If you find that the text is missing, turn off the /transform/code/or/smooth/read/mode/ and you can read normally. Jiang Huanli’s face turned pale.
"Aunt, I'm not... I'm worried about my cousin."
"I'm his wife. It's as if I'm here to harm him." Chu Yunli reached out and pushed her: "I don't care how you got along with him before. Now that he has a wife, you have to remember
There is a difference between men and women. When we meet in the future, a maid must be present, and we should not get too close. Please remember that he and I are the closest people in the world, and no one can get in between us."
Jiang Huanli was a little at a loss: "Aunt, is she setting rules for our family?"
Chu Yunli smiled half-heartedly: "Cousin, you are a guest."
As soon as these words came out, Jiang Huanli's face became paler: "I have lived here for ten years, and you have only been here for a day. What you say is too much."
"Is there something wrong with what I said?" Chu Yunli looked at Madam Lu doubtfully: "Where is the mistake? Madam, please give me some advice!"
Mrs. Lu is still thinking about what she said about inviting famous doctors from the capital to diagnose and treat her son. She has had this child in her life. After the man leaves, this child will be her lifeblood. As long as he can get better, let alone tolerate it.
If you don't like a girl, she will be willing to kneel down to you.
She has been looking forward to it for too long and has been disappointed too much. Even if there is a slight chance, she is not willing to give up. Some doctors only look at family background, which cannot be compensated by money. Although Deng Ruyu is only the concubine of the Duke of the country, she has the Duke of the country.
With the name of the mansion, it is easier to recruit people than the ruined Lu family.
"You're right." Mrs. Lu forced out a smile: "In the past, I was only afraid that outsiders would hurt my son if he stayed here, and I didn't feel at ease if anyone was watching, so I asked Huanli and I to take turns guarding Huanli.
Growing up in a Lu family, I was a brother and sister from Hainan, so I didn’t even notice the difference between men and women. Now that I have you, the two brothers and sisters really can’t get too close."
She asked in a serious tone: "Huanli, listen to your cousin-in-law from now on."
Jiang Huanli was very unwilling, and her eyes were red with grievance. Seeing that her aunt who loved her in the past did not change her mind because of her stubbornness, she stamped her feet and said: "This woman just got started today, who knows what she has in store? What if she wants to
I want to kill my cousin and then remarry..."
Chu Yunli raised her hand and slapped all the medicine bowls, teapots and cups on the small table beside the bed to the ground with a quick and ruthless movement.
The sound of breaking porcelain was heard, and both of them were frightened. Chu Yunli said coldly: "Shut up!"
Jiang Huanli raised her chin slightly: "You are the daughter of the Duke of Guo. You definitely don't want to marry a sick man. Do you dare to say that you have no complaints in your heart about this marriage?"
"Even if there is, I will get on the sedan chair and get married." Chu Yunli said solemnly: "Your words are simply heart-breaking, not to mention whether I have as vicious a heart as you said. We are both women, who would want to
Are you going to be widowed after getting married?"
Jiang Huanli took a step forward: "Marriage matters depend on the orders of your parents. You don't dare to disobey your elders..."
Chu Yunli couldn't bear it anymore and slapped her hard.
Jiang Huanli was hit with disbelief: "You dare to hit me?"
In Mrs. Lu's shocked eyes, Chu Yunli sneered and said: "If you dare to slander me, I will beat you lightly. If you continue to talk nonsense and sow discord between our husband and wife, I will ask my wife to make the decision to drive out a bad guest like you."
"
Jiang Huanli subconsciously turned to look at her aunt.
Mrs. Lu was still thinking about asking her new daughter-in-law to hire a famous doctor for her son, so she scolded: "Huan Li, apologize to your cousin."
Jiang Huanli was so wronged that she burst into tears. She could just endure her sweetheart marrying someone else. How could she bear this?
She gritted her teeth, stamped her feet and ran out.
Mrs. Lu shouted twice, and the man ran faster. She looked at Chu Yunli and said apologetically: "Huanli is spoiled by me, don't take it to heart. In my opinion, Hainan is seriously ill. I
I'm afraid I'll get over your illness, so you better not stay in the same room at night...I know you're worried about him, but...all ladies are timid, and I'm afraid he'll scare you."
"No." Chu Yunli helped the person on the bed to tuck the quilt: "After I got married, he is my husband, and all my honor and disgrace are tied to him. I
No one will be afraid of him."
In short, she must stay here.
Mrs. Lu couldn't resist her, and because her daughter-in-law's status was too high to force her, and there were guests to entertain outside, she had no choice but to leave in frustration. However, before leaving, she left her capable mother-in-law beside her to keep an eye on her.
Chu Yunli noticed the gazes of the two women and ordered: "Go and prepare some food for me."
The newlyweds were all hungry. The two women looked at each other, and one of them retreated. The other one was still standing there.
Chu Yunli didn't even look back: "I'm not used to having people around me. Go down first. I'll find you if I have any orders."
The mother-in-law was about to speak but stopped: "Madam, I asked my servant to serve the young master here."
"You're not needed." Chu Yunli said in a stern tone, "Go down. If you don't obey me, then find two obedient ones."
When such words come out, the mother-in-law knows that she is really annoyed, so how can she dare to stay any longer?
If you can't keep him, you have to go to the madam to discuss countermeasures.
After the door was closed and the room became a little darker, Chu Yunli lifted the quilt of the person on the bed, checked him from head to toe, and then felt his pulse.
This man was weak, and although he had taken good care of himself, he seemed to have been poisoned. Today he even took some medicine that made him unconscious, so even though they had been arguing for a long time, there was still no movement from this man.
Chu Yunli took off the silver hairpin from his head, poked him everywhere on his body, forced out a few drops of blood from his fingertips, wiped it with a handkerchief, and tried his best to leave no trace.
Just after finishing, the door was pushed open before the quilt was covered. Chu Yunli turned around and saw that it was her mother-in-law who came in with food.
The mother-in-law walked around the screen and saw that the person on the bed was not covered with a quilt. She said in shock: "Young master is seriously ill and cannot bear the cold. What is madam doing?"
Chu Yunli lowered his eyes and pulled the quilt over the cover: "I see that he hasn't woken up, and I want to see where there are any injuries on his body. Where is the doctor in the house, go and ask someone to come over, I want to ask him later
Ask him about his condition."
The mother-in-law was about to speak but stopped: "You have to ask the old lady about this!"
Chu Yunli was stunned for a moment before she realized who the old lady she was talking about was. According to the current rules, if a young man becomes the head of the family, the elders must change their titles. The look of the old lady clearly means that Lu Hainan is
Head of the house.
A person who is lying unconscious in bed cannot take care of the family affairs. The Lu family is like this, which is probably Mrs. Lu's intention. After becoming the head of the family, no one dares to ignore him.
The food that was delivered was soft and tasted average. After Chu Yunli finished using it, when he took the soup that his mother-in-law had brought, he frowned slightly and then accidentally knocked over the soup bowl. Seeing this, the mother-in-law was a little surprised and also
I didn't say much, so I hurried forward to clean it up.
Chu Yunli misjudged the mother-in-law and knew that the medicine in the soup had nothing to do with her. She didn't know who actually gave her the sweat medicine... Was it to make her fall asleep for the night?
After working for a long time, Chu Yunli was a little tired. When her mother-in-law took away the food, she ordered: "There is no need to keep anyone vigilant. If you insist on staying, just stay outside and wait. By the way, you are not allowed to do so without my instructions."
Feel free to come in. If you don't understand what's being said, ask two people to wait on you."
The mother-in-law retreated.
Chu Yunli performed the acupuncture again, and a few more drops of blood were drawn out. She also wiped it with a handkerchief, and then slept on the bed.
There was no conversation all night, and the mother-in-law really didn't come in to disturb her. When it was dawn, Chu Yunli noticed movement from the people around her. She turned her head and met a pair of dark eyes.
Lu Hainan woke up.
He was in a daze for a while. Chu Yunli stood up and lit the candle. The person watching outside probably noticed the movement in the house, and soon there were footsteps.
Lu Hainan looked at her. The woman in front of him was wearing a bright red wedding dress, with beautiful features and an indescribable majesty. He tentatively asked, "Are you a girl from the Duke's residence?"
When she opened her mouth, her voice was hoarse. Chu Yunli lowered her eyes and looked at her wedding dress: "Do you know that you are about to get married?"
"I know!" Lu Hainan smiled bitterly: "This is not my intention...I am like this..." At this point, he couldn't help but choke and cough. People outside heard the noise and couldn't help but start knocking on the door.
Chu Yunli didn't let anyone in.
Come on, it took Lu Hainan a long time to stop coughing: "Marrying anyone is a drag."
In his previous life, Deng Ruyu never exchanged a word with him. The night they met, he fell into a coma. Little did he know that he had such a temper.
"I'm sorry." After coughing, Lu Hainan spoke much more smoothly and said with a wry smile: "This marriage contract was just a joke at the beginning. Don't worry, I probably won't live long. Before I leave, I will write a contract.
This engagement is over and you can go home and marry someone else."
After hearing these words, Chu Yunli looked surprised and looked him up and down: "Are you serious?"
Lu Hainan took a few breaths: "I don't have the energy to joke."
"That's true." Chu Yunli pondered for a moment: "I told your mother yesterday that I would ask the Duke's office to hire a doctor for you later. You will definitely get better."
Lu Hainan was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and laughed. His face was pale and he looked pitifully sick.
Chu Yunli thought of something, got up and went to the desk outside to get pen, ink, paper and inkstone.
All young masters will have these in their houses. Mrs. Lu must have wanted to make her son better, and she has not left these things behind. Chu Yunli polished her ink and said: "If you really let me go, you can write it down now as evidence."
Lu Hainan was stunned for a moment, laughed again, and started writing. He only said that the engagement between the two was made without his knowledge. He did not want to marry and would not touch Deng Ruyu. The engagement was void, but he was grateful to the Duke's office.
In keeping with the promise of friendship, she is willing to recognize Deng Ruyu as her sister of the opposite sex. When she gets married in the future, the Lu family will provide a dowry.
Chu Yunli was satisfied with what she saw and put away the paper. While she was drying it, the door was pushed open.
This thing cannot be seen by outsiders for the time being. Chu Yunli put it into his sleeve neatly. Because he moved too fast, he took out a handkerchief and dropped it.
The white veil was embroidered with pomegranates. It was prepared for the newlyweds, and it had a good meaning. The veil was originally rolled into a ball, but because the silk roll was too smooth and soft, it had spread out when it fell to the ground, and you could see the dark black color on it.
There were little blood stains on it. Chu Yunli quickly bent down to pick it up, but the appearance of the handkerchief still caught the eyes of those who entered the door.
Chu Yunli picked up the handkerchief and looked up, meeting Jiang Huanli's shocked gaze.
Jiang Huanli looked at Lu Hainan who was half leaning on the bed, then at Chu Yunli, and screamed: "You are shameless!"
"There are no rules!" Chu Yunli looked at the person on the bed: "You, my cousin, have very bad rules. Even if you don't knock on the door when you enter my brother's house, you still accuse me like this. Otherwise, I will go back to the palace to ask for a nanny.
Teach her the rules?"
After Lu Hainan just finished writing the deed, he was surprised to realize that he seemed to have more energy today, and his mind was not as groggy as before. He was in shock. After hearing this, he came back to his senses and looked at Jiang Huanli at the door.
With a bit of complexity: "Cousin, you really shouldn't go into my house directly. Remember to knock on the door when you turn around."
He looked at Chu Yunli again: "My cousin is no longer a child and can understand. You are from the Duke's palace and you are your sister-in-law. If there is something wrong with her, just give her a lesson. It is really not easy to work for outsiders."
After all, I still want to protect Jiang Huanli.
After having been in a relationship for many years, Chu Yunli didn't expect this person to be on her side as soon as she woke up. She looked at Jiang Huanli: "Cousin, do you remember?"
Jiang Huanli's eyes fell on her sleeves.
Chu Yunli followed her gaze and looked at her left hand, where the handkerchief just now was stuffed. If she realized something, she turned back and smiled at Lu Hainan: "Husband, are you hungry? I'll have someone pass on breakfast."
, I have to go to say hello later."
Jiang Huanli said in a trembling voice: "My cousin is weak and can't get out of bed at all. How can I say hello to you?"
"If he can't come down, the rules must not be broken. I will go find my mother to pay my respects myself." Chu Yunli raised his voice and asked his mother-in-law to deliver the meal, and then said with a smile: "Cousin, we and my husband are going to have a meal this morning, why don't you wait here?
It's appropriate. According to the rules, you should go to the main courtyard and wait for me."
Jiang Huanli looked at her deeply: "I thought the girl from the Duke's Mansion was reserved, but I didn't expect...my cousin is so weak, how could you do it?"
These words were very inappropriate for an unmarried girl to say. Jiang Huanli also knew that she should not say these words. Before she finished speaking, she had already turned around and ran away.
Chu Yunli turned around, half-smiling but not smiling: "Husband, she misunderstood, do you want to explain?"
Lu Hainan also saw the handkerchief on the ground, and didn't know where the blood stains on it came from. There were differences between men and women, and they were not familiar with each other at all. He didn't want to ask more, so he just said: "Don't worry about her." After a pause, he continued.
: "I know her affection for me, but my life is not good, so I'd better not drag her down."
Chu Yunli was thoughtful, which meant that Lu Hainan didn't have any affection for this cousin.
The two had breakfast together, and Chu Yunli sat opposite him, showing no intention of getting close to him. Seeing this, Lu Hainan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The woman in front of him is marrying at a low price, so if she insists on getting closer to him, he will not be able to refuse her.
After finishing breakfast, Chu Yunli went to the small room to change into a set of red clothes, and looked at him with a smile: "Do you want to go with me to say hello?"
Although Lu Hainan was not as dizzy as before, he did not feel that he could get out of bed. He shook his head and said: "Go ahead!" If he insists on getting out of bed, if he falls or faints again, he will cause harm to those around him.
Add chaos.
"Why don't you give it a try!" Chu Yunli said, and ordered the two women outside to come in: "I feel that your husband is much better. You go and try to help him."
The mothers-in-law looked at each other, and Lu Hainan waved his hand: "I don't want to try."
"I'm here for the joy, and I always want people to see you get better." Chu Yunli stepped forward personally, put his legs on the ground, put his shoes on him, and put his arms on her shoulders.
As soon as he exerted force on his hands, Lu Hainan stood up completely.
He instantly felt that standing up this time was completely different from before. Although his legs were still weak, they would not be unable to support the weight of his body and fall to the ground like before. He tried to take two steps forward.
After that, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at Chu Yunli with surprise: "Is it really useful to be happy?"
Chu Yunli lowered her eyes and took a step back: "I'm not good at helping others, so I'd better let them take care of you."
Lu Hainan stood up. He saw someone at the door and immediately ran to the main courtyard to report it. When Mrs. Lu heard the news, her face was filled with disbelief. She was sure that the maid had not lied to her. She was so happy that she didn't even bother to ask her daughter-in-law to serve tea.
He rushed towards his son's courtyard.
When she rushed to the door of the courtyard, Lu Hainan had already stepped out of the room and walked to the corridor. The mother and son looked at each other, and they both saw tears in each other's eyes.
Jiang Huanli stood behind Mrs. Lu, shocked by this.
Chu Yunli smiled half-heartedly: "Cousin, your husband has stood up, you seem unhappy?"
Lu Hainan came back to his senses, looked helpless, and whispered: "You should call me Hainan from now on!"
Chu Yunli followed the good advice: "Hainan, if you feel tired, don't hold on. Mother is here, and there are no other masters at home, so we don't need to go to the main courtyard to say hello."
"Yes!" Mrs. Lu hurriedly came forward: "Don't stand for too long, go back and sit down quickly." Thinking of something, she turned her head and ordered: "Go and find Dr. Li."
Some people went to sit down again in the room. Jiang Huanli never left Lu Hainan's eyes and kept looking at him all over. Just as he was looking at him carefully, his sight was suddenly blocked by a slender figure. He raised his head and met the face of his newly arrived cousin-in-law.
look.
Chu Yunli smiled and said: "Cousin, I have a bad temper and am also jealous. I only need a few glances to get it."
Jiang Huanli looked pale: "I'm happy that my cousin is getting better. Let's see what happens later. When I came to the Lu family, you didn't know where you were."
Chu Yunli reminded: "When we got engaged, he wasn't even born yet. The two of us got married much earlier than you did."
"It's not you who made the engagement." Jiang Huanli blurted out: "If it hadn't been for the trouble in the general's palace, and the person who married her was the legitimate daughter of the Duke's palace, you wouldn't be worthy at all."
"Whether I deserve it or not, I am his wife now. Don't say you are just a cousin. Even if you are his biological mother, I will not be happy if you see him too much." Chu Yunli turned to look at Lu Hainan: "Do you think I did the right thing?
What?"
Lu Hainan has been ill for several years, and he is getting better today. Although he is happy in his heart, he is also afraid that he will not be able to respond to Jiang Huanli's feelings, so he immediately lowers his eyes: "Yes."
He again
When he raised his head, his eyes had calmed down: "Cousin, I have already married. You are already sixteen this year, so it is not good to delay any longer." He looked at Mrs. Lu: "Mother, you can find a matchmaker to choose for your cousin later.
A suitable marriage."
Jiang Huanli's eyes gradually filled with tears, but she stubbornly refused to wipe them away and just looked at him: "Is this your sincere words?"
"Yes!" Lu Hainan didn't look at her. He looked up and saw the doctor approaching. He immediately put his hand on the table, as if he was waiting to feel his pulse.
Jiang Huanli was worried about his condition and did not leave. He sat there biting his lip.
Doctor Li stepped forward, bowed and took his pulse, and looked surprised: "Young Master has indeed improved a lot." As he said this, he looked at his whole body: "May I ask what you have used since last night?"
How could Lu Hainan know this?
Mrs. Lu immediately found someone to serve him. During this period, she ate the same food as before and drank the same medicine as before. Except for the fact that one of the bowls of medicine was given by Jiang Huanli himself, there was no other abnormality.
Nothing is wrong unless there is any abnormality. I can't find out what is beneficial to his condition. It's hard to say whether it will get better in the future. Mrs. Lu frowned: "Is it really because of happiness?"
"It must be!" Chu Yunli said plausibly: "My aunt always said that I am a little lucky star."
Jiang Huanli muttered: "Shameless."
Chu Yunli raised her hand and slapped her.
A crisp slap came, and everyone in the room was stunned. Jiang Huanli screamed: "You hit me again."
"I said, if you disrespect me again, I will not only beat you, but also kick you out." Chu Yunli looked at Mrs. Lu: "She obviously doesn't take me seriously and provokes me again and again. Today there are
She doesn’t have me, she has me but she doesn’t. It’s up to you!”
Mrs. Lu: "..." What can we do?
No matter what she does, there is no way she can kick out the daughter of the Duke's Mansion! Then, she can only drive Jiang Huanli away.
"Ruyu, you have such a bad temper. Huanli did something wrong. As my sister-in-law, you can just give me a few words of reprimand. You should be more patient with your sister." Before he could finish his words, he met his daughter-in-law's displeased gaze.
, she leaned down and complained secretly, and looked at Jiang Huanli: "I'll pour tea for your sister-in-law and apologize! Hurry up!"
Jiang Huanli bit her lip stubbornly, and her tears kept falling like broken beads: "Aunt, she...my cousin is so weak, and she actually consummated the marriage with my cousin!"
Mrs. Lu was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed.
She was already prepared to send the white-haired man to the black-haired man, but she didn't expect that her son could actually have sex with a woman. Doesn't this mean that he can leave an heir to the Lu family before leaving?
Then she felt something was wrong. How did Jiang Huanli know about the affairs between the couple?
She scolded: "This is impossible."
Jiang Huanli knew that she didn't believe it. After all, Lu Hainan was unconscious yesterday afternoon, as if he was about to die. It would be like a fantasy to let such a person consummate their marriage.
She cried: "I saw it with my own eyes."
Mrs. Lu: "..." This is even more impossible!
