Abandoned Woman Busy Farming

Ji Shuo was initially cowardly, but later she stood up bravely, which also gave Bai Ruozhu a good impression of her.

"She is very kind and doesn't mind me being like this." Xu Huilin raised his prosthetic arm, meaning that he was a person without arms.

Bai Ruozhu's heart hurt, and she said hurriedly: "You are so kind, but I'm afraid that Grandma Qian and the others won't agree with you marrying Ji Shu."

Xu Huilin laughed, "I said I liked them and they agreed immediately. Now they don't have any requirements for me. They just hope that I can live a peaceful life."

Bai Ruozhu was really happy for him and asked, "When will the wedding reception be held? I wonder if I can make it."

Speaking of this, Xu Huilin looked slightly downcast, "We still have to wait and see. I don't know how long it will take for me to enter Beijing this time."

"Speaking of which, I was quite surprised to see your letter before. Why did you come to Beijing this time?" Bai Ruozhu asked.

Xu Huilin's smile was a little bitter, "It's nothing. It's just that according to the rules, the children of city lords from all over the country have to come to the capital to serve. In the past, my father was only a son of Brother Hong, and he was young, so he didn't go to the capital specifically. But now the world has just been settled. , our Meng family also breaks the rules."

Bai Ruozhu understood that this was similar to the existence of protons, but...

She doesn't understand politics, but she can't think about it in detail. Thinking about it makes her feel too realistic and cruel.

There is no real trust between the monarch and his ministers, and they can only use some means to manipulate and blackmail.

"My family didn't approve of my coming. Brother Hong was still clamoring to come, and I finally convinced them. It's just that I feel wronged. Ji Shuo wants to wait for me. If I want to stay in Beijing for a long time, I'll see if I can She and I built a separate mansion in the capital," Xu Huilin said.

Bai Ruozhu nodded, "What about Ji Bao? Didn't he become an official? He should be more willing to go to Beijing, right?"

"He suffered such a big blow before, but things have calmed down a lot. The master of the Ji family no longer pursues fame and wealth. He just plans to spend his days in peace in Beiyu City."

Bai Ruozhu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. There were some things she couldn't ask out loud. She was worried that the Ji family would want to take advantage of the Meng family's connections. Originally, it was normal for in-laws to help each other, but she couldn't bear Xu Huilin being taken advantage of.

Now it seems that the Ji family has seen through a lot, and she can feel relieved.

After a while, Jiang Yichun rushed back after receiving the letter. When he met Xu Hui, the two brothers hugged each other, and they were both very emotional.

"You guys chat first, I'll tell the kitchen to add some dishes that Senior Brother Fox likes." Bai Ruozhu knew they had something to say and immediately avoided going out.

When they were eating, their eyes were a little red, probably because Jiang Yichun mentioned his physical condition, and both of them were a little sentimental.

Xu Huilin stayed at the Bai Mansion at night. In his words, he relied on the Bai family in Beiyu, and he couldn't change this rule in the capital. Bai Ruozhu naturally had no objection. Xu Huilin lived closer, she It's better to feel more at ease.

On the next day, Bai Ruozhu brought Jian Qi and Yi Zi into the palace.

The post had been submitted before. Even if she didn't plan to take up a post in the palace when she came back this time, she still had to take time to visit Le Bin.

"Ruozhu, it's true that you came back these days before you came to see me. I almost sent someone to call you over." There was a hint of complaint in Le Bin's tone, but she had a sincere smile on her face. She obviously saw Bai Ruozhu was particularly happy.

"I also wanted to enter the palace earlier, but look at all the chaos before. I didn't even dare to leave the door." Bai Ruozhu said helplessly.

Although Le Bin was in a deep palace, she often asked people to talk about outside affairs because she had nothing to do. The affairs of Du Zhongshu and Bai Ruozhu were widely spread, so it was impossible for her not to know about them.

"I really succumb to that person. To ruin your reputation, you pretend to be a lover. It's really disgusting!" Le Bin said, shaking her head.

Bai Ruozhu was a little surprised by how straightforward she spoke now. If it were in the past, Le Bin would mostly say that what Prince Du did was inappropriate, instead of saying "disgusting" so directly.

It seems that Le Bin has made great progress.

"Fortunately, everyone in Beijing now knows his true face." Bai Ruozhu said with a smile.

"I heard that the emperor wanted to send you and Mr. Jiang out to sea to explore the maritime trade route. Isn't it too dangerous? I really don't want you to go. If you stay in the capital, I can have someone to talk to." Le Bin pulled Bai Ruozhu's hand. Hand, he said with some emotion.

"I can rest assured that he can go to me on his own, so I have no choice but to ask the emperor to talk to the emperor." Bai Ruozhu said and laughed.

Le Bin's face turned red at her teasing, then she stepped back and asked in a low voice: "Do you have any news about the Queen Mother?"

Bai Ruozhu also wanted to find an opportunity to talk to her about this. She told the story of how she met the Queen Mother, but she didn't specify where it was, nor did she say the name of the restaurant opened by the Queen Mother.

It's not that she doesn't trust Le Bin, it's just that she's worried that Le Bin has a simple mind and it would be bad if someone with bad intentions deceives her.

"I feel relieved knowing that they live a comfortable life." Le Bin's eyes were full of envy as she spoke. What she longed for most in her heart was a life like the Queen Mother's and hers, right?

It's a pity that the one I love is an emperor, and I have no chance to live with her in this ordinary life.

"How are you doing recently? Let me take your pulse." Bai Ruozhu said.

"Okay." Le Bin stretched out her wrist.

Bai Ruozhu felt her pulse and quickly withdrew his hand, "My body is well maintained, which also has something to do with her good mood."

Le Bin laughed, stood up and said, "You haven't seen Xi'er for a long time. You won't recognize him now. Come on, I'll take you to see him."

"Okay, children change every day. I can hardly remember what Prince Xi looks like." Bai Ruozhu followed her with a smile.

Soon they arrived at Prince Xi's house. The nanny was holding him and humming a song. The little guy had just fallen asleep and spit bubbles out of his mouth, which was particularly cute.

Bai Ruozhu and Le Bin couldn't help laughing, but they covered their mouths and laughed for fear of waking up the child.

"I don't know what will happen to Xi'er in the future. I'm always worried about the curse on him." Le Bin lowered her voice and said.

"I will show it to Prince Xi, and I will also find someone to help him remove the curse." Bai Ruozhu felt a little regretful. If Master Pudeng was still alive, he would definitely be able to help Prince Xi.

"Sorry to trouble you." Le Bin said gratefully.

Bai Ruozhu went over and gently touched Prince Xi's little hand. Suddenly, her pupils shrank, but she soon regained her composure. After a while, she put down Prince Xi's little hand, turned around and said to Le Bin, "Prince Xi is in good health. She’s so chubby and cute.”

Le Bin became happy, "He can eat and sleep, and the emperor said he is lucky."

Bai Ruozhu chatted with Le Bin for a few more words, then left, saying that she was going to the female doctor's office for a visit. She hadn't seen her for a few days, and she missed Tian Fang and the other female doctors.
