joy town gl

Bingzhou is located on the northwest side of the hinterland of the Central Plains. The weather gradually becomes cold in late autumn, and there have been several snowfalls before the twelfth lunar month in winter.

"Let's stop here first." At the gate of the backyard of the Bingzhou mansion, Ruan Shuyue took out a ticket and gave it to the team leader who pressed the car: "It's all hard work. For the rest, please eat a hot pot to drive away the cold."

"Oh! It's been a long time." The leader took the money and couldn't stop cupping his hands to thank them. After they left, Ruan Shuyue rushed to greet them, and a dozen servants came out to transport the cars into the mansion one by one.

"Have you sent them all to the warehouse to get everything ready?"

"Miss Yue, don't worry, Miku has already spread plant ash and sprinkled pepper."

Ruan Shuyue nodded reassuringly. When Tang Chong came back from the outside, he saw her directing everyone to carry things here.

"Sister Yue, Brother Tang's food has arrived?"

"That's right, brother Tang sent a letter saying that there might be a famine this year, so I sent more specially."

Tang Chong looked at the carts of grain entering the door, and couldn't help feeling: "I really can't see that Brother Tang is so good at doing business."

Of course, this cartload of food was not sent all the way from Anzhou.Just at the beginning of the year, the branch of Chengyi Grain Line had opened to Suizhou City next to Bingzhou.Ever since Tang Chong knew the identity of Lu Tang as the princess, he admired this former "brother" even more. It's hard not to admire the delicate and expensive little princess who has worked hard to become a wealthy businessman in the south of the Yangtze River.

"It's embarrassing for them." Ruan Shuyue knew a little better than Tang Chong. After all, Cheng Yi also invested money to participate. Tang Yi and San Niang not only had to support the inn, but also secretly maintained the food store.

"Xiao Tang, when will the young master come back?"

Tang Chong counted with his fingers, "It takes seven or eight days to come and go, and we still have to talk about things. The young master has been away for half a month, and there will be another ten days at most?"

In the early morning of the next day, Ruan Shuyue knocked on the door of Tang Chong and Yu'er's room, "Xiao Tang, I have something to do, please tell her when the young master comes back."

"Where are you going?" Tang Chong stopped in front of the people, "Young Master asked me to protect you, but she didn't take me with you when you went out this time."

Ruan Shuyue had no choice but to look at Lan Yu'er behind her.

"Sister Yue, you and Xiao Chong can rest assured, I will tell her when the young master comes back."

It has been ten days since Yuan Yi came back from Huzhou.After returning to the mansion, while explaining the matter to Liang Zhong, she walked through the hall and entered the courtyard, and went straight to the back house, but still did not see Ruan Shuyue coming out.Strange, where did the person I saw when I opened the door go today?

"Xiao Tang?" He called Tang Chong, but still no one came.She called the guard at the side, "Where are Xiao Tang and Miss Yue?"

"Young master?" Lan Yu'er entered from the back hall at this time, and bowed first when she saw Yuan Yi.Seeing that she seemed to have something to say to him, Yuan Yi immediately backed away.

"Where's Shu Yue? Something happened while I was away?"

Lan Yu'er quickly shook her head, "Everything is fine, but sister Yue said not long ago that she would go to Bianzhou, so Xiao Chong was worried and went with her."

"Bianzhou?" Yuan Yi frowned, "Where is she going?"

"Sister Yue didn't say anything specific, she just said that if you come back, let me tell you that Bianzhou is her hometown, so you don't have to worry."

Only then did Yuan Yi know that Ruan Shuyue was from Bianzhou, "Did she say when she would come back?"

"It can range from ten days to more than twenty days. Sister Yue said it will never exceed a month."

Yuan Yi didn't ask any more questions, but let people go back first.After five days in a row, Ruan Shuyue and the others still did not come back, so she couldn't sit still.They found Liang Yi and told him, "Leave now and go to the Ruan's house in Bianzhou. No matter what happens to Miss Yue, you must protect her and Xiao Tang to return safely."

"Yes! Young Master." Liang Yi took the order and set off immediately.However, as soon as he left, Ruan Shuyue returned with Tang Chong in the next day.

"Yuer Yuer! I'm back, look." Tang Chong excitedly ran ahead and shouted as soon as he entered the inner courtyard.

"What?" Lan Yu'er tugged at her sleeve up and down and looked it up and down, making sure that she had come back without any bumps, so she went to look at the things in her hand in peace.

"Sister Yue bought it for you, and she said you would like it." Tang Chong held a small burden, and while unpacking it, he smiled at Yuan Yi who came out from behind: "Young master, we are back. Big and lots of fun."

Ruan Shuyue came in after her, and Yuan Yi stepped forward: "Where have you been?"

Ruan Shuyue: "Is everything going well?"

Ruan Shuyue smiled, it was rare to see Yuan Yi anxious, although she consciously hid it well.

"I brought you some special products, you can try it." Ruan Shuyue stepped forward and pulled Yuan Yi's wrist, and whispered: "Let's go back to the room and talk about it."

Yuan Yi took a look at Tang Chong who was happily talking to Lan Yu'er, and followed Ruan Shuyue back to the room.

"This is Bianzhou's unique sugar cake. It's made from red sugar cane. It tastes very different." Before Yuan Yi could speak, something soft was screwed into his mouth.Well, the taste is not bad. "Did you go back to Bianzhou because of something at home?"

"There's nothing wrong at home, but you have something to do." Seeing her confused look, Ruan Shuyue poured herself a glass of water, but she didn't sleep at all after rushing all the way back. "When you went to Huzhou, Tang Yi's grain arrived."

Yuan Yi nodded, indicating that she knew about it.

"I was thinking, not to mention the hard work of the two of them, I'm afraid that one day it will be hard to avoid. After all, Tang Yi and San Niang's business has to be managed slowly, and they are young."

Yuan Yi watched as she lifted the small box she had taken from Tang Chong by her feet to the table, and opened the bag that she carried with her. "So I went back to the old house and asked for my grandfather's support."

The chewing movement stopped, and Yuan Yi couldn't help but stare at the box of gold and the package full of banknotes on the table. "you!"

"Don't worry, I didn't go into details about you."

"Shu Yue..."

"Grandfather has already agreed to support your career. If you are short of money in the future, the Ruan family in Bianzhou will also be your backing."

Yuan Yi didn't know what to say, moved his mouth, and swallowed the pastry in his mouth, "How could grandfather agree?"

The eldest lady blushed slightly at this point, and pointed at the corner of the nearby ticket on the table, Ruan Shuyue cleared her throat: "Oh, anyway, I didn't reveal your whereabouts."

"It's not Shuyue, you, my grandfather supports me, does he know what we are doing? Then he agrees with you to come back?"

Seeing that she was determined to break the casserole, she knew that this matter could not be concealed, Ruan Shuyue simply spread her hands, "I didn't explain the details, but the story of my escaping marriage and leaving home spread to my hometown somehow, and my grandfather left me as soon as I went back." He stopped, and said that the marriage my father found was unreliable, and he wanted to marry me in Bianzhou. I have no choice..."

"And then?" Seeing people hesitating, Yuan Yi's heart skipped a beat, and his brows trembled slightly: "You won't say I'm a bandit, and then detain you as Mrs. Yazhai, right?" It's not that she has a rich imagination, It's just that it was so unexpected.

"What!" The eldest lady raised her head, then pursed her lips again, "You are right in thinking so."

"what?"

"Oh! I just said that I have a sweetheart. She is a person who does great things. I will not marry her in my life, but now I am short of money and food. I begged my grandpa to sue my grandma. Anyway, I finally agreed to this matter." He didn't lie, he begged his grandpa and sued his grandma again, and spent a lot of time in the Ruan family's old house, until the two elders were exhausted.

"Shu Yue, I will find a solution for money matters, you don't have to do this for me." Yuan Yi couldn't bear it in her heart, she was a rich lady from an official family, not to mention she was displaced for herself, and she did it like this, what would she do? Pay back.

"Anyway, the money is already here. My grandfather said, this is my dowry." The eldest lady said in a lower voice, "But this dowry is sustainable, and there will be more if there is not enough in the future." Then she raised her voice again. Picking up the tone, he said confidently: "You will use the money if I give you. Don't tell me you're going to exhaust Tang Yisanniang to death? You don't feel sorry for your sister anymore."

Yuan Yi sighed softly, gathered up and fastened the tickets in the bundle little by little, and closed the small box again.After doing this, she was silent for a while, while Ruan Shuyue watched her frown furrowed and then relaxed.

"Shu Yue." After a while, Yuan Yifang said slowly, "Lang Yuanyi will never let you down in this life."

Ruan Shuyue stared at her fixedly, then raised her face, and smiled brightly like spring light melting the deep winter snow: "I know."

It has been five days since Liang Yi came back from Bianzhou, and he hastened all the way, wishing he could fly back to Bingzhou.

"My lord, my lord!" As soon as he entered the courtyard, he yelled at the top of his voice, "No, we have to send some people to find Miss Yue, she!" Liang Yi rushed into the hall, and everyone in the room looked up at him at the same time. , Ruan Shuyue was sitting on the chair next to Yuan Yi, looking at him at this time, "What's wrong with me?"

"Miss Moon! Didn't you run away?"

"Ah?" Ruan Shuyue was baffled by his question, Yuan Yi waved at him: "Yue'er came back the second day after you left, and she didn't go because she wanted to send someone to look for you but was afraid of going wrong."

Liang Yi nodded in a daze, then nodded again, looking at Ruan Shuyue and then at his elder son. "I'm relieved that Miss Yue can escape back."

Yuan Yi heard something wrong in his words, "Escape back?"

Ruan Shuyue cleared her throat, trying to signal Liang Yi not to speak, but she didn't even see him pouring water on the table to quench his thirst.This is not over yet, Liang Yi took a sip of water, and then bowed respectfully to Yuan Yi: "My son, I found out as soon as I arrived in Bianzhou City, saying that the little granddaughter of Ruan Yuanwai was arrested and brought back, and then returned He betrayed his family and eloped with someone else, and took away a lot of money from the family. Member Ruan's serious illness caused him to cut off relations with her." Liang Yi said seriously, and Ruan Shuyue, who was listening directly, wanted to rush up and cover his mouth.Is this person stupid?

In addition to Tang Chong, Liang Zhong and a former family general of the Han Palace were present in the hall. Hearing this, they were all shocked, and they all went to look at the leader, Ruan Shuyue.

"Grandfather didn't agree?"

"No." Ruan Shuyue quickly waved her hands and said anxiously: "This is what I discussed with my grandfather. I'm afraid that in the future... I can accompany you by myself, but there are everyone in Ruan's house." Well. Fortunately, I am a daughter, and I am not included in the family tree."

Only then did everyone present understand that a married woman would not tire the family, such a disturbance would indeed save the Ruan Mansion, but the reputation of this Miss Ruan might be completely ruined in the future.A woman's reputation is worth more than her life, especially after hearing Ruan Shuyue's words that she seemed to accompany their eldest son through life and death, several generals looked at Ruan Shuyue with a little admiration.It's rare for such a kind and righteous girl to be able to do this for their elder son.

Back in the room at night, Ruan Shuyue had just loosened her hair when someone knocked on the door.

"Yuan Yi?" Her room is next to Yuan Yi's, and she usually runs to her room by herself, but this is the first time Yuan Yi has come to her door on her own initiative.

"Can I go in?"

"Ah?" Ruan Shuyue hurriedly dodged, "Why are you here?"

Yuan Yi paused his steps, thinking that she didn't mean to push him away, so he continued to enter the house. "I'll come and see you."

The two sat at the table silently. Usually at this time, either Yuan Yi was busy, or the eldest lady took the initiative to talk to others.In fact, Ruan Shuyue is not a proactive character, but when facing Yuan Yi who is more gentle and slow, there must always be someone who takes the first step.

"What do you want to say to me?" Ruan Shuyue looked at her for a long while, and after this man came in, he only poured a cup of tea for each of them, and then remained silent. There should be nothing to worry about, it should be Liang Yi in the afternoon Bring back that message.

"Shu Yue." Yuan Yi called her name, it would be superfluous to thank her, but what else could she say besides thank you?

"Why are you calling me Shu Yue again?" The eldest lady rested her chin on the table, pointing her finger at her cheek. "Didn't you always call me Yue'er in front of people?" Although this was a name that was changed only the day before yesterday, she was very happy to be from Miss Yue'er to Yue'er.

"Isn't there no one else?"

"Oh, it seems that next time I have to whisper to you in the front hall."

Yuan Yi couldn't help but laugh, "Yue'er, thank you." She still should thank you, although she felt that she had a lot to say, but Yuan Yi, who had never dealt with such a relationship, was really not good at expressing more.

"I see, you don't have to keep saying it." The eldest lady stepped back and lowered her arms, took a sip from the teacup. "I'm all voluntary, not for your thanks. Don't always remember these things, let alone have burdens, just do your thing with peace of mind."

Yuan Yi felt warm in his heart when he heard it, and looked at Ruan Shuyue's eyes that softened little by little, "The sugar cake you brought back is delicious." There was another long silence before Yuan Yi opened his mouth quietly.

Ruan Shuyue blinked her big eyes and looked at her, why did she suddenly mention this?

"I'm done eating."

"There's nothing for sale here. If you like it, I'll bring it to you next time I go back to Bianzhou." Gently putting down the teacup, Ruan Shuyue felt a little embarrassed: "I don't have Lingchu's craftsmanship, so I'm not very good at making these." Eh?But you can ask Yu'er, she is ingenious, maybe you can study it with her.

"No." Seeing someone misunderstood, Yuan Yi hurriedly said again: "Don't bother, I mean, the one you brought back is delicious."

Ruan Shuyue didn't realize the meaning of these words for a moment, Yuan Yi lowered his head slightly, took a deep breath and then looked at her: "I'm going to Mozhou in a few days, Mozhou is remote and the weather is bitter cold, although I received the news that Yuan Ke He was recalled to Kyoto, but it is not clear whether his eyeliner is still there, and it may take about half a year for me to go.”

Yuan Yi's sudden series of words pulled Shu Yue out of her thoughts in the last paragraph.

"Is it dangerous? Do you have to go?" Also, why did it take so long.

"Fortunately, there is no danger for the time being, I must go."

Ruan Shuyue pursed her lips. Although she was worried, she knew that this was what she was going to do. "Don't worry, I will take care of the state affairs for you."

Yuan Yi paused, she came today thinking of the reason Tang Chong told herself to take Lan Yu'er away when she left Huanxi Town in the past.Unexpectedly, Shu Yue thought so.

"What's wrong?" Seeing people staring at her blankly, Ruan Shuyue also sensed something was wrong. "Do you have anything else to tell me?"

Shaking her head, Yuan Yi stood up, "You should rest earlier." But the moment she turned around, she suddenly turned her head, "Actually, I want to ask you, are you willing to go with me?"
