Chapter 1861: 092. Conversation, Emotions Out of Control
The wedding procession grandly made its way out of the city gates, and the city folk only gradually dispersed after a lively while, each busying themselves with their previous tasks.
Lady Liu rarely got out with the children, so Lin Yuan didn’t plan on sending them back so early. After all, it was almost noon, so they decided to stay at Dong Tian for a al before heading back.
As for Lin Jiaxin, ever since arriving in the capital, he had been engrossed in calligraphy and painting, not even today’s excitent stirred his interest.
Lin Yuan sent soone to invite Lin Jiaxin for the al; Lady Liu waved her hand with a smile, “Your father, he only knows how to paint now, doesn’t care about anything else. If I didn’t usually urge him, he might not even eat! Don’t bother calling him; it’s in vain, he might not even co.”
“How can that be? Didn’t you just say? If you don’t call him, he won’t rember to eat, and with none of us at ho today, the servants wouldn’t dare to urge him repeatedly; we can’t let him starve in his room!”
Saying this, Lin Yuan glanced at Yin Xing, who was pouring tea for a few people, her lips curled up, “Yin Xing, let Lin Yi accompany you back, you must bring the master back. If you can’t, don’t return with Lin Yi!”
Yin Xing’s hand, which was pouring tea, paused, and her round face imdiately turned red.
Beside her, Shui Xian chuckled, raised her eyebrows at Yin Xing, and winked mysteriously, making Yin Xing’s face even redder.
Lady Liu, unaware of the details, just thought they were whispering secrets and continued speaking with Lin Yuan.
“Your father is really sothing. Back in Lin family’s southern village, we didn’t let him manage because of his bad leg. Now that we’re in the capital and he’s healthy, he cares even less. The whole family affairs fall on your shoulders, truly!”
Although Lady Liu was complaining, she was also feeling sorry for her daughter. Her daughter was turning fifteen after the new year. Thinking about her daughter’s hardships over the past three years, her heart inexplicably ached.
As parents, unable to help their daughter, they instead beco burdens, Lady Liu often found herself unable to sleep due to guilt at night.
Yin Xing had gone back, and Lin Yuan took over the teapot from her hands, poured tea for Lady Liu, and smiled lightly, “Mother, you’re overthinking. Everything I do is as it should be. How can you bla father like this? These words shouldn’t be said to father, it’ll affect your relationship.”
“Phooey!”
Lady Liu blushed, couldn’t help but retort, after all, they’ve been a married couple for so long, what relationship issues are there, as if they’re still young lovers?
Even though Lady Liu thought like this, she felt quite comforted. Having often heard that n beco bad when they’re rich, although she trusted Lin Jiaxin, her concerns were not unfounded.
Especially after moving to the capital, her worries grew, seeing so many young attractive maidservants in the house, while she was already in her mid-thirties, honestly, she didn’t have much allure anymore!
“Oh mother, you’re even bashful!”
Lin Yuan, after pouring tea, sat next to Lady Liu, bead brightly but after teasing Lady Liu a few more tis, she happily said, “In so ways, isn’t it good that father is always painting? At least he hasn’t done anything outrageous! Mother, with father by your side, you should be happy, don’t bla him.”
The daughter truly had grown up, knowing to say such things to comfort her.
Lady Liu’s heart felt warm, she smiled and patted Lin Yuan’s hand, nodding, “Your mother and I have been with your father for over ten years, do you think I wouldn’t understand such simple reasoning? But you, in a few months, you’ll marry Ah Zheng, and once married, you’ll belong to the Xia family. You can’t act as freely as you do now. Rember to care for your in-laws and husband, and also maintain good relations with your sister-in-law. Fortunately, your sister-in-law is Huihui; she’s gentle by nature. Although her personality is different from yours, she is kind-hearted; when you’re with her, don’t bully her, understood?”
“Yes, yes, understood.”
Every ti Lady Liu spoke, Lin Yuan nodded in agreent, but in her heart, she felt at a loss; they were clearly discussing her mother’s relationship with her father, how did the conversation shift to herself?
