Coming out of Tianxiang Restaurant, Bai Shu hurriedly took Youlan home.
She was going back to get the small gift she had prepared for Liu Ruyin.
She knew that with her around, it was only a matter of time before she could capture her sister-in-law. She couldn't wait to see her.
…
However, when Jiang and his group arrived at Liu's house, Liu Ruyin did not wait for them happily as expected.
Instead, he looked worried and called out to Bai Shu.
"Shu'er, I have something personal to tell you."
Fortunately, the elders of the Bai and Liu families were very familiar with each other, and they knew that the two children had grown up together and had endless things to talk about.
So he let them go to the yard to enjoy the flowers.
"Sister Liu, what's the rush? Today is a very important day in your life."
Bai Shu was confused. She looked at her brother sitting anxiously beside her mother, fearing that something might happen.
She gave Bai Zixuan a soothing look, telling him not to worry, that the marriage would be fine.
Only then did Bai Zixuan sit down steadily and talk with the elders of the Liu family.
"I know. I listen to my father and mother on this matter."
Speaking of marriage, the sweetness on Liu Ruyin's face was real. She was very satisfied to be able to tie the knot with Bai Zixuan.
But obviously, this was not what she wanted to talk about. She took Bai Shu to a deserted corner and whispered,
"Shu'er, what's going on between you and Du Wenqing? People on the street are saying that you agreed to his proposal."
Liu Ruyin heard the news when she went shopping with her mother in the morning.
Bai Shu is not only her good sister, but also her future sister, so she is naturally very concerned about her affairs.
However, Du Wenqing is not a good man. If he wanted to propose marriage, he would have agreed a few months ago when Bai Shu was pursuing him in a big way.
Now Bai Shu had rejected him in the street, and he came after her to propose marriage.
A man who doesn't care about a woman's reputation and feelings is definitely not a good man.
"Did I accept his proposal?"
Bai Shu didn't react for a moment. On such a happy day, she felt it was unlucky to hear Du Wenqing's name!
"Yes, many people on the street are talking about this!"
"If you find a good home, I'll definitely be happy for you, but Du Wenqing is really confused when it comes to relationships. On the one hand, he's proposing marriage to you, while on the other hand, he's entangled with Su Yunxi. You better keep your eyes open!"
Liu Ruyin knew a little about Su Yunxi and Du Wenqing's affairs.
This is all thanks to his boastful mother who tells the neighbors about her son's affairs all day long.
He praised his son to the highest level in heaven and earth,
Although the top scholar is very powerful, there are always people who are better than you.
Children of noble families like Bai Zixuan were carefully nurtured and brought up to serve the imperial court.
If he were to take the exam, it would be hard to tell who would be the top scorer...
"Sister Liu, I know what you mean, but I never promised him anything. Even if there are rumors, I will never marry him!"
Bai Shu knew that Liu Ruyin really regarded her as a good sister.
Because when the original body was blindly praising Du Wenqing, only her family members dared to point out his shortcomings.
No one would risk offending the daughter of the prime minister to remind her.
"Do you really think so? Then why are there so many rumors out there?"
Liu Ruyin looked surprised. She was afraid that even if Du Wenqing had the courage, he wouldn't dare to spread rumors about Bai Shu outside, right?
Even if Bai Shu still hasn't given up on him, how important is a woman's reputation?
"Sister Liu, do you still remember that day when we met Du Wenqing in front of the Prime Minister's Mansion?"
Bai Shu probably knew why rumors were spreading outside.
"Remember, don't you?"
"Did he think that just because you said that he couldn't get a girl with all his talk and tricks, that you would agree if he asked for marriage formally?"
This time Liu Ruyin was really shocked. She covered her mouth in disbelief to prevent the sound from being heard far away.
How could Du Wenqing be so ungrateful? Is he that stupid?
She was also present at that time and saw clearly that when Du Wenqing said he wanted to propose marriage, Bai Shu's face did not smile at all.
It doesn't look like she agreed at all. How could he understand this as agreeing to marry him?
"Yes, it was that time, but don't worry, Du Wenqing will only marry Su Yunxi in the end."
"I'm afraid they've already secretly decided to spend their lives together. The reason they haven't given up on me is probably because my identity is still useful to them."
No matter what their plans are, Bai Shu will make sure they are together.
"Du Wenqing is indeed not someone worthy of trust. With our Shu'er's looks and talent, she will definitely find someone a thousand times better!"
Liu Ruyin intimately pulled Bai Shu's arm. She knew that she deserved better.
"I'm not in a hurry. I'm looking forward to you getting married soon so that we can see each other every day!"
Bai Shu teased Liu Ruyin, and they both burst into laughter. The beauty was like a flower, adding a touch of color to the quaint courtyard.
"You can't see me every day now!"
Liu Ruyin's face was full of shyness as she smiled and played with Bai Shu. The two families lived only across the street from each other.
"How can that be the same? Now I have to run all the way to the Liu family, it's so far! Haha!"
Bai Shu looked at Liu Ruyin's embarrassed and angry expression, and smiled even more happily.
Liu Ruyin didn't know how to refute her for a moment, and just wanted to end the topic quickly.
Suddenly, she noticed the red coral bracelet on Bai Shu's wrist and exclaimed,
"Is this red coral? Let me see it!"
Liu Ruyin carefully pulled Bai Shu's wrist and looked at the string of red coral beads.
The originally dark red beads actually reflected a faint glow under the sun, and if you look closely you can see the texture on them.
It is strung together with precious beads, and the craftsmanship is very exquisite, it is not an ordinary product.
"Where did you get this bracelet?"
Liu Ruyin was not only amazed at the exquisite beauty of the bracelet, but mainly because the red coral of this quality was in high demand!
"It was a gift from the Regent."
Bai Shu saw the value of this bracelet from Liu Ruyin's eyes.
I silently gave Xiao Moqing a thumbs up in my heart. He was so awesome. The royal family members were all generous!
"The Regent gave you a bracelet? This red coral is obviously a gift from the late Emperor to His Highness a few years ago. Not even Her Royal Highness the Princess and the Empress have it!"
Liu Ruyin's mouth opened wide. This was probably the most frightening news she had ever heard.
The Regent made a bracelet with the red coral bestowed by the emperor and gave it to her good sister Bai Shu?
I remember that the eldest princess had asked the prince to come over and make jewelry, but was repeatedly rejected.
Liu Ruyin thought, this world is too mysterious...
"That's because I treated him. It's normal for him to give me a thank you gift."
It seems that Xiao Moqing did not lie to Bai Shu. This is really the only case, otherwise Liu Ruyin would not be so surprised.
"What did you say? Aren't you an expert on female infertility? You?"
