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

Afterwards, the two learned some more things about Shan Xiaoya.

She had no idea about her background.

All I remember is that she was born in Jifeng Village and her mother died of complications during childbirth.

Her father missed her so much that he raised her until she was thirteen, but finally he could not bear it and died of illness.

After that, she became the leader of Jiyue Village, doing some robbery to support the villagers.

Now six years have passed.

It is said that men should get married when they are old enough and women should get married when they are old enough. Dan Xiaoya knew that she was not young anymore, so she thought about finding a husband.

She grew up in the village and looked down on rough men, and wanted to find a handsome scholar.

But it is difficult to find someone you like by robbing.

So, when she saw Feng Zhenzhu disguised as a man that day, Dan Xiaoya no longer cared about anything else.

Just grab it and run.

At this point, Shan Xiaoya's face showed a bit of embarrassment.

"You were all terrified at that time!"

"A little bit, but if you hadn't robbed her, we wouldn't be such good friends!"

"Hahaha, that's true."

Thinking of how she seemed to be particularly resistant to the emperor that day, Cui Lingyi couldn't help but ask.

"From what Sister Xiaoya said, it seems that she has no deep hatred with the government, so why did she resist staying at the posthouse that day?"

Hearing this, Shan Xiaoya smiled innocently and scratched her head.

"There's actually no special reason. I heard it from my father. Since I was a child, he has always told me that it's best not to have any contact with officials, not even to talk to them."

Both of them were a little surprised by such a rough reason.

"Did your father tell you the reason?"

"No." Shan Xiaoya shook her head.

"So, your hatred of the government is entirely influenced by your father?"

"You can say that." Shan Xiaoya said embarrassedly.

Cui Lingyi and Feng Zhenzhu looked at each other, and both of them put down what was in their hearts.

I'm afraid that this little girl's life has been somewhat rough.

It's just that there's no reason to be found now.

Three days later in the afternoon, the group finally arrived in Shangjing.

Shan Xiaoya drank the fat-reducing tea for three consecutive days and indeed lost a lot of weight.

Although he still looks strong, he already has some outlines.

After changing into a blue men's suit, he looked more heroic and better looking than women's clothes.

Even she herself was amazed, "I didn't expect that I, Dan Xiaoya, could look so good in a man costume!"

Feng Zhenzhu suggested changing the name.

"Sister Xiaoya, the word 'Ya' sounds a bit feminine, and it doesn't sound nice when you say it. How about changing it to 'Ya'?"

"Okay, let's call her Shan Ya!"

While queuing to enter the city, the few of them went over everything they needed to pay attention to.

When we entered the city, someone from the Li family came to pick us up.

Cui Lingyi only informed her two uncles about her return, and it was her two aunts who came to pick her up, followed by several maids.

"I guess these two must be Ah Li's friends. They have come from afar and must have worked hard."

My aunt, Mrs. Qiu, came forward to greet us warmly.

Second aunt Liang hugged Cui Lingyi in her arms, calling her her darling.

"You're finally back. I missed you so much, my aunt!"

Everyone talked enthusiastically for a while, temporarily letting go of the sadness of meeting each other, and then rode their bikes back home.

This kind of commotion had already been noticed by some people who were interested and reported it to their respective masters.

The Imperial City Bureau has spies all over the capital, so Shen Du was naturally the first to know about it.

"She has come back?"

"Yes, I saw Lord Buddha's Hand and Miss Cui were accompanied by two young men."

"man?"

"Yes, one looks like a weak scholar, and the other is very powerful."

Shen Du frowned.

After thinking for a moment, I got the answer.

He guessed that the scholar-looking woman was Feng Zhenzhu, after all, he had seen her in men's clothing before.

As for the other one who was very brave, he had no idea at all.

An indescribable panic rose in his heart, and he, who was usually calm, seemed a little unsteady.

"Hasn't there been any letters from Buddha's Hand these days?"

"Not in the last month."

"Bring her to me!"

"Yes!"

The Cui Mansion also received the news.

Ever since the letter urging Cui Lingyi to return was sent, the Cui family has had the housekeeper guarding the city gate.

Unfortunately today, I was a little late and missed the chance to pick someone up.

Upon learning that Cui Lingyi had returned to Beijing and had actually gone to the Li family, Cui Zizhen was so angry that he used the family rules to beat the housekeeper.

"Master, please spare my life. Why don't you let me go to the Li family and invite the eldest lady back?"

Upon hearing this, Cui Zizhen put down the family rules in his hand.

"Then go quickly, and please don't come back to see how I deal with you."

"Yes, sir!"

At the same time, Cui Lingyi and others had arrived at Li's Mansion.

The two uncles and aunt had been preparing for several days.

Accommodation, food, and future maids and servants were all prepared.

After Feng Zhenzhu saw her own yard, she was extremely happy.

"Ali, Second Uncle is really considerate. He knows that I like places with water and lotus. This Fuqiu Garden is really to my liking!"

"Of course, didn't you hear your uncle and aunt say they wanted to adopt you as their adopted daughter?"

Shan Ya felt a little uncomfortable.

After all, in the eyes of others, he is now Ali's savior and a man.

Cui Lingyi noticed that she was unwell and comforted her in time.

"You don't have to worry, just live well. Although my uncle is an imperial physician, he is not deeply involved with the government. My two aunts are very nice people. You will know them after a long time!"

"Okay. Thank you, Sister Ali."

"You're welcome, we are sisters."

A few people were talking animatedly when Bu Yun and Buse came running over together.

"Miss, it's not good, it's not good."

"What's wrong? You're so panicked."

"Butler Cui is here and wants you to go back, young lady!"

"My father asked him to come?"

"Yes."

When Shan Ya heard this, she stood up and was about to hit someone.

"Sister A-Li, I'll chase him away for you!"

Cui Lingyi hurriedly stopped the man and said, "I have to go back home eventually..."

After thinking for a while, he said to Bu Se, "You and Bu Yun go back first and clean up Zi Teng Pavilion. Tell my father, I will be back in two days."

"Yes, miss!"

Bu Yunbuse went out and talked to the housekeeper, and sure enough, Housekeeper Cui stopped bothering him.

At this time, Buddha's Hand arrived, looking as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

I had already explained my identity when I was on the road.

Cui Lingyi also knew that it was time to let Foshou go back, so she pulled her to another room to talk.

"Buddha's Hand, are you going back to the Imperial City Division?"

"Yes, the Lord sent someone to look for it. I think it's because I didn't report it in time."

Cui Lingyi understood.

"I'm sorry to trouble you. I originally wanted to let you stay for a few more days to thank you for your protection along the way, but it seems that I can't do that. It's just..."

"Don't worry, my lady. My Lord only asked me to stay by your side as a guard. He didn't mean to hide some things. I didn't know. I don't think my Lord will do anything about it."

Seeing that Buddha's Hand had thought everything through so clearly, Cui Lingyi said no more.

"Thank you very much."

"Miss, you don't have to be so polite." Buddha's Hand bowed and when he was about to leave, he suddenly turned back.

"My dear, my master is cold on the outside but warm on the inside. He does many things in secret. Are you really not going to forgive him?"

Cui Lingyi shook her head slightly. "He did nothing wrong, so why should I forgive him? I just... don't want to love him anymore!"

Buddha's hand paused, said nothing more, and left quickly.
