Su Ruotang lowered her long eyelashes and half-closed her eyes, covering up the self-mockery that disappeared in an instant.
After a while, she stood up and walked towards the bed.
Mo Ronyan closed his eyes and held her wrist, "What exactly do you want?"
Su Ruotang turned her back to him, without looking back, and her sweet voice was calm, "Where did you learn the word jealous?"
It stands to reason that Mo Ronyan is cold and unreasonable, and it is impossible for him to know the word jealous.
But he kept saying that he was jealous, which proved that someone had told him.
He knew the word jealous, but he didn't know why the woman was jealous.
However, for a banished immortal like him who is only suitable to be worshiped on the top of the snow-capped mountains, it is really not easy to know the word jealous.
Mo Rongyan frowned: "Is this important?"
"It's not important." Su Ruotang shook off his hand, and the last trace of extravagant hope in her heart disappeared.
After a moment of silence, Mo Ronyan lay down outside the window, closed his eyes tiredly, and explained, "I saw it in the storybook. The storybook said that the woman's behavior was because of jealousy."
In the darkness, Su Ruotang's soft white fingertips curled up.
Feeling the hot breath beside her, she thought she would not be able to sleep.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a dreamless night.
...
The next day, Su Ruotang woke up early and found his side empty.
She subconsciously stretched out her long fingers and touched the quilt beside her.
Cool to the touch.
The white and tender fingertips were slightly curled, and there was a complicated look in Su Ruotang's eyes.
After a while, she lazily got up.
He gently helped her change her clothes and comb her hair, and asked casually: "Miss, do you want to wear this purple jade hairpin?"
Su Ruotang was silent.
The thin white fingertips slid over the pear wood box containing the hosta, with a casual look on his face, not knowing what he was thinking.
However, Yuan Yu came in with the dress and couldn't help but sigh, "Princess, His Highness is really interested in you."
Qingtuan turned her head and looked at the light blue gradient and brilliant dress in her hand. She was shocked and said, "Is this a mermaid brocade?"
Mackerel brocade is produced in the northern coastal areas of Dongqi, and there is only one piece every year.
As for this dress, the hem is layered and requires at least three pieces of sea brocade to be made.
Su Ruotang raised her long eyelashes slightly, looking at the sparkling dress in Yuan Yu's hand, her eyes trembled slightly.
Yuan Yu stepped forward with a smile and put her dress on the table, "Why don't the princess use that blue jade?"
Su Ruotang's fingertips fell on the blue jade, and the snow-white fingertips were even more beautiful than the snow against the clear aqua hairpin.
She gently stroked the begonia flower at the end of the hairpin, and her pink fingernails fell on the flower's stamens, revealing an inexplicable charm.
After a long while, Su Ruotang slammed the lid on the box and said calmly: "Wear that off-white dress, it's simple and easy to wear."
Yuan Yu and Qing Wan were both stunned.
At this moment, Shen Shi came over and whispered: "Princess, Your Highness is waiting for you."
Su Ruotang watched Qingwan deftly twist her hair into a bun and put on the step, and then said calmly: "No time."
Shen Shi remembered what His Majesty had told him and continued: "His Highness said that today I will take you to the place where the injured soldiers live outside the city."
Su Ruotang's eyes trembled slightly and glanced at the space bracelet on her wrist.
There are enough cases for her to study in this life for the diseases that she was unable to overcome in her previous life.
She... really couldn't refuse.
After a moment of silence, Su Ruotang stood up, and an indifferent voice carried on the wind, "I'll go back to the Su Mansion first, and you can pick me up at the Su Mansion later."
After that, she thought for a while, took out an ibuprofen and Likeshu from the medical space, "Give him these two medicines."
Shen Shi took the strange pill in her hand and thanked her in surprise, "Thank you, Princess."
Watching Shen Shi leave, Su Ruotang blinked and felt as if he had done something stupid.
That bitch should have died of illness and been thrown into a mass grave.
The cold poison in his body was suppressed by her using special acupuncture techniques.
It's just an ordinary wind chill, and the fever doesn't go away in three days.
It can only explain one thing, the dog man did not take the medicine as prescribed by the doctor at all!
In other words, I didn’t even see the doctor!
...
Lin Mu learned early in the morning that the second lady was returning to the mansion today, and waited in front of the mansion early.
Seeing Su Ruotang's carriage, he quickly stepped forward and opened the curtain, "Miss."
Su Ruotang got off the carriage and asked casually: "Is there anything unusual in the house recently?"
"No, except that a scorpion bit a boy to death a few days ago."
"Hasn't the house been killed recently?"
Lin Mu had confusion in his eyes: "I do it every seven days. There has never been a scorpion or centipede bite to death before."
"And I showed this scorpion to Dr. Changfeng, and he said it doesn't look particularly poisonous. How could it bite someone who is always in good health?"
"But the people we invited here are all poisoned by scorpion poison."
Su Ruotang paused slightly and asked without hope, "Is Scorpion still there?"
Lin Mu nodded: "Yes, in the old slave's room."
"How did the boy look when he died?"
Lin Mu recalled it carefully and considered the words, "The lips were purple, the eye sockets were black, the complexion was blue, and black blood was flowing out of the seven orifices. It looked very oozing."
Su Ruotang narrowed his eyes and suddenly asked: "Did he have any conflict with the Zhang family on the day he died?"
"should not......"
Before Lin Mu finished speaking, the servant behind him interrupted, "Miss, Butler Lin, asked Mr. Zhang to wash his clothes on the day Ergou died."
Su Ruotang frowned slightly, stopped and looked at the boy behind her, "How do you know?"
The boy said respectfully: "I was passing by the backyard that day and saw Ergou throwing his clothes on Mrs. Zhang's head."
"When I changed my clothes and came back, Ergou was dead."
Su Ruotang looked at Lin Mu and said solemnly, "Bring the scorpion to Qinxinyuan first."
Lin Mu had always felt that Ergou's death was a bit strange. At this time, he noticed the solemnity in Su Ruotang's tone and immediately realized that something was wrong.
He quickly agreed and hurried towards the room.
Su Ruotang walked all the way to the ancestral hall. When he saw the people kneeling in the ancestral hall, sarcasm flashed in his eyes.
She took three sticks of incense, turned them over and lit them, then gently inserted them in front of the memorial tablet engraved with "Su Qi's Beloved Wife - Tan Xiangran", and kowtowed three times respectfully.
I sighed silently in my heart - Su Ruotang, I hope you and your mother can get together under the clouds.
After the original owner's mother died, Mrs. Zhang did not allow her to come to the ancestral hall to worship her mother.
She could only use the money she earned from collecting herbs to buy a few sticks of incense every year on her mother's death anniversary, at the risk of being beaten to pieces, and go to the mountains behind the city to worship quietly.
Fortunately, the original body type does not leave scars and does not tan.
Otherwise, just these scars would give her a headache.
Su Qi watched her movements in silence, moved her lips, and spit out two indistinct syllables, "Tang'er..."
Su Ruotang's red lips formed a sarcastic smile and she tilted her head to look at him, "Prime Minister Su, you said that if I told your 'loved wife' that after her death, you were indifferent to her daughter and allowed Mrs. Zhang and Su Muyao to bully her. .”
"Tell me, will your 'beloved wife' forgive you?"
