Xiao Jiaojiao suffered from morning sickness and had many babies, and was pampered by Qing Leng'

"Uncle gave it to you, take it!" Xie Rou said gently.

Song Lan immediately caught the tumbler.

"Thank you uncle!"

Xie Yuan raised his hand and touched the little princess's head with a gentle expression.

"You're welcome!"

He looked at his sister and although he knew something was against the rules, he still said it.

"Sister, can I give Lanlan a hug?"

Xie Rou nodded slightly and handed her daughter to her brother.

The moment Xie Yuan carefully took the child, he felt his heart swell.

"Sister, Lanlan's nose looks a lot like yours!"

The moment he spoke, his voice was shaky and hoarse.

Xie Rou looked at the two people she cared about most in her life, turned away and wiped the tears from her face and said, "I see you are a little thinner than last time? Are you very busy lately?"

"Sister must have seen it wrong. My brother is obviously fatter than before, but my sister is much thinner than last time."

He paused and asked in a low voice: "Is the princess feeling better?"

Xie Rou shook her head gently.

"Sister, you should also take care of yourself when you are sick. You have Lanlan now."

Xie Rou looked at her daughter with soft eyes and said, "Don't worry, I will protect her."

Seeing that his sister had understood what she meant, Xie Yuan said no more. He just took out his purse from his arms, and his sister had already handed a purse in front of him.

The two siblings looked at the purses in their hands and smiled.

Xie Yuan stuffed the purse into the little princess's pocket and said, "I gave this to Lan Lan."

He paused and looked at his sister: "It's not the past now. Sister, my brother has grown up. I will take care of myself. Don't worry. On the contrary, it will be your side. There will be more places to use money in the future. Don't be like this anymore." As frugal as I was before, I have to spend when it’s time to spend, especially here, the little princess.”

While Xie Yuan was talking to his sister, he saw the little princess opening her big round eyes and curiously looking at the passers-by on the street. He held her in his arms and gently turned her sideways so that she could see more clearly.

Xie Rou listened to her brother's instructions in detail, with a smile on her lips and a warm heart like spring. She waited for her brother to finish and asked, "How is the harvest in our village this year?"

"The average yield per mu increases by more than 20 kilograms."

Xie Rou was overjoyed when she heard this.

"Great!"

She paused and looked at her brother and warned her again: "You have a bright future. Don't ruin your future because of two unworthy people, you know?"

Xie Yuan looked at his serious sister and nodded gently.

"Sister, don't worry, I didn't mess around before, and I won't do it again in the future."

He looked at the child in his arms, the corners of his lips raised in an obvious arc and said: "I have someone I want to protect and protect."

Xie Rou looked at her younger brother who had calmed down in an instant, and called out with a slight thought: "Brother, are you...are you..."

But she couldn't ask for the last few words. She was afraid that she would be disappointed.

Xie Yuan looked into his sister's expectant eyes, smiled and nodded.

"Sister, I want to get engaged."

Xie Rou suddenly opened her eyes wide and her heart pounded! Thumping! 'She was about to jump out of her skin, excited and happy. She covered her chest and asked happily: "Really?"

His voice trembled when he spoke.

"Really? My brother has someone he wants to spend his life with."

A big smile broke out on Xie Rou's face.

"Tell me quickly about her situation."

"Her surname is Jiang and her given name is Mingyue. She is from Yuanjiang Prefecture in the south of the Yangtze River. Last summer, my brother traveled to Yuanjiang..."

Xie Yuan first told his sister what happened when they first met.

Xie Rou didn't expect that her brother had experienced such a dangerous thing, and she was shocked and scared. If Jiang Mingyue hadn't been here, she would have wanted to thank her properly.

"later?"

"Something happened in her family this year, and she brought her younger brother to Wanping County..."

Xie Yuan briefly told his sister what happened after they met again.

Xie Rou smiled slowly.

"You two have a long-lasting marriage. Since you like her, you should treat her well, you know?"

"Brother knows!"

"When will you get engaged?"

"On the ninth day of the Lunar New Year, the official media will come to the Jiang family to propose marriage."

"What have you prepared for the engagement ceremony?"

"According to the custom here, I prepared a hairpin, bracelet, earrings and cloth."

Xie Rou was about to speak when she saw the maid and the gatekeeper coming over. She knew it was time for her to go back and said, "Wait here for a while. I will prepare something for you and ask Lu'e to deliver it later."

"Sister, no need, I'm ready."

"What will you prepare? Besides, can what you prepare be better than what I prepare?"

Xie Rou took her daughter and said forcefully: "Wait here!"

Seeing that his sister didn't give him a chance to refuse, Xie Yuan hurried away and had to wait. During this period, he bought some cakes and handed them to the grandma guarding the door. Although they were not worth a few dollars, they were still a little thoughtful. .

A quarter of an hour later, Xie Yuan left the Fifth Prince's Mansion with the cloth and hairpin prepared by his sister.

In the residence of Mu Qingqing, the fifth prince's concubine, Aunt Wan came in from the corridor on the right and walked lightly in front of the main house. There was a young eunuch and a maid guarding the door. When she saw her, she immediately lowered her body and saluted. Aunt Wan Waving his hand, he gently opened the curtain and walked in.

In the bedroom, the fifth princess was leaning on the bed and taking medicine.

Grandma Wan did not step forward immediately, but stood to one side.

Although the fifth princess is only 20 years old, she was injured due to heavy bleeding during childbirth and has been sick all day. She looks like she is in her thirties. She wears a maroon formal gauze skirt, has a serious face, and looks quite majestic. .

When Aunt Wan came in, she had already seen her. After drinking the medicine, she took a sip of water to suppress the bitter taste in her mouth, and then she looked at Aunt Wan and waited for her reply.

Aunt Wan stepped forward and bowed, then stood up neatly. She took two steps forward and whispered in a low voice what happened to Mrs. Ru and the young princess to meet Xie Yuan.

The fifth prince's concubine slowly closed her eyes as if she hadn't heard what Grandma Anhui said. Xie Rou was the maid who taught the fifth prince about human affairs. She was his first woman. Later, with the grace of Concubine Jing, she followed the fifth prince out of the palace.

She was wary of this woman at first. Later, when she married into the palace, she even targeted Xie Rou for a period of time. Later, she found that she was honest and obedient, did not compete for the first place, and did not criticize her. In addition, the fifth prince did not like her very much. Only then did she give up.

In the past two years since she was ill, the house has not been peaceful. The concubine and Mrs. Wei have all had their thoughts, but she is still the same as before, and they respect her more than before. They will report everything to her first, and never She has done something illegal, so now she is willing to protect her.

The fifth prince's concubine opened her eyes and said: "Go ahead, if anyone dares to gossip about today's matter, if it reaches the prince's ears, he will be dealt with according to the family law."

"Yes!"

Aunt Wan bowed respectfully and withdrew.

In Lanxin Courtyard, Xie Rou was playing roly-poly with her daughter, and Lu'e walked up to her and whispered a few words quickly.

Xie Rou looked calm, as if she had already guessed it.
