Lu family's daughter-in-law

Chapter 217
Not long after Ningxiang returned from her daughter's side, she heard from the maid that the prince and uncle had come.

Anan Amu?

Ning Xiang wondered, what are the two children doing here at this hour?
"Mother, I heard that Guo'er is sick?" Xiao Nan came to the backyard and asked with concern when he saw his adoptive mother who was waiting for them at the door of the main room.Xu Mu was three steps behind him, with concern in his eyes.He and his niece played together until they grew up, and their relationship is deeper than that of his two nephews.

Ningxiang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and explained with a smile: "Guo'er didn't sleep well last night, and caught a cold, and it seems that you two are so anxious about something trivial, so don't run outside the palace casually in the future. Guo'er is really seriously ill. Will you send someone to tell you?"

"Kai Chunniang twisted her foot, so she didn't tell me." The adoptive mother always reported good news but not bad news, Xiao Nan retorted with a bit of complaint.

The young man lowered his voice, as if complaining to his mother when he was a child, Ning Xiang was nostalgic and funny, and said affectionately: "Okay, stop talking to me, I just came back from Guo'er, you two go and have a look Well, Guo'er must be happy that brother and uncle care about her so much, but hurry back to the palace after a while, don't delay too long."

Ningxiang was afraid of delaying her son's studies. The 17-year-old prince must be very busy to take over Jiangshan Sheji in the future.

"Mother, rest well." Xiao Nan smiled and led Xu Mu away.

Everyone in the house knew that the prince was actually another son of Mrs. Hou, a family member, and the girl's elder brother, so the girl was sick, and no one thought it was wrong for Xiao Nan and Xu Mu to visit the girl's boudoir.

When Guo'er heard that Xiao Nan was coming, she became nervous for a while, turned to the side and pretended to sleep.

When Xiao Nan and Xu Mu saw each other, they all knew that she was pretending to be asleep, otherwise the maid would not have spoken so loudly just now, but had to wake up the master first.

Xu Mu shook his head towards Xiao Nan, and smiled helplessly, this niece is so naughty even when she is sick.

Xiao Nan resisted the urge to send Xu Mu out immediately, walked to the bed, bowed his head and called the little girl lying under the quilt, "Guo'er."

A soft sound, very gentle.

Guo'er bit the bullet and turned around, her little face was flushed, her almond eyes quickly swept across Xiao Nan, and landed on her uncle.

Xu Mu was startled, stepped forward and asked, "Why is your face so red?"

Guo'er knew why her face was hot, she blinked guiltily, and asked the two what they were doing here.

"The prince heard that you were ill, so he hurried out of the palace to visit." Xu Mu pulled two chairs in front of the bed, and motioned Xiao Nan to sit with him.Xiao Nan likes his niece the most, Xu Mu knows it better than anyone else, so no matter how good Xiao Nan treats Guoer, Xu Mu regards the relationship between the two as pure brother and sister, after all, he also regards Xiao Nan as his own nephew in his heart of.

However, Xiao Nan didn't treat him as his own uncle, turned to Guoer, and pushed him away in a low voice, "I have something to say to Guoer alone, you go to Guoer's study to read, I will call you later."

"What can't you say in front of me?" Xu Mu was puzzled, and looked at his niece, hoping that she would keep him.

Guo'er pursed her lips, and persuaded in a low voice: "Uncle, go first, the prince's brother has someone he likes, and he wants me to help him make up his mind." She thought about it all night, since Xiao Nan came , might as well listen to what he wants to say.

Xu Mu stared at Xiao Nan with wide eyes, the two of them were almost inseparable, when did Xiao Nan have a sweetheart?
"Go." Xiao Nan frowned impatiently.

Xu Mu glared at him, knowing that Xiao Nan would definitely not tell him, and left resentfully.

Xiao Nan followed out, pretending to have just remembered something, asked Xu Mu to find a book for him, watched Xu Mu enter the study, and then ordered Guo'er's two big maids to guard in the main room.Wen Ying and Ting Que heard this, and felt a little strange in their hearts. They looked at each other, thoughtfully not thinking about it, and stayed outside peacefully.

Xiao Nan re-entered the room, and Guo'er turned around again.

"Why didn't you sleep well?" Time was short, Xiao Nan sat on the bed, turned the little girl over domineeringly, and looked at her dodging almond eyes guiltily, "Because my words made you unhappy? Guo'er, I said , you don't have to promise me."

If Guo'er likes him, the troubles will be sweet troubles, and only if he doesn't like him, will he be tossed until he gets sick.Xiao Nan understands this truth, he blames himself for causing her illness, and is bitter because of the unreciprocated feelings, but he still tries to coax her with a forced smile, hiding the sadness in his phoenix eyes.

Guo'er saw it, and felt uncomfortable, she didn't want Xiao Nan to be like this, there are only a handful of people in the capital who can make him laugh, Guo'er knew that she was the one that Xiao Nan valued the most, but before she misunderstood Xiao Nan's feelings as a brother-sister relationship .

Guo'er explained distressedly, "No, don't get me wrong..."

Xiao Nanfeng's eyes immediately filled with hope, as if he couldn't believe what he heard, he stared at Guo'er, "You mean, you promised me?"

The pitiful person just now became so enthusiastic in a blink of an eye that Guoer panicked and stammered: "No, I, I really don't know..." He hid under the blanket anxiously, covered his head, and was so worried.

Xiao Nan didn't quite understand what she meant, and touched her head through the quilt, "Guo'er, what don't you know? I wonder if you like me?"

Guo'er nodded, because she couldn't see him, her thoughts became a little clearer, and she said dully: "I don't want to make you sad, but I have always regarded you as my brother, and you suddenly said that you want to marry me, I don't know what to do. If you don't promise you, you will be very pitiful, and I will feel bad to see you pitiful, so if I promise you, what if I always treat you as my brother?"

How can brothers and sisters get married?

Xiao Nan understood, he really wanted to say that as long as she agreed to marry him, he would be happy to just treat him as an elder brother for the rest of her life, but this certainly wouldn't convince her.Staring at the flat blanket in front of him, Xiao Nan thought for a moment, then looked back at the door, patted Guo'er lightly, and said in a low voice: "Come out, I have a way to make you sure Not like me."

Guo'er was curious, her head popped out like a bunny, her almond eyes were confused, "What can I do?"

Xiao Nan looked at her, his fair face blushed quickly.

Guo'er opened her small mouth in surprise, unable to understand his change, just looking at the red-faced Xiao Nan, she was inexplicably nervous.

Xiao Nan really couldn't say it, hesitated a few times, and suddenly smelled a faint smell of medicine.Thinking of her being ill, and now that he doesn't help her to make sure, she may still suffer at night, Xiao Nan clenched his fists, his eyes became firmer, he looked at Guo'er calmly and said: "Guo'er, I remember eavesdropping on mother and Qiu when I was young. My aunt said that if a girl likes someone, her heart will beat faster when she is kissed by that person, and she will feel very sweet..."

The more you speak, the lower your voice becomes.

Guo'er's face was redder than his, and she pulled up the quilt in embarrassment, "I won't give you a kiss, you go away."

"You don't want to know if you like me or not?" Xiao Nan's heart fluttered, he bent down, and pulled down her quilt bit by bit, his voice became more gentle, with the temptation that the little girl couldn't resist, "Guoer, Just kiss, if you don’t like me and feel disgusted, then I won’t kiss me right away, and I won’t embarrass you anymore, I will stay in the palace every day, so it won’t affect your mood, and won’t make you sick again.”

First coaxing her gently, and then saying that kind of words pitifully, Guo'er was just in love, how could she stand such a trick, she let go of the hand tightly clutching the quilt, gave him a shy and timid glance, and closed her eyes acquiescingly. eyes.Because she was nervous, she licked her lips, making Xiao Nan's mouth dry.

"Guo'er, you are so kind to me." Xiao Nan said incomparably satisfied, almost pious.

Guo'er pursed her lips, but said nothing.

Time waits for no one, Xiao Nan is guilty of being a thief, and looking outside again, he finally couldn't resist the temptation of his sweetheart.Anan has never kissed anyone, but when he was 13 years old, his father gave him a few books and asked him "kindly" if he wanted to add two people to the house.Xiao Nan rejected the beauty, but out of curiosity, he read those books with pictures and words, so Xiao Nan knew how to kiss her.

"Guoer, you wait. Today I will go back and tell my father that he already knew about it and agreed with our marriage. I will mention it to him first, and I will come here tomorrow to ask my mother to agree. Guoer, you are not allowed to go back on your word, you know?" ?” The dream came true, Xiao Nan worried about gains and losses, holding Guo’er’s little hand and asked her to promise.

"As long as father and mother agree, I will not go back on my word." Guo'er said shyly.

Xiao Nan became anxious, and squeezed her hand tightly, "No, they don't agree, and you can't go back on your word."

Guo'er shook her head, and hummed softly: "It's the order of the parents, the words of the matchmaker, you can't coax my parents, how can I marry you?"

Xiao Nan moved his mouth, but he couldn't refute.

Guo'er took the opportunity to withdraw her hand, looked out of the door, and urged him with a blushing face, "Okay, let's go, or uncle will be suspicious."

"I'll tell him tonight, it's okay to doubt." Xiao Nan liked her delicate appearance, and smiled lightly.

Guo'er was thin-skinned, and turned around.
