Ningxiang stood in the main hall and saw the children coming back from a distance. Anan Guoer walked side by side, Amu hugged Mao Ge'er, and Rong Ge'er walked among them. The sun was shining on the children in August. Rong Ge'er Mao Ge'er was fine. Seeing the other three children who were gathering together again, Ningxiang was very moved.

Time flies so fast that the children are growing up in the blink of an eye.

"Why did you bring so many more things?" The people behind him carried several alleys, and Ningxiang was helpless and frowned and scolded her brother: "Amu, didn't you tell you to persuade the prince?"

"Amu..." Maoer looked at his uncle and laughed, "Uncle's name is Amu."

Xu Mu looked at his sister with an undetectable redness on his fair face. He was 20 years old, so why did his sister still call him his nickname? He would be partial to Xiao Nan, call the prince in front of his nephews, and speak alone in private, and then call Anan Amu. Anan Amu, who is so rusty, but now his nephew only laughs at him.

"Mom, there are so many things, they are not worth it." Looking at her adoptive mother who had not seen for several months, Xiao Nan looked much gentler. After people opened the box, he walked to a box of fur and smiled and said, "Mom, these are all wolf skins we made ourselves. If you turn around, you will let the servants make mattresses and sleep very warmly at night."

The child was filial, Ningxiang was very relieved. She touched the wolf skin and looked up slightly to see that the young man who had long surpassed her. "You have loved hunting since you were a child. Now you know how to do kung fu, and I can't even care about you. But you must bring more guards around you when hunting. These wild beasts are too fierce, so be careful."

Xiao Nan nodded, smiled with a phoenix eye, "Don't worry, mom, I know everything."

"I want this!" Mao Ge'er likes the gift the most. He looked at each box and a box next to each other. Suddenly, he saw a red fox skin with another one underneath. Mao Ge'er was very happy. He forgot about hating the prince's brother yesterday and said loudly to Xiao Nan, "Crown brother, give it to me!"

Xiao Nan remained silent and his eyes fell on Guoer's face. It was prepared by him specifically for Guoer.

Guo'er also liked these two fox skins. Xing'er turned her eyes and bent down to smile at her younger brother, "Brother Mao likes red foxes? But the cloaks made of red fox skins are all worn by girls. When Mao'er wears them, she will be laughed at by her friends."

Brother Mao opened his mouth wide and looked at the fox skin in his hand. He suddenly disliked it and threw it into the box and continued to flip the gift next to him.

Guo'er picked up two fox skins and touched them liked each other. She noticed that Xiao Nan was looking at her, and she smiled sweetly.

This smile seemed to be like flowers blooming, and Xiao Nan's long journey had dissipated.

After talking with the elders, Xiao Nan and Xu Mu led Brother Rong to the garden to play, and Guoer of course followed.

Brother Mao was very active and pestered his uncle to take him around, refusing to stay in the same place. Compared with Xiao Nan, who was taciturn, Brother Rong was more used to getting along with his uncle and chose to follow him. Guoer asked Xiao Nan to go over with him, and Xiao Nan pointed to the nearby hexagonal pavilion and said, "Sit down, I've been tired all the way and haven't had enough rest."

"Why are my uncle not tired?" Guo'er looked at him disgustedly, but still went to the pavilion with him.

There was a stone table in the center of the pavilion. Guoer sat facing outward, looking at her younger brother who was carried by her uncle on her shoulders. Xiao Nan chose her position diagonally opposite her. In this way, he would not look too strange to see Guoer. The fourteen-year-old Guoer has delicate and fair skin, moist and bright almond eyes, and her lips look even more beautiful, and her every frown and smile makes him fascinated.

Xiao Nan was staring at it.

"What have you been watching me do?" Guo'er felt it, touched her face, thinking that there was something on her face.

"Gua'er looks better." Xiao Nan stared at Guo'er, his eyes as bright as stars.

Guo'er was stunned, not expecting Xiao Nan would praise her beauty so directly. The relatives of Tai'an Mansion would praise her every year when they saw her, but as she grew up year by year, her cousins, who were similar in age, no longer said such words, including the prince in front of her.

She looked at Xiao Nan blankly and looked at her with her eyes. There seemed to be something more in Xiao Nan's bright black eyes. Guo'er didn't understand it very much, but she was inexplicably panicked.

"You are not allowed to look at me like this." She was not used to this strange and strange feeling, so she lowered her head and said in a low voice.

"Why not?" The little girl's fair face gradually turned red and became more beautiful. Xiao Nan spoke calmly, but his heartbeats faster and his palms were sweating. As early as the year he entered the palace, he decided to marry Guoer's sister in the future, year after year, and finally hoped that she would grow up. Most girls got married at the age of fifteen, so this year he had to decide on the marriage and ask for the consent of his adoptive father and mother. Xiao Nan wanted to explore her attitude first.

Guo'er blushed and looked up. Seeing that he was still staring at her like that, she lowered again and hummed, "I don't know, I just don't allow it anyway."

"Okay, I won't read it anymore. I'll tell you a story. I heard it on the way." Xiao Nan left his seat, turned to Guoer, and sat down next to her.

"What story?" Guo'er asked curiously, her almond eyes raised, and the handsome face reflected the young man's handsome face.

Mao Ge'er was still harming his uncle in the distance. Xiao Nan looked over there and was sure that one or two people would not come to make trouble for a short time. Then he lowered his head and looked at Guo'er's flushed face. His eyes were indescribable gentleness, "It's a story about childhood sweethearts. The girl's beggar is the pearl in her parents' hands. One day, their family took in an orphan, thinking that his adopted son, and named him Abei.

Abei is three years older than Huaer. He doesn't like anyone, he just likes playing with his sister. When Abei was seven years old, Abei's father came to find him and wanted to take him home, but Abei didn't want to. His father said, if you don't go with me, you will always be Huaer's brother. When you grow up, your brother and sister cannot get married. Abei likes Huaer, and he wants to marry her, so he left with his biological father. Huaer kept crying, but they still separated."

Guoer was moved and urged, "What's next?"

"Later, Abei grew up to be a big man. He went back to find Huaer. Huaer was fourteen years old, but she no longer remembered Abei. She wanted to marry someone else. Abei pestered her to tell her about her childhood. Huaer refused to listen and insisted on getting married. Abei's father was a high-ranking official. He wanted to force Huaer to marry him. Huaer kept crying. Like when he was a child, Abei couldn't bear it and fulfilled Huaer and her fiancé. In the end, Huaer and her husband grew old together, Abei was depressed and lived alone all his life. Huaer was alive, Abei couldn't bear to force her lover, Huaer died, Abei finally robbed her coffin and buried it with him, so that he could find Huaer and be married to her in the next life."

Guoer Xing's eyes burst into tears, "Abei likes flowers so much, why doesn't Huaer like him?"

The 14-year-old girl doesn't understand that love cannot be forced, and she is more likely to be moved by the poor people who have been infatuated for a lifetime and be upset by her. After all, in this story, it is emphasized that Abei's infatuation, and Huaer's husband does not describe a word.

Xiao Nan handed the veil to Guoer, and his eyes never left her eyes, "So, you are Huaer, will you marry Abei?"

Guo'er nodded while wiping her tears. There is a man who likes her so much, she will definitely marry her.

Xiao Nan smiled, raised his hand, held her left hand on the table, held it and moved it to him, covered it with the table, and covered it with both hands.

The boy's palms were warm, Guoer raised her head in shock, and tears were still in her almond's eyes.

Xiao Nan pinched her boneless little hand, her eyes as watery as water, "Silly, what is my nickname, what is your name."

Guoer replied blankly, "Your name is Anan..."

As soon as "Anan" was released, Guo'er suddenly realized. Huaer Abei and Guo'er Anan are adopted children, only the endings are different...

"Guo'er, I like you. If I hadn't married you as a wife to grow up, I wouldn't have entered the palace to be the prince." Since she understood, Xiao Nan calmly told her what she said in her heart, and continued to say under Guo'er's dazed gaze: "Guo'er, you like me, marry me, I will like you like you in my life like my parents, only you, and I will not look at other women at all. If you don't like me and refuse to marry me, Abei will be my ending. I will continue to be the prince, protect you and your husband, and I will wait until you die..."

"Shut up, who will listen to you say it's alive!" Guo'er was confused and broke away from his hand and ran away without looking back.

Anan had already stood up, chased after her, pursed her lips, and stopped to watch her back.

He said everything he should say. He hoped that Guo'er would like him as she said when she was crying. Otherwise, even if he robbed, he would not watch Guo'er marry someone else. But Xiao Nan would not make her sad. He would look at Guo'er firmly and not give her the chance to like others. He would try his best to be nice to her until Guo'er was moved.

But, thinking that's how Xiao Nan still suffered from insomnia when he returned to the palace at night.

Do Guoer likes him or not?

Xiao Nan hoped that she liked her and hoped that she would marry willingly because he liked her so much.

~

In the Hou Mansion, Guoer was lying on the bed in a middle-clothed suit, turning over and over, and also lost insomnia. Her mind was full of the bright phoenix eyes of the young man in the pavilion, his calm but firm voice, and the infatuated man named Abei.

So does Xiao Nan like him so much?

But she has always regarded him as her brother, and she didn't think about it before, but now he suddenly said he wanted to marry her...

Guoer couldn't bear to let Xiao Nan end like Abei, but she was obviously the older brother, but she didn't like it just as she wanted to.

Unwilling to refuse, I don’t know how to like it, Guoer tossed and turned, and didn’t sleep well all night. Because of her irritability, the little girl put her arms out for a while, and her feet were exposed, and she didn’t know when she fell asleep. In the morning, she was confused and heard the maid call her, Guoer turned in and couldn’t get up after staying in bed.

When the maid heard that the girl's face was red, she felt something was wrong, so she reached over... It was indeed hot.

Listen to Que quickly reply to his wife.

Lu Cheng went to work as a worker before dawn. Ningxiang was walking in the yard with her stomach. When she heard that her daughter was sick and anxious, she rushed to her daughter's boudoir and ordered the maid to invite a doctor.

Half an hour later, the doctor told Ningxiang with a relaxed expression that Guoer was just a little cold and just took a few medicines, so it would be fine.

Ningxiang breathed a sigh of relief.

Guo'er had a red face and smiled weakly at her mother, "Mom, go back, don't be sick for you."

Being well-behaved and sensible.

Ningxiang felt sorry for her daughter, and felt that she was healthy and was not afraid of any illness. She stayed by the bed and talked to her daughter. Guoer looked at her gentle mother and wanted to ask her what she should do. She was just talking to her, but she was afraid that her mother would not agree to the marriage because of her relationship with Xiao Nan. It would be fine if she did not allow her to interact with Xiao Nan in the future. What should she do if she was not allowed to interact with Xiao Nan in the future?

Guoer couldn't bear to let Xiao Nan go to sad. When she was a child, she remembered that Xiao Nan was only playing with her, even now. Once, she was at home to invite the sisters she had made friends with. Xiao Nan and his uncle suddenly came. The little girls were looking forward to seeing the prince. When Xiao Nan saw so many people in the garden, he immediately went elsewhere with his uncle. When the guests left, he came to talk to her.

The love story begins to begin, and the girl who is originally happy and carefree has more worries overnight.

The doctor invited by the Hou Mansion in the morning. Shortly after the doctor left, Xiao Nan received the letter and immediately ran to ask for instructions from his father.
