Yun Ruoyan frowned, put the bottle in her hand at the corner and ignored it, but seized the time to continue practicing.
At this time, most of Yun Ruoyan's energy was devoted to cultivation, and the tricks played by the eldest lady An Shi and the three idle sisters could not disturb Yun Ruoyan's mind and distract her. energy.
After the rebirth, Yun Ruoyan was extremely clear about her goals and pursuit of the future.
In her previous life, she was short-sighted, weak and incompetent, and despised herself in the contemptuous eyes of others.
When she met a man who was willing to talk to her a little bit, she would get dizzy, regardless of the truth and falsehood, and put all her enthusiasm and all her hopes into the hands of others.
Occasionally, when Yun Ruoyan reflected on her previous life, she suddenly realized that she didn't really love Pei Ziao at that time. What's more, he regards him as the only way to escape from Yun's family and his rough fate.
The weaker she was, the more she couldn't do without Pei Ziao, but that was not love, but a kind of helpless and morbid dependence.
At that time, Pei Ziao was all in her eyes and heart. For this one straw, she could give up her family and herself.
However, when she escaped from Yun's house and entered Pei's house, she changed from a tiger's den to a wolf's den, and finally fell into a bottomless abyss.
And in this life, she will become stronger, and she will use her strength to protect herself and those who treat her sincerely.
She has to open a way out of the Yun family by herself, and she has to pave a bridge for herself to the vast world!
As for An's, Yun Ruoyao, Yun Ruoyu, and Yi Qianying, including Pei Ziao, would be the most insignificant passers-by in Yun Ruoyan's splendid life.
If they don't come to provoke her, just let them settle down for a few days, if someone who is not good at looking for abuse, she will treat it as an adjustment in the boring practice, and she will definitely fight him!
"Miss, this is the old lady's birthday, what gift are you going to give?" In the early morning, Shao Yao combed Yun Ruoyan's hair in front of the dressing table, and asked Yun Ruoyan in the mirror.
In a few days it will be Grandmother Liu's 80th birthday, and the Yun Mansion is extremely busy these days.
Fifty knows the fate of life, seventy is rare, and eighty years old. These three birthdays are very important in Shenyuan Continent. Coupled with Liu's distinguished status in Yun's family, it is natural to make a big deal.
"I don't know, I haven't figured it out yet."
Yun Ruoyan looked at herself in the mirror, but a figure of a man appeared in her mind.
The man was seventeen or eighteen years old, tall and burly, but with a delicate facial contour, and the way he smiled was very similar to Yun Ruoyan.
When he wasn't smiling, he looked extraordinarily serious. The deep eyes under the thick black eyebrows were like deep ancient wells, which inherited Yun Lan's characteristics.
This young man is none other than Yun Ruoyan's elder brother, Yun Moxiao.
"Last year, on the old lady's birthday, the lady gave a high-quality mutton fat jade Ruyi left by the lady as a birthday gift, but the third lady smashed it when she deliberately bumped into the lady." Shaoyao said while smoothing Yun Ruoyan's hair.
"Among the things Madam left behind, there is only a pair of jade bracelets inlaid with glass and gold that can be sold, but the pattern and style are not suitable for birthday gifts." Shao Yao frowned in embarrassment.
After Lin Yuemei passed away, she left Yun Ruoyan a lot of good things, but over the years, there are very few gifts left.
After Yun Ruoyan entered the Kongming Academy in the future, the cost would probably be even greater, and the little money left might not be enough.
All of a sudden, the poor economy made Shaoyao very worried.
"Shaoyao." Yun Ruoyan suddenly called out to the mirror, "Do you think my brother will come back this time?"
"Master?"
Shaoyao paused for combing her hair, and then she resumed her movements after a while and said, "Nowadays the world is peaceful, so it is reasonable to say that the young master should come back, but the day after tomorrow is the old lady's birthday, and I haven't heard any news. Miss, You might as well check on the old lady's tone."
Yun Moxiao is the first child of Lin Yuemei and Yun Lan, Yun Ruoyan's elder brother with the same father and mother. He entered the military camp before Yun Ruoyan could remember anything, and it has been ten years since then.
The first time Yun Ruoci met Yun Moxiao was more than three years ago when he came back to report on his work.
Yun Ruoyan hadn't been kicked out of the family academy at that time. But her cultivation has begun to stagnate.
Yun Ruoyan was ridiculed for losing several consecutive small competitions within the college, Yun Ruoyan secretly hid and cried.
Shaoyao told Yun Moxiao about this, and as a result, all those who laughed at her were severely taught by Yun Moxiao.
Yun Moxiao also comforted Yun Ruoyan, saying that it doesn't matter if she loses her talent, her brother will always protect you. That was the first time Yun Ruoyan felt the warmth of her family, but the warmth was short-lived, and soon Yun Moxiao left.
And she was immediately expelled from the family academy.
The second time Yun Ruoyan saw Yun Moxiao was when she married Pei Ziao, Yun Moxiao rushed back from the barracks and drove Yun Ruoyan to Pei's house on a big horse by the side of the wedding sedan chair.
Yun Ruoyan still remembers what Yun Moxiao said to Pei Ziao outside Xijiao, he said that if you dare to treat my sister badly, I will definitely tear you apart and raz your Pei family to the ground.
On the second day after saying this, Yun Moxiao left the imperial city and hurried back to the barracks.
However, who knows that the difference is the difference between life and death.
Yun Moxiao was robbed by mountain bandits on the way back to the barracks. When Yun Ruoyan saw Yun Moxiao again, he was already a corpse with not a single part intact.
"Miss, what's wrong with you? Did I hurt you?"
Shaoyao tied Yun Ruoyan's hair, and was about to take a good look at the effect of her handicraft in the mirror, but seeing Yun Ruoyan shed tears in a daze, she hurriedly asked.
"It's okay." Yun Ruoyan directly raised her hand and wiped her tears with her sleeve, "I was blinded by the wind and sand."
"Ah?" Shaoyao turned her head and looked out the window. Where did the wind and sand come from in such a sunny day? !
Yun Ruoyan smiled at herself in the mirror, "There is still time for everything!"
In Xianglan Garden, Yun Ruoyan was playing cards with Mrs. Liu, a pastime that Mrs. Liu had just become obsessed with recently.
"Oh, I'm sorry again!" Yun Ruoyan put the remaining cards on the table with a bitter face, "I lost again, old grandma, can't you let me go? My poor All the monthly cases have entered your pocket these days."
Liu's face was full of wrinkles with a smile, "I'm willing to bet and admit defeat, how can I give in!"
"Then I won't play." Yun Ruoyan pretended to be annoyed and said, "Grandma, you are too good, I will keep losing."
Liu Shi was amused by her cute appearance.
"Mom, why are you so happy?"
At this moment, Mrs. An came in, and as soon as she entered the door, she heard Liu's laughter from the back room. The girl opened the curtain for her, and she asked as soon as she entered the room.
When she turned her gaze to see Yun Ruoyan, her expression changed involuntarily, but in an instant she put on a smiling face again, and said to Yun Ruoyan, "Ruoyan is here too! No wonder the old lady smiled so much. happy!"
"Yes, this child Ruoyan is my pistachio." Mrs. Liu made no secret of her love for Yun Ruoyan, "A few girls only Ruoyan has the patience to play cards with me."
Mrs. Liu couldn't help laughing after hearing what Mrs. Liu said, "Ruoyu and Ruoyao have been helping to teach new students in the family college these days. Qianying is about to get married, and they are busy with Xiuniang these days. wedding dress."
As Liu said, his eyes fell on Yun Ruoyan, and he smiled and said: "A few girls, Ruoyan has more free time, and she should spend more time with the old lady."
Don't make Liu's words too obvious. Doesn't it mean that Yun Ruoyan is not doing business
Yun Ruoyan was not annoyed at all, she also smiled and said, "What mother said is that being with the old grandmother in Ruoyan's heart is the most important thing!"
Liu Shi didn't speak, but laughed twice, Yun Ruoyan's words entered her heart.
"Ruoyan is really a filial child." An Shi praised with a dry smile against her will.
Yun Ruoyan reached out and picked up a walnut from the eight-treasure glazed fruit box, smashed it open with a small hammer, took out the nut, carefully cleaned off the debris on the walnut, and handed it to Mrs. Liu.
"Grandmother, here."
Liu took it and put it in her mouth to chew carefully. While eating, she asked An casually, "Is the girl Qianying's marriage settled?"
"It's settled. It will be at the end of next month. August 28th is an auspicious day, suitable for marriage."
An shi replied respectfully, but her eyes glanced at Yun Ruoyan from time to time. She thought to herself, the old and the young, peel one and eat the other, there is a tacit understanding. It seems that this girl often comes to Xianglan Garden to please the old lady.
However, those girls of hers couldn't resist this temper, and Yi Qianying could still pretend to sit here for half an hour.
Yun Ruoyao and Yun Ruoyuruo said that the old man in Xianglan Garden is too strong, if it is not necessary, they would not take the initiative to come.
Liu shi had to reach out after eating three in a row, but Yun Ruoyan refused.
"Grandmother can't be greedy." Yun Ruoyan stretched out her hand and poured a cup of tea to Mrs. Liu, "This walnut is greasy, drink tea to relieve the greasy, if you want to eat it, Ruoyan will peel it for you later."
Mrs. Liu took a sip of the teacup, looked at Mrs. An again, and asked, "At the end of next month, the Kongming Academy will start soon. Has the admission list come down?"
"The list hasn't come down yet, but the admitted children of each family know it in their hearts, and the list is just a formality."
An Shi replied: "Kongming Academy starts in mid-September, just shortly after Qianying married into the Prince's Mansion. When the school starts, he can be admitted to the hospital with His Royal Highness, and the Prince can take care of these girls after he is two grades higher than them. "
After Mrs. An answered Mrs. Liu's question, she began to report some details about the birthday banquet to Mrs. Liu, as well as the list of main guests.
Mrs. Liu usually doesn't care about the affairs of the mansion, but this time Yunlan pays special attention to it. An Shi was still afraid that she would not be considerate, so she reported everything to Liu Shi in detail. If Yun Lan was not satisfied when the time came, she could pull Liu Shi out to block the arrow.
Others don't know that An's heart is small, they only think that she is thoughtful and filial.
Yun Ruoyan frowned inadvertently as she listened to the guest list reported by An's.
Prince, stay away from Qianye.
The Pei family father and son, Pei Yingxiong, Pei Ziao.
Leaving home, Patriarch, Li Tianling.
His Royal Highness King Yu, Li Mo.
Those who should come and those who should not come are invited!
