Chapter 38 Someone once called him that
Yuwen Ye said, "No need."
"..."
Shang Ruyi was stunned for a moment.
Actually, she had already noticed Yuwen Ye's expression when she uttered the word "Second Brother." Just now, he asked about it again, which clearly showed that he cared a lot about this form of address and thought that he would definitely ask her to change it.
Now, you're saying it's unnecessary...?
Shang Ruyi wanted to ask him if it was because someone had called him that before.
But just as she hesitated to speak, Yuwen Ye got up, walked to the bed on the other side of the room, lay down, and closed his eyes.
Clearly, he didn't intend to say anything more to her.
Shang Ruyi looked down at the red blister on her little fingertip. She still didn't feel anything, but at this moment, it felt like a warm, scalding sensation was flowing into her heart.
She remained silent, then turned and got into bed.
That night, Shang Ruyi still slept very restlessly. Her chaotic dreams made her feel like she was in a prehistoric world. However, when she heard a very light footstep, she immediately opened her eyes.
Yesterday morning, Yuwen Ye's deliberate attempts to get close to her almost made her "look ridiculous," so all day long, she felt anxious, determined not to let him see her in such a disheveled and helpless state.
But when I opened my eyes, the person I expected was not there.
Shang Ruyi was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly turned her head to look, only to find the bed empty.
What's going on?
Just as she was wondering what was going on, there was a very soft knock on the door: "Young Madam? Young Madam?"
Shang Ruyi calmed down and immediately responded. Tu She'er and Wo Xue then pushed open the door and came in, one holding a basin of water and the other holding a towel, to help her get up, wash, and make the bed.
After Shang Ruyi finished washing up, she asked, "Where is the young master?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yuwen Ye walked in from outside. He was wearing a thin shirt with a belt that was tightly cinched at the waist, outlining his lithe and agile figure. He was carrying a sword in his hand, and his forehead and neck were covered in sweat, probably from practicing for a while. He exuded a masculine aura.
As he wiped his sweat, he saw that Shang Ruyi had already gotten up, so he said, "You're up."
"Um,"
Shang Ruyi felt a little uncomfortable and stopped calling him "Second Brother," instead asking, "You, up so early?"
"Practicing swordsmanship. I usually have to go to the military base for training, but I can't go these past two days, so I'm practicing in the courtyard."
"oh."
Shang Ruyi knew she had "dragged him into this" and didn't intend to continue the topic. After helping the two of them wash up, Wo Xue brought breakfast from the kitchen, and the two ate a simple meal.
Yuwen Ye put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth, and then looked up at her: "Where do you want to go today?"
Shang Ruyi was taken aback: "Are you going out again today?"
Yuwen Ye said, "If you don't want to go out, then stay home for a day. It's a good opportunity to learn how to manage a household from Aunt Hui."
"..."
Shang Ruyi thought for a moment and said, "Let's talk about this in a couple of days. I just married into the family and I'm not familiar with the affairs of the household yet."
Yuwen Ye glanced at her and asked, "Where do you want to go?"
Shang Ruyi thought for a moment, then suddenly said, "Could you take me to see the army?"
Yuwen Ye frowned: "You're going to the army?"
"May I?"
Yuwen Ye looked at her for a while, then suddenly said, "You can't ride in a carriage."
Shang Ruyi said, "I can ride a horse."
"..."
He recalled the day she charged out of the bandits' encirclement on horseback. After a moment of silence, he said, "Sit for a while and digest your food before we go."
Shang Ruyi immediately smiled and said, "Okay!"
