Ruby Ring

Yuan Ying talked about her experience since she left home last time. When she arrived at Yue Mei's old nest in the former Yan Kingdom, there was no Yue Mei or Yuan Ye there, only a trap left for her. Even though Lao Bai tried his best, the two were still trapped in the end.

Later, they were taken to Xingluo Island by Yue Mei. Min Rou said that she had seen Yue Mei go to the island with Yuan Ying and Yuan Ye. The reason why Lao Bai was not seen that time was because he was swearing at Yue Mei all the time when he was awake and couldn't stop. His emotions were extremely unstable, so Yue Mei knocked him out, put him in a box, and carried him to the island.

Yuan Ying was arranged by Mo Yan to be a "guinea pig". Yuan Ye, who had been injured and extremely afraid of water, escaped because he couldn't do it at all. The main reason why he was not killed was that Yue Mei and Mo Yan wanted to use him to control Yuan Ying to be obedient - Mo Yan's "experimental" subject, it is best not to resist after diving into the water, otherwise the result would be drowning by pressing his head, and he would not achieve his desired goal.

As for Lao Bai, given the past grievances and hatreds between him and Yue Mei, he was treated as Yue Mei's personal property and was only "deposited" on the island. Therefore, during the period of imprisonment, no one touched him or paid attention to him after Yue Mei left the island. He had never seen Mo Yan, and he didn't know that Shen Qingxue married Mo Yan. Of course, he asked Yue Mei about what happened to Shen Qingxue later, but Yue Mei hated Shen Qingxue the most, so how could she tell Lao Bai that Shen Qingxue followed the owner of Xingluo Island? Instead, she was full of foul language and fabricated some words that could stimulate Lao Bai the most and make him extremely painful.

It was not until Lao Bai took the antidote and really woke up in Jiaye City that he learned from Lao Mu that Shen Qingxue followed Mo Yan and gave birth to a daughter for him, and Su Liang was the granddaughter of Mo Yan and Shen Qingxue.

This was not a comforting thing for Lao Bai, because he knew that his simple and kind little sister was not willing to marry Mo Yan, but was forced. From the fact that Mo Yan is the owner of Xingluo Island, and Su Liang's mother died after giving birth to her, it is hard to say that Mo Yan cares about Shen Qingxue and their child.

But Lao Bai's hatred of Mo Yan does not conflict with his still considering Su Liang as the most important relative, and now there is Gu Xiaonuan.

After listening to Yuan Ying and Lao Bai's story, it was already late. Su Liang asked them to go to rest first and talk about other things tomorrow.

Lin Qi, who had been sitting next to Yuan Ying, holding her hand and listening quietly, stood up immediately after hearing the words, "Yuan Xiaoying, let's go home!"

Yuan Ying let go of Lin Qi's hand, "I want to sleep with Sister Liang tonight."

Su Liang's lips curled slightly, "I can. Great God, you won't object, right?"

Lin Qi winked at Gu Ling: If you are a brother, just say no quickly!

Gu Ling nodded slightly, "Okay."

Lin Xi grabbed Yuan Ying's hand again, interlocked his fingers, and held it tightly, "I don't care, you have to go home with me tonight! You can sleep with Su Xiaoliang tomorrow, and then I will sleep with Gu Xiaoling! Humph!"

"Okay then." Yuan Ying nodded.

Lin Xi:...So you teased him on purpose just now, right? They even teamed up to tease him? Su Liang and Gu Ling are so hateful! Yuan Xiaoying is so cute!

Yuan Ying went to find Yuan Ye, who was playing with the toys shared by Zheng'er and Ji Xiaoshu, and was very happy. When he saw Yuan Ying, he said that he would sleep with Zheng'er and Xiaoshu tonight.

Yuan Ying originally wanted to keep Yuan Ye here, but he felt relieved when he saw this, and smiled and asked Zheng'er and Ji Xiaoshu to take care of Yuan Ye.

Gu Xiaonuan had been coaxed to sleep by Cen Man, and Yuan Ying went to see her again, his eyes full of tenderness.

When Lin Qi finally pulled Yuan Ying out of Yuanming Pavilion, he breathed a sigh of relief, "I really thought you wanted Su Xiaoliang and not me."

"Why do you have to choose? I want both." Yuan Ying chuckled.

Lin Qi smiled, "That's fine, I support it! You said, I'm yours, you have to be responsible for me!"

The next moment, Lin Qi's hand was thrown away by Yuan Ying again. He was so depressed. This happened many times, but every time he still felt like he was being abandoned.

As a result, Yuan Ying just raised her hand and knocked on Lin Qi's forehead, and then took the initiative to hold his hand, "Don't look like I'm bullying you, okay? Xiaoliang and Gu Ling will think I'm a tigress."

Lin Qi straightened his chest and raised his head, "I understand. Wife, come home with me to see my parents!"

"It's so late, they are all asleep, right? Or should I stay at Xiaoliang's place tonight and go tomorrow?" Yuan Ying asked.

"No, let's go now!" Lin Qi pulled Yuan Ying forward, as if afraid that Su Liang would suddenly appear and take Yuan Ying away again.

"You're too slow." Yuan Ying let go of Lin Qi and ran past him to the front.

It was originally quite romantic to run hand in hand under the moon, but Yuan Ying turned it into a competition. Lin Qi naturally couldn't admit defeat, so the two of them chased each other and rushed to the gate of Su's house, leaving Qi Yan, who was about to greet them, stunned.

"I won, you sleep on the floor tonight." Yuan Ying said with a smile.

Lin Qi sighed, and suddenly found Qi Yan next to him. His expression froze, and he immediately grabbed Qi Yan, "You didn't hear anything just now, do you understand?"

Qi Yan suppressed his laughter and nodded, "I understand, Mr. Lin, don't worry."

"If I find out that you told Gu Xiaoling about it, I will never let you go!" Lin Qi threatened.

Qi Yan nodded, "No." Since he only mentioned Gu Ling, it's okay to tell Su Liang, right?

Lin Yu seemed to see what Qi Yan was thinking, and immediately said, "Don't tell Su Xiaoliang, don't tell anyone!"

"Oh." Qi Yan finally laughed. But since Lin Qi cares so much about this kind of thing, he should not publicize it, after all, it is about a man's dignity.

Leaving the Su Mansion and walking on the way to the Lin Mansion, Yuan Ying suddenly pulled the reins and stopped, "I forgot something."

Seeing Yuan Ying turning the horse's head, Lin Qi frowned and asked, "What is it? Is it about Xingluo Island?"

Yuan Ying shook her head, "It's really rude for me to go empty-handed like this."

Lin Qi then realized what was going on and hurriedly pulled Yuan Ying, "We have all decided to spend our lives together privately, so don't worry about this. Dad and Mom will never care about these things. If you really want to go to Su Xiaoliang's house to find some valuable things to give them, it would be awkward. It's so late, let's go back quickly, and go to bed after seeing Dad and Mom, we are so tired."

"Okay then." Yuan Ying thought about it and it was indeed the truth.

Arriving at the gate of Lin's house, Lin Qi reminded Yuan Ying again that she must give him some face in front of her parents, please...

The gate of Lin's house was closed. When someone knocked on the door, the guard opened the door and was stunned to see Lin Qi, "Master! It's the Master who is back!"

"And the Madam." Lin Qi threw the reins to the guard and walked in holding Yuan Ying's hand.

In fact, Lin Qi had basically never lived in his home in the capital. When the Lin family moved to the capital, he stayed in Jiaye City. Later, he only accompanied Yuan Ying back once and left soon.

Father Lin and Mother Lin were awakened. When they learned that it was Lin Qi who was back, they were very happy and quickly got dressed and got up.

"Qi'er!" Mother Lin walked over quickly, followed by Father Lin.

Lin Qi stood up, opened his arms, and greeted him with a smile on his face. Yuan Ying, who was originally sitting, also stood up. Seeing the warm and sweet relationship of the Lin family, she couldn't help but feel a little envious. Her only relatives were Yue Mei and Yuan Ye, but the "grandmother" she had called for so many years was just a vicious woman, and it was very likely that she had no blood relationship with her, but had kidnapped her. Yuan Ye needed her care, like her child.

Just when Lin Qi was about to hug Lin's mother, Lin's mother saw Yuan Ying standing behind him, her eyes lit up instantly, pushed Lin Qi away, walked over quickly, and held Yuan Ying's hand, "You are Miss Yuan, right? I always heard Xiao Liang mention you, and finally met you."

Lin Qi was not disappointed, hugged his father's arm and smiled, which was the effect he wanted.

Lin's father whispered to Lin Qi, "Bring Miss Yuan here so late..."

Yuan Ying had a home in the capital, which was the Su Mansion, so it was unusual for her to follow Lin Qi home in the middle of the night.

Lin Qi blinked, "Dad, guess."

Father Lin frowned and pulled Lin Qi away a little, "Could it be that you bullied the girl?"

Lin Qi shook his head, "I'm not that kind of person."

Over there, Mother Lin had already enthusiastically pulled Yuan Ying to sit down and asked about her well-being. In fact, she thought the same as Father Lin, Yuan Ying came to their house so late, that must be something with Lin Qi, maybe Lin Qi bullied the girl.

Although Yuan Ying was very close to Su Liang, it was the first time that an elder treated her so well, and she, who was always domineering and unrestrained, became embarrassed.

Lin Qi was very happy. He cleared his throat and announced solemnly, "Dad, Mom, Yuan Xiaoying and I have already married in Jiaye City!"

Who knew that as soon as he finished speaking, Lin's father picked up the feather duster in the small hall, and Lin's mother also changed her face, stood up and twisted Lin Qi's ears.

Yuan Ying frowned. Could it be that Lin's father and mother were unhappy about their secret marriage? Indeed, both of them were a little impulsive at the time. Since ancient times, marriage has been decided by parents...

"It is your blessing that Miss Yuan is willing to marry you. You are so foolish and treat marriage as a joke!" Lin's father said and hit Lin Qi with a feather duster.

While twisting Lin Qi's ear, Lin's mother changed positions with Lin Qi, blocking him and Lin's father, "Qi'er, you are too naughty!"

Lin Qi quickly begged for mercy, "Dad, Mom, I know I was wrong, it's all my fault for being impulsive."

Lin's mother didn't let go of Lin Qi, and looked at Yuan Ying with an apologetic look, "Xiaoying, it was Qi'er who was naughty. You didn't tell your family about getting married in Jiaye City, and you suffered so much injustice. I will definitely teach him a lesson. As for the marriage, I will choose an auspicious day and marry you into the family in a grand manner. What do you think?"

Yuan Ying shook her head, "Aunt, don't blame him. It was me who proposed to get married. Because the situation was special at that time, I would forget about our relationship after taking the antidote to restore my memory."

Lin's father and mother suddenly realized. Lin Shan lost her memory and recovered, and Yuan Pei was also very depressed. They were naturally very clear about this and understood it all at once.

Father Lin hit Lin Yi again through Mother Lin, "Look, Miss Yuan said it clearly in one sentence, but you were mute just now?"

Lin Yi: ... I dare not speak.

"I see." Mother Lin let go of Lin Yi and went over to hold Yuan Ying's hand, "You are so good to Yi'er, otherwise he would be so sad if you forgot him. But the marriage still needs to be done according to our agreement, otherwise it will be against etiquette and people will inevitably gossip about it in the future. I can't let such a good daughter-in-law be talked about."

Yuan Ying looked at Mother Lin's earnest eyes, how could she say no?

Seeing this, Lin Yi quickly said, "I have no objection! I want to spend another wedding night!" He was hit again after he finished speaking.

"I heard from Xiaoliang that you are the most free and easy person. You don't have to be afraid of trouble. You don't have to do anything. Just go and get married with Si'er when the time comes. We will prepare everything. You don't know that after his father and I came to the capital, we have been idle all day long. We are just waiting for Si'er to bring you back and arrange a marriage for you!" Lin's mother said earnestly.

Yuan Ying smiled, "Then I'll bother my uncle and aunt."

Lin's mother became happy and said, "Just promise, choose an auspicious day tomorrow, and we will get married within the year."

Lin Wei reminded, "Yuan Xiaoying, it's time for you to change your words."

"Before, the visit to the church didn't count. Let's wait until after the official marriage." Yuan Ying said and stood up, "I'd better go back to Xiaoliang's place to stay tonight."

"That's fine." Lin's father nodded, "Ji'er, please send the original girl back and then come back."

Lin Wei was dumbfounded. Things were different from what he planned. He originally thought he could sleep with Yuan Ying again tonight, but why did he suddenly change from being married to being engaged?

Lin's mother took Yuan Ying's hand and walked her to the door, "Don't think too much about it. We are very happy that you can be with Jie'er, but you juniors don't care about this. As elders, we can't let Jie'er act recklessly." . Even if we don’t care, outsiders will inevitably make irresponsible remarks in the future. As time goes by, there are some things that we cannot afford to worry about.”

Yuan Ying knew that Lin's mother was really doing her best. The living environment in Kasyapa City and the capital city are actually very different. The capital city is full of high-ranking officials and nobles. Although the Lin family has only been in the capital city for a year, they were once a famous family of generals in the Qian Kingdom, and the people they associate with now are not ordinary families. As long as Lin Xin is willing, he will have a bright future. Yuan Ying followed Lin Wei without a matchmaker or a retainer. No matter how kind Lin Wei was to her, she could not stop outsiders from making irresponsible remarks. She doesn't care, but what if she has children in the future? And this will definitely have an impact on the reputation of the Lin family. Lin Shan is not married yet, and Lin Wei still has uncles and brothers. Family tradition cannot be bad.

This is different from Su Liang and Gu Ling's original situation. Neither of them has any elders, and they have special status. Even so, Gu Ling specially invited Mr. Qin to propose marriage, and Su Liang had the Lin family and the Xing family to take care of her. And Lin Lin has his parents here. If Yuan Ying is really allowed to live in the Lin family, Lin's father and Lin's mother will not be able to hold their heads high in the future.

Yuan Ying was a little apologetic, "Auntie, it's all my fault. It's because I don't understand the rules."

Lin's mother shook her head quickly, "Don't say that, we are all a family. You go to Xiaoliang's place to rest first. Tomorrow we will invite a matchmaker to come to the house and formalize the marriage. I will take Shan'er to see it then. you."

Lin's father frowned and scolded Lin Xin again, and Lin Xin also realized that it was inappropriate to have a hasty marriage before, and it was all his fault.

So, in the middle of the night, Lin Xie sent Yuan Ying back to Su Mansion. Lin's father and Lin's mother were afraid that Yuan Ying would think too much, so they sent her outside the gate.

…

The lights in Yuanming Pavilion are still on.

Gu Ling and Su Liang had just recently learned the biggest secret of Xingluo Island from Yuan Ying, and were discussing the next plan.

Su Liang was a little surprised when he heard Lin Xi calling them from below, "Why are you back again?"

Gu Ling's expression was indifferent, "His parents will not let Yuan Ying stay here tonight." It was obvious that he had expected this.

Su Liang was stunned for a moment, "Yes, but I didn't think about it." After all, she was a time traveler and had no parents when she came here, so she was not very sensitive to this kind of thing.

When the two of them went downstairs, they saw Lin Wei looking depressed, "I was beaten by my parents."

Yuan Ying smiled, "Looks like I can sleep with Sister Liang tonight!"

"Gu Xiaoling, can I sleep with you?" Lin Wei asked.

Gu Ling replied coldly, "Get out."

"Okay, I'm off. Yuan Xiaoying, see you tomorrow, I'll come to propose marriage tomorrow." Lin Xin reluctantly held Yuan Ying's hand.

"I know, let's go." Yuan Ying waved her hand.

Su Liang asked Gu Ling to send Lin Wei off, "His martial arts skills are average. If he is kidnapped by Sheng Yue, the original sister will have no choice but to choose a better son-in-law."

Lin Xin:......

Gu Ling was really going to see Lin Wei off, which surprised him, but he was also very happy.

After the two of them left, Su Liang pulled Yuan Ying upstairs, "Just in time, there is one more thing I want to ask Sister Yuan about Xingluo Island."

"What?" Yuan Ying asked, "I told you everything I remember."

"Maybe there is something that Sister Yuan saw but didn't pay attention to." Su Liang said, "Did Mo Yan wear any jewelry? For example, a bracelet or a ring."

Yuan Ying went to Su Liang's room, took a look at the sleeping Gu Xiaonuan and sat down. After thinking for a long time, she said, "There is a ring with a ruby ​​on it. It looks extraordinary."

Su Liang also asked Min Rou, and she also mentioned the ring and said that Mo Yan had never taken it off.

"Is that something special?" Yuan Ying asked.

Su Liang nodded, "Maybe." She was just guessing with Gu Ling about what Mo Yan's storage space might be. If you can grab it, that would be the best.
