Sui Feng Garden.
After Xiao Chongjing washed up, he changed his clothes and sat on a chair. He unconsciously glanced at the night outside the window again, looking very worried, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Finally, he couldn't help but stood up, coughed first, and then said to Ruan Yunluo: "Well, I suddenly remembered that I still have something to deal with, and I have to go to the study. You have a hard day, just rest first, don't wait for me."
"study?"
Ruan Yunluo, who was sitting in front of the dressing table, seemed to have thought of something. Her fingers holding the hairpin paused for a moment. She raised her head and looked at Xiao Chongjing in the mirror as if unconsciously. She smiled and said, "Isn't that place quite close to Longyan Pavilion?"
"What do you mean?"
In the mirror, Xiao Chongjing's expression froze.
He was a little annoyed and said angrily in a low voice: "I went to the study for business, what does it have to do with Longyan Pavilion?! How can you be jealous of a little girl at such an old age?!"
"Where did you think you were?" Ruan Yunluo looked at Xiao Chongjing in the mirror in surprise and asked puzzledly: "How old is Miss Xiaorou? She is the same as the third sister in my heart. How can I be jealous of her?"
"Then what are you doing with the cage in the smoke pavilion?"
After heaving a sigh of relief, Xiao Chongjing asked a little unnaturally.
"I want to send something to Longyan Pavilion. I saw you were on your way and wanted to ask you to take it there."
As soon as Ruan Yunluo finished speaking, there was a knock on the door, and Nanny Wan walked in holding two brocade quilts.
Putting the brocade quilt next to Xiao Chongjing's hand, she explained with a smile, "This quilt is newly made this year. It has a genuine Western Region cotton core and a Yun brocade quilt cover. I originally planned to keep it for the general, but my wife said it was cold in the autumn night. I was afraid that the distinguished guest would be cold, so I asked him to stay close to the Longyan Pavilion for now... I didn't expect that Madam Xiang's good intentions actually made the general worry too much."
"I……"
Xiao Chongjing's face turned red.
He waved his hand to let Nanny Wan go out first. He walked up to Ruan Yunluo with some guilt, bent down and held her shoulders to apologize in a low voice, "Madam, I wronged you."
"It doesn't matter."
A trace of disgust flashed in Ruan Yunluo's eyes.
She stood up, stuffed the brocade quilt into Xiao Chongjing's arms, and urged her very sensibly: "Since you have business, don't delay, and go quickly."
"Not urgent."
Looking at Ruan Yunluo's dignified and gentle face under the candlelight, Xiao Chongjing suddenly couldn't bear to leave.
He thought back to when he was young.
At that time, Ruan Yunluo, as the legitimate daughter of the Ruan family prime minister, was already somewhat elegant and open-minded at the age of fifteen or sixteen, and was the favorite daughter-in-law of the wealthy families in Kyoto. He went through a lot of effort to marry her at that time.
On the day she got married to him when she was eighteen, he even took the wedding team around Kyoto twice more, wishing the whole world knew that Ruan Yunluo was his Xiao Chongjing's wife...
But less than a year after getting married, everything changed.
His father died in the war, his mother had a difficult childbirth due to grief, and her newborn twin brothers and sisters needed to be taken care of... A beam from the General's Mansion suddenly fell on him.
In order to revitalize the general's palace, he had no choice but to join the army. From then on, he and Ruan Yunluo began to spend less time together and more time apart.
The separation lasted for a long time, and the feelings in my heart naturally faded away.
A year ago, just when he was already numb to the blood and loneliness of the northwest battlefield, he accidentally caught a glimpse of a delicate and white figure...
With a tremor in his heart, Xiao Chongjing quickly cut off his thoughts.
He put the quilt back on the table, sideways away from Ruan Yunluo and said: "It's just two quilts, just ask the servants to send them over. What do you mean if I go?"
"Aren't you on your way?"
Ruan Yunluo didn't care, "Besides, I didn't ask you to deliver it in person. I just asked the boy to hand it over to Wen Yu. There's nothing wrong with it."
Xiao Chongjing was speechless.
He picked up the brocade quilt a little irritably, with a look of helplessness, "Okay, okay, I can't help you, why don't I give it away? I'll give it to the head office myself!"
After saying that, he left angrily.
It seemed like he was really reluctant.
Aunt Wan was anxious, and quickly entered the room and came to Ruan Yunluo, and said worriedly: "Madam, the general has finally come back, why are you driving people out? It seems to make the general angry..."
gas?
It's not too late for him to be happy!
Looking at Xiao Chongjing's back disappearing into the dark night with long strides, a hint of sarcasm flashed in Ruan Yunluo's eyes.
She looked at Aunt Wan and asked, "How is Third Miss doing? Have you calmed down?"
"without."
Aunt Wan shook her head and felt worried, "Miss Third, she was throwing things in the house. She said she didn't know who was her biological child, so she might as well give away all her things. She also said she didn't want to be the lady of the General's Mansion anymore. Let Miss Rou be...
Madam, as the saying goes, strong-willed melons are not sweet. In my opinion, these three young ladies and Miss Rou are naturally at odds with each other, so it’s better to keep them apart and not bring them together. "
"No."
Ruan Yunluo interrupted Nanny Wan with a smile.
In the last life, Xiao Qintang always thought that she was not good enough to Yin Xiaorou. In this life, she wanted to see if Xiao Qintang herself could treat the intruder who took everything from her as a good sister without any grudges.
"Miss Third is just spoiled. Just send more people to persuade her to be generous. Don't take her too seriously."
Ruan Yunluo explained indifferently and yawned from sleepiness.
"But madam..."
Aunt Wan worriedly wanted to persuade her again, but when she saw the sleepiness in Ruan Yunluo's eyes, she stopped talking.
After waiting for Ruan Yunluo to rest, she quietly exited the room.
After closing the door and looking up in the direction of Longyan Pavilion, she sighed silently and couldn't help but mutter, "I really don't know what Madam is thinking. Is it necessary to treat her so well? Not to mention giving her a bracelet, two consecutive The general even asked the general to deliver the quilt in person, but luckily my wife was able to sleep..."
Next to the study, Xiao Chongjing was standing at the corner door hesitating when he suddenly sneezed.
"Sir, is someone thinking about you?" The young man chatted in a flattering manner, holding the quilt and observing his words: "I don't know this place, and I don't know if Young Master Wen Yu and Miss Xiaorou are suitable or not, and whether they are cold or not. "
"Talk too much."
Xiao Chongjing glanced at him displeasedly, raised his steps, and walked through the corner gate towards the Longyan Pavilion.
As soon as I walked into the Longyan Pavilion, I happened to bump into the menacing Xiao Qintang.
