One sentence made Lin Ran's hopeless legs go limp, and she held on to the door frame to stand firm. She looked at the figure behind the screen in embarrassment, and explained in a low voice: "Fuyunlou, I told you before."
Behind the screen was a graceful and graceful figure. Lin Ran felt his heart itch, and hurriedly said, "Go and ask Jiuniang, I didn't touch anyone, just trust me."
The two were separated by a screen, so they couldn't see each other's expression clearly, only saw the shadow, Lin Ran couldn't hold back his temper, and went around the screen to see Mu Liang.
As soon as he moved his feet, he heard Ah Liang's cold and displeased tone: "Go take a bath and wash your hair well."
Mu Liang was obsessed with cleanliness, Lin Ran smelled the smell on his body after he realized it, and was quite disgusted with himself, so he couldn't help but take a look through the screen, and said timidly: "Then I'll go take a bath, don't be angry .”
She touched her forehead childishly, quickly went to the bathroom to take a shower, washed herself from head to toe, and wiped her hair half dry before she dared to go back to the room.
At this time, Mu Liang came out of the back room, flipped through the accounts before the case, and when he heard the voice, he said first: "Why did you build the warm pavilion?"
Lin Ran's foot slipped, and he stumbled directly. He jumped forward and fell down. Mu Liang raised his head, with the same expression as before, and said, "Why are you panicking? Are you going to hide in the golden house? Hiding in the Fuyun Tower Which girl?"
Patriarch Lin's unpromising appearance made the maids in the corridor laugh, and after they looked at each other, they took the initiative to retreat from the corridor, guarding the courtyard gate, and not letting others disturb the reunion of the Patriarch and his wife.
Lin Ran felt aggrieved, rubbed his painful knee, slowly got up, and said honestly, "I want to hide you."
Hearing this, Mu Liang's hands flicking through the accounts stopped, and he raised his eyelids to look at her again: "This room is not enough? There is not much money on the books, where did you get the money to build the attic?"
She came back at dusk yesterday, passed by Lin Ran, and asked about everything that happened in the mansion after she returned to the mansion. The other things are understandable, except for one thing, she was puzzled about the building of the attic.
Lin Ran is not an unreasonable person, and she would not waste money to build a loft for enjoyment. She thought about it all night and couldn't figure it out, so she couldn't help asking when she first met.
Her tone was not kind, and Lin Ran was so frightened that she didn't dare to approach her. Knowing that she couldn't tell the reason, she replied in a low voice, "The money from Fuyun Tower."
Mu Liang frowned: "There are countless pavilions and pavilions in the mansion, and there are also warm pavilions. What do you want to do?" Maybe after being separated from Lin Ran for a long time, I felt a little dazed and panicked.
"Don't attack me, it's just an attic, why are you so angry?" Lin Ran approached with small steps, sat down next to her, and glanced at the account, which was the money she estimated for the steward to build the attic calculate.
What she was thinking, Mu Liang knew at a glance, and handed her the account: "A loft needs so much money?"
Lin Ran shut her mouth tightly, shook her head and said nothing, A Liang would definitely not agree to remake, she thought quickly in her mind, and after a few breaths she said concerned: "I didn't tell you not to come back, why did you come back, and, You, did you come back alone?"
She felt guilty, looked at Mu Liang with erratic eyes, lowered her eyes to look at her lower abdomen, then quickly raised her head, not daring to look again.
Lin Ran hesitated to speak, and seemed to have a ghost in his heart, which made Mu Ran feel cold: "You don't want me to come back?"
"No, I miss you, I miss you very much. It's one thing to just miss you, but another thing to be afraid of your danger. Ah Liang, it's not safe here, and you shouldn't come back. In two months, you and Xinyang His Highness came back together, I, I'm afraid, I'm afraid..." Lin Ran's tone became softer, and finally he snorted like a mosquito: "I'm afraid I won't be able to protect you."
"First tell me what is the use of this attic of yours. If you can't tell it, you will raze it to the ground and rebuild the garden." Mu Liang ignored her pity and poked her on the forehead: "You have made Fuyunlou your home? "
"Don't be in a hurry to settle accounts with me. Why did you come back without saying anything in advance?" Lin Ran held her fingertips and approached her with a playful smile, "How are you doing?"
She was so close and sticky that Mu Liang's heart softened, and he said softly: "I must be fine, but you, okay?"
I regretted it when I said it, and I lingered in Fuyun Tower every day, and it was good if it was not good.
Lin Ran happily hugged her and rubbed her chin: "Ah Liang, I miss you."
A few simple words to confide her thoughts, especially those thoughts that cannot be sent in letters, and even more difficult to write in words. All these days, she has been looking forward to Ah Liang's sudden appearance in front of her.
When going to bed at night, I always touch the bed outside from time to time, thinking about what A Liang is doing at this time, whether she has ever slept, whether she has ever been safe, and whether she has ever missed her.
Thinking of this, I tossed and turned, always thinking of the old days, when they slept together every night, hugged each other, and could see her when they woke up.Those days suddenly became a dream, and nothing remained, even Ah Liang's breath disappeared in the years.
Now that people are in front of them, thousands of words are useless, the joy is real, and the worry is also real, especially when the new emperor has just ascended the throne, he dare not do anything to her, but it will be different when Ah Liang comes back.He could turn around to face Ah Liang, and the planning of the previous days would have to start all over again.
Mu Liang didn't answer, she continued to hug her, her brows were deeply frowned, "Ah Liang, can you go back?"
"I'll leave her at His Highness Xinyang's place, and nothing will happen." Mu Liang spoke softly, trying to convince Lin Ran, touching her thin cheek with his fingertips, he couldn't help feeling distressed, and coaxed in a low voice: "Nothing will happen, His Highness Xinyang will be back in a month or so."
"Chen Zhichen can even kill his own mother. You can't expect him to do benevolent things. Don't show your face." Lin Ran was still upset and anxious. Looking at A Liang's face as before, she couldn't help sighing, "A Liang, I am Deliberately not saving Emperor Ming, let Chen Zhichen sit on the throne."
At that time, if Xuanyi had agreed to Changle and cooperated with Qin Wanli, he might not have lost.But after talking with Emperor Ming, she dismissed the idea. Emperor Ming is arrogant, and if he doesn't experience despair, he will not know repentance.
She was uncertain, she didn't know whether it was right or wrong, and she was also worried. If His Highness Xinyang came back and could not solve Luoyang's difficulties, then she would be a sinner.
Lin Ran hasn't shown any signs of fragility for a long time. She is the unruly head of the Lin family outside, spends money like water, and often talks with people with a smile on her face. After a long time, she almost forgot her original face.
She is fragile, how can Mu Liang look cold again.
"I think you should have your own reasons, and fight for the Luo family's chance to rehabilitate. If you do it, you will have no regrets." Mu Liang stretched out his arms to embrace her, patted her on the back, recalled the situation in Luoyang City, and sighed .
Lin Ran didn't hide anything, and told her the general situation.
"When Xinyang was stationed by the river, Emperor Ming invited me to stay in the palace for a short stay. In fact, I knew it was not a short stay, but a prison. Then I used a plan to escape." Lin Ran pursed her lips, raising such a big rabbit, Poisoned to death with my own hands, I also feel uncomfortable.
Mu Liang listened quietly, and put his hand on the back of her neck, "I don't know these things outside."
"After I escaped, I impeached King Ping for wantonly spreading rumors. The Emperor Ming ordered him to be grounded in order to appease His Highness Xinyang. I just thought I could wait until His Highness Xinyang came back in peace, and I didn't want King Ping to usurp the throne. The plan was offered by the Zhao family. Concubine Xian passed on the word to me that Zhao Fuyun is related to Qian Qi, and I am guessing that the grain and grass of Qian Qi are supplied by Zhao family."
"I asked someone to check the details of the Zhao family. They are all ordinary merchants with a solid family background. If they participate in the seizure of the heirloom, they must be not thoughtful enough. According to what you say, the Zhao family cannot be allowed to grow in Luoyang." Mu Liang murmured, seeing Lin Ran's frowning puzzlement, he persuaded him: "You might as well treat the Zhao family as members of the former Qi Dynasty. The new emperor's previous behavior was to collude with foreign countries. This emperor's name is not justified."
"Yeah." Lin Ran responded lightly, continued to rub her chin, and thought of something else, "Ah Liang, is she cute?"
"Just like you, you are not afraid of life. His Highness Xinyang took her away with a mink." Mu Liang smiled, remembering the appearance of Xinyang taking her away. The mink was in her hands, and the little boy wanted her to hug her. The mink was not there. , ignore others.
Lin Ran frowned: "It's useless to coax her away with a mink." She complained, with joy in her eyes, making Mu Liang dumbfounded, "When you came to the palace, you gave me the token of the Lin family. Nothing was exchanged."
When I first saw Lin Ran, she had a token hanging around her neck, just treating it as her treasure, how could she know how to give it away directly, without blinking her eyes.But when grandma took it, she stared and cursed.
I don't know if it's fate, or Lin Si taught her.
Lin Ran couldn't remember these past events, and now that he's back, he naturally wanted to get bored, "Ah Liang, I miss you."
His eyes were hot, making Mu Liang's heart feel hot. He turned his eyes sideways and said with an excuse: "What's the matter with the attic? If you can't explain it clearly, go and kneel down to your abacus."
Lin Ran was startled, and forgot about this matter. She originally wanted to finish building the Chunzi Building before Ah Liang came back, but she didn't think of any words or reasons.
She was very confident, she didn't want to be caught, she racked her brains to think of words, she couldn't just kneel down and make calculations as soon as Ah Liang came back, she tried to lie: "I think when the child comes back, naturally I want a house."
This reason is extremely lame, even if you tell it to a naive child, a naive child will not believe it.
Mu Liang smiled lightly, the faint sarcasm made Lin Ran's face burn, and insisted: "Really."
"You tell Xiaoxiaoguai, do you think she will believe you?" Mu Liang asked her back, the hand on the back of her neck unconsciously moved to her ear, gently stroking the 'lying' bird Ear, "Lin Ran, I think your intentions are wrong."
Lin Ran hadn't been touched by her ears for a long time, and she didn't struggle, instead she said, "When did I ever feel normal towards you?"
As soon as the words came out, Mu Liang understood a little bit, but he was ambiguous, and asked in confusion: "What does it have to do with me?"
Lin Ran didn't answer, but instead kissed her eyebrows and eyes, a delicate and slow kiss slid over the tip of her nose and landed on the corner of her lips.
The person who hadn't been intimate for a long time, with impatience, could not wait to stick out the tip of his tongue as soon as he touched the soft corner of his lips, Mu Liang subconsciously backed away.
Behind her was just a couch, the hard wood made it impossible for her to retreat, blocking her way back.
The lingering kiss made her mouth dry and short of breath, Lin Ran stopped by touching her forehead, her eyes were filled with obvious lust, "Ah Liang..."
After calling softly, Mu Liang said softly, "Yes."
Obviously it was just a simple response, but Lin Ran felt a different kind of encouragement. She stepped forward and pressed against A Liang: "You came back yesterday, why didn't you tell me?"
"Of course I want to see what you are doing in the mansion, and I don't want the maid to tell you that you have gone to Fuyun Tower." Mu Liang's breath was slightly stagnant, with ups and downs, his cheeks were bright red, like rouge, just perfect.
"So you're jealous, why don't you go to Fuyun Tower to catch me?" Lin Ran chuckled, his gaze inadvertently fell on her slightly open neckline, and his fingertips slid across the chin, seemingly missing something. over that skin.
Mu Liang trembled slightly.
She seemed to feel something was wrong, thinking of the things in the Fuyun Tower, she felt ashamed and angry: "You learned it in the Fuyun Tower?"
Lin Ran didn't answer, and kissed the skin under the neckline. Mu Liang trembled even more. She was shy, and a love affair she hadn't experienced for many days always made people feel a little timid.
In Lin Ran's eyes, her timidity was like wanting to welcome or rejecting, and she didn't want to talk about etiquette and discord. place to store.
She was more gentle than before, which relieved Mu Liang's slightly fearful heart. She tried to relax herself, and looked up at Lin Ran: "You, you..."
He hesitated to speak, and added a bit of charm to the gentle atmosphere. The green mountains and dew made people wanton.
The small couch is not as warm and soft as a bed, and in summer, there is only a layer of summer mats, which makes the skin ache, Mu Liang unconsciously moved her body, and her white skin was stained pink.
Lin Ran's gentleness made Mu Liang forget the slight discomfort and pain. She hadn't had sex for a long time, and she was weak, and her repeated begging made Lin Ran stop. She found a thin blanket, and the two lay down next to each other.
Mu Liang, who was trying to settle accounts with her, didn't have the energy to bring up the attic again. She didn't see the blueprint last night, only saw the budget money, and guessed that the attic must be extraordinary.
It's just that I didn't think deeply about how unusual it was.The thin calluses on Lin Ran's palms slid across her skin, causing her to suddenly come to her senses, and she got up to put on her clothes.
Lin Ran refused to let her go, and held down the hand she was about to hold up, "They know that I will catch up on sleep before noon, and they won't disturb me at will."
"You don't sleep at night in the Fuyun Building?" Mu Liang's tone was low, and even his face changed. Lin Ran hurriedly explained: "Jiu Niang knows what I did, she won't lie to you."
Mu Liang didn't return, and lay down next to her, his brows and eyes stained with fatigue, Lin Ran rubbed her, temporarily put away those troublesome things, and hugged her tightly.
After hugging for a while, she kissed Mu Liang's earlobe: "Do you miss me?"
"En." Mu Liang responded to her.Lin Ran was not satisfied, "What do you mean?"
"I miss you." Mu Liang's voice was very soft, the wind rustled through the grass, Lin Ran was very satisfied, and pressed her forehead again: "I miss you too, very much."
After finishing speaking, his hands became restless again. Mu Liang realized that it was already too late.
She was forced to face Lin Ran squarely, but she was powerless to refuse, allowing her to do whatever she wanted until she had no strength to speak.
****
The news of Mu Liang's return to the mansion spread like wildfire, and Lin Ran could not be seen leaving the mansion, let alone going to Fuyun Tower.
From then on, everyone in Luoyang city knew that Patriarch Lin was a little wife and slave, and he never mentioned it again after making jokes.Compared with the incident of the little wife and slave, the reopening of the Lin family's embroidery workshop is even more shocking.
After the owner of the dandy family ruined his family fortune, Princess Mu returned to the mansion to clean up the mess, and reopened the original embroidery workshop in one day. The price was the same as last year, which was much lower than that of the Zhao family. to cheer.
In comparison, the three or two guests in front of the Zhao Family Embroidery Workshop can tell whether they are high or low at the first sight.
When Mu Liang reopened the embroidery workshop, Lin Ran didn't go out in the mansion. After all, Ah Liang's return to reopen the embroidery workshop is the best name.It doesn't matter if others think of her as a concubine slave or a prodigal son. Fame can't be used as a money envoy, and it can't prolong your life, so why should you care.
She thought very openly, staying in the mansion and not going out, staring at the craftsmen making attics, she should also avoid Xindi's eyeliner.
After the foundation was destroyed, it had to be rebuilt. Lin Ran didn't care about money, but about time. She sat in front of the foundation wearing a straw hat, still clutching blueprints.
In summer, the heat is unstoppable, watermelons are frozen in the well water to cool off the craftsmen, and she herself holds the ice cup made by Ah Liang.
Fang ate two mouthfuls, and Changle rushed over after hearing the news.
The two of them sat under the shade of a tree and set up two couches. Lin Ran was wearing a blue thin robe with the cuffs rolled up, revealing a pair of pure white wrists. There was a large green leaf on top of her head.
Chang Le came almost the next day, and without greeting, he ate icemelon in his hand and said, "May I borrow some money?"
"The new emperor just turned my place upside down. Could it be that your princess mansion also wants to be turned upside down?" Lin Ran reminded her.
After the maid served the melons and fruits, she was waved back by Chang Le, and there was a knocking sound from the foundation from time to time. Chang Le watched the craftsmen beating from a distance, "Don't be afraid of him, the Princess Mansion has not been repaired, and another piece of land will be turned over." And no one cares."
"Alright, it's up to you, I don't have any money, you can ask Ah Liang to borrow it." Lin Ran quit, thinking of Qin Wan, he said: "You might as well wait a little longer, after the Queen Mother returns to the Zichen Palace, you can borrow it again." Not too late."
The coldness in Chang Le's eyes deepened, and there was indifference in his tone: "Will she return to Zichen Palace?"
Lin Ran opened his eyelids and looked at her. According to Xinyang's temperament, Emperor Ming would definitely return to the Zichen Palace to regain power, and then he would avenge the Luo family.
"If she doesn't return, you enter the Zichen Palace to rule?"
"I..." Chang Le was speechless, what will happen in the future, I can't think of it now, but Mu Liang is back, presumably Xin Yang has great confidence in the situation in the city.She sighed and said: "No matter what, I'll go to Ah Liang to borrow some money."
"It's up to you." Lin Ran put the straw hat over his head, and planned to take a nap as soon as he closed his eyes, Chang Le went to the flower hall to wait for Mu Liang.
Mu Liang didn't come back until dusk, and he hadn't seen Chang Le for a long time, and he wasn't as casual as Lin Ran and Chang Le. They exchanged a few words before getting into the topic.
She was in a bit of a dilemma, "It takes a lot of money to reopen the embroidery workshop, and the family is struggling. I'm afraid it will disappoint His Highness."
"You don't have any silver either?" Chang Le was surprised, and somewhat suspicious of Mu Liang's words. The Lin family's business spreads everywhere in Xinjin, and it's not just a city of Luoyang.
"It is true that the cities in the south of the Yangtze River have suffered a lot of losses. You have seen the shops in Luoyang City. Lin Ran has no intention of operating them, and they have closed them all. I have no choice but to wait a little longer. When things stabilize, I will definitely give the rest of the money to the family. Send it." Mu Liang said tactfully.
The two of them are of the same generation, and Mu Liang did not follow Lin Ran's generation to call his little aunt, nor does he have Lin Ran's respect, just like in the past, she said everything she could say, and she refused to borrow it if she couldn't afford it.
Chang Le is not a ruthless person either. Thinking of the situation of the Lin family, it is indeed not as good as before. After thinking for a moment, she got up and left without explaining what she was going to do.
After she left, Mu Liang sat alone in the living room, and went outside today to listen to a lot of things about the Zhao family.
A few years ago, she was still humble and respectful. After the new emperor ascended the throne, she changed completely. It was hard for people not to doubt her. After she thought about it deeply, she asked someone to invite Lin Ran to discuss with her about hosting a banquet.
Lin Ran knew that she liked to be pure and pure, so when he suddenly heard her throwing a banquet, he didn't know what it meant.
Mu Liang explained: "I'll try Zhao Fuyun's bottom line."
"How do you try?" Lin Ran was puzzled, she had always been in harmony with Zhao's family, and she refused to go to the Zhao family's banquet, why did Ah Liang do the opposite.
"It's just a normal banquet, so don't be nervous." Mu Liang was extremely calm, and he sat down with her, and when he saw the bruises in front of her eyes, he reached out and touched her, feeling sorry for her: "Since I'm back, I will naturally take Mrs. Lin's If you are doing business in your identity, you should take a few days off."
She was gentle, and Lin Ran let go of his emotions, "Ah Liang, Zhao Fuyun is too cunning, be careful."
"I know, no matter how treacherous she is, she can't beat Emperor Ming." Mu Liang comforted her, and seeing that she was still frowning, she said with a smile: "It's nothing, you might as well think about the child's name, whether the surname is Mu or Chen, it's up to you Decide."
"I don't have any surnames. The father of the Lin family saved me in trouble. Naturally, the surname should be Lin." Lin Ran said frankly that the surname Mu and Chen are not as good as those with the surname Lin.
When she made a decision, Mu Liang didn't care to ask, "Listen to you."
Lin Ran raised his head and looked at her beautiful face, "Ah Liang, I want to go out tonight."
"Where are you going?" Mu Liang's heart tightened. Ever since she came back, Lin Ran didn't want to go out, let alone go out at night. After thinking for a while, she worried, "Is it dangerous?"
"No, I'll be back before midnight. If anyone comes, just say I'm taking a rest and explain to you when I come back." Lin Ran's face darkened, thinking of her visit to Fuyun Tower at night, he quickly explained: " I'm not going to Fuyun Tower, I'm doing serious business."
Mu Liang sighed, "I'd rather you go to Fuyunlou to play around."
In terms of danger and playing with other women, she would choose the latter, not wanting Lin Ran to be in danger.
She sighed, which made Lin Ran's heart twitch, and said depressedly, "I'm wholeheartedly devoted to you, and I have never changed my mind."
Mu Liang hugged her and stopped talking.
Lin Ran stayed for a while and was about to leave. She changed into dark clothes, which Mu Liang personally changed for her, removing the jade hairpin from her bun.After leaving for so long, Lin Ran's brows and eyes widened, and when he looked at him closely, his childishness faded away, and he became more feminine.
She stepped up and kissed those eyebrows, then hugged him tightly in her arms, and gently rubbed her side face: "Come back early, I'll wait for you."
"Will you wash yourself and wait for me?" Lin Ran teased her, trying to make her feel at ease, with a teasing tone in his words.
Mu Liang didn't care, and knew her habits, only when she was in danger, Lin Ran would tease her with jokes, and only at this time did he raise his heart.
Everyone has their own responsibilities. Lin Ran is different. She will not stay under her protection for the rest of her life. No matter how strong she is, she is only eighteen or nineteen years old. How can she really do everything properly.
She lightly brushed the broken hair from Lin Ran's temples, revealing the faint scar on her forehead. Although she didn't know how it came about, it must have been very painful.Gently rubbing the scar with his fingertips, he whispered: "I have no extravagant hopes for you, just come back intact, you can do it?"
"Yes, I can definitely do it." Lin Ran immediately promised, and when the outside was about to get dark, he kissed her on the lips, turned and left.
Mu Liang was very worried, and after sighing a few times, he went to the study to meet with the steward to discuss the matter of the embroidery workshop.
When the sky was completely dark, the maidservant brought in the dinner, and the steward retreated to have dinner.Mu Liang relaxed, feeling empty in his heart, full of silence.
The author has something to say: Lin Ran is justified: Look, I am not kneeling, I am strong!
I didn't plan to add more, but many people shouted to add...
I added it, and lost more than half of the manuscript.

Thank you very much for your support, I will continue to work hard!
Behind the screen was a graceful and graceful figure. Lin Ran felt his heart itch, and hurriedly said, "Go and ask Jiuniang, I didn't touch anyone, just trust me."
The two were separated by a screen, so they couldn't see each other's expression clearly, only saw the shadow, Lin Ran couldn't hold back his temper, and went around the screen to see Mu Liang.
As soon as he moved his feet, he heard Ah Liang's cold and displeased tone: "Go take a bath and wash your hair well."
Mu Liang was obsessed with cleanliness, Lin Ran smelled the smell on his body after he realized it, and was quite disgusted with himself, so he couldn't help but take a look through the screen, and said timidly: "Then I'll go take a bath, don't be angry .”
She touched her forehead childishly, quickly went to the bathroom to take a shower, washed herself from head to toe, and wiped her hair half dry before she dared to go back to the room.
At this time, Mu Liang came out of the back room, flipped through the accounts before the case, and when he heard the voice, he said first: "Why did you build the warm pavilion?"
Lin Ran's foot slipped, and he stumbled directly. He jumped forward and fell down. Mu Liang raised his head, with the same expression as before, and said, "Why are you panicking? Are you going to hide in the golden house? Hiding in the Fuyun Tower Which girl?"
Patriarch Lin's unpromising appearance made the maids in the corridor laugh, and after they looked at each other, they took the initiative to retreat from the corridor, guarding the courtyard gate, and not letting others disturb the reunion of the Patriarch and his wife.
Lin Ran felt aggrieved, rubbed his painful knee, slowly got up, and said honestly, "I want to hide you."
Hearing this, Mu Liang's hands flicking through the accounts stopped, and he raised his eyelids to look at her again: "This room is not enough? There is not much money on the books, where did you get the money to build the attic?"
She came back at dusk yesterday, passed by Lin Ran, and asked about everything that happened in the mansion after she returned to the mansion. The other things are understandable, except for one thing, she was puzzled about the building of the attic.
Lin Ran is not an unreasonable person, and she would not waste money to build a loft for enjoyment. She thought about it all night and couldn't figure it out, so she couldn't help asking when she first met.
Her tone was not kind, and Lin Ran was so frightened that she didn't dare to approach her. Knowing that she couldn't tell the reason, she replied in a low voice, "The money from Fuyun Tower."
Mu Liang frowned: "There are countless pavilions and pavilions in the mansion, and there are also warm pavilions. What do you want to do?" Maybe after being separated from Lin Ran for a long time, I felt a little dazed and panicked.
"Don't attack me, it's just an attic, why are you so angry?" Lin Ran approached with small steps, sat down next to her, and glanced at the account, which was the money she estimated for the steward to build the attic calculate.
What she was thinking, Mu Liang knew at a glance, and handed her the account: "A loft needs so much money?"
Lin Ran shut her mouth tightly, shook her head and said nothing, A Liang would definitely not agree to remake, she thought quickly in her mind, and after a few breaths she said concerned: "I didn't tell you not to come back, why did you come back, and, You, did you come back alone?"
She felt guilty, looked at Mu Liang with erratic eyes, lowered her eyes to look at her lower abdomen, then quickly raised her head, not daring to look again.
Lin Ran hesitated to speak, and seemed to have a ghost in his heart, which made Mu Ran feel cold: "You don't want me to come back?"
"No, I miss you, I miss you very much. It's one thing to just miss you, but another thing to be afraid of your danger. Ah Liang, it's not safe here, and you shouldn't come back. In two months, you and Xinyang His Highness came back together, I, I'm afraid, I'm afraid..." Lin Ran's tone became softer, and finally he snorted like a mosquito: "I'm afraid I won't be able to protect you."
"First tell me what is the use of this attic of yours. If you can't tell it, you will raze it to the ground and rebuild the garden." Mu Liang ignored her pity and poked her on the forehead: "You have made Fuyunlou your home? "
"Don't be in a hurry to settle accounts with me. Why did you come back without saying anything in advance?" Lin Ran held her fingertips and approached her with a playful smile, "How are you doing?"
She was so close and sticky that Mu Liang's heart softened, and he said softly: "I must be fine, but you, okay?"
I regretted it when I said it, and I lingered in Fuyun Tower every day, and it was good if it was not good.
Lin Ran happily hugged her and rubbed her chin: "Ah Liang, I miss you."
A few simple words to confide her thoughts, especially those thoughts that cannot be sent in letters, and even more difficult to write in words. All these days, she has been looking forward to Ah Liang's sudden appearance in front of her.
When going to bed at night, I always touch the bed outside from time to time, thinking about what A Liang is doing at this time, whether she has ever slept, whether she has ever been safe, and whether she has ever missed her.
Thinking of this, I tossed and turned, always thinking of the old days, when they slept together every night, hugged each other, and could see her when they woke up.Those days suddenly became a dream, and nothing remained, even Ah Liang's breath disappeared in the years.
Now that people are in front of them, thousands of words are useless, the joy is real, and the worry is also real, especially when the new emperor has just ascended the throne, he dare not do anything to her, but it will be different when Ah Liang comes back.He could turn around to face Ah Liang, and the planning of the previous days would have to start all over again.
Mu Liang didn't answer, she continued to hug her, her brows were deeply frowned, "Ah Liang, can you go back?"
"I'll leave her at His Highness Xinyang's place, and nothing will happen." Mu Liang spoke softly, trying to convince Lin Ran, touching her thin cheek with his fingertips, he couldn't help feeling distressed, and coaxed in a low voice: "Nothing will happen, His Highness Xinyang will be back in a month or so."
"Chen Zhichen can even kill his own mother. You can't expect him to do benevolent things. Don't show your face." Lin Ran was still upset and anxious. Looking at A Liang's face as before, she couldn't help sighing, "A Liang, I am Deliberately not saving Emperor Ming, let Chen Zhichen sit on the throne."
At that time, if Xuanyi had agreed to Changle and cooperated with Qin Wanli, he might not have lost.But after talking with Emperor Ming, she dismissed the idea. Emperor Ming is arrogant, and if he doesn't experience despair, he will not know repentance.
She was uncertain, she didn't know whether it was right or wrong, and she was also worried. If His Highness Xinyang came back and could not solve Luoyang's difficulties, then she would be a sinner.
Lin Ran hasn't shown any signs of fragility for a long time. She is the unruly head of the Lin family outside, spends money like water, and often talks with people with a smile on her face. After a long time, she almost forgot her original face.
She is fragile, how can Mu Liang look cold again.
"I think you should have your own reasons, and fight for the Luo family's chance to rehabilitate. If you do it, you will have no regrets." Mu Liang stretched out his arms to embrace her, patted her on the back, recalled the situation in Luoyang City, and sighed .
Lin Ran didn't hide anything, and told her the general situation.
"When Xinyang was stationed by the river, Emperor Ming invited me to stay in the palace for a short stay. In fact, I knew it was not a short stay, but a prison. Then I used a plan to escape." Lin Ran pursed her lips, raising such a big rabbit, Poisoned to death with my own hands, I also feel uncomfortable.
Mu Liang listened quietly, and put his hand on the back of her neck, "I don't know these things outside."
"After I escaped, I impeached King Ping for wantonly spreading rumors. The Emperor Ming ordered him to be grounded in order to appease His Highness Xinyang. I just thought I could wait until His Highness Xinyang came back in peace, and I didn't want King Ping to usurp the throne. The plan was offered by the Zhao family. Concubine Xian passed on the word to me that Zhao Fuyun is related to Qian Qi, and I am guessing that the grain and grass of Qian Qi are supplied by Zhao family."
"I asked someone to check the details of the Zhao family. They are all ordinary merchants with a solid family background. If they participate in the seizure of the heirloom, they must be not thoughtful enough. According to what you say, the Zhao family cannot be allowed to grow in Luoyang." Mu Liang murmured, seeing Lin Ran's frowning puzzlement, he persuaded him: "You might as well treat the Zhao family as members of the former Qi Dynasty. The new emperor's previous behavior was to collude with foreign countries. This emperor's name is not justified."
"Yeah." Lin Ran responded lightly, continued to rub her chin, and thought of something else, "Ah Liang, is she cute?"
"Just like you, you are not afraid of life. His Highness Xinyang took her away with a mink." Mu Liang smiled, remembering the appearance of Xinyang taking her away. The mink was in her hands, and the little boy wanted her to hug her. The mink was not there. , ignore others.
Lin Ran frowned: "It's useless to coax her away with a mink." She complained, with joy in her eyes, making Mu Liang dumbfounded, "When you came to the palace, you gave me the token of the Lin family. Nothing was exchanged."
When I first saw Lin Ran, she had a token hanging around her neck, just treating it as her treasure, how could she know how to give it away directly, without blinking her eyes.But when grandma took it, she stared and cursed.
I don't know if it's fate, or Lin Si taught her.
Lin Ran couldn't remember these past events, and now that he's back, he naturally wanted to get bored, "Ah Liang, I miss you."
His eyes were hot, making Mu Liang's heart feel hot. He turned his eyes sideways and said with an excuse: "What's the matter with the attic? If you can't explain it clearly, go and kneel down to your abacus."
Lin Ran was startled, and forgot about this matter. She originally wanted to finish building the Chunzi Building before Ah Liang came back, but she didn't think of any words or reasons.
She was very confident, she didn't want to be caught, she racked her brains to think of words, she couldn't just kneel down and make calculations as soon as Ah Liang came back, she tried to lie: "I think when the child comes back, naturally I want a house."
This reason is extremely lame, even if you tell it to a naive child, a naive child will not believe it.
Mu Liang smiled lightly, the faint sarcasm made Lin Ran's face burn, and insisted: "Really."
"You tell Xiaoxiaoguai, do you think she will believe you?" Mu Liang asked her back, the hand on the back of her neck unconsciously moved to her ear, gently stroking the 'lying' bird Ear, "Lin Ran, I think your intentions are wrong."
Lin Ran hadn't been touched by her ears for a long time, and she didn't struggle, instead she said, "When did I ever feel normal towards you?"
As soon as the words came out, Mu Liang understood a little bit, but he was ambiguous, and asked in confusion: "What does it have to do with me?"
Lin Ran didn't answer, but instead kissed her eyebrows and eyes, a delicate and slow kiss slid over the tip of her nose and landed on the corner of her lips.
The person who hadn't been intimate for a long time, with impatience, could not wait to stick out the tip of his tongue as soon as he touched the soft corner of his lips, Mu Liang subconsciously backed away.
Behind her was just a couch, the hard wood made it impossible for her to retreat, blocking her way back.
The lingering kiss made her mouth dry and short of breath, Lin Ran stopped by touching her forehead, her eyes were filled with obvious lust, "Ah Liang..."
After calling softly, Mu Liang said softly, "Yes."
Obviously it was just a simple response, but Lin Ran felt a different kind of encouragement. She stepped forward and pressed against A Liang: "You came back yesterday, why didn't you tell me?"
"Of course I want to see what you are doing in the mansion, and I don't want the maid to tell you that you have gone to Fuyun Tower." Mu Liang's breath was slightly stagnant, with ups and downs, his cheeks were bright red, like rouge, just perfect.
"So you're jealous, why don't you go to Fuyun Tower to catch me?" Lin Ran chuckled, his gaze inadvertently fell on her slightly open neckline, and his fingertips slid across the chin, seemingly missing something. over that skin.
Mu Liang trembled slightly.
She seemed to feel something was wrong, thinking of the things in the Fuyun Tower, she felt ashamed and angry: "You learned it in the Fuyun Tower?"
Lin Ran didn't answer, and kissed the skin under the neckline. Mu Liang trembled even more. She was shy, and a love affair she hadn't experienced for many days always made people feel a little timid.
In Lin Ran's eyes, her timidity was like wanting to welcome or rejecting, and she didn't want to talk about etiquette and discord. place to store.
She was more gentle than before, which relieved Mu Liang's slightly fearful heart. She tried to relax herself, and looked up at Lin Ran: "You, you..."
He hesitated to speak, and added a bit of charm to the gentle atmosphere. The green mountains and dew made people wanton.
The small couch is not as warm and soft as a bed, and in summer, there is only a layer of summer mats, which makes the skin ache, Mu Liang unconsciously moved her body, and her white skin was stained pink.
Lin Ran's gentleness made Mu Liang forget the slight discomfort and pain. She hadn't had sex for a long time, and she was weak, and her repeated begging made Lin Ran stop. She found a thin blanket, and the two lay down next to each other.
Mu Liang, who was trying to settle accounts with her, didn't have the energy to bring up the attic again. She didn't see the blueprint last night, only saw the budget money, and guessed that the attic must be extraordinary.
It's just that I didn't think deeply about how unusual it was.The thin calluses on Lin Ran's palms slid across her skin, causing her to suddenly come to her senses, and she got up to put on her clothes.
Lin Ran refused to let her go, and held down the hand she was about to hold up, "They know that I will catch up on sleep before noon, and they won't disturb me at will."
"You don't sleep at night in the Fuyun Building?" Mu Liang's tone was low, and even his face changed. Lin Ran hurriedly explained: "Jiu Niang knows what I did, she won't lie to you."
Mu Liang didn't return, and lay down next to her, his brows and eyes stained with fatigue, Lin Ran rubbed her, temporarily put away those troublesome things, and hugged her tightly.
After hugging for a while, she kissed Mu Liang's earlobe: "Do you miss me?"
"En." Mu Liang responded to her.Lin Ran was not satisfied, "What do you mean?"
"I miss you." Mu Liang's voice was very soft, the wind rustled through the grass, Lin Ran was very satisfied, and pressed her forehead again: "I miss you too, very much."
After finishing speaking, his hands became restless again. Mu Liang realized that it was already too late.
She was forced to face Lin Ran squarely, but she was powerless to refuse, allowing her to do whatever she wanted until she had no strength to speak.
****
The news of Mu Liang's return to the mansion spread like wildfire, and Lin Ran could not be seen leaving the mansion, let alone going to Fuyun Tower.
From then on, everyone in Luoyang city knew that Patriarch Lin was a little wife and slave, and he never mentioned it again after making jokes.Compared with the incident of the little wife and slave, the reopening of the Lin family's embroidery workshop is even more shocking.
After the owner of the dandy family ruined his family fortune, Princess Mu returned to the mansion to clean up the mess, and reopened the original embroidery workshop in one day. The price was the same as last year, which was much lower than that of the Zhao family. to cheer.
In comparison, the three or two guests in front of the Zhao Family Embroidery Workshop can tell whether they are high or low at the first sight.
When Mu Liang reopened the embroidery workshop, Lin Ran didn't go out in the mansion. After all, Ah Liang's return to reopen the embroidery workshop is the best name.It doesn't matter if others think of her as a concubine slave or a prodigal son. Fame can't be used as a money envoy, and it can't prolong your life, so why should you care.
She thought very openly, staying in the mansion and not going out, staring at the craftsmen making attics, she should also avoid Xindi's eyeliner.
After the foundation was destroyed, it had to be rebuilt. Lin Ran didn't care about money, but about time. She sat in front of the foundation wearing a straw hat, still clutching blueprints.
In summer, the heat is unstoppable, watermelons are frozen in the well water to cool off the craftsmen, and she herself holds the ice cup made by Ah Liang.
Fang ate two mouthfuls, and Changle rushed over after hearing the news.
The two of them sat under the shade of a tree and set up two couches. Lin Ran was wearing a blue thin robe with the cuffs rolled up, revealing a pair of pure white wrists. There was a large green leaf on top of her head.
Chang Le came almost the next day, and without greeting, he ate icemelon in his hand and said, "May I borrow some money?"
"The new emperor just turned my place upside down. Could it be that your princess mansion also wants to be turned upside down?" Lin Ran reminded her.
After the maid served the melons and fruits, she was waved back by Chang Le, and there was a knocking sound from the foundation from time to time. Chang Le watched the craftsmen beating from a distance, "Don't be afraid of him, the Princess Mansion has not been repaired, and another piece of land will be turned over." And no one cares."
"Alright, it's up to you, I don't have any money, you can ask Ah Liang to borrow it." Lin Ran quit, thinking of Qin Wan, he said: "You might as well wait a little longer, after the Queen Mother returns to the Zichen Palace, you can borrow it again." Not too late."
The coldness in Chang Le's eyes deepened, and there was indifference in his tone: "Will she return to Zichen Palace?"
Lin Ran opened his eyelids and looked at her. According to Xinyang's temperament, Emperor Ming would definitely return to the Zichen Palace to regain power, and then he would avenge the Luo family.
"If she doesn't return, you enter the Zichen Palace to rule?"
"I..." Chang Le was speechless, what will happen in the future, I can't think of it now, but Mu Liang is back, presumably Xin Yang has great confidence in the situation in the city.She sighed and said: "No matter what, I'll go to Ah Liang to borrow some money."
"It's up to you." Lin Ran put the straw hat over his head, and planned to take a nap as soon as he closed his eyes, Chang Le went to the flower hall to wait for Mu Liang.
Mu Liang didn't come back until dusk, and he hadn't seen Chang Le for a long time, and he wasn't as casual as Lin Ran and Chang Le. They exchanged a few words before getting into the topic.
She was in a bit of a dilemma, "It takes a lot of money to reopen the embroidery workshop, and the family is struggling. I'm afraid it will disappoint His Highness."
"You don't have any silver either?" Chang Le was surprised, and somewhat suspicious of Mu Liang's words. The Lin family's business spreads everywhere in Xinjin, and it's not just a city of Luoyang.
"It is true that the cities in the south of the Yangtze River have suffered a lot of losses. You have seen the shops in Luoyang City. Lin Ran has no intention of operating them, and they have closed them all. I have no choice but to wait a little longer. When things stabilize, I will definitely give the rest of the money to the family. Send it." Mu Liang said tactfully.
The two of them are of the same generation, and Mu Liang did not follow Lin Ran's generation to call his little aunt, nor does he have Lin Ran's respect, just like in the past, she said everything she could say, and she refused to borrow it if she couldn't afford it.
Chang Le is not a ruthless person either. Thinking of the situation of the Lin family, it is indeed not as good as before. After thinking for a moment, she got up and left without explaining what she was going to do.
After she left, Mu Liang sat alone in the living room, and went outside today to listen to a lot of things about the Zhao family.
A few years ago, she was still humble and respectful. After the new emperor ascended the throne, she changed completely. It was hard for people not to doubt her. After she thought about it deeply, she asked someone to invite Lin Ran to discuss with her about hosting a banquet.
Lin Ran knew that she liked to be pure and pure, so when he suddenly heard her throwing a banquet, he didn't know what it meant.
Mu Liang explained: "I'll try Zhao Fuyun's bottom line."
"How do you try?" Lin Ran was puzzled, she had always been in harmony with Zhao's family, and she refused to go to the Zhao family's banquet, why did Ah Liang do the opposite.
"It's just a normal banquet, so don't be nervous." Mu Liang was extremely calm, and he sat down with her, and when he saw the bruises in front of her eyes, he reached out and touched her, feeling sorry for her: "Since I'm back, I will naturally take Mrs. Lin's If you are doing business in your identity, you should take a few days off."
She was gentle, and Lin Ran let go of his emotions, "Ah Liang, Zhao Fuyun is too cunning, be careful."
"I know, no matter how treacherous she is, she can't beat Emperor Ming." Mu Liang comforted her, and seeing that she was still frowning, she said with a smile: "It's nothing, you might as well think about the child's name, whether the surname is Mu or Chen, it's up to you Decide."
"I don't have any surnames. The father of the Lin family saved me in trouble. Naturally, the surname should be Lin." Lin Ran said frankly that the surname Mu and Chen are not as good as those with the surname Lin.
When she made a decision, Mu Liang didn't care to ask, "Listen to you."
Lin Ran raised his head and looked at her beautiful face, "Ah Liang, I want to go out tonight."
"Where are you going?" Mu Liang's heart tightened. Ever since she came back, Lin Ran didn't want to go out, let alone go out at night. After thinking for a while, she worried, "Is it dangerous?"
"No, I'll be back before midnight. If anyone comes, just say I'm taking a rest and explain to you when I come back." Lin Ran's face darkened, thinking of her visit to Fuyun Tower at night, he quickly explained: " I'm not going to Fuyun Tower, I'm doing serious business."
Mu Liang sighed, "I'd rather you go to Fuyunlou to play around."
In terms of danger and playing with other women, she would choose the latter, not wanting Lin Ran to be in danger.
She sighed, which made Lin Ran's heart twitch, and said depressedly, "I'm wholeheartedly devoted to you, and I have never changed my mind."
Mu Liang hugged her and stopped talking.
Lin Ran stayed for a while and was about to leave. She changed into dark clothes, which Mu Liang personally changed for her, removing the jade hairpin from her bun.After leaving for so long, Lin Ran's brows and eyes widened, and when he looked at him closely, his childishness faded away, and he became more feminine.
She stepped up and kissed those eyebrows, then hugged him tightly in her arms, and gently rubbed her side face: "Come back early, I'll wait for you."
"Will you wash yourself and wait for me?" Lin Ran teased her, trying to make her feel at ease, with a teasing tone in his words.
Mu Liang didn't care, and knew her habits, only when she was in danger, Lin Ran would tease her with jokes, and only at this time did he raise his heart.
Everyone has their own responsibilities. Lin Ran is different. She will not stay under her protection for the rest of her life. No matter how strong she is, she is only eighteen or nineteen years old. How can she really do everything properly.
She lightly brushed the broken hair from Lin Ran's temples, revealing the faint scar on her forehead. Although she didn't know how it came about, it must have been very painful.Gently rubbing the scar with his fingertips, he whispered: "I have no extravagant hopes for you, just come back intact, you can do it?"
"Yes, I can definitely do it." Lin Ran immediately promised, and when the outside was about to get dark, he kissed her on the lips, turned and left.
Mu Liang was very worried, and after sighing a few times, he went to the study to meet with the steward to discuss the matter of the embroidery workshop.
When the sky was completely dark, the maidservant brought in the dinner, and the steward retreated to have dinner.Mu Liang relaxed, feeling empty in his heart, full of silence.
The author has something to say: Lin Ran is justified: Look, I am not kneeling, I am strong!
I didn't plan to add more, but many people shouted to add...
I added it, and lost more than half of the manuscript.
