After returning from Qing An Courtyard, when the first wife thought about it, she quietly dismissed the other maidservants and said in a low voice, ”Madame, please don't blame this servant for speaking too much. Your heart is simply too weak. Right now, the Clear Spring Academy is thinking of a way to give birth to a male child. If she gave birth to a male child, she would probably feel even more confident. ”
The first wife was stunned. That's right, she thought to herself. If this technique wasn't related to the Lian Clan, then it was always him who owed Lian Yanqing. All these years, he had often felt troubled.
”You're right. If we can get another child, one can make up for my regret. Two, something unexpected happens in the future, and Littlemoon has a backer. You can let the kitchen boil a bowl of Snow Pear Pig Lung Soup.” the First Lady ordered.
Zhou mama was overjoyed. ”This servant will go right away.”
The first wife walked to the bronze mirror and sat down. Looking at herself in the mirror, she raised her hand and caressed her face. She took a deep breath, closed her eyes and slowly exhaled.
”Apricot, give me some makeup.”
Two hours later, the first wife carried a bowl of soup to Lian Yanqing's study. When Lian Yanqing saw her, his eyes revealed a trace of surprise — —
At this moment, her face was covered with a thin layer of makeup. She wore a long, honey-colored dress with purple dots and silver threads on it. The jade earrings on her ears were swaying along her cheeks.
As expected of a girl from a rich family. This kind of temperament couldn't be imitated by anyone. Even Xiao Xianmin couldn't compare to this at her most beautiful time.
Being stared at like that, the First Wife's face turned slightly red as she said, ”Today, when the Old Mistress was having her meal, I saw that the Master was coughing, so I had Senior Servant Zhou cook a bowl of Snow Pear Pig Lung Soup and send it over. Old Master should quickly drink it when it's hot.”
”Thank you Madam.” Lian Yanqing picked up the bowl and slowly drank from it.
The first wife stood in front of the desk and looked at him. Currently, Lian Yanqing was at a man's best moment, regardless of power or appearance, he had already reached the pinnacle. She once truly loved him, wholeheartedly and wholeheartedly, without any distractions or favors …
”What is Madame thinking?” Lian Yanqing asked after he finished his soup and raised his head to see the First Madam in a daze.
”No, no.” She came back to her senses and smiled, ”Master is busy, I'll be leaving first.”
However, Lian Yan Qing's palm pressed down on the back of her hand that was about to reach for the bowl. The doctor's heart froze as he raised his head and looked at her in surprise.
”Madame, please stay behind and help me grind the ink.” Lian Yanqing took away the bowl and pulled the first wife to stand by his side as he spoke.
Lian Yanqing did not speak any further. He picked up a brush and continued to read the official documents. The First Lady's hands trembled as she picked up the ink, slowly grinding it on the inkstone.
”What …” At this moment, outside the study, the Xiao family only felt their vision turn black. The soup in their hands even spilled some of it, splashing onto the back of their hands.
”The First Lady is inside. This humble servant will go inform her now.” Lian Tian said.
”No need!” Madam Xiao called out to him, hiding her expression and forcing out a smile. ”There's no need to disturb the eldest wife and old master. I'll come again another day.”
Madam Xiao did not know how she managed to return to the Clear Spring Academy. As soon as she entered the house, she shut the door and ruthlessly smashed the bowl of soup into the ground.
