Gao Ying just smiled faintly, and then said to the woman who was busy in the room: "Sister Lin, I have a customer arriving. The price of the batch of embroidery thread has been negotiated. I will come over to sign the contract later."
When Lin Ruoxi turned around, she didn't recognize Princess Changning. She just saw that she had an extraordinary bearing, and she was not an ordinary person at first glance.
However, with Gao Ying's previous status, it was normal for him to meet any kind of young lady, so he didn't take it seriously. He smiled and nodded and said, "It's okay. You can catch up with your friends and I'll take care of signing the contract."
alright."
Princess Changning seemed to have entered a new world, curiously looking at everything in the embroidery workshop, which looked very novel.
Gao Ying also casually introduced her a few words.
Chang Ning was even more surprised when he heard that this embroidery workshop was run by a mother and daughter, "Women among the people are more free-spirited than people like us."
While talking, they arrived at Gao Ying's house.
As soon as Changning looked at her, he discovered that she was very different.
Naturally, the taste is still excellent, but the exquisite feeling before is gone, and some of it is more life-like.
"When you enter this room, you feel like you want to stay there forever."
Gao Ying made tea for her with her own hands. Hearing this, he smiled and said, "Then I will take it as a compliment from the princess."
Chang Ning looked around and was still curious: "What's going on between you and Mr. Chen? I don't know anything in the palace. I'm just deaf. I only know about your family's affairs. After that, everyone became estranged."
Thanks to you, I also heard that Mr. Chen was a little affected.
But at that time, the prince was really too sensitive, and I was powerless. You know my situation in the palace."
"It's great that the princess has this kind of heart," Gao Ying said quickly, "It is a common thing in this world for trees to fall and hozens to scatter. I have become accustomed to it and accepted it. As for Chen Runyu and I...
"
Mentioning this person, Gao Ying suddenly felt as if he was from another world.
The person whom I loved so vividly and who was in my heart day and night seems to have suddenly become blurred.
She was silent for a while before speaking again, and Princess Changning waited quietly aside without any urging.
This made her feel grateful and she could talk about everything calmly.
There is no personal emotion, just a calm narration of everything between two people.
At the end, Gao Ying said with a smile: "My parents always said in the past that we were well matched. I thought this was because they were pedantic and snobbish. Only now do I realize that this is the experience gained by our predecessors over the years."
Chang Ning couldn't help but have a look of confusion on his face, "But back then... you liked him so much. I thought that if you finally married him, you would have fulfilled your biggest wish in your life, and you would definitely be very happy."
Gao Ying smiled helplessly: "In fact, for a long time, I had the same idea as the princess, thinking that I would be very happy.
But later I realized that happiness is really not that easy. Sometimes, you may stick to the wrong direction. The more you stick to it, the further away you will be from the so-called happiness you seek."
After all, the two of them had known each other since childhood. Chang Ning couldn't help but hold her hand and sighed softly, "Then now..."
"Princess, don't you think I'm fine now?"
Changning was stunned and looked at her doubtfully.
"Now I don't have to care about my status, reputation, interests, or who I will marry in the future, or what kind of wife I can become, let alone all the things I may face after getting married.
I feel... I am the real me now. You see, the food I eat, the clothes I wear, and everything here are all bought by me and earned with my own hands.
The most important thing is that I really like what I am doing and the work I am doing, and I have just discovered that I am actually talented in embroidery.
Sometimes a larger piece of my work can even be sold for hundreds of taels of silver. I have never been so happy even when my mother gave me a shop."
Chang Ning didn't quite understand, but looking at the twinkling lights in her eyes, she felt that she felt it.
But she still couldn't understand, "So, have you really let go of Mr. Chen? You...after all, we were once husband and wife, and I have really seen you care so much about him."
"Princess, there is no one in this world that I can't really let go of, just like my parents. If it's true, is there anyone in this world who loves me more and is more important to me than my parents?
I don’t have children, so I don’t know what kind of bond I have with children, but now that my parents have returned to their hometown, I find that I often don’t even think about them.
I can live without my mother, so what else can I live without? Therefore, the most important person should always be myself.
When you are happy and feel that you are living at ease, you are truly at ease and satisfied. If you put the focus of your life on another person, you have lost yourself."
Chang Ning looked at her and was touched by these words. He didn't know what he was thinking of and was speechless for a long time.
Does she have an ego?
Gao Ying saw that her expression was different, and then he remembered what was on her mind.
I couldn't help but regret it for a moment.
For people like them, so-called freedom is such a rare thing.
How could it be possible without a major blow?
Just like her, if it weren't for the changes in her family, how could she be living like this now.
Princess Changning is a little different from her. She is a princess of the royal family. How can she take off these shackles?
"Princess, do you plan to wait like this forever?"
"He's not married yet!" Chang Ning turned to her, his eyes suddenly red, "If he is married, I won't have anything to say, so I should give up.
But he didn't. He received my letter and told me through Ye Rongshi's mouth. I felt that, at least, she probably had intentions, right? "
"If you have the intention, why don't you mention it?" Gao Ying asked immediately, "Your identity is here. You can't even fight for this kind of thing by yourself. With the relationship between the Wen family and the East Palace now, it's not difficult to say this.
ah!"
This sentence touched the sore point of Princess Changning. Her tears fell down, and finally she couldn't control her emotions and cried, "I don't know, I don't know why he didn't respond to me at all, the Wen family
I often go to the palace, but no one has ever come to see me."
After her relationship with Chen Liu, Gao Ying was not optimistic about her relationship with the general named Wen.
"Princess, you can't afford to wait. I think it's better to give up!"
