"You two should meet. These past few days, your marriage to Cao Cheng has caused a stir throughout Tangzhou Prefecture. Shen Ci has certainly heard about it." Lu Ying paused and said, "He is very sad. You should go see him."

"Okay, Auntie, I'll listen to you."

-

Afraid that Ye's mother would find out, Lu Ying didn't dare to stay any longer and left quietly.

Soon, she arranged for Ye Qingyue and Shen Ci to meet in a private room in the teahouse.

Seeing Ye Qingyue walk into the box where Shen Ci was, the moment the door closed, Lu Ying felt a hole in her heart.

She sat down, poured the tea, and drank cup after cup, as if she were drinking wine.

"Miss, when did you become so fond of drinking tea?" The little maid looked at her in confusion.

Lu Ying smiled gently. She didn't like drinking tea at all, she wanted to drink wine.

"Don't just stand there. Come on, continue helping your young lady learn sign language."

Ever since Lu Ying started learning sign language, she would find a little maid to practice with her, which helped her learn much faster.

“Miss, are you learning sign language for Master Shen?” the little maid asked hesitantly.

Lu Ying was stunned for a moment, raised her hand and knocked her little head: "What are you thinking about? Your young lady is just bored and thinks it's interesting, so she just learned it casually."

"Really?" The little maid covered her head, feeling a little painful, and pouted.

She always felt that her young lady was saying one thing and thinking another.

She felt that the young lady seemed unhappy recently.

But she was too stupid and didn't know how to make the young lady happy.

Not long after, the door of the box where Ye Qingyue and Shen Ci were slowly opened.

When Lu Ying saw the two holding hands, she felt an inexplicable pain in her eyes and quickly looked away.

When Ye Qingyue and Shen Ci walked out of the box, their hands had already separated.

Their eyes were slightly red, and there was shyness on their faces when they looked at each other.

Ye Qingyue and Shen Ci's relationship progressed rapidly after they expressed their feelings to each other.

Ye Qingyue never went out with Cao Cheng again. She planned to confess to her parents after the provincial examination that she liked Shen Ci and wanted to marry him.

"Miss, are we going back home so early?" The maid asked Lu Ying in confusion after the class at the mansion school. Lu Ying, who always dawdled and was reluctant to go home, had recently returned home on time after class, which really puzzled her.

Lu Ying withdrew her gaze from Ye Qingyue and Shen Ci, tapped the little maid's forehead again, and said in a casual tone: "Why, in your heart, your young lady can't be a good child?"

The little maid was frightened by her words "good girl" and couldn't help sticking out her tongue and making a face.

Lu Ying walked to a tree, picked a leaf casually, held the leaf in front of her eyes, and instantly blocked the sunlight, making her vision dim.

In the past, she dawdled just to see more of Shen Ci and talk more with him. But now that Shen Ci already has Ye Qingyue, what else should she do to stay?

Even if she stayed, Shen Ci's eyes would not fall on her.

Lu Ying laughed to herself, tucked the emerald green leaves between her book, and turned around to leave in a seemingly casual manner.

On this day, Bai Heng, who had been pregnant for ten months, finally gave birth to a beautiful daughter and named her Bai Yu. "Yu" means beautiful jade.

A month later, Bai Heng was released from confinement, and it was also the day when little Bai Yu was one month old.

The Bai family specially held a full moon banquet for little Bai Yu.

Friends such as Zhao Chuchu and other famous people in Tangzhou Prefecture were invited to attend.
