The reborn sweet girl always wants to escape, but the abstinent prince hugs her and coaxes her!

The day to return to Beijing was set, and Xu Rongrong still had some things to deal with, but it was really inconvenient to get in and out of Yaju, so she found a reason to return to Luo's courtyard.

Compared to the luxurious and elegant Yaju, the crowded Luo Family Courtyard made her feel more comfortable.

Of course, it would be better if Mu Rong could stay behind closed doors.

But Mu Rong naturally didn't think so. He had been waiting in the front hall early in the morning.

There is no other reason, Luo Chen is also here, Xu Rongrong will definitely come.

Sure enough, when Xu Rongrong saw Mu Rong, her eyebrows jumped: "Why doesn't Mr. Marquis recuperate in the room?"

Mu Rong picked up a bowl of tea and said, "Mr. Shu asked me to move more."

After he finished speaking, he continued: "You can discuss your own affairs and it will not hinder me."

Xu Rongrong: "..."

When Luo Chen saw this, he subconsciously retreated.

Mu Rong glanced at him: "It's the coldest time in Jiangnan right now. Is it possible that you want to go to the yard?"

Luo Chen quickly stopped his feet and glanced at Xu Rongrong, waiting for her to give instructions.

Xu Rongrong sat down and said, "Just here."

Luo Chen opened the account book in his hand in front of her and asked, "Miss, are you going back to Beijing?"

Xu Rongrong nodded. The weather today was gloomy, indeed as Mu Rong said, it was particularly cold.

She rubbed her hands subconsciously and looked at the account books.

Seeing this, Mu Rong quietly moved the charcoal basin towards Xu Rongrong.

Xu Rongrong was concentrating on the account books, so naturally she didn't notice the movements of the people around her, but Luo Chen naturally noticed all this.

These days, he always felt that there was something strange between the eldest lady and Marquis Weiyuan, especially today.

But this was a matter between masters after all, and it was not his turn to ask questions.

So he said while Xu Rongrong was looking through the account books: "Then I can't go back to Beijing with the eldest lady. The drug store in Yuzhou City has just been taken over and everything has not been settled yet."

Xu Rongrong nodded: "I called you here today because of this matter. In addition to taking care of the medicine shop here, after the new year, people in Xianzhou City can also go and have a look. I always feel that after Jiangnan has experienced this flood crisis, , it’s an excellent time for all businesses to thrive.”

"Besides..." She hesitated for a moment as she said this.

Mu Rong stood up and walked out.

After he walked away, Xu Rongrong continued: "In addition, you can go to the lower reaches of Guangtong Canal to find two villages. I want to plant some herbs."

Luo Chen was overjoyed when he heard this: "The eldest lady really wants to build a medicine garden in Jiangnan?"

Xu Rongrong smiled and said: "When have I not fulfilled what I told you before? The soil in Jiangnan is different from that in the capital, so they can help each other."

"But...why did the eldest lady avoid Weiyuan Hou?" Luo Chen was a little puzzled when he thought of the situation just now.

"I just don't want others to know about my too many plans." Her business in Jiangnan did not need to avoid Mu Rong, but building Zhuangzi was different.

She always wanted to leave a way out for herself so that she could have a place to stay when she left the capital in the future.

Seeing her solemn expression, Luo Chen knew that this was a serious matter, and naturally he had to go all out to deal with it:

"Please rest assured, young lady, I will handle it properly."

Xu Rongrong smiled and nodded: "You are indeed a proper person."

After saying that, she gave some more instructions, and it was almost noon before Luo Chen left.

Xu Rongrong stood under the eaves and watched him leave.

Luo Chen's steps were brisk. After receiving the instructions from the eldest lady, all his ambitions were just waiting to be realized one by one.

It was completely different from the last time Xu Rongrong saw him in her previous life.

He held Luo Shu's ashes and staggered out of her sight.

Another gust of wind blew, and Xu Rongrong shivered, but the next moment a hand stove was stuffed into her arms.

Before she knew it, Mu Rong was already standing beside her, standing shoulder to shoulder with her.

Xu Rongrong glanced at him and turned back to the house.

Mu Rong followed in: "I didn't expect Rong Rong to be so interested in doing business. After returning to Beijing, I will teach you how to manage the shops under my name, eh?"

"Master Marquis, don't you think it's inappropriate for a woman to show her face outside?"

"It's inappropriate for ordinary women, but you are different." Mu Rong looked at her with a smile, "With your talent, wouldn't it be a pity if you were confined to the back house?"

Xu Rongrong raised her head: "Master Hou is so considerate of women, no wonder Miss Lin is willing to take risks alone for you even though she knows the end of the road."

Finally, Xu Rongrong pierced the layer of window paper that was stuck in her heart.

Mu Rong slowly walked up to her:

"It has nothing to do with me if she follows her own path of death."

Xu Rongrong snorted coldly and did not comment.

"Could it be that Rong Rong still thinks that I killed Mu Wan'er to silence her? To protect Lin Jiaoyue?" He finally brought the topic to that night.

Xu Rongrong raised her head and stared into Mu Rong's eyes: "If Mu Wan'er doesn't die, take her back to the capital and correct Lin Jiaoyue. Although she is the daughter of the minister, hurting the county owner is a serious crime, and Lin Shangshu can't save her. But When Mu Wan'er died, there was no evidence of her death...but she obviously didn't need to die."

"No! She will definitely die." Mu Rong replied, "After I recovered from my injury, I went back and checked the farmer's yard. Apart from Mu Wan'er, there were two other people in the yard that day."

"There are two more people?" Xu Rongrong was surprised.

"Exactly, it should be two women. But they had already escaped before we arrived. The reason why Mu Wan'er stayed and did not harm Wen Yao was to delay, and..."

"And what?"

"And to create a rift between you and me." Mu Rong said frankly, "Obviously, her goal was achieved."

Xu Rongrong lowered his head and recalled that night.

At that time, Mu Wan'er described in great detail how Mu Rong had taken care of Lin Jiaoyue. If she hadn't had to do it all over again, she would have been furious.

Seeing that she was silent for a long time, Mu Rong continued:

"If my prediction is correct, the reason why she held us back was to let someone more important to her escape. Therefore, Lin Jiaoyue must have been in Yuzhou that night. Only in this way can she explain her behavior."

"That day, when we appeared in the small courtyard, the Mu Wan'er we saw was already an abandoned child who was destined to die. Even if I didn't take action, she would still die to hide what Lin Jiaoyue had done."

After saying that, Mu Rong stretched out his hand and wrapped Xu Rongrong's hand in his palm: "Rongrong, you believe me."

Xu Rongrong raised her head and looked at him: "Master Hou, you don't have to be like this. No matter what they did between master and servant, no matter what the truth is, I will definitely avenge Lin Jiaoyue for hurting Wen Yao."

"I know." Mu Rong replied, "I just don't want to cause any more misunderstandings between you and me."

Xu Rongrong didn't answer.

But her attitude was no longer as decisive as before. For Mu Rong, it was enough for her to be like this.

He raised the corners of his lips: "So, can Rong Rong take me back to Beijing?"

Xu Rongrong: "..."
