"Miss, you are finally back. I thought you didn't want us anymore." Taozi looked at Bai Ranran pitifully, like an abandoned little puppy.
"How could it be possible? I just feel lazy and don't want to go out recently." Bai Ranran touched Taozi's little face with a gentle smile.
"Miss, how have you been recently? Why are you back?" Qingcheng felt that Bai Lianran seemed unhappy and was a little worried.
Yu Can stood aside and looked at Bai Liran, "I'm going to prepare cakes for the lady."
After she finished speaking, she ran out of the room and went to make food for Bai Yilan.
Before Bai Liran could call her, she had already ran out of the yard.
"I've been doing well recently, but I just missed you, so I came back to stay for a few days."
Bai Lanran patted Qingcheng's butt with a smile on her lips.
Although it is difficult to convey real feelings, it feels good to be remembered.
"Then I'll make the bed for the young lady." Taozi heard that Bai Linran was going to stay here for a few days, so she went to make the bed for her anxiously.
After the house in the south of the city was burned down by a fire and they moved here, Bai Liran stayed here for a few days while Mr. Jiang held a funeral, and then never came back.
She didn't want to come over. Subconsciously, China always felt that Jiang was still living here, but she knew clearly in her heart that she was no longer here, so she had an escape mentality.
The housekeeper that Mo Shaohua had arranged before was still here. When he heard the concierge say that Bai Lianran was here, he hurried over to see her and asked her what her orders were.
Bai Liran didn't have anything to do, so she asked the housekeeper to arrange a place for Qian Lan.
Yun Shu didn't need to make arrangements with the housekeeper, so it was more convenient to live directly in her side room.
In the hurry when she came out, she forgot to bring the snow dumplings over, so she asked the housekeeper to ask someone to go to Ning Prince's Mansion to pick up the snow dumplings.
Xuetuan couldn't stay in the room during the day and always liked to run out to play. When she left, she didn't see her and forgot about it.
I'm used to Xue Tuan's company, but I feel a little uncomfortable after not seeing him for a while.
She was not familiar with this place, so she sent the housekeeper away and asked Qingcheng to take her and Yun Shu for a walk.
Looking at this strange place, she felt a little confused.
She hasn't decided yet how to deal with her relationship with Mo Shaohua, and she doesn't know whether it is right or wrong to bring Qian Lan out.
Based on her understanding of Mo Shaohua, even if she ran away, Mo Shaohua would not really hurt Qian Lan. At most, he would threaten her to come back.
But I can't be so sure, what if I really made Mo Shaohua anxious?
What was he going to do with her?
Mo Shaohua didn't mention a word about the marriage granted by the imperial decree. Bai Liran was angry and wanted to see if he remembered his promise to her, so she was calm on the surface and maintained a stalemate behind her back.
In fact, she also knew that this was not how things were handled, but no one was in the mood yet.
Forget it, leave it alone for now.
This house is much larger than the one in the south of the city. It is divided into east, west, south and north gardens, and is as big as the five over there.
There are gardens at the front and back of the house. There are no flowers in the garden, but it is full of maple trees.
It is still early spring, the weather is a little cool, and the maple trees have only sprouted some new buds, but the leaves have not grown yet.
Bai Lanran was walking around the house while talking to Qingcheng, "Does Brother Yan Chu come back every day?"
"Yes, Mr. Bai comes back to live every day. He lives in Beiyuan, and Dongyuan is the courtyard reserved for the young lady."
Qingcheng knew that Bai Lianran was not familiar with this place, so she told Bai Lianran everything she knew.
Bai Liran was away, so she and Tao Zi Yucan were living in the servant's room in the backyard. Uncle Wu and Sandun were still in the concierge, but the housekeeper arranged for two more people to work shifts in the concierge.
She, Taozi and Yucan clean the room on weekdays and don't have any heavy work to do.
"Um."
Bai Lanran didn't ask Bai Zixu any more about it. She stared at the newly sprouted maple tree in front of her for a while, then turned and walked east, "Is Dongyuan in this direction?"
Seeing that she was going back, Qingcheng hurriedly stepped forward to lead the way, "Well, Tao Zi should have been packed away. I'll take Miss Yun Shu there."
As she walked, she asked Bai Ranran, "What would you like to eat tonight? I'll make it for you later."
Bai Ranran thought for a while, then frowned and said, "Sweet and sour fish, fried tenderloin, crispy pork, and the rest, you can make whatever you want."
Qingcheng's short crispy pork was very well made. She hadn't eaten it for a long time, but she really missed it.
"Well, the kitchen just bought some fish today, so I'll take the lady over and cook it."
Qingcheng likes to cook for Bai Linran the most. When she hears that she wants to eat, she feels full of satisfaction.
Tao Zi has already made the bed, and the courtyard is cleaned every day. There are also many flowers planted in the corners, but they have not bloomed yet.
After Qingcheng sent Bai Linran back, she hurried to make dinner for her.
As the sun set, Bai Liran asked Taozi to bring a chair out and place it under the crabapple tree in the courtyard.
She sat down under the crabapple tree and looked at the sun that had set in the west. The sunlight was still dazzling and she squinted her eyes slightly.
Taozi carefully moved to Yun Shu, who was leaning against the tree, and asked her in a low voice: "Did the lady have a quarrel with His Highness Prince Ning?"
Ever since Bai Linran came back, she had been keenly aware that she was unhappy.
She doesn't seem to have any problems on the surface, but she makes people feel a little dull and not as playful and laughing as before.
Yun Shu didn't answer. He looked at Bai Ranran quietly and murmured in a low voice: "It would be nice if we really quarreled."
If it was just a quarrel, her master would have chased her and begged the princess to go back, and he would not have let her watch the sun here.
"Ah?" Taozi didn't understand Yun Shu's words, "It's not a quarrel. It's fine if it's not a quarrel."
Yun Shu didn't speak, and Bai Liran pretended not to hear what they said.
Seeing that the two of them were silent, Taozi asked Yun Shu, "Which room will Miss Yun Shu stay in at night? Or is it next door to Miss Yun Shu? I'll make the bed."
"Let's go?" Bai Lianran then spoke.
She leaned lazily on the chair, feeling that the wood was a little rough. She turned to look at Yun Shu and said, "Please bring me a cushion."
Yun Shu responded and went to the room to get a cushion. He held her shoulder with one hand. She moved forward and asked Yun Shu to put the cushion behind her.
Yun Shu stood over, folded his arms and leaned against the crabapple tree beside him, frowning, "Do you want to abandon your master and run away?"
Bai Ranran lazily turned to look at her, chuckled, and suddenly started counting, "One, two, three, four, five, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, I should have twelve secret guards in Dongyuan, what do you think?"
What are the chances of a successful escape?"
Before she could decide whether to run or not, Mo Shaohua cut off her path.
She knows a few self-defense martial arts, and the silver needle is pretty good, but while she's pregnant, it's really difficult to deal with a dozen secret guards.
However, whether these people were here to protect her or prevent her from escaping, she was not ready to run away yet.
Yun Shu fell silent.
As a woman, she took on her own role and was not willing for Yueying to marry another woman.
Although Yueying was not hers yet, just thinking about it made her irritated and she had the urge to cut him into pieces again.
Looking at Bai Lanran like this, he is much calmer than her.
"What are you going to do?" Yun Shu didn't like to see her sad face, "Why don't you talk to the master, maybe he has other ideas."
