Chapter 146 Who can't live without whom?
Yun Xiangye arrived at the embroidery workshop. She was glad that she had chosen a house with three entrances, even though the location was worse. It was just right for her and Nuonuo to live in the main courtyard.
When Yun Xiangye and Run'er were packing their bags into the house, they heard a maid from an embroidery workshop outside come to report that Prince Xiang wanted to see her.
Upon hearing this, Yun Xiangye asked her maid Danli to refuse and continued to clean the house.
Danli came back after a while, bringing back a stack of banknotes and a land deed and a house deed.
Danli said, "Master, the Prince of Xiang said that he has closed Xiaoyao Pavilion and used you as a bet. He was disrespectful to you, so he specially offered you the title deed of Xiaoyao Pavilion to make amends."
Run'er looked at Yun Xiangye and said, "Prince Xiang is thoughtful."
Yun Xiangye couldn't help but frown. She said, "Put the things down."
Yun Xiangye thought that if the princess wanted the 30,000 taels of silver back, she would return it. If the princess didn't want it, she would keep it for Nuonuo first, and then give it to Nuonuo when she grew up.
It was getting dark, and Yun Xiangye was in the room teaching Nuonuo how to recognize the colors of silk threads.
Xiao Nuonuo can already recognize many colors such as red and green.
Yun Xiangye hugged little Nuonuo and said, "Nuonuo is very smart."
Little Nuonuo smiled shyly in Yun Xiangye's arms.
The mother and daughter are having a great time.
Yun Xiangye touched Nuonuo's head. Such a peaceful and happy day was quite nice.

In Qingfeng Garden.
Gu Yan entered the bedroom, which was mostly empty. Yun Xiangye had taken away all her belongings.
Gu Yan sat on the edge of the bed and saw a long hair beside the pillow. He clenched the hair tightly in his hands, feeling heartbroken.
Gu Jingyu walked into the bedroom with a lantern, "Brother, I thought Jingru was just kidding. Did sister-in-law and Nuonuo really leave? Are you really going to divorce sister-in-law for that Princess Xiwan?"
Gu Yan said: "It's not me who divorced her."
Gu Jingyu frowned and asked, "Why did sister-in-law take Nuonuo away from home?"
Gu Yan whispered: "She was the one who insisted on divorcing me."
"She wanted to divorce you, and you agreed?" Gu Jingyu said, "Sister-in-law is a good person to talk to. If she wants to divorce, how can you let her divorce go according to her wishes if you don't coax her?
Gu Yan whispered, "I have thought of countless ways. She insisted on leaving, and was even willing to give up Nuonuo. I have no other choice. If I don't agree to a divorce, it will only cause resentment between us."
Gu Jingyu asked anxiously, "You and your sister-in-law have divorced, what about Nuonuo?"
Gu Yan said: "Nuonuo still has a father and mother who love her, but her father and mother are no longer together. She has not had a peaceful day since she came back to Chang'an. Even if she is not tired, I am tired too. It is better for them to divorce so that both of them can live in peace."
Gu Jingyu was so anxious about what Gu Yan said that she felt depressed. "Brother! Is that human language? Sister-in-law carried you for ten months and gave birth to Nuonuo. If her life was easy, how could she be willing to divorce? How can you say that divorce is fine?"
Gu Yan frowned and said, "Why are you and mother always so disloyal? Yun Xiangye insisted on leaving, and I can't tie her legs and feet to prevent her from leaving. Whoever leaves can't live well."
Gu Jingyu stamped her feet in anger and said, "No wonder my sister-in-law wants to divorce."
After Gu Jingyu finished speaking, she turned and went to the main courtyard of the princess's mansion.
At dusk, Xie Zhixuan and Gu Ling were watering the herbs in the courtyard.
Gu Jingyu pouted and said, "Dad, Mom, and sister-in-law are all divorced, how can you still have the leisure to take care of these flowers and plants and water them?"
Gu Ling said: "Your brother is now 21 years old, and will soon be 22. He is not a young child. His parents have to worry about everything for him."
Xie Zhixuan looked at Gu Jingyu and said, "It can be seen that Xiangye has never been truly relaxed and happy since she came to Chang'an. The identity of the Crown Prince's Consort is a shackle for her. It is better to let her go. After all, Xiangye is not hypocritical. She really wants a divorce. Instead of intervening and forcing Xiangye to stay, it is better to let them separate."
Gu Jingyu frowned and said, "Mother, aren't we bullying my sister-in-law? She has lost her parents. Now that she has left our house, how can she live?"
Xie Zhixuan said, "Your father has sent secret guards to follow Xiangye and protect her and her daughter. Although Xiangye has divorced your brother, she is still your sweet mother. I will help her if she has any difficulties."
Gu Jingyu saw Xie Zhixuan watering the herbs and sighed softly, "Mom, my brother actually said that one can't live without the other. It's really infuriating."
Xie Zhixuan smiled and said, "He's just being stubborn."
Qingfeng Garden was very deserted at night.
Gu Yan was lying on the bed, and all he saw was Yun Xiangye's smiles and frowns, the sweet and gentle calls of "husband" that she would give him every time he returned home during his time in Jiangnan, and the slightly closed eyes she would see when she was emotional...
Gu Yan took a deep breath, sat up, and went to the courtyard to practice sword and boxing, no longer letting his mind wander.
In this world, who can live a miserable life without whom? Yun Xiangye insisted on getting a divorce, so I just made her happy.
If they divorce now, he certainly won't be the one to regret it in the future.

In the embroidery workshop.
After Yun Xiangye woke up early in the morning, she casually washed up and went to the embroidery room. Without Yinliu and the others, Run'er's hair-combing skills were much inferior, but Yun Xiangye didn't care.
In the embroidery room, the embroiderers were whispering to each other. When they saw Yun Xiangye coming, they fell silent and looked at her face cautiously.
Yun Xiangye couldn't help but smile, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
One of the younger embroiderers said, "It's being rumored today that you packed your bags and left the Princess's residence yesterday. You were divorced..."
Yun Xiangye paused, "It's spreading outside?"
Yes, she packed up and left the Princess's Mansion yesterday, and it might not have been unknown to others.
Yun Xiangye hurriedly picked up Nuonuo, who had just woken up, and went to West Street. She had not yet had time to tell her uncle and aunt about this matter. If her uncle and aunt heard it first, they might worry about her.
As soon as Yun Xiangye arrived at the Ye family on West Street, she saw her uncle, aunt, and cousin about to go out.
Ye Yuan saw Yun Xiangye and said, "Xiangye, what happened? Today, Li Fang's family went to the market to buy vegetables and came back to say that you were divorced by the Princess's Mansion. You left the Princess's Mansion yesterday with your luggage."
Aunt Ye said, "Xiang Ye, although your uncle and aunt don't have much ability, they won't watch you being bullied like this."
Yun Xiangye whispered, "Uncle, aunt, don't worry, I was not bullied, nor was I divorced. I wanted to divorce on my own initiative."
Ye Yuan sighed and said, "Xiang Ye, you are being foolish. He is the Prince of Ning. Do you know how powerful the Prince of Ning is? How rich is the Princess?"
Yun Xiangye said: "I know, and that is why I want to divorce."
Aunt Ye said to Ye Yuan: "Don't talk about Xiangye anymore. How can life be so easy for Qi Dafeiou?"
Ye Yuan sighed again, "Xiang Ye, if you find another husband, he will definitely be inferior to Gu Yan in every way. Apart from other things, no one in the Great Sheng Dynasty can compare to Gu Yan in terms of appearance and family background."
Yun Xiangye said: "I don't plan to find another husband. Anyway, I already have Nuonuo, the Yun who inherits our Yun family's bloodline. There is no need to be crazy about getting married."
