Chapter 213: The Heroine Whose Luck Was Taken Away
As she spoke, she choked up and reached out to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes.
"Wan Niang, I've returned to the Ye family now, but I miss the days when we depended on each other even more. Although we had endless rough work to do every day, we supported each other, so I wasn't afraid. During these days back at the Ye family, I've had nightmares every day. I dreamed that I was beaten and bullied for a bite of food again."
"Wan Niang, the Ye family arranged a marriage for me. I don't really like it, but I don't have the right to refuse. Wan Niang, this is the first time I feel how difficult life is. I miss you."
……
Jiang Wuchen was originally just curious and wanted to know if she was really here to pay tribute to her deceased relatives, but when he saw her like this, he felt a little sorry for her.
He originally thought that only people like him could be chess pieces, but he didn't expect that everyone in the world, regardless of status, could become a chess piece.
Now, he was more certain of his inner thoughts.
He felt that this girl was probably a chess piece that the Ye family had found to replace their own daughter and marry him.
Forget it, just treat her well after marrying her.
If she met a man of her dreams that day, he could adopt her as his sister and give her a generous dowry, which could be considered as compensation for accidentally harming her.
Jiang Wuchen had already made plans, but there was still a sense of loss deep in her heart. She was indeed different from those noble ladies.
……
Golden Crow sinks to the west
On the way back in the carriage, Ye Ruoxing carefully applied maintenance oil on her arms. She didn't want her body to be covered with these ugly lines all the time.
She has always pursued refinement and does not allow any imperfection on her body.
The system asked her, "Tell me quickly, why did Jiang Wuchen come here today?"
Fox smiled wickedly. After applying the oil, she found a comfortable position to lie down, and then she slowly said: "It's very simple. Because there is a woman living next door who has bad intentions towards him, he naturally thinks that the women who come here have improper thoughts about him. Although he is devoted to Buddhism, he also has a male desire to conquer. He must want to come and see if I am really here to pay tribute to the deceased. Besides, I am still from the Ye family. I heard that the emperor gave Ye Furong to him, so he must want to come and see me."
The system asked again, "But didn't you say before that Wan Niang was just a fabrication? Why did you just...?"
"Of course it's all just acting." Fox smiled as she grabbed a grape and put it to her mouth. Her eyes sparkled as she said cunningly, "There are so many tablets there, who knows who is Wanniang? Besides, he only cares about whether I'm really here to pay my respects. He won't bother to check who I'm paying my respects to or whether they really exist. So I can say whatever I want."
system:……
Sure enough, this is the usual operation of this cunning fox.
……
Return to the Ye family
Ye Ruoxing felt even more depressed than when she was in front of the tablet just now. She had to face the deadpan group of the Ye family again.
As soon as I stepped into the mansion, I saw Ye Yichen, Ye Furong and a figure with his back to Ye Ruoxing. The three of them were sitting in the small garden in the yard, seemingly chatting and laughing.
Ye Ruoxing originally didn't want to pay attention to them, but just as she was about to pretend not to see them, she was stopped by Ye Yichen when she passed by them.
When he saw Ye Ruoxing coming back from outside, his brows were already furrowed. He asked, "Where did you go? Why did you take so long to come back?"
Ye Ruoxing suppressed her unhappiness, turned around and bowed respectfully, then simply replied, "This servant greets the young master. Today, this servant went out to pay respects to an old friend. I have already informed the master of this matter in advance."
Hearing her call him that again, Ye Yichen was furious. He just frowned and said, "Ye Ruoxing, please speak properly and don't force me to scold you in front of Huan Shu."
Ye Ruoxing just found it funny. He was clearly scolding her as soon as he opened his mouth just now. Why should he wait any longer?
Chen Huanshu also turned his head to look at Ye Ruoxing.
He knew Ye Ruoxing. Ye Ruoxing used to be lively and cheerful. He liked this little girl since he was a child.
Every time, she would follow him and pester him, calling him Brother Huan Shu.
He doted on her too much and would almost always agree to her requests.
During these years at the border, he would think of her from time to time. Every time he took out the sachet she gave him, that brilliant smile would appear in front of his eyes.
However, after just a few years, she seemed like a different person.
All her liveliness and cheerfulness were gone, replaced by a lifeless feeling, as if her soul had been sucked out.
He didn't know why such a change happened, but he comforted himself that maybe she was in a bad mood recently.
"Xiao Xing'er." He waved at her as usual and said with a smile, "Come here quickly. Brother Huanshu has returned from the border this time and brought you some goodies. You're sure to like them."
Minister Huan Shu
The original owner had this person in his memory, and when he recalled other people, he felt painful.
The original owner was happy only when he recalled his grandmother and him.
He is the legitimate son of General Chen and the young general of Fenglangjuxu. Not only is he proficient in both civil and military strategies, he is also polite and gentle in his dealings with others.
What kind of girl wouldn't like a man like this?
The fox sighed. The original owner finally didn't wait for her major general to come back, just a little bit short.
She dressed respectfully and came to the pavilion, bowing first.
"This servant greets the young lady, the young master, and..." She paused, turned deliberately towards Chen Huanshu, and said slowly, "Also, General Chen."
Seeing her so indifferent and distant, Ye Yichen got angry.
He corrected her, "Ye Ruoxing, even if you want to throw a tantrum, now is not the time."
When Chen Shuhuan heard her call him like this, there was an unconcealable loss in his eyes, but his gaze soon became distressed.
How come his little Xing'er has become so thin? And what's with the faintly visible yet shocking scar on her sleeve?
"Who bullied you?" Chen Shuhuan's mood suddenly dropped. His eyes were always on Ye Ruoxing's hand. His little Xing'er must be in great pain from such a wound.
She was such a delicate little girl. Normally, she would cry in pain if her fingers were slightly touched. How could she get injured like this?
"Snapped!"
Because he was too excited, he crushed the teacup in his hand, and his eyes turned bloodshot instantly. Ye Yichen even felt murderous intent from him.
Ye Ruoxing knew that he was asking about the scars on her hands again. She quickly glanced at Ye Yichen and Ye Furong, and then replied in a low voice, "Thank you for your concern, General Chen. This was all caused by me accidentally touching myself."
Now it was Ye Yichen and Ye Furong's turn to be nervous.
Goodnight
