The cold husband can't warm me up, I don't love him anymore

Chapter 16 "Cui Lingyi, don't go down the old path!"

"It's really haunting!"

Cui Lingyi was assigned by her grandfather to go back to the valley first to arrange the reception of the guests.

From afar he saw the Imperial City Envoy's black horse and black cloak, which formed a black cloud, rushing into the valley, and he could not help but curse.

When she had settled everything, she saw Feng Zhenzhu had also come to Xiancao Valley!

"The ghost lingers!"

Cui Lingyi was a little unhappy.

Although she doesn't hate or resent them, it doesn't mean she has to accept these two people being so affectionate on her own turf!

"I don't know what grandpa is thinking. How can he let anyone into the valley?"

Cui Lingyi was so restless that she simply stood up and planned to go find her grandfather to talk.

My grandfather lived in Zhuyou Pavilion, which was surrounded by bamboo forests and was very quiet.

There is a small hill in the middle, and down there is her Lotus Pier.

When she wanted to go there, she just had to climb a small slope, pass through a bamboo forest, and then she could enter the Bamboo Pavilion from the backyard.

Very convenient.

Just like now, in just a few breaths, her feet had already stepped onto the stone steps of Zhuyou Pavilion. Just as she was about to shout "Grandpa", she unexpectedly heard an extremely cold voice.

"Grandfather, please trust me, I will take good care of Ah Li."

"I am old now and can't take care of so many things, but I can still take care of Ah Li. She will live here from now on, and I will hand over the Immortal Grass Valley to her. I won't let her suffer. Young Marquis, you should go back to the capital!"

"Grandfather, I promised Aunt Cui that I would take care of Ah Li for the rest of her life."

"May I ask how the young marquis will take care of Ah Li for the rest of his life? Will he confine her to the backyard of the mansion?"

"Your Majesty has granted me the Ningguo Marquisate. After we get married, Ah Li and I can move in."

"Hmph, even if you have this idea, where is your mother? I heard that she has already arranged a marriage for you. Our Ah Li is not like Princess Baohua, who has the support of the King of Yan behind her!"

"Grandfather, you know that no one can be my master."

"Young Marquis, what you mean is that no matter whether Ah Li agrees to the engagement or not, you have to marry her?"

"I, Shen Du, only recognize Ah Li in this life."

"Forget it, go and have a rest first. I'll talk to Ah Li later and see if she'll change her mind."

"Thank you, Grandfather!"

Cui Lingyi stood there blankly, watching Shen Du walk away, still not coming to her senses.

She just doesn't understand.

Even though this has happened, how could Shen Du still tell his grandfather that he would take care of her?

And marry her and take care of her for the rest of her life?!

"Come out, everyone has gone far away!"

Li Chong'an's words instantly pulled Cui Lingyi out of her chaotic thoughts.

"Grandfather, how did you know it was me?"

Li Chongan's short beard curled up.

"Who else would come up the back path except you?!"

Cui Lingyi pursed her lips, feeling a little embarrassed.

"You heard everything, right? He wants to take you back. What do you think?"

"No, I want to stay here and accompany my grandfather!"

Li Chongan smiled.

"Of course it's good for you to stay with an old man like me, but I'm afraid it will ruin your life! Grandfather can't marry you to a rough man who grows medicinal herbs! Hahaha..."

"Grandfather!" Cui Lingyi blushed, "...Then I won't leave either. I'll stay here."

"It's been such a long time, and grandpa never asked you. What do you think? Tell me." Li Chongan poured a cup of tea and placed it in front of her.

Cui Lingyi didn't know what to say.

She couldn't bring up things from her past life!

She said she saw Shen Du smiling at other women, but he was always the same and expressionless towards her?

Said she would die because of Shen Du? !

"I'm not marrying him anyway!" After thinking about it, she added.

"He is cold, can't talk, and can't laugh. I'm tired of him!"

"Um?!"

Hearing this, Li Chong'an was stunned for a moment, then he stroked his beard and laughed.

"You're right. That kid is a good one, just a little cold. But you should understand him. In his position, it's easy for people to see what he's thinking and then make a big fuss about it. Over time, it's inevitable that he'll become cold and aloof, hahaha..."

Cui Lingyi didn't know what her grandfather was laughing at, she just felt a little embarrassed.

"Grandpa!"

Seeing her blushing, Li Chong'an stopped laughing, but he still smiled with a pursed mouth.

"Anyway, you've given Grandfather a good reason to refuse! Hahaha..."

Cui Lingyi was so ashamed and angry that she ran out of the yard quickly.

She really couldn't imagine what Shen Du's expression would be if he heard this?

Probably still no expression!

What kind of expression can a person like him have? !

When she got outside, she remembered that she had forgotten to tell him about Feng Zhenzhu.

She wanted to go back, but was afraid of her grandfather's eyes that seemed to be able to see through her thoughts, so she decided to take a detour to meet Feng Zhenzhu.

At least on the surface, I should formally thank her for helping me.

The only female guest entering the valley this time was Feng Zhenzhu, and for safety reasons, she lived not far away.

After passing a medicinal field, we saw the guesthouse.

I don’t know whether Dr. Feng likes this exquisite and elegant bamboo house.

When Cui Lingyi reached the door, she looked up involuntarily and immediately stopped her arm from pushing the door.

Through the half-person-high flower wall, one can clearly see Shen Du sitting in the pavilion in the yard, and Feng Zhenzhu talking about something opposite him.

She suddenly realized that if Shen Du was the most expressionless person she had ever seen, then Feng Zhenzhu was the person with the most active facial expressions.

While speaking, not only was his brows beaming with joy, but his hands were also waving.

"They complement each other, they are quite a match!"

Cui Lingyi said this harshly and turned away.

She was somewhat touched by what she heard from her grandfather.

But now....

What else is there to say?

He said such nice things, but instead of coming to see her, he went to find another woman!

Isn't everything obvious?

Is it because you promised her mother that you have to marry her and take care of her?

Who needs his care?

She ran so fast that she took the wrong road.

When she looked back, she found that she had somehow ended up at the Polygonum multiflorum field.

A ginseng plant stood upright where the Polygonum multiflorum had been dug out before.

The leaves are green and growing very vigorously.

Cui Lingyi stared blankly, and suddenly figured out a lot of things.

After being reborn, she did not completely let go of Shen Du.

Her refusal of marriage and her escape were all because she still had hope.

She hoped Shen Du would change.

I hope he is gentle and considerate and can smile at her.

But now, the woman who was destined to make him laugh appeared.

Even if he married her because of his promise to his mother like in his previous life, what would it matter?

But the tragedy just happened again.

She looked at the ginseng growing in the Polygonum multiflorum pit, and her heart gradually calmed down.

"Cui Lingyi, don't go down the old path!"

She said silently to herself.

She slowly walked into the medicinal field, carefully dug out the ginseng seedling, and transplanted it to the ginseng field on the other side.

Looking at the abrupt pit, she suddenly didn't find it glaring anymore.
