Splendid Abandoned Wife

Chapter 147
Ru Xia was sitting in the hall with a very complicated mood.Before coming, she also thought about whether the sisters who had worked together with her would be envious of her free visit to Meizhuang. If she really asked to return to the eldest girl as her parents advocated, Isn’t it very inconsistent and shameless?
But what she didn't expect was that there was no envious look from the concierge to the Plum Blossom Courtyard. What made her even more depressed was that the concierge, Ageng Bo, who had watched her grow up, stopped her with a suspicious look on his face. Outside the door, it was said that someone could only open the door after asking the people around the eldest girl.

After entering the door, the maidservant who came all the way to meet her looked enthusiastic and surprised, but what she said made her very hurt: "Sister Ruxia, why have you turned dark? Your complexion is not good either." "Ruxia." Xia, didn't something happen to your family?" "You just ran back to ask the eldest girl for help, right?" "Tsk, tsk, you went out so fresh and fresh, at least you are a little jade girl, why are you so haggard?"...

She felt uncomfortable, but she could only smile and quietly retract her roughened hands into her sleeves.She came here specially dressed up today. Unfortunately, most of her jewelry and better clothes were pawned by her father to protect her younger brother's high education and other expenses in school.She finally picked out a pink dress. The material was not bad and it was [-]% new. However, the pink color that used to make her look more pink now made her look a lot darker.She had a magnolia silver hairpin on her head, but when she saw the golden collar button on Magpie's collar inlaid with several grains of pearls, she unconsciously tightened her fists. Although the collar button was not big, it was It is really made of gold and pearls, and it is indescribably exquisite and unique.Magpie turns out to be just a third-class maid who works behind her, right?

After finally entering the lobby of Guanmei Courtyard and avoiding the sympathetic or questioning looks, Ruxia felt seriously shaken in her heart. She secretly thought that a good horse will never turn back and be laughed at by those people. She still cooperated with Ruqiu. good.Ruqiu promised that after the shop opened, the Qiu family would pay for the shop and take [-]% of the money, and their family would contribute, and Rudong would provide the recipe, and each would take [-]%.When the time comes, his parents and eldest brother will be able to work as stewards in the shop and earn monthly money, and they will also receive bonuses every year. There will be no problem in supporting the younger brother's education, and the family's life will be better.Her mother's family has confidence, her own conditions are good, and she has connections with the Qingyuan Marquis Mansion, so she still worries about not being able to find a good marriage?

Although her father, Niu San, was not optimistic about Qingyuan Houfu and Ruqiu, he always said that the eldest girl would not suffer as Prince Jing and the prefect were protecting her. He also said that if he had known that the general's treason charge could not be convicted, there would still be a chance for Ji Jing. The prince and the generals support the Yin family. He will definitely not leave Meizhuang at that time.But now that things have changed and they have left, how can they come back in despair and be ridiculed?No, in order for Niu Jiabao to be named a gold medalist in the future, her parents and brothers are not planning to come back as slaves. They just want to sacrifice her in the hope that she will be reused as a girl again. It is best to find a job for her eldest brother in Diandianxin. Errand, the kind of person who is hired but does not sell oneself.

Ruxia took a deep breath and secretly made a decision. She had already given up all her savings and private house for that family and her younger brother, and she could no longer make such a big sacrifice.Moreover, it wouldn’t be nice to have a slave sister when my little brother goes to high school one day, right?
Just when Ru Xia was making up her mind, she asked Ru Dong to talk to her after seeing the eldest girl for a few words, and then acted according to Ru Qiu's plan, she heard the magpie say "girl" and quickly stood up, and sure enough she saw a girl all over her body. The lotus-colored Zhiruo walked in.What surprised her was that Rudong, who was following Zhiruo, was white, tender and pink, and the sun was shining brightly. She looked even more beautiful than before. How could she look like Ruqiu said, "Life must be difficult these days"?what happened?Is there something wrong with Ruqiu's plan?So will she continue?

Ruxia, who had just made up her mind, was confused again and almost forgot to salute Zhiruo.

Zhiruo sat down gracefully, took a sip of the orange juice brought by the magpie, and then said leisurely: "Why are you here today? What's the matter?" The obvious alienation in his eyes and tone made Ning confused. Ruxia was even more panicked. The words she had prepared suddenly stopped, and her mind, which was always flexible and eloquent, went blank at that moment.

Fortunately, she was not absent-minded for too long, and quickly bowed and said: "My parents asked me to come over to see the girl. I have been away for more than half a year, and our whole family misses the girl very much." I don't know whether she was too nervous or lost her confidence, but her voice sounded It gives people a hollow and pale feeling.

"Oh?" Zhiruo smiled faintly, "You guys are interested, I'm fine." He had no intention of saying anything more, and he didn't care about the situation of Ruxia's family. Ruxia didn't know how to continue to find topics. , why does she feel so unwelcome?Although the parents did have the idea of ​​redeeming themselves as a family, their family has never done anything to feel sorry for the girl. She has been serving the girl since she was a child. The relationship between master and servant has always been very good. Why did they become so cold all of a sudden? Already?It’s really a good idea to leave the tea behind!It seems that the girl has really changed. It is not that her temperament suddenly changed due to family changes and divorce as her father said, but she has completely changed and has become so strange.However, didn't Rudong and Ruchun feel the change in the girl?Don’t they feel chilled and aggrieved?

Ruxia was thinking this in her heart, and she couldn't help but ask in a daze: "Ruchun, Rudong, how are you doing too?"

Ruchun smiled cheerfully: "I'm fine, thank you for your concern!"

Rudong pouted and said, "We've never had a hard time around girls, right?" The hairpin on Ruxia's head was from many years ago. Didn't she dislike it a long time ago?Now he wears it inside out again?I don’t know who is bad.Humph, if she could, she really wanted to shout at Ruxia: "You are not good! Your whole family is not good!" The field they had just bought was gone again. It was said that the family's hard-earned savings were all gone. It's all gone, can it be better?
Ru Xia, who had been paying attention to Ru Dong's expression, naturally did not miss the change in her eyes from pride to contempt and disdain. She couldn't help but be shocked again: Contempt?Ru Dong, who has always been simple and kind, would actually look at her with such contempt?how so?Does Rudong know anything?You know, there are four of them in spring, summer, autumn and winter. Ruchun has been with the girl the longest, and is the most trusted by the girl and Princess Qianxin. She is also the busiest, and Ruqiu is the most thoughtful, so Rudong and she can She was said to be the best and closest to her, but when had he ever looked at her with such eyes?Is this still the Rudong whose thoughts she is confident she can control?
Zhiruo saw the shock and loss on Ruxia's face, which was exactly the same as the look on her face that day when she was determined and Li Shiqiu Yiran looked at her, and by the way, Mama Yan.They all seemed to be frustrated, angry and unwilling to...well, watch the kite they were holding break the string and fly away.How funny!Everyone thinks they are who they are, and they are always thinking of playing tricks on others.Not willing?Why are you unwilling?
"It seems like Ruxia, you really just came to see me. When we meet, it can be regarded as fulfilling the friendship between master and servant for many years. I won't accompany you." Zhiruo's face seemed to be smiling, but Ruxia couldn't tell her at all. What are you thinking about? I just know that the older girls would never talk like this. The feeling is... scary, even scarier than Princess Qianxin.

"Girl...girl," Ruxia blurted out, "I want to talk to Rudong, is it okay?"

Zhiruo didn't embarrass her: "Rudong? Okay, let her take you out of Zhuangzi, right?" It had been almost two-quarters of an hour since we walked out, so we should have finished saying everything, right?

Ruxia's face turned pale. Send her out of Zhuangzi?Shouldn't Rudong lead her to sit in her own room?Is the girl giving an eviction order?Really so merciless?What's more important is that she won't be able to take the next step without going to Rudong's room!There's no way to talk "properly" to guide Rudong's emotions, right?Why is this...all messed up, completely different from what she thought and planned.

When Ruxia was stunned, Zhiruo had already taken Ruchun out. Rudong urged impatiently: "What are you thinking about? Shall I take you out? There are still many things to be busy with later." She really didn't like dealing with these people. It was tiring, a waste of time, and sad. It was better to make snacks, which were interesting and delicious, and filled the air with a sweet smell.busy?Ruqiu said in a daze: "Are you really... okay?" Didn't you say that you didn't even get some snacks?

Ruqiu waited for her to return her purse, but no one was there. She deliberately sent her maid to order snacks and buy cakes. When she asked Rudong, she found out that Rudong had not been there to order snacks since that day. Could it be that the eldest girl began to suspect Ruqiu? Dong, slowly stop letting her have contact with snacks?
Not only did Ruqiu think so, she also thought so.When the eldest girl found out what her father Niu San was thinking, didn't she immediately drive them out?Later, it was discovered that Ruqiu liked Lord Qiu, and he soon alienated Ruqiu. He no longer allowed Ruqiu to be by his side, but was sent to work as a female celebrity?
According to the girl's suspicious but ruthless style of doing things, if she found out that Rudong and Ruqiu were secretly interacting with each other, shouldn't she have already distanced herself from Rudong and reduced Rudong's contact with snack making?She and Ruqiu analyzed it carefully and found that the pastries for the dim sum should have been made by Ru Dong and Sister-in-law Xia, who was the best at making dim sum in the big kitchen.Sister-in-law Xia's family is all in Meizhuang. The eldest girl must trust Sister-in-law Xia more. With Sister-in-law Xia here, she will not care about Rudong.

Could it be that this girl Rudong was so stupid that she didn't notice that she was being suspected or disliked?It's not like that. Rudong's thoughts have always been straight forward. If she suddenly doesn't have the things she likes to do and is used to doing, she will be depressed if she changes.

Or maybe the girl didn't use the same method to guard against Rudong?Also, Rudong is different from her and Ruqiu. After all, she has mastered the making of pastries. Even if the older girl doesn't reuse them, she won't throw them away as easily as she did with them.Even if the eldest girl couldn't think of that much, Ruchun, Uncle Qiang, and Uncle Qi around her would remind her, wouldn't they?Ruxia suddenly felt that her father was right. Both Ruqiu and she were used to the innocent and coaxing girl before, but they had forgotten that most of the things that the girl did now were not what they expected. Now even Rudong Everything had changed, and it was all beyond her control.

Without Zhiruo's faint, but infinitely stressful look in front of her eyes, Ruxia's head turned much faster, and she became more and more troubled. Zhiruo's attitude just now had already confirmed her, even if she no longer follows Ruqiu now Let's go. It's impossible to go back to Meizhuang according to my parents' plan. Where to go?

When she came back to her senses, she saw Rudong walking towards the door impatiently. Ruxia hurriedly followed: "Why are you walking so fast? Rudong, are you angry with me?"

Rudong had a strange look on his face: "Why am I angry with you? Have you done anything to make me feel sorry for the girl or me?" He didn't slow down while speaking.

"No, how could there be? Didn't I just come to see you?" Ruxia suppressed the panic in her heart and replied hurriedly.

Rudong raised his eyebrows and actually smiled: "Isn't that okay? Now we have nothing to do, why should I be so angry with you? I'm busy."

"Are you really so busy?" Ruxia finally couldn't help it anymore, "Ruqiu said she gave you the wrong purse, and she didn't see you return it. It turns out you really don't have time to go out."

Rudong curled her lips: "She really knows that it's not my purse. No wonder Ruchun said she was uneasy and well-meaning. It's true."

Ru Xia felt that half of her eyes were dark: "Ruchun said she was uneasy and kind-hearted? Why?" Do they really know everything?
Rudong was cheerful: "Ruchun has always been smarter than me. He said that Ruqiu couldn't buy cakes and recipes from me. He also asked me not to tell the girl that we had met, but then asked someone to give her a purse. It's not because of uneasiness or good intentions. ? Fortunately, I happened to be by the girl’s side that day, so I immediately explained everything to her, otherwise I wouldn’t make her suspicious?”

Did you say anything?Having already mentioned the snack recipe, how could the girl and Ruchun still be fooled?Also, Ruxia suddenly understood why she was treated coldly today and was implicated. They were all maids who were abandoned and kicked out. Ruqiu had just been found out and the girl was angry, but she came here. It was not in vain. Being offended?
Ruxia broke into cold sweat: "Since you are busy, there is no need to see me off. This road goes straight out. I can just walk on my own. I will meet familiar people along the way. I can't lose them." Since the girl was angry at her, she must also He wouldn't believe her and would definitely call Rudong for questioning later. Fortunately, she didn't have time to say anything.Dad said, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and Meizhuang has big backers, so it will do no good to offend them.But Dad also made a mistake in his calculations. Since the girl would no longer trust those who left because of Ruqiu's involvement, even if she did not waver today, the girl would not accept her return to Meizhuang.

Ruxia patted her chest secretly, she didn't say anything today, right?But, what to do at home?Dad's money has been defrauded by that Wenda administrator. There's no evidence, and there's no place to sue. If he can't get enough money to cover family expenses and pay for his younger brother's studies, dad and mom might just agree to that friend. suggested that he send her to be a concubine to the old man who could be his grandfather.
