Ruan Xi heard that Wen Tingzhou came to deliver surprises in person, and ignored Mu Qingling's slightly changed expression. The corners of her brows and eyes were tinged with joy, and her whole body was filled with joy.
At first glance, it looks like a woman in love.
Mu Qingci, the heroine behind Mu Qingling, has been secretly watching Ruan Xi since she came in.
She was very curious and envious of Miss Ruan Si, and her new friend Ruan Sanniang said that her fourth sister had a good life, and she agreed very much in her heart.
Now that Mr. Wen is here and wants to surprise the Fourth Miss, the envy in Mu Qingci's eyes is almost overflowing.
In fact, Ruan Xi was also secretly paying attention to the heroine, and it was easy to find out that the heroine was secretly looking at her and the envy in her eyes.
Unexpectedly, everyone has changed their hearts, and the person they marry has also changed. The heroine still envies her.
Ruan Xi: "..."
At this moment, the aunt Zhang put on a happy smile and said repeatedly.
"Quick, invite Mr. Wen to come in."
A moment later, Wen Tingzhou, dressed in a dark blue brocade robe, slowly entered the flower hall with a warm smile on his lips. He was tall and tall, handsome and elegant, with a natural temperament.
Followed by two familiar men, one is Li Jingcheng, who is male and female, with a beautiful appearance, and the other is Ruan Xi's elder brother, Ruan Yuwen.
Two guards came in behind carrying an item covered with a red cloth.
Wen Tingzhou saluted Mrs. Zhang as a junior.
"I've seen Mrs."
Zhang's face was full of smiles, and his tone was very kind: "We are all a family, Mr. Wen doesn't need to be too polite."
Seeing his son, Mr. Wen and Mr. Li Ge's grandson looking good together, Mrs. Zhang was so happy, and Ruan Xi was much more pleasing to the eye.
Seeing Zhang's amiable appearance, Ruan Xi raised her eyebrows slightly, her eyes glanced at the items covered by the red cloth, a smile of expectation appeared on her lips, and she met Wen Tingzhou's smiling and gentle eyes.
"Ruan Ruan, my surprise is here, I kept you waiting for a long time."
Nguyen Nguyen...
This intimate address made everyone present have different expressions.
"Ahem, Zirun... you... your name is Miss Ruan Ruan, Fourth Miss Ruan Ruan?"
Li Jingcheng reacted the most, he almost choked on his own saliva, and looked at Wen Tingzhou in shock.
Is this still the Zirun he knew
Wen Tingzhou raised his eyebrows, and his smile faded: "Do you have an opinion?"
Li Jingcheng shook his head again and again, and smiled dryly: "No, no."
Ruan Yuwen pretended to be calm, but his heart was not calm. He looked at the fourth sister from time to time, secretly guessing what happened on the day of the flower banquet, and the relationship between the two developed so quickly.
In fact, that's good too, he doesn't have to worry that the fourth sister will be withdrawn by the Wen family suddenly.
The more Mrs. Zhang saw how nice Mr. Wen was to Si Niang, the more uncomfortable she felt. Mu Qingci's eyes were full of surprise, and Miss Shen slightly opened her eyes.
As for Mu Qingling, her face turned green and pale, as if someone had slapped her, her face was burning hot.
"Brother Tingzhou's surprise must be the best."
Ruan Xi caught a glimpse of Mu Qingling's ugly face, and then saw Wen Tingzhou's glamorous appearance, a sly look flashed in his eyes, and he deliberately called Wen Tingzhou's brother. As soon as he said this, Ruan Xi himself blushed unbearably.
Brother Tingzhou...
The two big men, Li Jingcheng and Ruan Yuwen, were shocked at the same time.
Li Jingcheng said cheaply: "Zi Run, why don't you call Miss Ruan Fourth Miss Ruan Ruan, this brother and sister are so worthy, hahahaha!"
Mu Qingci's eyes glowed, and he nodded in agreement, oh my god, the way this ancient man showed his love is so sweet that it's so sweet.
Miss Ruan Si and Mr. Wen are really very affectionate.
All eyes in the flower hall focused on Li Jingcheng.
Ruan Xi: "..."
Sister Ruan Ruan... Ruan Xi's heart trembled, and goosebumps appeared on her arms.
Wen Tingzhou was very helpful to Ruan Ruan's "Brother Tingzhou". When he was in a happy mood to appreciate Ruan Ruan's rare shyness, Li Jingcheng jumped out to make trouble. He glanced at Li Jingcheng lightly, with a dangerous light in his eyes.
Sister Ruan Ruan is also what he can call
Li Jingcheng was taken aback by Wen Tingzhou's look, and his laughter stopped abruptly. At the same time, he realized that Mrs. Chengyi was also there. It was extremely inappropriate for him to make this joke, so he cupped his fists and apologized: "Sorry, Zirun, Fourth Miss Ruan, It's me, Meng Lang."
Wen Tingzhou's voice was flat: "This is not an example." But he thought about sister Ruan Ruan a few times in his heart, um, brother and sister are indeed very compatible.
Ruan Xi smiled at Li Jingcheng, she didn't take this little matter to heart.
Li Jingcheng heaved a sigh of relief.
Mrs. Zhang suppressed the small thoughts in her heart, and said with a smile: "I don't know what the surprise that Mr. Wen gave Si Niang is, can you let me witness it?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone's attention shifted, and their eyes all fell on the items covered by the red cloth.
The eyes of Mu Qingci and Miss Shen were full of curiosity, while Ruan Yuwen's eyes seemed to pass over Miss Shen's face inadvertently, with the corners of his mouth raised.
When Mu Qingling met Ruan Xi's gaze, the corners of her lips suddenly tightened, her hands were clenched unconsciously, her complexion turned green and pale, and she felt like a clown who just uttered nonsense in front of Fourth Miss Ruan.
Judging by Mr. Wen's attitude, Miss Ruan Si's marriage to the Wen family is a matter on the chopping block.
Mu Qingling suddenly regretted provoking Fourth Miss Ruan because of a moment of anger.
But it doesn't help to regret it, she and Miss Ruan Si are on the right track.
Wen Tingzhou glanced at Ruan Ruan, seeing that she didn't care or was upset, he immediately nodded with a smile.
"Can."
Then he ordered the two guards standing next to the item to remove the red cloth.
As soon as the red cloth was lifted, Wen Tingzhou's 'surprise' finally revealed his true colors.
A one-meter-high exquisite rosewood attic came into view. The attic room was well furnished, and there were two naive little animals—a golden pig and a white rabbit.
The moment Mu Qingling saw the small attic, jealousy flashed across her eyes, and her fingernails unconsciously dug into her palms.
She is also a concubine, obviously she is better than Miss Ruan Si in all aspects, why is she not as lucky as her.
What on earth did the handsome and noble Mr. Wen take a fancy to Miss Ruan Si
She took a deep breath, calmed down, squeezed out a smile and praised, "This little attic is really beautiful."
Ms. Shen also nodded in agreement, her eyes full of amazement.
"Brother Tingzhou, I like this surprise very much." Ruan Xi looked at the exquisite structure and meticulous carving of the small attic in front of him, with deep love in his eyes.
The corners of Wen Tingzhou's mouth curled up high.
"As long as you like it."
It is not in vain that he spent so much time carving out this exquisite small attic.
"Zi Run, this small attic is so beautiful. I don't know which master it is. I also want to ask him to carve a beautiful embroidery building for my sister."
Li Jingcheng walked around the small attic, and the more he looked at it, the more he liked it, so he almost reached out to touch it.
"This is a small attic carved by myself." Wen Tingzhou slightly hooked his lips, looking at Ruan Xi with eyes full of smiles.
Li Jingcheng's eyes widened in disbelief.
"Zi Run, are you joking, when did you know how to carve?"
After being shocked, Ruan Yuwen's expression was complicated. If it weren't for the fourth sister, who would have thought that Mr. Wen, who is known as a gentleman, would have a superb wood carving skill.
Not to mention Li Jingcheng, everyone present couldn't believe it, only Mu Qingci's eyes stared like stars.
Mr. Wen is so romantic.
Miss Ruan Si is so happy!
When will she meet such a handsome, gentle and romantic husband.
When Mu Qingci thought that she was just an unfavored concubine in the Mu family, it was as if Mu Qingci had been poured cold water on her.
Well, don't expect too much, and eat other people's dog food.
Wen Tingzhou smiled lightly, and wrote lightly: "I learned from a martial arts master when I was young."
Master Wu... learning woodcarving...
Li Jingcheng: "..."
He stared at Wen Tingzhou without saying a word, and he was so careless in lying, who would believe it.
Ruan Yuwen had the same thought as Li Jingcheng, even Mrs. Zhang didn't believe it, but she didn't show it on her face, and she had to praise Mr. Wen for his superb carving.
Mu Qingling continued to agree with her with an unnatural smile, she always felt that Miss Ruan Si's gaze from time to time seemed to be showing off.
Ruan Xi glanced at Mu Qingling who was imagining something, the corners of her lips raised, and she looked at Wen Tingzhou with trust and joy in her eyes.
"I trust Brother Tingzhou."
The smile in Wen Tingzhou's eyes deepened, and he exuded a cheerful atmosphere.
Li Jingcheng: "..."
Mu Qingci wailed in her heart, and was stuffed with dog food again. She moved her gaze to the small attic, and couldn't help asking curiously.
"It's strange how a pig and a rabbit lived in the attic!"
"What's so strange, Mr. Wen must have a reason for doing this." Mu Qingling has always looked down on this younger sister, and she habitually refuted it when she heard her speak.
Unexpectedly, Li Jingcheng agreed and echoed: "It's really strange, it would be better if a woman lives here."
Mu Qingling's face turned pale and pale, and she couldn't help but glared at Mu Qingci.
Mu Qingci: "..."
After Li Jingcheng finished speaking, he didn't know what he thought of, and suddenly looked at Wen Tingzhou with a strange face, and met Wen Tingzhou's warning eyes that seemed to be a smile but not a smile, and he didn't say anything, but curled his lips in his heart.
Tsk, Zirun is really hiding something.
"I think it's pretty good." Ruan Xi likes the two cute golden pigs and rabbits very much.
If there was a puppet beauty living in the attic, it would be easy to arouse people's imagination. Wen Tingzhou was very considerate.
Ruan Xi silently praised him in her heart.
At this time, Ruan Xi still didn't know the real intention of Wen Tingzhou, the black-bellied wolf, to carve these two animals.
There was a warm smile on the corner of Wen Tingzhou's mouth.
Li Jingcheng glanced at Miss Ruan Si who was unaware of the happy face, and silently slandered Zi Run's scheming heart.
Mrs. Zhang saw Mr. Wen's surprise gift to Si Niang, and said with a tactful smile.
"Mr. Wen has a heart. Even after seeing this exquisite little attic, I can't help but want to keep it for myself. Si Niang is really lucky."
"I think you have something to say, so I won't detain you two here, Si Niang, you take Mr. Wen to Chengxin Garden, so that you can entertain Mr. Wen. You must not treat Mr. Wen slowly, you understand?"
Ruan Xi nodded in response.
"Daughter understands, please rest assured mother."
Mr. Wen nodded slightly to Mrs. Zhang in thanks.
Mrs. Zhang waved her hands and smiled as she watched them leave the flower hall with the small attic covered with red cloth again. Seeing this, Li Jingcheng bid farewell to Mrs. Zhang and hurriedly followed.
Ruan Yuwen: "..."
Mu Qingci silently glanced at Mr. Li who was chasing after him in a hurry. She wouldn't disturb others' love affairs like Mr. Li, so she went to visit Ruan Sanniang who broke her leg.
Mu Qingling secretly heaved a sigh of relief, finally she didn't have to face them anymore.
She hurriedly left the main courtyard under the pretext of visiting Ruan Sanniang.
It's just that Mu Qingci, who was behind, noticed that Mu Qingling's leaving back showed a trace of embarrassment.
…
Chengxin Garden
Wen Tingzhou asked the guards to place the small attic on the big table in the living room, and turned his head to stare at Li Jingcheng who followed without winking.
Li Jingcheng smiled.
Suyu Suzhu, Mama Yang and Mama Lin who heard the movement all focused their eyes on the exquisite small attic.
After seeing the two animals, Mother Lin gave Mr. Wen a meaningful look.
Wen Tingzhou pretended not to see Lin's mother's eyes, and he looked at Ruan Xi with a smile, making a fool of himself.
"Ruan Ruan, there is another big surprise in this small attic."
Ruan Xi's brain was wide open: "What a big surprise, is there any magical mechanism?"
Li Jingcheng pricked up his ears, feeling that it was the right decision for him to follow.
Wen Tingzhou nodded with a smile, "That's right." Ruan Xi became more curious now, and couldn't help but began to grope around the small attic to find the mechanism.
Li Jingcheng is not far behind.
The small attic has been carefully polished and coated, and the surface is very smooth and very comfortable to the touch.
Ruan Xi couldn't put it down and touched the two small animals inside, his eyes kept scanning the whole small attic, lost in thought.
Where is the agency
Suyu, Suzhu, Lin's mother, Yang's mother, and the four of them couldn't help staring at the small attic to see if they could find out the mechanism.
Wen Tingzhou sat on a chair and drank tea gracefully.
After a quarter of an hour, Li Jingcheng gave up and sat directly in front of Wen Tingzhou.
"Zi Run, quickly tell me where the mechanism you got is."
Ruan Xi also looked at Wen Tingzhou expectantly.
Wen Tingzhou didn't hold back anymore, he put down the teacup, walked up to Ruan Xi, and showed her a mysterious smile.
"Ruan Ruan, watch it."
Wen Tingzhou moved his hand to the lower left corner of the base of the small attic and pressed it, and suddenly four small wooden strips popped up. Obviously, these small wooden strips were traps. Wen Tingzhou pulled the first small wooden strip to trap.
The base rattled.
The golden pig in the attic suddenly started to move in a human-like manner... doing various movements quite cutely.
The people in the room were dumbfounded.
Ruan Xi's eyes were wide open, his face full of disbelief.
"so amazing!"
"Miss, do you think this golden pig is practicing?" Suyu exclaimed.
As soon as this was said, everyone felt that it was true.
Li Jingcheng saw that the golden pig was practicing at the first sight, and he was too shocked to speak at this moment.
Wen Tingzhou bowed his head and moved closer to Ruan Xi's cheek, his clear and deep voice revealed a hint of a smile.
"Ruan Ruan, do you like this big surprise?"
Ruan Xi nodded again and again, his eyes never leaving the golden pig playing martial arts: "I like it, I like it so much."
Wen Tingzhou smiled lowly, feeling quite happy.
At this time, after the golden pig had finished performing martial arts, Wen Tingzhou pulled the second small wooden stick, and there was a crackling sound from the base of the small attic. The white rabbit moved, and it danced around the golden pig...
Ruan Xi and the others were dumbfounded again.
After the rabbit danced, it squatted in front of the golden pig and did not move. Ruan Xi couldn't wait to pull the third small wooden stick.
The golden pig moved, and it hugged the white rabbit with its two front hooves.
Li Jingcheng: "..."
He glanced at Wen Tingzhou, who looked like a gentleman, and clicked his tongue a few times.
You really can't tell what you look like.
Ruan Xi chuckled, and joked, "The pig and the rabbit are actually in love with each other. Brother Tingzhou, how did you come up with that?"
"Isn't this obvious?" Wen Tingzhou said meaningfully with a smile in his eyes.
Ruan Xi looked at Wen Tingzhou speechlessly, but did not understand what he meant.
Wen Tingzhou raised the corners of his lips slightly.
Mother Lin glanced at Fourth Miss who still didn't understand what was going on, and the corners of her mouth twitched.
She glanced at Mama Yang, and seeing her knowing expression, she knew she had guessed it.
"Brother Tingzhou, what will this last mechanism demonstrate, won't it be a pig and a white rabbit paying homage?" Ruan Xi didn't continue the topic just now, she was more interested in the mechanism of the small attic, and once again her mind was wide open.
Suyu and Suzhu's eyes lit up.
It's possible what the lady said.
"I think it's very likely that the golden pig and the white rabbit entered the bridal chamber, hahaha!"
Li Jingcheng looked at Miss Ruan Si's high spirits, and he was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, and he was joking.
Ruan Xi: "..."
Very well, Li Jingcheng's brain hole is bigger than hers, but she thinks this possibility is extremely small.
Brother Tingzhou definitely wouldn't do that.
Wen Tingzhou glanced at Li Jingcheng lightly, and said calmly: "The last mechanism is recovery."
A look of disappointment flashed in Li Jingcheng's eyes, and he clicked his tongue.
"How cowardly!"
Ruan Xi: "..."
Wen Tingzhou: "..."
I really want to shoot Li Jingcheng to death!
Li Jingcheng patted his forehead suddenly, pretending to be surprised and said something.
"Oh, if I remember correctly, Zirun, you were born in the year of Hai, and Miss Ruan Si, was your birth year in the year of Mao?"
As soon as these words came out, there was a moment of silence in the room.
Ruan Xi unconsciously looked at the embracing pigs and rabbits in the attic, and thought of something, her cheeks instantly flushed red.
