Chapter 352 Yueyue, don’t you love to watch the fun?
Seeing this, Lan Xiyue immediately wolfed down the food, completely disregarding her image.
Chuchun was busy tidying the bed. When she turned around, she happened to see Lan Xiyue eating. She couldn't help but shook her head, with a gentle smile on her lips: "Miss, eat slowly, be careful not to choke."
Lan Xiyue's mouth was full of food, and she retorted incoherently: "Chuchun... do you think I'm a three-year-old child who can choke while eating..." However, before she could finish her words, she was choked by the big mouthful of bun she had just swallowed.
Seeing this, Chu Xia quickly patted her back gently.
Chuchun also quickly came over, poured a cup of tea, and handed it to Lan Xiyue: "Miss, come on, drink the tea in big gulps."
Lan Xiyue took the teacup and took a swig, finally swallowing the bun stuck in her throat. She patted her chest and gasped, "Oh my god, I'm choking to death."
Chu Xia covered her mouth and chuckled softly, with a mischievous glint in her eyes: "What did the young lady say just now?"
Lan Xiyue glared at Chu Xia unhappily and said in feigned anger, "Are you so bold? You even dare to make fun of me?"
Chuchun couldn't help laughing beside him, "Chuxia is so brave, isn't it because of the young lady who spoiled her."
After some laughter and playfulness, Lan Xiyue finally felt full. She patted her stomach, sighed contentedly, then stood up and walked over to the small couch to lie down, staring out the window in a daze. Since coming to this world, she seemed to have completely gotten used to everything here. This simple and warm life was pretty good.
Chu Xia saw this and said softly, "Miss, the capital is very lively today, and there are soldiers on both sides to maintain order."
Although Lan Xiyue looked out the window, her mind had already drifted far away and she said "Oh" lightly.
Chu Xia said excitedly, "I heard that Princess Linchuan and King Saibei will arrive in Beijing today. The Third Prince is even bringing some ministers to greet them at the city gate. The scene is bound to be very lively."
Chuchun's hands were busy on the table, tidying up the tea set, with a faint smile on her lips: "Yes, there are people from other countries who have also come to the capital. They are all here to attend the wedding of the young lady and the regent. The young lady's wedding will definitely be an unprecedented grand occasion."
Lan Xiyue's lips curled up into a faint smile, but within that smile was a subtle bitterness. She recalled her conversation with Mo Liyuan last night. After the wedding, he would personally lead the troops to quell the rebellion. Why did the system's suggestion suddenly make her not want the wedding to come?
Chuchun was a thoughtful girl. She noticed Lan Xiyue's abnormality, put down her work, walked over to her, and asked softly, "Miss, what's wrong with you? Are you unhappy?"
Lan Xiyue lowered her head and said sullenly, "Nothing, I just suddenly don't want the wedding to come anymore."
Chuchun frowned upon hearing this, "Miss, please don't let your imagination run wild. The Regent is very kind to you. He won't let you suffer any injustice, and he won't treat you unfairly."
Lan Xiyue felt mixed emotions, and she thought to herself: It's because he's so good to me that I feel sorry for him by doing that. She would rather they had never fallen in love, and would rather he be a little harder and worse to her, so that she could do it as a matter of course, instead of being so entangled now.
Chuchun and Chuxia exchanged a glance, each seeing the confusion in the other's eyes. They didn't understand why the young lady suddenly said she didn't want the wedding to come. Did the young lady have a quarrel with the regent?
At this time, a little maid came in, bowed and said, "Miss, Xiao Muzi just came over to tell you that the eldest young master wants you to come over."
Lan Xiyue nodded slightly after hearing this: "Okay, I'll be there in a moment."
She got up and changed into a new, elegant dress. Chuchun carefully combed her hair and took care of everything.
After packing up, Lan Xiyue walked out of the room.
Lan Xiyue came to her brother's yard. As soon as she stepped in, she saw her brother standing tall and straight, with the long sword in his hand like a dragon emerging from the sea. The tip of the sword lightly tapped, bringing up gusts of breeze and the sword shadow dancing.
Xiao Muzi had sharp eyes and spotted the figure of his eldest daughter at a glance. He quickly stepped forward and bowed, "Your servant greets the young lady. Miss, the young master's legs have just recovered. Is it okay to practice sword like this?" His words were full of worry.
Lan Xiyue waved her hand, a gentle smile on her lips: "It's okay to practice a little, don't worry."
Hearing this, Xiao Muzi finally felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief.
Lan Shenye paused, lightly tapping the ground with the tip of his sword before steadily retracting his attack. He wiped the sweat from his forehead, a smile flickering in his eyes as he slowly walked towards Lan Xiyue: "Yueyue, you're here."
Xiao Muzi stepped forward, took the sword from Lan Shenye's hand, and inserted it into the scabbard.
"Brother, you asked me to come here, but what's the important matter?" Lan Xiyue looked up at her brother, curiosity glittering in her eyes.
Lan Shenye chuckled softly, his eyes full of tenderness. "The capital has been bustling with activity lately. You're getting married soon, so you should stay indoors. But I know your personality very well, and you definitely wouldn't want to be confined to your boudoir. If you want to go out for a walk, I'll accompany you. Besides, my legs have healed now, and I'm thinking of going out for a walk, too."
Lan Xiyue's eyes turned, "How about calling Duoduo to come along?"
Lan Shenye smiled even more broadly upon hearing this, without the slightest objection: "Alright, it's more fun with more people."
So the brother and sister left the house and got on a carriage. The carriage rumbled all the way to Qian's house.
When the carriage reached the gate of Qian's house, it stopped. Xiao Muzi jumped off lightly, walked forward and talked to the servant of Qian's house.
Not long after, Qian Duoduo rushed out of the house like a gust of wind and hurriedly got on the carriage. When he saw the person inside the carriage clearly, he suddenly paused, then awkwardly tidied his hair on his forehead and sat down aside, saying with a hint of unnaturalness in his voice, "Brother Lan is here too."
Seeing this, Lan Shenye smiled gently and broke the silence: "Duoduo, there's no need to be so polite."
Lan Xiyue looked at the two of them and muttered to herself: If we let them develop on their own like this, who knows how long it will take. Today, she will be the matchmaker and create some opportunities for her brother and Qian Duoduo.
"Brother, look at Duoduo. He is so lively on weekdays, but why does he become nervous when he sees you?" There was a hint of sarcasm in Lan Xiyue's words.
Hearing this, Lan Shenye smiled faintly and then stood up. "I'd better sit outside. Maybe this will make Duoduo feel more comfortable."
Lan Xiyue raised an eyebrow and turned her gaze to Qian Duoduo, "Brother, why don't we go boating on the lake?"
Lan Shenye paused slightly when he heard this, clearly a little surprised. "Yueyue, don't you love to watch the fun? I even specially booked a private room in the teahouse."
