He took his hands out of her clothes, let go of her, sat up, moved to the side, and ignored her.
After being freed, Ruan Tang breathed a sigh of relief, sat up and began to tidy up his messy clothes.
After she put her clothes in order, she couldn't help but look sideways at him.
The man had leaned to the side and closed his eyes. He didn't know if he was really asleep or if he was pretending.
Ruan Tang couldn't see through him, and she didn't know whether he agreed or not what happened just now.
But she didn't have the courage to ask again.
Just now, she was just in a fit of enthusiasm and made such an agreement impulsively.
Any woman would be ashamed to speak of such self-contempt, but she said it easily.
Presumably in his heart, he must be disdainful.
Well, if he hates himself because of this, it can be regarded as a mistake.
Ruan Tang also lowered his eyes and sat quietly aside without saying a word.
After a long time, the carriage finally stopped.
Nanfeng's voice came in from outside: "Your Highness, Miss Ruan, the Marquis of Jingan's Mansion has arrived."
Ruan Tang raised his eyes and saw that Chu Mu made no move and seemed not to open his eyes.
Ruan Tang could only say to him softly and politely: "Thank you, Your Highness, for sending the little girl back."
After saying that, Ruan Tang opened the curtain and got out of the car.
After the footsteps outside faded away, the people in the car slowly opened their eyes.
His eyes were cold and cold, and the coldness and danger just now were gone.
The carriage soon began to gallop again.
After a long time, he opened his mouth and asked Nanfeng outside: "Does anyone know the person behind Shen Qianyi?"
His voice was not loud, but Nan Feng, who was practicing martial arts, could be heard clearly.
"Reporting to Your Highness, I haven't yet. This person is hiding very deep. I'm afraid it won't be possible to find him out for a while."
After a long time, Chu Mu said again: "Keep an eye on him and find him out as soon as possible."
"Yes, Your Highness."
——
In a blink of an eye, it’s Qingming Festival.
It's been more than a month since the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet ended.
After the birthday party, Ruan Tang never saw Chu Mu again.
I think her words and actions really offended him that night.
That's good, without his entanglement, she can spare all her energy to deal with Shen Qianyi.
But Chunhan and the others... may have to stay in Prince Ning's Mansion for some time.
But Ruan Tang felt really relieved in his heart.
Moreover, no one came to trouble her these days, and she stayed in her yard all day long, living quite comfortably.
During the Cold Food Festival two days ago, Ruan Tang was already exhausted after eating two days of cold food.
Therefore, on the third day, Xia Zhu quickly asked Xia Zhu to open a small stove in the small kitchen in the yard and stewed pork knuckles.
As the weather gradually warmed up, Ruan Tang had someone move a soft couch in the room to the yard, where it happened to be placed under the peach tree.
On this day, Ruan Tang got up early and was lying on the soft couch in the courtyard, closing his eyes to catch up on his sleep.
Not long after, Xia Zhu brought out the stewed pork knuckles.
Suddenly the whole yard was filled with fragrance.
Ruan Tang was also attracted by the scent and opened his eyes.
"Miss, sit up quickly and eat while it's hot."
Ruan Tang's eyes lit up when she saw the golden and soft elbow. She couldn't wait for Xia Zhu to serve her dishes, so she picked up her chopsticks and started eating.
It was the first time for her to eat pork elbow so early in the morning.
Not to mention, it’s so fragrant.
And just when Ruan Tang was eating with gusto, a maid hurriedly came in from outside.
When he reached Ruan Tang, he stopped and said, "Miss, the old lady sent a servant to inform you that the aristocratic family in the southern suburbs of the city jointly organized an event, and the old lady asked several young ladies and gentlemen in the family to go out together to play."
Ruan Tang has been in this era for several years, and naturally knows that during the Qingming Festival, in addition to offering sacrifices to ancestors, various activities will also be held.
Not only nobles and nobles have such activities, but common people also have them, but the things they play are different and the specifications are different.
Ruan Tang put down his chopsticks, picked up the handkerchief next to him and wiped his mouth, then said: "I already know, you help me go back to my grandmother, I will dress up, and I will go to the front yard later."
The maid was blessed and retired.
When the maid was no longer visible, Ruan Tang picked up the chopsticks again and continued eating her pork knuckle.
After eating and drinking, he stood up and called to Xia Zhu: "Xia Zhu, please change my clothes and make up for me."
"Okay, miss." Xia Zhu put the leftover elbows into the kitchen, then washed his hands and helped Ruan Tang dress up.
At this time, Ruan Tang took Xia Zhu to the front yard.
As soon as she arrived, Ruan Changhuan also came.
Next to her was a tall man with a face somewhat similar to hers.
From the memory of the original owner, she knew that this was Ruan Changhuan's brother, Ruan Wenxuan.
The same age as the original owner, and even a month older than the original owner.
He was conceived by Ruan Jizhong, the Marquis of Jingan, who was sleeping with Fang Huairou while carrying the original owner's mother on his back.
Not long after the poor original owner was born, his father took Fang Huairou, an infant child, back to the Jing'an Marquis Mansion.
Fang Huairou is Mrs. Ruan's niece, so Mrs. Ruan will naturally not object, and even has a hand in it.
Fang Huairou became Ruan Jizhong's concubine, and Ruan Wenxuan became the eldest son of the Marquis of Jing'an.
Due to Ruan Jizhong's successive betrayals, the original owner's mother soon became depressed. Finally, unable to bear the torture, she proposed to reconcile with Ruan Jizhong.
Ruan Jizhong was naturally very happy, but when he asked the original owner's mother to keep all the dowry, the original owner's mother refused.
So he put it off without signing or leaving the book.
The original owner's mother was angry and took the original owner back to Suzhou. They lived in Suzhou for nearly a year and were later taken back by Marquis Jing'an.
The original owner's mother thought that he was repentant and wanted to make amends with himself, and would definitely treat him well in the future, so she took the original owner back to the Marquis of Jing'an Mansion.
But he didn't expect that this time, he would die because of it.
Under Ruan Jizhong's instruction, Fang Huairou added chronic poison to the original owner's mother's decoction.
Soon, the original owner's mother lingered on the sickbed. After more than a year, she passed away.
Not long after, my mother's family was also wronged and their entire family was executed.
The original owner was only eight or nine years old at that time.
Not long after the original owner's mother passed away, Fang Huairou was carried as the main wife.
The original owner lost his mother's protection, and since then, he has lived a miserable life.
It was also because he grew up in such an environment where he was suppressed and bullied, which created the original owner's cowardly and timid character.
The only bold moment was to escape from the Jing'an Marquis Mansion.
But he was eventually found, and he didn't end up well either.
The original owner's experience made Ruan Tang no longer like Ruan Wenxuan.
"Sister, I'm brother Wenxuan, long time no see." Ruan Wenxuan took the initiative to say hello to her.
Ruan Tang twitched the corners of his lips and nodded gently towards him, "Long time no see."
After saying that, Ruan Tang took a few steps back, widened the distance between the two, and then turned his eyes elsewhere.
But Ruan Wenxuan's eyes were always fixed on her. Even if Ruan Tang didn't look at him, he couldn't ignore his burning eyes.
She couldn't help but frown.
