Priceless: A widow with a baby asks the prince to marry again

The guards of Prince Duan who were guarding the courtyard first saw Madam Liu walk into the courtyard in a rage, and then she slammed the door with a "bang" after entering the house!

Their master followed closely into the yard, but on one side of his jade-white face, there were a few light red fingerprints...

"Your Highness, your face...how about I get a hot egg to apply to it, it will disappear quickly." As a close attendant, how could he not guess what was going on?

Chu Shiyu was still worried about whether Liu Rusi would bear a grudge. Hearing this, he touched his beaten face and gently touched the corner of his bitten lip. Instead, he couldn't help but smile and said, "No need. Wait for it to go away on its own."

Liu Rusi's door was closed, and it was impossible to ignore her, but it was not easy to disturb her either. Being tough at this time might just add fuel to the fire. So Chu Shiyu waited in the yard and decided to wait for her to come out before comforting her.

Little Qin Hao came back from get out of class and looked at Chu Shiyu strangely. He was about to ask his adoptive father why he was standing in the yard when he saw his adoptive father looking at him eagerly and saying, "Qin Hao, go knock on the door and ask your mother to come out, okay?"

Little Qin Hao thought for a moment and asked suspiciously, "Did my foster father do something wrong and make my mother angry?"

Chu Shiyu was speechless. What was this kid so smart for? After thinking for a while, he whispered, "Go knock on the door. My godfather will give you a pony tomorrow and teach you how to ride a horse."

Little Qin Hao's eyes lit up and he nodded happily. He had long envied everyone who could ride a horse. This condition was indeed not bad. Anyway, his mother would not be angry with him if he knocked on her door.

"Knock knock!"

"Mom~Haohao is back!"

After a short while, the door creaked open, and Liu Rusi opened the door to let little Qin Hao in. She certainly would not block Qin Hao from outside.

But before Chu Shiyu could show his ability, his face froze...

Liu Rusi put on her plain cloth clothes again, removing all her silk and satin clothes, and replaced the jade hairpin on her head with a silver hairpin that Qin Lie had made for her.

"Didn't we agree not to hold grudges?" Chu Shiyu didn't care about anything else and squeezed in through the door that was about to close.

Liu Rusi ignored him and looked at little Qin Hao and asked, "Haohao, do you want to find your mother for something?"

Little Qin Hao would not lie to his mother, but he also felt that the atmosphere was wrong. He did not dare to answer directly, but just looked at Chu Shiyu quietly.

Liu Rusi didn't look at Chu Shiyu, but just looked at Qin Hao's eyes becoming sad, and her tone was still gentle: "Haohao, do you know that some things can't be exchanged? The exchange you casually agreed to will make mother very sad."

Little Qin Hao still didn't understand the situation, but he saw his mother's eyes and felt her emotions. He felt that it was worse than his mother getting angry! Worried and frightened, his mouth pursed in grievance, and his big eyes immediately shed tears...

"Wuwu...Haohao thought that his foster father was just making mother angry...I didn't know that mother was so angry...wuwu..."

"It's not Qin Hao's fault, it's all my fault, don't blame him." Chu Shiyu's heart sank to the bottom when he saw that even Qin Hao was implicated. It was over, it was worse than he thought...

Originally, it wasn't Qin Hao's fault. Seeing her son crying, Liu Rusi couldn't help but feel distressed. She immediately retracted her gaze, wiped the tears from the little face, and said softly: "Then before doing the exchange in the future, you must first understand the situation, understand? Otherwise, you will be used as a gun and take the blame without knowing what's going on."

"Rusi, I didn't treat Qin Hao as..."

Liu Rusi finally gave him a cold look, and Chu Shiyu, who was being accused of something wrong, immediately fell silent...

Seeing that little Qin Hao nodded repeatedly and realized his mistake, Liu Rusi rubbed his head and said, "Haohao, go back to your room first. Mother has something to talk to your adoptive father about."

When Xiao Qinhao walked out, Liu Rusi opened the door wide, so that anyone passing by could see what was going on inside. This was obviously to prevent Chu Shiyu from doing anything wrong...

Chu Shiyu looked embarrassed, pretending not to notice. Liu Rusi sat down at the table and looked out the door, not saying a word for a long time.

After a short stalemate, Chu Shiyu broke the silence and said softly, "Didn't we agree not to get angry? Why... change into old clothes?"

Liu Rusi stared blankly at the door, and spoke after a moment: "You should know that the person in my heart has never changed..."

"I know! No need to say that..." Chu Shiyu still chose to avoid the problem that could not be solved.

"But what does this have to do with clothes? You should also know that no matter what clothes you wear, my feelings will not waver." It would only make him feel uncomfortable for a day or two, and he would always find a way to make her change out of her old clothes.

Liu Rusi turned to look at him and said calmly, "I know, but I thought that even if you don't agree with me, you would at least be a gentleman."

Chu Shiyu paused. As soon as he confirmed his feelings, he gave up being a gentleman. If he didn't want her love more, he wouldn't want to restrain those worldly thoughts... The longer they were together, the more he felt that Qin Lie's three years of chastity was fake. How could he resist? !

"If you don't want to see this old dress, you can use soft or hard means to take it off my body. You are the powerful Prince Duan, and I am just an ordinary woman."

She raised her hand to silence him, then looked out the door with her beautiful eyes and a tear rolled down her cheeks.

"If you insist on doing something to me, I have no way to resist. Even because Qin Hao is here, I can't muster the determination to fight to the death... Now I put on old clothes just to tell you that there are some things you can't take away."

"I won't force you..."

Chu Shiyu was halfway through his rebuttal when he remembered that the cause of this incident was the sneak kiss, and quickly changed the subject: "That was really not intentional. It might be because the weather was too hot, and I was angry recently and easily impulsive..."

Liu Rusi looked at him coldly. Blame the weather? If it were modern times, she would have wanted to call the police!

"Anyway, I'm sorry! I know I was wrong. You can punish me! You can even hit me!"

Chu Shiyu apologized sincerely and quickly added: "Just change the way you do it. It's uncomfortable for you to wear old clothes..."

"I don't feel bad."

Chu Shiyu's breath stagnated, and he whispered, "I feel uncomfortable..."

"If you don't change back on your own initiative, I'll have someone take all your clothes away."

Liu Rusi stood up suddenly and laughed angrily. He was threatening her at this time?

"You said I could punish you, right?! Anything?!"

"Well, except for those that don't work, you know..."

"Ah…"

Even if a storm subsides, the place it raged on will leave traces of destruction. If it is a forest, many innocent green leaves will be blown away.

And the same was true of the dinner table after their 'storm'.

The four of them were still sitting at the same table. Everything was normal in front of Liu Rusi, Qin Hao and Caiyun. Only in front of Chu Shiyu was there a patch of green...

"Haohao, don't take the dishes over there. Your godfather is suffering from a sore throat and needs to eat more vegetables." It was rare for Liu Rusi to take the initiative to speak at the dinner table.

Little Qin Hao didn't understand, but he knew his mother was still angry with his adoptive father. In order to avoid being implicated again, he quietly took back his chopsticks to pick up other dishes...

Chu Shiyu's face seemed to be reflected green as well. Hearing her words, he asked tentatively: "I don't want to pick up the ones over there... There are so many dishes, is it okay for Qin Hao to eat some?"

"In order to reduce your internal heat, you have to eat vegetarian food, which means you have to finish the dishes in front of you." Liu Rusi said with a wry smile.

Looking at the five plates of green vegetables of different shades, especially the largest plate of bitter melon, Chu Shiyu's face gradually became heavy. Liu Rusi said that the punishment would not end until they returned to the capital...

It would be fine if he just ate vegetarian food, he was not a meat lover, many vegetarian dishes could be cooked very deliciously. But he did not expect that what she meant by vegetarian food was to specify a few vegetarian dishes and eat them all.

"Your Highness, Prince Kang asked me to ask, are you not going to the banquet hall for dinner today?" The clerk in the government office was assigned to make the inquiry.

Liu Rusi lowered her eyes slightly, then smiled sincerely, "If you sit at the same table with King Kang, you don't have to follow the vegetarian rule."

"Are you going too?" Chu Shiyu asked back.

"I dont go."

"Then I won't go." Chu Shiyu made a straightforward decision and turned to the clerk and said, "Go and tell King Kang that I forgot to inform him, and then everyone can have their meal."

The corners of Liu Rusi's mouth flattened again, as if he was not as unable to tolerate the cooling meal as he appeared to be, and was just pretending to do so for her to see?

Chu Shiyu endured the bitterness in his mouth and actually finished eating all the bitter gourd and green vegetables.

He didn't expect that the so-called heat-reducing set meal was not just dinner. Liu Rusi stared at the maid and replaced the tea in his room with chrysanthemum tea. She also asked considerately: "Do you want some honey? It's sweeter, but it will reduce heat better~"

But maybe he was really in a bad mood recently. When he heard the word "sweet", his eyes fell on those red lips involuntarily. They were really sweet, and in the dim light, they looked quite special.

Liu Rusi, who was already alert, immediately became alarmed. She quickly turned around and went back to the house, saying coldly: "Add more honey and adjust your diet tomorrow. You really need to reduce your internal heat!"

Feeling that desire has begun to rise, Chu Shiyu has a hard time saying it. He was not like this before...

The next morning, the fever-reducing package was upgraded again.

In the morning, I have mung bean soup as the base, and lotus seeds, lilies and other foods that can clear my mind and reduce my desires as side dishes. During the day, my tea changes directly from chrysanthemum tea to coptis water...

Chu Shiyu accepted her fate and let her torment her, no matter if it was useful or not, as long as she felt that she had vented her anger.

Although there was a rift yesterday, perhaps because it was resolved in time, Liu Rusi did not change the established plan this morning and continued to teach mathematics to one adult and one child.

In the afternoon, little Qin Hao went to class for another half hour. Liu Rusi learned her lesson and stopped peeking.

In the shade of the courtyard, Liu Rusi was reading a medical book, Caiyun was practicing calligraphy, and Chu Shiyu was pretending to read a book...

"Sister Si, what do you think of Ruan Qing who picked up Xue Fei?"

Caiyun was the first to break the silence. Normally, she had trouble concentrating when practicing calligraphy, and would often do something else while practicing. Today, with two people supervising her, she only managed to persist for 25 minutes...

Liu Rusi was not very strict. When she heard Caiyun's question, she put down the medical book and thought for a while. Ruan Qing came to pick up Xuefei yesterday at noon. When she learned that Xuefei had successfully returned her indenture, she immediately bowed to her and thanked her excitedly.

"He shouldn't be a bad person." This was the only evaluation Liu Rusi could come to.

"Sister Si, I'm asking... do you think he will be good to Xue Fei?"

Liu Rusi closed the medical book completely and asked with a sigh, "Did Xue Fei tell you? Or did you see it too?"

"I can see that when Xue Fei saw Ruan Qing yesterday, she felt different from when she saw other people..." The women in Da Xia marry early, so many girls fall in love early. Caiyun is also at an age where she focuses on love.

Liu Rusi looked at Caiyun, who was in love, and thought that she should guide this little girl whom she regarded as a sister. However, she did not say anything about Xuefei and Ruanqing. Instead, she asked softly, "Have you heard of "Mang" in the Book of Songs?"

Caiyun shook her head. She had just finished learning the Thousand Character Classic and had not read any other book yet.

"The rogues are so stupid, carrying cloth to trade for silk..."

Liu Rusi recited the story sentence by sentence, explaining how the man went to discuss marriage under the pretext of exchanging silk, and the woman was attracted and asked the man to act as a matchmaker and set a wedding date with her.

In the first half of the story, Caiyun had a look of longing on her face, and she did not notice anything unusual in her desire to be married to her lover.

From the beginning of the story, Caiyun was puzzled as to why she was so violent. But when she heard the words "as for being violent", she began to understand, because her father Huang Dashi was such a person...

"I made a solemn promise, without thinking of the consequences. If I don't think about the consequences, what's the point..." Liu Rusi told the story slowly, without much emotion, and ended it calmly.

Caiyun lowered her eyes, digesting the thought for a while, then recalled the original question and asked in a low voice: "Sister Si, do you think... Ruan Qing will treat Xue Fei badly?"

Liu Rusi shook her head gently and said, "I don't know. I just think that women should be more cautious about love. Xue Fei is too young. She probably hasn't thought it through."

"Then why didn't Sister Si stop her? Or tell her that there might be bad consequences." Caiyun worried.

A pair of almond-shaped eyes moved and fell on the person who was reading a book nearby. Although he looked like he was reading, as soon as she looked over, his pair of auspicious phoenix eyes met hers, which showed that he had been absent-minded.

Liu Rusi looked away and sighed, "People who are in love find it hard to listen to what others say. Xue Fei and Ruan Qing have known each other for many years. She may not listen to me if I say anything. Even if she does listen, she will hesitate and stay. She will feel regretful when she thinks about it later. Maybe she will blame me for talking too much."

"Besides, Ruan Qing may not be a bad person. He still misses Yang Liuyi who passed away a few years ago. He must be a man who values ​​friendship. I just don't know if this friendship will fall on Xue Fei one day..."

Listening to her words, Chu Shiyu suddenly realized that Yang Xuefei was the equivalent of their gender reversal situation. Ruan Qing was undoubtedly in love with the deceased Yang Liuyi now, so did Yang Xuefei have a chance?

He knew that Liu Rusi was not optimistic about Yang Xuefei, but he suddenly hoped that Yang Xuefei could succeed, even though other people's success would have no effect on his success or failure...

"I think Ruan Qing can treat Xue Fei well. After all, she is Yang Liuyi's biological sister. Maybe it won't become a romantic relationship, but being able to take care of her like a sister is pretty good."

Caiyun thought about it and was still very optimistic. She felt that things would not turn out like in "Rogue".
