Chapter 26 Returning to Xie's House(1/2)
The next day, Ruan Li, who had made up her mind, came together without saying a word and asked Ziyu to pack her things and prepare to wait for the Xie family to pick her up.
Since Shen's Mansion didn't have what she was looking for, she went back to Xie's Mansion to take a look. After all, Xie's Mansion was the place where her mother was married. If Xie's Mansion didn't have it, then would the Qingshui Order be in the palace.
"Master, why are we leaving? The general will be sad if you leave."
Ziyu asked Ruan Li while packing her things.
Hearing Ziyu's words, Ruan Li couldn't help but think of what Shen Sichen said on the carriage yesterday.
If she behaves like this, does it mean that she is very guilty?
Ruan Li thought about it again and again, but still couldn't figure out the reason. She asked Ziyu, "Ziyu, if a man confessed to you one day and you left the next day, wouldn't it seem like you would be very upset?" Feeling guilty?"
However, she regretted it as soon as she asked this question. She glanced at the astonished expression on Ziyu's face and quickly took out a letter, planning to fool him.
"Ziyu, I have something to trouble you with. You should go to the Fuxing Restaurant now and give this letter to the shopkeeper."
She didn't even have to think about it. Since they were there, that restaurant must be the property of the Yun family.
"Okay, miss."
After receiving Ruan Li's instructions, Ziyu took the letter and left without delay.
However, she waited for some time and found that no one from the Xie family had arrived yet.
Ruan Li waved his hand and motioned for the secret guard above to come down.
After a while, Eleven was pushed down.
"master."
"Go and see, why haven't the Xie family members arrived yet?"
Ruan Li frowned. Logically speaking, at this hour, the Xie family should be here.
After a while, Eleven came back.
Ruan Li looked at Eleven who was afraid to say something in front of her, and made a rough guess in her mind.
"Master, the Xie family came to pick you up this morning. The young master was stunned and didn't let anyone in. He also said that they are not allowed to step into the Shen family or get close to you for the rest of their lives."
After hearing Eleven's words, Ruan Li reacted for a while. She really didn't expect Shen Sichen to let them in.
"Okay, I understand, you can go back first."
After saying that, Ruan Li strode towards the door.
Since she wants to return to the Xie family, how can the Xie family be kept out?
Sure enough, as soon as she walked to the gate, she heard Anan's shy tone.
"Our young master has said that he will hold and coax people who you don't cherish like treasures. I didn't see you being so attentive before, but now you are here to catch up."
Qian and Xie Ruoling stood there, dumbfounded as they were being talked about, with extremely worried expressions on their faces. However, Xie Ruoling couldn't be reconciled. Ruan Li's smile and frown yesterday were all lingering in his mind. Now he just wants to take Ruan Li back. .
"Little guard, just be accommodating and let us in. We, the Xie family, will naturally benefit from you."
"Bah, your grandpa, I don't care about your little reward. Your little reward is not enough to fill my teeth."
After listening to Anan's words and looking at the irritated expression on his face, Ruan Li smiled.
How did such a noble and proud General Shen teach such a funny guard?
"Anan."
Ruan Li walked over and stopped Anan.
"Young Madam."
Seeing that it was his young lady who was coming, Anan also bowed respectfully.
"Where is your young general?"
Ruan Li deliberately did not look at the Qian family, pretending that they did not exist, and talked to Anan as if nothing had happened.
"Go back to the young lady, the master is still in the room."
"Still in the room? Aren't you going to do the morning service this morning?"
"Back to the young lady, the young master said that he was afraid that you would be bullied and he wanted to support you, so he will not go to the morning court today."
Xie Ruolingxu couldn't stand Ruan Li turning a blind eye to them, so he coughed twice. Unexpectedly, Ruan Li still seemed not to hear, so he spoke out.
"Aruan, we are here to take you home."
"Home? What home? Isn't Shen Mansion my home? Also, who are you and who are you looking for?"
Ruan Li looked at him with a smile, as if she had not seen him yesterday.
"Aruan, it doesn't matter if you don't remember me. You should always remember our mother."
Seeing Ruan Li pretending not to recognize him, Xie Ruoling pulled Qian to the front.
"Mother? My mother died fifteen years ago. What kind of mother is my current mother?"
"A Ruan, I was sorry for you before, but now I'm here to apologize to you, so just come with us."
More and more people are gathering in front of the Shen Mansion. These people have always wanted to watch the excitement, so how can they miss this good opportunity to watch a show?
"I'm sorry, but you actually want to take my Ruan Ruan back to Xie's Mansion?"
At this time, Shen Sichen's somewhat angry voice came from inside, and then he walked out, holding a light blue cloak in his hand.
This cloak was specially customized by him. It is the same as the cloak that Ruan Li wore when he was drunk. Shen Sichen gently put the cloak on Ruan Li's body, as gently as he wanted. How gentle.
Originally I wanted to settle it quickly, but it turned out that it was better now. Shen Sichen came out. Why did she say that she wanted to go back to Xie's house?
For the first time in her life, Ruan Li had the idea of escape.
"Si Chen, Ah Ruan is a girl who has not left the court after all. It is not good to live in your house for a long time. Besides, when she gets married, it will be hard to get married in the Shen Mansion."
"What's the matter? Even if we really have to follow these so-called etiquette, I can just buy another house for Ruan Ruan, so I won't thank my aunt for taking the trouble."
Unexpectedly, Ruan Li nodded.
"Si Chen, I think what my aunt said makes sense."
After hearing her words, Shen Sichen became anxious.
"What sense does that make? I'm telling you, as long as you want to stay, no one in the entire Kyoto would dare to gossip about you."
"Si Chen, yes, they won't say anything for the sake of the Shen family, but I am different. I am a woman after all, and I have to consider worldly prejudices. They won't say anything in front of us.
But no one knows what they will think of me in their hearts."
Ruan Li said these words softly, hoping that Shen Sichen would understand her.
However, Shen Sichen understood, but he still didn't want Ruan Li to return to Xie's family. He wanted to protect her.
"But you don't have to go back to Xie's house."
Shen Sichen's words sounded extremely aggrieved, which made Ruan Li feel inexplicably distressed.
"Sichen, you have to believe me. I can't just let you protect me. And you know me. I don't want them to think of me as your fiancée Shen Sichen when they mention me. I hope they will think of me." I am a descendant of the Ruan family, the daughter of Ruan Jiuge, the continuation of glory."
"Shen Sichen, I will never leave. In other words, I will always be here."
Ruan Li looked at Shen Sichen with a smile, her eyes filled with tenderness.
The next period of time is just enough for Shen Sichen to come down and think about his feelings for her.
"Aunt, I'm going back, but I want to live next to Xie Ruowei's room.
I don’t know what Xie Ruowei will feel like when she comes back and sees someone she hates next to her room.
"Okay, okay."
Before Qian could say anything, Xie Ruoling agreed.
Seeing Xie Ruoling's unrestrained and squinting look, Shen Sichen drew the sword in his arms.
Ruan Li obviously noticed Shen Sichen's movements, stretched out his hand to hold Shen Sichen's hand, and motioned for him to put the sword in his arms.
"Shen Sichen, I'll leave first."
Ruan Li looked at him with a smile, her eyes were like crescent moons, and she added,
"Anan, Xiao He, take good care of your master."
"You should also take care of yourself. Remember, I will always be your backing. You can always believe that there is me behind you."
"I know."
Although she knew that men's words usually could not come true, and they were just talking about it for fun. However, the other party was Shen Sichen, so she was willing to try to believe it.
After saying that, Ruan Li followed Xie Ruoling and the others.
Shen Sichen stood there for a long time. Xie's carriage disappeared into the sea of people for a long time, and he was unwilling to leave.
However, things were not going so well for Ziyu on the other side.
She walked into the restaurant, but she couldn't find the owner of the restaurant.
She stood downstairs in confusion, watching the rich men coming and going.
