Ren Yaoqi was going out to meet Mrs. Luo.
After leaving Baoping Hutong, Ren Yaoqi told Xia Sheng, the driver, to go to the address Zhu Ruomei had given her. She did have a lot more freedom at her maternal grandparents' house, and although Rong Shi was worried about her, she didn't stop her since Xia Sheng was with her.
In general, Rong was actually very indulgent to her and would grant her every request.
Zhu Ruomei's courtyard is neither far nor near from Baoping Hutong. Although this area is also a crisscross of alleys, it is much more lively and noisy than Baoping Hutong, and everywhere reveals a kind of atmosphere of life from the city.
Xiangqin, the maid who had grown up in the Ren family's manor and manor, was unusually quiet, but her occasional glances out the window betrayed a hint of unease. Meanwhile, the young Pingguo sat beside Ren Yaoqi, expressionless and composed. Ren Yaoqi had recently assigned Pingguo numerous tasks that couldn't be shared with others. While not particularly bright, she had been well-seasoned, and most importantly, obedient.
"Miss, where are we going?" Xiang Qin asked.
Ren Yaoqi saw that she was uneasy, so he comforted her: "Go see someone and then come back."
Xiang Qin seemed to want to ask something, but finally held back and just said, "Miss, it sounds a bit messy here. You are a precious person, so don't scare you."
"This is Yunyang City, don't worry." Ren Yaoqi said with a smile.
Yunyang City is the territory of the Yanbei Palace. There are many Yanbei soldiers stationed here, so although the city is not so dangerous that people cannot lock their doors at night, the public security is generally good.
In her previous life, Ren Yaoqi had followed Mr. Pei out of Kyoto after his exile, and she'd experienced quite a bit along the way. She was no longer the confined woman of the boudoir. While she hadn't endured great hardship, she had experienced the world and wasn't afraid to leave the house.
Finally, the carriage stopped in front of a red-painted Ruyi door. As soon as the carriage stopped, the door creaked open, and Zhu Ruomei appeared at the door.
After Ren Yaoqi got off the carriage, Zhu Ruomei nodded without saying anything. Only after Ren Yaoqi entered the yard did he call out "Fifth Miss".
This was just a courtyard with a small entrance. Ren Yaoqi looked around subconsciously, and with just a turn of her eyes, she saw the young man standing in the courtyard and smiling at her.
Seeing Ren Yaoqi stunned, Zhu Ruomei hurriedly said, "I came back after coming out of Baoping Hutong with you." Out of admiration for this young man, Zhu Ruomei did not ask why Xiao Jingxi came, but he also had a vague feeling that it should be related to the fifth lady of the Ren family.
Ren Yaoqi had already stepped forward: "Mr. Xiao, we meet again."
Ren Yaoqi should be unhappy at the moment, because she is dealing with family affairs, and she has a feeling that the affairs of the Han and Ren families are a bit shameful. But this person appeared here.
However, facing Xiao Jingxi, Ren Yaoqi was so angry that he couldn't turn against him.
After all, she was able to find the Zhai family and Mrs. Luo with the help of this person.
Xiao Jingxi chuckled, glanced at Ren Yaoqi and nodded without saying much.
Ren Yaoqi was unsure of Xiao Jingxi's attitude, and the two of them remained silent. Fortunately, the door to the west wing opened at this moment, and two girls appeared at the door.
One was Zhu Ruoju, the younger sister of Zhu Ruomei who had gone to pay her respects to Ren Yaoqi, and the one peeking behind her was Shui Ai, the little granddaughter of Mrs. Luo.
When Zhu Ruoju saw Ren Yaoqi's face, she immediately ran over with Shui Ai and said happily, "Fifth Miss, you're here?"
Ren Yaoqi smiled and nodded, looking at Shui Ai, who looked a little curious and a little frightened.
"Miss Wu, Miss Wu." Shui Ai was no longer as lively as she was the last time she saw Ren Yaoqi, and was a little nervous.
"Come into the house first." Xiao Jingxi turned and looked at Ren Yaoqi.
Ren Yaoqi sighed lightly and nodded.
"Miss, Mrs. Luo is in the west wing. Do you want to see her now?" Zhu Ruomei said.
Ren Yaoqi nodded. This was the purpose of her coming here today.
So Zhu Ruomei led people into the house.
