Ling Rou didn't know what was happening in Linxian Residence, she was standing anxiously outside the Anping Marquis Mansion at the moment.

Wait for Li Duyun.

"Miss, it's already tea time, why hasn't Li Shizi come out yet? Is he unwilling to come to see us? ”

No wonder Xiuqiao is in a hurry, the Anping Marquis Mansion is close to the downtown area, if he just stands, it will be fine, but this person is coming and going, and the young lady is wearing a bright cloak, it is difficult not to attract attention.

Ling Rou was already upset, but hearing her say this was even more irritable, and her head couldn't help but lower.

But she believed that Li Duyun must have been delayed in an urgent matter, otherwise she would never have waited so long.

"Miss, someone has come out!"

Xiuqiao's surprised voice made Ling Rou's heart ignite hope, and she hurriedly looked up.

It was not Li Duyun who came out, but Mrs. Li.

She dressed up and was supported by an old woman, talking and laughing, maybe she was going to see someone.

This smile was directly suppressed the moment she saw Ling Rou, and was replaced by displeasure.

Those who should not come did not come, but those who should not come were very attentive!

Ling Rou's face was slightly red, and she stepped forward and gave a salute: "Mrs. Li." ”

Mrs. Li said "um" and smiled again.

Although it was a smile, there was no trace of joy.

"I don't know what happened to the sudden arrival of the second young lady?"

The words "sudden visit" made Ling Rou sneer, and she was not welcome at first.

But she is a marquise and Li Duyun's mother, even though she was born in the prime minister's mansion, she is only a concubine, and she has no capital to care about it at all.

Besides, if you want to marry in, sooner or later you have to look at her face.

Therefore, he lowered his posture and said humbly: "Mrs. Li, I came today to find Li Shizi in an urgent matter. ”

When she heard that she was looking for her son, Mrs. Li was even more displeased.

Her Anping Marquis Mansion is no longer the beginning, and her son is also the son of the world, how can she have a close relationship with such a lowly and scheming concubine?

There is no hope for Ling Yue's side, but there are so many noble girls in the capital, which one is not stronger than the one in front of her?

He stood up straight, with a proud face: "Twilight Yun is going to study in the mansion today, I'm afraid I won't have time to see the second lady." The second lady should go back first, so as not to delay the time. ”

Ling Rou's hand was tightly twisting the handkerchief, and her lips were about to bite and bleed.

She also has self-esteem and pride, and if it was in the past, she would definitely leave without looking back. But at the moment, things have not been done, and now I can't go back.

Forced out a smile, and his attitude was still respectful: "Mrs. Li, don't worry, I won't delay the son for a long time, just a few words." ”

Mrs. Li smiled: "Why don't Mrs. Ben help you convey it on your behalf?" ”

Seeing that her face was getting redder and redder, Mrs. Li was disdainful in her heart, didn't she come to show her intentions, so it was difficult to speak?

"There is nothing to say to anyone, since the second lady can't say it to Mrs. Ben, don't say it to Twilight. Second Miss, don't blame me for being troublesome, I'm also for the good of Second Miss. Twilight is the son of the world, and he will inherit the title in the future. Although his future wife is not very noble, at least she is the right person. The second miss is also going to marry in the future, so for the sake of the second miss's reputation, it is better to have less contact with Twilight. ”

At this point, Ling Rou was ashamed and indignant, and she had no face to stay here.

Just as she turned around to leave, Li Duyun ran out of it and grabbed her.

"Rourou, I'm sorry to keep you waiting so long, I was too busy just now, let's go in and talk."

His intimate actions made Mrs. Li furious, and she said sharply, "Dusk, are there any rules?" In public, you are pulling and pulling like this? ”

When Li Duyun saw his mother, he quickly let go of his hand, bowed his head and said, "It's the child's mistake, don't be angry." ”

Mrs. Li snorted, "If I don't get angry, you can stay away from her." Just broke off the relationship with my sister, turned around and entangled with my sister, what do you let others think of our Anping Marquis Mansion? ”

Ling Rou looked at Li Duyun's face with embarrassment, and choked up: "Mrs. Li, don't blame the prince, everything is Rourou's fault, please don't be angry, Rourou will never see the prince again." ”

After saying this, Ling Rou ran while crying. The petite and sad figure made Li Duyun's heart tighten.

He panicked in his heart, was she going to break up with him? No longer caring about her mother's anger, she turned around and chased after Ling Rou.

Mrs. Li was so angry that she stomped her feet and said to the grandmother beside her: "The little slut is used to acting, come as soon as she opens her mouth, and she must not be allowed to enter the door of my house!" ”

Li Duyun quickly caught up with Ling Rou, she was already crying so much that she was almost fainting, which filled his heart with guilt.

Considering that there were many people on the street, he took her into Linxian Residence, asked for a private room, and ordered some fragrant tea and pastries.

"Rourou, my mother must have said something ugly to you, don't worry about it for my sake, okay?" Li Duyun discussed in a good voice, how could such a good girl's mother bear to hurt her?

He understands his mother's temperament, and he already has a family opinion, and since he broke off with Ling Yue, he will inevitably sprinkle his anger on Ling Rou.

Ling Rou looked at his melancholy eyes, wiped her eyes, and smiled at him with red eyes.

The smile that broke free from the tears seemed even more distressing to Li Duyun, and she hurriedly took out a handkerchief to wipe her.

"Brother Twilight, your aunt is your mother, I will take whatever she says, how can I blame her? But you, must have suffered a lot of grievances because of me, and I ...... in my heart It's really sad. ”

Seeing that she was so understanding, Li Duyun thought she was a good girl, so she held her in her arms and comforted her softly.

"Rourou, don't worry, I have already made the matter with Ling Yue clear with my father and mother, and I will tell them that I want to marry you next. You're the only one I'm going to marry from beginning to end. ”

His words were very useful in Ling Rou's heart, as long as he was willing to marry her, she would no longer be a lowly concubine.

"I believe in you!"

Li Duyun imprinted on her forehead and hugged her tighter.

"By the way, I almost forgot to ask you what you were looking for me."

Ling Rou sat up, twisted the handkerchief, and stopped talking.

Seeing this, Li Duyun hesitated: "Isn't it good to tell me?" ”

Ling Rou hurriedly said: "No, it's just hard to speak." ”

Have a bone in one's throat?

Li Duyun suddenly smiled and pinched her face: "Does Rourou want to pour out her thoughts to me?" ”

Ling Rou looked shy, took the handkerchief and slapped him lightly, and then said slowly: "Brother Duyun, you have always known my heart for you, do you want to say it again?" Actually, I'm trying to borrow some silver from you this time. ”

Borrowing silver?

Li Duyun was puzzled, Rourou was a little fairy who didn't eat fireworks in the world, how could she open her mouth to borrow silver?

Moreover, there will always be a shortage of young ladies in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

But he still asked, "How much?" ”

Ling Rou's face turned even redder, and she said hesitantly, "One ...... Ten thousand taels. ”

Li Duyun couldn't laugh, he still owed Ling Yue 10,000 taels, where could he get another 10,000 taels?

But he couldn't show his cowardice in front of the woman he loved, and said with a smile: "Rourou, it's not that I don't want to borrow, what's mine is yours." But I want to know, why do you have so much silver? You are a girl's family, you can't be deceived by bad people. ”

This sentence directly made Ling Rou cry, with hatred in her eyes.

"Not my sister yet? Today, I went to see her with Feng'er's kindness, who expected Feng'er to be playful and destroy the grass she planted, and what I didn't expect was that those were all herbs. Feng'er was afraid of her, so she said that I instigated it. My sister asked me to pay for it, otherwise I would sue in front of my father. I thought it wasn't worth much, but who knew that I found several people to look at it, and they all said that it was a precious herb, worth at least 10,000 taels. I can't get that much silver, so I'm going to ask you for help. Brother Twilight, help me! ”
