Chapter 178: Staying Overnight
Lin Ruqin was subjected to inhumane treatment.
On the other side, Lin Le was watching how satisfied he was with his son-in-law.
For the Lin family, it was an incredible stroke of good fortune that such a distinguished and elegant man had married their daughter.
Although Li Zeyan was a prince, he was treacherous and cunning, and usually ignorant and incompetent.
He may outwardly respect such a person, but in reality, he looks down on them.
Li Jingyang also sensed that Lin Le was being a little too enthusiastic towards him.
Even for Lin Rusi's sake, he couldn't afford to break off relations.
At this point, the only option is to politely decline.
"Thank you for your kindness, Father-in-law, but I have other matters to attend to upon my return today, so I'm afraid I can't make it. Ye Qing, bring out the things I prepared for my father-in-law and mother-in-law."
Upon hearing this, Ye Qing went to the carriage outside and took out the gift she had prepared in advance.
“I know my father-in-law has always loved the calligraphy of famous calligraphers. I went to great lengths to acquire this piece of calligraphy. It was written by Mr. Wang A himself, and it is priceless.”
Lin Lezheng saw the gift and knew it was very valuable, but seeing that the calligraphy was indeed well-written and he really liked it, he hesitated.
Before Lin Lezheng could answer, she took out a pair of vases and handed them to Si Yu.
"I heard that my mother-in-law likes flower arranging. These enamel vases were presented as tribute last year. They were given to me by my elder brother. I hope my mother-in-law will not find them too tacky."
The couple looked at Li Jingyang. Although he was of noble status, he did not have an air of superiority. On the contrary, he was approachable.
He can answer all sorts of questions fluently.
"Your Highness, I haven't stayed at home for quite some time since I got married. Why don't you stay here for today?"
Lin Rusi also felt a sense of anticipation.
Having been away for so long, I find myself missing the little courtyard where I used to live.
Seeing that Lin Rusi had said so, Li Jingyang naturally had no right to refuse, so he quickly agreed.
At this moment, Ye Ruoruo sat next to Lin Rusi, still somewhat worried about the diagnosis she had just given Si Yu.
"Your Highness, as you instructed, I checked your father and mother's pulses just now. Lord Lin is fine, but he has been working too hard these days, which may have made him a little weak. However, Aunt, you just had a miscarriage and your body has not fully recovered. You still need to take medicine to speed up your recovery."
Since losing her child, Si Yu has been depressed for most of the time.
This is why my physical condition has not fully recovered.
Upon hearing this, Si Yu understood her problem and looked at the doctor with some anticipation.
After learning about her mother's health condition, Lin Rusi was naturally very worried.
Without Lin Rusi's constant help, her family would probably have been injured or killed long ago, and how could they possibly live a simple and happy life?
"Ruo Ruo, no matter how much it costs, as long as it can save my mother, that's enough."
As Ye Ruoruo spoke, she realized that she had some worries in her heart.
"That's true, but there are a few medicinal herbs on my prescription that I've been searching for in the Prince's mansion for a whole day and haven't been able to find."
Thinking about this, I felt a little helpless.
These ministers, of course, rarely had the opportunity to obtain such precious medicinal materials.
However, there is no other choice at the moment.
Si Yu also fell silent. In recent days, she had indeed been trying to resolve the current situation. She had lost one child, and naturally hoped to make up for this loss with another child.
Unfortunately, my body has not fully recovered, so I have not been able to fulfill this wish.
"Miss Ye, tell me honestly, from now on, will I still have a chance to get pregnant?"
Si Yu looked at Ye Ruoruo with some anticipation.
Upon hearing this, Ye Ruoruo's expression became somewhat troubled.
Given Si Yu's age, getting pregnant is inherently more difficult than for younger women.
In addition, she had a miscarriage a few days ago, so the damage to her body will probably be even greater.
The others naturally noticed this as well.
"It's not that there's no chance, but Auntie is getting old, and some things can't be forced. It's best to let nature take its course."
Si Yu was somewhat disappointed.
"There really isn't a single solution."
Thinking about this still fills me with lingering fear.
I always thought I was still quite young, but now I'm suddenly the one taking care of others, and I can't help but feel a sense of loss.
And so many years have passed in the blink of an eye; the child was just an infant back then.
Although I was a little sad, I quickly came to my senses.
"Alright, we've already wasted enough time today. I had someone clean up the courtyard you used to stay in while we were eating. You two will just have to make do with the side courtyard for now."
Lin Rusi felt a surge of anticipation after hearing this.
Since marrying Li Jingyang, she has never returned to this little courtyard. Now, thinking about it, she still feels a bit nostalgic.
The two then returned to the courtyard where they had lived before they got married.
The place was spotless, and it was clear that people came here often.
At that moment, I realized that this was all out of kindness from my parents, so I didn't press them any further.
"Then I'll have to trouble you to stay here for today."
"Don't say things like that again. This is where you grew up, so of course I'm happy to stay. Why do you have to think so much?"
Hearing this made Lin Rusi feel a little embarrassed.
“I used to love planting flowers in this garden. Do you see that swing over there? It was built by my father when I was eight years old. I thought it was amazing back then.”
After saying that, he sat down on the swing.
However, the feeling from that time always feels like a distant memory to Lin Rusi now.
Some things seem to be gone forever.
At this moment, Li Jingyang also silently came up behind Lin Rusi and gently nudged her.
This helped Lin Rusi recover her mood quickly.
"Alright, alright, I don't want any of these things anymore. If you have time today, I can introduce all these treasures to you."
Seeing all her belongings displayed in the cabinet, Lin Rusi couldn't help but feel moved. She knew very well that any one of these items could be sold for a fortune...
