In the blink of an eye, it has been a long time since Tangyazi went to Licheng to attend the celebration banquet.
During this period, Uncle Chang Geng and his transportation team returned to Changping Village to send back the things from the south.
He also brought the things from home over here.
After completing this trip, Tangyazi still did not come back from Licheng.
Not only did he not come back, there was no news from him at all.
"Qing'er Qing'er, why are you so stunned? Uncle Bai didn't reply when he asked you, what are you thinking about?"
Bai Laowu's voice brought back Yang Ruoqing's distracted mind.
She glanced at Bai Laowu, who was struggling with a bowl of fermented red bean paste on the table in front of her.
With a pursed smile, she said truthfully: "I was thinking about Tang Yazi and got distracted. I'm sorry!"
Bai Laowu wiped the corners of his mouth and leaned forward: "Why, during this period of absence, Mr. Luo didn't even say a single word to you?"
Yang Ruoqing shook her head.
"What's going on? I usually sneak in and have fun with you whenever I can. This is not like that boy's style!"
Bai Laowu also touched his chin and began to think about it.
Yang Ruoqing smiled faintly: "It's nothing. Maybe he was assigned some errands temporarily and it's not convenient to contact him. He will come back naturally after he finishes his errands."
Bai Laowu nodded and said with admiration: "Well, you're the better girl. You're open-minded, considerate, and you're also good at making delicious dishes."
Yang Ruoqing smiled and said nothing.
Every time Uncle Bai comes back, he always comes for the delicious food.
And she never disappoints him every time.
No, when I came in today, I yelled that it was hot and I had no appetite for food.
She took out a big bowl of fermented red bean paste with fermented rice and glutinous rice from the well, and he ate it in one go, shouting happily.
"Uncle Bai didn't leave at noon. He just stayed here. He bought fish and dried them a few days ago."
"How about I make a steamed fish dumpling with garlic and fragrant beans for Uncle Bai at noon?" she asked.
Hearing this, Bai Laowu was so happy that his eyes narrowed to a slit.
He stroked his palm and said, "You are the girl who is sensible and knows how to care for others."
"When you and Mr. Luo get married later, Uncle Bai will be your mother-in-law and give you the biggest red envelope!"
"Hehe, I'll thank Uncle Bai first."
In the dining hall, the atmosphere is just right.
Just Xiaoyu came in a hurry from outside.
"Qing'er Qing'er, there's someone from Licheng. They say it's Tang Yazi who sent the message."
Before anyone even entered the house, the sound came in.
Licheng? Send a message?
Yang Ruoqing and Bai Laowu looked at each other.
She came outside excitedly.
"Where are the people?"
she asked Xiaoyu.
"It's at the front door. Come quickly."
Yang Ruoqin hurried to the front door of the shop, followed by Xiao Yu and Bai Lao Wu.
Soon, she left the shop and saw a guard standing at the door leading a horse.
"Are you Yang Ruoqing?"
Before she could say a word to invite him into the room to drink tea, the guard said coldly with a serious face.
Yang Ruoqing was startled for a moment, then nodded: "Yes, it's me. What is the name of this eldest brother?"
The guard glanced around Yang Ruoqing, and said with no warmth in his voice, "I am the guard of the South Prince's Mansion in Licheng. I have been ordered to come here and give you a message. Please listen carefully!"
"Luo Fengtang, General Luo asked me to tell you that he has decided to cancel his engagement with you."
"Here are six taels of silver. General Luo asked me to hand it over to you as compensation for you, so that you don't have to worry about it anymore..."
Cancel the engagement?
Yang Ruoqing was stunned for a moment, feeling as if she had been struck by lightning.
She stared at the six taels of silver that the guard threw at her feet without blinking.
For a moment, I was a little unable to react.
"Fart, fart the eighteenth generation of your ancestors!"
Bai Laowu happened to come out of the shop and heard this.
He cursed, rushed over and leaned down to pick up the six taels of silver on the ground, and threw them all into the guard's face.
The guard was not careful and received a bloody gash on his forehead.
He covered his bleeding forehead and took a step back, furious: "How could a crazy old man dare to hit this guard?"
As he spoke, he was about to pull out the sword from his waist.
Bai Laowu took out a fire stick from the back of his waist and knocked it over.
He knocked the guard so hard that he fell to the ground, stars popping out in front of his eyes.
"A servant running errands is still trying to show off to you, Grandpa Bai? I'll beat you to death for dirtying Grandpa Bai's fire stick!"
Bai Laowu spat.
The guard realized how powerful Bai Laowu was and climbed up from the ground.
"I'm here to deliver a message. I don't want to get involved with you, a crazy old man."
He said quickly, pulled the reins and got on the horse.
Before leaving, he said loudly to Yang Ruoqing who was still stunned: "General Luo will be engaged to our Princess Bingqing in the near future. If you are sensible, you can accept this money so that you can live your life. Don't bother me again! Farewell!" "
The horse ran out in a flash, and Bai Laowu was so angry that his lungs were about to explode.
He waved the fire stick in his hand as if to chase after him, but Xiao Yu called him to stop him.
"Uncle Bai, come back, come back quickly!"
Xiaoyu stamped her feet anxiously.
When something like this happened, she felt like a bolt from the blue, let alone Qing'er?
Can she withstand this blow?
Xiaoyu stretched out her hand to support Yang Ruoqing, her face full of worry and anxiety.
"Qing'er, are you, are you okay?"
Xiao Yu didn’t even know what to say.
fine?
Is it okay?
Bai Laowu also turned back to the two of them. Seeing Yang Ruoqing's appearance, Bai Laowu was so anxious that he scratched his liver and lungs.
"Qing'er, don't believe it. The guy who sent the message has a slutty look on his face. Someone must be deliberately trying to instigate a relationship between you and Mr. Luo. Don't you fall for it!" Bai Laowu said.
Hearing the words of Xiaoyu and Bai Laowu next to him, he felt their concern and worry.
Yang Ruoqing took a deep breath and finally came to her senses.
She first raised her hand and patted the back of Xiaoyu's hand, telling her not to worry.
Then, her eyes fell on Bai Lao Wu, and a look of determination flashed in her eyes.
"Tang Yazi is not such a person, let alone would do such a thing. I believe him."
Her words were light but powerful.
In an instant, Bai Lao Wu and Xiao Yu's anxiety calmed down a bit.
Yang Ruoqing continued: "As for whether this guard is from the Lichengnan Prince's Palace or whether he was sent by someone else with ulterior motives, I'm not sure yet."
"But I believe that there is no smoke without fire. Something must have happened to Tang Yazi over there," she said.
It's okay to not come back for such a long time and not even say a word, but here comes a messenger like this.
break off an engagement?
Engagement with Princess Bingqing?
Haha... funny!
After hearing Yang Ruoqing's words, Bai Laowu also suppressed his anger and thought calmly.
Then, he slapped his thigh and said, "Based on my understanding of Mr. Luo, he is definitely not such a ruthless and unjust person. There must be something wrong with him."
"Okay Qing'er, Uncle Bai will make a trip to Licheng to find Mr. Luo and ask him face to face what's going on!"
Yang Ruoqing said: "I'll go with you!"
