Chapter 119 Stealing Incense and Jade (3)

Xiao Cui smiled and said, "Of course it's true. Can you still lie to you?"

Zhao Xin was a little surprised. In my impression, Ran Min was cold in both eyes and tone, as if nothing in this world could move her, giving people a feeling of keeping others from thousands of miles away. I didn't expect that she would take the initiative to inquire about her affairs.

Zhao Xin's heart couldn't help but jumped up and couldn't help but wonder if this meant that Ran Min didn't hate him.

Xiao Cui said a few more words, but saw Zhao Xin appearing to be absent-minded. He couldn't help but have a slightly angry face, snorted and stomped his feet, and said angrily, "Young Master Zhao."

Zhao Xin then came to his senses and hurriedly said, "What's the matter with Sister Xiao Cui."

Xiao Cui snorted and said, "I can't tell that your mouth is quite sweet. Forget it, I won't make things difficult for you just by saying "Miss Xiao Cui". Let me ask you, you came to our mansion to find the lady."

Zhao Xin could not think of other excuses for a moment. Since they had been recognized by Xiao Cui, they could not kill anyone to silence him. He had to bite the bullet and nodded, "That's right."

Xiao Cui smiled again and said softly, "Young Master Zhao, you have been here since you met that time. I thought you had a high vision and had no interest in the lady. I didn't expect that after half a year, you came here again... Oh yes, it should be called stealing fragrance and stealing jade, right?"

When Xiao Cui said this, she couldn't help but cover her mouth and giggled. Zhao Xin was embarrassed and scratched her head and said embarrassedly, "Where is there, I'm not in Handan all the time. And Miss Ran looked cold, how dare I get close to her?"

Xiao Cui curled her lips and said disapprovingly, "You really don't understand our lady. Her heart is higher than the sky, and there are almost no one who can catch his eyes. So you never look at these crazy bees, but you only looked at you seriously and were also interested in your affairs. Humph, you are still in the blessings and don't know."

Zhao Xin couldn't help but burst into cold sweat, thinking that Ran Min was really special. It turned out that she had looked at someone special for a few more times. If Xiao Cui knew that her lady not only looked at her seriously, but also said something to her for a long time, wouldn't she think that her lady had secretly agreed to her?

Seeing that the matter had been revealed and it was impossible to steal it, Zhao Xin thought about how to find a suitable excuse to get rid of Xiao Cui and escape. However, Xiao Cui suddenly posted it up and approached mysteriously and said, "Young Master Zhao, you are here to find our lady this time."

Zhao Xin could not think of any other excuses, so he nodded, as if he had agreed. Xiao Cui was very enthusiastic. She had a little fond of Zhao Xin's gentle appearance, and had heard a lot of legendary stories about Zhao Xin on the battlefield. The girl always blindly admired the young hero in her heart, and Zhao Xin was undoubtedly the most dazzling one among the new stars in Zhao State.

Xiao Cui has been with Ran Min since childhood, and is called the master and servant, but is actually a sister. Her relationship is naturally not very good, so she naturally thought that Zhao Xin would be a good match for the lady, and only a boy like Zhao Xin is qualified to marry the lady and bring her lifelong happiness.

So when she saw Zhao Xin sneaking into Ran’s mansion, she was not anxious, but was very happy. After asking about Zhao Xin’s purpose, she said enthusiastically, "Miss is almost awake at this time, so I will take you to her with me."

Without waiting for Zhao Xin to reply, he grabbed his sleeve and hurriedly walked towards the courtyard. Zhao Xin followed with a wry smile. His usually smart head was now covered in dust, and he couldn't think of a way, so he had to passively be pulled away by Xiao Cui.

Ran's mansion covers a large area, and a large backyard is not small, with water pavilions, towers, corridors, and rockery. Ran Min's boudoir is located in the center of the courtyard. This is where Ran Min's boudoir is located. The servants have always known that the lady likes quietness, so they rarely go to the yard to disturb him, so Zhao Xin was unobstructed along the way and did not meet anyone.

When he was about to get downstairs, Zhao Xin left some thoughts and found an opportunity to speak, "Sister Xiao Cui, can you not tell others about my visit to Ran Mansion this time, especially the magistrate of County Ran."

Xiao Cui turned around and smiled sweetly, saying, "Young Master, be careful, I know the importance of it. Only heaven and earth know you and I know this, and there is also a lady knowing it. No one else knows it except that."

Zhao Xinxin knew that she had misunderstood, but she was not inconvenient to explain. She saw her turn and instructed herself to wait downstairs for a while, then she went upstairs and called Ran Min.

I waited downstairs for a while, but no one came out. I thought to myself that the woman was Mo Ji, and she had enough time in the army to dress up, wash, wash, and urinate. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but think of Ran Min's appearance, and an evil smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. I wonder if this cold beauty would still be so elegant and calm when she was in a hurry.

Just as she was thinking about it, Xiao Cui suddenly pushed open the window, stretched out her arm and waved with a smile: "Young master, please invite me."

Zhao Xin hurriedly stopped thinking, sorted out his clothes slightly, took a deep breath and went out.

Ran Min's attic is in the center of the courtyard pond. Although it is small and exquisite, it does not give people a sense of crowding. The house is filled with beautiful platters, which is like moving part of the garden outside. At the center is a painting of silk paintings of women, light and thin, elegant and elegant, appropriately setting off the hostess' talent and temperament. At the same time, it also separates the couch in the boudoir from the entrance of the corridor, so that those who come in will not suddenly see it.

Although it was not the first time Zhao Xin met Ran Min, it was the first time he came to her boudoir. He looked around with curiosity. After Yu Guang saw the screen, Ran Min was looking at him, quickly calmed down his eyes, bowed slightly to Ran Min, and said, "Miss Ran is polite."

After saying that, he looked up and pretended to be calm. His eyes did not avoid dodging, but looked at Ran Min with a smile.

Having not seen her for more than half a year, Ran Min still has a clear appearance and skin as creamy as a cream, but her single figure is much longer than before. This time she was wearing a long white blue and white gown, and a fallen horse bun on her head, which was tall and fallen sideways. With her slender figure, slender waist, beautiful jade neck, and white skin, she felt more beautiful and extraordinary and bright. She was less green than before, but more round.

The deepest pair of lacquer-like eyes that Zhao Xin remembered had not changed, but were still deep and dark. When he looked around, the watery glow shone like autumn waves, which was so bright that it made people feel ashamed of themselves.

Perhaps he just woke up from a nap. Ran Min's cheeks flushed, his eyes were slightly blurred, and he looked lazy. Seeing Zhao Xin looking at him with eyes fixed on his eyes, Ran Min's face darkened and said in a clear voice. "Young Master Zhao, you always say polite and look like a gentleman. Then I ask you, what a gentleman is?"

Zhao Xin smiled slightly in his heart and thought: It's coming again.

Knowing that Ran Min was studying what he learned in "The Rites", he said loudly, "A gentleman does not move rashly, and he will have a way of movement; a gentleman does not speak only, and his words will have a reason; a gentleman does not seek meticulously, and his seek will have a righteousness; a gentleman does not act in vain, and his actions will have a right way. Miss Ran, I can answer correctly."

Ran Min did not reply to him directly, but just looked at him lightly and said with a glance, "Young Master Zhao is so displaced, but now he has privately entered the place where the female family is in my backyard. Is this what a gentleman should do?"

Zhao Xin smiled and said, "Miss laughed. I have never said that I am a gentleman. Besides, I have not performed the ceremony yet, so how can a gentleman say that I am a gentleman?"

Ran Min was stunned, but Yu Yan was.

It turns out that according to the Zhou ritual, men can only perform the ritual of a crown until they are twenty years old, which is used as the difference between adult men and boys. Even if the emperor and princes take charge of national affairs as soon as possible, they are mostly rituals for the heirs in advance, but they are generally after the age of fifteen. Zhao Xin is less than fifteen years old, so how can he say that the ritual of a crown is naturally not a gentleman.

Xiao Cui saw the two of them staring at the big eyes and chuckling with their mouths, but they were also very understanding and blessed, and did not speak, but just turned around to avoid it.

Seeing Xiao Cui leave, Ran Min couldn't help but feel a hint of panic that was not easy to detect, but soon returned to the tranquility of the past. Her eyes were like water, and she looked straight at Zhao Xin, and said in a calm voice, "What's the point of turning into my house?"
