Du Ruo covered his face and ran back to his little lotus courtyard in grievance.
Xiao Heyuan was close to Lu Lingjun's yard, and Liu Qingping saw her on the way.
"Isn't that Du Ruo? What's wrong with her?"
"have no idea."
"Have a look."
Liu Qingping arrived at Du Ruo's Xiaoheyuan.
Du Ruo shed tears of grievance.
"Du Ruo, what's wrong with you?"
Hearing the sound, Du Ruo quickly wiped away her tears. She turned around with red eyes and saw Liu Qingping coming in with someone.
When they first met, they were both young girls waiting to be married, and they could be considered old friends.
"Who did you call to bully? I'll talk to my eldest sister and ask her to stand up for you." Liu Qingping walked up to her and said.
After she said this, Du Ruo felt sour in his heart, and felt that he had no one to rely on.
Liu Qingping has the support of her eldest sister, who is the young lady of the Hou Mansion, and can move her out at every turn. As for her, she really has nothing.
"What happened to your face? Who slapped you?" Liu Qingping noticed the slap mark on Du Ruo's face and couldn't help shouting.
Du Ruo turned her face away. Seeing her coy look, Liu Qingping couldn't help but said, "If you have anything else to hide from me, just tell me!"
Du Ruo, whose eyes were half-lidded, suddenly lit up, "Qingping, how long have you lived in the Hou Mansion?"
"About ten days."
"Then can I have dinner with you these days?"
"Sure." Liu Qingping agreed without hesitation.
That night, she took Du Ruo to Lu Lingjun's yard to have dinner together.
Lu Lingjun was surprised when she saw Du Ruo coming to her place, so Liu Qingping took the initiative to say so.
"Sister, I invite A Ruo to have dinner with me these days."
After Liu Qingping said this, Lu Lingjun naturally didn't say anything, so she nodded in acquiescence.
She saw Du Ruo wearing a face towel, "What's wrong with your face?"
"Nothing." Du Ruo shook his head.
"Have someone beat her up." Liu Qingping said for her.
"Qingping, I'm fine, don't talk nonsense." Du Ruo pulled Liu Qingping.
Lu Lingjun winked at Xiaoqin, "What's going on?"
Xiaoqin told what happened at the door just now.
Du Ruo and Linglong had an argument at the door. Du Ruo cursed someone, but Cheng Yunshuo heard it and slapped her on the spot.
After Xiaoqin finished speaking, Du Ruo said, "Young madam, this is my fault. I shouldn't have cursed people, I should have beaten them."
"Aruo, you just scolded someone. Brother-in-law, he went too far. He beat you like this." Liu Qingping said.
After listening to what these two people said, Lu Lingjun said, "Okay, let's sit down and eat."
She didn't say who should be punished or not, she just let it go and just let it go.
Because this was punished by Cheng Yunshuo, she couldn't interfere.
Then there was Du Ruo. She glanced at Du Ruo who was sitting down to eat together, smiled lightly and said nothing.
She didn't care, but Liu Qingping had a sense of justice and picked up food for Du Ruo. She took good care of her and told her to eat well.
For three days in a row, Du Ruo and Liu Qingping had dinner at Lu Lingyun's place.
On the night of the third day, Cheng Yunshuo came over.
In order to avoid suspicion these days, he tried to come to Lu Lingjun's yard as little as possible, but after all, it was his own home, and he wanted to come to see his children, so today he came to have dinner together.
When he came today, he saw Du Ruo sitting at the dinner table wearing a hijab.
The moment he saw Du Ruo, he was slightly startled. Liu Qingping on the side couldn't help but said, "Brother-in-law, you are here, who are you looking at? Don't you remember that you have a newly married aunt?"
There was a hint of anger in her tone.
There seems to be some injustice.
Cheng Yunshuo's face felt awkward for a moment.
Lu Lingjun said at this time, "You are tired after a long day of work. Come sit down and eat."
"Um."
Cheng Yunshuo hurriedly took his seat.
At the small round table, Lu Lingjun had Liu Qingping on one side and Du Ruo on the other. Cheng Yunshuo definitely couldn't sit at Liu Qingping's place. Du Ruo stood up with great discernment at this time.
"Your Majesty, I will serve you to eat."
"Aruo, just add a stool."
"No, I am a concubine," Du Ruo looked at Cheng Yunshuo with a pair of eyes, a little aggrieved, "As a concubine, you have to serve the master and mistress."
Yu Qingping: “...”
Something didn't sound right to her.
Du Ruodu followed her and ate at Lu Lingyun's place for three days, but he didn't see her following any rules!
Cheng Yunshuo on the other side listened to Du Ruo's words, and felt an unspeakable feeling in his heart for a moment, "Aruo, you are also sitting, just like before, I don't need you to serve me."
"How can this be possible?" Du Ruo lowered his eyes, "When I marry into the Marquis Mansion as a concubine, I must abide by the rules of being a concubine. It will never be the same as before."
These words made Cheng Yunshuo feel very upset.
He immediately thought of the Du Ruo who used to be so willful, unrestrained and free, even if she was a little unruly, she was still a bit cute, but now she looked like a wronged little daughter-in-law.
They even called themselves concubines one by one.
This is how Cheng Yunshuo feels.
He brought Du Ruona into the house in the first place just to be responsible for her, not to let her suffer.
At this time, he noticed the hijab on her face and said, "What's wrong with your face? Why are you still wearing a hijab?"
"Brother-in-law, the mark from your last slap hasn't gone away yet!" Liu Qingping helped Du Ruo speak again.
Du Ruo said again, "It's okay, Qingping, please stop talking. I'm not squeamish. I'll be fine soon."
Yu Qingping: “...”
What she said made her feel as uncomfortable as if she had swallowed a fly.
Liu Qingping finally realized what was strange about Du Ruo's words today.
What do you mean, stop talking!
She kept talking for her, but Du Ruo didn't appreciate it and told her not to interrupt.
It makes her look like someone who stirs up trouble, who are these people!
Cheng Yunshuo on the side felt that he couldn't finish the meal.
He stood up first and said, "Lingyun, I still have some business to deal with. You guys eat first and I'll go back to eat."
After he finished speaking, he stood up and left.
Du Ruo, who was standing nearby, watched him leave and followed him, "I won't eat either."
After Du Ruo followed Cheng Yunshuo and left, Liu Qingping put down her chopsticks angrily, "Then what does Du Ruo mean? I kept helping her, but she kept trying to make trouble! She made me feel like a joke. She did all the good guys and bad guys. I did it all!"
Lu Lingjun, who was sitting at the main seat throughout the process, took a sip of hot soup and smiled lightly, "You just realized it now?"
"Big sister!" Liu Qingping's eyes widened fiercely, "Du Ruo had planned this early in the morning?"
Lu Lingjun smiled softly, "Just look at how long she has been wearing the hijab?"
Liu Qingping completely understood.
Liu Qingping was not stupid, she just subconsciously regarded Du Ruo as a friend. She had no conflict of interest with her, so she just helped her without warning.
Du Ruo just asked her if he could have dinner with her at first. What was not possible for her?
Unexpectedly, it turned out that Du Ruo was not eyeing Lu Lingjun's dining table, but meeting Cheng Yunshuo while eating at Lu Lingjun's place!
