There is nothing wrong with Deng Ruyu.
The Duke of Guo reacted, glared at Deng Ruyue, and then smiled: "Hainan, right? What are your plans in the future?"
Lu Hainan's condition only improved on his wedding day. He drank the right medicine in the past two days and his health is getting better and better. However, he has been ill for many years and just wants to take good care of himself. He hasn't had time to think about the future... You can't tell the truth at this time.
In front of my father-in-law, I can't say that I have no enterprising spirit.
Besides, this is the Duke's Mansion, which can help him a lot. Lu Hainan pondered for a moment: "Take over the family business first and wait for a year or two before talking about it."
The Duke of Guo smiled and said: "Your father started practicing martial arts when he was five years old. Naturally, your body is not strong enough. Have you studied in these years?"
"I have read it." Lu Hainan mentioned the past with a wry smile: "Our hometown is remote and it is difficult to take the imperial examination. Later, when I became ill, I gave up the idea. Now... I can't even take the imperial examination."
participated."
Deng Ruyue suddenly realized: "That's it!"
A look of profound meaning.
Sun Huayao over there is already a candidate, and even if he no longer takes the exam, he can already donate his official position and become an official. No matter how you look at it, he is much better than Lu Hainan.
Luo Shi said: "Ruyue, something seems to have happened over there with your aunt, please go over and have a look."
He directly lifted the person out with a pole.
Deng Ruyue understood what her aunt meant, and she didn't dare to disobey her even if she didn't want to leave, so she quickly got up and left.
After she left, Deng Jiahua was not a person who liked to interject randomly, and everything went smoothly after that. The more they talked, the more congenial they became.
Aunt Sun saw the right opportunity, touched Luo Shi's side, and whispered a few words.
Luo Shi nodded: "Ruyu, go out for a walk with your aunt."
Seeing this, Lu Hainan hurriedly said: "Madam, don't rush back, I still want to talk to my father-in-law more."
If these words fall into the ears of caring people, they will inevitably think that he is too flattering. But Chu Yunli understands that he is purely trying to get her to spend more time with her biological mother.
The mother and daughter had not seen each other for several days. As soon as Aunt Sun arrived at a remote place, she held her daughter's hand and asked anxiously: "How is the Lu family?" She asked, but without waiting for Chu Yunli's answer, she quickly said: "There are no outsiders here.
Tell me the truth, has Lu Hainan's health really improved?"
"It looks better. I don't know if it can be cured." Chu Yunli reached out to touch the flowers beside her: "I'm not a doctor and I don't know how to treat diseases."
Aunt Sun stamped her feet anxiously: "What should we do?"
"I'm already married, what can I do?" Chu Yunli looked disapproving: "I married for joy, and I didn't become a widow. He can still accompany me back home, which is much better than expected. Humans can't
Too greedy."
Aunt Sun was speechless: "Ruyu, you are really open-minded. But... I am your biological mother. How can I not think too much about such a marriage?"
"What's the use of thinking about it?" Chu Yunli asked, "Can you bring me back, or can you think of a way to help me?"
Aunt Sun felt that it was strange to ask her daughter in front of her: "Ruyu, my aunt is incompetent, and you have been wronged."
"I don't blame you." Chu Yunli walked forward slowly: "I will go back to the Lu family soon, and there won't be many opportunities to come back in the future. Do you... want to leave here?"
Aunt Sun looked surprised: "Leave? Where did you go?"
Chu Yunli was not surprised at all. Aunt Sun was already the wife of the Duke of the country. She was no longer satisfied with her current status based on her original background.
"I just asked casually."
Aunt Sun whispered: "Lu Hainan... looks quite weak. Have you two consummated your marriage?"
Chu Yunli glanced sideways at her but didn't answer.
Aunt Sun thought her daughter was shy, so she continued: "You are already the wife of the Lu family. While he is still in good health, hurry up and get pregnant with a child. When he is gone, you will still have hope."
.”
"Auntie, you haven't thought about what if he dies in two days?" Chu Yunli emphasized: "I can come back and remarry without children. If I have children, what do you want me to do? Take the children with me.
If I remarry, who among these families in Beijing will want me?"
Aunt Sun frowned: "You can definitely keep the child, and the Lu family will raise it on their own. The Duke of Guo has kept its promise and agreed to the engagement even if it was a surprise. If you have another child, we will be considered as being kind and righteous. When the time comes, you can remarry.
, they have no reason to stop you anymore."
Chu Yunli looked her up and down.
Aunt Sun felt quite uncomfortable when she looked at her: "Why are you looking at me like this?"
"It's nothing." Chu Yunli turned to admire the chrysanthemums: "I just feel that you are quite willing to plan for me."
"Nonsense." Aunt Sun glared at her: "You are my daughter, and I only need your child. If I don't plan for you, who will I plan for?"
Chu Yunli stopped answering.
On the day when Deng Ruyu returned home in her previous life, she came alone because Lu Hainan was unconscious and turned directly into a living dead. Not to mention returning home, he couldn't even get up. At that time, everyone thought that Deng Ruyu could only be a widow.
It was a matter of time. After she returned to her parents' home, the middle door was wide open, but the mother-in-law who welcomed her was not as enthusiastic as she was today. And the Duke of Guo did not stay in the house to wait.
Therefore, after Deng Ruyu met Luo Shi, she went directly to find her biological mother. Aunt Sun cried while holding her daughter, and then took out a letter.
Aunt Sun asked a few more questions about whether Mrs. Lu was getting along well, and Chu Yunli responded casually. After a while, mother and daughter could no longer find anything to say.
"Here...I have a letter from you."
Chu Yunli turned her head and saw the envelope that Aunt Sun handed over in a veiled manner. The words "Ruyu personally opened" were written in elegant handwriting on the envelope.
It was exactly what Deng Ruyu received on the day she returned home in her previous life.
Chu Yunli reached out to take it and said, "Have you opened it?"
Aunt Sun looked unnatural: "When the letter came, you were kneeling in the main courtyard to beg for mercy after you changed the engagement. I... I also opened it myself for your own good. I originally wanted to ruin it,
But thinking about your relationship for so many years, it doesn’t make sense if you don’t understand it, and you have to give the other party an explanation.”
Listening to this, Chu Yunli opened the letter smoothly.
This letter was indeed written by Sun Huayao himself. It expressed his shock that the Duke of Guo's government had violated the marriage contract. He also said that he had tried to fight with the Duke of Guo in private to no avail. Later, he expressed that he could not let go of Deng Ruyu and made an appointment with her on the first day of the wedding.
They met at Shilipo outside the city and left the capital together.
To put it bluntly, it's an elopement.
The two have been in a relationship for several years. If Deng Ruyu had received this letter before getting married, she might have been brave enough to solve the case. Not only for herself, but also to make the plans of Luo and her daughter fail.
It's a pity that she didn't receive it. She didn't think that Sun Huayao, who was born in a poor family, would go against the Duke's government for her.
Aunt Sun looked at her indifferent eyebrows and said: "Ruyu, Huayao is a good boy with a bright future. When I saw this letter, I really wanted to catch him and give him a good beating. This idea was too stupid.
How can you ignore your future for the sake of your children's personal relationship? Your uncle has spent countless manpower and financial resources to allow him to study in peace. He is the hope of the Sun family's future...I can't let you destroy him."
Chu Yunli smiled half-heartedly: "Are you sure that I will go with him?"
"I..." Aunt Sun lowered her head: "I'm not sure. But everything is possible. If you are really so brave, how can I face my mother's family?"
Chu Yunli raised his eyes and looked at her: "So, in your eyes, your family is more important than me, right?"
"No!" Aunt Sun denied subconsciously: "How can you live a good life after you leave the capital with him? Marry into the Lu family, even if you become a widow, you can do it with only the dowry given to you by the Duke's Palace.
I have no worries about food and clothing. Maybe I can go back and remarry a sweetheart."
Chu Yunli snorted coldly.
Aunt Sun heard her dissatisfaction and said sincerely: "You are a lady of the Duke's palace. You have never experienced hardship since you were a child, so you think relationships are very important. You think that marrying someone you don't like is like the sky is falling."
of. but
Auntie is someone who has been there, and what I want to tell you is that feelings are not that important in a person's life. The most important thing is to live for yourself, live well, and not run around for life."
To a certain extent, her idea was not wrong, and Chu Yunli did not interrupt.
Aunt Sun didn't know if her daughter had heard it, so she continued: "In short, I won't allow you two to drop everything and leave. Even if you hate me, I will admit it."
"Okay." Chu Yunli collected the letter: "My cousin is a good person. If he has this kind of heart, I will be very satisfied."
Not all men in the world dare to make an appointment with the daughter of the Duke of Guo and run away. Sun Huayao has read books for so many years, so he naturally knows that it is a road of no return, but he still has this letter. Chu Yunli is talking about Deng Ruyu
sincere words.
"As long as you understand the truth." Aunt Sun looked around and saw that the maids were not around to eavesdrop, so she whispered: "You are already married and he has a fiancée. Remember to pay attention when the two of you interact with each other in the future.
Be sensible. Don't let anyone take advantage of you."
Chu Yunli turned around and left: "It's getting late, I have to rush back to the Lu family, that's it. From now on, you will be alone in the Duke's Mansion and take care of yourself. If you encounter any difficulties, remember to send someone to tell me.
.”
Aunt Sun looked at her back and asked in a loud voice: "Ruyu, did you listen to what I just said?"
Chu Yunli didn't look back: "I'm not a three-year-old child. I know what I'm doing. Just take care of yourself from now on and don't worry about it anymore."
These words made Aunt Sun very angry: "What are you talking about?"
Chu Yunli returned to the main courtyard and found Lu Hainan, and the two of them said goodbye together.
The Duke of Guo did not stop him. No matter how much he cared about his former brother's son and his current son-in-law, he could not hide the fact that Lu Hainan was a sick man with no fame at all. Such a son-in-law came to the Duke of Guo's Mansion.
It doesn't help at all, so there is really no need to put too much thought into it. After sending the person away, even if the wedding is completed, the Duke can go about his business.
The two walked out of the main courtyard, and Lu Hainan peeked at her expression. When the mother and daughter met, they might cry in private... Anyway, he didn't see the person beside him look sad at all.
Chu Yunli looked at the road under her feet: "You are not fully recovered yet. Watch the road and don't fall."
Lu Hainan couldn't laugh or cry.
While the two were talking, they walked around a bush of flowers and saw Deng Ruyue standing by the roadside.
"Second sister."
She smiled and came forward: "Second brother-in-law, I have something to say to my second sister."
Lu Hainan nodded and turned around to avoid it. Chu Yunli grabbed him and said, "There's nothing you can't listen to. Just stay! We have to go home in a hurry."
Deng Ruyue smiled half-heartedly: "I advise the second sister to let the brother-in-law leave. After all, there are some things that the brother-in-law will probably be angry at if he knows about it."
Chu Yunli raised her eyebrows: "For example?" What did she think of: "You want to say that I am a hot-tempered person who is always ready to attack my sisters?"
Deng Ruyue was stunned for a moment.
Chu Yunli raised her hand and slapped her hard and fast. After the slap, she blew on her fingers: "You don't need to tell me, I'll tell him myself."
Lu Hainan was dumbfounded.
Deng Ruyue felt the pain on her face and was so angry that she said, "I didn't mean to say this."
Chu Yunli was surprised: "Really?"
Deng Ruyue was beaten again and again, and she had already had enough. She was afraid that Deng Ruyu would not get on the sedan chair before, so she endured it. Today, she did not intend to endure it anymore. After she realized what she was doing, she rushed forward: "Deng Ruyu
, I’m not done with you.”
As he spoke, his sharp nails were already clawing at Chu Yunli's face.
Lu Hainan was shocked by this incident and subconsciously stepped forward to block it. However, he still remembered his identity and just raised his hand to block it without fighting back. The next moment, he felt a sharp pain on his face.
Chu Yunli pulled him away. Seeing the injuries on his face, she frowned and said, "Who asked you to come forward?"
Lu Hainan: "..."
He said naa: "You are my wife, I should protect you."
Chu Yunli's eyes had already fallen on Deng Ruyue: "The daughter of the Duke's Mansion is really well-educated." She turned her head and looked at Qiyue: "Go back to the main courtyard and tell your father and mother exactly what happened."
Deng Ruyue came here quietly. She originally wanted to mention the Sun family in front of Lu Hainan, which made the Lu family completely disgusted with Deng Ruyu... If the news of her attack on Lu Hainan reached her parents' ears, no matter what the reason for the attack,
She had to be punished. Seeing Qiyue quickly disappearing among the flowers and trees, her face turned pale: "Deng Ruyu, I know you have grudges against me, but... it was not my intention to marry into the Sun family. Then
It’s my father who is in charge.”
"Have you said enough?" Chu Yunli looked at her indifferently: "It's good enough not to block the way. If you stop me anymore, I will leave blood on your face!"
Deng Ruyue didn't take these words to heart: "You were the one who made the move first."
Seeing that she wouldn't let him go, Chu Yunli ran out of patience, grabbed her hair and pushed her out hard.
Deng Ruyue was unsteady on her feet, and before she could react after being pushed out, she had already fallen into the flowers and trees. What was even worse was that her forehead hit the flowerpot, causing a big swelling in an instant, and faint traces of blood oozing out.
.When she was hurriedly helped out by the maid, the pair of beautiful women had already disappeared under the arch.
She stared in the direction where the two disappeared and grabbed the maid fiercely: "You bastard!"
On the way back, Chu Yunli felt that the other person's eyes were always on her. She couldn't ignore it even if she wanted to. She opened her eyes and asked, "Is something wrong?"
Lu Hainan did not dare to look at her and asked tentatively: "Have you always been like this between sisters?"
The sisters from the farmer's family got into a quarrel and might get angry and take action. Unexpectedly, the ladies of the Duke's palace were also like this. Lu Hainan was surprised, and he always felt that the woman in front of him had a tenacity and strength that was inconsistent with her figure.
Decisive.
Seeing Xian Xian as weak and showing no mercy when attacking, Deng Ruyue was no match for her at all.
"I didn't do this before. I was forced to." Chu Yunli looked sideways at him: "I don't like her. Firstly, she stole my fiancé and even came to me to show off. Secondly, my cousin is a
A very good person, knowing that I was forced to get married by my elders, offered to give up my future and elope with me. To be matched with her... it was really aggrieved."
Lu Hainan felt a little stuck in his heart: "It was really not my intention to renew the engagement with the Duke. When I returned to the capital, I was in a daze all the way. My mother never told me what happened at home, let alone discussing it with me. No matter.
Believe it or not, ever since I learned about this engagement, I have never thought about fulfilling it." He lowered his head: "It's my fault that you lovers can't get married."
Chu Yunli didn't take what he said to heart and said to herself: "Anyway, I want to mess up this marriage."
Lu Hainan looked surprised, and then advised: "It's better to say goodbye?"
"It's none of your business." Chu Yunli thought of something and looked him up and down: "Don't forget, there is a contract between us. I am not your real wife!"
Lu Hainan was speechless: "I haven't forgotten. You helped me after all. I can't repay you for saving my life. I should protect you."
When Tian Tian returned home, it wasn't long after noon. Mrs. Lu personally greeted him: "Why don't you stay a little longer?"
"I don't want to stay." Chu Yunli yawned. She had dozed off all the way in the carriage and was very unconscious now: "I'll go back and take a nap."
Mrs. Lu didn't want to find her, so she grabbed her son and couldn't wait to ask after arriving in the outer study: "How has the Duke treated you? Is he cruel? Does the Duke look down on you?"
"It's all good." Lu Hainan looked at his mother in front of him. In fact, he really didn't want to get married to the Duke of Guo. Today, everyone in the Palace of the Duke seemed to be very friendly, but the contempt between his eyebrows was not concealed at all.
He was extremely unwilling to get along with such a family, but his mother really did it for his own good, so he really couldn't blame her.
Mrs. Lu was about to ask a few more questions when suddenly there were hurried footsteps outside, followed by a knock on the door. She immediately frowned. After her son and daughter-in-law came back, she specifically told the mother-in-law next to her.
However, when the two of them come back, they need to have a good talk with their son about the attitude of the Duke's government before they can make plans./p
As a result, the mother-in-law stayed at the door and did not stop the person who reported the message. She even helped knock on the door. It was obvious that something had happened.
"What's the matter?"
When asked this question, Mrs. Lu was a little impatient.
The mother-in-law sounded panicked: "Master, my cousin has just sought death. Come and take a look!"
Mrs. Lu was shocked. Without any time to think, she opened the door and ran in the direction of Jiang Huanli's yard: "How could this be?"
"I don't know, either. When the maid found out, my cousin had already been hanging on the beam for who knows how long." The mother-in-law said as she chased after her: "Master, please slow down and be careful not to fall."
Lu Hainan also hurriedly followed.
The daughter of the Duke of Guo's Mansion received a rich dowry. I came here for a few days in July and was not idle in private. I used the money to reward many people. The rules of the Lu family are not as strict as those of the Duke of Guo's Mansion. Therefore, it is almost
At the same time that the study outside the front yard got the news, Chu Yunli also heard about it.
She was no longer sleepy immediately!
In Jiang Huanli's yard, the maids were kneeling on the ground, and several of them were quietly wiping away tears. When Chu Yunli came in, she saw her and ordered: "It's so cold on the ground, let them all get up."
Qi Qiu whispered: "But the master has sought death. If they don't kneel down, they might be punished."
Don't do bad things with good intentions.
Chu Yunli raised her voice: "It's not them who caused my cousin to seek death. If you don't want to live, no one can stop you. It's completely unreasonable to blame them."
The maids looked over gratefully.
After something happened to the master, he was still the first person to speak for them. There are not many masters in this house, and he should be the only one.
Chu Yunli stepped into the door and immediately saw Jiang Huanli on the chair with a bruised neck. At this moment, she closed her eyes slightly and her face was filled with tears.
Mrs. Lu stood opposite her, with a heartbroken look on her face: "Huanli, no matter what happens, you can't do anything stupid! How can I be worthy of your mother if you are like this?"
Jiang Huanli shook her head slightly: "Aunt, you shouldn't have saved me. You should have let me die. Don't worry, I will tell my mother when I see her... You treat me like a relative. It's just a bit too much.
Well, I can’t bear to leave. The thought of leaving you and marrying someone else fills me with fear... It would be better to die."
Mrs. Lu stamped her feet: "Silly!"
Lu Hainan was weak and had just stepped through the door at this moment.
It was obviously Chu Yunli who came in first, but Jiang Huanli didn't even look at her. But as soon as Lu Hainan appeared, she opened her eyes and looked at the door. Before she said a word, she shed tears: "Cousin, I thought I would never see you again."
Lu Hainan looked complicated: "No matter what you did, I never wanted you to die."
"But... I'd rather die if I left my cousin." Jiang Huanli sobbed: "You all ignore me, I'm so scared. I can't help but want to go to my mother, so you can help me... Wuwuwu
…”
Chu Yunli wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief and sighed: "It's so touching." She turned her head and ordered: "In July, go to the hospital to grab a pair of rat medicine."
As soon as he said this, everyone looked over. Chu Yunli continued on by himself: "Cousin, if you drink more, it shouldn't hurt."
Jiang Huanli: "..."
