Chapter 729: Is Yi Jie Upset?Li Rui was shocked to see the bright sun in the sky when she woke up.          

    

She looked at the bedside to see it empty.      

Hurriedly, she looked at the mirror. When she was sure that she looked presentable, she stepped out of the room.    

"Li Hua"    

As soon as she came out of the room, she called for Li Hua.      

"Young Miss, you woke up."    

Li Rui paused for a moment, It was after many days that Li Hua was calling her Young Miss. She had started to call her Madam and Li Rui knew it was she who had asked her to do so because Xi Ying had wanted that.      

He had wanted everyone to call her that in Xi Manor because it showed her authority as his main wife.      

However, she couldn't help but feel a little normal and happy when she heard the familiar address.      

Perhaps it was because of the familiar Li Manor that Li Hua also forgot or perhaps she just wanted to call her like this.      

Whatever it was, Li Rui decided not to stop Li Hua this time.      

Her anxiousness also lessened and she asked Li Hua a little calmly now    

"Where is Xiao Ling …and where is Ying? Did he leave already?"    

"Yes, Young Miss. His excellency left already. As for Young Master, he woke just a few moments ago. Liu Lan had taken him to get ready for breakfast."    

Li Rui sighed and nodded her head.      

Now she remembered slowly that she had woken up when Xi Ying had woken up early morning but then she went back to sleep.      

"Why did you not wake me up?"      

"His excellency ordered Liu Lan not to disturb Young Miss' sleep."    

Li Rui sighed yet again and silently decided to go and wash up.      

However, she had taken just a step when Li Hua called out to her    

"Young Miss, Second Madam had come to look for you."    

"Mother?"    

Li Rui asked in confusion and suddenly bit her lips as if she understood why her mother had come to look for her.      

She didn't wake up on the time.      

She was sure that her mother would be upset with her.      

"I will go and see her after breakfast."        

    

Li Rui said in a low voice already knowing what she will get to hear. At least for the day she was in Li Manor, she needs to wake up on time regardless of how sleepy she felt.      

Li Hua looked at her mistress back as she left.      

Liu Lan had told that she doubted that some argument might have happened between Lord Xi and Second Madam Li.      

However, since Liu Lan was not sure she decided not to tell her mistress anything.    

She hoped that everything was fine.

Li Rui got ready in hurry and then had breakfast with her son. Afterward, she left her courtyard with her son.      

However, she had just stepped out of her courtyard when she came across someone whom she had not met at all since yesterday.      

Li Rong stood in front of her. When she noticed Li Rui, she also stopped amidst her steps.      

Her eyes went to Xi Ling and then again at Li Rui.      

There was silence between them for a few moments before Li Rui said softly      

"Greetings, Elder Aunt."    

Li Rong, however, didn't acknowledge her greeting. She had one last glance at her and then at Xi Ling who was frowning at her seeing her lack of response.    

The small bun's frown deepened when he saw that Li Rong left without responding to her mother's greeting.      

He looked at his mother who was silently looking at Li Rong's back.      

Xi Ling wondered if his mother was sad.      

The thought didn't settle with him.      

But he would handle that. If his mother was sad, he would make her happy again. But this woman…he will never greet her, Hmph!    

.    

.    

.    

When Li Rui reached her mother's room, she frowned seeing the anxious nanny standing outside her mother's room.    

"Nanny"        

    

She called out softly and the old nanny immediately turned around to see her. The old nanny's face brightened up when she saw Li Rui and she said      

"Young Miss is here."    

She quickly walked to Li Rui. When her eyes went to Xi Ling, they become softer. She looked back at Li Rui and soon her anxiousness came back when she remembered her mistress.      

"Young Miss, it is good that you are here. Please go and talk to Madam. She is not allowing this servant to go inside otherwise this servant would have gone."    

Li Rui frowned and asked the nanny.    

"What happened?"    

The old nanny also didn't know the whole story.    

She was told only bits and pieces by General Li who had ordered that to make sure that Yi Jie would be fine by the time he would return from the Imperial Palace.      

In fact, Madam had been fine until General Li left. That's why, only General Li had decided to go to the Imperial Palace.      

However, as soon as he left, Yi Jie ordered the old nanny to leave the room and hence the old nanny couldn't help but worry if she was alright or not.      

When Li Rui was told by old nanny whatever little she knew, she was surprised. A moment later, she felt helpless.      

She didn't know exactly whom she should try to make understand.      

Her mother…Li Rui knew that she couldn't change her mother's mindset. Even her father couldn't do that.      

She seemed to have heard from her third Aunt that even during her pregnancy, her mother used to wake up early regardless of how sleepy she used to feel.      

She would always be there when her father needed to get ready for the Imperial Palace. It was rare for her mother not to be present at such a moment and this rare thing happened when her father would be very worried about her health when she would be sick and hence strictly order her to rest.      

Though it was another thing that later on it would be her father only who would try to make up with his mother who wouldn't talk to him.      

So what could she do?      

Should she try to make Xi Ying understand …    

Li Rui immediately shook her head.      

It was impossible.

She could already feel Xi Ying's disappointment-filled eyes on herself at this thought of trying to make him understand.    

Li Rui sighed.      

She could think of the solution to this problem later on. For now, it was mandatory to make sure that her mother was fine.    

Li Rui knocked on the door.      

There was no response.          

    

A moment later, she opened the door. Fortunately, it was not locked.      

The old nanny couldn't enter the room since she had not been allowed to do so. However, Li Rui could afford to do that.      

The small bun also followed his mother, though his face was wrinkled completely as if he was very displeased by something.      

Li Rui sighed in relief when she stepped inside the room.      

Her mother was seated on the couch and she seemed to be knitting something.      

Fortunately, she was not crying.      

She also knew that her mother had already noticed her presence but never raised her head to look at her.      

Li Rui also didn't say anything and silently walked to sit beside her mother on a separate couch.      

Xi Ling sat beside her mother and glanced between his mother and his grandmother. Seeing that both of them were silent, he also decided to stay silent.      

A few moments passed and Yi Jie finally raised her head.      

Li Rui smiled softly. She was about to comfort her mother and apologize for waking up late when her mother suddenly presented the woolen in her hand and showed it to her.    

"Rui, see! I am making a pair of socks for the child. Will it look good?"    

It took Li Rui a few moments to respond to her mother's words. She blinked as she looked at whatever her mother was showing her and then at her mother.      

She didn't understand anything by looking at the wool.      

How could she when she didn't even know anything about knitting? And her mother seemed to be in the initial stage of knitting these socks.      

However, she was afraid that if she said that she couldn't understand then it would only make her mother angrier.      

So she nodded her head and smiled      

"Yes, Mother. It will look good on the child. I promise you that the child would wear these socks first."    

Yi Jie was very happy when she heard that.      

With a bright smile on her lips, she started knitting again.      

Li Rui was now confused.      

Contrary to what she expected, her mother didn't even look sad.      

She didn't know if she should talk to her about the matter or not. She sat there for some time and in the end, left without talking about the matter for which she had come here.    

She was afraid that she would make her mother sad if she talked about it.      

After leaving the room, she assured the old nanny that her mother was fine and then finally left the room.          

    

On her way to her courtyard, Li Rui came across her youngest sister from the third household, Li Sying.      

Li Sying was very happy when she saw her sister. She immediately walked to her and hugged her tightly.      

Her eyes brightened when she saw Xi Ling and she immediately asked her sister    

"Third Sister, can I take Xi Ling with me? I will just play with him."    

Li Rui looked down at her son who shook his head in 'no' indicating her to say 'no'. However, she smiled and nodded her head.      

The small bun looked as if he had been betrayed by his mother. However, he couldn't complain as he soon was dragged away by Li Sying to her courtyard.
