The first thing Ren Yaoqi thought of was that the Han family was most likely behind this. No one would want the Ren family and the Lei family to fall out more than the Han family at this time, because with the Lei family as their backing, it would not be easy for the Han family to completely destroy the Ren family.
Ren Yaohua also knew about Xiao Qiao's affairs, but this time she kept her composure and said nothing. She continued to follow Li's request and embroidered her dowry in her boudoir every day.
After a while, one evening, when Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua came out of Li's house after dinner, Ren Yaohua suddenly said to Ren Yaoqi, "I haven't received a letter from Pan'er for a while."
Upon hearing this, Ren Yaoqi stopped and turned to look at Ren Yaohua, just in time to see a pair of worried eyes.
Since Lei Paner began to learn to read, he has frequently written letters to Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua. In the beginning, more than half of each letter would be circles. Encouraged by Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua's replies, Lei Paner practiced calligraphy very seriously. Later, the circles gradually decreased and his handwriting became much neater.
"Third sister, are you worried about Pan'er?" Ren Yaoqi asked softly.
Ren Yaohua frowned and said, "I wonder if he's sick."
Ren Yaoqi smiled and said, "Why don't I write a letter to the girl tomorrow? After all, I'm half her teacher, so it's only natural for me to ask about her calligraphy practice."
Ren Yaohua's brows relaxed a little when she heard this, and she nodded: "That's exactly what I was thinking." Lei Pan'er somehow found out that Ren Yaoqi's handwriting was good, and she pestered her to become her apprentice. Sometimes in her letters, she would playfully call Ren Yaoqi "Sister Yaoqi Mr.", which made people laugh and cry.
However, the next day, before Ren Yaoqi's letter could be delivered to the Lei family, the Ren family lost their patience. Old Madam Ren sent someone to take Ren Yaohua back to Baihe Town.
Ren Yaoqi originally wanted to accompany Ren Yaohua back, but after thinking about it, she decided not to go. She could predict the reason why the Ren family wanted to ask Ren Yaohua to go back, and she could also guess what the two elders of the Ren family would say to Ren Yaohua. She smiled sarcastically. Now it was time for Old Lady Ren to use up the last bit of the affection between grandparents and grandchildren with Ren Yaohua.
Ren Yaohua returned to Baihe Town alone. Although the Ren family was in a crisis, they still made a big show of welcoming Ren Yaohua. After Ren Yaohua arrived at Ronghua Courtyard, Old Ren continued to call her "Mrs. Ren's sweetheart" and took her to visit the ailing Old Master Ren. After that, the two of them had some intimate conversations.
When the atmosphere was most harmonious, Mrs. Ren made a request to Ren Yaohua.
Old Madam Ren's request was simple: "You've seen the situation at home. Your grandfather... Hey! Tomorrow is the birthday banquet for the old lady of the Jin family in Yunyang City. Grandma is taking you to celebrate. The Lei family and the Jin family have some friendship, so the eldest master of the Lei family will definitely meet on such occasions. I'll find a way to get you and Lei Ting to meet."
Ren Yaohua frowned as she listened. She glanced at Old Mrs. Ren, pursed her lips and said, "Grandma, I heard from my father that the Lei family helped our Ren family a lot this time?" Ren Yaohua felt a little unhappy. It was really awkward to hear her elders say that she was secretly meeting with Lei Ting.
