Ling Haoyue's meaning, Qi Yan understood, people are different, and their nature is so unforgiving.
"Yue'er, you treat these two maids very well, if anything really happens, you will definitely try to keep them safe, in other words, as long as they are always loyal to you, then nothing will happen to them. โ
Ling Haoyue closed her eyes and said, "I'm here with them, even if I'm gone, I'll try my best to keep them." โ
"Don't talk nonsense!" Qi Yan immediately retorted, "You'll be fine." โ
To borrow Ling Haoyue's words, he was there.
Ling Haoyue rested her head on his shoulder, he could always make her so reassured.

Three days later, sure enough, I saw Zhou's mother bring someone to pick up Ling Haoyue back home. And Ma Pozi followed behind with her head held high and entered the Lingguo Mansion.
Old Madam Ling was kind to Ling Haoyue, and she was afraid that she would encounter something unsightly along the way, so she directly sent Mother Zhou, who was beside her, to pick her up in person.
Ling Haoyue entered the Ling Guo Mansion, and went directly to Yulan Garden to greet the old lady. Zhou's mother praised Ling Haoyue's filial piety.
"Greetings to Grandmother. Ling Haoyue bowed to Old Lady Ling.
It's been a month, and the granddaughter has finally come back, Old Madam Ling looked at her lovingly, and hurriedly said, "Get up, Yue'er, come to Grandmother." โ
Ling Haoyue got up and stepped forward. Old Madam Ling took her hand and knocked it carefully, and said, "Yue'er, you have lost weight, you have suffered in Zhuangzi." โ
In the opinion of Old Madam Ling, Ling Haoyue's temporary departure was for the peace of the Ling Guo Mansion, in order to avoid the Zhao family and Ling Wanrou, but even if Ling Haoyue was not there, there were always other open and secret battles, without Ling Haoyue, as well as Ling Huaizhu, Ling Xueliu, Aunt Mei, the back house was like a battlefield without gunsmoke, and you never stopped fighting for me.
Looking at Ling Haoyue's increasingly thin face, the guilt in Old Madam Ling's heart deepened. The palms and backs of the hands are full of meat, Ling Wanrou, Ling Haoyue, even if it is Ling Huaizhu and other concubines, in the end, they are all the daughters of the Ling family, and they are all her own granddaughters.
Ling Haoyue smiled faintly and said, "Grandmother, Haoyue is very good. It made my grandmother worried, it was Haoyue's. โ
With such a sensible granddaughter, Old Madam Ling was even more distressed.
"Yue'er, don't go to Zhuangzi in the future, even if you are sick and want to recuperate, then just recuperate at home. โ
In the past, Old Madam Ling turned a blind eye to the fights between the women in the mansion, as long as it did not damage the face of the Ling Guo Mansion, she would let them go, so in the past, she didn't know how Ling Wanrou treated Ling Haoyue, she just didn't want to care.
But in this month, Ling Haoyue has avoided it, but this mansion is still uneasy, if it goes on like this, something will happen to Ling Guogong's mansion sooner or later, and she can't turn a blind eye. Old Madam Ling has figured it out, the atmosphere in the house must be positive, and small things show a person's nature.
Looking at Ling Wanrou below, Old Madam Ling was a little sorry, this eldest lady of the Ling Guo Mansion who she had been in pain since she was a child, her temperament was too arrogant, and she, as a grandmother, had to beat her.
Old Madam Ling said to the Zhao family: "Zhao family, Yue'er's Cuizhu Garden has been cleaned up? Yue'er has been gone for more than a month, and the yard should be dirty." โ
Zhao replied with a smile: "Don't worry, the old lady, my daughter-in-law sent someone to clean up the Cuizhu Garden early in the morning." โ
After speaking, she said to Ling Haoyue: "Yue'er's health is very good, seeing that the old lady's birthday is approaching, I am still worried that Yue'er, you are sick and can't celebrate the old lady's birthday, just come back now." โ
Ling Haoyue smiled and said, "Haoyue's body must be angry, how can she be absent from her grandmother's birthday." โ
After Ling Haoyue finished speaking, she said to Ling Wanrou again: "Big sister, I haven't seen you for many days, but she is still radiant." Grandmother's birthday is approaching, so I guess my big sister is getting all the gifts ready. In the past, it was the big sister's gift that my grandmother liked the most. โ
The things that the Zhao family provoked, don't blame her for leading it to Ling Wanrou.
Ling Wanrou smiled lightly: "Second sister said that she was joking, it is important to prepare gifts for grandmother, grandmother is happy, isn't it grandmother?"
Ling Haoyue raised her eyebrows slightly, this Ling Wanrou has changed her temperament now? If she had proudly said in the past how she had won her grandmother's liking Yunyun, today she is decent.
looked at the Zhao family next to Ling Wanrou, it seems that the Zhao family has taught her a lot recently.
It's just that some things have been exposed, and they can no longer be washed away. How disliked Ling Wanrou was for Ling Haoyue, Old Madam Ling couldn't forget it, so much so that every word that Ling Wanrou and Ling Haoyue said now, Old Madam Ling would unconsciously filter it in her heart, whether there were thorns in these words, and whether Ling Wanrou was bullying Ling Haoyue again.
Old Madam Ling nodded slightly, and said, "Yue'er is fine, as long as you are safe, grandmother will be happy, and there is no need to prepare any gifts." The old woman is a person who has one foot in the coffin, and there is nothing good about it. โ
Ling Wanrou's face stiffened slightly, what did Old Madam Ling mean by this, then the gifts she bothered to prepare were useless.
Zhao hurriedly took over the words and said with a smile: "The old lady loves the younger generation, as long as these children are safe, you will be happy." Saying that, Zhao gently patted Ling Wanrou's shoulder again, and said with a smile: "Rou'er, you are the eldest sister, but you must set an example, don't cause trouble, be healthy, and honor the old lady well." โ
Ling Wanrou replied with a smile, "Mother, Rou'er knows. โ
The corners of Ling Haoyue's lips raised a faint smile, didn't the Zhao family just want to remind the old lady that they were also girls from the Ling Guo Mansion, so they couldn't favor one over the other.
Old Madam Ling didn't speak, after all, she was the daughter of the Ling family, and it was naturally best to get along peacefully.
"Old lady, next month is your birthday, do you think this year is going to be a big event, or will the family get together?" Zhao asked.
This year, Mrs. Ling is exactly sixty-five, although it is not a full life, it is also a half-life.
Old Madam Ling pondered for a moment, and then looked at Ling Haoyue beside her. Thinking in her heart, Ling Haoyue hid in her yard in previous years, rarely went out, and many people probably didn't know her very well.
Raising his eyes, he ordered, "I don't know how many birthdays I can have left, so I'll invite more people this year." Who are the specific people, you just look at the next post. "The Zhao family has been the Duchess of Ling Guo for so many years, so she naturally knows who to invite.
Zhao nodded and replied: "Then the daughter-in-law will draw up a list of guests, and the old lady will look at it." โ
Old Madam Ling waved her hand and said, "I don't need to look at it, you can just discuss it with the boss." At the end, he added: "You look at the people next to you, Mrs. Xiao's mansion must send a post over." โ
Mrs. Xiao's Mansion, isn't that Xiao Qingfeng's house who has a marriage contract with Ling Haoyue.
What Old Madam Ling had in mind, Zhao knew it, and Ling Haoyue also knew it.
Qing Dai, who was standing behind Ling Haoyue and waiting, felt a beat in her heart, Old Madam Ling was going to take the opportunity to put Ling Haoyue's marriage on the agenda.
Zhao smiled: "Daughter-in-law understands. The daughter-in-law has an idea, seeing that the ladies in the house are all seeing the big ones, and they should all want to see others, it is better to take this opportunity to see which one is suitable, and you can also help pick and choose. โ
Old Madam Ling nodded and said, "Well, Wanrou is already in time, and it is indeed time to be in a hurry." โ
Ling Wanrou blushed slightly, and said coquettishly: "Grandmother, you are used to laughing at Wanrou." โ
"Men should get married, women should get married, this is how it should be. Old Madam Ling said with a smile, suddenly remembering that the eldest grandson, Ling Zhengchu, was also about to reach the crown.
"Zhao, Rou'er should be in a hurry, and Chu'er, you should also worry about it. โ
Ling Zhengchu is also eighteen this year, and he will be crowned in two years, and it is very common for men in Nanqi to marry before the crown.
Zhao said with a smile: "Old lady, don't you know, the child in Chu'er said that the boy should start a business first and then start a family, so I don't want to betroth him." โ
Ling Haoyue smiled slightly, she remembered that Ling Zhengchu had a confidante Aunt Yan by her side, looking at the Zhao family like this, didn't she know that her son was thinking about that Aunt Yan.
"Chu'er said so, you are up to his temperament?" Old Madam Ling said, "Chu'er is the only concubine of our Ling Guo Mansion, and he will inherit the position of Guo Gong Gong in the future, it is right for a man to value his career, but wouldn't it be better to have a virtuous helper to take care of and support him." โ
Zhao nodded and said, "My daughter-in-law thinks so too, but this child is very stubborn in this matter." โ
Ling Haoyue was happy, it seemed that the Zhao family really didn't know how heavy Aunt Yan was in Ling Zhengchu's heart, if she knew, she was afraid that she would have already made a fuss about marrying Ling Zhengchu.
Old Madam Ling thought for a while and said, "If you want to show Chu'er, if he wants to start a business first, it's always okay to set up a family business first." โ
Zhao smiled: "The daughter-in-law has to pick carefully." โ
Old Madam Ling nodded and smiled: "Our family background in the Ling Guo Mansion is not weak, the other party's family background, character, and character should be particularly valued, and marrying a wife and a virtuous person is the most important." โ
In fact, these are not the orders of the old lady Ling, and the Zhao family has a ruler in his heart.
Ling Haoyue said with a smile: "The eldest aunt is looking at the wife of the eldest brother again, and she has to choose a son-in-law, but she is busy." โ
Old Madam Ling smiled: "It's a good job, this is a happy event." If it weren't for Yue'er, you would be married by the emperor himself, or even your grandmother would have to pick and choose more for you. โ
Ling Haoyue smiled faintly, without saying a word, her marriage was not yet known.
"Yue'er, that kid from the Xiao family has a good background and is also motivated, just after entering the office, he was appointed as the long history of southern Xinjiang, the emperor wants to reuse him, and you are not a low marriage if you marry in the past. โ
Ling Haoyue's identity is the highest among the young ladies of the Ling Guo Mansion, and it stands to reason that her future husband should also be the highest among the sons-in-law of the Ling family. It's just that Ling Wanrou has a whisper in her heart. Xiao Qingfeng is not bad, but it is also appropriate for her Ling Wanrou to marry a prince as the daughter of the prince, Xiao Qingfeng is in front, and it is difficult for her husband to cross him.
Therefore, Ling Wanrou's marriage is also unknown......
