Chapter 43 Why is she here?

Inner Courtyard of the Duke's Mansion

There is a charcoal fire burning in the house, which is as warm as spring.

The servant took the soaked hair tip, bent down and quietly left.

Sheng Wan leaned lazily on the pear-carved chair, resting his sock-covered toes on the extremely hairy Xiao Hui. He squinted his eyes comfortably.

Xiao Hui lay motionless, letting her keep warm.

"If my son is half as well-behaved as he is, I'll be thankful to God."

Sheng Wan twitched her red lips, divided the pastry sent from the palace into several pieces and brought them to Xiao Hui's mouth, feeding them slowly.

Mrs. Sheng has been used to it for a long time, so it is not surprising.

"I don't like hearing what you say. Brother Huai is not as good as you want."

As she said this, she glanced at Sheng Qinan who was standing aside.

"It's a thousand times better than this careless one."

Sheng Qinan:?! I feel wronged.

Sheng Wan sat up slightly and finally got down to business: "Ruan Zhen's life in the Hou Mansion has not been satisfactory in the past few years. People say that she has lost a close relative and doesn't like to go out. But you also have Mrs. Fan's tricks when she was young.

From what I heard, he is even more of a pretentious snobbery now. How can Ruan Zhen's life be better?"

Not only Mrs. Fan, she also thinks that Mr. Marquis is not a good person.

With good luck, he crawled out of Mrs. Fan's belly. After the old marquis left, he justifiably followed the throne.

Look, what happened to the Yong'an Marquis Mansion because of his defeat.

Mrs. Sheng smiled and nodded. She picked up the tea cup and took a sip, teasing: "Why, you're feeling distressed before we even get through?"

Sheng Wan raised his phoenix eyes slightly and spat at her: "Didn't you hear Brother Qi say that the person in the General's Mansion called Sister-in-law Ruan Zhen? Seeing that the Flower Festival was approaching, Brother Huai was determined to let him

It’s harder to get enlightened than to reach heaven. If I don’t come forward and my wife runs away with someone else, I wonder what he will do!”

Her worries are understandable. Who can't figure out what Mrs. Fan's plans are?

If any brother takes a fancy to Ruan Zhensheng's symbol, as long as he is sincere enough, the Marquis Mansion will be close to success.

"But Brother Huai just returned home, and you went to the Hou Mansion to invite Miss Ruan in the blink of an eye. Aren't you afraid that he would be annoyed?"

Sheng Wan sneered: "He dares?"

Sheng Qinan, who acted as the backdrop, was silent: He didn’t dare!

It's just that Gu Huaizhi would take out the anger he received from Sheng Wan on him.

He moved the prayer beads in his wrist.

I wanted to become a monk again.

————

Ruan Zhen was worried all the way. When the carriage stopped, Tan Yun helped her get out of the carriage.

She held the layers of skirts in one hand and walked very carefully.

"Miss Ruan, you're finally here." The old woman waiting outside the house quickly stepped forward and blessed her body respectfully. Then she said with a smile.

"I will show you the way. Madam must be waiting impatiently."

It's a strange passion.

Sheng Wan had already embarrassed Mrs. Xu yesterday, so there was really no need to look for her again.

As the group of people walked in, passing through the long corridor and path, they heard the woman's footsteps stop, and then she called out happily.

"Son."

Ruan Zhen took a breath and followed the mother-in-law's gaze.

Then, when she met the man's dark eyes, she couldn't help but feel her heart skip a beat.

Gu Huaizhi leaned on the wheelchair and was pushed by the boy behind him.

Worrying about bumpy roads, the seats are padded with a thick layer of mink plush cushions. Even the rolling wheels are wrapped in soft cotton.

The man was dressed in black and straight, and his face was unusually pale. He was handsome and indifferent, but he still had a distinguished temperament and was unreasonably noble.

The mother-in-law frowned at that moment: "You are not well yet, so why can't you continue to have children?"

Gu Huaizhi acted as if he hadn't heard anything, staring straight at Ruan Zhen with his falcon eyes without warmth.

The latter quickly withdrew his gaze and held the handkerchief.

Gu Huaizhi's mood was unstable.
