Lu Tao looked at his fist and said to Yunxi with some apologies: "I'm really embarrassed, I didn't hold back." ”

Yunxi looked at his father lying on the ground with a complicated expression, and then shook his head after a long time: "Forget it, I should have guessed that since my father let me marry into the royal family, I will never give up my glory and wealth, and moving to other county governments is equivalent to starting over, and my father will not agree." ”

"Even if you can only live in this kind of place now?" Lu Tao asked through the half-hidden window, looking at the somewhat mottled sky outside.

"Even if you can only live in this kind of place now. ”

Yunxi sighed and said to Lu Tao: "Let's go, it seems that this road is impassable." ”

Lu Tao shook his head: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have knocked him out, it would be much easier if he could compromise, whether it was with benefits or coercion, it was always possible to make him agree to leave here." ”

"Forget it. Yunxi was a little disheartened: "Let's go back, I'm a little tired......"

Looking at Yunxi's expression, Lu Tao could only nod: "Okay, let's get out of here." ”

......

I don't know when a large cloud came to the sky, covering half of the sky, and even the sun was blocked by the clouds, and I couldn't tell when it would rain.

Before coming out, Lu Tao and Yunxi threw Yunxi's father on the bed in the inner room, hoping that he would not remember anything when he woke up, so he would treat it as a dream.

Yunxi walked out, looked at the sky, turned his head to Lu Tao and asked, "What about Xiaorou, why didn't you see her?"

"Xiaorou went to see her mother, saying that she would come back later. ”

Yunxi nodded: "Then let's go directly to her, I don't want to stay here for even a while." ”

As he spoke, Yunxi looked left and right, wanting to find someone to ask where Xiaorou's mother was, but found that he didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, and there was not even a person in the courtyard.

Only one head carefully peeked at Yunxi and Lu Tao from behind a pillar in the corner, and when he saw Lu Tao's gaze, the head suddenly shrank back and disappeared.

"Xiaoyuan, what are you hiding there?" Yunxi also found the head, first shouted over there, and then turned back to Lu Tao and said, "That's my younger brother Rui Mingyuan." ”

Yunxi's younger brother Rui Mingyuan jumped out from behind the pillar at this time, and he laughed: "I suddenly remembered that my sister is already the princess, so I don't dare to come forward...... But what a delight! That bad woman knelt in the courtyard outside, looking like she was about to faint!hahaha!"

"What are you talking about!" Yunxi patted Rui Mingyuan angrily: "That's our nominal mother, didn't you say that you can't say that?"

Rui Mingyuan pursed his lips: "Sister, don't you think the same way? When that bad woman came, she bullied her sister a lot, but today I gave her a good lesson, don't worry, I saw someone feeding her water and shade, she can't die, but just like the father-in-law who stayed in the yard said, that bad woman can't escape the crime, and she must be taught a lesson!"

Yunxi shook her head: "I never thought of teaching her a lesson, okay, you take us to find Xiao Rou, she is at her mother's place, after moving to a new house, I don't know the way." ”

"Well said!" Rui Mingyuan nodded: "I know where it is!"

Following behind Rui Mingyuan, the three of them turned left and right, and soon arrived at a courtyard on the other side, the courtyard was not big, but there were many rooms, several small rooms were arranged from one side to the other in order from south to north, these rooms were arranged compactly, basically without leaving any extra space.

Rui Mingyuan didn't seem to have the habit of knocking on the door, he walked to a room near the south of his mouth, pushed the door and walked in: "Sister-in-law Zhang, my sister is looking for Xiaorou!"

The door of the room was not locked, and after being pushed open by Rui Mingyuan, the two people sitting on the bed behind him were revealed.

Xiao Rou seemed to have just cried, she saw Yunxi behind the door, and quickly wiped the overflowing tears with her hand: "Miss!"

Xiaorou's mother, Sister-in-law Zhang, saw that it was her own young master, and quickly stood up, and said with some trepidation: "Second young master, miss...... No, Your Royal Highness, it's all my fault, I forgot the time!"

Yunxi waved her hand: "Sister-in-law Zhang, you still call me Miss Number, I just came to see Xiaorou and Sister-in-law Zhang, thanks to you and Xiaorou's care." ”

As he spoke, Yunxi patted Rui Mingyuan's head: "Sister-in-law Zhang is a person who has a great kindness to me, remember to treat Sister-in-law Zhang well in the future, do you hear? Also, remember to knock on the door next time you come here!"

"Huh?" Rui Mingyuan looked at his sister in surprise: "No one has ever knocked on the door when I entered here......

Yunxi's subordinates added some strength: "If you want to knock it, you will knock it!"

"Good...... Okay......" Rui Mingyuan said, I don't know if I heard it in my heart.

Lu Tao took advantage of the fact that a few people were talking, so he had the opportunity to take a good look at this small house.

Inside, there was only a row of beds near the window, and there was no other furniture, only an oil lamp on the windowsill at most, the oil lamp was black, and I don't know what material it was made of, and the oil lamp with a layer of oil seemed to have not been lit for a long time.

The bed is covered with a layer of sheets and bedding, it seems that this small room is not Xiaorou's mother Sister-in-law Zhang lives alone, think about it, this house belonging to the Rui family is not big, put this big family and the rest of the slaves into it, whether it is the master's family or the slaves, unless the status is very high, it is really impossible to want a place for one person to live.

As he spoke, Yunxi sat on the long bed and began to talk to Xiaorou's mother, Sister-in-law Zhang, about some of her previous memories, and Rui Mingyuan seemed to be a little impatient, he looked at the clouds and leaves blown by the wind outside the window over and over again, as if he wanted to ride the wind and waves in the wind outside.

"Hey, what are you looking at?!" Xiao Rou quietly moved over and pulled Lu Tao's sleeve: "What's there to see here?"

Of course, Lu Tao wouldn't say that he just wanted to see what the Rui family's place was like, so he changed the subject: "What did your mother say to you? ”

"Hmph! Forget it!" Xiao Rou glanced at Lu Tao, and said angrily: "It's not my mother yet, she has to say those words that make people cry, she also said that it is very hard to live here now, and she often can't eat, and she also said that it would be good if I didn't follow Miss into the palace at the beginning." Mother didn't know who chewed the root of the tongue, thinking that it was the fault of the young lady, and the Rui family had fallen into such a situation, but what happened to this young lady? It's not the master's fault!"

Lu Tao thought about the head of the Rui family who was knocked unconscious by himself, if he wanted to say who should take the most responsibility for the decline of the Rui family, Yunxi's father should indeed bear the main responsibility, and pushed everything on a daughter who was pushed into the fire pit by himself, Lu Tao didn't know where he got his face.

Nodding, Lu Tao looked at Xiao Rou: "You are right, the reason why you are like this now is definitely not Yunxi's fault." ”

"But I don't blame my mother, she is an illiterate woman, she believes what others say, what's wrong with it? But ah, I don't want to come back again, I used to think about bringing some good things back to my mother, but now forget it!" Xiao Rou said angrily, the red circles under her eyes were also evaporated, and at this time, it happened that Yunxi and Xiao Rou's mother finished speaking.

followed Yunxi to the door, Xiaorou hesitated, but turned back to her mother and said, "Mother, I'm leaving." ”

"Well, let's go, remember to take care of Miss!" Sister-in-law Zhang showed a big smile: "Next time I come back, the clothes I prepared for you will be ready, and they will be handed over to you when the time comes. ”

"Got it!" Xiao Rou frowned: "Mother, take care of yourself!"

After saying goodbye, several people walked out of this small courtyard composed of slaves of the Rui family, until they could no longer see the entrance of the courtyard, Lu Tao looked back, and Xiaorou's mother, Sister-in-law Zhang, was still looking at this side.

"Sister!" When he was a little farther away from the next person's residence, Yunxi's younger brother Rui Mingyuan opened his mouth and asked, "Sister, are you ready to leave?" ”

Yunxi shook his head: "I won't eat here, it's better to go back early." ”

After a pause, Yunxi continued: "You have grown up, remember to take care of your family, and don't be idle all day long, there should be an industry in Wuyang at home, right? ”

"Uh...... Sister, I also know that those people are fox friends and dog friends, you can rest assured, now even if I want to mix with them, I can't do it, since our family has become like this, those people will never come to me to play again, I can see clearly, those people are some guys who see the wind and rudder, and it's not interesting to be with them!" Rui Mingyuan pursed his lips, as if he had a lot of whispers about those friends who abandoned him, and planned to die of old age and no longer interact.

Yunxi nodded: "It's good that you understand, only in the midst of adversity, is it a good time to see a person clearly, in short, think more about yourself, think about your family, and learn to do some business, there is no harm in it." ”

After thinking about it, Yunxi took out a dark sign from his arms and handed it to his younger brother: "If the family encounters trouble that there is really no way to get over, take this sign and hand it to the palace, I will see it." ”
