  Ding Ruo sat in the Tingyu Pavilion with a smile on her face for a short while, and the accompanying mother deeply felt Ding Ruo's demeanor, secretly sighing that the Ding family was well-educated. Who says that a fallen phoenix is not as good as a chicken? Even if it falls again, it is still a phoenix. Ding Ruo had been estimating the time, put down her teacup, and at this moment bid farewell to the Qian family, leaving enough face for them. Next time they meet, it will be more pleasant. Just as Ding Ruo was about to speak, there was a voice from outside: "Miss Ding, the old master and mistress have summoned you."

  Ding Rou got up and followed her mother out the door. As soon as they stepped out of Tingyu Pavilion, Qian Zhao came up to them, dressed neatly, with a face full of apologies: "I'm really sorry, I'm truly sorry, if there's anything that was impolite, please don't blame me, Ding sister."

  "Miss Qian was being polite." In comparison to Qian Zhao's enthusiasm, Ding Rou stuck to her propriety and wouldn't have called Qian Zhao "sister" without a deeper relationship. Although Ding Rou had a good impression of Qian Zhao, there's an old saying that the people closest to you can hurt you the most. Having been betrayed by her own sister in her past life, Ding Rou found it hard to let go of her guard around someone she had only just met like Qian Zhao.

  Qian Lao Ye Qian Zhen was worried that Ding Rou had ulterior motives, and investigated Ding Rou's background. Ding Rou also had misgivings about the Qian sisters. Qian Zhao's eyes dimmed slightly, but Ding Rou's distant attitude towards Qian Qing went unnoticed by her. However, Qian Zhao could sense something amiss and smiled as she reminded him: "Ding younger sister, my aunt Chu Ling Wang is also here."

  Ding Ruo's eyes widened slightly, and Qian Zhao grasped her arm. "Don't worry, Aunt is here to thank you. Xie has explained the misunderstanding to Big Sister and Wang Gongzi, she's a benefactor of the Qian family." If it weren't for Ding Ruo's words, if something were to happen to Wang Gongzi's mother, the Qian family would be remembered with hatred by Wang Cheng. The Shenyang Palace wouldn't need to say much, just one glance would suffice, and the Qian family would find it difficult to stand in the capital again. Even having an aunt in the Chuling Palace wouldn't help. Although the people of the Shenyang Palace were simple, they were not easy to provoke.

  "It was Miss Money herself who came around, I didn't do anything. High-quality update"

  Ding Rou humbly replied a few words, secretly guessing the intention behind Chu Ling Wang's wife's actions. Given her status, she didn't need to meet Ding Rou, an unfavored concubine-born daughter, but she had Qian Zhao personally come to invite her, showing that she valued Ding Rou. As a woman standing in the back courtyard of the palace, Ding Rou never dared to pry into her affairs. Could it be because of what happened two days ago? It seemed that Wang Cheng was not a simple person after all. The third miss of the Ding family, Ding Min, only appeared when she heard rumors, and everything was just a coincidence - if she hadn't run into Qian Zhao while eating wontons, none of this would have happened later. Could it be that Ding Rou also had a chance to become the main character?

  Ding Rou and Qian Zhao walked into the living room, Ding Rou raised her eyelids and took in the layout of the Qian's living room. Unlike the luxurious decorations of a merchant's home, it had a hint of scholarly elegance. On the wall facing them hung authentic calligraphy and paintings by famous artists. Ding Rou spotted Su Dongpo's seal and knelt down to pay respects: "Greetings, Lady Chu Ling Wang, greetings, Old Master Qian."

  Since Ding Ruo entered, Qian Shi had been focusing on her. Although Ding Ruo's facial features were not the best, there were many women in the Qian family who looked better than her. What surprised Qian Shi was Ding Ruo's demeanor - calm, elegant, confident and radiant, without any hint of inferiority or self-pity that a concubine-born daughter would normally have. Even Chu Ling Wang's own daughter didn't have Ding Ruo's poise. Qian Shi smiled warmly and beckoned: "Miss Ding Liu, please rise."

  Ding Ruo's eyes flickered, and Mrs. Qian directly hit Ding Ruo's identity. In Ding Ruo's impression, Madam Ding's temperament would not spread Ding Ruo's evil reputation, so Ding Ruo lost face, and the Ding Mansion could look good? Ding Ruo guessed that it would be in the name of recuperation. Ding Ruo smiled: "Thank you, madam."

  Qian pointed to the side, "Sit down and talk." Qian had been observing Ding Rou, seeing her move with light steps, sitting in a chair, with her back straight and elegant demeanor, she had received extremely good upbringing. Qian nodded secretly, a hint of genuine smile on his face, glanced at his brother Qian Zhen in approval, he did not object to Ding Rou interacting with his niece.

  "Qian He should be the one to thank, but he didn't speak up for justice that day. It was fortunate that someone clarified the misunderstanding and opened Qian He's eyes, otherwise she might have been confused for a while."

  "Madam is being polite, it's Miss Qian who has come to her senses on her own, Ding Rou just said a few words of courtesy."

  Ding Ruo's humility was not pretentious, nor was it lukewarm. She didn't show any arrogance, and Qian Shi felt that Ding Ruo was even more admirable. He sighed and said: "A good daughter raised by the Ding family, I heard two days ago that Madame Lanling, who has a reputation for being virtuous among the nobles, is pregnant. Let me offer my congratulations to Sixth Miss. Madame Lanling has finally gotten her wish fulfilled, and the Ding household must be very lively and joyful."

  Ding Rou smiled slightly, "Sincerity will always be rewarded, and it's not unexpected that Big Sister would have a child. It's the result of her wishes for many years." Ding Rou remembered that Big Sister had been married for four years before getting pregnant today. The old lady she met at the Imperial Book Bureau must have been the Madame of Lanling Hou Mansion. No wonder she looked at herself differently, she must have seen Ding Rou before. From the few memories, it was clear that Ding Rou had visited Lanling Hou Mansion in the past.

  "It's true, having children is the only hope." Qian Shi felt deeply about this. She had stopped taking medicine and given birth to Yang Mo after Chu Ling Wang Fei had another son. Her heart was all on her son, not expecting him to inherit the title, just hoping he would be granted a title in the future.

  The conversation took a sudden turn, and Ding Rou swore to tell the truth: "Although the Ding manor is bustling, I don't live in the Ding manor, Madame Chu Ling Wang. I've always lived in the Zhuangzi, and that day I happened to be going into the city to buy some books to read, which is how I met Miss Qian. It was purely a coincidence, and they didn't blame me for my reckless words. I really admire Miss Qian's demeanor. As for apologizing, I don't dare set foot in the Qian manor again."

  Qian Shi took a look at the calm and composed Ding Rou, she didn't expect Ding Rou to be so open-minded, as if living in the Zhuangzi and living in the Ding Mansion were the same. Ding Rou was not arrogant about her achievements, Qian Shi thought, but Ding Rou's broad-mindedness was something Qian Shi rarely saw in young ladies of Ding Rou's age. Qian Shi couldn't help but look at Ding Rou with a higher regard, and asked: "I have treated Qian Qing and Qian Zhao as my own daughters, and they have told me about the benefits of marrying into the Ding family, which would be a great help to the Qian family. Should I go talk to Lady Ding about it?"

  "Madam Chuling Wang was kind and gentle, with a soft heart. Life at the villa was peaceful and serene, much more relaxing than in the mansion. Ting Ruo had gone to the villa to recuperate from her illness, and once she recovered, she would naturally return home. It was Mother's love for me that made this arrangement."

  Ding Ruo's face was rosy, her eyes were clear and bright, how could she be a sick person? Not a single word of resentment towards Mrs. Ding had ever come out of Ding Ruo's mouth, instead, it was because of Mrs. Ding's love that she could go to the villa to 'rest', giving her stepmother face like this, Qian Shi praised: "Miss Ding Liu is a straightforward and reasonable person, being friends with Qian Zhao Yu is a blessing."

  "Aunt, Ding's sister is very clever. She drew a sign on the wonton stall yesterday. I asked Xiaohong to buy wontons and she said that Wangji Wonton's business was booming, with the boss and his wife being extremely busy, and everyone was saying they had to thank Ding's sister."

  Mr. Qian hadn't heard Qian Zhao mention it, and after inquiring about the details, Mr. Qian, who had been silent all along, saw the bundle beside Ding Rou and asked: "Miss Ding Liu's visit must be for something important, please speak."
