Chapter 091: Determination
"What are you doing here?!"
A reprimand sounded in the attic, Liu Wenyao and Liu Wenxin at the table stood up in fright, and Jiang Ruyan raised his eyes, looked at Liu Chengyu who was furious in front of him gently, and explained unhurriedly.
"The children said that they were really worried about not seeing their mother for many days, so they went into the attic to see me, they have filial piety, the son should be happy, and he will honor you in the future."
Although the woman in front of her was specially dressed, it still shocked Liu Chengyu.
The original slender but plump figure is now shaped like dead wood, and when the wind blows gently, the dress puffs up and sways, making her even more rugged and fragile.
Even if Jiang Ruyan pounced on the fat powder and had a bright smile, he still couldn't hide the haggard look on his face.
Honor?
He specially ordered the guards outside the attic, except for the maids who delivered the food, and the idlers were not allowed to enter, but Liu Wenxin excused her things to be lost nearby, broke away from the guards below, and took the opportunity to enter the attic with Liu Wenyao.
dare to ignore his orders, and talk about filial piety in the future!
The old princess was still in the dining room, Liu Chengyu didn't want to make a fuss, his eyes suddenly locked on the pastries on the table, "What did you give them?!" β
"When the children heard that I had a bad appetite, they brought pastries, and how could I give them anything else in this attic besides a light meal?"
Seeing that Liu Chengyu seemed to be relieved, Jiang Ruyan smiled even deeper, and then stepped forward and gently took his hand and put it on his emaciated cheek.
"Do you remember? Once upon a time, outside the Hou Mansion, our family of four lived in the farmhouse with peach trees, the stream in front of the door, the favorite rice field of Yao'er, and the sea of flowers that Xin'er frequented. β
"Ruyan has always missed that time, even if it is only a short year, it is the most beautiful memory of Ruyan's life."
"Lord Shizi, if you know that you are wrong, you must listen to your words from now on, and when you have a good body, will you give birth to a pair of children for your son?"
She is affectionate, well-behaved and docile, as if there has never been a disagreement between the two.
Liu Chengyu's eyes flashed slightly, and he didn't answer for a while.
Jiang Ruyan is not in a hurry, "Ruyan's biggest wish in this life is to see that the future of the prince is bright, and now is the time when she needs her sister's help, so Ruyan will not fight with her, will not rob her, Ruyan can wait." β
If it were the past, Liu Chengyu would definitely be soft-hearted and moved by this affection.
But at this time, the temperature of her palm made him lose half of his touch.
"It's best if you can figure it out. These two children are making a lot of noise, so don't let them disturb your cultivation of your mind and body. β
Liu Chengyu calmly withdrew his hand, but Liu Wenyao stood up and hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Father, mother has really reflected on it this time, she promised not to punish me again, you can forgive her!" β
If his father didn't agree, he would go back and beg his grandmother, who loved him the most and would definitely let his mother out.
For some reason, he just felt that Jiang Ruyan's punishment this time was heavier than before, and he regretted it, regretting that he shouldn't have sued at that time.
"Hmm." Liu Chengyu responded lightly, what is forgiven is not so important.
When she is a little weaker, she can't get in the way of herself.
The naΓ―ve Liu Wenyao immediately smiled, and did not forget to look back at Jiang Ruyan as if he was asking for credit.
After they left, Yulan cautiously walked out of the corner, "Girl, it seems that the prince has relented, so forget the previous plan, right?" β
"What, are you scared? Don't forget, you and I are grasshoppers on the same rope now, and if I die, you won't survive. β
The smile on Jiang Ruyan's face was gone, replaced by an unprecedented coldness.
She looked at the direction in which Liu Chengyu had left, and her eyes seemed to be stained with poison.
Her diet was poisonous, he knew!
He knows everything!
She deliberately let the two children come to the attic, just to test Liu Chengyu's mind and give the two of them one last chance.
He didn't like others to be disobedient the most, but this time he didn't scold her in anger or reprimand the child, but chose to endure things, just to appease her and lower her defense!
Just now she also mentioned the days when she depended on each other in the past, as long as he showed a trace of unbearability and confessed to her, she would choose to forgive for the sake of the child.
And now she already knows that the two really can't go back.
Since he is unkind, don't blame yourself for being unjust!
β¦β¦
"What is Madame worried about? The slave maid saw that the old princess's body had improved a lot, and she had a whole bowl of rice for lunch! β
Chunxiao saw that after Xia Yunxian sent the old princess to the guest room to rest and came back, she was always uneasy.
She also tasted those Jiangnan dishes, and there was really no problem, but Xia Yunxian had a feeling that she seemed to have overlooked some important details.
"The old princess turned the yellow flowers in the courtyard into gray."
"The slave maid also found that the old princess rubbed her eyes several times, but the lady had already checked for her and found no clues."
Therefore, Chunxiao feels that it is really a person who cannot compete with the sky, especially women, who age very quickly.
Just as Xia Yunxian was thinking about it, Aunt Zhang stepped in with a bowl of peanut sweet soup.
"Madame, try it, this sweet soup tastes great."
Seeing that she took a few sips absentmindedly, Aunt Zhang smiled again, "By the way, someone was sent to the county lord's house just now, saying that the county lord suddenly felt unwell, and I want to ask Mrs. you to come over and have a look." β
"It's okay at noon, I'm afraid I'm going to make things difficult for Mrs. again, so let's let the house doctor go." Chunxiao opened her mouth worriedly, but Xia Yunxian gave her a reassuring look.
"The county lord is a distinguished guest, how can he be lazy. It's just right, you're going to clean up the herbs that you're drying outside, and I'll go back as soon as I go. β
Xia Yunxian tidied up her clothes slightly, and Aunt Zhang kindly came to Chunxiao's side, "It's so tiring to pack up the herbs, I'll help you!" β
After all, Madame has to work hard to go, Chunxiao's hands and feet are too neat, don't add chaos to her, and what if she goes to a bad world?
Aunt Zhang didn't notice that when Xia Yunxian left, she looked back at her deeply.
When they arrived at the courtyard of the county lord of Wanting, the maid Feiwu was already waiting in front of the house.
She looked behind Xia Yunxian meaningfully, and made sure that no one else was coming, so she respectfully pushed open the closed carved pear door.
"Unzen, you're here."
But when Xia Yunxian stepped into the house, he saw that only Liu Chengyu was waiting there, how could there be a figure of the county lord of Huanting.
He seemed to have just taken a bath, with a refreshing smell on his body, his handsome face was slightly red, and there was a faint expectation in his eyes when he looked at her.
"Why is the prince here?" Xia Yunxian frowned, and Liu Chengyu's voice was a little hoarse.
"Nature is waiting for you."
