Chapter 72 - Bite Back
Ruan Ling'er frowned and opened her mouth to ask something.
But after thinking about it, he swallowed the inquiry that was about to come back and changed his words: "Okay, I'll go now."
Hongxiu looked at Ruan Ling'er worriedly: "Miss, I will accompany you."
"Need not."
Ruan Ling'er shook her head: "You go back and wash, change your clothes, and make a bowl of smoothies. I want to eat it when I go back."
After pausing, he reminded him: "I'm cooking a pot of soup to relieve heat and dry it. When Madam Wu comes back, I'll send it to them."
Whether a store can be managed well depends on the manager.
She was worried about the candidate for this position for a long time. When Madam Su found out, she sent Madam Wu to come.
Madam Wu learned to settle accounts with Madam Su and knew how to control her subordinates. She was indeed a good candidate.
But she was old and had to travel back and forth between Ruan Mansion and shops every day, which she really couldn't bear.
But there was no one else to choose from, so I had to work hard for Madam Wu for a while.
Hongxiu knew his lady's temper and didn't say much, so he could only respond: "Yes, lady."
Ruan Ling'er nodded, waved her hand at them, and turned around and walked towards the main courtyard.
As soon as I entered the yard, I saw Ruan’s mother sitting under the tree in the yard to enjoy the cool air, and there was a basin of ice on the table in front of me.
"Mother." She walked over and blessed her body: "You are looking for me."
Ruan's mother frowned and looked at her.
Thinking of the letters sent by Liu Fangfei, he subconsciously asked: "How can you frame Fangfei for stealing things?!"
Ruan Linger: “…”
She pursed her lips and her eyes became sank.
"What's your attitude! I'll tell you again..."
Ruan's mother scolded her unhappyly. Before she finished speaking, she heard Qingliu's reminder and coughed heavily.
Ruan's mother came to her senses and raised her hand and pinched her eyebrows.
A little tired explanation: "Ling'er, my mother is not going to blame you."
"But she is your cousin after all. If you confront her like this, you may have a bad reputation if it spreads in the future!"
As he said that, another sigh was heard.
Get up and hold Ruan Ling'er's hand.
When he touched his daughter's cold fingers, Ruan's mother felt ache and felt guilty suddenly.
The voice couldn't help but soften: "Good Baoer, my mother doesn't mean to blame you."
"It's just that this world is too unfair to women. Women should be obedient, gentle and obedient, not jealous, not…"
She said a lot, and finally stopped and sighed: "Although Fangfei is wrong, her identity is always your cousin."
"Now she has become the concubine of the fifth prince. If you confront her like this, it will be bad for you!"
Ruan Ling'er didn't speak from beginning to end, and her heart was very choked.
She could hear that this was for her own good.
Can……
But I don't believe her!
She didn't even give her a chance to distinguish.
She lowered her eyes and looked at Ruan's mother's hand, with a bitter self-mockery in her eyes.
According to her temper, she didn't want to explain. After all, it may not be useful if she explains it. She will still not trust her next time.
But if you don't explain, the misunderstanding will only be deeper...
Qingliu stood behind Ruan’s mother, looking at Ruan Linger’s thin body, filled with depressed aura, and her heartache circles were about to turn red.
"I know that my wife feels sorry for the lady and is worried about the lady."
Qing Liu took a deep breath and said deliberately: "Care is confusing, but even so, we should ask the lady what's going on, right?"
"I think there should be a misunderstanding in this matter. Madam, please don't be misled by Miss Cousin."
After saying that, she glanced at Ruan Ling'er in a vague way.
Ruan Ling'er pursed her lips.
One sentence of concern is confusing, and another sentence is misleading.
Qingliu wanted to tell her that Ruan’s mother was not partial to Liu Fangfei.
It’s just that I care too much about her and was misled by Liu Fangfei.
But, what does it matter if it is wrong or not?
If this letter was handed to Ruan’s father, Ruan’s father would not be in a hurry to convict her!
Ruan's mother frowned in surprise: "There is still a misunderstanding?"
Ruan Ling'er's eyebrows and eyes sank again: "..."
Ruan’s mother was not stupid after all. She paused and clenched Ruan Ling’er’s hand again: “Good Baoer, tell your mother, what’s going on?”
"Does my mother believe me?"
Ruan Ling'er laughed at herself, raised her head, and looked at Ruan's mother with her eyes covered in mist.
She reminded Ruan's mother over and over again, believing that she believed in her.
But is it useful?
She took a deep breath and said that the passage was revealed: "Today Liu Fangfei went to the store to buy things, and when checking out, she said that the expensive bracelet was lost."
"Madam Wu asked her to report to the official, but she refused."
"She refused to search for her body in a group. Finally..."
She stared into Ruan's mother's eyes: "The bracelet fell out of Liu Fangfei's own arms."
"If my mother doesn't believe it, she can wait for Madam Wu to come back and ask."
"At that time, there were quite a few noble girls in the store, and my mother could also send someone to inquire."
Hearing a completely different story from the letter, Ruan's mother frowned.
She really wronged Ling'er again...
"Good Baoer, mother is not..."
Before she could finish her rescue, Ruan Ling'er smiled stiffly: "Mother, my daughter is tired and wants to go back and rest first."
After saying that, without waiting for Ruan’s mother to speak, she was lucky and covered her mouth and left quickly.
"Hey..." Ruan's mother reached out to catch Ruan Ling'er, but she only caught nothing.
As she watched her daughter trot away, a trace of guilt suddenly appeared in her eyes.
After a long time, she murmured: "Is Ling'er... sad, angry with me?"
Qingliu sighed silently and stepped forward to hold Ruan’s mother’s arm: “As a mother, she doesn’t trust the lady so much, so the lady will naturally be sad.”
"Mrs. My ears are too soft!"
She persuaded her helplessly again: "I told my wife many times before, I should believe that the lady is not the ignorant one, but the lady can't remember it!"
"Now the relationship between mother and daughter is better, and it's lost because of a letter from Miss Cousin."
This statement was really straightforward and heart-wrenching, but Qingliu did it on purpose.
She has followed Ruan’s mother since she was a child and knows what kind of temper Ruan’s mother is.
If she didn't stab her hard in the heart, she would sooner or later push her daughter out!
If you are not sure, you will be separated from your relationship with the master!
It’s not worth it just for Liu Fangfei!
Ruan Ling'er covered her mouth and trotted back to Jiaxiju.
The news spread in Ruan’s mansion in just a few incense sticks, and Ruan’s mother felt even more sad.
But Ruan Ling'er herself was sitting on the swing and resting at this moment.
This was intentional.
She just wanted to make Ruan's mother blame herself for thinking that she had hurt her heart!
Only Ruan’s mother is really uncomfortable, and she will not be easily instigated by Liu Fangfei next time!
at the same time.
In the study of Shangshu Mansion, Fu Shangshu sat in the main seat with a gloomy expression, gritted his teeth and said, "What's going on!"
The well-educated and well-informed lady who he worked hard to teach was pregnant before he got married!
If this is spread, would he still want this old face?
