India

The conversation was interrupted by a sudden knock on the door, Mrs. Zhang looked at the door vigilantly and asked, "Who?"

"It's me, sister." A suspicious female voice sounded outside, "What are you doing locking the door in broad daylight?"

This voice sounds a little familiar.Mo Nan murmured in his heart.

"Oh, it's Li Yan." Mrs. Zhang breathed a sigh of relief, and opened the door for her while answering, "There are two guests at home, and I'm greeting them."

"guest?"

Mrs. Zhang got up to open the door, and the two stayed where they were.Only then did Ji Guiran glance at the hand that was grabbing his clothes, and asked, "When do you want to catch it?"

Seeing this, Mo Nan subconsciously let go of his hand, looked at the creases on the fabric that he had squeezed out, and felt a little ashamed of his timidity.

Ji Guiran managed to capture that emotion, and said sarcastically, "Coward."

"you!……"

Before the quarrel broke out, the door opened, and in front of the door was the talking woman, holding a young boy by the hand. When she saw Mo Nan and Ji Gui in the room, her expression became a little surprised .

"Why are you?" she asked in surprise.

They also recognized her immediately, isn't this the woman they saw in the temple?

"...Yes, girl, what a coincidence, we meet again."

"It's a coincidence..." The woman smiled kindly at them, and then asked suspiciously, "Why are you two here?"

"Oh, it's like this, the two of them... have something they want to know, and I just brought them in because I know something."

"Things," the woman's expression became slightly serious, "Could it be..."

"It's about the same...Okay, let's bring Xiaoyan in, it's not good to stand at the door, Xiaoyan, bring your mother into the house."

"it is good."

The young man took her one step ahead and entered the room. Although the woman hesitated to speak, she followed him in. They sat around the square table together.

Mo Nan saw that the atmosphere was a little weird, he didn't know the inside story, so it was difficult for him to say anything, and Ji Guiran was originally taciturn, and now he was even more silent. Mo Nan felt that this person sitting there was no different from a Buddha statue. I want to plant a stick of incense and pay my respects.

The atmosphere was stalemate for a long time, and finally, Mrs. Zhang, the owner of the house, broke the deadlock.

"That... Li Yan," she seemed to call out to the woman, "You brought Xiaoyan to find me, what's the matter?"

"It's nothing important, but Fei Po asked me to ask how your preparations are going. After all, the ceremony is not many days away."

"Her old man really likes to worry," Mrs. Zhang smiled helplessly, "Don't worry, I won't deliberately make any mistakes on such an important matter, just go back and tell her to be at ease."

"Okay, I understand." The woman nodded, "Then, sister, I have something I want to talk to you about, I don't know..."

"Don't talk."

"..."

Even though the situation was so serious, Mo Nan wanted to laugh a little.He tried his best to suppress the corners of his mouth that were about to rise, and put his eyes on Ji Guiran next to him, trying to suppress his smile.

"Sister..." The woman naturally didn't pay attention to his situation, she frowned dissatisfiedly, and tried to persuade, "We..."

Before she finished speaking, Mrs. Zhang interrupted her directly: "Okay, I know everything. I really didn't want to do anything, but I just heard you say that, and I can't remember that those things that were dancing Where did I put it, I will look for it right now, excuse me."

"Sister, do you think I can't see it?" The woman didn't seem to want to let her go.

"Li Yan!..." She called her a little emotionally, and then whispered a lesson, "There are still guests, what do you look like?"

Being reprimanded by her like this, the woman had no choice but to shut her mouth embarrassingly.

But the two guests were at a loss, they didn't know what they were talking about, and they faintly felt that there was something hidden in it.

"I'll go find something." Mrs. Zhang stopped talking to the woman, got up and went to another room, leaving the remaining four people to continue to be embarrassed.

After the woman lowered her head and pondered for a while, she gradually turned her attention to Mo Nan and Ji Guiran, and she was the first to break the embarrassment.

"I'm really sorry to let you hear such an unpleasant conversation." She said apologetically.

"fine……"

"The two of you seem to have come from afar, and you don't seem to be from Anguo. I would like to ask, where did you come from?"

"We are indeed not from Anguo, and we came from Yeguo." Mo Nan replied.

"Yeguo?" The woman showed a look of surprise, and then smiled lightly, her delicate facial features were very soft, "When it comes to Yeguo, I feel a little nostalgic."

"Miss, have you ever been to Yeguo?" He asked curiously.

"That's right, but it was many years ago, but when I think about it now, it seems like it was yesterday..." She smiled and said, "I won't mention this long-ago thing, but then again, I haven't asked the two young masters about it. What about the name taboo, the little girl's name is Su Liyan, I don't know who the young master is?"

"Oh, I'm at Mo Nan, I'm lucky to meet a girl."

Ji Guiran on the side also responded lightly: "Guiran next season."

"Ji Guiran..." Su Liyan murmured his name several times, raised her eyes to stare at him for a while, and suddenly realized, "I remembered."

"?" Ji Guiran had a bad feeling.

"I thought Mr. Ji looked familiar before, but I remembered your name after hearing your name." She looked a little excited, "I don't know Mr. Ji's home..."

"No." He interrupted her directly.

"..."

"..."

Mo Nan looked at Su Liyan's astonished face, at a loss as to why he said something wrong, and finally couldn't help but burst out laughing. He resisted the urge to laugh at Ji Guiran, and said to her: " It's okay...Miss Su, you just ask, he has always been so abnormal, hahaha..."

"Okay...then I'll ask," Su Liyan asked cautiously, "Does Young Master Ji have brothers and sisters at home?"

"No." Ji Guiran responded without thinking, as if he wanted to skip this topic directly.

"Oh..." Su Liyan was a little disappointed to get the same answer.

And Mo Nan patted Ji Guiran's shoulder to wake him up: "Hey, hey, young master Ji, are you really stupid?? If Miss Ji Yiran from the Ji family heard it, it would be so sad. "

An unfamiliar name was introduced into Ji Guiran's ears, and he only reacted a little bit, remembering that there was indeed such a person in his family.

Su Liyan on the side heard Ji Yiran's name, her expression suddenly became excited, as if she had found a breakthrough in some words, and said: "Yes, yes, it is Miss Ji Yiran, is she really Miss Ji's relative?"

"……Yes."

"That's such a coincidence... I didn't expect to meet Miss Ji's acquaintance in this life," Su Liyan said excitedly, "Oh, by the way, Mr. Ji is Miss Ji's elder brother?"

"Yes."

"Miss Ji these years... how are you doing?"

"Fortunately."

What a fart, I don't think you know it.Seeing Ji Guiran's serious answer, Mo Nan just wanted to laugh. He guessed that this person couldn't even remember what his sister looked like.

However, he didn't laugh out loud, he just sat quietly, listening to the conversation between them without saying a word, and by the way, he was a little curious about the relationship between Su Liyan and Ji Yiran.

"Speaking of which, the first time I met Young Master, I felt quite familiar. It seems that I really didn't admit my mistake." Su Liyan smiled happily.

"Ah."

"Your brothers and sisters really look alike."

"Ah."

Then Su Liyan didn't know what to say, she had a slightly embarrassed look on her face, she was trying very hard to stir up the topic, but Ji Guiran seemed to be indifferent to answering, so she had to keep thinking What should I say next.

However, Mo Nan on the other side just wanted to laugh, and he just kept silent.

Su Liyan thought of something, and continued: "Mr. Ji is not curious about how I, a girl from Anguo, met Miss Ji?"

"..." Ji Guiran frowned slightly imperceptibly, "...you say."

"It's a long story, it happened seven or eight years ago," she smiled helplessly, "Actually, I am not from Anguo, but from Yeguo just like you."

"Oh?"

"Everyone in the world knows that there are many wealthy households in Ye Country, but Li Yan, I have a bad background. I have been working as a maid in a rich family since I was a child. I have always kept my duty and never violated the rules. It's just...one day I broke a little bit. If you make a mistake, you will be kicked out by the master..." She smiled wryly as she talked about her experience, there was no obvious complaint in her eyes, only a few touches of bitterness.

"However, when I was alone and helpless, I met Miss Ji. She saw that I had nothing to turn to, so she extended a helping hand to me." Her eyes brightened a little, "She asked me if I would like to go In her house, she served as her maid, and comforted me that I would not be too harsh on me. Unfortunately... I didn't agree at the time, maybe I was dazzled by resentment, and felt that these rich people were more unreasonable than each other , and even satirized her..."

"Thinking about it after a while, Ms. Ji should have said that out of good intentions. Not only did I not appreciate it, but I also blamed her. Now that I think about it... I really regret it. If I readily agreed at the time, I wouldn't think of her now. I feel guilty, and maybe I will live a different life..." She smiled when she said this, "But life in Anguo is also very good, the neighbors and villagers are very kind, there is no distinction between high and low, living like this Maybe this is Li Yan's life."

"..." Ji Guiran listened to her plain and helpless words, and his expression became a little complicated.

"I thought that my fate with Miss Ji was over for the rest of my life, and I could only bury my guilt for her in my heart for the rest of my life...Fortunately, God has mercy on me," she looked at Ji Guiran happily, "Let me meet Young Master Ji."

"I'm not my sister."

"I know, but you are relatives whose blood is thicker than water, and this alone is enough to comfort me." She said without hesitation.

"..."

Ji Guiran obviously didn't know what to answer her. At this moment, he also realized that something was wrong. He frowned and looked in Mo Nan's direction, only to see that the person who usually chattered shut up now. Seeing him looking over, The smile on the corner of his mouth became more and more obvious.His forehead suddenly twitched a few veins.

He raised his eyebrows at Mo Nan, and the intention in his eyes was obvious: You should say something.

Mo Nan naturally accepted his gaze, and deliberately looked away from him, pretending that he didn't see anything, with the appearance of "I can't hear what you are saying".

"..." Ji Guiran's veins twitched again.

Su Liyan, who was at the side, didn't seem to notice their strangeness. She was immersed in the joy of reuniting with her old friend, and said, "Master Ji...can I continue chatting with you?"

"...Yes." Ji Guiran reluctantly agreed, and clenched his hands unconsciously.

At this time, Mo Nan finally spoke, and he said softly, "I... I suddenly feel a little anxious, um, what, let me solve it, you guys, have a good chat." , Put down a sentence, "Come on, Ji~gong~zi~"

"..."

Seeing Mo Nan hold back a smile, get up and leave mercilessly, Ji Guiran only felt that the anger in his heart was about to burst into his throat, and it might burst out at his back at any time.
