Chapter 21 Destiny

Ren Shimin thought of the matter that Mrs. Ren said that the painting he gave to others was a child's plaything. Although he was extremely unhappy at that time, it was difficult for Mrs. Ren to refute because she was an elder.

Li was stunned and looked at Madam Zhou at a loss.

Madam Zhou wanted to say something, but Ren Yaoqi, who knew Ren Shimin very well, smiled and interrupted, "Dad has prepared something good for others, can we tell me?"

Ren Shimin's expression calmed down and said to Ren Yaoqi: "Young Master Han liked a calligraphy and painting from me. Before leaving, I asked the servant to send the painting to him."

Ren Yaoqi blinked: "I guess the calligraphy and painting that Mr. Han likes must be your painting by Dad!"

Ren Shimin was happy, but said calmly: "Oh? How can I see it?"

Ren Yaoqi said seriously: "He has helped us so much. If he just picked some other people's calligraphy and paintings, wouldn't it be a big loss?"

Ren Shimin laughed loudly, and everyone in the room could feel his joy from the bottom of his heart.

Li was also happy to see the appearance of the father and daughter, but Ren Yaohua only lowered her head and played with the agate bracelet on her wrist, as if she was absent-minded.

"This young master of the Han family is also a elegant person. If there is a lady in the Han family, you can have a relationship with our third and fifth lady." Madam Zhou took advantage of Ren Shimin's happiness to make fun, but in fact she turned around and found out about the situation of the Han family.

The Han family moved to Baihe Town last year. At that time, they were still in the village. After they came back, they once mentioned the Han family's affairs, but they had no contact.

An old man like Madam Zhou, who is used to Mo Geng in the inner house, naturally knows that some things are clearer and clearer and more dominant.

Ren Shimin was in a good mood, so he answered Madam Zhou's words: "I heard from Mr. Han that he has a son and a daughter. Mr. Han is fifteen years old this year, so Miss Han doesn't know. I see that the Han family has a good tutor. Although that Mr. Han is young, he is eager to learn and polite, especially the Yan style regular script, which is written very generously."

Ren Yaoqi originally heard Ren Shimin mentioning the Han family that did not react for a moment. Now, when he heard him praise the Han family, he suddenly remembered.

The year her mother and Ren Yaohua went to the village, a new family of Han family was moved to Baihe Town. Later, Ren Shimin took a fancy to the talent of the young master of the Han family and made a marriage for Ren Yaohua. Seeing that although the Han family was low-key, they had a wide connection, had a lot of family property, and had only one only son, they were happy to see this marriage.

But later, the Han family's son suddenly broke off the engagement for some reason. The Ren family originally disagreed, but in the end they compromised for some reason.

Ren Yaohua was deeply hit and had a more irritable temper. The Ren family already regarded her as an abandoned son.

Finally, with the help of the second wife Su, Ren Yaohua married Zeng Kui, the cousin of Grandma Su, the niece of the second wife's family.

Grandma Su is from the capital. Her cousin was Zeng Yan, the newly succeeded general of Ningxia at that time. Zeng Yan had countless wives and concubines, but only Zeng Kui was the only son.

At that time, the unmarried sisters of the Ren family envied Ren Yaohua for her good fortune. After being resigned, they could find such a good relative who was hard to find with a lantern. However, it was not until a few days before Ren Yaohua got married that the young master of the Zeng family had burned half of his face by the wet nurse when she was young and blinded her eyes.

Old Lady Ren must surrender to the nobles and come to Ziweiyuan to persuade Ren Yaohua to get married. During the process, the old lady knew how he used reason to move him with affection. Ren Yaoqi didn't know how Old Lady Ren persuaded her proud and domineering granddaughter who was "most loved by her in her life" to happily marry a man with an ugly appearance.

But she succeeded, and Ren Yaohua married the Zeng family without any quarrels.

Half a year later, Ren Yaohua strangled his newlyweds with his hair and was thrown into the red tent of the military camp by Zeng Qi. On the night when the northwest wind was blowing, Ren Yaohua burned the military camp and buried himself in the fire.

The Ren family made enemies with the Zeng family, and bad luck followed one after another.

The Han family's son who broke the engagement with Ren Yaohua just married Yun Qiuchen, the eldest daughter of the Yun family, this year. He was a talented man and beautiful woman, and had a ten-mile red makeup. I don't know how many young men and women in Yanbei were envious.

"Yaoyao? Yaoyao?" Ren Shimin shook his hand in front of Ren Yaoqi's eyes and frowned.

Ren Yaoqi came back to his senses and saw that everyone in the room looked at her, he forced a smile.

"Yaoyao, are you feeling uncomfortable?" Ren Shimin reached out to touch her forehead.

Li also said: "Is the disease not cured yet? Why are your face so ugly?"

Ren Yaoqi obediently let Ren Shimin touch her forehead indiscipline, and did not remind him that the palm of his hand that had served the hot tea could not be able to see the heat. He just lowered his head and said, "No, I just suddenly remembered that when my father left home, he had arranged a lot of paintings and copybooks for me. I didn't finish it because I was sick for a long time. I was afraid that my father would blame me when he checked his studies later."

Ren Shimin took his hand helplessly and cursed with a smile: "When did Dad blame you? Did you scare you like this?"

Seeing that Ren Yaoqi's face was much better, Li couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief: "It's better if you're not sick."

Although Ren Yaoqi has always been the bridge of communication between Ren Shimin and Li, she has been worried about how she can stop everything before it happens.

"Master, Madam, Aunt Fang brought the Sixth Master and Miss Ninth to pay tribute." The eldest maid, Shanhu, reported through the curtain.

Ren Shimin looked at Li in surprise: "Amn Fang still sick?"

Li thought this was to blame her, and said uneasy: "I, I told her not to come."

Ren Shimin nodded and signaled someone to come in.

After a while, Aunt Fang walked in with her children.

Today, Aunt Fang wore an ordinary sheepskin coat with light blue fabric, tied a round bun, and a Zhaojun suit on her forehead. Her makeup was simple but not dignified and beautiful. She walked along the way with her head slightly lowered, her waist was full, and her lotus steps were light, and she had a romantic posture, but she was rare to see her frivolousness.

No wonder the maids of the Ren family like to learn from her secretly.

Ren Shimin looked at Aunt Fang, and his eyes couldn't help but feel some appreciation. He has always been generous in his eyes for beautiful things.

Aunt Fang's eyes swept slightly towards Ren Shimin, and immediately avoided it, and came forward to kowtow to Ren Shimin and Li.

Ren Shimin smiled and nodded: "Get up, did you let me rest and recuperate?"

Aunt Fang's beautiful eyes were slim and her smile was a little weak, but her joy emanated from the inside out: "I heard that the master is back, I... I am here to pay my respects."

Ren Yaohua looked at Aunt Fang's appearance and was so angry that she was not angry. Although she tried her best to restrain herself, her words were still very cold and hard: "Since you are asked to rest, just rest. If you get this out, the wind will get worse again, and people outside don't know about it, they think my mother treats you mean!"

Aunt Fang's face darkened when she heard this, and the smile on her lips was a little bitter, but she lowered her head very softly and responded: "What the third lady taught me is that I am not thinking well."

Ren Shimin frowned and looked at Ren Yaohua. Before the head of the family could speak, his daughter taught her father's concubine a lesson. This seemed to him to be rude.

Ren Yaoqi smiled at Aunt Fang and said, "Auntie, don't be surprised. The third sister always speaks straightforwardly. A good word will make her mouth feel bad. I am the most impatient to talk to her on weekdays. But I think her original intention is not to 'teach you a lesson', but seeing that you are dressed too thin, I worry that you will get cold."

Ren Shimin looked at Aunt Fang's clothes.

Madam Zhou was also surprised and said, "Auntie, why are you wearing so little today? How cold is it outside? You are so careless. When it wasn't so cold a few days ago, you knew you were wearing a fox fur coat and a thick cloak. Didn't you mean to make our wife feel sorry for you?"

Aunt Fang turned red.

"It was my sixth brother and I who were eager to see my father and clamored to come over soon. My aunt was only concerned about what we were wearing, but she was neglected. Mother, don't blame my aunt, okay?" Ren Yaoying looked at Li with grievance.

"Your mother didn't blame anyone, why do you all feel wronged first?" Ren Shimin interrupted with a gentle voice, making himself feel uncontrollable.

Although he disdains to take care of these inner court affairs, due to his sensitive nature, the back and forth between women makes him very annoyed.
