Do you know the long song of laughter?

Chapter 239 Return Gift
Mrs. Sheng and Minglan looked for fame and saw Li An in the crowd.

Minglan saw a hint of joy in Li An's eyes.

Sheng Changjin's improvement was thanks to Li An's idea.

Mrs. Sheng glanced at Minglan and said, "Brother Jin's condition has improved, thanks to brother Li. Now that we have met, I naturally have to thank you. Mother Fang, there is a pavilion in front. I will wait there. You Go and fetch people.”

"Yes." Fang's mother responded and walked in the direction of Li An.

"Let's go."

Seeing that Minglan was still watching intently, Mrs. Sheng said.

Minglan came back to her senses, glanced at Li An, and pulled her brother to follow.

Li An in the crowd actually saw Mrs. Sheng and Minglan.

He actually came to Sanqing Temple this time to see Minglan. He was still a little worried about Sheng Changjin's situation without seeing it with his own eyes.

Li An followed Fang's mother to the outside of the pavilion, bowed and said, "I have met the Sheng family's grandmother."

"Exactly, after school yesterday, the scholar has informed me that classes are officially suspended. I heard that Sanqing Temple will open on the last day today, so I thought of coming to burn incense."

Li An thanked her, entered the pavilion, and sat down on the stone bench to the right of Mrs. Sheng.

"Erlang comes to Sanqing Temple to offer incense when he has time, but the school has been closed?" Old Mrs. Sheng asked.

Just when Li An was about to go over to say hello, he saw Mrs. Sheng leaving with Minglan.

Li An was stunned. Mrs. Sheng clearly saw him, so why did she leave immediately.

It was the middle of winter, and the vegetation in the garden was withered. Only a few dieffenbachia trees were still green and full of vitality.

Minglan had already pulled her brother to stand up when Li An came over.

Li An nodded and said, "Can you please lead the way, mother Fang?"

"Erlang, come and sit down." Mrs. Sheng nodded slightly.

After being blessed by Li An, he took his younger brother to stand beside Mrs. Sheng.

I didn't expect to encounter it so easily.

"Brother Li, please come here."

Mrs. Sheng and sister Minglan were sitting in the pavilion next to the plum tree.

Fang's mother took Li An out of the courtyard of Sanqing Hall through the side door.

At this moment, he saw Fang's mother approaching, so he took Desheng to greet her.

There is a small garden between the courtyard where Sanqing Hall is located and the area provided for guests to live.

However, it was not convenient for him to go directly to her door. He originally wanted to come over and offer incense to see if he could meet her by chance.

Then he slightly raised his hands to the Minglan siblings and said hello.

"I have met the Li family brother." Fang's mother saluted and smiled: "The old lady is in the pavilion over there, and she would like to invite the Li family brother to come over and have a conversation."

There are also several plum trees in the corner that are already in bud.

As Li An spoke, he looked at Sheng Changjin from the corner of his eye.

Sheng Changjin had never met Li An. The last time Li An went into the water to rescue him, he was already unconscious.

But he felt an instinctive affinity for Ang Lee.

Half of his body was hidden behind his sister, secretly looking at Li An.

Li An nodded secretly when he saw that apart from being a little thinner, Sheng Changjin had bright eyes and good energy.

Children are naturally very ambitious. In this state, as long as there is no stimulation, Sheng Changjin will be fine.

This way Minglan won't be sad.

"It's a cold weather. I don't need you young people because of my old bones. Brother Jin has just recovered from a serious illness and he can't bear the cold. I'll take him back first. Girl Ming, you can talk to Erlang."

Mrs. Sheng chatted with Li An for a while, and then took Sheng Changjin back to her room on the pretext of the cold weather.

Nowadays, Zhu Neo's theory has not yet appeared, and the protection between men and women in the Song Dynasty was actually not that strict.

In the original drama, when the He family’s grandmother brought He Hongwen to the house, Mrs. Sheng even created time for the two of them to be alone.
Although Li An and Minglan's marriage has not been announced, it has been decided.

With Mrs. Sheng's approval, the conversation between the two was not considered a private meeting. The two of them stood in the pavilion and watched Mrs. Sheng go away, then returned to the pavilion and sat down. The atmosphere became a little subtle for a while.

Li An was single all his life, and now he was alone with his fiancée, and he didn't know what to say.

The main reason is that Minglan is too young. If she makes a joke, she always feels guilty.

Minglan, on the other hand, was shy and embarrassed to speak. She blushed and lowered her head, like a frustrated little daughter-in-law.

Xiaotao looked worried for the two of them. She rolled her eyes and said loudly: "Girl, Mr. Li, I will go over there and guard for you."

After saying that, he walked out of the pavilion. After walking two steps, he saw Desheng still standing there dumbly, then he turned back and dragged him out.

"Miss Xiaotao, why are you pulling me here!" Desheng was caught off guard and staggered.

He stabilized his body and shouted with some dissatisfaction.

"You are the only one who is still a book boy. You don't have any eyesight. Master, what are you doing here?" Xiao Tao glared at him.

"I…"

Desheng turned his head and glanced at Li An. Seeing that he didn't speak, he also reacted. He smiled and said, "What Miss Xiao Tao said is that I will also go outside and guard."

Li An watched Desheng follow Xiao Tao away and was a little surprised. Xiao Tao was not a silly girl, but now she looked very smart.

But he didn't have time to think too much. Now he and Minglan were the only ones left in the pavilion. He couldn't let the girl speak first.

"Then...I like that hand collar very much, it's very warm."

As soon as Li An said the words, he cursed himself in his heart for being useless.

Minglan felt happy when she heard this, looked up at Li An, quickly lowered her head, and whispered: "Brother Ziqian likes it, that's all."

Li An took a deep breath, took out a small wooden box from his arms, placed it on the stone table, and said, "This is for you."

Minglan glanced at the wooden box on the table and said, "Thank you, brother Ziqian."

"Don't you want to open it and take a look?" Li An said with a smile.

"No matter what it is, I like all the gifts from brother Ziqian." Minglan's voice became lower and lower, and in the end it was almost inaudible.

I liked the last one, but Li An didn't even hear it clearly, but he roughly guessed what she meant based on her previous words.

Seeing Minglan's shy look, Li An found it very interesting and said with a smile: "You should open it first and take a look."

"Oh."

Minglan reached out and picked up the wooden box and opened it.

Seeing the white jade hairpin placed inside, he was surprised and said, "Isn't this the hairpin that brother Ziqian won on the polo field last time?"

"Well, it's useless for me to keep it. It wasn't appropriate to give it to anyone before, but it's just right to give it to you now." Li An said with a smile.

Minglan quickly lowered her head when she heard this, and her face turned even redder.

Li An smiled and said, "Shall I bring it for you?"

"Yeah." Minglan nodded her head and responded inaudibly.

Although Li An didn't hear the sound, he could see her nodding.

So he stood up, took out the hairpin from the wooden box and came behind Minglan.

Minglan wore a concentric bun today, with only one silver hairpin on her head.

Li An took off the silver hairpin and inserted the white jade hairpin.

Minglan felt the touch of Li An's hand and her hair, and her heart beat violently.

After finishing it, Li An returned to his seat and sat down. He looked at Minglan and said with a smile, "Not bad. With this hairpin, it looks even more beautiful."

Minglan lowered her head even lower when she heard this, and her ears turned red.

When Li An saw this, he stopped teasing her, told her about Sheng Changjin's situation, and told her to play with Sheng Changjin more.

Then he said goodbye and left.

Although the protection between men and women is not very strict now, helping Minglan wear a hairpin is already a very intimate gesture.

No matter how intimate it is, Minglan can't accept it, and Li An can't do it.
