Chapter 15: The Third Lady Returns to the Door

On the second day of the wedding, after last night's lively scene, the prime minister's mansion rarely showed a bit of silence after the prosperity, and the people were also a little embarrassed because of yesterday's busyness.

The eldest lady then gave each room and courtyard a few hours off, and the prime minister's mansion was quiet at this time, and it was rare to see people walking around.

But Meng Ruyue was carrying her skirt and walking fast on the white stone path, and the corners of her skirt flew like a flower in a hurry. The maid Xiangqiao followed in small steps behind.

When she arrived at the Qingshui Temple, she slowed down, and when she entered the courtyard and saw the person swinging, she rushed up quickly, "Have you heard?" ”

Mu Lingkong, who asked with a split head and a face, was stunned, "What did you hear?" ”

"Last night, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asked Song Lanzhi to enjoy the moon in the garden, and the moon fell before the flowers, and today everyone is spreading that the prince seems to have the idea of taking Song Lanzhi as a concubine."

Dongxue pushed the swing behind him, and Mu Ling swung in the air again, the light-colored shawl swaying in the air, "What's wrong?" Qingli has already gossiped about me in the morning! ”

Meng Ruyue frowned and looked at her, "Then why did you react like this?" Haven't you always been pleased with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince before? ”

"What?" Mu Lingkong almost jumped off the swing, since she was happy with His Royal Highness the Prince, what the hell was she eloping with Yun Gongzi? Turning her head and thinking about it, it was no wonder that Meng Ruyue repeatedly mentioned His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to her.

Meng Ruyue nodded affirmatively, "Although I don't know how you eloped with someone, and I don't know why you are so indifferent to His Royal Highness the Prince's affairs now, it can be seen that amnesia can really change a lot of people!" Then she changed her voice, "But it's also a good thing, although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is unparalleled, but he is too affectionate, if you really enter the East Palace, it is estimated that you will die of sadness." ”

Mu Lingkong had never seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, let alone how he felt about him, he just listened to this.

In the blink of an eye, Meng Ruyue said with a smile, "Then tell you a gossip you don't know, I heard that last night, Rong Tao didn't even enter Meng Ruyun's yard, and he didn't even lift his hijab." Later, she sent a maid to invite, but Rong Tao was fortunate to have her maid in the study, which was really a slap in the face! ”

Mu Lingkong looked at the undisguised schadenfreude smile on her face, and didn't quite understand why she hated Meng Ruyun so much. Meng Ruyue pursed her lips, "I have been fighting with her for my father's favor since I was a child, and I have long been to the point of never dying, I still remember that when I was a child, I was sick and wanted to live, but she pulled my father and didn't let her go, so that my father could appreciate the embroidery she had just embroidered." Anyway, your father has loved you since you were a child, and you probably can't understand this feeling. This is vaguely a little sour.

Mu Lingkong swing higher, laughter floating in the air, "Oh, it's so sour, it's so sour, where did you knock over the vinegar jar~"

When Meng Ruyue returned to the door on the third day of her marriage, the eldest lady sent someone to summon a few sisters to accompany her.

Mu Lingkong and Meng Ruyue met at the door of the hall, Meng Ruyue's eyes were about to roll to the sky, "Knowing that I don't have a good relationship with her, my mother also sent someone to call me, why should I accompany me?" Accompany the bickering! ”

Mu Lingkong took her arm, "Ruyun returns to the door for the first time, and the whole family must be there!" ”

But when they entered the hall, they found that Meng Ruyun actually returned to the door alone, and Rong Tao didn't accompany him at all.

Meng Ruyun had a thick powder on his face, and he couldn't suppress the blue and gray color on his face and the thick black shadow under his eyes, it had only been three days, and Meng Ruyun seemed to be a lot haggard.

She bowed to the eldest lady and whispered, "My husband is busy with affairs and can't come back to visit my mother, and I hope my mother will forgive me!" ”

The eldest lady nodded lightly, everyone present knew that things were just nice, Rong Tao, an idle person, had nothing to be busy with, he was not dissatisfied with this marriage, he didn't want to accompany him back to the door, and he didn't even bother to be perfunctory.

Aunt Wan uncharacteristically didn't ask too much, but took Meng Ruyun's hand and asked her how she was doing in Rongfu.

Meng Ruyun glanced at the eldest lady and lowered her eyebrows, "My father-in-law and mother-in-law treat me very well, my aunt doesn't have to worry." ”

Aunt Wan took her hand and nodded.

Meng Huai'an rushed back to the house at lunchtime, and when he saw Meng Ruyun, who was only one person returning home, he didn't say anything, but just ordered everyone to sit down.

As a result, before there was a stick of incense, a porter hurriedly ran to the door of the hall to report something to the housekeeper Meng Ze, and Meng Ze hurriedly walked in again, "Master, the third aunt is here!" ”

Meng Ruyun's face instantly seemed to be illuminated by the sun, and it was a lot brighter, she raised her eyes and looked at the door expectantly, and Aunt Wan patted her shoulder and looked at the door with a happy face. After a while, Rong Tao walked in with a stomach hanging, "Say hello to my father-in-law and mother-in-law!" ”

Meng Huai'an nodded, "Tao'er can have food?" I'll ask the next person to add a pair of dishes and chopsticks! ”

Rong Tao nodded again and again, "I'm in a hurry, I haven't eaten yet, thank you, father-in-law!" After speaking, a pair of thief eyes glanced straight at Mu Lingkong next to Meng Ruyun.

Mu Lingkong's face was as usual, but Meng Ruyun's face was instantly dark as ink, and he no longer looked at him, but Aunt Wan warmly beckoned him to sit down.

Mu Lingkong didn't know the taste of a meal, except for Rong Tao's squinting eyes from time to time, Meng Ruyun's cold gaze, and the nausea that unconsciously surged in the face of Meng Huai'an.

But after eating, others still didn't let her go. As soon as Mu Lingkong and Meng Ruyue separated at the fork in the road and stepped on the path back to the courtyard, Rong Tao jumped out like the first time he was at the rockery.

"Cousin~" shouted as he stepped forward to get closer to Mu Lingkong.

Mu Lingkong stood in place with his arms crossed, looking at him coldly.

Rong Tao seemed to remember the painful experience of being knocked out by her before, and stood still, "Why did my cousin go in such a hurry?" ”

"Is there something wrong with my brother-in-law?" Mu Lingkong didn't answer the question, while stretching out his slender five fingers, gently clenching his fist and releasing it.

Rong Tao followed her gaze and looked at her fingers, shaking inexplicably, "It's okay, it's okay......" After speaking, he hurriedly made way for her.

Mu Lingkong lifted the hem of his clothes and walked in front of him with Dongxue and Qingli.

It wasn't until he watched them walk away that Rong Tao touched the back of his neck, and he didn't know what was wrong, obviously he still had that charming face, but when she looked at him with a cold face, he unconsciously wanted to kneel on the ground.

In the evening, I didn't hear the maid summons to go to the hall for dinner, so I knew that Rong Tao left with Meng Ruyun in the afternoon.

And the next day, Mrs. Meng also packed her luggage and prepared to continue to go back to Lingyin Temple to cultivate, but this time, Mu Lingkong and Meng Ruyue accompanied her, preparing to stay in the temple for a few days, and the two came back together, just to go out for a walk.
