Luo Chen, who has just turned twenty, seems to be far more experienced and capable than his peers.

Externally, he gradually became cold and unsmiling.

More and more people began to pay attention to this young businessman who was rising in Beijing, feeling that he had a vicious vision and was decisive in his actions.

But Xu Rongrong knew how affectionate and righteous he was.

When he was young, the Luo family suffered sudden changes. In order to alleviate the crisis, the Luo family sold Luo Shu and several other cousins ​​into official families.

When Luo Chen, who was not yet ten years old, found out, he broke with the Luo family. After finding out his sister's whereabouts, he followed Xu Mansion around the capital for more than ten years.

In order to stay by his sister's side, he didn't know how much hardship he endured...

Over the years, he has always been with me, but he has never come to ask for help unreasonably, and he has never done anything to win sympathy.

He just worked quietly and worked hard to save money just to redeem his sister as soon as possible.

Having known each other for two lifetimes, Xu Rongrong naturally knew how valuable Luo Chen was.

Therefore, when she read the caravan roster compiled by Luo Chen, she left it to Luo Chen to take care of without asking any questions.

Her lack of trust in employing people made Luo Chen a little unsure: "More than half of the people in the caravan have never been through business. Why does the eldest lady trust me so much?"

Xu Rongrong smiled and said: "When it comes to doing business and looking at people, you have been abroad for so many years, so you are naturally more experienced than me. If I don't trust you, who can I trust? What's more... there is always a first time for everything, and these people are good No, you have to go there to find out."

After saying that, she added: "What's more, with Tao Gong's current confidence... even if he fails this time, he won't be able to shake the foundation."

Hearing this, Luo Chen understood in his heart that the eldest lady did not want to put too much pressure on herself.

She was thinking about herself so much, and Luo Chen was even more determined to do his best to complete this matter!

When Luo Chen left, Mu Yi was replying in the study.

He looked at the slightly pale face of his Lord Marquis and replied truthfully: "Luo Chen has been in and out of the Marquis's residence very frequently these days. It must be that Madam wants to build a caravan."

"Send a few people to secretly protect the safety of the caravan." Mu Rong ordered in a deep voice.

"My subordinates have arranged for six capable Mu family troops to accompany them." Mu Yi replied, "It's just... there are many people in the caravan. Do I need my subordinates to check the background of those people?"

"No need." Mu Rong shook his head.

He knew that she didn't want him to interfere too much in her affairs.

After Mu Yi received the order, he retreated.

As soon as he left the hospital, he saw Mu Lu stroking his chin and circling outside the door.

"I remember you have to go on duty in the camp today." Mu Yiqi said, "Why are you wandering around here?"

Mu Lu was thinking about something when he saw Mu Yi coming over and approached him in a mysterious manner: "Brother Yi, don't you think the Marquis has been a little strange lately?"

"What's weird?"

"In the past, before our husband got married, he would run to the Xu Mansion whenever he saw Tian'er. Later, he would stay in Zhuxiang Yayuan from time to time. He wished he could pick out the eldest lady's window every day! Now that he has married someone, he flirts with her every day. Next door, I am nestled in the study, staying there all day long! Isn’t this strange? "

Mu Yi was dumbfounded by his question: "Don't worry about my husband and his wife's affairs! The Marquis is planning big things now, how can he be entangled in the personal affairs of his children like you?!"

"No! No!" Mu Luwu was immersed in his own thoughts and touched his chin, "The ancients said - men tend to like the new and hate the old. In the past, if they couldn't get it, they would think about it all day long. After they got it, they would no longer cherish it. Oh! I didn’t expect that our father is actually such a person!"

"What are you thinking about!" Mu Yi gave him a slap in the face, "You haven't been punished this year. I think you are itchy! If you keep thinking about it, you don't have to go back to the Marquis. I will arrange for you to be whipped twenty times!"

"Brother Yi, Brother Yi... I don't dare anymore!" Mu Lu begged for mercy, "I don't want to think about it anymore, I'm going to get out..."

Not only Mu Lu was pondering this, but the people around Xu Rongrong were also suspicious.

In the afternoon of that day, Luo Shu took advantage of Xu Rongrong's time to read the account books outside and quietly pulled Wen Yao into the inner room: "Have you not seen the Marquis for several days?"

Wen Yao nodded: "Maybe he is too busy. Although he doesn't have to go to court, he still has to deal with daily official affairs."

"That means you don't even have time to have dinner with our lady! Since the day I came back, I have never seen the Marquis step into this room!"

"I asked Mu Ai yesterday, and he didn't know what the Marquis was busy with every day... He only knew that the Marquis was always alone in the study, and they couldn't even go in to serve him."

"Man, there is no such thing as a good thing!" Luo Shu snorted coldly, "I used to look at our young lady like a ball in my eyes, but now that we are married, we actually...throw it away as soon as I say it. If I had known this, it would be better. Don’t marry!”

"Shhh..." Wen Yao signaled her to be silent, "How can I allow you and me to comment on the matter between the Marquis and the young lady..."

Although she said this, her eyebrows became tighter and tighter.

Luo Shu has been a carefree person since he was a child. He only noticed that the Marquis has not seen the young lady now...

But Wen Yao knew that the young lady and the Marquis had never consummated their marriage.

Over the past year, she didn't know what happened between her young lady and the Marquis. She only knew that her young lady's feelings for the Marquis had changed from infatuation to resistance.

Even though His Majesty granted the marriage, the young lady once wanted to escape.

Fortunately, after all, he was moved by the Marquis' affection and did not do anything disrespectful.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the young lady entered the house, the Marquis changed!

She was even more uneasy than Luo Shu, but she didn't show it in front of the young lady.

The two little girls were whispering in the inner room, but Xu Rongrong's ears did not escape.

Although her eyes fell on the account books, she could not read a single word.

Ever since Mu Rong came to her aid that day, she promised him that she would not move out of Xinghui Hall for the time being.

She was originally prepared to face embarrassment every day, but she never thought... that she would never see him again for a day!

If she hadn't found traces of someone sleeping on the couch outside every morning, she would have felt as if she had suddenly returned to her previous life, where the two of them respected each other like "ice".

Recalling Mu Rong's obsession and occasional lustful expression before getting married.

The current changes left her confused.

This is not to say that she is looking forward to getting along with him, but the contrast between Mu Rong and Mu Rong always makes her feel that there is some secret hidden in him.

But she didn't want the girls around her to pay too much attention to this matter, so she interrupted them casually: "I don't know if it was cloudy these past two days. I always felt chilly last night. Wen Yao will help me get it again." A brocade quilt."

Wen Yao hurriedly agreed: "Yes."

Xu Rongrong paused for a moment and then added: "Get another bed."

Although no one else knew that she and Mu Rong slept in separate beds, Wen Yao, who tidied her inner room every day, must have known about it.

Sure enough, Wen Yao agreed without asking the reason, but his heart became more and more melancholy:

The young lady was obviously afraid that the Marquis would be cold, so she ordered herself to prepare an extra brocade quilt... But she didn't know if the Marquis was worthy of the young lady's concern.
