Rebirth of the High Gate Mistress

Chapter 88 The old lady said, what an injustice

After Li Lingjingshu left, she saw that Aunt Xu was still laughing. The old lady tilted her face and said, "My grandson has been embarrassed like this once in his life. I hope you can laugh at it."

Xu Yan replied: "I really didn't want to want to be like this caregiver like Ling."

 The old lady nodded: "My grandson is naturally affectionate and loyal."

There was a hint of pride in his tone.

As he said that, the old lady looked at Nanny Xu again and asked, "Did Qingluan go to see anyone again in the second half of the day? How's it going?"

Nanny Xu replied: "I ordered someone to check on her. She said everything was fine. Doctor Zhang prescribed some calming medicine. The princess also drank half a bowl of the white fungus porridge cooked in the small kitchen."

Hearing what Nanny Xu said, the old lady felt relieved a little: "This child's temperament is really getting more and more paranoid now."

Aunt Xu said tentatively: "Sister-in-law Zhou you sent there said that the princess went to Qingfeng Garden early the next morning after she came to the house. She also went there early in the morning today. She looked unhappy every time she came back. .”

Mother Xu is also a transparent person. There are some things that some people think they have done without leaving any trace, but they cannot hide it from the discernment of smart people.

It's just that this matter is of great importance, and even Aunt Xu doesn't dare to talk nonsense in front of the old lady, so she can only stop at it.

Hearing Nanny Xu mention this matter in detail, the old lady pondered and said in a lower voice: "Could it be that this girl has other thoughts?"

 Mother Xu sighed, acquiescing to the old lady's words.

Some things are obvious to onlookers, but the old lady treats her granddaughter as if she is a thorn in her side, which is actually blinding her eyes.

The old lady was silent for a long time and said leisurely: "If this is really the case, it is really an injustice."

Mother Xu asked: "The princess is about to get her haircut, what are your plans?"

 The old lady did intend to keep Qingluan by her side, but she never intended to give her to Li Ling. How could a granddaughter with such a temperament be able to shoulder the responsibility of being the housewife? Although the old lady loved her, she could not ignore the family business.

 The old lady is thinking about her grandson Li Xiang.

Li Xiang and Qingluan are about the same age, and the grandson has a gentle temperament, so he can naturally take care of his granddaughter.

But if, as she and Aunt Xu guessed, the granddaughter had thoughts about her grandson, this would be absolutely impossible.

　　Marry her to Li Xiang, and she will keep Li Ling in her heart. Under the same roof, there will be no confusion.

The old lady sighed: "That's all. She is a princess, and we may not be able to talk to each other about the marriage. Let's see what it means."

Mother Xu could naturally guess what the old lady was thinking. After hearing this, she said regretfully: "You are still thoughtful, but it's a pity."

The old lady looked at her and said: "This child is the only flesh and blood left by my miserable child. I wholeheartedly wish her well, but everything is fate. As for this marriage, it depends on her own destiny."

Li Ling and Jing Shu walked out of the gate of Anxi Hall. Li Ling stood there and asked Jing Shu worriedly: "Grandma really didn't make things difficult for you?"

With Li Ling protecting her like this, Jing Shu naturally obeyed. She nodded towards Li Ling: "Grandma understands things best. You still can't trust her."

Li Ling replied: "Of course I trust my grandmother. I'm just worried that Qingluan will talk nonsense in front of her and deceive her."

As he said that, he asked again: "After I left, did Qingluan come over again?"

Jingshu replied: "You were so fierce this morning, even I was scared when I saw you. How could she dare to come here again?"

　　When mentioning what happened in the morning, Li Ling was still angry: "It's good to let her know how powerful she is, but if you just let her act like she wants, trouble will happen sooner or later."

Having said that, Li Ling led Jing Shu towards Qingfeng Garden.

After dinner, Li Ling said to Jing Shu: "After the first lunar month, Your Majesty ordered me to go to Nanjun to inspect the city defense there."

Nanjun is close to Gaoshan Country and is the land bordering Daqi and Gaoshan Country. It is far away from here with thousands of mountains and rivers.

Jingshu thought about it and asked: "To go to Nanjun, do you have to pass through Chaozhou?" Chaozhou is the seat of Jingshu's mother's family. The current Chaozhou guard is Jingshu's uncle. She has lived with her mother in Chaozhou since she was a child. Later, her mother moved to Beijing. After Zhong passed away, her maternal grandfather's family was worried that her father would not have time to take care of her, so they took her back. They did not send her to her father until she became sensible, so Jingshu had a deep affection for her maternal grandfather's family.

Li Ling nodded and replied: "Chaozhou Governor Jiang Zhao is your uncle. Do you have any words or letters that you need me to take to you?

Jingshu said happily: "I want to go there with you."

 Li Ling flatly refused: "No!"

Jingshu said quickly: "You happened to be passing by anyway. I will go to my grandfather's house when I arrive in Chaozhou, and it won't affect your going to Nanjun for business. Why not?"

Li Ling looked at her and said: "The year before last, Wang Ren, the guard of Gunzhou, rebelled and defected to Gaoshan Kingdom, resulting in the loss of all five cities south of Gunzhou. Now if he wants to go to Chaozhou, he needs to take a detour. The mountains are high and the roads are far away. How can you bear it?"

If it weren’t for the sake of mentioning it, when it came to Chaozhou, Jingshu couldn’t wait to see the relatives of her maternal grandfather’s family. She hurriedly replied: “It’s okay! I’m not afraid of hardship on the road.”

Li Ling still refused: "To go there now, we have to cross a desert. Even a car can't get in. Please give up this idea."

Jingshu pouted and said: "If you walk, I will walk with you. If you ride a horse, I will ride with you. As long as you can take me there."

She pulled Li Ling and begged: "Is it okay?"

Li Ling still flatly refused: "On the one hand, the road to Nanjun is difficult. In addition, I have official duties, so it is not appropriate to take you with me."

"I just want to go." Jingshu pulled Li Ling's sleeves, shook them gently, and said coquettishly: "Please, I promise not to cause any trouble to you, just send me to my grandfather's house. I won’t delay your business.”

 “Is that okay?” She waved Li Ling’s sleeves and acted coquettishly with him again and again.

When it came to matters of principle, Li Ling refused to compromise at all. He still refused: "If I say no, it's no. Don't say more about this matter."

Jingshu lowered her eyes, bit her lip, and her long eyelashes became moist.

Li Ling looked at his little wife coldly and said, "Even if you cry, I won't take you with me."

Seeing that this trick didn't work, Jing Shu had to find another way. She pouted and said, "I've been married to you for so long, and you haven't taken me out yet."

Li Ling said: "Didn't I say that I went to see the lanterns with you on the Lantern Festival? Tomorrow is the fifteenth day. I will come back early and go out with you."

Jingshu muttered with a wooden face, "What's the point? I'm tired of seeing those same lanterns every year."

“Then I won’t go and see her.” After saying that, Li Ling broke away from her and left the house without looking back.

 At night, after Jingshu took a bath, Tete put on a new nightgown and went to bed early. When Li Ling returned and turned off the light and lay down, she took the initiative to lie on his chest.

The faint sweet fragrance hit her, and Li Ling's heart flag swayed. He reached out to untie her clothes, and pressed her down.

Looking at his little wife who was as docile as a kitten under him, he said, "As promised, I can't take you on this trip."

Jingshu immediately shrank and pushed him away in annoyance: "Why are you so stubborn?"

Li Ling looked at his little wife, sighed, and said with a sneer: "If you say you can't take her with you, you can't take her with you. You have used all thirty-six strategies, and there is no way I can change my mind."

　　　Recently, the ratings of the article have been lowered a lot. Yesterday, I was chatting with a few writers about this matter, and I heard that some people deliberately gave bad reviews. Everyone has encountered it.

It’s really incredible!

Why is this so? There are thousands of good articles to read, just don’t like passing by.

Ah Que also heard that some people with ulterior motives used trumpets to deliberately give negative reviews to other large articles in order to lower the scores of the articles. oops! This this. . . . . . This can only be said to be that people in the world are evil.

I really like this article, Baozi. I hope everyone can give A Que a "five-star praise" in the book review with just a few clicks of his fingers, and increase the score of this article.

If you don’t force it, just comment if you like it. If you don’t like it, just pass by.
