Oops, the male villain looked at me with affection in his eyes

Ning Yu had a rare hint of embarrassment on her face, and she said to Li Yourong:

"It was my fault yesterday for not returning the veil in time. When I saw the veil clearly and wanted to send it back to you, you were already gone."

Then he said to the women: "Ning Yu thanks you all for your kindness. Ning didn't keep any of the gifts, but gave them to others. Please don't give them again in the future."

Li Yourong bit her lip and was silent for a long time: "Then where is my veil now?"

Cheng Ruhua, who had been staring at the situation on the boat, coughed lightly, raised the handkerchief in his hand, and said loudly: "Here, your handkerchief is here with me."

Everyone looked up and saw a beautiful and charming girl wearing a coarse cloth dress and holding a piece of pink and white silk in her hand.

Cheng Ruhua held two cross-necked mandarin ducks and looked at Li Yourong with a faint smile: "What? Is this your veil?"

Li Yourong's face turned red immediately, and she said calmly, "Good sister, you can keep it for me first. I will go and get it after we get off the boat."

When Cheng Ruhua saw Li Yourong taking the initiative to show weakness, she stopped thinking about making her look embarrassed. She said with a relaxed smile, "Okay."

She plucked the pearl flowers on her temples to the other girl and said with a smile: "Oh, by the way, I still have the pearl flowers you gave me. As for those fruits, pears and peaches, I have already eaten them."

The girls and ladies looked angry, but they dared not speak out.

Li Yourong was pouted in public, her face turned red and tears welled up in her eyes.

Seeing this scene, Ning Yu hurriedly walked in the direction of Chu Ye.

Marquis Zhongyong looked at Cheng Ruhua and couldn't help but said helplessly: "Ruhua, why are you still as naughty as when you were a child?"

Cheng Ruhua stuck out her tongue at Marquis Zhongyong: "Grandpa Cheng, I brought the most tender plate of tofu and sent it to you and grandma's main courtyard."

Marquis Zhongyong nodded lovingly, with memories in his eyes, and said to everyone:

"Ruhua's father was an old subordinate of mine. He died in the battle that year. Zhuojing and I almost wanted to keep her by our side, but this girl was so stubborn that she took her father's pension and learned a skill in a daze. Craftsmanship feeds oneself.”

When Chu Ye heard this, his eyes that were originally secretive became full of inquiry.

Seeing Ning Yu's lack of interest, Prince Duolun joked: "Prince Yu didn't drink the prairie spirit today. I hope the King of Japan will make up for it for you. Do you think that's feasible?"

Ning Yu's eyes lit up instantly.

Chu Ye said slowly: "Ning Yu will go to the plum blossom pile in the near future and it is inconvenient to drink. Chu will thank Prince Duolun on behalf of Ning Yu."

Prince Duolun responded with a gift: "You don't have to be polite, Prime Minister Chu. If you have the opportunity to come to my grassland another day, I will let Prime Minister Chu and Prince Yu drink enough."

He then smiled at everyone and said: "My Da Da grassland is the most hospitable. If you can come to my grassland, just tell your name and someone will send you to my king's tent."

The boat swam around the lake and stopped steadily by the lake where it came from.

Ning Yu took advantage of the gap between people getting off the boat, approached Chu Ye, and asked in a low voice: "Master, will I really not be able to drink anymore?"

Chu Ye seemed a little depressed. He looked at Ning Yu's slightly worried eyes and said slowly: "It depends on your performance."

Ning Yu caught up with Chu Ye: "Does that mean that if I master the plum blossom pile, I can drink alcohol?"

Chu Ye lowered his eyes and said lightly "Yeah".

Ning Liancheng walked to Ning Yu and said, "You will go to the plum blossom pile later, so there is no need to rush back home. Your mother and I will go back first. You can go back home by yourself after you have practiced."

Ning Yu nodded.

Ning Huan was supported by the maid and heard the words: "Father, I..."

Ning Liancheng glanced at her legs and said calmly: "Tell your carriage to follow mine and your mother's carriage back home."

Ning Huan lowered his head and bit his lip.

Everyone said goodbye one by one, and Ning Yu boarded Chu Ye's carriage.

In the large carriage, fruit shops and preserves had already been set up, and Ning Yu was attracted by it as soon as she entered.

As soon as the preserved fruit was in her mouth, Ning Yu's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly poured a cup of tea for Chu Ye beside her.

The aroma of tea and wine mixed together, it smells inexplicably good.

Chu Ye's whole body was steaming with alcohol. At this time, his phoenix eyes were slightly closed and he was resting his mind with his eyes closed.

In my mind was the scene of Ning Yu and Cheng Ruhua standing under the tree. The two of them smiled and looked at each other, so natural and right.

Thinking of this, Chu Ye's hand in his sleeve tightened the string of white jade beads in his hand.

This little liar who goes around messing around with women!

Ning Yu's voice was particularly clear.

Chu Ye slowly opened his eyes.

"Yu'er, do you know you were wrong about what happened today?"

"?"

Ning Yu stared with big eyes, chewing candied fruit in her mouth, and looked over with an innocent expression.

Chu Ye pursed his lips and suppressed the anger in his heart: "The people who gave you gifts yesterday were young ladies from various houses who have not yet left the government. You accepted gifts from people on the street, and you didn't know you were wrong?"

Ning Yu blinked her big eyes and lowered her head: "I only took it as a joke yesterday, but I didn't expect them to mention it in front of everyone."

Chu Ye seemed to grit his teeth: "They wish you would accept them early, so they want to use every opportunity to force you to submit."

Ning Yu's lips twitched slightly: They want it, but I can't do it.

She said calmly: "It doesn't matter. Sister Ruhua has already explained it clearly to me in public."

It was okay if she didn't mention Ruhua, but when she mentioned Ruhua, Chu Ye's anger started to rise.

"Then what does Cheng Ruhua have to do with you? Why do you dare to offend the ladies from all over the country just by being a commoner?"

A suppressed and tense voice sounded, but Ning Yu didn't pay attention.

"We grew up together, with a break for a few years. We met on the street yesterday..."

"Snapped!"

The string of beads in Chu Ye's hand broke at the sound.

The bright white beads scattered around, and Ning Yu looked at Chu Ye in surprise: "Master?"

Chu Ye's face had completely sunk: "Childhood sweetheart?!"

Ning Yu only felt Chu Ye's deep phoenix eyes, and felt the emotions rolling in his eyes, with a strong desire to see, pressing heavily against her.

She hurriedly avoided her sight and picked up the scattered beads one by one.

Chu Ye's eyes followed Ning Yu, and his heart became more depressed.

The conversation with Shen Yuanchang in the Imperial Study Room is still vivid in my mind. It was my own rhetoric to deal with the emperor, and it was also my subconscious desire.

[I remember that my beloved is now twenty-three, and it’s time to find a virtuous noblewoman to settle down with. 】

[Wei Chen already has a candidate of his choice in his mind. When the time is right, I will definitely ask His Majesty for permission to marry him. 】

[Oh, which noble girl has the Prime Minister fallen in love with? 】

Chu Ye looked at Ning Yu's panicked eyes, and a sarcastic smile appeared on his lips: What he fell in love with was not the noble girl from any family, but the young Ning in front of him who was stealing his heart without knowing it.

Moreover, he is a childhood sweetheart who has already had a childhood sweetheart, and is a confused playboy who may get engaged at any time!

Chu Ye's chest rose and fell as he watched Ning Yu pick up the outer beads one by one and slowly come towards him.

He slowly spread his hands, not knowing for a moment whether he should push Ning Yu away or pull him into his arms.

Jealousy drove him almost crazy.
