Before he entered the house, he heard Lan Xi's low voice and the old lady's hearty laughter. Liuyun curled his lips and smiled, and walked slowly in. The first thing that caught his eye was Shen Yi's smiling face. With an expression on her face, Lan Xi paused, but the old lady smiled as always.
"Why is grandma so happy?" Liu Yun walked over in three steps, not even looking at Shen Yi and Lan Xi who were standing aside. He sat on the stool beside the bed and looked at Mu happily. The old lady smiled innocently.
"Girl Xi told some interesting things to make me, an old woman, happy." The old lady smiled again, her eyes fell on Liu Yun's pretty cheeks, and she said with a half-smile, "Our girl Yun is getting more and more beautiful. "
After saying that, he glanced at Shen Yi with meaning, and a pair of eyes were fixed on Liu Yun. The old lady was even more happy when she saw such a scene, smiling from ear to ear.
"Grandma is partial, Lan Xi coaxed her for a long time before she smiled. Grandma was so happy when the eldest sister came." Lan Xi pretended to be unhappy and pouted coquettishly, her watery eyes showing the coquettishness of a little daughter.
Hearing this, Liu Yun just raised his eyebrows and smiled, with calm eyes, looking at the old lady with concern, "Is grandma feeling better? We were all frightened yesterday. Aunt Bai Su said that grandma was in a coma. Wake up, dad is extremely worried."
"It's nothing serious." The old lady waved her hands as if she didn't care.
"It's okay. Grandma wants to try the snacks brought by her granddaughter, but she asked Qianlan to get up early in the morning to prepare them, and they are still hot." Liu Yun finally brought a small plate in the late Qing Dynasty. There were several small snacks in the delicate small disk. The small crystal dumplings, with their translucent thin skin and tender shrimp meat inside, immediately increase your appetite.
"Yun girl still understands my heart as an old woman. Bai Su brought the soup early in the morning, and my mouth was really bitter after eating it. I couldn't eat anything. Now when I look at this crystal dumpling, I realize that I am a little hungry." The old lady took it. Using the plate and chopsticks, he tasted it carefully and nodded, "Well, it's smooth but not greasy. A lot of work has gone into the filling of this dumpling. It has a sweet and sour taste, which is completely different from the usual shrimp dumplings. "
Seeing that the old lady was eating happily, Liuyun also smiled lightly, "This was also what Qianlan suggested. She said that after grandma wakes up, she will have to take extremely bitter medicine, which will definitely make her mouth full of bitterness, and I'm afraid she won't have any appetite to eat. But this shrimp dumpling is different. It’s sour, sweet, appetizing, and nutritious. Grandma will definitely like it.”
"Well, it's really good." The old lady ate with gusto and praised Qianlan's craftsmanship. Suddenly something occurred to her, "By the way, speaking of this, your Aunt Lin also told me about the two people around you a few days ago. These girls have reached the age of marriage, and they have been serving you for many days. Our Mu family cannot treat them badly. She seems to have said that she wants to find a suitable marriage for them."
Liuyun's face changed slightly, and he held his hands hidden in his sleeves tightly, and was able to control his furious emotions. What a Lin, she really had her mind set on Wan Qing and Qianlan. She probably still has it to this day. I think the eldest lady's change was probably due to the entanglement of the two girls around her, so she decided to send them away.
"Why do we need to get married? The late Qing Dynasty said that I would always stay with my granddaughter, and Qianlan also said that I would always stay by my granddaughter's side. When my mother passed away, they swore an oath in front of her grave." The wayward elder The young lady's temper comes out at will, without any ambiguity or hesitation.
Mrs. Mu didn't expect Liu Yun to express her rejection so directly. She was slightly startled and looked at Liu Yun frowning.
"Miss..." Wan Qing hurriedly stepped forward and tugged on Liuyun's sleeves, signaling her not to talk nonsense. The old lady was not the Lin family, so she would not let her act nonsense, not to mention that the old lady was from the Mu Mansion.
The person in power, and she and Qianlan are just two maids sold into slavery, she naturally has the power to deal with them, let alone marry them, even if they are re-sold and sold, they are helpless.
"No matter, there are only two of them left. Grandma, just pamper your granddaughter and don't let them leave, okay?" Liu Yun approached Mrs. Mu, and her bright eyes became slightly moist, like
She felt very sad thinking about her mother's death, but she still looked at the old lady stubbornly and asked her to agree.
Seeing her pitiful little appearance, the old lady naturally felt soft-hearted. She just said it casually, but she didn't expect Liuyun's reaction to be so big.
However, there was one person who was faster than the old lady. Lan Xi's warm voice rang out, "Eldest sister is confused. Wan Qing and Qianlan will naturally marry someone when they reach the age of marriage. How can they stay with eldest sister for the rest of their lives?"
Where is the side? Besides, even if they get married, they are probably the servants in the ration house, so aren't they still staying with the eldest sister? "
"I'm talking to grandma, so why is it your turn to speak as a concubine?" Liu Yun frowned and glared at Lan Xi. She, the eldest daughter, has always been so domineering, and she had quite a bit of criticism towards Lan Xi, like her.
She was always jealous of this gentle, lovely and talented woman, and she usually didn't bother to argue with her for Aunt Lin's sake, but she didn't expect that she would actually say these things in front of so many people today. Liu Yun naturally
It won't make her feel better.
Of course, the most important thing is that Shen Yi has not yet left, and Liu Yun humiliated Lan Xi in public. It is expected that Shen Yi, with his gentlemanly demeanor and pity for the weak, should stand up and speak for Lan Xi, right?
"Sister..." Lan Xi's eyes immediately turned red after being humiliated in front of her. She looked up at her grandmother with grievance, and then at Shen Yi, who was standing silently aside. Seeing his barely visible frown, she
He immediately lowered his head.
"It's really unruly. You can go down, I will take care of my grandmother here." Liu Yun curled his lips, showing a bit of disdain for Lan Xi.
"Grandma..." Lan Xi opened her mouth, tears welling up in her eyes. She looked so pitiful. Of course she didn't dare to challenge Liu Yun in person. The difference between concubine and concubine was most obvious in a wealthy family.
.
Unexpectedly, the old lady didn't seem to feel her grievance at all. She just waved her hand nonchalantly and said, "Girl Xi, you go back and rest first. I wish I could have Girl Yun with me."
Lan Xi pursed her lips suddenly, and a fierce light flashed in her eyes, but she quickly covered it up. She had no choice but to say, "Grandma, have a good rest. Lan Xi is going back first, and I will see you later."
Mrs. Mu didn't even raise her eyebrows, and gave a vague hum. When Lan Xi saw this, she had to leave bitterly, but she heard the old lady's smiling voice outside the door, "I like the straightforwardness of Girl Yun."
Jin, Shen Yi, you have to take good care of this little girl for me, otherwise my old lady won't obey you."
"Don't worry, madam, Shen will take care of it." Then came someone's plain but serious reply.
Lan Xi felt a chill all over her body, and her fingers trembled slightly. This was the man she liked, the man she had chosen, and it would never be easy for anyone to take him away.
