liu Wanting's eyes were slightly red, "You buy a yard and let me move in there. What do you mean, do you think you are a foster child? Are you treating me like food?"
"No." Ai Cao looked at Liu Wanting's misty tearful eyes and stuttered, but the Shen Mansion was not a good place.
"Please, don't tease me anymore." Liu Wanting's eyes were full of bitter tears.
She finally made up her mind to draw a clear line with this person, and she didn't want to waver again.
Liu Wanting stood up and said, "I've been out for a day and it's time to go back."
