Ji Tinglan walked to Su Li's side. Although his face showed no joy or anger, his eyes looked at Zhao Xingwen coldly.
Zhao Xingwen was surprised for a moment, then his face became even uglier. He pursed his lips tightly and said nothing.
Ji Tinglan had no intention of letting him off easily, and repeated to him exactly what he had just said to Su Li: "This prince remembers that according to the rules of the court, subordinates should bow their heads and pay their respects when meeting their superiors. How is it that, as an official appointed by the court, Lord Zhao doesn't even understand such a basic rule?"
Zhao Xingwen clenched his fists, his heart filled with hatred for Ji Tinglan. After a while, he forced a smile and bowed, "Your humble servant, I greet Master Ji."
Zhang Ruying was stunned for a while.
This was the first time she met Ji Tinglan. In the past, she only knew that Princess Rongfu liked him and that he must be handsome. Now that she saw him with her own eyes, she knew what it meant to be stunningly handsome and understood why Princess Rongfu would do anything to get him.
With such appearance and current status, how can Zhao Xingwen compare to her?
In an instant, a strong feeling of jealousy surged in my heart.
Looking at Su Li again, she felt that she was even more hideous, and she clenched her fists tightly.
Why? She is the noble lady from the capital, but now she is not as good as a country woman and is suppressed by her in everything?
Why?
Suddenly, she felt a discomfort in her stomach. Zhang Ruying frowned and said worriedly, "Husband, I feel a little uncomfortable. Let's go back."
Just when he was feeling embarrassed, he suddenly heard Zhang Ruying's words, which just solved his embarrassing situation. Zhao Xingwen was secretly happy and quickly said nervously: "Ying'er, are you okay? Let's go back home and let the doctor check you..."
After saying this, he helped Zhang Ruying away in a hurry.
There was no reason for Su Li to stop her. After all, the unborn child was innocent, and they were in a public place. If something happened to Zhang Ruying, their Duke's Mansion would inevitably be the subject of gossip.
Anyway, she had let out her anger, and she had no intention of continuing to pester her. It was just that Zhang Ruying and her husband were just like Liu Furong and Pei Xiuli before, constantly trying to make trouble for her, which was really annoying. She had to find a way to deal with them.
When the people around saw that everyone had left, they knew that there was no more fun to watch, so those who wanted to buy things did so, and those who wanted to pay did so and left.
"Ali?"
Ji Tinglan's voice rang in his ears: "How are you? They just..."
Su Li smiled and said, "I'm fine. But why are you here?"
"I just got off work and was thinking of buying some cakes for you and Zhao'er. I didn't expect you to be here too."
"That's a coincidence indeed. I was also planning to buy cakes for Grandma and Zhao'er and his sister."
Ji Tinglan was not frivolous: "You only bought it for Grandma and Zhao'er and his sister. Didn't you prepare any for me?"
Su Li was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Of course, I'll buy it for you now, okay?"
"Of course, thank you, ma'am."
As the couple talked, they went in together to choose some snacks.
Xiao Wu and the others covered their mouths and laughed secretly. It was so nice that the relationship between the Madam and the Prince always stayed like this. They felt good just seeing this, hehe!
There are still two days before returning to Guangning.
Su Li asked Ji Zhao and his sister, and neither of them returned to Guangning.
Ji Zhao needs to study, and the trip back and forth will take up a lot of time, so it is really not advisable for him to go back.
Chu'er wants to study medicine and also has to take care of his studies, so he can't delay either.
So for the next two days, Su Li accompanied the brother and sister every day.
Soon it was time to set off back to Guangning.
Su Li did not let the brother and sister send them off. Early in the morning, he asked someone to send Ji Zhao back to the academy, and also sent Chu'er back to Gu Mansion.
The brother and sister did not feel reluctant to part. After all, Ji Zhao was studying in the capital, and Huitian Divine Doctor had planned to live in the capital for a few years. As long as Su Li returned to the capital, they would be able to see her anytime.
After packing up, Su Li and his wife got on a carriage and left the city, heading towards Guangning.
