Chapter 202: Moonlight Boat (6)
Ji Rangzhou pinched his cheek and made his mouth pout.
Su Xingyu glared, "Bad Jiji——"
Ji Rangzhou carried him to the dwarf magnolia tree in the mansion, placed him on the lowest branch, and let go, "Climb."
Su Xingyu was happy and climbed up and down the branches. When he climbed down, he didn't hold on firmly and slid down with a "swoosh".
Ji Rangzhou reached out and grabbed him by the back of his collar and put him on the ground.
The little guy wasn't afraid, but he didn't say he wanted to climb the tree anymore. He stretched out his hand towards Ji Rangzhou and said, "Uncle, hold me!"
Ji Rangzhou glanced at the sawdust on his body, moved away from him, and walked in front of him with his hands behind his back, "Walk by yourself."
Su Xingyu followed him with an unhappy look on his face.
The mother and daughter who were walking in the garden were a little surprised to see him.
The wife of the Duke of Fuguo asked, "You came back quite early today."
"I'm done."
"Grandma, my uncle bullied me!" Su Xingyu ran over and hugged the legs of the wife of the Duke of Fuguo.
"Hey, where did you get all this sawdust on you?" Lady Fuguo bent down and patted him.
"My uncle took me to climb a tree, and I slid down and I ended up like this."
Ji Rangzhou glanced at him.
Ji Yangqing couldn't help but understand his son, so he smiled and said, "You begged your uncle to take you to climb, didn't you? You got yourself all dirty, and now you're blaming your uncle."
"He pinched my face and wouldn't let me speak."
Ji Rangzhou said, "I didn't get much rest in the past two days. I'll go back to the courtyard first."
"Go ahead." Lady Fuguo replied, patting her grandson's head. "Tell me why your uncle pinched your face."
"I told my mother not to help him pick out a bracelet for Aunt Lin, and told Aunt Lin to ignore him."
The wife of the Duke of Fuguo chuckled and said to Ji Yangqing, "Your brother is becoming more and more popular. He even competes with children."
"That's right. Some time ago he wrote to me and asked me what Lin'er liked. I was quite surprised. I wanted to tease him that day, but when I was about to go back, he didn't come back."
"At the beginning of the year, he and Lin'er seemed to have had a disagreement. He asked your father to go drink with Lin'er's second uncle, hoping to see Lin'er, but Lin'er refused to see him. Later, Lin'er went to Runan. After Lin'er returned from Runan, he became busy again. I wonder if the conflict between the two has been resolved now."
"What kind of awkwardness happened that made Lin'er angry for so long?" Mingyuelin has a good personality. Ji Yangqing couldn't imagine what kind of awkwardness would make her remember it for several months.
"If your brother doesn't tell me, I don't really know."
After attending court and working every day, Ji Rangzhou finally got his day off.
He ordered Xing Zhao: "Go to the Anguogong Mansion and ask if the second young lady is there."
Xing Zhao left the house and returned shortly afterwards: "Sir, the second Miss Ming has entered the palace to accompany Princess Kangning today."
Ji Rangzhou lowered the corners of his lips slightly and went to the study, "Yeah."
Zhen Mian nudged Xing Zhao's arm with his elbow, "My Lord is unhappy."
"I can see it." After a closer look, I found that the adults were not dressed as casually as before, and they had specially "dressed up".
Ji Rangzhou wrote another letter, asking Xing Zhao to go to the Duke of Anguo's Mansion again.
Mingyuelin came back from the palace in the afternoon and learned that Ji Rangzhou had written her another letter. She went into the house and opened it.
"Everything is settled, and I have quite a bit of free time."
Qi Yu, who had brought back a bowl of ice from the kitchen, said, "Miss, as soon as you entered the palace this morning, Prince Ji's men came to ask if you were at home today."
"Are you just asking me whether I am at home?" Ming Yuelin looked at these eight words carefully, trying to figure out what he meant.
Come find her when you are free, she won't take the initiative to find him. Two days ago, when she went to Yang Qing's sister's house to play, Yang Qing's sister asked her if she had a quarrel with Ji Gudong.
We have pen and ink, so why are you so frugal with words?
"Yes, that's all."
"Oh, then wait until he comes to ask next time."
Mingyuelin found paper and pen to write him a reply and asked someone to deliver it to the Fuguogong Mansion.
You value words like gold, right? She also values words like gold.
When Ji Rangzhou opened the letter, he saw the words "Du Miaomiao" on the paper, fell silent, and began to guess what she meant.
"oh"
She seemed unhappy again.
After a few days, Mingyuelin no longer thought about Ji Rangzhou because her brothers had returned from Shouzhou.
When Ming Zhaohuan visited her in the night and asked her if she had done anything to annoy Shi Jianli, Ming Yuelin was shocked and began to dig deep into the affairs between Shi Jianli and Ming Zhaohuan.
After Mingzhao left, Mingyuelin still felt a little dreamy.
Big Brother was flirting with Sister Li without her knowing.
It was all Ji Gudong’s fault for always bothering her, otherwise she would have discovered it earlier.
She made a mental note of Ji Rangzhou again.
Ming Yuelin completely forgot about Ji Rangzhou. She is now more interested in what is happening between Ming Zhao and Shi Jianli.
Ming Yuelin didn't dare to ask Shi Jianli directly, so she secretly asked Tianfeng and Tianyu, and then went to Minghuayuan to ask again. She learned that the misunderstanding between the two had been resolved, and Yuan Yuhe had casually arranged for her to go boating in Taiyuan Lake.
After enjoying the view of Taiyuan Lake for a while on the third floor of the pleasure boat, Mingyuelin saw Mingzhao walking towards her and handed her a cyan invitation. "This is from Ji Youqian."
Mingyuelin opened the invitation and said, "I want to see you. Can I make an appointment?"
I wrote it today, and the ink is still fresh, so it must have been written in the morning.
Mingyuelin closed the invitation and sat on a high chair, swinging his legs.
"Brother!" She called out to Mingzhao who had turned around and walked a short distance away.
Mingzhao walked back and asked, "What's wrong?"
Ming Yuelin waved the invitation in front of him and asked, "Does he know that we are going to cruise the lake?"
"Yes. He wrote to me yesterday and asked me what I was going to do today. I said I would take you to the lake."
"Oh, go ahead." Mingyuelin waved at him, and raised the corner of her lips after he turned around.
Not long after Mingzhao went down, he saw Ji Rangzhou carrying Su Xingyu up and throwing Su Xingyu to Ji Yangqing.
Mingyue leaned back a little with her hands, resting her head on her arms and watching him "bully" the child.
Noticing her gaze, Ji Rangzhou took Su Xingyu off his hand and walked towards her.
Seeing Ji Rangzhou coming, the others looked at each other and left.
Ming Yuelin sat up straighter, and when he came to her, they looked at each other silently for a moment, then she asked, "What do you want to see me for?"
"Are you still not happy?"
"No." Ming Yuelin swung her legs again, tilted her eyes towards him, and deliberately called him: "Brother Ji."
Ji Rangzhou lowered his eyes and stared at her, a serious look flashing across his eyes.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Mingyuelin curled her lips slightly and turned her head to look out the window.
It was obvious that he wanted to see her, but he didn't say anything when he saw her.
Ji Rangzhou raised his hand and placed it on her head, rubbing it gently. "She's not my sister, she's my fiancée."
