Chapter 752: Talked About All Sorts Of Things With Her…
When Liu Ran came out from the bathroom, he saw that only Ye Liu and Ye Mo were underneath the roof and that they were talking about something with each other.
“Brother Liu, I’ve finished bathing, you guys can go bathe now.” Liu Ran went underneath the roof cheerfully. His big round face had turned very red because of his bath and it looked very cute.
“Tsk, our Ran Er has become more handsome. In the future, large swaths of single ladies from other families are going to go crazy over you.” Ye Liu looked at him and laughed.
Liu Ran had changed quite a lot recently. Not only did he grow taller and rounder, but his skin had also gotten much fairer. He was very different from how he was in the past where his skin looked yellow and he was all skin and bone.
He had also acquired the special qualities of a scholar because he went to school.
Being praised made Liu Ran embarrassed and he smiled shyly. Although he was young he knew a lot. “Brother Liu, don’t make fun of me.”
When Ye Ling came out of the kitchen, he saw Liu Ran chatting with Ye Liu and Ye Mo so he looked to his side and said to Liu Duo, “Duo Er, Ran Er finished bathing. It’s your turn to bathe.”
As he spoke, he took an empty bucket and prepared to get hot water for her.
Not far away, Ye Mo immediately said from underneath the roof, “Ling, I will bathe first tonight.”
He felt that, if Liu Duo bathed fist and went back to her room…how would they get in if she locked the door? He didn’t need to think to know she would put up her guard against him and Liu.
After all, she was still mad that they widened her bed before asking her and that they hadn’t changed it back. His only choice was to bathe first and then go wait on the fourth floor. This way, he wouldn’t need to worry about not being able to enter her room!
Ye Ling heard what Mo said and he was stunned momentarily. He looked at Ye Mo.
After all, his three older brothers very rarely suggested that they should bathe first.
At this time, Ye Liu said, “Ling, ignore what Mo said. After Little Duo finishes bathing, she will be able to spend time chatting with Ran Er. He hasn’t seen her for so many days so he definitely has a lot to say to Little Duo, right?”
He looked at Liu Ran as he spoke and those attractive peach blossom eyes of his were extremely good looking.
He knew Ye Mo’s intention but there was no need to be so deliberate. Otherwise, he would try to do something he thought was clever but was actually foolish and lessen their chances even more!
In response, Liu Ran nodded excessively. “That’s right, I have a lot of things to say to sis as I haven’t finished just now.”
Ye Mo didn’t understand the intention behind what Liu said and he initially wanted to say more. However, he saw that Ye Liu kept giving him signs with his eyes and only then did he shut his mouth.
Later, after Liu Duo had finished bathing, Liu Ran pulled her into his room and talked about all sorts of things with her…
“Ran Er, do you want to take the imperial exam? Do you want to be a certified student, a first-degree student, or a top-scorer?” Liu Duo asked her while she smiled at him.
She felt Liu Ran was quite talented in academics. He could easily draw inferences about other cases from one instance. If he were born in the twenty-first century, he would be a proper modern top-student.
Liu Ran had never thought of this before. When he heard what she said, he asked back, “Then, does sis want me to take the exam?”
He had always admired people who could write and were educated. He never would’ve thought he would one day be able to study. Moreover, he now even had the chance to take the imperial exam or other exams.
In response to this question, Liu Duo patted him on the head and said, “If Ran Er wants to, sis will definitely support you! But you need to know there are officials who are honest and those who are corrupt.”
“When one is granted an official post, there will always be all sorts of temptations. Are you able to always keep true to yourself?”
Truth be told, Liu Ran didn’t really want Ran Er to enter the bureaucracy. After all, the bureaucracy was like a battlefield and working there wasn’t easy.
