Chapter 75: Uncle Xu discovers something and Luo Jinan stays at Xu's house

This small shop only provides simple tea and food to travelers passing by, so there is nothing complicated and the dishes are very simple.

Fortunately, everyone just wanted to fill their stomachs and didn’t pay too much attention to it.

Luo Jinan sat next to Xu Nian and asked Uncle Xu to sit on the other side. Shang Jinzhi, who came in last, just lowered his head and smiled without saying much.

Xu Nian had a tasteless meal because Luo Jin'an was too noisy around her, serving her food and pouring her tea. He even removed the bones from the fish before putting it in her bowl, attracting everyone's attention and making them glance at him from time to time.

"Luo~Jin~An~"

Hearing Xu Nian utter his name harshly through his teeth, Luo Jinan finally calmed down a little.

However, his actions made Xu Fugui suspicious, "Why does he feel that the prince seems to have feelings for Nian'er?" Xu Fugui became alert and hurriedly stopped Luo Jin'an who was about to get into Xu Nian's carriage.

"My Lord, please come with me in a carriage. I have something to ask you."

Xu Nian looked at Luo Jinan who was held back, gave her second uncle an admiring look, and got on the carriage by herself.

Shang Jinzhi looked at Luo Jinan who had turned cold and agreed fearlessly: "How about the prince and I share a carriage? I also want to ask the prince a few questions."

Luo Jinan looked at the pair of peach blossom eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, feeling depressed, he turned around and went to Xu Fugui's carriage.

Hearing that there was no movement outside, Xu Nian leaned back on the cushion and closed his eyes with peace of mind. Only Xiu'er, Liuyun and Liuqin were left in the carriage, looking at each other.

Before entering the county town, Shang Jinzhi said goodbye and left.

After entering the county city and seeing that they were getting closer and closer to the county government office, Xu Fugui looked at Luo Jinan who was resting his eyes and did not dare to ask whether he wanted to get off the carriage.

When they arrived at the county government office, Luo Jin'an opened his eyes and said, "Since we are in Wansheng County, we must go and visit Grandma Xu."

Xu Fugui looked at the sky which was getting dark and twitched his lips, "Who would choose this time to visit?"

"You guys go find an inn to stay in. There's no need to wait here." After giving the order, Luo Jinan followed Xu Nian into the yard.

Xu Yaozu and Tian, ​​who heard the news, also rushed over.

"Your subordinate greets the prince."

Without waiting for Tian to perform the ceremony, Luo Jinan waved his hand to stop her.

"I'm here to visit Grandma Xu. Please lead the way."

Xu Yaozu responded and walked in front to lead the way, not noticing Xu Fugui's constant staring.

Xu Nian saw that her second uncle was also working hard, so she comforted him, "Second uncle, don't worry. The relationship between the prince and I was based on love and courtesy, and we didn't overstep the boundaries."

Seeing his niece speak these words without blushing, Xu Fugui said anxiously, "He is the prince. Even if he really wants to do this, it won't work. We are the daughter of a respectable family and we can never let anyone be his concubine."

Xu Nian said seriously: "Don't worry, Second Uncle, I won't become someone's concubine."

"But……"

"Uncle, this is all nonsense. Just trust that I won't do anything out of line."

Xu Fugui nodded a few times, but ultimately said nothing.

The Xu family was all very surprised to see Luo Jinan, but the happiest ones were Wang and Xiao Liuzi.

"Prince, have you been feeling better recently?" Wang smiled kindly.

"Thanks to Grandma Xu, everything is fine. Grandma Xu, just call me Changsheng."

"Okay, okay."

"It's been a few months since we last met. How come you've lost so much weight?"

Xu Nian also looked over carefully and found that he had indeed lost a lot of weight.

"Maybe I have a poor appetite recently, Grandma Xu, don't worry too much."

Wang nodded, thinking of asking the kitchen to prepare more delicious meals tomorrow.

"Brother Changsheng, I miss you so much. My mother said that you are the prince, so I can't call you Brother Changsheng anymore. Is that right?"

Xiao Wang really wanted to cover her stupid son's mouth. He was telling everything.

"Although I am the Duke, you can still call me Brother Changsheng. I came here in a hurry today and I didn't bring anything. How about your elder sister and I go out and choose a gift for you tomorrow?"

Xiao Liuzi didn't know Luo Jin'an's little thoughts, and clapped his hands happily:

"Okay, okay, I'll be back after school tomorrow. Brother Changsheng won't leave, right?"

Luo Jin'an glanced at Xu Nian, and then said to Wang: "I do plan to stay in Wansheng County for a few days this time, but I wonder if it is inconvenient for me to stay here?"

"It's convenient. What's inconvenient about it? Big Boss's wife, go and clean up the yard for Changsheng."

Wang was so happy that she couldn't refuse.

Tian agreed and took Zhao Lan to prepare a place to live. Xu Nian also took Xiu'er and followed Tian out of Shouzhu Courtyard.

Xu Nian hurried over to catch up with Tian and said with a smile, "Mom, I'll help you clean up the yard."

Tian was eager to have this opportunity. The prince was the son of a dragon and a phoenix, and she was afraid that her preparations would not please the nobleman.

"Now there is only an unused small courtyard next to the three brothers of Ji'er. I originally wanted to let the sixth son live there in two years, so I haven't cleaned it up yet. I don't know if the prince will dislike it."

"Mom, no matter how well we clean up, it can't compare to the palace, so we just have to do our best."

Tian smiled helplessly and said, "You are so careless."

The small yard is not big, with only three rooms. Fortunately, the place is not big, so everything can be cleaned up in a short time.

Tian wanted to move all the best things in the mansion to the small courtyard, but Xu Nian stopped her.

Xu Nian simply decorated the room. Both the bedding and the bed curtains were in plain colors, and he placed a few pots of flowers and green plants in the room.

Tian originally wanted Zhao Lan to come and serve Luo Jinan, but Xu Nian suggested that two people come over, after all, the two of them would know Luo Jinan's habits better.

Wang knew that they must be very tired after a whole day's journey. Upon learning that the yard had been cleaned up, she did not want to talk to Luo Jinan any more.

"The room has been cleaned up, Changsheng, go and have some rest."

Luo Jinan did not refuse and went out of Shouzhu Courtyard. Xu Yaozu and Xu Fugui saw him into the courtyard before returning to their respective residences.

Xu Fugui originally wanted to tell his eldest brother about the Prince's thoughts, but when he remembered what his niece said, he said nothing.

After cleaning the yard, Xu Nian did not return to Shouzhu Courtyard, but went to the small kitchen to make a bowl of blood-replenishing medicinal food for Luo Jinan.

"Xiu'er, go and deliver the medicinal food to the messenger. If there is no problem, let Luo Jin'an eat it."

Xiu'er followed the order and went to the small courtyard. At this time, the two people were about to check if there was anything wrong with the layout of the room, but Luo Jin'an had just learned from Wang that the room was decorated by Xu Nian, so he would not let others destroy it.

"You guys go down first, there's no need to serve here."

The two men left the house as ordered, but did not dare to go far. They stood on either side of the door waiting to be called.
