Chapter 165: I Wish People Were Long (3)
Ruan Qingyu went out early in the morning and returned late at night, and she kept keeping a low profile just because she didn't want to be ignored, and she was still walking with her head down, but Zhang Xuanyi's sudden appearance startled her unexpectedly.
"Little, sister-in-law? It's really late, is my sister-in-law going out so late? ”
"I've been playing in the market, and when I got home, I found that the jade pendant was missing, and I thought I lost it in the market. I'm naturally nervous about what my brother sent, and I'm about to rush over to find it. It's just that Qingyu's sister-in-law only came back in this big night? ”
Ruan Qingyu did not directly answer Zhang Xuanyi's question, but first turned the conversation and asked her where she was going. Zhang Xianyi had already prepared the excuse of going out, remembering that in recent days, she had not been able to see this new sister-in-law in the house, and Zhang Shaoqing had not seen her sticky anymore, and now she was in a hurry and returned late at night, so she couldn't help but feel a little more worried. The more euphemistic Ruan Qingyu was, the more Zhang Xuanyu had to ask questions without stopping, until he stared at the other party and refused to take his eyes away, and then heard Ruan Qingyu chuckle.
"Why, I just came back late after a delay in a ready-to-wear shop, and my sister-in-law was going to forcibly interrogate me? I haven't heard Shaoqing say anything about not allowing me to leave the house. ”
"How could it be, it's just ordinary gossip, where did it come from, what forcible interrogation. My sister-in-law is really hearty, and it's also strange that she can't speak. ”
Ruan Qingyu's answer was both soft and hard, but Zhang Xuanyu was embarrassed first, stepped forward and took the other party's hand and said softly.
"My brother has always been responsive to my sister-in-law, and you can go wherever you want. Yi Yi is just worried about your safety. Although the curfew has been lifted in the city at the moment, it is always dangerous for only two women to be out late at night, so my sister-in-law should not misinterpret my mind. ”
"How come, what my sister-in-law said is right, I should take care of myself and not let Shaoqing worry. It seems that in the future, if you want to get together with your family, you will directly invite them to the house. ”
"Oh? Uncle Ruan sent someone to visit his sister-in-law again? ”
"Yes, my father heard that I had been a little weak recently, so he specially arranged for the nurse and the doctor who have been taking care of me since I was a child to visit. Originally, I felt that it was really troublesome for them to arrange for people to bring things into the house, so they simply arranged people in the Chundu Restaurant in Fang City. I didn't expect to forget the time when chatting with the two old men, which made my sister-in-law worried. ”
"That being the case, sister-in-law should take care of herself. I haven't seen it for a few days, but I seem to have lost some weight. I just talked to my brother. He was also distressed. ”
Speaking of Zhang Shaoqing, Ruan Qingyu's expression was awe-inspiring, and there seemed to be a moment of unnaturalness in her shy and timid appearance, but fortunately, the lights were dim and no one would notice. She smiled slightly and said, "It's okay." Don't worry". More intimately, pat the back of Zhang Yiyi's hand a few times to show closeness.
"That's right. I just met my brother. He had drunk more wine tonight, and he was uncomfortable for a while, and he should be asleep now. There is still a sister-in-law to take care of tonight, others are always not as good as you. ”
"Okay, why are you drunk?"
Hearing that Zhang Shaoqing was unwell, Ruan Qingyu still couldn't hide her worry, but as soon as this sentence was asked, she didn't wait for Zhang Xianyi to respond, but she changed her voice first.
"Don't worry, just go and go about your own business, I will take care of Shaoqing. You, what do you say about working or not, the duty of a wife, since it is a family, I am not so delicate and do not know how to take care of my husband. ”
She took the initiative to put herself within the scope of the "family", and another little joke dispelled Zhang Xuanyi's embarrassment, until the two gossiped a few more words before saying goodbye and parting.
In the unexpectedly dark night encounter, Zhang Huiyi and Ruan Qingyu left in two directions, and the smiles on their faces still did not fade, but they had their own strange plans in their hearts.
Zhang Xuanyi tightened the cloak on his shoulders, secretly wondering that Ruan Qingyu had rarely appeared in the mansion recently, and the Ruan family came to visit too often at the same time. She didn't fully believe Fang Cai's explanation, especially the look and attitude that Ruan Qingyu showed in her words. Her Qingyu sister-in-law should obviously be a weak, delicate, and submissive eldest lady, but why hasn't she seen her for a few days and has become a little sharp now.
Ruan Qingyu on the other side only left a noncommittal slight wry smile in the dark night. She doesn't care about where Zhang Yiyi wants to go or what she wants to do, she is just a little sad, what is the meaning of "my brother is also distressed"? She never knew that a husband's distressed love for his wife needed to be conveyed by her sister-in-law. She was never stupid, she was used to deceiving herself in the past, but she couldn't continue like this in the future.
The Zhang family's way of governing the family is quite strict, the whole Zhang Mansion is like a strict iron bucket, no matter how wind and rain outside the house, the Zhang family is always calm and follows the rules from top to bottom. Even if Zhang Shaoqing's wedding ceremony had a big incident, the Zhang family's mansion after the ceremony was still orderly and peaceful, no one mentioned the turmoil of the wedding ceremony, let alone the name of the Yin family's daughter, Ruan Qingyu was the only lady in the mansion, and everyone acquiesced.
Although this lady refused to take charge of affairs and rarely showed up for the first month, after a month, she suddenly became like a different person. Not only did she repeatedly clarify her identity as "Mrs.", but she also took the initiative to manage and rectify the internal affairs of the Zhang family.
There are even rumors from witnesses that this lady is very valued by the master of the Zhang family, and in the near future, he will specially ask for a decree from the court to confer on her a wife and the like. As a result, the Zhang family's understanding of this lady has gradually changed from "lady" to "big lady" and "housewife".
Therefore, even if there are still a few people who serve closely, they will know that their young master and this eldest lady have never lived in the same room, and they will never have the courage to say more.
Ruan Qingyu pushed the door in, and the few servants who surrounded Zhang Shaoqing and quickly retreated, she waved her hand, and Xi'er, who followed closely behind, also retreated, leaving her alone to lean on the door and look at the sleeping Zhang Shaoqing from afar.
Zhang Shaoqing, that is her husband, is all the love she has hidden under the red Xipa. Now it seems that it is still so close to her and so far away from her. (To be continued......)
PS: He's her husband, and he's all the love she's been hiding under the red hippa.
