Ren Yaohua hesitated for a moment, then told Ren Yaoqi, "The second young master of the Yun family is back, and he saw us today."
This time, Ren Yaoqi frowned.
Ren Yaohua tried to speak in a calm tone, "Uncle Lei is here too. He said... he'll take care of Yunwen if she leaves."
Ren Yaoqi heard something from Ren Yaohua's forced indifference, but to avoid angering her, she pretended not to notice anything. Regarding Yun Wenfang's matter, Ren Yaoqi did not ask any more questions.
Afterwards, Ren Yaoqi sent someone to inquire about the doctor's results. It wasn't that she cared about Ren Yaoying, but she was afraid that Ren Yaohua might accidentally hurt her, and she would have to consider how to deal with her. However, after examining Ren Yaoying's throat, the doctor said that Ren Yaoying only had a minor throat injury and had lost some blood, and that the rest of her condition was not serious.
From that day on, Ren Yaoying became a well-behaved person. For a long time, she would hide whenever she saw Ren Yaohua. Perhaps it was the terrifying sight of Ren Yaohua feeding her leeches that made her suffer from recurring nightmares. She also felt like there was something stuck in her throat, and she kept coughing. Mrs. Li was confused and sent for several doctors, but they couldn't figure out what was wrong. They didn't know why Ren Yaoying kept coughing, so they could only prescribe some lung-clearing and throat-soothing medicine.
Ren Yaohua hadn't expected Ren Yaoying to be so vulnerable, but thinking about what she had done, she felt no sympathy or guilt. She'd already done it, and she couldn't bring herself to pretend she hadn't meant it. Such hypocrisy was unacceptable. And if Ren Yaoying dared to cross her again, she would just keep her promise and feed her leeches, spiders, and cockroaches until she was full.
For the next two months, Ren Yaoqi didn't see Yun Wenfang. After the Double Ninth Festival, Yanbei grew colder day by day. Although the first snow of the year came a little late, the cold north wind was unwavering, making everyone in Yunyang City feel lazy.
Recently, even when Ren Yaoqi went out, she only followed Li around Baoping Hutong, rarely appearing outside. It wasn't that she was deliberately avoiding Yun Wenfang, but rather that Ren Yaohua's wedding was set for August of the following year, and Li was busy preparing Ren Yaohua's dowry. Ren Yaohua was also confined at home by Li to embroider her wedding dress and dowry. Ren Yaoqi didn't like being busy, so she naturally enjoyed staying at home with her mother and sister.
Since they parted on the Double Ninth Festival, Ren Yaoqi and Xiao Jingxi and Xiao Jinglin have not met each other, but they have been exchanging letters with Xiao Jinglin. It may be a habit that Xiao Jinglin developed when he was in Jiajing Pass. The two of them are used to communicating with each other every few days.
However, once, after receiving a letter from Xiao Jinglin, Ren Yaoqi opened it and felt something was amiss. She carefully read the letter and confirmed that, although the handwriting on the letter was very similar to Xiao Jinglin's, it was not Xiao Jinglin's handwriting. Although Ren Yaoqi was not a master calligrapher, she was extremely talented in calligraphy and painting and had put in a lot of hard work, so recognizing handwriting was no problem for her.
