The Fourth Prince was the first to discover Xiao Yunchen standing outside the cotton field.
He turned around, smiled at Xiao Yunchen, and said loudly, "Master Xiao, would you like to experience the joy of farming?"
Li Sisi followed his gaze and saw Xiao Yunchen, who was wearing a moon-white brocade robe and had a cold brow full of gloom and depression.
Li Sisi curled her lips and turned her gaze back to the Fourth Prince. She said loudly, "Fourth Prince, look at him, he's dressed like an official. He's obviously not suitable for this kind of thing."
Her bright eyebrows raised slightly: "You said that everything I picked belongs to me!"
"Of course," the Fourth Prince said with a smile, "I'll send some to your house in a couple of days."
"Really?" Li Sisi smiled and gave the Fourth Prince a thumbs-up, praising him, "Your Highness is so loyal!"
Two people walked out of the cotton field.
The Fourth Prince stopped in front of the stern-looking man and raised his eyebrows in surprise. The usually good-tempered Master Ruyu became jealous. This is what he looked like!
interesting.
His eyes twinkled, and he chuckled as he extended an invitation: "Since Sir Xiao is here, it's a good opportunity for you to stay for lunch."
Xiao Yunchen said coldly and politely, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness the Fourth Prince. It's not necessary. My wife and I have family matters to attend to."
Li Sisi, who was packing cotton, heard what he said, looked up and asked in confusion, "What's the matter?"
Xiao Yunchen squatted down and helped her lower her sleeves, covering her white and tender arms that had just been exposed. His voice was deep and cold: "There is a Dharma Assembly at Lingyin Temple today. My sister-in-law and brother have decided to go to the temple to pray for blessings this afternoon. I want to ask if you want to go with them."
"Yes, of course I will." Li Sisi pushed his hand away, lowered her sleeves, and quickly stood up, carrying the sack. "I need to go back and change clothes first. Have Nian Nian and the others left yet?"
Xiao Yunchen naturally took the sack from her hand and replied, "They are going to have a vegetarian meal at Lingyin Temple and have already set off."
Li Sisi became anxious when she heard this. She hurriedly said a few words of goodbye to the Fourth Prince and hurried back.
Xiao Yunchen, with a cold face, carried a sack of cotton and followed closely behind Li Sisi. His usually gentle face was now stained with anger: "My wife, as a decent woman, you should not expose your skin in front of a man outside, let alone..."
He wanted to say that she shouldn't smile so brightly at other men, but since this was not considered impolite, he didn't say it out loud.
Li Sisi didn't care what he said right now. She just nodded repeatedly and said, "Yeah, I got it."
On the other side, Li Nian was on his way to Lingyin Temple.
The carriage was covered with soft deerskin blankets. Xiao Yunyu helped Li Nian sit in the upper seat, which was spacious and stable, so the carriage would not be too bumpy when running.
"Cough cough cough" Li Nian coughed up blood again.
Xiao Yunyu quickly took out a handkerchief to help her catch it.
He tried hard to control his trembling voice and spoke words of comfort one by one.
"I heard there's a miracle doctor in Yuquan Town in the south. He easily resolved the plague that broke out in Yuquan some time ago."
Xiao Yunyu lowered his head to hide the uncontrollable emotions on his face.
He threw the blood-stained handkerchief aside, took out a brand new handkerchief from his body and put it in Li Nian's hand, then continued speaking while taking the tea on the small table with trembling hands.
"I've sent someone to invite him here, my lady, just wait a little longer, there will definitely be a way. Lingyin Temple is the most effective and will protect you. You will be fine..."
Li Nian took the teacup from his hand, lowered her eyes and took a sip without saying anything.
Xiao Yunyu, I'm sorry, from now on, there will be no more Yun Qiuwu in the world, only Li Nian.
She moved her lips and wanted to say, Xiao Yunyu, please forget me as soon as possible. You still have a long way to go, so don’t be sad for me.
But when the words came to her lips, she burst into tears first: "Husband, I'm sorry."
A tear fell on the back of Xiao Yunyu's hand, warm yet burning. He finally couldn't hold back his tears and knelt in front of her, hugging her legs with a suppressed feeling of reluctance and helplessness.
It was obvious that when he was punished indiscriminately by his father again and again, even when his skin was torn and flesh was broken, he never shed a tear.
But now, Xiao Yunyu's tears seemed to never stop flowing.
Li Nian was a little at a loss, as she had never experienced many strong emotions in her previous world.
Before she was eight years old, her parents often fought. The phrase she heard her mother say most often was "If it weren't for the child..." Her father always looked at her with disgust and said, "If you didn't have the child, who would want you!"
At that time, she really hated her parents and always compared them with her classmates' parents. But later, the two people she hated didn't want her anymore.
Later, she lived in an orphanage. She was too boring and didn't fit in, so the other children isolated her and teased her.
It was not until the evening of her third year in junior high school that she was called to the rooftop of the teaching building by the rich girls who had always bullied her.
In fact, she agreed on purpose that day. The girl who led the group had a father who was the boss of a big company and a mother who was a lawyer. The girl was the apple of her parents' eyes and they doted on her very much.
There is also her most trusted lackey, who comes from a wealthy family and is loved very much by her parents.
Unlike her, even if she died, it would be no different from a homeless person dying on the street, no one would care.
So, at that time, she felt that it was worth it to sacrifice her worthless life in exchange for the breakup of two happy families.
She returned to them tenfold and a hundredfold the pain they inflicted on her!
Just as she was deliberately approaching the edge of the floor, and just as she was about to pull the two girls who bullied her to death together, Sisi appeared.
He beat those people away and pulled her back from the brink of death.
Sisi was like a ray of light breaking into her extremely dark world.
From then on, this light never left her and continued to shine on her for the rest of her life.
She hid all the darkness and tried to live like a flower that needed sunshine.
People should not be greedy. If the light is too strong, the flowers will not be able to bear it.
Li Nian's slender pale fingers tightly grasped the teacup, and she secretly warned herself not to be greedy, as having Sisi was enough for her.
Her heart is very small. It already holds Sisi, and in the future she will have to accommodate her own child. It would be too crowded if there was one more person.
She has both friendship and family, and she is already very satisfied.
With Xiao Yunyu's status, there will be many better women to replace her in the future, and the sadness is only temporary.
She is different. If she falls in love, she can't take it back.
Xiao Yunyu, your love is indeed warm and sincere, just like the scorching sun, but I already have a beam of light and don’t need more.
