Although she had mentioned to Yu Wenye the night before to wake her up first, early the next morning, Shang Ruyi still opened her eyes early.
However, Yu Wenye was no longer in the room.
When Wo Xue and the others came to assist her with washing, upon Shang Ruyi's inquiry, she found out that he had left early for the military camp to handle a pressing matter.
Hearing this news, Shang Ruyi sat in front of the dressing table, gazing at herself in the copper mirror, and softly murmured, "Oh," without further comment.
It was Wo Xue who seemed to perceive Shang Ruyi's mood, and with a conciliatory smile, said, "Young Madam, don't be upset. Although this servant is newly arrived at the mansion, I heard from the family that our Second Young Master treats the military camp as home throughout the year. Before marrying the Young Madam, he wouldn't come back even after ten days or half a month."
"..."
"For the Young Madam, the Young Master stayed home for quite a few days this time."
