After Luo Fengtang left, Ning Su sat under the lamp, pondering what Luo Fengtang said.
He took out the pair of cloth shoes placed behind him and took another look.
His eyes showed a softness that even he didn't notice.
If he could make the decision himself about this marriage, he would hope that the person who would be his equal would be a girl as gentle and well-behaved as Xiao Yu, with a sweet smile.
After looking at the shoes again, Ning Su put them away again, then blew out the candle and lay down on the bed.
At night, Xiaoyu came over again holding a pillow to chat with Yang Ruoqing.
When they had dinner at Tianxiang Tower, Ning Su and Xiao Yu sat together.
Uncle Bai and the others were teasing Xiao Yu to drink. After Ning Su held a drink for her, the girl was extremely excited all night long.
No, I was enjoying the cool air in the yard earlier, and I hadn’t had enough to say.
Here we come again.
"Hey, sister, why did you come here again without sleeping?" Yang Ruoqing asked in a deliberately depressed tone.
Xiaoyu chuckled, lifted the curtain and got into bed.
"I can't sleep, so I came here to chat with you," she said.
Yang Ruoqing lay there, wanting to cry.
"Hey, put some in there, are you not a good best friend?" Xiaoyu patted Yang Ruoqing's calf.
"Okay, I'm scared of you!"
Yang Ruoqing muttered and moved a little further into the bed.
After Xiaoyu lay down side by side with her, she started repeating the previous words again.
"Qing'er, tell me, how many people are there in Brother Ning's family? How many brothers and sisters are there?"
"Do you think he grew up surrounded by maids and servants?"
"Isn't it easy to beat up a spoiled young master and then run away to suffer hardships as a soldier?"
"Hehe, did you see that tonight, he said that girls shouldn't drink alcohol, and he even helped me stop drinking!"
"When we parted later, he asked me if I was going back to my residence with my son. I said I was with Sister-in-law Xiuzhu and Brother Big Ear, but he didn't say anything else."
Xiao Yu said and turned over, "If I had said that I didn't have a companion, would he have given me away? I feel like that's what he meant!"
"Hey, if I had known earlier, I should have let Sister-in-law Xiuzhu and the others leave first..."
Inside the tent, Xiaoyu was always talking to himself, asking and answering questions.
Yang Ruoqing had already said what she needed to say in the yard before, but now she was sleepy and didn't want to say it like leftovers.
However, Xiao Yu is obviously still in high spirits.
Seeing that Yang Ruoqing didn't respond, she felt a little unhappy and pushed her gently.
"Qing'er, all bystanders know, what do you think about this? Tell me!" she said.
Yang Ruoqing opened her eyes and looked at Xiaoyu.
In the dim tent, Xiaoyu's eyes were shining brightly.
One look at it makes you very excited, as if you are in a state of obsession.
"Xiaoyu, it's not that I don't want to tell you my opinion."
"Whatever Brother Ning is thinking, even if I say it, it doesn't matter!"
"There's something I didn't want to tell you originally, but seeing you pestering me like this and not sleeping, I might as well tell you." Yang Ruoqing said.
"What's going on?" Xiao Yu was confused.
Yang Ruoqing turned over and sat up, and told Xiaoyu that she had entrusted Luo Fengtang to touch Ning Sudi.
"What exactly is Brother Ning thinking? There should be results in the next two days." Yang Ruoqing continued.
"Xiao Yu, let's just let nature take its course for these things, okay?"
When Xiao Yu heard this, she felt that she seemed to be too excited.
"Qing'er, I made you laugh, I..."
"Are you just seeing a joke? Don't think blindly." Yang Ruoqing corrected Xiao Yu.
Emotions, when are they the most disturbing?
Even before the window paper was pierced, the two of them could feel the indescribable ambiguity and tacit understanding.
But when neither of them can determine what the other person is thinking.
At that time, the feeling is the most subtle.
Xiaoyu is going through this stage now, haunted by dreams, thinking and speculating over and over again, this is human nature.
After hearing Yang Ruoqing's comfort, Xiaoyu finally calmed down.
"I'm not very excited now, but I'm very nervous..." Xiaoyu said softly.
Yang Ruoqing chuckled: "There's nothing to be worried about."
"Just think about it this way. If he is yours, he is destined to be yours. He will still be yours after all the journeys."
"He's not yours. No matter how hard you force it, you can't get it. It's best to let nature take its own course. Fate has its own arrangements."
These words were used by her to comfort Xiao Yu.
When it comes to herself, she doesn't think so.
If the things you like are worth it, you have to work hard to get them and overcome all difficulties.
Make roads when encountering mountains and build bridges when encountering water.
However, Xiao Yu and Ning Su's situations are different, so these thoughts are reserved for Xiao Yu for the time being.
Sure enough, after hearing Yang Ruoqing's theory of fate, Xiao Yu's anxiety became lighter.
"Well, Qing'er, you're right. I thought about it too much, but it was all in vain."
"Yue Lao's red rope has been tied up a long time ago. I won't think about it anymore. Let's go to bed. We have to go to the restaurant to take care of things tomorrow."
"This is right!"
Yang Ruoqing praised.
He handed the other cattail leaf fan to Xiao Yu and said, "Let's sleep together."
That night, Xiao Yu was not the only one who suffered from insomnia because of the budding love.
A hundred miles away in Licheng, in the Nanwang Mansion, Princess Bingqing also suffered from insomnia.
"Qing'er, I drank the soothing soup. Why don't you rest?"
Princess Nan walked into the gorgeous boudoir and asked Princess Bingqing who was sitting on the bed wearing a white ice silk pajamas.
Bingqing sat on the bed hugging her knees, her hair spread like clouds on her back, and her pretty face looked haggard.
Faced with Princess Nan's inquiry, she just raised her eyes slightly, a trace of melancholy flashed in her eyes, and she stopped speaking.
Seeing this, Princess Nan waved away the maids and servants in the room, and sat sideways by the bed.
Looking at the increasingly thin baby girl in front of her, Princess Nan felt distressed.
"Since that day when you came back from Peach Blossom Nunnery, you haven't thought about food or tea, and you don't like to go out shopping or play, and you don't walk around with other ladies."
"Qing'er, is it worth it for a young general who was born as a commoner?"
Princess Nan asked earnestly.
A good daughter is like a mother, and a mother knows everything about her daughter's thoughts.
Hearing what Princess Nan said, Princess Bingqing raised her head.
"Mom, I don't like hearing what you say."
"What does it mean to be born as a commoner? Although my father is a prince, wasn't he too poor to have enough to eat at that time? Only by following the current emperor and conquering the world did he get the glory and wealth he has today?"
Princess Nan was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect her daughter's reaction to be so strong and to defend the young general so much.
"Don't bully the young man into being poor. Well, just think that your mother made a mistake."
Princess Nan quickly changed her words: "Qing'er, you can't ruin your body like this anymore. Look at you, your face has become smaller several times!"
Bingqing shook her head: "Mom, it's not that my daughter doesn't want to eat, it's just that she has no intention of eating."
"Whether I open my eyes or close them, the events of that night flash before my eyes."
"My mind is filled with the heroic posture of that silver-robed general!"
"My daughter wants to see him again and recruit him as her husband!"
