Do you know the long song of laughter?

Chapter 236 Minglan’s gift

After hearing this, Mrs. Sheng nodded thoughtfully and said, "Thank you very much, Erlang. Let's stay here for a meal tonight."

"No trouble, it's getting late, I'll go back first." Li An stood up and said.

Old Mrs. Sheng didn't hold back and asked Fang's mother to send Li An out on her behalf.

After leaving Shou'an Hall, Li An asked Fang's mother to stay and walked out with Desheng who was waiting outside the hospital.

"Brother Ziqian!"

As they were walking, Minglan and Xiao Tao walked out from the side door.

"Sixth girl!"

Li An took a look at Minglan. He had indeed lost a lot of weight after not seeing her for a while.

Because the weather was cold, Minglan wore a cotton-padded jacket and a cloak, but she didn't look bulky.

Li An watched her figure disappear and walked out with Desheng.

"Brother Bo Ziqian can also wear it when writing. I tried it, but it was only slightly affected. Although it is not used normally, it can be used during the imperial examination." Minglan said.

Minglan bowed and took Xiaotao away.

Li An put away his gloves and wondered whether he should give Minglan a gift in return.

The provincial examination is in March next year, and it is still relatively cold at night.

"Thank you, brother Ziqian."

The gloves are actually gloves. Minglan made two pairs, one thin and one thick.

After getting on the carriage, Li An tried on the gloves and they all fit perfectly.

Li An thought Minglan was waiting for him here to ask about Sheng Changjin, so he took the initiative to speak.

"I also wore a pair of kneepads, but they are not ready yet. I will send them to brother Ziqian when they are ready." Minglan lowered her head and said.

Li An knew that Minglan was preparing for his provincial examination next year.

Li An wanted to talk to persuade him to stay, but finally said: "Well, I should go back, otherwise it will be dark."

"Thank you, I like it very much."

"Why did you make two sets?" Li An asked with a smile.

The thin ones are made of fabric, and the thick ones are made of leather.

Minglan nodded and said, "Then I'll leave first."

"Yeah, but don't work too hard. It's still early for the provincial examination." Li An said.

A blush appeared on Minglan's face. She turned around and took out a cloth bag from Xiaotao. She handed it to Li An and said, "It's cold now. I made two pairs of handbags for brother Ziqian. They were not done well. Ziqian Brother, don’t dislike it.”

"I've already told Mrs. Sheng the solution. There should be no problem. Don't worry."

Li An took it and opened it. There were two sets of handbags inside.

The original round face has almost become an oval face.

The bracelet last time was considered a gift from Zhang. Although it was attributed to him, it was not his choice after all.

Why don't you give Minglan the white jade hairpin you won at the last polo meet?

……

Duke's Mansion of Qi
Princess Pingning was sitting in the hall with a pale face. Seeing her husband come in, she said coldly: "Heng'er still refuses to eat?"

"Still not eaten." Qi Guogong shook his head.

"Forget it if you don't want to eat. It's okay to be hungry." Princess Pingning said angrily.

Duke Guo of Qi came to sit down next to his wife and said, "Heng'er has been studying in the Sheng family for a few years. This brother of the Sheng family is seriously ill. I think I can help him by asking an imperial doctor to come and repay the favor. "

"What else can I give you? I already gave Brother Heng a generous gift before he came to study. Our family doesn't owe the Sheng family anything." Princess Pingning said angrily. "Yes, yes, I know. But Heng'er values ​​​​love. He and his brother from the Sheng family have been studying together for several years and have already developed a relationship. It's okay to want to help. He has already promised to others. If he doesn't do this, what will happen in the future? It doesn’t look good, either.” Qi Guogong advised.

"What do you know? He has feelings for the brother of the Sheng family. He has feelings for the sixth girl of the Sheng family." Princess Pingning said.

"What? Is there such a thing?"

Duke Qi frowned and said, "Isn't this impossible?"

"Why do you think the Sheng family is worried about letting a few girls study with Heng'er? In the past, it was fine, but now they are almost growing up, and they still let a few girls study in the school. Don't you understand?" Pingning County The Lord gritted his teeth and said.

"Haha, it's not like our Heng'er is so good. This lady from a famous family in Bianjing likes Heng'er a lot." Qi Guogong said proudly.

"But he just fell in love with the little concubine of the Sheng family. Now that the marriage has been decided, he still doesn't give up." Princess Pingning said.

"Then you still say that the Sheng family is not well-intentioned? I think you are overthinking it. Besides, Brother Heng may not have given up. Maybe he just wants to repay the favor of the Sheng family." Qi Guogong said.

"The sick Sheng family brother is the younger brother of Miss Sheng Liu's mother. Moreover, when I asked him about it, the Sheng family didn't ask him for help at all. As soon as he heard that Miss Sheng Liu was worried about his brother's illness, he couldn't help but I stopped reading, so I took a leave of absence and came back."

Princess Pingning became even more angry when she mentioned it.

Qi Heng went to school this afternoon and came back soon.

She thought Qi Heng was feeling unwell and rushed out to greet him.

As a result, Qi Heng said that someone in the Sheng family was ill and that many doctors could not treat him well, so he asked her to help him find an imperial doctor.

Princess Pingning asked who was sick, but Qi Heng was vague and finally said that it was the Sheng family brother who was sick.

Princess Pingning sensed something was wrong, found an excuse to send Qi Heng away, and then had Bu Wei called over for questioning.

Why would he dare to deceive Princess Pingning since last time?

However, he did not tell everything. He only said that Qi Heng heard that Qi Lang of the Sheng family was ill and that many doctors could not see the problem, so Qi Heng wanted to hire an imperial doctor for help.

Princess Pingning also knew a little about the situation of the Sheng family. When she heard that the sick person was the biological brother of Minglan's mother, she knew that Qi Heng had no intention of giving up.

Princess Pingning, like her husband, was very proud of Qi Heng's popularity.

But she didn't want Qi Heng to fall in love with someone else easily.

In her opinion, Qi Heng could only marry the legitimate daughter of the same family as Qi.

Moreover, the woman’s family also needs to help Qi Heng’s future.

Not even a family like the Rong family, which looks noble but is already declining.

What's more, a small family like the Sheng family.

However, Qi Heng fell in love with the sixth girl from the Sheng family, who was already engaged, but he still didn't give up.

Princess Pingning angrily scolded Qi Heng and told him that he was no longer allowed to study at the Sheng family from now on.

Princess Pingning knew that Qi Heng liked Minglan and promised to let Qi Heng go to school.

Worried that this would affect his studies, Princess Pingning still went to the Sheng family and hinted that the Sheng family should not let several girls study with Qi Heng.

However, it now seems that if Qi Heng is allowed to continue studying in the Sheng family, not to mention his studies, he will even lose his soul.

This time Princess Pingning was determined not to let Qi Heng go to the Sheng family to study.

Qi Heng did not expect Princess Pingning to be so decisive, so he went on a hunger strike.

"Young Mu Ai is normal. But the Sheng family is indeed not worthy of our family. But what about Heng'er? That child has been stubborn since he was a child. How will his body suffer if he continues to go on a hunger strike?" Qi Guogong asked worriedly.

"This..." Princess Pingning also hesitated after hearing this.

"In my opinion, the sixth girl from the Sheng family is engaged anyway, and Heng'er won't be able to change anything even if he doesn't give up. If he wants to hire an imperial doctor, hire one for him, and let him continue studying. Anyway, he will give it a try in more than a year. , then he will no longer have to go to the Sheng family to study." Qi Guogong said.

"No!"

Princess Pingning didn't even think about it and said, "Then there are two girls in the Sheng family. Although they no longer go to school, who knows if they will seduce Heng'er in private."
