An An successfully returned to Prince Yu's Mansion, and Luo Lan started working on her Rejuvenation Hall again.
Leng Ming felt sorry for An An and did not dare to show up at Prince Yu's Mansion again. However, he often went to the door of Huichun Hall and saw Luo Xue rushing in and out. He felt uncomfortable, but he did not dare to come forward to say hello.
Just as he was standing in the corner looking into the Hall of Rejuvenation, someone tapped his shoulder from behind. He was so frightened that he turned around sharply.
When he saw the person standing behind him, he frowned, patted his chest, and complained:
"Fifth brother, you scared me to death."
Leng Xi shook the fan in his hand and raised his eyebrows with a smile.
"What are you looking at? The second young lady of the Liu family?"
Leng Ming pretended to be fine and shook his head.
"No...no, just...just looking around."
"Just take a look? Come here every day to take a look? I think you are here to look at the plum blossoms to quench your thirst!"
"What do you mean? What happened to me looking at the plum blossoms to quench my thirst? She is not married, I am not married, and I appreciate her. This is human nature. Is it possible that the fifth brother should also take care of this matter?"
"I don't care, but I see you pitifully coming to pick up the wall every day, and I feel sorry for you, so I want to help you."
"help me?"
Leng Ming looked at him disdainfully and sneered,
"As far as I know, my fifth sister-in-law has given you the letter of separation many times. You can't even handle your own household affairs, and you still come to help me? It's really ridiculous. In my opinion, you should hurry up and find the fifth sister-in-law. Sister-in-law, otherwise, you won’t even have a son.”
"you……"
Leng Xi was about to get angry at him, but quickly stopped.
"Forget it, since you don't want me to help you, then I'm leaving. You have to think carefully about how many years Luo Xue is older than you. If you continue like this, she will get married later, so don't cry."
Leng Xi's words were like a thorn in Leng Ming's heart.
Luo Xue and Luo Lan are the same age, and Luo Lan's child is six or seven years old. If Luo Xue hadn't lived in Chu State, she might have already gotten married and had children.
Now she has just returned to Daning Country and has not found a suitable husband's family yet. Once she finds one one day, it will be too late for him to regret it.
"Fifth brother, wait..."
Seeing that Leng Xi was about to turn around and leave, he gritted his teeth and called out to him. He seemed to have made a lot of determination and said:
"How do you want to help me? In other words, what are your conditions?"
"I have no conditions. You are my sixth brother. I don't want to see you worrying about a woman all day long."
"real?"
Leng Ming didn't believe that Leng Xi had such good intentions, but looking at him, it didn't look like he was lying.
He looked at him doubtfully,
"Then how can you help me?"
Leng Xi smiled evilly, then lay down next to his ear and whispered a few words in a low voice.
Before he finished speaking, Leng Ming shook his head vigorously.
"No, what's your crooked idea? I like her, but I can't use such despicable means."
"This is not a despicable method, it is called preemptive strike. She already has a good impression of you, but may not be willing to accept you for some other reasons. You are a man. If you don't take the initiative, how can you get her?"
"Then I won't do this, otherwise she will look down on me. I will make myself very strong so that she can marry me willingly in the future."
"Strong? Hahaha, how can you be strong? What do you have? Apart from the title of Prince Ming, what else do you have? You are not even as good as Leng Yu's little finger. You still want to wait until you become stronger before asking for marriage. Her? I'm afraid that by that time, she will have fallen into someone else's gentle land. "
After saying this, Leng Xi glanced at him disdainfully, turned around, waved his fan, and left in a swaggering manner.
Although the others left, the words they just left still lingered in Leng Ming's ears.
Yeah, what does he have? Even if he wants to become stronger, he must have that chance?
There is no chance to become stronger in front of Leng Yu, and Leng Xi cannot protect himself, let alone hope.
Originally, he planned to go to his father and ask him to arrange a suitable position for him, but he was afraid that like Leng Xi said, Luo Xue would not be able to wait.
what to do? what to do?
After walking around in circles for a few times, he walked back to Prince Ming's Mansion in despair.
Naturally, Leng Xi was not so kind to help Leng Ming, he had his own plans.
But what Leng Ming just said made him a little unhappy.
It has been some time since Yu Qiaoqiao took Xiaobao back to her parents' home, and he has not signed the letter of departure sent to Prince Xi's Mansion.
It's not that he doesn't want to sign, nor is he reluctant to part with Yu Qiaoqiao, it's because he has no plans to marry anyone else in this life. Instead of leaving Princess Naxi's position vacant for people to gossip about, it's better to let Yu Qiaoqiao occupy that position, that way Yu Shiming may still be used by him in the future.
Thinking of this, he changed his direction and headed towards Shangshu Mansion.
During this period, Yu Qiaoqiao's mood had been very bad. She still couldn't figure out why Leng Xi hated her so much. She was no worse than others.
Later, she finally figured it out. Instead of struggling with him in Prince Xi's Mansion, it would be better for her to be the second lady of Shangshu Mansion again. Even if she never married, it would be more satisfying than being a widow.
What she didn't expect was that Leng Xi would come to her door more than a month after she left.
Prince Xi came to Shangshu Mansion. This was the first time that he took the initiative to visit Shangshu Mansion since they got married. In the past, he only accompanied her to her parents' home symbolically a few times. He came and sat for a while and then left. He had never eaten in Shangshu Mansion. I didn’t stay here much.
The girl Chuntao came to report in a hurry,
"Miss, Prince Xi is here. He is talking to him in the main hall."
he came?
Yu Qiaoqiao put down the embroidery needle in his hand, frowned slightly, and asked softly:
"Did you tell me what you came here for? Is it to send He Li Shu?"
Chuntao shook her head,
"It doesn't seem so. I didn't mention it, but I listened to what I said, and it seemed that I wanted to take the young master back."
"impossible……"
When she heard that Lengxi was coming to pick up Xiaobao, Yu Qiaoqiao stood up in excitement. She absolutely could not let Xiaobao return to Prince Xi's Mansion. She hurriedly prepared to go outside. Chuntao couldn't help but persuade her:
"Miss, I didn't listen correctly. Otherwise, I'd like to listen again. Please wait a moment."
"No, I'm just going to listen in person. I want to see what he wants to do..."
Before she finished speaking, she was about to walk out. At the same time, Leng Xi also came to the door of her room.
The moment the door opened, she was a little surprised to see Leng Xi standing outside the door, and then she saluted coldly.
"Prince Xi, why do you have time to come to Shangshu Mansion? My father is in the main hall, not here with me."
"I'm coming to find you."
Leng Xi said as he walked into the house. Yu Qiaoqiao originally wanted to stop him, but he already walked in regardless.
She could only wink at Chuntao, and Chuntao retreated with understanding.
"What do you want from me?"
Seeing Leng Xi standing in front of him, Yu Qiaoqiao lowered his head, his voice was cold, without any emotion at all.
