Chapter 82 It turns out that the third brother wants to break off the relationship
The little girl was obviously stunned for a moment before she tentatively asked uncertainly, "Third brother... do you think I'm cute?"
Xiao Wu turned away awkwardly and said lightly, "It's... it's okay."
But I didn’t expect that such an ordinary comment would make the little girl so happy.
"That's great. I thought Third Brother hated me and found me annoying." Li Suining sniffed. In fact, she was almost scared away when she saw Xiao Wu's gloomy face just now. Fortunately, she did not give up.
She didn't dare to pester Xiao Wu anymore, "Third brother, I have to go back now, otherwise mother will be worried."
She looked at Qingyun again, "Brother Qingyun, be careful. When mother comes out, you can push Third Brother over."
"Okay, Miss Seven, don't worry, I understand." Qingyun wiped away her tears and felt that her sect leader was so lucky to have such a good sister like Miss Seven.
His seventh young lady is not a little fox, she is... a little fairy who fell from the sky.
The little dumpling finally winked at Xiao Wu before trotting away.
Qingyun looked at his master, and thinking of what he had just told him, he asked tentatively, "Master, what else should we do..."
"Don't let them meet first!" Xiao Wu originally planned to take the opportunity to let Li Suining and Li Changan meet here, but now, he changed his mind.
"Yes." Qingyun was secretly happy. In his heart, the sect leader had always been the calmest and most ruthless person, but now... he felt that the sect leader seemed a little different.
Li Suining returned to the private room next door and saw Wei Ranzhu going out to look for her.
"Where did you go? Why did you come back just now?" Wei Ranzhu looked worried.
"I'm sorry, mother, I came back late," Li Suining immediately apologized, "I made you worry."
"It's good that you're back, but don't run around alone." Wei Ranzhu smiled and touched the little guy's head, "Eat quickly, or it will get cold soon."
"Yeah." The little dumpling asked curiously while eating, "Mom, is it because I'm too young that you'll worry when I go out alone?"
"Of course not." Wei Ranzhu said earnestly, "Silly child, in my mother's eyes, no matter how old a child is, he is still a child. How can I not worry about you being out there alone?"
Little Tuanzi paused, thinking of Xiao Wu next door, and then deliberately asked, "Mother, then... who are you most worried about? Now that my eldest brother and fourth brother are both out alone, which one do I worry about the most?"
Wei Ranzhu sighed softly, "When it comes to who I'm most worried about, it's not your eldest brother, nor your fourth brother."
"Your eldest brother is in the Eastern Palace. He's calm and stable, so he should be safe. Your fourth brother is in the military camp, but that's the Bai family army after all. He's been with them on marches and battles before, and now he's near the Imperial City, so he's naturally not in any danger..."
At this point, she paused, her expression growing a bit more melancholic. "Actually, what I'm most worried about is... your third brother."
Xiao Wu next door instantly clenched the black fan in his hand.
Wei Ranzhu continued, "Sui Ning, you haven't met your third brother. He is the most beautiful child Mother has ever seen. When he first came to the Marquis' Mansion, he was like... Old Six is as old as he is now, but he was only seven years old back then."
Thinking of the past, a smile appeared on her face. "Back then, his biological father had just passed away. Your father and I were very worried about him, afraid that he would be sad and unable to adapt to the General's Mansion. But I didn't expect... this child to be so sensible. He was always happy in front of us every day, making your eldest and second brothers laugh every day."
Wei Ranzhu suddenly couldn't continue. She wiped her tears and continued, "But I actually know everything. This child always cries secretly by himself. He is afraid that we will worry, so he pretends to be very happy every day."
"Mother," Li Suining leaned forward, her soft little body resting against Wei Ranzhu, "Mother, don't be sad. Third brother will be safe outside. He knows that our parents are worried about him, and he will definitely protect himself."
Wei Ranzhu stroked the little boy's head and said distressedly, "Back then, even though his leg was injured, he was determined to leave the General's Mansion. In fact, your father and I understand that he...he left with the intention of severing ties with his family. He...he would bring trouble to us."
"But as a parent, which one would think that his or her child is a burden?" At this point, Wei Ranzhu was already crying.
"Mother, don't be sad. No, Third Brother will not break off ties with our family," Li Suining hugged Wei Ranzhu tightly. "Mother, I believe Third Brother just has some unfinished business. When he finishes his work, he will definitely come back."
She looked at Wei Ranzhu and thought that her third brother was thinking of breaking off the engagement. She couldn't help but pout and looked like she was about to cry.
"Sui Ning, be good and don't cry. It's mom's fault. I was just talking nonsense." Seeing the little girl like this, Wei Ranzhu quickly controlled her emotions.
She had actually been holding these words in her heart for a long time, and she didn't dare mention them in front of Bai Yunfeng, for she was afraid that her husband would blame himself and feel sad.
Today, she also vented the sadness in her heart.
She gently wiped away the little girl's tears and coaxed her softly, "Sui Ning, be good and don't cry. Mother was just kidding. Your third brother will definitely come back. He hasn't even met our Sui Ning, or Little Eight or Little Nine yet. How could he bear not to come back?"
After a pause, she continued, "Actually, even if he doesn't want to come back, I won't force him to do anything. As long as he can report back home from time to time like now, letting me know that he's safe and sound out there, I'll be content."
"Mom, if Third Brother knew what you were thinking, he would come back one day," Little Dumpling said affirmatively.
"Well, mother believes it too. How could such a filial child be willing to leave such a big family like us?" Wei Ranzhu finally smiled.
The little dumpling ate quietly for a while before saying pitifully, "Mom, I suddenly want to eat candied haws. Can you go downstairs and buy some for me?"
"Miss Qi, you want to eat candied haws. I'll go downstairs and buy some." The nanny said immediately.
"No, Mom, I want to eat the candied haws you bought for me." Little Dumpling said this suddenly when he was rarely willful, which made Wei Ranzhu and the wet nurse stunned.
"Okay, if our Suining wants to eat, mom will go downstairs to buy some." Wei Ranzhu quickly agreed to the child's request. She then asked the wet nurse to take good care of Xiaoba and Xiaojiu, and she got up and left.
Li Suining ran out and saw Wei Ranzhu really coming downstairs, then she looked at the door next door.
Soon, the door of the next room opened, and Qingyun appeared pushing Xiao Wu. However, this time, the eyes of Qingyun and Xiao Wu were a little red, as if they had just... cried?
"Third brother, eighth brother and ninth sister are inside. I'll take you in." Li Suining pretended not to notice anything unusual and immediately pushed the door back to the private room.
