Chapter 138: This is my mother
And with the urine of the old lady, I must have been itching to wait for these two days.
She came to the door with something, and the old lady's old face was about to bloom with a smile, and she praised her for her filial piety.
For the old lady's praise, she responded to them one by one.
After coming out of the old lady's Ronghua Courtyard, she went to the courtyard where Aunt Li lived with auspicious wishes.
Ruyi's bruised face that was beaten by her brother, Zhao Lihua took the ointment to invigorate blood and dissolve stasis and asked Jixiang to wipe it for her, and after two or three days, the bruises on her face have dissipated.
When the three of them arrived at the courtyard where Aunt Li lived, the maid beside Aunt Li saw Zhao Lihua and asked in surprise: "Fourth Miss?" "It seems that I didn't expect her to come.
Zhao Lihua's delicate face smiled softly: "Is Aunt Li here?" β
In fact, she doesn't need to ask her to know that Aunt Li is definitely there.
The aunt in the house can't leave the house at will without the permission of the old lady and Lin Yunxia.
Taking a step back, these aunts don't have anything to do when they leave the house, so they usually stay in their own yards.
The maid blessed Zhao Lihua with a blessing, and invited Zhao Lihua to the front hall to sit down for tea: "Yes, please wait for a while, and the slave will inform Aunt Li." β
After Zhao Lihua nodded, the maid retreated.
"Miss, Aunt Li's yard is really simple and quiet." Jixiang sighed.
Zhao Lihua raised her eyes and looked at it casually, so she didn't look at it again.
It's rude to go to other people's places and look around.
But just a few glances, she could also see that the front yard was indeed simple, but the things used were worth a lot.
For example, the Ruyi full moon table in front of her, if she is not mistaken, is made of agarwood,
Agarwood is a precious wood in short supply in the 21st century.
Not to mention in this backward antiquity.
Here, if you are not a wealthy person, you will never be able to afford such things.
Aunt Li, as an aunt, uses this agarwood forged full moon table, which is very thought-provoking.
After a while, the maidservant went back and forth: "Fourth Miss, my aunt is not feeling well, and she said... Say I'll see you next time. β
Zhao Lihua was speechless.
Aunt Li's reason for not wanting to see her is too perfunctory, right?
She motioned for Jixiang to present the gift.
"Thank you Aunt Li for the tonic you sent last time, this is my return gift."
"Fourth Miss, why don't you wait until the next time you meet my aunt?" The maidservant replied that when she came, her aunt said that she would not accept anything.
"Jixiang, put it on the table, if Aunt Li is not feeling well, we will come back next time."
After speaking, Zhao Lihua ignored the maid's obstruction and left with auspicious wishes.
After leaving Aunt Li's yard, Zhao Lihua went straight to the outside of the house.
"Miss, shall we go to the infirmary or the first department store today?" Seeing Zhao Lihua leaving the house, Jixiang asked with a little excitement on his face.
"Let's go Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·"
"Sister Pear Blossom, what a coincidence, did you know that I was coming, waiting for me here?"
Zhao Lihua was talking when the Seventh Prince Long Tianyi suddenly arrived.
Hell knows you're coming! Zhao Lihua rolled her eyes, she had never seen someone who spoke so shamelessly.
Auspicious Ruyi blessed and saluted: "The slave has seen the Seven Princes. β
Long Tianyi waved his hand casually: "No need to be polite." β
After speaking, he came to Zhao Lihua: "Sister Lihua, where are we going to play?" β
Zhao Lihua glanced at him angrily: "Who wants to play with you?" Go away and stay where it's warm. β
"Ruthless." Long Tianyi covered his heart and made a painful appearance: "Sister Lihua, I will be sad if you are like this." β
Zhao Lihua asked casually: "Why didn't you die sadly?" β
"Missβ" Ji Xiang Ruyi was startled when she heard her words, and exclaimed in surprise.
Zhao Lihua stuck out her tongue, and she also realized that she had no mouth to cover at this time.
Long Tianyi is the prince, a royal person, and when she said to the prince that she was dead, she was simply looking for death by herself.
She glared at Long Tianyi angrily, got into the carriage with auspicious Ruyi, asked Ruyi's brother's residence, and asked the coachman to rush all the way to the outskirts of the city.
Ruyi asked inexplicably: "Miss, is there anything wrong with going to the slave brother's house?" β
That day, when Zhao Lihua told Jixiang that she wanted to seek justice for Ruyi, Ruyi was recuperating in the room and didn't hear Zhao Lihua's words.
So now Zhao Lihua suddenly said that she was going to her brother's house, and she was a little confused.
Jixiang stretched out his hand and nodded Ruyi's forehead: "Silly Ruyi, of course Miss is here to avenge you." β
"Huh?" Ruyi was stunned for a moment, and then said with an anxious face: "Miss, no, no, the slave is fine, my brother didn't trouble me again after he knew that I had no money." Her reaction was exactly the same as that day's auspiciousness, and at first glance, she was just as worried about the future.
Jixiang told Ruyi about Zhao Lihua's promise to allow them to marry that day and let them rely on their old age.
Zhao Lihua also said that she didn't go to Ruyi's house this time to trouble her family or anything.
She just went to see what kind of person Ruyi's family was and whether she could be saved.
Of course, she also had to stop by to see if there were any orphans in that place.
Ruyi listened with tears in her eyes, and kept saying thank you to Zhao Lihua.
Long Tianyi, the seventh prince who was in the carriage behind Zhao Lihua, heard their conversation, raised the corners of his mouth and smiled softly.
The carriage traveled for more than an hour, and finally arrived at the village where Ruyi and the others lived.
Ruyi's family went to the end of the village, and the road here is also narrow, and the carriage can't pass.
They had to get out of the carriage and walk.
As soon as he got out of the carriage, he saw Long Tianyi walking from behind, and greeted them: "Sister Lihua." β
Zhao Lihua ignored him.
Let Ruyi lead the way in front and walk to her house.
Now that winter is on, the village seems a little cold, and there are bare tree trunks everywhere, and there is not a trace of green in sight.
Zhao Lihua has three masters and servants, plus three Long Tianyi's masters and servants.
The group was gorgeously dressed, and the spirit and appearance were not from this village at first glance, which attracted the attention of many people.
Many people stopped walking and looked at them with their hands in their sleeves.
Long Tianyi waved at the people who were looking at him indifferently: "Hello everyone, hello everyone, have you eaten?" β
Zhao Lihua was speechless, he thought he was walking the catwalk or leading the inspection of the people's situation?
"EhΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·" Long Tianyi saw her expression of rolling her eyes, and said with a sigh: "Sister Lihua, don't have this expression, you see that it is rare for people in the village to see a girl as delicate as you, you smile more." β
Hearing Long Tianyi's teasing tone, the villagers guessed that it might be the young lady of two big families looking for fun everywhere.
The further they went into the village, the more people visited them.
Someone recognized Ruyi as a dark-skinned, stocky young man.
He shouted at Ruyi and asked, "Xiaomei, is that you?" β
Ruyi stopped and turned his head to look, and said in surprise: "Brother Shi." β
As soon as the stone called Shi heard Ruyi's response, he immediately ran to Ruyi's side.
This... Is there a situation? Zhao Lihua stopped and turned her head to look at them.
Ruyi's face was slightly red, and he said unnaturally: "Little... Miss, this is Brother Shi who grew up with the slave maid in the village, and the slave maid is called Xiaomei when she is at home. β
Or a childhood sweetheart?
Zhao Lihua nodded: "Let's go together, you guys will slowly catch up on the road." β
They can't stand here and say.
When they walked away, they heard someone whispering.
"Xiaomei? The girl of the old Chen family who was sold? β
"It should be, I really didn't see it, I used to be black and thin, but now it's white and a lot rounder."
"Looking at the master she followed, you know that life is good, and the old Chen family has such a girl, so it's really earned."
Zhao Lihua felt very strange.
Hasn't Ruyi been back a few times before?
Why did the people in the village say that Jixiang never came back after being sold?
She looked at Ruyi and asked the question.
Ruyi blushed for a while.
It's not a glorious thing to be sold by your family.
The first few times she took the money home, she had to dress up in disguise and sneak in, and it was the first time she came back in such a bright way as a few days.
It turned out that this was the case, and the people in the village did not know the situation.
After Ruyi was sold and came back with money, those ill-intentioned people in the village may think that Ruyi did something shady to get rich.
There is always no shortage of people in the world who maliciously slander others.
After a few people left, they saw Ruyi's house for about a quarter of an hour.
Ruyi and Shi were talking and leading the way in front, and as soon as they arrived at the door of the house, the old woman inside pointed at her and shouted when she saw her.
"Xiaomei, you little hoof finally knows that you're back, where is the money? Did you bring it back? β
I haven't waited for Ruyi to speak.
The old woman saw the stone standing beside Ruyi.
began to cross his waist and scold: "Xiaomei, how many times has my mother told you?" Told you not to be with this nemesis of the dead father and dead mother, why are you messing with him again? You want to make our family unlucky, don't you? β
The stone listened to Ruyiniang's words, and his dark face was full of anger.
Zhao Lihua, who followed Ruyi, was speechless.
Is this a mother-in-law?
Scolding people so hard?
Ruyi looked at Zhao Lihua apologetically and said, "Miss, why don't we go back to Beijing today, and the slave will come back by herself another day." Ruyi Niang saw that Ruyi didn't answer her, but turned around to talk to the person behind her, and yelled unhappily: "Little hoof, what about the old lady talking to you?" Didn't you hear? β
Speaking of this, she suddenly looked at Zhao Lihua and the others.
Just when Zhao Lihua thought she was going to do something.
She slammed the door shut: "Little hoof, you can come back by yourself, and bring such a group of people here, there is not so much food to entertain you at home, you stuff the money through the crack in the door, and then take the people away." β
Zhao Lihua: "Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·" Do they look like they're here to eat?
Long Tianyi: "Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·" touched his handsome face, looked at his luxurious clothes, shook his head, and sighed secretly, this old woman is really blind.
Ruyi's face was even more embarrassed.
Zhao Lihua said, "It's okay, just say we don't eat." β
