As soon as she opened her eyes, she was forcibly carried back to the East Palace by the paranoid pri

Ning Rushong had an extraordinary bone structure, and so did his hands. The thin flesh adhered to the slender hand bones, and the blue veins were slightly visible under the paleness. He Yue looked at him again and again.

The more I look at her, the sadder she becomes. Why couldn't Ning Rushong have a more ordinary family background? Otherwise, she might have succumbed to the temptation of her beauty long ago!

Sometimes He Yue really suspected that Ning Rushong was a person molded according to her wishes, and everything about him was to her liking.

He Yue took the rouge jar and nodded, "Thank you, Mr. He."

After He Yue came to this world, she was taken care of by Ning Rushong in all aspects of food, clothing, housing and transportation. She had hardly ever suffered any hardship, and as time went by, she began to look like a girl who doesn't know the worries of others.

Ning Rushong likes her the most like this. She will never encounter any setbacks again and can just live happily and carefree.

Xia Suling did not come empty-handed. She was followed by two maids, one of whom was carrying a bag full of snacks and cakes, and the other was holding a brocade wrapped in cloth.

At this time, Ning Rushong had already left.

After placing the things on the stone table, Xia Suling waved her hand and asked the two maids to retreat outside the yard and wait. She sat on a chair next to the recliner, smiling softly and teasingly, and pointed at He Yue with the fan in her hand, "Aren't you thinking of opening a rouge shop? Why are you still so lazy? Are you inseparable from the recliner?"

He Yue sat cross-legged on the recliner, not sitting like a girl. Fortunately, her pretty face stubbornly maintained her dignity.

She felt a little guilty. "Don't be fooled by my lazy appearance. Actually, I am always thinking about this. Where should I buy the shop? Where do I get the goods from? Thinking about these things is very exhausting."

With money in hand, she was not worried. She thought of buying a shop in the county, preferably a bigger one, with a shop in the front and people living in the backyard. After all, if she really started a business, she couldn't run back and forth.

"You are always clever with your words." Xia Suling shook her head and opened the cloth bag. Inside were several pieces of brocade. Although the color was plain, the patterns on it were very complicated and exquisite. She persuaded, "You, since you often interact with Mr. He, you must have some potential. You should wear better clothes."

"Now that the first month has passed, you can pick the white silk flowers." Xia Suling sincerely comforted her, "The people and things in the past have already been decided. It's harder for us women. We still have to walk a new path. It's not easy to feel good if we keep burying ourselves in the past."

The Dayun Dynasty encouraged widows to remarry, and they only needed to remain widowed for one month after their late husband's death.

Because it was a false story, He Yue did not have a deep conversation with Xia Suling. She finally got up from the recliner, put the rouge jar in her hand on the stone table, and sat down opposite Xia Suling.

She opened the box of pastries that Xia Suling had brought, picked up a piece with her fingers and tasted it. The piece in her hand had the fragrance of lotus. She was not a picky eater and thought everything was delicious.

He Yue looked at the backyard door and knew that the two maids were still waiting there. She asked Xia Suling, "You've been going out a lot recently, but the county magistrate doesn't keep you here anymore?"

Xia Suling also picked up a piece of cake, but she was much more polite and used a handkerchief to cushion it. She raised her eyes and glanced at her, "If my husband heard you calling him the county magistrate, he would be scared. You should change the name, even calling him by his name is fine."

Officials seldom call each other husband and wife, but usually call each other "husband and wife", which better shows their status. Xia Suling calls Bai Huixian like this, which shows that the two of them are in a good relationship now.

He Yue shrugged and smiled, her eyebrows raised, and she took another bite of the cake, this time it tasted like steamed chestnut powder with sugar, "No, I'm just taking advantage of Master He. When Master He leaves one day, I will be the fake Monkey King who has been beaten back to my original form. It will be so embarrassing, and everyone will feel like they are being held back by their necks."

The more Xia Suling got along with her, the more comfortable she felt. He Yue would never be blinded by anything else. She always looked at everything clearly, without greed or confusion.

She didn't want He Yue to fall into hardship in the future. She didn't finish half of the cake. She held He Yue's wrist with one hand and lowered her voice, "You still have to make a decision early. A man like Mr. He will definitely not stay in a small Min County. His destination is destined to be Yuncheng."

Xia Suling didn't know his specific identity, but she thought it should be noble and extraordinary. She had seen with her own eyes how humble Bai Huixian was in front of him.

Mr. He clearly has two different faces in front of Yueyue and in front of others. The difference is so great that Xia Suling is a little worried about He Yue. The more effort he is willing to put in, the more determined he is to win.

How can the power in this world be reasonable? What should He Yue do if gentleness fails and she has to use force?

Who would have thought that He Yue was not sad at all, and she expressed her plan very naturally, "Of course I know he won't stay here. When he leaves, the huge difference in our status will naturally separate us. He won't force me."

Xia Suling felt that He Yue was being stubborn. He was not a kind person at all. He was clearly very scary. However, she opened her mouth several times but did not dare to say anything bad about Ning Rushong. She could only give up in disappointment.

She answered the question that He Yue had asked first, "Ever since my husband found me a miracle doctor and used herbal medicine, my health has improved greatly, and gradually he has stopped restricting me."

"That medicine is amazing, but sometimes I can't even feel my pain, and I don't know whether it's good or bad." Thinking of this, Xia Suling felt a little melancholy.
