In the middle of the sixth month of the lunar calendar, Li Haitang had been away for more than ten days. He didn't know where he was or what route he took. He wanted to send a letter, but he couldn't find a place to receive it.

What's more, Zhang Ruyi wants to deal with it by herself and get through the current predicament. Maybe in a certain year and a certain month, when she mentions what happened right now, she can lightly describe it without being overly sad.

"Yeah, it's good that Haitang is here."

Lan Yi also agrees that Li Haitang is the backbone of the sisters, and she sees everything quite thoroughly. If she knows what happened, she will be able to think of a solution as soon as possible.

People can't be contacted temporarily, they can only rely on themselves.

"Lan Yi, thanks to the busy schedule of you and Ji Qiu these days, it has made it difficult for the two of you as husband and wife."

Zhang Ruyi is very sorry for this, Lan Yi's son has not yet been weaned, it is the time of clinging, for her, Lan Yi did not see his son for a while.

"Miss, how can you say that?"

Lan Yi shook her head, although the contract of sale was returned by her own lady, but she is the lady's servant girl and also a sister, this point will never change in her life.

If it wasn't for the kindness of the madam, she would have starved to death long ago. It is impossible for her to grow up with the young lady and live a comfortable life for so many years.

Zhang Ruyi is arrogant and has the temper of a young lady, but she rarely beats and scolds her servants. Lanyi makes mistakes by herself, and she relies on Zhang Ruyi to help cover them up.

Lan Yi thought of many things. At that time, they were still in Zhang's Mansion in Kyoto. She was careless and broke the old lady's favorite jade bracelet. It was her own lady who took the initiative to stand up and take the blame for her.

For this reason, the old lady disliked her even more, and locked her up in the Zhang Family Ancestral Hall, where she knelt for three days and three nights.

For three days and three nights, without a drop of water, when Lan Yi went to pick up her young lady, her intestines were twisted and she cried so much that she almost flooded the whole house.

"Lanyi, don't cry. Your young lady is fine, she's lucky."

At that time, Zhang Ruyi had a pale face and comforted Lan Yi weakly.

"Miss, why do you want to admit it for the servants? One person does things and one person is responsible."

Lan Yi wiped her tears with her sleeves, saying so.

"Silly, that's my grandmother's favorite bracelet. I broke it, but I just knelt for a few days. If you were you, you would have to be beaten to death."

Zhang Ruyi knew that her grandmother was a person, the head of the house, and the method of deterring the servants was to kill her with a stick, in order to show her authority. Grandma didn't like her anyway, just a little more, so what?

From then on, Lan Yi became more loyal to Zhang Ruyi, and Miss was always the most important person in her heart.

The past was unbearable, and every time Lan Yi thought about it, she couldn't hold back her tears. She picked up the small bowl on the table, without any explanation, and fed all the white fungus and lotus seed soup into her lady's stomach.

"Miss, I can't stay here any longer, this servant will go away with you."

Lan Yi gritted his teeth and made a difficult decision. She owed the lady too much, and she couldn't repay it in her whole life.

"puff…"

Zhang Ruyi almost squirted out the lotus seed soup, then twitched the corners of her mouth, showing a smile uglier than crying, "You, you, do you still want to play the scene of abandoning your husband and son?"

Blue clothes drooping eyes, of course she was reluctant to part with it, but the miss would not be able to live without her, and my uncle was that kind of person.

This is a sad place, the more you stay, the more sad you will be.

She hopes that Zhang Ruyi can find a place that no one knows, untie the knot in her heart, and slowly heal the wound.

Flesh wounds will scab after applying medicine after bleeding, but how long will it take for heart wounds to heal?

"Lanyi, remember, when you get married, you have to come to your own little family first, and make a clear distinction between priorities."

Zhang Ruyi held Lan Yi's hand and said seriously, "Ji Qiu and the fat boy are the most important people to you, followed by me, do you understand?"

"But…"

Lan Yi wanted to refute, but was stopped by Zhang Ruyi, thankfully he didn't let Ji Qiu hear some words, Lan Yi was full of thoughts of loyal servants, so he had to get over it.

After a few days of sadness, Zhang Ruyi's mood gradually became clearer. Haitang always said that people have joys and sorrows, and the moon has cloudy and sunny cycles.

The people around, everyone admired Li Haitang, but they didn't know that her happy life was also built on the basis of blood and tears. She also survived those gloomy years.

People always have birth, old age, sickness and death, and Lu's mother just moved ahead of time. As for her child who has no fate, she only hopes to be born in a good family in the next life.

In the future... there will be children in the future.

Zhang Ruyi told herself to face it bravely, to be optimistic, and to be tolerant to others, but someone was destined not to let her get what she wanted.

Ji Qiu talked to Lu Yuanqing, but Lu Yuanqing ignored him, and rushed to Li Haitang's room with big strides.

"Uncle, you..."

Lan Yi only felt that Lu Yuanqing was a little different, but he couldn't say exactly what was different, but he just felt a little creepy.

"get out."

Lu Yuanqing opened the door curtain and pushed people away with a calm tone, which had never happened before.

"Lu Yuanqing, what do you mean?"

Zhang Ruyi sat up, squinted her eyes, "Lanyi has been busy for several days, and can't sleep at night, pay attention to your attitude when you speak."

Even if the husband and wife have something to say, there is no need to use such a tone, Lan Yi is no longer her maid.

"Miss, you and my uncle have a good talk."

Lan Yi didn't say anything, walked out the door, and lingered at the door again, feeling worried.

She found Ji Qiu, took Ji Qiu's arm, and asked in a low voice, "Husband, how are you talking with him?"

Scholars should be more sensible. Lu Yuanqing was brought up by a widowed mother, and outsiders can understand the hardships involved. Moreover, after her daughter got married, she got along well with Lu's mother, and she was not unfilial.

"Let's wait outside."

Ji Qiu didn't explain, but the expression on his face proved that the conversation wasn't very good.

In fact, Lan Yi didn't understand. He just asked Lu Yuanqing to pay more attention to his own lady who lost her baby. Is there a problem with this? Miss is pregnant with his flesh and blood!

The two were at the door, not daring to stay away, while inside the house, Zhang Ruyi was trying to relax herself, not thinking about the scene where her skirt was stained red with blood.

"Husband, sorry, my mother-in-law is gone, I know you are having a hard time, and so am I, and I..."

Zhang Ruyi wanted to open up, but was interrupted by Lu Yuanqing's cold voice.

Lu Yuanqing sneered, his face trembled, and his tone was sharp, "Zhang Ruyi, don't you think that you are a bastard?"

"you…"

The sudden attack made Zhang Ruyi almost dizzy, and suddenly thought that she had heard wrong.

"Don't you think you are a broom star?"

Lu Yuanqing continued to repeat that people like Zhang Ruyi would be unlucky if they got involved. Zeng Yan's family was ruined, and now he lost his only mother. Now he has nothing. All the hard work in the past was just to glorify the ancestors, let his mother live a good life, and the hard work will be rewarded. What about now?
