The Fierce Farm Girl Has A Secret Space Chapter 2626: Not the Right Time (2)

Qi Jinghao watched the departing carriage, a chill settling in his eyes that turned his entire face sinister. However, upon hearing footsteps approaching, he quickly returned to normal.

"Was Fifth Prince rejected?" Qi Jingyun, who had left the palace early, walked over.

"Yes." Qi Jinghao glanced at Qi Jingyun, "Madam Ruyi really doesn’t give face. Why don’t you, Third Brother, say something on my behalf?"

"Haha." Qi Jingyun laughed, "Do you think it would be useful if I said something?" He raised his hand to pat Qi Jinghao’s shoulder, "I’m off." Then he left without hesitation.

Qi Jinghao couldn’t help but laugh a little, feeling more and more intrigued.

Qi Jingyi had completely moved into the General Residence, while Qi Jingxuan, Qi Jingyun, and others reported daily, making the Gu Family increasingly lively every day, especially during meals. It was practically a bustling melee, a scene of disorder.

Qi Jingyi originally wanted Yang Ruxin to directly claim he wasn’t allergic to Wei Yao, but Yang Ruxin refused, saying it wasn’t the right time.

Qi Jingyi deeply trusted Yang Ruxin’s words, and he discovered that when there were no outsiders around, he had no health issues even when he came into contact with women. He was often chased around the courtyard by Erya and other little girls, sometimes bumping into them without any incident.

The Crown Prince of Jin Country remained very quiet, and Wanyan Ningshuang hadn’t appeared again. Yang Ruxin estimated she had probably been discarded, and next Jin Country would likely send another princess over.

It’s truly a woman’s sorrow.

But she sincerely didn’t want Jiang Fangfei to marry over there. Even if she were to become the Crown Princess Consort, what of it? Wanyan Liang is not a good man. Once Jin Country gains power, the first to be sacrificed would be this princess in a political marriage.

But this matter still needs to be discussed with Jiang Fangfei herself. As long as she is willing, Yang Ruxin has a hundred ways to ensure she won’t have to marry.

And so, the twelfth lunar month arrived.

Today is the plum blossom banquet hosted by Yan Yuyu, the Princely Heir’s wife from Duke residence.

Actually, in Beijing, the noble ladies and women have various banquets year-round; in spring, they enjoy flowers, in summer, rain, in autumn, chrysanthemums, and in winter, snow. If one were to attend each one, they’d never have a free moment each month.

However, don’t underestimate these banquets; they are a form of typical madam diplomacy. Sometimes, the idle chatter among these women contains profound knowledge.

Since entering Beijing, Yang Ruxin has continuously been invited to various banquets, not only because of her status as Madam Ruyi but also her identity as the little Divine Doctor that everyone wants to curry favor with. Unfortunately, she rarely attends.

This time, she accepted Yan Yuyu’s invitation because the two families have had good relations in recent years, and Yan Yuyu is a decent person—a perfect opportunity to listen to some gossip.

Another reason is her desire for Erni to socialize more. Gu Yao has now entered officialdom, and as his wife, Erni naturally has to follow her husband’s lead and can’t always stay by Yang Ruxin’s side. So, she might encounter such occasions, and it’s best for her to adapt in advance.

The three little beans are almost five months old and have already started on solid foods; an occasional half-day without breastfeeding is fine.

It’s just that Yang Ruxin would suffer. After a long time without nursing, she would become engorged. In this era, without breast pumps, she’d have to find someplace to deal with it.

The Duke Residence is located in Qiongqi Store, while Gu Residence is in Gluttonous Store. Although they are in two different directions, the journey isn’t far. With a slow pace, it’s just an hour’s carriage ride.
