After entering the book, the cold prince begs for favor

Old Madam Lu didn't expect that Zhou Fang, like a fence-sitter, would stand on Yuan Wanru's side so quickly.

She laughed in anger: "Okay, very good."

"You want the jade bracelet, right?"

"I will give it to you. I want to see if you are lucky enough to keep this jade bracelet given by the emperor."

Yuan Wanru was not afraid of being looked down upon, and immediately ordered Qingju: "Go and get the jade bracelet. I want to wear it right now. It will definitely suit me."

Qingju looked at Old Madam Lu in embarrassment. That was the old madam's favorite, so how could she dare to touch him casually?

Madam Lu stamped her feet and said, "Give it to her."

What if you don’t give it to me?

Listen to what Jiang Nian said. If the first wife can't get the jade bracelet, she will never give up.

They didn't feel sorry for the child in Aunt Pan's belly, but the old woman did, because that was Lu Bai's own flesh and blood.

Yuan argued that if she made a scene and delayed Jiang Xun's marriage proposal, wouldn't that be a loss of the greater good?

Just deal with it for now, she will definitely find a way to get it back later. And what about Lu Song? He is her son, and he is always more filial than a grandson.

After all the commotion, it finally came to an end.

In Wangchun Hall, Yuan Wanru handed the carved mahogany lacquer box to Wang Min: "Mother, this jade bracelet is given to you by your daughter-in-law."

"I heard that Dad received a reward and was planning to give it to you secretly, but Second Aunt somehow got the news and instigated the old lady to take it away."

"Today, this bracelet has been returned to its original owner."

Wang Min felt warm in her heart. This child had worked so hard to get something, and he gave it to her so easily.

"Mother is not lacking."

"This jade bracelet has a clear color and looks best on a young girl. You can keep it."

Thinking of something, the smile on her face faded a little.

"Mother knows you've been wronged today, but after this incident, I'm afraid for you..."

Yuan Wanru didn't care. She held the red date sweet soup and drank it with her eyes narrowed. It was sweet but not greasy. The cook's cooking skills were really good.

"She doesn't like me in the first place, and I don't expect her to like me either. It's enough for us to just get along with each other."

"I have my mother who likes me, but I don't care about the old lady's likes."

Wang Min didn't know whether to be happy or not.

This child seems to be less sensitive recently, and instead has a free and easy attitude.

However, she is not flexible enough and may offend people easily, so she should be more careful.

"Mom's love isn't the most important thing. The most important thing is Jiang Nian's love."

She saw her son sitting quietly beside her and couldn't help but make a joke.

She was originally worried that Jiang Nian and Wanru would not get along well, but it turned out to be different after they got married. Today, Jiang Nian also gave Wanru enough confidence.

Yuan Wanru turned her head to look at the man and suddenly felt a burning pain in her wrist. Although it was because of him that the old woman had to give up her wrist, she was not grateful to him.

However, in front of Wang Min, she had to lower her head shyly.

In just a few days, when Lu Jiangnian stepped into the bedroom of Lingshuiju again, he actually felt a little unfamiliar.

The interior layout has changed from its previous simple and elegant style. Green gauze curtains are hung on the window lattices, and when the breeze blows, the shadows are hazy, which creates a unique atmosphere.

There are seven or eight potted flowers placed under the windowsill, full of vitality. There is no incense in the room, but the fragrance of flowers adds a fresh and natural touch.

Yuan Wanru sat lazily on the bamboo couch, the cool feeling almost made her sigh.

It’s still more comfortable in my own little nest.

She looked at Lu Jiangnian across from her: "What's wrong?"

Obviously, she didn't think that he should be here. Lu Jiangnian felt inexplicably amused.

"I have a few words to say."

Nanny Pang smiled so brightly that her teeth showed. She set out the tea and snacks, her attitude attentive and careful: "Young Master, please have some chrysanthemum and lotus seed tea. It's very hot in the summer, and this tea is refreshing. The eldest young lady specially asked me to make it."

Thank God, the eldest son finally showed up.

It had been a few days since they got married, but the couple hadn't been together at all. It was driving them crazy.

Unfortunately, the young lady was very opinionated at the moment and didn't allow them to mention this matter to the eldest lady. Madam Pang was so worried that she couldn't sleep well at night.

She quickly led the others out, just hoping they could get closer.

They were the only two people left in the room. Yuan Wanru held her forehead with one hand, leaning against the pillow, and said lazily, "I've been tired for a long time and I'm not in good spirits. If you have something to say, please say it quickly."

Lu Jiangnian sneered and was about to speak when he saw a frightening circle of purple bruises on her wrist where her sleeve hung.

This location...

Could it be that he just did it?

He had clearly restrained his strength on purpose, so why did he look so badly injured?

Yuan Wanru didn't hear the sound, so she opened her eyes and looked over, and saw his expression as he looked at his wrist.

Only then did she remember that he had pinched her and hurt her just now.

Although there were reasons for it, he did act too harshly.

She simply pulled down a section of her sleeve, exposing her forearm and holding it out to him: "Did you see it?"

"Look at you, why are you using so much strength? I'm a girl, and you don't even know how to be gentle."

"I'm not stupid. I can understand even if you touch me gently. Just now I thought you were going to break my hand."

"Don't be so rude anymore, do you understand?"

The rising ending tone was light and soft, like a coquettish tone, which made Lu Jiangnian's ears feel a little hot.

The half of the crystal white jade arm swayed in front of his eyes, making the purple bruise even more eye-catching.

"Feel sorry."

After staring for a moment, he lowered his eyes and said two words lightly.

Yuan Wanru didn't insist. She asked sternly, "What do you want to say?"

Her disgust was obvious, and she looked like she couldn't wait for him to leave. Lu Jiangnian felt a little weird.

His tone was cold: "I helped you with today's matter only because, in the eyes of others, you are my wife."

"Don't get me wrong, there will be no change in our relationship."

"It's just that I hope this kind of thing won't happen again."

Yuan Wanru sneered twice, anger flashing in her clear eyes: "Don't worry, I didn't misunderstand anything. In my eyes, you are still just a husband in name only."

"As for whether something like today's incident will happen, I can't guarantee it."

"There are many people in the mansion who can cause trouble. As long as someone provokes me, I will definitely fight back."

"If you want to put an end to it, you should tell the rest of the Lu family not to mess with me."

"But even if it did happen, what would it matter? You saw today that I had no problem arguing with everyone in the Lu Mansion. Even without you, I could have gotten away with it."

Lu Jiangnian just felt a little headache.

She really didn't need his help, but how could his mother let him stand by and watch?

"Forget it, you can do whatever you want."

There is no use in talking more.

If there is a next time, he will never get involved.

He put down a round white porcelain bottle and said, "This is a blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing ointment. It's quite effective. You should try it."

After the people left, Yuan Wanru picked up the white porcelain bottle, opened it and smelled it, and she roughly knew what medicinal ingredients were inside. This ointment was well-made.

She poured a little and applied it on her face. It felt cool and comfortable.

She closed her eyes and thought carefully about what happened today.
