After Cheng Xingqiu sent people over, he walked back and forth on the corridor, constantly looking into the distance, but he still couldn't see the beautiful figure he was thinking of.
The eldest princess was taking a nap at the moment. According to usual habits, it would take about half an hour before she woke up. He deliberately chose the corridor to meet Ruan Yuyi. This place was far away from the bedroom, so Zhao Rong would not see her.
As for the main room with Mrs. Cheng and Zhu present, it is even more inconvenient to talk than the west wing.
A figure in a light pink skirt turned out from the path and walked towards him.
Noticing that the maidservant he had sent was back, he took three steps at a time to greet him. When he looked again, he saw no one else behind the maidservant. His heart sank slightly, and he frowned and said, "Why don't you see Ruan?"
Shi, have you fully informed her?"
She knew that she could not bear this responsibility, so she hurriedly repeated Ruan Yuyi's words to him.
One day the husband and wife promised him a hundred days of kindness, but it turned out that she was so unwilling to see him, and thought he could coax her to come with He Lishu.
This little lady is truly a heartless mistress.
Cheng Xingqiu smiled coldly, and there was so much self-deprecation in it that only he himself knew clearly.
These days, he has never tried anything soft or hard. He thought he had given her enough choices, but he didn't know that the always obedient little lady could really get angry and do this.
Now, I actually vaguely miss the Lingling who would laugh and act coquettishly with him.
His hand holding the document tightened again and again, and after a long while, he handed the thing to the maid, "Go and take it to Mrs. Ruan. In addition, he told her that I have arranged to send a letter to the Ruan family in Wuzhou, telling her not to worry.
.”
"Yes." The maid agreed and walked away.
In fact, no letter was sent to the Ruan family. It was just to reassure her. In the past, when the Ruan family was at its peak, I heard that they were very pampered to this little daughter. Now if this matter were spread, it would be difficult to protect the Ruan family.
If a person is distressed, he will not take his little daughter back.
He couldn't let the Ruan family ruin their next plan.
Cheng Xingqiu stood with his hands behind his hands, and suddenly felt that his whole body was empty, as if the wind was blowing by his side, but except for lifting his hair, his clothes and sleeves did not move, as if the wind had never passed.
He couldn't blame the wind for being ruthless, he could only blame himself for standing on the porch, wanting to feel the wind while coveting the warmth here.
It's a pity that he doesn't know this truth.
"My eldest son," Bai He stepped forward and interrupted his thoughts, "Your Highness is awake and is about to see you."
Why did he wake up so early today? Cheng Xingqiu put aside his doubts and said, "Okay, I'll go there right now." With a smile in his eyes, he followed Bai He to the bedroom.
However, Ruan Yuyi and Aunt Mei were in the middle of their conversation. Before they could finish a word, they saw the maid in the west chamber came with two documents. Seeing this, Mu Xiang hurriedly waited on the pen and ink.
She got up and went to the desk under the window coffin, unfolding the paper and the book. The paper was made of fine gold-sprinkled rice paper, with a light yellow color, so as to ensure that it would not deteriorate over the years.
The same content was neatly transcribed above, all of which were telling how good their life was, how the two of them respected each other as guests, and finally attributed all the reasons to the sentence "a shallow relationship".
Ruan Yuyi looked at those handwritings in fascination. Later and Li Shu were used to show others, and others believed the absurd words above. Only she knew that this was not the case. So in the future, what will happen to the grievances she suffered in the Cheng Mansion?
Only the Tao and other people will believe it?
Although reconciliation respects the wishes of the couple on the surface, since ancient times, women have rarely been given the power to propose reconciliation. In the final analysis, the marriage is still in the hands of the man, and divorce is just more honorable than a letter of divorce.
Just some.
Therefore, she also knew that the fact that she could obtain the He Li Shu so smoothly was not something she could do alone. It was just——
Seeing Ruan Yuyi's hesitation, Aunt Mei on the side only thought that she still cared about the eldest son, so she comforted her, "Whether he was involuntarily or not, it turned out that he betrayed you first. At this point, why should you keep thinking about it when you can break it off earlier?"
Yes, it’s good for you too.”
If she could have thought of this level back then, she wouldn't have to face a husband who has no feelings anymore, let alone her husband.
Aunt Mei's eyes were filled with loneliness.
This young lady has a good heart. She doesn't want Yuyi to end up in her situation, so she tries to persuade her with all her heart.
"Auntie is right." Ruan Yuyi knew that she had misunderstood her thoughts, but she did not refute, but followed her words.
She dipped the pen in the ink and scraped it twice along the edge of the inkstone to remove the excess ink. Without any hesitation, she wrote her name fluently.
In this way, their friendship should have come to an end.
She put down her pen and turned to look at Aunt Mei with a smile on her face, as if begging her for praise.
Seeing that Ruan Yuyi was in a relaxed mood, Aunt Mei let go of her tense heart and smiled back at her. Looking at Yuyi, Aunt Mei seemed to see the shadow of her own youth in her, but this little lady was taller than her.
Much more decisive.
It seemed like her worries were in vain.
If you calculate it carefully, although Yuyi is older than her sister Ying, she is still old enough to be Yuyi's mother. Thinking of this, her expression softened a bit.
"It's a pity that Sister Ying is weak. She has not eaten since she was a child, so she took pills first. I am afraid that she will be over the illness and Miss Ruan, otherwise I will definitely ask Sister Ying to come and pay homage to you." She is.
I am really happy with this cousin.
Ruan Yuyi casually responded with a few polite words, and then asked Muxiang to fetch a purse. She took it and handed it to Aunt Mei, "Both Sister Ying and the fetus in Auntie's belly will be healthy. Auntie must not be too bad."
Worried."
Aunt Mei thanked her, opened her purse and took a look. Through the light, she saw a corner of jade faintly exposed inside. Her heart moved slightly. At that time, she only thought that Yuyi said it casually, but she did not expect that she actually went to the temple to pray for her.
Here comes the jade pendant.
While the maid put away her pen and ink, Aunt Mei had a few more heart-to-heart conversations with her, and then she said goodbye and left.
With one less thing to worry about, Ruan Yuyi naturally sleeps much easier.
Tomorrow, Mrs. Cheng Zhu was busy planning the marriage between Zhao Rong and Cheng Xingqiu, so she had no time to meet her to pay her respects. She slept peacefully until daybreak the next day, and then woke up leisurely.
"Miss, you're awake." Although Mu Xiang was on duty today, Mu Ling was so excited when he thought about going out to release paper kites later that he had to follow Mu Xiang in.
Her chirping made Ruan Yuyi wake up immediately, and she went on to wash and dress herself up. Mu Ling was watching from the side, as if he had never seen her before, her eyes full of freshness.
Ruan Yuyi couldn't stand her wandering around like this, so she dismissed her, "Mu Ling, go and get those two kites. I'll be fine here soon."
Mu Ling agreed happily and walked out of the room briskly.
But as soon as the wood spirit left, she suddenly felt that the surrounding area was a little deserted, and she remembered the noisy wood spirit.
