It turned out that after Zhao Rui arrived in Beijing that day, she did not go home directly. Because she was also afraid, afraid that her stubborn father would not know how to punish her daughter who eloped with someone. Their Zhao family can be regarded as a scholarly family for generations, and her father is a very good minister. Several children of the Zhao family, the eldest, the second, and the third, although they are not all in and out like his father, they are all people who know books and keep etiquette.

The sisters-in-law married by Zhao Rui's three brothers are also famous families. Like Zhao Rui, eloping with a poor boy with no name is unthinkable in the eyes of the Zhao family. It was precisely because Zhao Rui knew how much her behavior hurt and hit the Zhao family, so she was even more worried that Yu Ren would have a conflict with her father when she returned to Beijing this time.

Of course, she didn't worry about how Yu Ren would be beaten by her father, and she didn't have to worry about Yu Ren hurting her father. She believes that no matter how horizontal Yu Ren is, he will not do anything with his father-in-law. However, if the relationship between the two is further ossified because of this, it is also something that Zhao Rui is extremely unwilling to see. So, she left what she was doing and hurried over.

At this time, he entered Beijing and was about to arrive home, but Zhao Rui was inexplicably weak.

"Miss, aren't we going home to live?" Seeing Zhao Rui stop in front of the Penglai Inn, Xiaoyun asked.

"Don't go back yet. My dad must be mad when I leave this time. If I go back like this, he'll have to break my leg. Zhao Rui said, let people charter a small courtyard in the inn, and then asked people to go to Zhang Luo to clear the goods of the two ships as soon as possible.

After arranging the next person, seeing that the time was still early, Zhao Rui said to Yun'er, "Yun'er, you accompany me to the street!" It's been more than a year since I left Beijing, and I don't know if this has changed! ”

Yun'er didn't speak, but felt that Miss was a little different from the past today. In the past, the young lady was very simple in doing things, and she never dragged on like now. But today, the young lady is not only procrastinating, but even a little sentimental.

This Yuhuang Street is only one alley away from Zhao's house. Yuhuang Street is lined with shops on both sides, and it is a more lively place in the south of the city. Zhao Rui was wandering around Jade Emperor Street with Yun'er's support at this time.

Zhao Rui seemed to be wandering aimlessly, but Yun'er gradually discovered a pattern, the shops that Miss went to today were the stores she used to frequent. Although Zhao Rui hasn't been here for more than a year, because she used to be a customer, most of the guys in these shops still remember her. When they saw her come in, they all greeted her warmly. Some of the more familiar ones have to talk about a few sentences.

It's just that all of them naturally avoided talking about Zhao Rui's private affairs, and only talked about public topics that had nothing to do with him, such as "Whose sow is cheating again!" Whose baby was naughty again and bit the neighbor's dog! "Kind of words. It was as if they didn't know about Zhao Rui's elopement with Yu Ren.

In fact, the elopement between Zhao Rui and Yu Ren was still widely spread in Beijing. Especially in the private market, there are at least dozens of versions circulating. This kind of rich girl falling in love with a poor boy and finally giving up everything to elope with him is a kind of story that people like to hear the most, both in ancient times and today.

Even the storyteller adapted him into a story, only changing his name and origin. After all, the father of the family is the head of the household, and no one has the courage to dare to openly arrange his Zhao family.

But now, when everyone sees Zhao Rui, they all pretend to be as if they have never heard of her elopement. Zhao Rui was also very cooperative, never mentioning her own affairs, and did not ask about the recent situation at home. Although she has always been curious to know.

After walking a few shops, Zhao Rui walked into a rouge shop again. She used to come to this shop often. She still remembers her second sister-in-law's favorite rouge in this shop.

As soon as Zhao Rui entered the shop, she saw a familiar figure standing there talking to a female guy.

"This batch is the best shipment we have just brought in from the south, and I heard that it is from the West. Especially this water, it is fragrant. Just sprinkle a drop and your whole person will be fragrant all day long. After speaking, the female guy leaned over and whispered in the woman's ear, "If you sprinkle this perfume, your second son Zhao will only be afraid to toss you all night before he is satisfied." ”

When the lady said this, she chuckled softly, and laughed a little. But before her laughter was over, the smile froze on her face. But she immediately changed to a more charming smile. "Miss Zhao is here! What a coincidence! ”

The woman, who had turned her back to the door, heard the words and hurriedly turned around. When she saw Zhao Rui, her face immediately showed an expression of surprise, but this expression was immediately replaced by joy.

"Ruirui. You're back! That's great. The woman said, dropped the perfume, rushed over, and grabbed Zhao Rui's hand.

"Second young grandmother, be careful, Miss is pregnant now." Seeing the woman's reckless appearance, Yun'er couldn't help but remind.

"Really?" The woman was even happier. "Ruirui, are you pregnant? That's great. Let's go back. ”

This woman is Zhao Rui's second sister-in-law Gao Wenqin, she is the daughter of Gao Panlong, one of the seven sons of Donglin, and she has been good with the Zhao family for generations. Therefore, she and Zhao Rui have known each other since childhood. Among the three sisters-in-law, she has the best relationship with Zhao Rui. Since Zhao Rui left, Gao Wenqin has lost a confidant in the Zhao family. Sometimes I have something to say, but I can't find anyone to say.

At this time, seeing Zhao Rui, who had been away from home for more than a year, suddenly come back, Gao Wenqin was so happy that she almost didn't pick up Zhao Rui.

Hearing Gao Wenqin mention going home, Zhao Rui's expression darkened, and she lowered her voice and said, "Sister-in-law, I can't go home now." ”

"Why?" Gao Wenqin's question was rushed, but she immediately regretted it, because she actually understood the reason for this. She was happy for a while, but she forgot that Zhao Rui eloped with someone and left home.

As the daughter-in-law of the Zhao family for many years, Gao Wenqin certainly knows the temper of her father-in-law, if he knows that Zhao Rui is back, he will never let her enter the house, let alone see her. Thinking of this, Gao Wenqin's face couldn't help but show a little sadness.

"Then, what are your plans to return to Beijing this time? What about Yu Ren's kid? ”

"He has some things to do and has gone elsewhere temporarily, and it will take two days to get to Beijing." As he spoke, Zhao Rui pulled Gao Wenqin aside.

"Sister-in-law, can you do me a favor?"

Gao Wenqin looked around and said to Zhao Rui. "This is not the place to talk, let's go to your place and talk!"

After Gao Wenqin returned from Zhao Rui's residence, he immediately returned to Zhao's mansion and told Mrs. Zhao the news of Zhao Rui's return to Beijing as soon as possible.

When Mrs. Zhao heard that her daughter was back, she was naturally happy. I wanted to go to see her immediately, but when I thought that the master would not allow it, I hesitated. But when she then heard that her daughter was pregnant with Yu Ren's child, and this Yu Ren was so discouraged that she married the daughter of King Lu and left their mother and son aside; Now that Zhao Rui is desperate and has to return to Beijing to join them, Mrs. Zhao can no longer care about the master's reproach.

"Where is Rui Rui now?" Mrs. Zhao asked.

Gao Wenqin pretended to be sad and said, "In a small inn." They went all the way to Beijing, and the money on their bodies was almost spent. Now only Yun'er is by her side. ”

When Mrs. Zhao heard this, she couldn't help shedding a few tears sadly. Zhao Rui is her only daughter and the youngest. In the past, when she was at home, Mrs. Zhao loved this daughter the most, but now that she heard that her life was so miserable, how could Mrs. Zhao not cry.

"Let's go, take me there."

Mrs. Zhao, led by Gao Wenqin, came to the small inn where Yu Ren and the others came now, and met her daughter who had been absent for more than a year. Mother and daughter saw each other, hugged each other and cried.

Mrs. Zhao stayed and asked Zhao Rui a lot of words, and then took dozens of taels of private silver to her daughter, asking her to live in a better place.

Mrs. Zhao stayed with her daughter until dark, and then reluctantly left.

Although she was pitiful for her daughter, Mrs. Zhao never said that she would let her go home to live. Because she also knows that the old man of their family is a stubborn cow, and his daughter's elopement with someone last time has greatly hurt his face, if she takes her back privately this time, she is afraid that he will get angry and repair himself.

Therefore, although Mrs. Zhao took great pity on her daughter, she did not dare to take her daughter back to live.

On the one hand, Mrs. Zhao wanted to tell her lord Zhao Nanxing about her daughter's recent situation, but on the other hand, she didn't dare to let him know that she had met her daughter in private. Just when Mrs. Zhao was in a dilemma, her second daughter-in-law Gao Wenqin was very "understanding" and came up with a good idea for her.

"Madam, in fact, you don't have to tell the master about this in person, but you can let the master know!"

"Oh! Let's talk about it. "Mrs. Zhao has always been close to these two daughters-in-law. At this time, hearing her say this, I couldn't help but feel happy in my heart.
