Chapter 149 What did you do so far?
The little maidservant did not dare to disobey Lin's order. After hearing her instructions, she turned around and left in panic.
"Madam, this..."
Looking at the little maid's back as she walked away, Mother Qin's eyes were filled with worry.
In the past, Lin was most concerned about Liu Lanqi's affairs. As long as it was something he asked her to do, no matter how hard or difficult it was, she would do it.
There's something wrong with my wife today...
"It's okay."
Lin forced a smile and turned her gaze to the colorful flowers in the garden.
This is her home. Although there are many things here that make her dissatisfied, it is also the most important place to her.
She sat here waiting, not knowing what kind of result she wanted, she just wanted to know what Liu Lanqi was going to do next.
At the same time, she also wanted to know whether he would come to find her for Liu Tian'ai.
"Madam, you are in such a good mood to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the garden here."
A quarter of an hour later, Liu Lanqi came to the outside of the pavilion. His handsome appearance made it hard to tell that he was over 40 years old.
Hearing Liu Lanqi's voice, Lin turned around and saw him walking into the pavilion with a gentle smile on his face.
Back then, she was bewitched by her gentle smile full of tenderness and she has never let it go for twenty years.
The moment he saw Liu Lanqi coming over, Lin sighed softly, but tried hard to force a gentle smile on his face.
"Master, the scenery is beautiful today. It has been a long time since we two sat together to appreciate the flowers and drink tea..."
As Lin said this, she poured a cup of tea for Liu Lanqi and handed it to him.
"Madam is in a very good mood."
Liu Lanqi took the teacup, took a sip from his lips, and put it on the table.
"I haven't been in such a good mood for a long time."
Lin picked up the teacup in front of him and took a sip.
"Master, we have been married for twenty years, right?"
Not sure why Lin suddenly brought up this matter, Liu Lanqi nodded slightly.
"In the blink of an eye, we have all grown old..."
"Yeah, the kids have grown up."
Lin looked at the courtyard in the distance.
"I never understood the true meaning of the saying 'Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings' before. I always felt that I watched my children grow up, so how could I not feel sorry for them?
Now that Shujie is doing well, and Chener and Xier are both doing well in their studies, I feel relieved. I am now looking forward to my two sons getting married soon and having their own families, so that I can completely relax..."
From a mother's perspective, Liu Lanqi felt that what she said was right and nodded slightly.
"I thought so too."
"Since you and I agree, why don't we talk about Xi'er and Chen'er's marriage? I happened to be at a banquet a few days ago and met a few girls..."
All Liu Lanqi was thinking about now was the suffering of Liu Tian'ai in the Marquis' Mansion. He had no intention of thinking about his two sons at all. Moreover, in his opinion, his two legitimate sons were indeed outstanding and did not require their concern at all.
"Madam, you also said that children and grandchildren have their own blessings. Xi'er and Chen'er are still young, so we can take our time to get married. I..."
Lin interrupted with a smile, "Chen'er and Xi'er are already fifteen years old this year. When Shu'er was their age, they were already married, but now they haven't even settled down yet. How can I, as a mother, not be anxious?"
"Xi'er and Chen'er are both good kids. I feel relieved to have you, as their mother, worrying about them. But..."
"Master, do you want to talk about Sister Qi's marriage?" Lin smiled and said, "Sister Qi is only three months younger than Xi'er and Chen'er, and she is indeed at the age to discuss marriage. I wonder which family the master has chosen?"
"Sister Qi's marriage will naturally be decided by you, the mistress of the family..."
"I wouldn't dare."
Lin sneered and said, "Having Liu Tianyi is enough. I will only take care of my own children. The illegitimate children will still be taken care of by the master himself."
Looking at the mocking look in Lin's eyes when she mentioned Liu Tian'ai, I knew that after saying so much, she actually knew the real reason why I came to find her.
"Madam, Sister Ai..."
"Master, I can't help Miss Ai even if I can..."
"Sister Ai is your daughter..."
Liu Lanqi wanted to continue persuading her, but Lin interrupted with a sneer, "Compared to that daughter who never regarded me as a mother, I care more about Shujie."
With a soft sigh, Lin looked at Liu Lanqi calmly.
"Master, we have been married for more than 20 years and have never quarreled over anything. I have never argued with you about Aunt Tian. Please understand my heart as a mother and don't let me hurt my own daughter."
After saying that, Lin stood up and left.
Liu Lanqi stretched out his hand to stop Lin and frowned, saying, "Lin, Shujie'er is also my daughter. My palms and backs of my hands hurt, but the one who is suffering now is Aijie'er..."
With a bitter smile, Lin looked at Liu Lanqi steadily.
"Master, do you really care about Sister Ai?"
"I……"
Liu Lanqi really wanted to say that of course he cared about his daughter, but when the words came to his lips he couldn't say them.
"Master, with your ability, if you didn't want Miss Yi to marry into the Marquis's Mansion, you should have many ways to do it, but you still sent her to the Marquis's Mansion in the end.
The master is such a smart man, how could he not know that the Marquis's Mansion is different from the Liu Family, and that there is no one in the family to make decisions for Miss Yi, and that this is the life she will have to live after marrying in?
What did you do earlier? "
After saying that, Lin turned around and left without even looking at Liu Lanqi's ugly expression.
Lin left, and all the mothers and maids she brought with her also left. In the entire pavilion, only Liu Lanqi was left standing there.
"master……"
The housekeeper came over and looked at Liu Lanqi with heartache.
"Master, why didn't you tell Madam that you tried to stop her at first? It was the Third Miss who chose this path herself, and it was the Queen Mother who forced her to do so. Although you are the Minister of Personnel, what ability do you have to compete with the royal family?"
"What can you change by saying it?" Liu Lanqi said with pity. He sighed, "Lin has been doing nothing to embarrass my cousin and her children for the sake of my mother and me, but I still have a knot in my heart.
Now that Sister Ai has gone to the Marquis' Mansion and snatched the young Marquis away, I'm afraid both mother and daughter must hate me to death. What can I do?"
After Liu Lanqi finished speaking, he slammed his fist heavily on the stone table.
He didn't want to be so incompetent. It was because he gave birth to a brainless daughter who caused him so many troubles. Even the son-in-law he had his eyes on was snatched away by the third lady of the marquis's mansion.
"My Lord, be careful with your hands..."
"It's okay..."
Liu Lanqi flexed his fingers and said with a wry smile, "Maybe this is fate. It's her own fate that Sister Ai has this move today."
Hearing Liu Lanqi's words, the housekeeper's heart skipped a beat and he asked with concern, "Master, are you not going to take care of Miss Three?"
