Yi Lan was overjoyed." Why did you return so soon? Why didn't you wait for Yi Erha?" she asked.”
"I have good eyesight, so I won't delay your reunion."”As she spoke, she walked out of the courtyard and wandered back and forth in the garden. In the end, she hesitated and came to Mother Jin's place. She looked at her again and estimated that it would be difficult for her to survive tonight, so she said to Ah Xiu with a trembling voice,"Good child, don't cry. You can't tell anyone about what your aunt told you. Eldest Miss will be returning to the manor tonight. Wait for her at the corridor. When you see her, tell her that your mother is sick and wants to see her.”
Ah Xiu's eyes were like walnuts as she sobbed,""Will she come?"
Feng Yin shook her head and said with mixed feelings,""I don't know." She went back after saying that. She couldn't stay here. If Yi Erha really came and saw her here, how would she explain herself? If Yilan knew about this, how would she explain herself?
That night, someone from Gong 'er's mansion came to Feng Yuanzheng in a hurry. Feng Yuanzheng quickly called his son to go with him. Feng Yin thought of a hundred possibilities, but she never thought that Yi Erha was sick. Mother Jin didn't know that her daughter should have seen him, and that was the root of her illness. However, Feng Yin knew and often regretted it. If Mother Jin knew, she would blame her. Three meetings in exchange for three months of illness. Was this God's arrangement?
Did we really make her sick?
It was late at night, and it was quiet. Looking through the window, the moonlight was bright, and the shadows of the trees were dancing. It was like a fairyland. It turned out that this world was so calm and charming, like a cradle, comfortable and warm, but why was it so hard and cold?
Humans were too complicated, making this simple world complicated. A sentence without any warmth broke the silence."Tomorrow you will enter the palace and request for an edict to let Mu Qing marry Prince Bao.”
"Just because Mu Qing is your daughter?"”
Yilan looked into his eyes and said,"Yes, she's our daughter. I don't want her to suffer anymore. From now on, I want to satisfy any of her requests. I don't want her to live so carefully in the future.”
" Enough," Gong E said angrily." What did you promise me? You said you would never forget that Mu Sen is our daughter. Your promise is so worthless."”
"What's the use of being valuable? It's not as important as my daughter." Yi Lan said self-mockingly.”
Gong E said," He's an elder brother, a prince who is very likely to inherit the throne. If you do this, his love will inevitably turn into hatred. Who knows if Mu Sen can bear the consequences in the future?"”
Yilan also said irritably," The future is the future. You said that he is very likely to inherit the throne in the future. He cares about the world, so how can he be entangled in these romantic matters? Besides, that is something that will happen many years later. He has long forgotten about it. Now, it is just a whim. Which man can love a woman for a long time?”
Gong E looked at Yi Lan in disbelief and said,"What did you say?" Which man could love a woman forever?'。”After saying that, he smiled blankly and shook his head helplessly. He said in disappointment,"Madam, what do you mean by that? If I didn't love you, would I not pursue Wen Wen and Xiangrou's whereabouts? If I didn't love you, would I risk the crime of deceiving the emperor to steal a beam and replace a pillar? If I didn't love you, I wouldn't have agreed to take Muqing as our daughter and let them have their doubts.”
When Yilan heard this, she knew that she was being too extreme. She knew how much effort Gong Er had put into her, so she naturally became closer and more dependent on Gong Er. Women were all like this. If they were wholeheartedly devoted to a man, they would have more worries and troubles. They couldn't help but want to ask for more from him. They wanted to see if this man would treat her better. The answer was, of course, that she would slowly get carried away and become arrogant. Yi Lan's mistake stemmed from her peerless beauty and powerful family background. Therefore, he asked,"If I had an ordinary appearance and an ordinary family background, would you love me like this?"”
"It seems that you really don't understand my heart." Gong Er said tiredly.”After saying that, he turned around and walked to the door. He stopped and said coldly,"Let me tell you clearly from a man's point of view. No matter how long it has been, Prince Bao will remember it. On the contrary, he will remember it forever. So, please give up on that idea on the account that Musen has called you Mother for so many years and that she has given our daughter a safe life.”He opened the door and left without looking back.
Yi Lan saw Gong E's expression and suddenly felt that she was wrong.
Peerless beauty? Which one of Wen Wen and Xiang Rou wasn't beautiful enough to topple a country?
A powerful family? His current status was something he had exchanged for with his own life. It had nothing to do with her family.
She wanted to stop him, but it was too late. She looked at his angry back and stood there woodenly, tears falling like rain.
The next day, Mu Sen's other nanny, Mother Su, came from Nanjing. She heard the news that the girl was sick again and hurriedly asked her son to hire a carriage. She came alone. This was also the first time she made a decision.
Because of what happened yesterday, Mu Sen's condition had worsened. This morning, he was even more reluctant to move and could only lean lazily on the bed. Seeing that Mother Su had come all the way here, he could only force himself to talk to her. Seeing her in such a state, Mother Su said with heartache,"My lady, why can't you make me feel at ease?”
" Don't worry, Nanny," Mu Sen comforted her." It'll be fine in a few days."”
Mrs. Su knew about her illness. She stood up and said,"I have endless things to say when I see you, but you have to recuperate. Nanny won't bother you anymore.”
" What are you talking about, Nanny?" Mu Sen said." I haven't seen you for so many years. I've been thinking about you every day."”
Mrs. Su was overjoyed when she heard that. She said to Mrs. Chu,"Look, you've really grown up. You know how to make people happy.”As he spoke, he laughed.
Mrs. Chu and Mrs. Su walked into the side hall hand in hand and started to talk. It turned out that Mrs. Su was Mu Sen's proper wet nurse and had grown up with her milk. Later on, her son went to Nanjing to do business, but unexpectedly, he got married and bought a house there. In order to show his filial piety, he begged Mrs. Chu to bring his mother and sister Xi 'er over. Yilan thought that Mu Sen was already grown up and had Mrs. Chu by his side, so she gave in and gave him a bunch of things before she left. Then, Mother Su went to thank him.
Seeing that there was no one around, Mrs. Su asked,"Furen has entered the palace to pay her respects. When will she be back?”
" I don't know," said Granny Chu." I only found out that the Emperor's Imperial Consort Xi is our Madam's sister after all these years."”
Mother Su said," They were aunt's sisters. At first, they were quite good. Later, for some reason, Madam never mentioned it again and cut off all contact. Now that they have reconciled, how much hatred can there be between sisters?”
Seeing her say this, Granny Chu knew that she did not know the story between the Madam and the Imperial Consort, so she changed the topic and asked,""Sister, how have you been in Nanjing these few years?”
Mrs. Su sighed and said,"Why did I raise such a bastard? I was wondering why he insisted on taking me to Nanjing that year. I really thought that he was filial. It turned out that his wife was pregnant and he couldn't bear to spend money to hire someone, so he thought of this.”
Granny Chu smiled and said," Look at what you're saying. It's only right to serve your wife and give birth. Why do you sound so aggrieved?"”
"It's only right. I treat her with all my heart, but what about her?" Mrs. Su smiled bitterly. You don't know how powerful my wife is.”
Granny Chu frowned and said," No matter how powerful she is, you're still her elder. Since she's like this, you should use your mother-in-law's style to suppress her. It's all because of your weak personality that she's so powerful."”
"Exactly. If I dared to say anything, she would be standing in the courtyard and scolding people like a shrew. She's making a scene at home."”
Hearing this, Granny Chu couldn't help but sympathize with her and said,""Why didn't you bring Xi 'er with you this time?”
