The General's Mansion was unusually lively today, the gloom of the past few days gone, and everyone had a smile on their face.
Yuan's father's smile never stopped.
The thought of the fate that befell the Zhou family members made him want to have a few more drinks.
Hmph, who told those people to treat his precious daughter badly?
This isn't the end of it. He'll teach them a lesson they won't have an easy life for the rest of their lives.
Yuan Zhao also drank quite a bit of wine today.
Today, with the destruction of the Yongning Marquis's mansion, she felt that everything that had been weighing on her heart for many years had vanished.
In her past life, she always thought it was her fault, and she kept everything bottled up inside. She had too many things weighing on her heart.
Everything is fine now.
Although Yuan Zhao had a good tolerance for alcohol, he got drunk today.
Needless to say, Yuan's father had already passed out drunk long ago.
The second brother helped Yuan's father back to his courtyard, while Yuan Lin escorted Yuan Zhao back to the courtyard she lived in before she got married.
"Your courtyard has always been kept for you, nothing has changed."
"This is your home forever. Your older brother will never let you suffer again."
Hearing his elder brother's words, Yuan Zhao felt a warmth in his heart:
“I know, brother.”
Suddenly remembering something, she spoke:
"Big brother, haven't you managed to coax your sister-in-law back yet?"
It's been almost a month, and my sister-in-law is still not here today. Yuan Zhao knows that my brother's matter is not going well.
Yuan Lin had a smile on his face, but it vanished instantly upon hearing this.
He had already tried to explain, but she didn't believe him.
Seeing his elder brother's expression, Yuan Zhao knew that things were not so simple.
She wanted to say something, but her mind was foggy, and she couldn't help but say:
"I'll go see my sister-in-law tomorrow."
"No need, you should rest for a few days."
"If she doesn't come back, then so be it."
Yuan Lin said somewhat defiantly.
Yuan Zhao knew perfectly well that her brother was just being stubborn, so she smiled and remained silent.
Feeling that Yuan Zhao had seen through everything, Yuan Lin felt somewhat embarrassed and left only one sentence:
"Go back to sleep. Your brother will handle his own problems."
After saying that, he left in a hurry.
Yuan Zhao couldn't help but laugh when she saw this. Her older brother was always quite mature and composed in front of others, and this was the first time she had seen him like this.
The smile on her face never faded; she was still smiling even after returning to her room.
The smile on her face vanished completely when she heard a familiar, cold voice.
"So happy?"
Rong Ruo?
The smile on Yuan Zhao's face vanished completely, leaving only disbelief and frustration.
At that moment, she finally remembered what she had forgotten that day.
She forgot about Rong Ruo.
Rong Ruo would go to the Yongning Marquis's residence to look for her every night. Today, when she left the Yongning Marquis's residence, she actually forgot about Rong Ruo.
Now, seeing that person sitting in her former boudoir, Yuan Zhao didn't know how to describe her feelings.
She was also much more sober after drinking.
Whether it was the Yongning Marquis's residence or this General's mansion, Rong Ruo could come and go as he pleased, as if he were in an empty place.
The fact that his father and brothers didn't notice anything shows how capable this person is.
Seeing her standing there blankly, Rong Ruo slightly curled the corners of her lips:
"What? You don't recognize me after just one day?"
Yuan Zhao, having regained his senses, quickly said:
"Why has the Grand Eunuch come?"
