Good luck every time

Anger flashed across Li Ruyi's face, which made the old lady of the Zhao family raise her eyebrows and turn to look at the trusted maid beside her.

Receiving her gaze, the old woman retreated quietly.

Li Ruyi clenched his fists, as if he had just suppressed the anger in his heart, and then spoke.

"Madam, you don't know that I was originally a little girl from the village who had rarely seen the world. I left the village first to survive and second to support my family."

"After years of traveling, I have seen too many women living helpless lives, and I don't want to be trapped in this situation myself."

"People often say that women should be virtuous and kind, but I have never thought of it that way."

The old lady of the Zhao family still looked very relaxed, but there was a hint of sharpness in her expression as she looked at Li Ruyi.

She thought Li Ruyi was annoyed by Zhao Qi's pursuit and wanted her to help.

Although she could do this, Li Ruyi's move was undoubtedly a slap in the face of Zhao Qi and a disgrace to the Zhao family.

However, just when the old lady of the Zhao family was in a bad mood, Li Ruyi changed the subject.

"But, if that's all, it's fine."

"But today, the second son of your family suddenly found me and said some inexplicable words. When I returned, several of my cousins ​​were beaten up!"

"Maybe he saw that I was acting inappropriately, or maybe he felt that it was embarrassing for his brother to be rejected by someone like me, so he wanted to give me a warning!"

When the old lady of the Zhao family heard this, she raised her eyebrows. She was indeed a little surprised.

But in a flash, she connected the cause and effect of the incident.

Li Ruyi's eyes turned red with anger.

"I have nowhere else to turn to, so I came to you for help. I want to use this favor to exchange for a quiet life. I hope Madam will grant my wish!"

The old lady of the Zhao family narrowed her eyes and fumbled with the jade ring on her hand.

The ring is warm and pure, and just one is worth a thousand taels of gold.

Even this, there is still no demand for it.

When Li Ruyi lowered her eyes and glanced over, she seemed quite calm.

There was silence in the room for a moment. The old lady of the Zhao family took a deep breath and then spoke.

"I am sorry that Miss Li has been wronged. I was the one who taught Sun Wufang. However, this favor should not be used in this way!"

Li Ruyi lowered his head, seeming a little stubborn.

The old lady of the Zhao family had seen and heard too many things, so she instinctively thought about the role Li Ruyi played in this matter.

However, she couldn't connect too deeply.

One reason is that Li Ruyi is young, only fifteen years old. Even if he is gifted and thoughtful, it is difficult to hide it from the old lady of the Zhao family.

Another reason is that Li Ruyi and Zhao You were not familiar with each other and had no way of predicting Zhao You's style of doing things.

Her behavior was more like her immature counterattack after Zhao Qi framed Han Shian.

Or maybe, she didn't want to break up with him, but she wanted to warn Zhao Qi...

It just so happened that Zhao Qi was a simple-minded person, and he didn't notice anything wrong when the person he sent out was sent back to him!

In this way, Li Ruyi seems to be more upright, while Zhao You who was involved seems to be the one who bullies others by taking advantage of his power and is unreasonable!

The old lady of the Zhao family instantly reconstructed the whole story according to her own ideas, and when she looked at Li Ruyi again, there was a hint of smile in her eyes.

"Don't worry about this matter. I will give you an explanation! Don't be angry. Everything will be settled."

Li Ruyi raised her head and looked at the old lady of the Zhao family with a complicated look.

The old lady of the Zhao family smiled and nodded at her.

"By the way, Miss Li has been in the city for some time. Have you tried the famous delicacies in the city?"

Li Ruyi seemed to be slightly infected by her smile, and shook his head after hesitating for a moment.

The old lady of the Zhao family took the opportunity to change the subject and chatted with Li Ruyi about many things in the capital city.

What she said were all secrets and the affairs of the head of the family.

These things are not big, but they can be used to bring people closer.

And when talking about it, the old lady of the Zhao family will inevitably be brought up. If Li Ruyi can handle it well, it can bring a lot of convenience to himself.

Li Ruyi understood that this was a little comfort given to her by the old lady of the Zhao family.

She readily accepted.

After all, this was what she had planned in the first place!

The two had almost finished chatting, and Li Ruyi thanked the old lady of the Zhao family and once again brought up his previous idea.

Naturally, this was not allowed.

The Zhao family's reputation is much more valuable than Li Ruyi. If Li Ruyi were struck to death by lightning as soon as she left the house, Old Madam Zhao would definitely be happy to see it and would also help her settle her family.

Unfortunately, Li Ruyi looks like he can live for a long time, so he can only maintain the dignity of this lifesaver.

Otherwise, who would dare to save the Zhao family members when they are out in the world in the future?

In addition to the Zhao family, there are other families in the city. How can we talk about them after knowing these things?! ?

Besides, the Zhao family has its own internal conflicts. So many people are watching her, waiting for her to make a mistake. How can she give away the ready-made evidence?

Besides, Li Ruyi's incident seemed to be a trivial matter.

The old lady of the Zhao family spoke in a fair manner, but she had already weighed the pros and cons in her mind.

Li Ruyi seemed to be too thin-skinned to argue to the death. Even though he was still hesitant to speak in the end, he also acquiesced in many of the old lady Zhao's statements.

When she left, Mrs. Zhao's expression suddenly became serious.

After waiting for a while, the maid she sent out came back.

"How about it?"

The old woman came closer, bent down and lowered her head, very respectful.

"Reporting to Madam, it is basically true."

This person spoke briefly and to the point. The old lady of the Zhao family nodded and asked her.

"Basically? Is there any discrepancy?"

The old woman nodded slightly.

"When the Second Young Master threatened Miss Li, he was not as subtle as Miss Li said."

Old Mrs. Zhao was so angry that she laughed.

"No wonder!"

The image of Li Ruyi in her mind is that of a little girl who is somewhat ambitious and precocious.

He is a man who knows how to adapt to the times.

He neither took advantage of Zhao Qi's high status to help him, nor did he ask for anything by relying on his status as a benefactor.

Now he comes to my house so rashly, which shows that he is really angry.

If you put yourself in their shoes, the opponent is a giant and you are helpless, and your own family members are beaten like that, no one will be calm.

The old lady of the Zhao family originally thought that Zhao You was a cunning man who needed to be polished. Now it seems that he has done too many small tricks behind the scenes, and some of them are shameless and do not care about the consequences!

Hearing the old lady Zhao's sigh, the old woman didn't say a word in response. She stood quietly at the back, acting as a qualified background board.

Zhao You was soon captured by people sent by Old Lady Zhao.

As for Li Ruyi, as soon as he got home, he saw the doctor sent by the Zhao family wandering in front of his door with a little medicine boy carrying a medicine box.

Li Ruyi knew this doctor. He was an excellent doctor but also very arrogant.

In his previous life, he despised Li Ruyi because she was a concubine and would even step away from her when talking to her.

This time he was very respectful. He bowed when he saw people and told them with a smile that the Zhao family had sent him here.

There were many neighbors watching the fun around, and they didn't care about the chilly spring weather. They all leaned against the walls of their houses and looked at the Li family.

When they heard that the Zhao family had sent people, some people reacted quickly, but some people didn't understand and still looked like they were waiting for a good show.

Li Ruyi also smiled and saluted the doctor, then turned around and gave Li Er a wink.

Li Er turned around, took two steps back, and then took a running start and jumped directly into the yard.

His agile movements caused a burst of exclamations, and even the doctor's eyes widened.

After a while, Li Er opened the door from the inside, and Li Shiliu followed him, and the two of them welcomed the people in together.

Li Ruyi and the doctor made way for each other, walked in, and took people directly to see Li Shiba.

Li Shiba's injuries were clearly visible, and Li Ruyi got angry every time he saw him.

She had already expected that the goods would be smashed, but she didn't expect that Zhao You was such a fool and dared to hurt others!

Maybe it was because Zhao Qi was unlucky in his previous life that Zhao You took advantage of him.

Don't blame Li Ruyi for complaining when the evidence is delivered to her door.

After examining Li Shiba's injuries, the doctor gave him a new prescription and medicine.

The little pharmacist prepared the medicine in front of Li Ruyi, and it was obvious that he did not want Li Ruyi to pay a penny.

Li Ruyi did not hit anyone who smiled at him, nor did he make things difficult for them. He closed the door again after everyone left and called Li Shiliu over.

The three of them had just said a few words, discussing how many things were broken and how to deal with them, when someone else came in.

The Zhao family sent a box of medicinal supplements. Although it was not the head steward who came in person, he was a very respectable steward of the Zhao family.

Li Ruyi accepted all the things and was about to go back to talk when Zhao Qi arrived!

When he saw Zhao Qi, Li Ruyi was no longer so polite.

She led the man into the yard with a gloomy face, and started to speak in a sarcastic tone as soon as she entered.

"Why? Master Zhao has so much free time lately?"

Zhao Qi had just heard everything from Zhao Yan.

He was surprised when he found out that Chen Panpan was sent back by Li Ruyi.

She was surprised to learn that Zhao Mo was Zhao You's man, and then she was scolded by her grandmother because Zhao You was exposed for planting someone, and then she smashed Li Ruyi's house in anger...

Zhao Qi wanted to say something. He felt frustrated, a genuine frustration.

But when he saw Li Ruyi's aloof look, he seemed unable to say anything.

Li Ruyi waited for a moment, and seeing that he was still in a trance, she felt that the time was almost right, and then she spoke.

"Mr. Zhao, you are here to borrow my place to relax, right?"

Only then did Zhao Qi come to his senses.

"Miss Li, I just heard about what Zhao You did..."

He sighed and continued.

"This matter was caused by me, and I will give you an explanation."

After Zhao Qi finished speaking, he stared at Li Ruyi's expression, but he didn't see any emotion on Li Ruyi's face.

"I……"

Li Ru thought that he had always been so reckless, so he guided him along.

"You mean to let your grandmother scold your brother?"

Zhao Qi took a deep breath, but immediately exhaled.

Don't say it, really don't say it!

He really thought so.

if not?

After all, he is my brother, how can I beat him to death? !

He could even forgive Zhao You for placing people around Zhao Qi, let alone the fact that Zhao You beat up Li Ruyi's people.

However, after Li Ruyi asked this question, Zhao Qi was unable to answer.

He was silent for a moment before speaking.

"I heard that you are looking for a yard recently. I have a yard with three entrances. The front door faces the street, and I can do some small business there..."

Li Ruyi raised her eyebrows.

"Are you really not on guard against your brother? Now your grandmother is still over his head, and he dares to do this. How will you deal with it in the future?"

It’s not that Li Ruyi is trying to sow discord, but she must know the result.

This result determines whether she can take over this courtyard.

Zhao Qi understood what Li Ruyi meant. In the past, he always thought that he could delay it, but now it was time to express his stance.

"There are some things I can't tell my grandmother. Whenever she asks me, I just give her a perfunctory response."

"Sometimes I get angry too, but... Miss Li, you should understand me, right!?"

Li Ruyi shook her head.

"I don't quite understand! If I had so much wealth at home, I would definitely not give it up."

Zhao Qi: ...

"What about your brother?"

Li Ruyi thought about it and suddenly remembered that she hadn't thought about her unfortunate brother for many years!

Since she sold Li Zhuzi, her life has been peaceful and smooth, although not smooth sailing.

Unfortunately, she couldn't share her joy with others.

If we talk about someone who can understand her feelings, Han Shian must be ranked first, and the second is her master!

Li Ruyi replied calmly.

"I have no brothers."

Zhao Qi thought of Li Ruyi's past and knew he couldn't continue.

"I understand! Speaking of which, I was a little rash earlier and caused Miss Li a lot of trouble. From now on, I will be more careful in my thoughts and actions..."

Zhao Qi paused here before continuing.

"Chen Panpan's matter..."

Li Ruyi didn't seem to be happy because Zhao Qi liked her, nor did she seem to be disappointed because she lost Zhao Qi's pursuit.

He was even more indifferent when Zhao Qi mentioned Chen Panpan.

This time, it was Zhao Qi who was disappointed.

He imagined many possibilities, thinking that Li Ruyi would be sad because of losing him, or happy that she was no longer harassed, or angry, or relieved...

But he never thought that while he said such words despite his sadness, Li Ruyi remained indifferent.

As if everything was as it should be.

After the prosperity faded, Zhao Qi had a feeling of being desolate and broken after being stripped of all his halos.

"Since Chen Panpan is Zhao You's man, I will send him over, and I will never do such a thing again in the future."

"I wish you and...your sweetheart to share the joys and sorrows together until old age..."

Only now did Li Ruyi seem to be relieved.

"Then I also wish you and your future wife to be in harmony with each other and live happily for the rest of your life."

Zhao Qi smiled tearfully, stood up, took out the house deed from his arms and placed it on the table.

"From now on...if you encounter any difficulties, you can always come to me. I still remember your life-saving grace!"

After saying this, Zhao Qi turned and left.

Li Ruyi stood up and greeted the outside of the door.

"Brother Twenty, help me see the guests off."

Zhao Qi's back stiffened for a moment, but immediately he took another step forward.

The luxurious shoes stepped on the bumpy stone brick road, with a touch of desolation in the vanity.

But his steps became more steady.
