Chapter 84 Ren Jingxuan's Reluctance
Shen Yiran tapped Yun'er's head lightly and said angrily, "You have such a small head that you always like to think about random things. There is no magical method. Stop thinking about it. Come on, follow me to the main courtyard."
Yun'er stuck out her tongue and replied obediently, "Yes, Crown Prince's Consort."
Soon, the master and servant arrived at the main courtyard.
In the main courtyard, Father Ren was sitting in the main seat with a worried look on his face. His brows were furrowed, and his hands were unconsciously folded together, rubbing them constantly. The wrinkles on his forehead seemed to have deepened a little. His eyes were wandering, as if he was deeply trapped in a very difficult problem.
Shen Yiran walked in gracefully, bowed and said, "Meet father."
"No need to be polite, just sit down!" Ren's father ordered. There was deep anxiety in Ren's eyes, and his voice seemed particularly heavy, as if his words carried a heavy burden.
Shen Yiran sat down slowly as she was told, her eyes as calm as a lake, and she looked quietly at Ren's father.
Father Ren looked at Ren Jingzhi and his wife, and thought to himself: His daughter-in-law is indeed as beautiful as a fairy. But when he thought of the wolf-like eyes of those ministers and young masters when they looked at her at the flower-viewing banquet that day, he couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Sometimes this stunning beauty can also be a disaster. If it is coveted by someone with evil intentions, it may bring disaster to the family.
He also heard a little about what happened between the couple in the palace. So he warned them: "The prince appears to be dignified, but in fact he is a womanizer. Now that Yi Ran has revealed her true face, the prince will definitely try to take her for himself. I predict that he will make a move soon, and we must prepare a response plan in advance, just in case."
As he said this, Ren's father's face was filled with deep worry, and that sad expression seemed to be able to squeeze out bitterness.
Ren Jingzhi, who was standing by, heard this and clenched his fists tightly, his knuckles turning white. He said coldly, "I will never let him succeed!"
His chest heaved violently, his heart burning with anger, filled with resentment towards the prince and worry about his wife.
Shen Yiran was not too worried about this and said, "Father, please don't worry. Although the prince is greedy for women, he values his life more. At least he will not pose a threat to my daughter-in-law in the near future."
"Father, please relax, Ranran can do it." Ren Jingzhi said with some pride.
Father Ren frowned, with some doubt in his eyes, "This matter is very serious. If there is a mistake, our whole family will suffer."
Ren Jingzhi looked at his father and comforted him, "Father, don't worry too much. You are also aware of Ranran's medical skills. Since she dared to agree to this matter, she must be fully confident."
Shen Yiran nodded slightly, her expression firm, "Father, I have studied the prince's illness carefully and I am confident that he can be cured."
Father Ren suddenly looked at Ren Jingzhi and asked, "Zhi'er, how are you now?"
"Father, the toxins in my body have been completely cleared and my life is no longer in danger."
After hearing this, Ren's father's frown instantly relaxed, his face was full of joy, and he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's great. I've been worried about you these days."
Father Ren's eyes were filled with gratitude, and he smiled at Shen Yiran and said, "Yiran, you are really a great contributor to our family! It is really a blessing for Zhier to have a daughter-in-law like you who is so skilled in medicine and kind-hearted!"
When Ren Jingzhi heard his father's praise, in addition to gratitude towards Shen Yiran, he actually had the idea of living with her forever. He suddenly regretted signing the cooperation agreement with her. He thought that when he could stand up again, he must steal the agreement and destroy it.
Thinking of this, Ren Jingzhi quickly agreed with his father and said, "Yes, father. Ranran is not only an excellent doctor, but also a smart and courageous person. If it weren't for Ranran at the flower-viewing banquet in the palace, I'm afraid I wouldn't have seen my father by now." Ren Jingzhi's words were full of deep admiration and gratitude.
As soon as these words were spoken, the three of them felt scared. Yes, if there was even the slightest mistake, not only would Ren Jingzhi and Shen Yiran be thrown into an abyss from which there would be no escape, but hundreds of people in the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Shen Mansion would also be implicated.
Father Ren nodded repeatedly and said solemnly: "Such a good daughter-in-law must be cherished. Jingzhi, you must take good care of Yiran and never let her suffer any grievances."
A blush appeared on Ren Jingzhi's face, and he responded, "Father, I understand." At this moment, he secretly swore in his heart that he would make Shen Yiran live a happy life.
Shen Yiran smiled slightly and said softly: "Father, you are too serious. Saving the dying and healing the wounded is the duty of a doctor, not to mention that Jingzhi is my husband!"
At this moment, her heart was filled with warmth, and she believed that everything she had done was worth it. She thought to herself, "It is really a blessing to be able to travel to a family full of warmth.
However, I don’t know how long this happiness can last, and I always feel anxious and worried.”
Father Ren looked at the two of them and said, "I will not disturb you any more. Yiran, you should be careful when you arrange to find medicine. I will go to see Aunt Su later."
After Father Ren mentioned this, Shen Yiran almost forgot about Aunt Su. She asked, "Father, how is Aunt Su doing now?"
Father Ren sighed and said with a worried look on his face, "Ever since Aunt Su was frightened last time, her body has not recovered. She always has nightmares and night sweats at night, and is also in a trance during the day. I have consulted many doctors, and they all said that it was the sequelae of excessive fright."
Shen Yiran was secretly delighted, thinking that this was the backlash of the attempt to kill her, but she pretended to be concerned and said, "Father, don't worry too much. I think Aunt Su is a lucky person and will get better slowly."
Father Ren frowned and said worriedly, "I hope so, but the condition has not improved, and I am really worried."
After saying this, he heaved a long sigh, turned around slowly, and walked away slowly. His back, which used to be straight, was slightly bent at this moment. The lonely figure gradually went away until it finally disappeared at the corner of the corridor.
Shen Yiran looked at Ren's father's disappearing back. Somehow, she felt that Ren's father's back was so lonely and desolate. This loneliness was not caused by Aunt Su's illness, but rather the loneliness after a loved one left.
She couldn't help but ask Ren Jingzhi: "How is the relationship between father and mother?"
Ren Jingzhi's grip on the wheelchair suddenly tightened. He never expected Shen Yiran to suddenly ask this question.
"My mother passed away when I was 8 years old." Ren Jingzhi spoke slowly, his voice trembling a little, "But I remember that my father doted on my mother when I was a child. On summer nights, our family of three would sit in the yard, my father would gently fan my mother with a palm-leaf fan to drive away mosquitoes, and my mother would smile and tell us interesting stories.
In spring, my father would take my mother and me for an outing in the countryside. My mother would laugh among the flowers, and my father's eyes would always follow her.
In winter, we sat around the fire, my father would carefully peel chestnuts for my mother, and my mother would tenderly knit a sweater for me. "
After that, Ren Jingzhi said: "Those times are the warmest moments in my memory."
At this moment, his eyes were slightly red, but a nostalgic smile appeared on his face.
