On her wedding night, she went into exile with her pharmacy arsenal

The shopkeeper quickly told the family backgrounds of the three girls.

"This Miss Li's family is a cloth merchant and has dealings with the Qian family cloth shop. In order to buy a bottle of perfume, she asked her father, Mr. Li, to come and talk to me."

“Mrs. Zhou, your husband’s family is in the medicinal materials business and runs a pharmacy. They are both good businessmen and good people.”

"This, Miss Mu," the shopkeeper paused, "is the descendant of Duke Dingguo. She was divorced and returned home, and is looking for a marriage partner."

Yan Ruyu's eyes fixed on the three words "Miss Mu", and the words that the eldest lady had said emerged in her mind.

"Divorced? Isn't that divorce?"

The shopkeeper smiled meaningfully: "The Mu family said it was a divorce, but in fact it was a divorce, and this Miss Mu is very proud, so..."

Yan Ruyu did not comment. It was someone else's private matter and she didn't want to ask more questions.

However, Huo Zhongmao once mentioned a woman wearing a veil who also went to the temple to pray for a marriage. The eldest lady said that several women had also gone there to pray.

She felt this was no coincidence.

"What does this Miss Mu look like?"

The shopkeeper replied, "She is quite tall, tall for a woman, with thin eyebrows and eyes, and the corners of her eyes are a little droopy. She usually wears a veil when she comes."

The shopkeeper paused and pointed to a spot under his chin: "There is a mole here. Although I have a veil, it is thin and I can still see it."

Yan Ruyu thought to herself that wouldn't that just be a cover-up for the loneliness.

She nodded, knowing what was going on. She took a quick look at the accounts and then stood up to leave.

"Perfume is slow to sell. It will take a few days to get it."

The shopkeeper knew that Huo Zhongmao didn't have any, so he didn't feel comfortable urging him and nodded quickly.

Yan Ruyu returned home leisurely. On the way, she bought some sugar-roasted chestnuts, which were hot and fragrant. She planned to go back and share them with the first lady so that she could have a more substantial dinner. Otherwise, it would be difficult to go to the temple tomorrow. She would have to set off early and probably would not be back until the evening. It would be difficult to eat well after a whole day.

Besides, the abbot was also frightened, so making something delicious could warm him up and calm him down.

She was planning to go back to the mansion, and told Linlang: "I'll go in by myself when we get there. You go to the mansion to see if the prince is there, and tell him not to come back too late, because I'll cook for you tonight."

Linlang cheered and agreed, even speeding up the car.

Huo Changhe was indeed at the mansion. Xiang Guang and Ma Liyu had also come. When everyone heard that they were going to help clean up the house, they became very motivated.

What's more, this used to be Shen Huaixin's home. They all suffered and endured at the hands of Shen Huaixin. From now on, this will be the prince's home, so they work extra hard.

After giving the instructions, Huo Changhe walked around the mansion, picked a few branches of white plum blossoms, and brought them back to Yan Ruyu.

There were also white plum blossoms in the plum garden where they lived, but they were not as beautiful as those here.

The setting sun was about to sink, and the golden-red light covered him from afar. He was dressed in a black cloak, and his figure was tall and slender, like a sword in its sheath, with its edge restrained and a touch of gentleness.

This was the scene when Mu Baodi saw Huo Changhe.

She felt the restless heart in her chest suddenly calm down, and the surrounding sounds, people, houses, everything, all faded away.

Only that ray of light and one person are left.

The maid beside her called her several times before she came back to her senses, but her eyes were still fixed on Huo Changhe.

The old woman followed her gaze and her eyes lit up: "Oh, this Deer Fairy is really powerful. I have only been worshipping her for a few days and I have met such a person."

Mu Baodi's breathing became rapid, twisting the handkerchief in her hands and turning it around: "Isn't this the Shen Mansion? But Shen Huaixin doesn't look like this."

The old woman whispered, "Miss, you don't know yet, Shen Huaixin is dead, this is most likely the new owner of the house."

"Shen Huaixin is dead?" Mu Baodi was surprised, but she didn't think much about it. Her attention and thoughts were all on the man in the distance. "The person who can buy the Shen residence is not an ordinary person."

"Find out more about him and see who he is."

The old woman understood her thoughts instantly: "Yes, I will find out clearly."

After saying this, Mu Baodi didn't want to leave and stared at Huo Changhe.

Huo Changhe noticed it, turned around and looked over, his eyes suddenly sharp, like a sword drawn from its sheath.

Mu Zhaodi's heart shuddered, and after a brief moment of fear, she became calm and very interested.

She adjusted the gorgeous hairpin on her head and was about to walk towards Huo Changhe when Linlang arrived on horseback.

Yan Ruyu got off the carriage and returned home. She also unloaded the carriage and rode directly over.

Huo Changhe heard the noise, retracted his gaze and looked at Linlang.

Linlang's little face was full of smiles, her eyes were curved, and she was about to salute when she dismounted from her horse, but Huo Changhe's tall figure blocked her way and he raised his hand slightly, indicating that she didn't need to salute.

"Is something wrong?"

Huo Changhe always has more patience with people around Yan Ruyu.

Linlang smiled and said, "My Lord, the princess asked you not to come back too late. The princess will cook and prepare delicious food tonight."

Huo Changhe smiled and said, "No wonder you are so happy. How was your visit to the spice shop? Are you happy?"

Linlang thought for a moment and said, "I'm glad. The master even bought some chestnuts on the way back."

Huo Changhe nodded: "Okay, I understand. You go back and report to the princess. Xiang Guang and Ma Liyu will also go. Let them finish their work here early and go to the mansion to help."

"Yes."

Linlang rode away again.

Huo Changhe had originally planned to return home, but after hearing what Linlang said, he felt that he had to go buy something. Yan Ruyu sounded in a good mood, and he wanted to make her happier.

When he turned around again, the woman who had just seen him was gone, and he didn't take it to heart.

Although the woman's gaze made him feel uncomfortable, he could sense that she was just an ordinary person and had no intention of killing.

As soon as he left, Mu Baodi in the car on the side of the road lowered the car curtains with a gloomy face.

"We need to take another look to see who that woman was."

The old woman whispered: "She looks young, so she shouldn't be..."

"Is it all wrong? She's so coquettish even though she's young. She smiles like that at men. How can we not teach her a lesson?"

The old woman didn't dare to say anything more, and whispered, "You are right."

Mu Baodi snorted and twisted the handkerchief hard: "You vixen, you all deserve to die."

Her eyes flickered dimly, and the cold fragments of light were like nails scattered on the ground. The old woman lowered her head, slowed her breathing, and dared not say a word.

"Go to Wuji Tower."

The old woman looked up when she heard Fang's words, mustered up her courage, and said bitterly, "Miss, you should think about this matter again, just in case..."

"What if?" Mu Baodi sneered, "What if something happens, my father can still kill me? I am his biological daughter after all, what does that bitch mean to me?"

"She has occupied my mother's position. She has enjoyed so many blessings for so many years. She should have died long ago! I have allowed her to live for so many more years. It is considered a bargain for her."

"Don't think I don't know that my marriage has been delayed because of that bitch!"

The more Mu Baodi spoke, the more fierce her eyes became: "Go to Wuji Tower!"

"Yes."
