Chapter 222 I Don’t Mind That You Liked Gu Yan
The spring mountain breeze blew, and the flowers on Lin Boyan's head swayed in the wind.
Nuonuo looked at Lin Bolan eagerly, stretched out her little hand and said, "Flower hat."
Lin Bolan heard Nuonuo's babyish voice and chuckled, "Nuonuo wants flowers, right? Auntie will give you this flower hat."
Yun Xiangye was about to refuse, but Zhao Rui spoke up, "This is the flower hat I made for you. If Nuonuo wants me to make one for her, just make one for her."
Zhao Rui walked up to Nuonuo and said, "Wait, uncle will help you weave a little flower hat, don't steal your aunt's."
Xiao Nuonuo nodded obediently and said, "Baby, be good. Baby won't grab it."
Zhao Rui rubbed the little soft face, "So good."
Yun Xiangye looked at Zhao Rui picking flowers in a hurry and couldn't help but smiled and shook her head.
Zhao Rui came back half an hour later. When he came, he was holding two flower hats in his hands, one big and one small.
Zhao Rui handed the large flower hat to Yun Xiangye and said, "Sister-in-law, this flower hat is for you."
Yun Xiangye chuckled and said, "Is there a share for me? Thank you very much..."
Gu Yan stopped Yun Xiangye's hand from taking it, "If you like, I can weave it for you. Is it necessary for him to be so attentive?"
Zhao Rui sneered and said, "Stingy!"
Yun Xiangye smiled faintly and said to Zhao Rui, "Take this flower hat back and give it to your aunt."
Nuonuo put on the little flower hat, turned around several times, and ran to Lin Bolan in a conceited manner and said, "Auntie, does it look good?"
Lin Bolan nodded gently and said, "Nuonuo is the most beautiful."
Lin Bolan looked down at Xiao Nuonuo. Meeting such a well-behaved and lovely child, she began to feel eager to have a daughter as lovely as Nuonuo.
In the afternoon, after playing for half a day, Nuonuo felt sleepy and fell asleep in Gu Yan's arms. Gu Yan was about to carry Nuonuo back home.
But Lin Bolan had only finished half of the painting, so they didn't want to disturb Lin Bolan's interest.
Lin Bolan said: "Let Zhao Rui accompany me. The mountain wind is strong, you should take her down the mountain quickly."
Yun Xiangye said: "Let the nurse take Nuonuo back first."
Since she was the one who brought Lin Bolan out, Yun Xiangye had to see Lin Bolan return to the Lin family with her own eyes.
After Nuonuo left, Gu Yan started painting for Yun Xiangye. Yun Xiangye rarely had this kind of free time, so she let Gu Yan help her paint.
Towards evening, the sky was covered with dark clouds. The sky was clear just a moment ago, but now it suddenly began to rain heavily with big raindrops falling down.
Several people hurried to save the paintings and ran to a wooden pavilion nearby to shelter from the rain.
Yun Xiangye looked at the painting in Gu Yan's hand and asked, "Are you okay?"
Gu Yan said: "It got a little wet, but it's nothing serious."
Lin Bolan looked at the heavy rain outside and said, "It's all my fault. I've been delayed for so long. It's raining so heavily. I don't know when it will stop..."
Yun Xiangye chuckled and said, "It's okay, this summer shower will surely pass soon."
The rain lasted for half an hour before it stopped. After the rain, a circle of seven-color rainbow light was printed under the setting sun, which was extremely beautiful when viewed from the mountain.
Then everyone went down the mountain.
The mountain road was very muddy and difficult to walk on after the heavy rain.
Today, Yun Xiangye and Lin Boyan were both wearing long skirts and embroidered shoes, making it difficult for them to move in the mud.
Gu Yan noticed that Yun Xiangye had difficulty walking, so he said, "Let me carry you."
Yun Xiangye nodded in agreement. She didn't want to get her shoes covered in mud, and she didn't want to be on the mountain until dark.
Seeing Gu Yan carrying Yun Xiangye on his back, Zhao Rui looked at Lin Bolan standing aside, "I'll carry you?"
Lin Bolan said: "I can walk by myself."
Zhao Rui said, "It's not like I haven't carried you before. It's getting dark soon. If you keep walking so slowly, how long will it take to get down the mountain? It would be better if I carry you down the mountain faster."
Lin Bolan thought about it and decided not to refuse. After all, she was very tired after standing and painting for a whole day.
Anyway, no one else saw it here, so Gu Yan and Yun Xiangye would definitely not say anything nonsense.
Zhao Rui carried Lin Bolan on his back. He could feel her breath close to him and couldn't help but slow down his pace.
Seeing Gu Yan walking in front, Lin Bolan said to Zhao Rui, "Why are you walking so slowly?"
Zhao Rui said: "Be careful, this mountain road is too slippery."
Zhao Rui was already struggling to walk halfway up the mountain carrying Lin Bolan on his back. He really didn't know how Gu Yan could carry Yun Xiangye down the mountain so briskly.
Zhao Rui could only forget about his tiredness and said to Lin Bolan: "Do you remember that I carried you down the mountain like this before?"
Lin Bolan said: "I remember."
Zhao Rui whispered, "Since you can't find a good marriage now, and I can't find a good wife either, why don't we just get together as a couple."
Lin Bolan said: "No, even if my husband doesn't have the talent of a top scholar, he must be familiar with poetry and songs. He can't be a playboy like you..."
Zhao Rui saw a rest pavilion, so he put Lin Bolan down and rested with her in the pavilion and said, "Do you think this prince is really a playboy? This prince is not incapable of poetry and songs, but this prince needs to hide his incompetence, do you understand?"
Lin Bolan said: "I don't understand."
Zhao Rui said: "Your Majesty is my father's brother, and also my mother's brother. If my last name was Xie, it would be fine, but my last name is Zhao. I can only be a carefree and unlearned prince, but that doesn't mean I don't understand your romantic poems and songs."
Lin Bolan looked at Zhao Rui. He was always nonchalant, but this time he seemed serious.
But Lin Bolan suspected that he was a hypocrite.
Zhao Rui saw the look in Lin Bolan's eyes and said, "Your Majesty only has one Crown Prince after all. How can I perform too well? I can only be idle every day..."
Lin Bolan felt that what Zhao Rui said made sense. "If you want to marry me, you have to promise me that you will not take snake eggs anymore in the future."
"I haven't taken it out since that time. I'm not a child anymore."
Lin Bolan smiled at Zhao Rui and said, "And if we get married, you have to accompany me to travel all over the world and paint all the scenery with me. Don't complain about being tired."
Zhao Rui nodded and said, "Well, I can travel all over the world, so why would I feel tired?"
Lin Bolan added: "Also, don't laugh at me for being a crybaby like you did when we were little."
Zhao Rui touched the tip of his nose and said, "Yeah."
Lin Bolan then added: "You are not allowed to take a concubine either."
Zhao Rui smiled, "You don't even need to tell me that. I will never take a concubine. I swear I will treat you wholeheartedly and wholeheartedly for the rest of my life."
Lin Bolan looked into Zhao Rui's eyes and said, "Do you like me, or do you have to settle for the next best thing and think that I am the only one who is suitable to be your wife now that you are old enough? After all, last autumn, you said that you wanted to marry Gu Yan who was wearing women's clothes..."
Zhao Rui looked at Lin Bolan and said, "I do like you. I have liked you since I was a child. I am not idle enough not to like you, but I accompany you to the mountains to paint.
It's just that you liked Gu Yan at that time, and I also know that you and Gu Yan are more suitable for each other, and I also think that I am not worthy of you. Later, when my brother "died", I thought a lot, life is short, and I don't want to leave any regrets in this short life. "
Zhao Rui looked at Lin Bolan and said, "I don't mind that you liked Gu Yan before, as long as you can like me more in the future."
Lin Bolan smiled and said, "You don't mind that I liked Senior Brother Gu before, but I mind that you liked Senior Brother Gu before..."
Zhao Rui hurriedly said: "That's all in the past, dear sister, please don't mention it again."
Lin Bolan smiled at Zhao Rui and said, "Then pick a date and come to my house to discuss marriage."
Zhao Rui smiled excitedly and wanted to hug Lin Bolan, but he had some reservations.
Instead, Lin Bolan took the initiative to extend his hand and said, "Carry me down the mountain."
Zhao Rui chuckled and carried Lin Boyan down the mountain. When they returned to the Lin family, it was already dark.
When Lin Bolan entered the house, she saw her mother looking at her with concern.
"Lan'er, why are you coming back now?"
Lin Bolan chuckled and held Madam Lin's hand and said, "Mother, I have found a reliable husband who will treat me well, will not take concubines, and will follow my wishes."
Mrs. Lin asked, "Who?"
"Xiang County Prince Zhao Rui."
Madam Lin smiled and said, "He, I liked him the most among the cousins when they were young. He is quirky and clever. His mother, Princess Xiang, is also easy to get along with. He is indeed a reliable husband. But didn't you dislike him the most when you were young?"
Lin Bolan lowered her head and said shyly, "You also said it was when we were little."
Mrs. Lin smiled gently when she saw Lin Bolan was shy.
