"You mean, my mother?"
Xiao Qinyu's eyes lit up, but after thinking about it, he quickly shook his head.
"No." He sighed and smiled bitterly: "If mother knew these things, she would not like Xiaorou. If he can't get her, can I get her?"
"You have a point."
Ruan Yunluo nodded in agreement.
Instead of continuing to persuade him, she enlightened him, "In fact, sometimes perfection is also a kind of virtue. I am very happy that you can think so. I was originally worried that you would get into trouble because of this matter, but now it seems that it is. I’m overthinking it.”
"Where are you standing?!"
The more Xiao Qinyu listened, the more something was wrong, and he quickly asked Ruan Yunluo to stop.
He wondered what was going on with this man. He had just said that he wanted to cooperate. Why did he start talking to Xiao Chongjing again in the blink of an eye?
"Both of them...are you not angry at all?" Xiao Qinyu was curious, "Didn't you come to me to break them up?"
"Why should I break them up?" Ruan Yunluo laughed. She shook her head and said helplessly: "Your brother and I have been married for so many years but we still haven't had any children. There was a lot of gossip in the clan. Now that he is willing to take concubines, it's too late for me to be happy."
"Then how did you..."
"I just don't want you to be decadent all the time." Ruan Yunluo looked at Xiao Qinyu with a distressed look on his face, and said seriously: "For me, it doesn't matter whether you take a concubine or not. The important thing is that this family cannot be separated. I raised you with my own hands. When I grow up, he is my husband, and the palms and backs of my hands are full of flesh."
"So you are still facing him, right?" Xiao Qinyu looked at Ruan Yunluo with red eyes, aggrieved, "You know I won't do that, why are you still pretending to give me advice? You just want to persuade I just fulfill them, right?!"
"of course not."
Ruan Yunluo looked at Xiao Qinyu in surprise, as if he didn't understand why he thought so.
She shook her head in disappointment, but explained patiently, "I'm just giving you a choice. Either, you accept the two of them being together, forget about Miss Xiao Rou, and stop being decadent like this. Or, you just break them up." , take responsibility like a man, eliminate all obstacles, and give her happiness yourself. No matter what you choose, it is better than giving up on yourself like you."
"What you said is simple." Xiao Qinyu was unconvinced, "Involving my mother, even if we break them up, will my mother allow me to be with her?"
"Then this is what you asked for. You can't blame others."
Ruan Yunluo's face turned cold, and he looked at Xiao Qinyu with even more disappointment, "No wonder Miss Xiaorou doesn't like you. You open your mouth to call me mother and shut your mouth to call me mother. How can any woman like you? You can't even fight your mother for the woman you love." If you don’t have the courage to fight, what can she do even if she really likes you? With her status, your mother will never allow her to marry you, right? In fact, you have never had her ability, and you have never had it. You haven't thought about the future between you and her, have you? In that case, why do you need to provoke her, and why do you act like you are dying when she is with someone else? "
"I……"
Xiao Qinyu's face turned red and he stared at Ruan Yunluo for a long time, speechless.
"You really disappoint me." Ruan Yunluo lowered his head, looked down at Xiao Qinyu's embarrassed look, and sneered: "Xiao Qinyu, I advise you, with your current appearance, it is best not to appear in front of Miss Xiao Rou. In front of me, otherwise she will definitely feel ridiculous. She will be very happy that she did not choose you. "
"A brat like you who has no courage, no courage, no responsibility, has no ability to make any woman happy!"
"I……"
Xiao Qinyu was stunned.
He wanted to refute Ruan Yunluo, but when he opened his mouth, he found that he had no way to refute.
She was right, he was indeed too naive. With Xiaorou's identity, her mother would never agree to her being the second grandma of the Xiao family, regardless of whether she had anything to do with Xiao Chongjing or not.
He has always claimed that he likes her, but he doesn't even consider the most fundamental things for her. What qualifications does he have to say that he likes her?
No wonder, no wonder she would rather be Xiao Chongjing's concubine than look at him.
Maybe she saw that he was unreliable from the beginning...?
Xiao Qinyu held his head in pain and didn't even notice when Ruan Yunluo left. It wasn't until it got dark that he stumbled back to his study, picked up paper and pen, and wrote a fierce letter to Puyu Mountain.
Ruan Yunluo, on the other hand, came to Haitang Pavilion again.
"Third sister, are you going out for something?" Seeing Xiao Qintang specially dressed in rain silk brocade, Ruan Yunluo smiled and joked, "Does third sister have someone important to meet?"
"What does it have to do with you?" Xiao Qintang snorted.
She still held grudges about Ruan Yunluo's previous favoritism and was still unwilling to pay attention to her.
"It's nothing." Ruan Yunluo didn't care about her offense. Instead, he cared about her sincerely, "It's just that I heard that you always go out at night and come back early in the morning these days... I'm worried, so I specially found a few strong women and asked them to follow you. To save you from being bullied.”
"Hello, miss."
Following Ruan Yunluo's words, several stout women behind her came forward and saluted Xiao Qintang with a smile.
"Sister-in-law, are you crazy?!" Xiao Qintang glanced at the women and wrinkled her nose in disgust.
Other people's eldest ladies only take their young maids with them when they go out. Why should she take her mother-in-law with her when she goes out? !
How will others see her if she takes so many women out? !
It’s not embarrassing enough!
"Aren't I thinking about your safety? You are a little girl, if something happens at night..."
"Enough, enough..." Ruan Yunluo wanted to say more, but Xiao Qintang interrupted impatiently. She raised her chin and looked at her sister-in-law with arrogance, and said confidently: "You have forgotten that I have learned martial arts since I was a child. Instead of worrying about my safety, you should worry about others."
"That's not what I'm worried about." Ruan Yunluo smiled, "Of course I know that your martial arts skills are very strong, and outsiders generally can't hurt you. But you are simple-minded, and I'm afraid that you will make bad friends and be deceived by others."
"What do you mean?!"
Xiao Qintang finally heard something was wrong.
She looked at Ruan Yunluo in disbelief and said warily: "Did you send someone to follow me?"
"I just understand you." Ruan Yunluo said calmly. She first waved the servant away, then pulled Xiao Qintang to sit down in a heart-to-heart manner, and asked pointedly: "That's a man, right?"
