"And Miss." Caihuan said, "The third young master is waiting for you outside."
An Ruowan's eyebrow-drawing fingers paused, "What is he doing outside?"
Caihuan pursed her lips and said cautiously: "The young master... wants to give the young lady some food."
"The third young master said that if you are busy, he will sit in the yard and wait for you."
An Ruowan frowned and said calmly: "If he wants to wait, let him wait there."
"Yes, miss."
At this moment, the back door of the Prime Minister's Mansion quietly opened, and An Zhining's figure quietly walked into the yard!
She was still carrying a package on her back. Although the Prime Minister's Mansion had taken care of it, she suffered a lot in Zhuangzi in just one night!
The village outside is not like the house, the clothes are made of coarse linen clothes, and the living quarters are also rough.
An Zhining was raised in the mansion with fine clothes and fine food. How could she bear such suffering? She gave the old lady who looked after the door a few taels of silver and ran back overnight.
She originally wanted to ask third brother for help, but when she arrived at An Huaiming's yard, she didn't see him. She overheard the servants at the door talking, and then she realized that third brother had gone to An Ruowan's yard!
An Zhining clutched the baggage tightly, the uneasiness in her heart spread, and she hurriedly ran towards An Ruowan's yard!
An Huaiming held a box of exquisite pastries and sat politely at the stone table in the front yard.
After about a stick of incense, An Ruowan walked out from the back of the yard.
An Huaiming immediately stood up with a confused expression and smiled at her, "Wanwan, I went to Jufangzhai specially to buy you a snack!"
After taking a look at the snacks on the table, An Ruowan said with a calm expression, "I don't like sweets, please take them back."
An Huai was obviously a little embarrassed. He squeezed the snack box in his hand and said, "What do you like to eat...next time...I will buy it for you next time."
"No need, I'm used to suffering outside. I eat everything. There's nothing I can't eat, and there's nothing I like to eat."
Listening to An Ruowan's cold tone, An Huaiming felt sour in his heart for no reason, and he didn't say anything for a while.
An Ruowan only glanced at him, then took Caihuan to go into the house, "Go back."
"sorry!"
An Huaiming suddenly spoke out, and his raised tone suddenly dropped after he said he was sorry.
"I asked my mother. Because of my eldest brother's official career, even though they knew you were living abroad, it was our fault that they didn't bring you back..."
An Ruowan's cold voice interrupted him, "Whether it's right or wrong, I don't want to mention what happened back then."
"Don't mention it!" An Huaiming picked up Jufangzhai's pastry and stuffed it into Caihuan's hand, "You have to wait for two hours to buy this pastry. If you really don't want to eat it... just throw it away. No problem."
Before anyone could react, a figure flashed past and knocked the cake out of An Huaiming's hand!
An Huaiming looked angry, turned around and shouted: "Who is this person! How dare you..."
His words were stuck in his throat and he looked at the person in front of him with wide eyes, "Zhining... you... why are you here?!"
"If I weren't here, I wouldn't be able to see my brother coaxing her!!"
An Zhining's eyes were red, and when she saw An Huaiming giving An Ruowan snacks to coax her, she completely lost her mind!
"Brother!! I've only been away from home for less than half a day, have you forgotten Zhining?"
An Huaiming was stunned and didn't respond, "Shouldn't you be on Zhuangzi now? Why are you here?"
An Ruowan looked at the hysterical An Zhining with cold eyes and said in a calm and meaningless voice, "Don't you need to ask? She escaped from Zhuangzi."
"Zhining!" An Huaiming said immediately: "I will have the carriage take you back right now. You ran out of the village privately. This is a big deal!"
An Zhining held her chest and took a few steps back, looking at the third brother who usually doted on her in disbelief, "Third brother! That Zhuangzi is no place for people at all! You don't want to save me! Instead, you want to send me away Go back! Are you still my brother?!"
The quarrel in the courtyard spread, attracting the other two brothers of the An family who were coming back from the next court.
"What's going on here!"
An Huaiyu, dressed in court uniform, frowned, acting like an elder brother, "Zhining?"
An Zhining burst into tears. When she saw An Huaiyu, she immediately ran to him, threw herself into his arms and sobbed, "Brother, please beg your parents for mercy! That Zhuangzi is really not a place for human beings. Ning'er is about to die." I was rubbed to death!!”
"Haha." An Ruowan sneered from the side.
An Huaiyu looked at An Ruowan's indifferent look, her eyebrows skipped a beat, "An Ruowan! You can still laugh! If it weren't for this, would Ning'er be like this!"
An Ruowan glanced at him, raised her lips and continued to smile, "I've only been there for half a day. Even if I want to rub her, I still have time, right?"
"What's more, when her parents sent her there, didn't they already take care of everything so that she wouldn't suffer any injustice?"
"It's just because you can't be a rich lady and can't stand the unbearable food and accommodation in Zhuangzi, so you ran back, right?"
The unwillingness in her heart was exposed, and An Zhining's tears fell even more happily, "Sister, I really don't know where I offended my sister, and she can't tolerate me like this!"
"If that's the case, then I have no shame in living. I might as well just die!!"
In an instant!
An Zhining pulled out the hairpin from her head and wanted to insert it into her neck!
An Huaiyu quickly stopped the person with quick eyes and hands, and pulled out the hosta from An Zhining's hand, "Ning'er!! Don't do anything stupid!"
"Brother! I really can't survive!"
An Zhining's tears seemed to have been broken, falling down patter-patter. Her face was haggard, and anyone who looked at her would feel distressed.
But An Ruowan was too lazy to follow her lead, and slowly walked forward, pulled out the hairpin from his head, and handed it to her.
"You don't have the hairpin anymore. I'll lend it to you. You can do it."
An Zhining nestled in An Huaiyu's arms, her face stiffened by An Ruowan's actions!
An Huaiyu slapped An Ruowan's hand away and stared at her fiercely, "Ning'er is like this and you still don't let her go. How come I didn't know that my biological sister can be so vicious!"
"Have I not always been like this in your eyes?"
An Ruowan shrugged indifferently, looking at An Huaiyu with a playful look in her eyes, "Why, brother, aren't you pretending now?"
An Huaiyu's face also looked a little ugly. No matter how much he disliked An Ruowan, he would not show it too openly...
"Brother, why are you talking to her so much!" An Huaiying hated An Ruowan the most and glared at her fiercely, "We just ask mother to keep Ning'er! Let's see what she can do!"
An Ruowan blinked and smiled at a few people: "I can't do anything. The worst thing is that we will uncover what happened before and we will die."
