After entering the book, the cold prince begs for favor
Chapter 31 The thief who stole the clothes couldn’t be someone else.
Cao Lanxin was so angry that she wanted to catch the thief, but ended up fainting from anger and ended up in a miserable state.
I don’t know if she will regret it.
It was late at night, and Yuan Wanru was not in a hurry to ask for the red gold headdress.
Cao Lanxin was already dizzy, but she still kept pursuing him, which was really unmannerly.
She will go to collect the debt another day when Cao Lanxin is in a better mood.
On the sixth day of July, the night breeze was cool in early autumn. The Milky Way was looming in the sky, and a half-moon hung in the distance, like a girl's eyebrows, graceful and cool.
In the shadows of the tall and dark trees, there were tiny flickers of light, sometimes brighter and sometimes dimmer, sometimes high and sometimes low.
Yuan Wanru guessed that it should be a firefly.
She and Lu Jiangnian returned to Lingshuiju in silence all the way.
A deep and magnetic male voice came from the side: "He was really ruthless and got the whole set of headgear in one go."
"However, although you won, you completely offended the Cao sisters, and your grandmother sees you as a thorn in her side. Don't you think you've made too many enemies?"
Yuan Wanru smiled contentedly, and raised her hand to fiddle with the loose hair on her temples.
"The old lady doesn't like me in the first place, and it's even less likely that the Cao sisters will like me. They have always been hostile to me, and it's not like they just made enemies today."
"They wanted to trick me, and I tricked them back. It's all cause and effect."
"When an enemy comes, we will fight him; when a flood comes, we will block it with earth. There is nothing to be afraid of."
Lu Jiangnian looked at her with interest. The big lanterns under the eaves of the corridor cast warm light, which fell on her curved brows and clear eyes.
The girl's lips curled up and her eyes were determined.
For the first time, he felt curious about the woman in front of him.
I thought that she must have some ulterior motives for trying so hard to become his wife.
It's not that he is too confident. There are many girls in the capital who want to discuss marriage with him. It's not surprising that Yuan Wanru has that idea.
He always thought that she would take advantage of her status as his wife to get close to him, try to please him in every way, and try to win his favor.
But, she didn't.
These days, except today, she has never taken the initiative to look for him.
In his impression, she was taciturn, timid, and had no sense of existence.
But the person in front of me is confident, intelligent, and radiant.
What kind of person is she and why does she want to marry him?
His eyes were complicated as he stared at her blankly. His calm face was stern and majestic, like a dormant beast, waiting for the right opportunity to pounce on her in the next moment.
Yuan Wanru felt a chill down her spine. "What are you doing? Why are you looking at me like that?"
Lu Jiangnian withdrew his gaze and said casually, "Nothing, we'll leave tomorrow."
Huh, it’s earlier than she thought. She thought he would go out after noon.
"Shall we go to the night market tonight?"
"go."
Yuan Wanru went to Rongshou Hall alone tonight, and his mother was furious.
If he doesn't take her shopping tomorrow night, my mother won't know how long she will nag him.
Yuan Wanru nodded excitedly. It was really rare to be able to go out and play for a day.
"What about the rest?"
Lu Jiangnian smiled and said, "Tomorrow, it's just you and me."
Yuan Wanru frowned, thought for a while, and finally understood what he meant.
Liang Yusong injured his waist and definitely couldn't go. After the Cao sisters made such a scene tonight, how could he have the nerve to go with them tomorrow?
What Wang Min hopes most now is that Lu Jiangnian and Yuan Wanru live in harmony. If the outside guests do not go, she should also stop the girls at home from going with them.
Alas, Wang Min’s efforts were in vain.
Lu Jiangnian glanced at the lilac-colored skirt she was wearing. All the charming scenery was hidden under the slightly loose clothes, and it was finally not so dazzling.
He was satisfied, but he had to ask one more question: "Didn't you say you liked that dress very much?"
"Why don't you continue wearing it?"
Yuan Wanru laughed out of anger. He was becoming more and more nosy. Did he really think he was her husband?
Even if they are a real couple, it is her freedom to wear whatever she wants.
She used to be a doctor and was not used to wearing tight clothes. She only liked to wear loose and comfortable clothes so that she could feel at ease at work.
If she really liked wearing tight clothes, she would wear them even if it made him mad.
“No matter how beautiful the clothes are, you can’t wear them all the time. They lose their freshness.”
She reached out and pulled her sleeves, her eyes raised: "I'll wear it to show others when I go out another day."
Lu Jiangnian narrowed his eyes slightly, and said in a tone that carried an inexplicable danger: "You still want to wear it and go out?"
"Why not?"
She smiled slightly and looked at him provocatively.
"Keep the geese and close the door."
With that, he walked into the Mianyue Pavilion, leaving the arrogant man standing there.
She could feel his eyes fixed on her back.
-
Back in the room, Aunt Pang looked at her with dismay, "Madam, why don't you invite the eldest young master in?"
"It's so late, why invite him in?"
Aunt Pang was furious: "You are husband and wife, why did you invite him in?"
Yuan Wanru deliberately changed the subject: "Well, we are husband and wife. Tomorrow we are going to Xiangyuan Temple together. I heard that the marriage signs in Xiangyuan Temple are the most effective. I should pray carefully tomorrow."
"Mammy, you'll be leaving early tomorrow, so please go to bed early."
What else can Aunt Pang do?
I had no choice but to ask Liu Yan and Liu Zhi to help Yuan Wanru wash up quickly so as not to delay tomorrow's matters.
Sure enough, just as Yuan Wanru had thought, when she was about to go to bed, Wang Min sent someone over to say that she would lead the girls in the family to make snacks tomorrow and prepare for the night worship of the Weaver Girl, so the girls would not go with them tomorrow.
Aunt Pang immediately smiled.
-
The next day, Nanny Pang got up early in the morning and searched through the boxes for most of the day before she picked out a piece of clothing that she was satisfied with.
At her strong request, Yuan Wanru was pressed down by the three of them and dressed up carefully.
While eating breakfast, Liuzhi looked sad and no one knew what he was thinking about.
Yuan Wanru saw her appearance and asked with concern: "What's wrong? What happened so early in the morning?"
Liuzhi said with a bitter face, "Didn't you come back yesterday wearing the clothes of the cousin from the Cao family?"
"When I changed it in the evening, I took it to the laundry room and asked them to wash it carefully and return it to my cousin someday."
"This morning, the laundry woman came over and said that the clothes were missing."
Liu Yan was also surprised. She said hesitantly, "Cousin couldn't bear to part with it, so she sent someone to take it back."
Liuzhi shook his head. "No, the people in the laundry said no one had taken it. How did it disappear?"
She didn't know what she was thinking about, but her face became uglier and uglier. "Could it be that someone stole it on purpose to frame Madam?"
Just like the red gold hairpin, it was given to the eldest young lady on the surface, but secretly she was framed for stealing it.
Yuan Wanru laughed out loud. Even if Cao Lanxin was a fool, she would not do such a thing.
But, what a coincidence, the clothes were lost?
Could it be someone?
Is he so cruel as to prevent him from wearing that dress?
-
When they arrived at the gate of the Marquis' Mansion, Lu Jiangnian was already riding on horseback, waiting quietly.
He heard the sound and looked over.
Yuan Wanru did not see the fleeting light in his eyes.
A young girl in her twenties, with a smile on her lips and a pair of beautiful eyes filled with joy and happiness, walked towards him with light steps.
She was wearing a light pink skirt, and the ribbon around her waist outlined her slender waist and plumpness, just like a lotus flower blooming in a lotus pond in the early morning, containing crystal clear dewdrops, fresh and juicy.
A gilded hibiscus hairpin inlaid with rubies was inserted in her long black hair, and her pretty face was lightly powdered with makeup. She was so beautiful and energetic that it was impossible to take your eyes off her for a moment.
Yuan Wanru didn't know what time it was. She quickened her pace, looked up at Lu Jiangnian, and asked with a smile, "Am I late?"
The bright autumn sunshine, shining from the high sky onto the earth, fell on his slender and upright body. He was wearing a sky-blue robe with cloud patterns today, and the cuffs embroidered with green bamboo patterns were slightly turned up, revealing his strong wrists.
A pair of large hands with distinct joints casually held the reins, with a relaxed and unrestrained posture, yet with an edge that could not be ignored.
With the appearance of a dragon and the grace of a phoenix, his aura covers the clouds.
In just a moment, she had come down from the horse, looking up at him, their eyes intertwined, invisibly entangled.
His eyes were as dark as ink: "It's still early, get in the car."
Yuan Wanru boarded the carriage and looked at the back of the person leading the way in front of her. She felt that this scene seemed familiar.
She then remembered that when he sent her to Baima Street that day, it was just like today.
The book doesn't mention going out on Chinese Valentine's Day.
The original owner fell ill after being punished to kneel in the ancestral hall and is now lying in bed.
I wonder if I will meet Princess Le'an today?
In the book, Princess Le'an kept pestering Lu Jiangnian and never gave up. She stayed with him for a long time before leaving.
The carriage was moving forward when it suddenly stopped. Xiangyuan Temple was not that close. Could it be that she was a jinx and Princess Le'an was here to block them again?
She lifted the carriage curtain and looked out, only to see that they had stopped in front of a three-story building. A black lacquered plaque with gold characters hung on the first-floor door: Qingfeng Building.
Lu Jiangnian arrived in front of the car: "Get out."
She stared over and asked: "Why are you here?"
"I have something to do. Please stay here for a while. We will go to Xiangyuan Temple later."
Yuan Wanru didn't ask any more questions. She had no interest in hearing about Lu Jiangnian's affairs.
She had heard that Qingfenglou had several specialties before, and her eyes widened slightly: "In that case, why don't we have lunch at Qingfenglou."
Lu Jiangnian had already noticed that this woman had a strong appetite and must be thinking about the dishes at Qingfeng Tower.
"what ever."
Sure enough, her eyes suddenly burst into life like fireworks, shining like stars.
