Chapter 10 Part1 (1/2)
Chapter 10, Part 1: Father
After that, Ling Jing Shu never said a single word.
After the morning greeting, the people in each family retreated. Only Madam Ling led the two Lu brothers to stay with Old Madam Ling for a talk.
Ling Jing Shu hold onto Ling Xiao and went to He Xiang court together.
When Madam Yao was still alive, Ling Jing Shu and Ling Xiao stayed with her in He Xiang court. So towards this place, they were naturally very familiar with it. After Madam Yao pa.s.sed away, He Xiang court soon ushered a new mistress.
When Madam Li married in, it was inconvenient for Ling Jing Shu and Ling Xiao to continue to live here, so they moved to Qiu Shui Pavilion. Later, when Ling Xiao met with an accident and became blind, Old Madam Ling took pity of him and let him stay in Yong He hall and take care of him herself.
Ling Jing Shu went to Yong He hall every morning to greet Old Madam Ling, at the same time she would greet Madam Li as well. This He Xiang court she had come lesser and lesser.
After her reborn, this was the first time Ling Jing Shu had set foot here.
Madam Li's superficial work had always been good, not to mention that Fifth Ling Master was around. She held onto Ling Jing Shu's hand and showed concern about her, acted as though she was a very kind mother, ”All these days, I have been thinking about your body, I couldn't eat and sleep properly. Now you have completely recovered, I can finally rest a.s.sured.”
Looking at Madam Li pretending to be kind to her, Ling Jing Shu's heart was filled with disgust.
Ling Jing Shu suddenly lost the patience of acting nice with her, she pulled back her own hand. She smiled back and said: “I am not a young child anymore. I can take care of myself, mother do not need to worry about me.”
Madam Li, “…”
Madam Li originally wanted to sell a well-behaved self in front of Fifth Ling Master, but she did not expect to be refuted by Ling Jing Shu. Having lost her face and her stomach was filled with anger, her face turned red and white and then white and red again.
Ling Ting looked at this scene, his look was quite subtle.
Fifth Ling Master also picked an eyebrow but he did not say anything.
Ling Fou, who was only six years old, didn't figure out what had happened. It's quite strange that everyone was not talking, ”Mother, why did you suddenly stop talking?”
Madam Li squeezed a smile out, “It's nothing.” Then she looked innocently at Fifth Ling Master and said, “Since master is in the residence today, we should all gather in He Xiang court. I will get the kitchen to prepare some good food and good wine.”
Fifth Ling Master agreed to it.
Going to the kitchen is kind of a small task. In fact, it did not need Madam Li to personally go there at all. She could have asked a maid servant to run errands for her to give them instruction.
