The reason why Ren Yaoqi received the invitation from the Yun family even after she was already engaged was because the Queen Mother directly mentioned the names of several ladies. The ladies named must not be absent from this year's Thousand Gold Banquet, and Ren Yaoqi's name was among these ladies.
Ren Yaoqi received the Yun family's invitation several months in advance, and after reading it, he put it aside. At this point, there was no turning back, and he could only fight back.
I heard that the Yun family has been very busy lately, but no matter how busy the Yun family is, it has nothing to do with Ren Yaoqi.
In mid-February, Ren Yaoqi received a letter from Xiao Jinglin, saying that Silly Girl had suddenly fallen ill and asked Ren Yaoqi if she wanted to go with her to see Silly Girl.
Ren Yaoqi hadn't seen Silly Girl for a long time. To be honest, she hadn't seen Silly Girl many times since the beginning, but Silly Girl was very friendly to her. So whether it was between people or between people and animals, fate was important.
Hearing that Silly Girl was sick, Ren Yaoqi was a little worried, so she wrote back to tell Xiao Jinglin that she would go to the hot spring villa with her.
Ren Yaoqi and Xiao Jinglin haven't seen each other for a while. In fact, ever since she and Xiao Jingxi discussed their marriage, she hasn't seen either of them. She only exchanges a few letters with Xiao Jinglin occasionally.
Although the temperature has started to warm up in mid-February, and I heard that the south is already full of birdsong and flowers, it is still a bit cold here in Yanbei, especially in the morning and evening, when the wind is the most biting. So when Ren Yaoqi went out, he still wore a winter windproof white fox fur cloak.
Xiao Jinglin, who was waiting for Ren Yaoqi to get on the carriage, couldn't help but curl his lips when he saw Ren Yaoqi's outfit.
Ren Yaoqi knew what Xiao Jinglin was laughing at. Princess Xiao had gone out today wearing only a thin, lake-green long coat embroidered with a golden phoenix and a peony, without even a cape. Standing next to Ren Yaoqi, the two of them formed a stark contrast.
Ren Yaoqi didn't think it was shameful to be afraid of the cold, so he sat down next to Xiao Jinglin without changing his expression.
"What disease did Silly Girl have?" Ren Yaoqi asked.
"I've lost a lot of hair and have been feeling a bit listless lately. I don't know what's wrong with me."
Ren Yaoqi thought about it. Although she had read a lot of medical books, they were only about saving people, not treating animals. So after hearing what Xiao Jinglin said, she couldn't find the right disease.
The carriage left the city and drove all the way to the hot spring villa.
When getting off the carriage, Ren Yaoqi looked up and saw the familiar figure standing not far away.
Xiao Jingxi stood there with dark clothes and black hair, looking at Ren Yaoqi with a smile on his face. His eyes were gentle and peaceful, but Ren Yaoqi seemed to be burned by his gaze and could not help but look away.
Although Xiao Jinglin didn't mention that Xiao Jingxi was also here, Ren Yaoqi was not surprised to see him.
Xiao Jingxi waited until they all got off the carriage before walking over.
"Where are you now?" Xiao Jinglin looked at Xiao Jingxi and asked.
"In the wing behind the Curiosity Garden."
Xiao Jinglin took the lead and walked towards the Treasure Garden.
When Ren Yaoqi was about to follow Xiao Jinglin, Xiao Jingxi suddenly leaned over, raised his hand and paused slightly on Ren Yaoqi's head, then quickly moved his hand away like a dragonfly touching the water and took a step back.
Ren Yaoqi was startled and couldn't help but glare at Xiao Jingxi.
Xiao Jingxi looked at Ren Yaoqi, smiled, and spread his palm in front of Ren Yaoqi. He said innocently, "It's stained with a piece of catkins."
Ren Yaoqi looked at the palm of his hand, and sure enough, there was a piece of light willow catkins in it. She thought that it was probably blown in from the window when she was in the carriage just now, and just fell on her head.
Xiao Jingxi, who didn't want to walk beside Ren Yaoqi, clenched his hands again. He whispered, "It doesn't look like willow catkins. Can you guess what it is?"
Ren Yaoqi heard a hint of teasing in Xiao Jingxi's pleasant voice. Although he couldn't figure out what Xiao Jingxi was going to do, he knew that it was always right to remain constant in the face of change. So Ren Yaoqi glanced at him and ignored him.
Xiao Jingxi opened his palm, and inside lay a small silk flower that Ren Yaoqi had previously pinned on her temples.
Seeing no one around, Ren Yaoqi quickly reached out to grab her silk flower. However, Xiao Jingxi had already taken a half step back, then clenched his hand, shook it quickly, and when he opened his palm again, there was nothing in it.
Ren Yaoqi was stunned for a moment, looked at Xiao Jingxi who was looking at her with a smile, and was about to say something when Xiao Jingxi's palm opened again. This time, what appeared in his palm was not the small silk flower, but the small pearl flower on Ren Yaoqi's head.
Ren Yaoqi was so angry that her face turned red. At this time, Xiao Jinglin, who was walking in front, stopped and looked back at them, and asked suspiciously: "Why don't you hurry up?"
Ren Yaoqi was angry that Xiao Jingxi had teased her, but she was too embarrassed to tell Xiao Jinglin. She just glared at Xiao Jingxi fiercely, walked around him and caught up with Xiao Jinglin, making up her mind that she would ignore Xiao Jingxi today.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Jinglin glanced at Ren Yaoqi, whose face was a little red, and then turned back to look at Xiao Jingxi who had not caught up.
Ren Yaoqi felt a little embarrassed, shook his head, and said vaguely: "One of the pearl flowers on my head fell off."
Ren Yaohua glanced at Ren Yaoqi's head and frowned, "Aren't the two pink pearl flowers still there?"
Ren Yaoqi touched her bun in surprise, and then she really touched two pearl flowers. She looked up and found that the small silk flower was still on her head.
