Chapter 206 Risking Your Responsibility
Du Ruo returned to Xiaoheyuan.
In the evening, Cheng Yunshuo returned home and went to Lu Lingyun's courtyard first.
"Aunt Du is back." Lu Lingyun said.
When Cheng Yunshuo learned that Du Ruo had returned, he did not react much and responded calmly.
To be honest, he didn't care much when Du Ruo went back to her parents' home.
He just thought Du Ruo wanted to go back.
He didn't even think that Du Ruo was angry with him, and was driven away by him.
He didn't take the snuff bottle incident seriously at all.
In his opinion, Du Ruo was wrong in the first place, and she was angry with him, which meant she was crazy.
She had stayed at her parents' home for a few days to relax, and in his opinion, there was no problem at all.
Si didn't care.
Lu Lingjun looked at Cheng Yunshuo's attitude and tone, and silently sighed for Du Ruo in her heart.
In fact, she felt that Du Ruo was much better than Xing Dairong.
She could feel that Du Ruo's love for Cheng Yunshuo was pure. Sometimes she would put herself in his shoes and think for him, not putting him in a difficult position. She was also willing to make changes and would resolve any awkward situations by herself.
For example, after she found out there was something wrong with the snuff bottle, she took the initiative to run back and explain it, for she was afraid that Cheng Yunshuo would be implicated.
For example, now, after being angry for a while, I calmed down on my own.
She is more sensible than Xing Dairong.
But unfortunately, she is not Xing Dairong.
Cheng Yunshuo treated her differently from others, but there was not much difference.
Cheng Yunshuo didn't have that kind of love for her.
After Cheng Yunshuo finished his meal in her courtyard, he chatted about things in the palace and then went back to rest.
Just a few steps out of Lu Lingyun's yard, I heard a voice that was a combination of greed, anger, hatred, love, evil and desire.
"Master."
When Cheng Yunshuo turned around, he saw a figure standing in front of the Xiaohe Courtyard not far away.
Du Ruo stood there prettyly, under the dim light, her pair of sparkling eyes stared straight at Cheng Yunshuo.
That look, full of yearning, full of tenderness, full of love, hate, longing, resentment, and unbearable throbbing, is like a glance that lasts a lifetime.
Cheng Yunshuo: "......"
Under Du Ruo's emotional gaze, his eyes were wrong, "You're back."
"What else?" Du Ruo snorted, "If you don't pick me up, I will come back by myself."
Cheng Yunshuo: "...I'm busy lately."
"I knew it was because you were busy that you didn't come to pick me up!" Du Ruo's eyes lit up instantly, hiding all the resentment and hatred, leaving only joy. She trotted to Cheng Yunshuo and said coquettishly, "Master, you don't know how much I missed you at home."
She had already accepted this reply and felt that Cheng Yunshuo ignored her because he was busy.
There is no other reason at all.
This person is most afraid of brainwashing himself. He only listens to what he wants to hear, and he is convinced as soon as he hears it.
Cheng Yunshuo: “….”
He looked at Du Ruo, whose face was full of tenderness, and couldn't help but ask softly, "How have you been at your aunt's house these days?"
This question hit the mark right in Du Ruo's mind.
She knew that her master loved her and had her in his heart, and would ask her how she was doing when they met.
Her heart and eyes were filled with love, she lowered her eyebrows slightly and said coquettishly, "Not very good."
"What's wrong? Your aunt and her friends treat you badly?"
"Because I didn't see my master." Du Ruo raised his head and looked at Cheng Yunshuo with fiery eyes.
Cheng Yunshuo: ".......It's getting late, let's go back to the house and talk."
"Yeah." Du Ruo responded softly and happily.
The next day, Du Ruo started wandering in the backyard again.
Qiu Ling and Ling Long were together, embroidering clothes under a pavilion, and they could see the energetic Du Ruo from a distance.
"She's back?" Qiu Ling glanced at Du Ruo, who was walking around with her maid, smiling happily.
"I'm back. I came back last night." Linglong said.
Linglong still lives in Yaoguang Pavilion, and she serves Cheng Yunshuo every night. Yesterday, Cheng Yunshuo did not come back, so she was the first to know that Du Ruo had returned home.
"The prince went to pick her up?"
"No, she came back on her own."
"Strange," Qiu Ling couldn't help but sigh, "I thought she was just in a bad mood for a long time and needed someone to coax her down!"
At this moment, a crisp sound rang out.
"You two are here."
Du Ruo's voice echoed on the side of the scenic lake.
She saw Qiu Ling and Ling Long.
Hearing her voice, Qiu Ling and Ling Long both lowered their heads, not listening to what she said at all, and concentrated on embroidering the clothes in their hands.
"Okay, stop pretending you didn't see me." Du Ruo glanced at them and walked up to them.
Qiu Ling raised her head when she heard the voice. "Oh, Aunt Du, we have been staying up late to embroider clothes these days. Our eyes are tired from embroidering. I really haven't seen you."
"Yes." Linglong didn't even raise her head, but lowered her head to fiddle with her needle and thread.
Seeing their attitude, Du Ruo no longer argued with them head-on like before to see who was better.
She looked at the flowers and birds they were embroidering and asked, "Can I embroider with you?"
After she said this, Qiu Ling and Ling Long both raised their heads and looked at her in shock.
"I haven't learned these well before. Now I want to embroider something. Can you teach me?" Du Ruo said.
She had been without a mother since she was young. When her aunt wanted to teach her, she ran out and couldn't sit still. Later, when Lu Lingyun took her to live with her and wanted to teach her, she refused.
Similarly, because of this reason, she was embarrassed to go to Lu Lingyun's yard and ask her to teach her.
Seeing Qiu Ling and Ling Long were both embroidering, she took the initiative to ask them to learn.
"You want to learn?"
"Well, I want to make some clothes for the prince." Du Ruo said frankly.
Qiu Ling and Ling Long looked at each other.
"Sit down and we'll teach you."
After all, they didn't have that much to fight for. Qiu Ling had long given up on Cheng Yunshuo and wanted to live a very happy life in the future. Linglong wanted some status in this mansion, but she didn't love Cheng Yunshuo.
Therefore, as long as Du Ruo doesn't provoke her or bully her, she won't be that hostile towards him.
Du Ruo just wanted to learn embroidery, she was not that stingy.
Du Ruo got permission and happily sat with the two of them. Qiu Ling gave her a piece of material and taught her how to make a simple purse first.
The summer breeze blows in gusts, the lotus leaves sway, the summer cicadas chirp restlessly, and the backyard is peaceful and quiet.
Lu Lingyun took a nap with her children in her own yard. After waking up, she listened to the servants' reports on whether there was anything new happening in the mansion.
When she heard that Du Ruo was sitting in the backyard with Qiu Ling Linglong learning embroidery, she was slightly startled, smiled faintly, and did not ask any more questions.
At this time, Shuanghong brought a letter.
"Madam, there is a new package from Jiangnan."
"Who sent it?"
"Miss Wang."
Wang Qiluo? !
Lu Lingyun immediately perked up and opened it to take a look.
