Why My Domineering Prince Regretted Filing for Divorce?-Chapter 67: You are very much like your father.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law left the study and walked toward the East Courtyard.

It was extremely quiet along the way.

Speaking of which, Shang Ruyi had been married into the Yuwen Family for more than a month, but for some reason, she had never been alone with her mother-in-law. At this moment, holding her thin arm and walking slowly forward, she could feel that her mother-in-law’s health was indeed poor. After just a few steps, her breathing became uneven.

Shang Ruyi said softly, "Mother’s health is not good, you really need to take good care of yourself."

Guan Yunmu still did not speak.

Shang Ruyi was not embarrassed, and just supported her into the room in the East Courtyard. Like Yu Wenye’s room, it was empty and large, with very few decorations, appearing very plain. A faint medicinal fragrance lingered in the air, giving a sense of being kept at a distance.

Shang Ruyi helped her to sit down and poured a cup of tea to place by her hand, then said, "Mother, please rest well. If there are no instructions, I will take my leave."

After speaking, she was about to leave.

But Guan Yunmu suddenly said, "Ru Yi, stay a moment."

"...?"

Shang Ruyi was taken aback, surprised that she would actually call her, and quickly stopped and turned around, saying, "Does mother have any instructions?" freeweɓnovel~cѳm

Guan Yunmu looked at her for a while longer, pointed at the chair next to her, and said, "Sit, sit down and talk."

Shang Ruyi walked over, apologized, and sat down lightly.

The room was very quiet, and the two of them barely moved. Only a wisp of light smoke rising from the incense burner on the table seemed to be the only sign of life in the room. Shang Ruyi lowered her eyelids uneasily, wondering what her mother-in-law wanted to say to her.

Was it about family affairs?

Or about Yu Wenye?

While she was speculating, she heard Guan Yunmu say, "The fruits and snacks you sent recently taste good, I’ve enjoyed them."

Upon hearing this, Shang Ruyi quickly said, "It’s good if mother likes them."

Guan Yunmu looked at her, with a bit of a smile mixed in the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, and said, "The things you choose surprisingly suit my taste. Do you understand medical knowledge?"

Shang Ruyi said, "When I was young, Ru Yi followed my father to the Turkic area and learned some from the doctors there."

"I see,"

Guan Yunmu nodded, looked her over again, and said, "You resemble your father quite a bit."

Shang Ruyi said in surprise, "Mother knows my father too?"

Guan Yunmu said, "Our families have been friends for generations. When I was young, your father even taught me how to ride a horse."

"Really?"

"He was very good at riding and said that when you ride a horse, you can see the great scenery from far away."

"..."

"It’s just that my body—wasted his good intentions."

Shang Ruyi found it hard to imagine that her mother-in-law was actually a family friend of her father. From her words, she could almost imagine that this frail and often ill noblewoman was also once innocent and lively in her youth. Unfortunately, time had not treated her kindly.

Shang Ruyi immediately said, "Mother, take good care of yourself; there will be beautiful scenery to see in the future."

Guan Yunmu said lightly, "I know my own body."

"..."

For a moment, Shang Ruyi didn’t know what further to say.

Not only because Guan Yunmu’s words were hard to respond to, but more importantly—she had been married into the Yuwen Family for more than a month, and Guan Yunmu had always been indifferent to her. Why was she behaving so differently today, becoming closer?

What did Guan Yunmu really want to say to her?
