Originally, he thought that Ruan Qi's daughter was the easiest person to win over because of her young age, but she didn't expect that it was just the opposite. The little girl was soft and hard, and her identity was there, which made Gu Ling'an feel unable to do anything.
Glancing at Ruan Mianmian, Gu Ling'an was puzzled. The way the mother and daughter got along was very different from ordinary people. Is it because the mother was too doting and accommodating, or was it because the baby had something special?
"Miss Gu." Ruan Mianmian called. Seeing that Gu Ling'an was distracted, she raised her voice and called again, "Miss Gu."
"Oh." Gu Ling'an came back to his senses, "What's the matter?"
"Just bring a maid with you when you come over. It seems that there aren't many people to serve in Lanyuan. How about my mother giving you two more maids?"
"No need, that's enough, that's enough." Gu Ling'an refused immediately. She was not stupid if she wanted to arrange an informant around her openly.
Although Zhou Yunning felt that Ruan Mianmian's sudden suggestion was a bit strange, she took advantage of the situation and said, "If you feel that you are short of manpower later, tell me."
"Even though there aren't many people in Lanyuan, my grandmother pointed them out and they are all very capable." Ruan Mianmian said calmly and calmly.
Gu Ling'an felt something was wrong. She hadn't thought about it that much before. So didn't Mrs. Ruan know everything about Ruan Qi's every move in Lanyuan yesterday?
Ruan Mianmian did not ignore the flash of panic in Gu Ling'an's eyes. People are not afraid of distorted shadows. She really had other thoughts, otherwise why would she feel guilty?
Gu Ling'an was restless, and when he saw the person he wanted to see, Gu Ling'an didn't want to deal with it anymore. After chatting for a few words, he stood up and left.
Zhou Yunning waited for Gu Ling'an to leave and asked doubtfully: "She just said a few words and left. What do you think she is here for?"
Ruan Mianmian sighed secretly, her mother was really slow, but she didn't blame her, the Ruan family's family tradition was monogamy, and they had always been pure. I'm afraid she hadn't thought about that yet.
"Mother, do you think they are just adopted brothers and sisters?" Ruan Mianmian tilted her head and looked at Zhou Yuning, "That girl Gu looked at you with a strange look just now."
Zhou Yunning was shocked in her heart, and her face suddenly turned pale. Thinking more about it, she felt that something was wrong.
Seeing this, Xiaotiao Tuanzi breathed a sigh of relief. Whenever her mother became suspicious, she would definitely find out the clues. There was no need for her to say any more.
Ruan Mianmian was about to change the topic when she caught sight of Ruan Qi hurriedly.
Gu Ling'an probably came to the rescue because he heard the report from his servants and was afraid that the mother and daughter would be in trouble. The corner of Xiaotiao Tuanzi's mouth was sarcastic.
At present, Ruan Mianmian is not sure whether they are in love or Gu Ling'an has something he shouldn't have, but she really doesn't like to see her scumbag father.
"As a guest, you always have to visit the owner. I think in addition to Moli Zhai, she will also go to Fu'an Hall and Lingyun Courtyard." When Ruan Mianmian heard the footsteps, an idea flashed in his mind, and he changed his words.
content.
Zhou Yunning shook her head: "After all, she is young and her parents are in order. It stands to reason that she should go to Fu'an Hall first, Lingyun Court and finally our Yanlong Courtyard.
The footsteps stopped when they reached the door. Ruan Mianmian knew very well that his father, who was very polite, was probably looking for thousands of last resort reasons for Gu Ling'an when he heard Zhou Yuning's words.
"My servant has met the third master." Shuang'er came to the door serving tea.
Ruan Qi, who originally wanted to turn around and leave, had no choice but to step forward.
Ruan Qi, who knew etiquette, was hiding outside the door and eavesdropping? He couldn't help but feel guilty when he saw the confused looks from Yun Ning and Ruan Mianmian last week.
"Sanlang is here, Shuang'er, let's have some tea." Zhou Yuning came to Ruan Qi's rescue.
Shuang'er originally prepared three tea bowls, but Gu Ling'an left and Ruan Qi came, serving them just right.
After taking a few sips of tea to cover it up, Ruan Qi coughed twice and said, "Did Ling An come just now?"
"Yeah, I just left after sitting for a while. If Sanlang had walked a few steps faster, he might have met him." Zhou Yunning couldn't help but feel cold when she heard Ruan Qi open his mouth and it was Gu Ling'an.
Ruan Qi suddenly didn't realize it and continued to ask: "What did you say to Ling An?"
"Mother didn't say anything." Ruan Mianmian took over, "Miss Gu probably doesn't understand etiquette, so we didn't argue with her."
"Ling An doesn't understand etiquette?" Ruan Qi suddenly raised his voice, "That's nonsense, she knows etiquette best."
Ruan Mianmian felt upset when she heard that Ruan Qi was protecting Gu Ling'an. She handed the tea bowl out and Jiu'er took it and put it on the coffee table.
"People who know the most about etiquette don't have the slightest sense that they are guests when they come to the door, so they randomly come to the door to recognize relatives."
"Acknowledge?" Ruan Qi was stunned and turned to Zhou Yuning, "What's going on?"
How come the father and daughter were so incompatible with each other, Zhou Yuning couldn't help but feel a headache.
Ruan Mianmian just couldn't stand her scumbag father. She said coldly: "You are so shameless that you said you are my 'aunt'. I turned around and asked my grandfather, when did my grandmother have a daughter? Why didn't I know?"
Ruan Qi frowned slightly, Ling An was indeed a little too hasty, let alone her, this little baby has not recognized his biological father so far.
Mrs. Ruan had previously reminded Ruan Qi through Aunt Yun that Gu Ling'an was his savior and his adopted sister.
The meaning of these words is very clear. The Ding'an Marquis Mansion will not accept outsiders easily. So far, Gu Ling'an is only his savior Ruan Qi. This so-called adopted sister has not been recognized by the old Marquis and his wife.
Ruan Qi originally thought he understood Zhou Yunning's temperament, but now he couldn't understand her. Logically speaking, she was careless and soft-hearted, so Ling An should be happy to accept her face-to-face flattery.
Turning her eyes to Ruan Mianmian, Ruan Qi suddenly thought, yes, it must be this little kid, but she had a reasonable basis. If it really caused trouble, she was afraid that Ling An's life in the mansion would not be easy.
Thinking about it, Ruan Qi felt a little ashamed of Gu Ling'an's father, and he couldn't help but glare at Ruan Mianmian.
The little girl noticed that her scumbag father was glaring at her, so she glared back unceremoniously and gave him a provocative smile.
Ruan Qi realized that he wanted to be angry but couldn't, and the look on his face became increasingly ugly.
Zhou Yunning couldn't tell how many moves the father and daughter had passed, but she knew Ruan Qi and Ruan Mianmian, and she could guess a bit from their expressions.
"Mother, I'm going to Fu'an Hall to pay my respects to my grandfather and grandmother." In front of Zhou Yunning and having the upper hand, Ruan Mianmian accepted her request to avoid embarrassment for her mother.
After the words fell, Ruan Mianmian stood up, bowed slightly and then left with Jiu'er.
"Look, I'm right, I don't know etiquette."
"Sanlang, the emperor has a decree that Mian Mian Mian Sheng is not allowed to kneel."
Ruan Qiqian stared and was speechless. If Ruan Mianmian didn't have to kneel in front of the emperor, who else in the world would make her kneel, even a father like him wouldn't dare.
Ruan Mianmian, who disappeared from the door, had a sneer on her lips. She had heard their conversation, and the scumbag father was targeting her deliberately.
Fortunately, he was not the original owner, so he didn't feel any sadness or anything like that. Forget it, Xiao Naituanzi didn't care about Ruan Qi for Zhou Yuning's sake.
