Chen Yize saw Fu Zhao's face turning pale and quickly said, "Fifth Aunt, I'm just talking nonsense. Don't take my words to heart."
Fu Zhao came back to his senses and raised a gentle smile, "I know, when the sun gets stronger, I won't keep you any longer."
Chen Yize glanced at the sun outside and nodded hurriedly.
If you stand outside for a while, you will faint from the heat.
He saluted Fu Zhao and hurried back.
After Chen Yize left, the smile on Fu Zhao's face disappeared.
She huffed, "I'm sleepy too."
Liangsui quickly helped her take a lunch break.

Su Yurong came out of Su's house. Mrs. Su was sick and she had to come back for a visit.
Since the last time Fu Zhao brought her back and caused a scene, the Su family didn't dare to treat her like they did before, and they kept saying she was a loser.
But their unkind looks still hurt Su Yurong's heart.
Su Yurong looked at her mother, put down the supplements and left quickly.
She really didn't understand why her mother could be so unfeeling towards her, even though she was also the flesh that fell from her mother's body.
If Fu Zhao hadn't stood up for her last time, I'm afraid she would have been plotted by the Su family to the point where no one would be left alive.
She sat in the carriage of the Marquis Mansion and sighed quietly.
The Hou Mansion gave her a place to stay, but that was all.
Fu Zhao said before that he would see her get married.
But now Fu Zhao is pregnant, and it seems that she is not in good condition. She has consulted the doctor several times.
How could she disturb Fu Zhao's rest with her own affairs?
When she thought of marriage, she thought of that person.
Although that man was already married, she still couldn't forget him.
Xiaotian suddenly pushed Su Yurong, startling Su Yurong, and said with a black face: "What's the big deal?"
Xiaotian didn't speak, but pointed out of the carriage window.
The curtain of the car window was blown aside at some point. Su Yurong looked over and saw the face that was thinking about it day and night.
She couldn't help but blush, and affection appeared in her eyes.
But then he thought that it was really shameful for him to look like this, so he quickly lowered his head.
But her red neck couldn't be hidden no matter what.
Dong Xiu, who had experienced human affairs, understood Su Yurong's affection for him very well.
Su Yurong's tenderness and little touches all fell in Dong Xiu's eyes. Dong Xiu liked this kind of woman very much, so he didn't have the heart to refuse Su Yurong's previous hints, but instead enjoyed it very much.
His marriage was arranged by his grandmother, who was a fierce and cheerful person, completely different from what he expected.
What he likes is Xiaojiabiyu like Su Yurong.
I went out to relax today, and I didn't expect to meet Su Yurong. It was a fate ordained by God.
Dong Xiu said: "Miss Su, why don't we find a quiet place to chat?"
Su Yurong's heart was beating like a drum, and she was very conflicted.
Dong Xiu is already married, so she should draw a clear line between herself and Dong Xiu.
But after struggling for a long time, she really couldn't bear to let it go, so she hummed softly.
Dong Xiu was overjoyed and quickly drove his horse to lead the way.
Xiaotian advised: "Girl, have you thought clearly? If you and Young Master Dong are seen in private, your reputation will be ruined!"
Similarly, Xiaotian knew that Su Yurong was deeply devoted to Dong Xiu, so she couldn't say more words of persuasion.
Su Yurong smiled bitterly, "If I refuse, I may regret it for the rest of my life."
Xiaotian said nothing more.
Dong Xiu went ahead and took the carriage to a remote place.
Su Yurong got off the carriage and followed Dong Xiu to the edge of the moat.
It's remote here and almost no one comes here.
There was a row of willow trees planted beside the moat. Standing under the shade of the trees, Su Yurong felt her heart calm down.
But when she saw Dong Xiu's handsome side face, her heart was beating so fast that it almost jumped out of her throat.
She quickly lowered her eyes, "What do you want to tell me?"
"How have you been recently?" Dong Xiu's voice was as gentle as ever.
Su Yurong smiled bitterly, "It's pretty good."
Dong Xiu instinctively took a step forward, closing the distance between the two of them, "But your expression betrays you, are you not doing well?"
Su Yurong's eyelashes trembled slightly and she was speechless.
In fact, she cried several times.
If she hadn't been wearing thick rouge and gouache today, everyone would have been able to see how haggard she looked.
Dong Xiu felt the same way: "She and I are just a matchmaker ordered by our parents. I am not living a good life either."
Su Yurong raised her head in surprise, and when she met Dong Xiu's warm eyes, her face suddenly burned up again.
Reason told her that she should not stay any longer, otherwise she would harm Dong Xiu and herself.
But things had come to this, and she couldn't bear to leave.
In desperation, Dong Xiu took Su Yurong's hand and said, "Don't you know whether I have you in my heart?"
Su Yurong almost fainted from shame.
She was ecstatic, it turned out that all this was not her unrequited love!
But when she thought that Dong Xiu was already married, she felt like a bucket of cold water had been poured on her head, and her heart ached even more.
She tried her best to take her hand back and said with a choked voice: "Mr. Dong, you have your wish...but it's too late..."
Dong Xiu quickly interrupted her, "Why is it too late? As long as you are willing, we can still be together."
Su Yurong raised her eyes and stared directly at Dong Xiu.
Dong Xiu was overjoyed and said, "I will go and tell my parents that I will take you as my concubine."
Seeing that Su Yurong was angry, Dong Xiu said quickly: "When you give birth to the child, I will make you my concubine! As long as I protect you, no one will dare to bully you!"
Su Yurong laughed angrily, "Who do you think I am? Mr. Dong, let's not meet again in the future."
When Su Yurong saw what Dong Xiu wanted to say, she interrupted him with a loud voice: "Just leave the best impression on the other party."
After saying that, Su Yurong walked away with a puff of sleeves.
Dong Xiu didn't understand why Su Yurong was angry.
According to Su Yurong's family background, being a concubine to him is already a high honor.
By then, under his protection, Su Yurong will definitely be able to live a smooth life.
But why is Su Yurong dissatisfied?
Dong Xiu couldn't understand.
Su Yurong trotted all the way into the carriage. Xiaotian quickly followed and asked the coachman to quickly ride back to the Hou Mansion.
In the carriage, Su Yurong was still angry.
Xiaotian tried to persuade her for a while, but then she saw Su Yurong crying sadly. She was startled, "Girl, what's wrong with you? What did Mr. Dong say to you?"
Su Yurong only focused on crying and couldn't listen to what Xiaotian said.
When she arrived at the Hou Mansion, her makeup was all stained and she was so embarrassed.

Fu Zhao woke up from his lunch break, ate some snacks, and stood at the door, staring at the yard in a daze.
The sun is very strong, you will definitely get hot and dizzy if you go out.
When she was about to enter the house, she saw Su Yurong running in.
