Fu Hengyu reached out and touched her forehead. "Didn't I tell you not to bother with her? When I take back everything that I have put in her hands in the past three years, you can treat her however you want!"
"Brother, I know what you and mother are planning!"
The old woman and Fu Hengyu's instructions were still ringing in her ears, and it was not that she didn't know what to do.
"I'm just a little angry. She doesn't have my mother in her eyes. I don't know how many days she hasn't greeted her mother. She also doesn't have her brother. She has an ambiguous relationship with the prince and the prince. She also doesn't have me... and Jing'er. Brother, I'm just worried about our family."
Fu Hengyue lowered his head, as if he had suffered a lot of injustice, and all his patience was just because of the two or three words from the person in front of him.
"I know our Yue'er has suffered a lot of injustice. Brother will take care of things for you when he returns today, okay?"
After coaxing her for a while and buying some food for Fu Hengyue on the street, her complexion returned to normal.
After returning to the general's mansion, Fu Hengyue happily returned to his residence, but he hesitated for a long time before he was willing to look for Shen Yuerong.
Chen Yuerong fiddled with the medicinal herbs that had just been dried, and instructed Qinghua and herself to cut out the damaged or messed-up ones and not to mix them together.
Taohua also helped out, and no one in the room was quiet.
Fu Hengyu walked in for a long time, but found that no one in the whole yard took the initiative to talk to him, and he felt a little embarrassed.
"Can't you see I'm standing here?"
Unable to bear it any longer, he finally spoke.
Shen Yuerong put the herbs in her hand back to their original place, raised her head and looked at the person in front of her nonchalantly.
"The general is back early today!"
Since coming back, they did have some arguments, but they never fought each other.
At this moment, Shen Yuerong's nonchalant look made the man in front of her feel a little embarrassed.
"What do you mean? Shen Yuerong, do you not take me seriously at all now?"
Shen Yuerong looked at the person in front of her and spoke with some doubt.
"General, if you need someone to pay attention to you all the time, then you should go to Madam Du first. She is in her advanced period and it is not easy for her to go out. She hopes you can come back early to have dinner with her."
"How can a wife in this world push her husband into the concubine's room? Shen Yuerong, you don't care about me at all, and you still say you don't have other men outside?"
Shen Yuerong frowned and said with some displeasure, "I don't take you seriously, so why do you insist that I have someone else outside? Can't I just wake up and feel that you are not the one I should love, and then stop loving you?"
"You can easily tell whether you love someone or not?"
Fu Hengyu hurriedly took two steps forward, making the two people who were originally working on something a little nervous. He stretched out his hand and pinched Shen Yuerong's neck tightly, and spoke with some displeasure.
"Chen Yuerong, don't play hard to get with me. I hate women using this kind of tactics the most!"
"Do you think that my unreasonable behavior now is just a retreat to gain your attention?"
"Isn't it?"
The man looked at Heng Yu who was standing not far away and remained on alert.
"Mother said that even if your legs and feet were not very good during the past three years, Qinghua was the only one by your side. How come there is a man beside you when I just came back? And you used to have a personal relationship with that prince, so how come you are so close to him all of a sudden?"
He patiently continued to deceive the people in front of him in order to transfer his own property.
"If you feel that I've ignored you, just tell me straight. Wan hasn't been feeling well lately, and the pregnancy is getting further and further. I'm afraid something might happen to the baby, so I always go to her place. Everything I do is just for the sake of the baby!"
The person in front of him tried to persuade her earnestly, but seeing that she refused to say a word, he thought that Shen Yuerong finally understood what he meant.
"But there are still three months to go. When the baby in her belly is born, I will make a decision with her mother to give the child to you. From now on, you and I will live together with the child. Don't make a fuss now!"
The person in front of her was too fake, but Shen Yuerong was not afraid at all, and there was spreading hatred in her eyes.
"I don't want to endure it any longer. You and I have known each other for many years when we were young. Why do we have to hide it from each other? I just want to ask you one question. The day I went to Long'an Mountain, I heard that several veterans who followed you also left the capital, but never came back. Where did they go? When will they come back?"
"What did you say…"
Having his concerns suddenly exposed, he withdrew his hand in a panic, and there was a bit of evasion in his eyes when he looked at Shen Yuerong.
"Look, as long as you feel guilty, you will be afraid that no one knows what you have done. Yu, I know you better than you know yourself."
"Those old soldiers did leave the capital that day, but they just... felt a little bored staying in the capital. They didn't have an official position, and they had been in the capital for a long time. They had almost used up their money, so they wanted to leave early..."
"Then... the carriage from the General's Mansion?"
"What general's carriage?"
The man was asked a little anxiously, and there was some impatience in his tone.
"The carriage I took with Fu Hengyue when I went to Long'an Mountain that day, and she and I came back together in the prince's carriage. Even if it was an empty carriage, it would not have stayed in Long'an Mountain forever. But I saw the same carriage in Fuzhou!"
"Why, a general's mansion as big as this one is going to be so frugal that it has to reuse even one carriage?"
He was defeated step by step by the questions he was asked, and now his psychological defenses had retreated again and again. Looking at the cold sweat on his forehead, Shen Yuerong snorted coldly.
"You always have reasons, but... the facts are there. If I don't know the truth, why would I do this to you? Fu Hengyu, I always... thought you really loved me."
"Of course I love you!"
"Does your love mean taking my life? So many people, so many knives, and such a high cliff. If I fall down and get smashed to pieces, I won't be able to repay my fate. But now you tell me that you like me! Do you have to kill me just because you like me?"
There have been countless quarrels between them.
I have never seen such a peaceful afternoon, Shen Yuerong so calmly put aside all the truth.
"Do you really think that I don't know anything about you and Madam Du? During the three years in this frontier, I, the woman who raised your siblings with great difficulty, who illuminated your mother and took care of everything in the general's mansion, forgot about it and whispered with another woman in the frontier. Have you ever thought about my hard work?"
The man fell to the ground, not expecting that everything he did had already been heard by Shen Yuerong.
