He is tall and big

Mu Qiyuan came from a long way and stayed at Liu's house that night.

Fortunately, a group of servants had just entered in not long ago, otherwise, it would be embarrassing for the guests to live in without even a maid serving them.

Liu Ying organized a dust-cleaning feast for Wufu to welcome him.Because the cook in Liu's house has not yet found a good one, this table was settled from the emerald cloud.

Before the banquet started, word came in from the concierge that Tao County Magistrate had prepared generous gifts and came to Ding Beihou to make amends.

After all, they are also the parents of this county. The Ran family lives here, and they can get along well with the county magistrate, so many things can save a lot of effort.Liu Ying ordered him to come in, and also asked him to accompany him.

County magistrate Tao didn't expect to come to make amends and get a chance to sit with the Marquis of Dingbei, so he was overjoyed at the moment.

He has been an official for more than ten years, seeing that he has just tossed from the lower county to the upper county today, and is worried that he has no way to "move up". Now that he sees this great ladder to climb to heaven, he immediately displays the flattery skills he has honed over the past ten years , but after a short time, he figured out Liu Ying's general temperament by observing his words and expressions, and he did not hold her too much when he spoke, but also showed his respect just right.

After a meal, not only did Mu Qiyuan change his opinion of him, but even Liu Ying was slightly surprised - the county magistrate Tao was so skilled at flattering him that he was only a county magistrate.

In the evening, after Ran Jiqiu had finished his bath, Liu Ying wiped the moisture from his hair with a cloth towel, and suddenly asked, "What do you think of County Magistrate Tao, Young Master?"

Ran Jiqiu tilted his head, frowned and thought about it, hesitantly said: "It seems to be different from what I thought before."

When Tao County Magistrate came here to take office, Ran's father had passed away. He was only white and had never dealt with his parents and officials.But before he heard that the Wan family gave the county magistrate a lot of generous gifts, he didn't like the Wan family's domineering behavior, and naturally he didn't like the county magistrate.

The movements under Liu Ying's hands were very gentle, and he said: "Although this person has no great talent, he has a good mind. He has been in the officialdom for more than ten years. After the evaluation of this term, he will be promoted by chance. The young master will be an official in the future, even if he doesn't like it. People, we have to leave three points.”

Ran Jiqiu paused slightly, turned around, looked up at Liu Ying, "...Are you leaving?"

Liu Ying paused for a moment, she didn't expect the young master to be so sharp.He half knelt down, put the cloth towel on his knees, raised his head to meet Ran Jiqiu's gaze, and said in a low voice, "I have to go back to Beijing in a few days."

Ran Jiqiu looked at him, pursed his lips, and asked after a while, "Then, when will you be back?"

Liu Ying raised her hand to touch his face, gently rubbed his thumb against his chin, and then rested on the corner of his lips affectionately.Ran Jiqiu looked at him with wide eyes, suddenly grabbed his hand, kissed him on the lips like he used to, and asked softly, "This year's Chinese New Year, can you come back?"

The soft lips were imprinted on the rough fingers, Liu Ying's eyes fell on her own hands, and the bottom of her heart seemed to be lightly brushed by a feather, itching.But he still didn't speak, just waiting for the young master's next move.

A blush crept up Ran Jiqiu's cheeks, and dyed the tips of his ears red.He grabbed Liu Ying's hand and carried it in his arms, leaned his upper body forward, leaned in front of Liu Ying, paused for a while, kissed his chin, and said softly, "I want to watch the New Year with you."

Liu Ying's eyes were deep and drooping, and her eyes fell on the young master's tender lips.

Seeing that he was still unmoved, Ran Jiqiu held back his shame and went up to kiss the corner of his mouth, hesitated for a moment, then stuck out the tip of his tongue and licked it.

Liu Ying suddenly broke away from his hand, reached behind him suddenly and strangled the slender waist, tightly imprisoned it in her arms, and raised Ran Jiqiu's chin with the other hand, and kissed him rudely. Go up, aggressively attack the city and seize the land.

Ran Jiqiu was so kissed that he couldn't breathe, his eyes blurred and his hands and feet became limp after a while, so he had no choice but to lean on Liu Ying's arms helplessly, allowing him to ask for urgently.

Liu Ying picked him up and walked towards the bed, within a short while, there was boundless love in the room.

Perhaps because he knew that Liu Ying was about to leave, the young master had the rare courage to sit up on the willow with his own shame.

Ying's shoulder moved up to ask for a kiss.

Naturally, I got up late the next day.

When Ran Jiqiu woke up, the brocade quilt on his body was well tucked in, and Liu Ying was no longer on the couch.

He stared at the top of the tent and stared blankly for a while.There was a faint feeling of soreness in his lower back, he suddenly sighed, and raised his arms to cover his face.Even if Liu Ying was reluctant to leave, he was...too outrageous last night.

Fortunately Liu Ying wasn't here, otherwise, he didn't know how to face it at this time.

He lay down for a while, then slowly got up, and asked Wu Fu to fetch water to wash up.

It wasn't until near noon that Liu Ying came back from outside.

He was going to face the saint in the capital, and it would take a long time to go back and forth, and Ran Jiqiu saw that he still focused on studying, so it was naturally impossible for him to go together.Therefore, before he left, he had to arrange everything in order to be at ease.

With Tao County Magistrate's visit with a heavy gift, the rumors in the city that Liu Ying is the "Living Hades" are self-defeating, and there are even rumors that Ran Jiqiu is a broken sleeve, and the Liu residence has always been quiet. Suddenly, many gentry came to visit.

After Mu Qiyuan arrived, he revealed Liu Ying's true identity, and those who heard the news couldn't hold back—that was Lord Hou!

As for why the majestic Dingbei Hou condescended to lead the horse and kick the horse for Young Master Ran in the Ran Mansion, even though they had many speculations in their hearts, it was not enough for outsiders to understand, but they all worked together to open up the relationship with the Su family.Although Su Zirong was a good student, he targeted Ran Jiqiu several times. Besides, his visits to thousands of families were not ignored. This time Ran Jiqiu has Dingbei Hou as his backer, so the Su family can still get it?

This kind of reaction was all expected by Liu Ying.

He wasn't worried that Su Zirong would cause any disturbances, but the academy needed to pay a visit.On the other hand, if he wants to leave temporarily, he has to arrange another manpower to take care of the young master's safety.

So, when Liu Ying came back, Ran Jiqiu saw a dozen people behind him, among them were some elderly women.

Ran Jiqiu glanced curiously, and then heard Liu Ying point out to him one by one, all of them were old soldiers who followed Dingbeihou back then, and those women were their family members.

Liu Ying pointed to a woman and said to him, "This is Zhang Matchmaker. When we got married, she came to propose marriage."

Ran Jiqiu was stunned for a moment, then saw Matchmaker Zhang come forward to salute, looked at him with a smile, and said: "The young master is a good-looking talent, and he is a match made in heaven with Lord Hou."

Ran Jiqiu's face turned red immediately, but he still saluted Matchmaker Zhang earnestly, thanking her for the matchmaking.

Matchmaker Zhang did not evade, and accepted this gift alive.

Liu Ying said again, "They are all trustworthy old people, let them follow during this time, if there is anything you want to do, just tell them."

He made such an arrangement because he was worried that Wanjiagou would jump over the wall in a hurry, which would be detrimental to Ran Jiqiu.Although it seems that the Wanjia can't make any disturbances, it's always better to be considerate in everything.

Ran Jiqiu nodded.

"At the academy, County Magistrate Tao went to talk to Xiang, and he will be able to go to school in about the next day."

Ran Jiqiu was not happy when he heard the news that he could go to the academy, he just looked up at him and asked in a low voice, "You, when will you come back?"

Liu Ying touched the back of the young master's neck, his palm was attached to the delicate skin and he was reluctant to leave. After a while, he sighed and said in a hoarse voice, "You are well at home, I will be back soon."
