Chapter 205 Mother and Son Planning
If it were in the past, Leng Qingyu would have felt incredibly soft in her heart when she saw him look like this.
But now, she only felt that the expression on the Marquis's face was not sincere, but a habit engraved in his bones that could be used at any time.
After all, there is someone else living in Yongning Alley.
I don’t know if he will have the same expression when facing that person.
Seeing Leng Qingyu didn't say anything, Lu Tingen continued, "Why are you so angry when you come back? Go back to your room and rest first. Let me take care of your mother's affairs."
Having said that, he pushed Leng Qingyu out the door.
Seeing her son like this, Madam Lu started to scold him again: "As the mistress of the house, instead of putting the family business first, you only know how to coax men to make decisions for you. What else can you do but be a foxy woman!"
Lu Tingen turned around and said helplessly, "Mother, please say less."
Ye Xinran also turned around and said, "Grandma, are you praising mother? She is indeed beautiful and can make money. She is not like some people who are old and poor. No wonder some people are jealous."
"You...cough cough cough"
Madam Lu was so angry that she was speechless.
Lu Tingen turned around and stopped Ye Xinran with an unpleasant expression, "You should also stop talking!"
I have to say that Lu Tingen does have a good-looking face.
As he gets older, he acquires the calmness and temperament that are unique to older men.
It’s a pity that he is a scumbag.
Ye Xinran glared at him, but then shut up and said nothing more.
Now is not the time to fall out, so let's just let the mother and son be happy for now.
Ye Xinran helped Leng Qingyu back to the yard. Lu Tingen wanted to follow, but was rejected by Leng Qingyu on the grounds of being tired.
"I have been traveling all day, and I am tired. My Lord, please go and comfort my mother."
Lu Tingen paused and saw that Leng Qingyu's tired expression did not seem to be fake.
He wanted to say something affectionate, but when he saw Ye Xinran staring at him covetously, Lord Lu had no choice but to say, "Okay, then you should have a good rest first. I'll come over to have dinner with you later."
After Lu Tingen left, the three of them quickly returned to their own courtyard.
As soon as the door was closed, Leng Qingyu immediately pulled Ye Xinran over and asked with concern: "Were you scared just now?"
Ye Xinran bowed her head and said, "I'm not that timid. As long as my mother doesn't mind me making decisions on my own and offending that old woman, that's fine."
Ding Qiao also hurriedly bowed and admitted her fault: "I just acted without hearing the order, please punish me, Madam."
Leng Qingyu helped them up one by one, with an undisguised smile on his face.
"How can I bear to blame or punish anyone? I am so happy in my heart!
After marrying into the Marquis' Mansion for so many years, this is the first time I've seen the old lady get humiliated. Her face just turned the color of liver!"
Seeing Leng Qingyu's attitude, Ye Xinran and Ding Qiao smiled at each other.
One of them came from the modern era, and the other from the military camp. They didn't take the rules of the backyard seriously. Since Leng Qingyu now has the same attitude as them, it seems that they can be more relaxed in the future.
"You are a very good maid.
She is skilled in martial arts and loyal to her master. I feel relieved to have her by your side."
Leng Qingyu looked at Ding Qiao and said to Ye Xinran.
Ding Qiao immediately bowed and said, "Master is Ding Qiao's heaven.
Now that the master has asked me to protect the lady, Ding Qiao will definitely serve the lady as the master."
"You can't take care of so many things by yourself. You just need to protect Xinran." Leng Qingyu reminded.
Ye Xinran suggested with a smile, "Then we will be inseparable. You take a step and I will follow. This way Ding Qiao will be able to take care of everything."
Leng Qingyu heard this, smiled and tapped her forehead: "You are the best one."
……
Here, the three people were laughing and talking happily, but in the backyard of the marquis's mansion, the atmosphere was solemn.
Lu Tingen sat opposite Madam Lu and accompanied her carefully, "Mother, your health is important. Don't get angry because of someone irrelevant to you."
Madam Lu was still furious and said coldly, "If I don't care anymore, they won't know who is in charge of this family.
A wild girl who just arrived dared to speak disrespectfully to me, and it must be the Leng family who condoned her behind the scenes!"
"Mom, these young Yu have always been respectful and filial to you. She is not that kind of person."
Madam Lu slammed the table. "At this time, you are still speaking for her. Have you really lost your mind because of her? Don't forget, Xiaoyu..."
When Lu Tingen heard the name, his eyes suddenly widened, and he quickly stopped the old lady from saying anything else, "Mom, be careful with your words!"
"Humph!"
The old lady snorted.
Upon seeing this, Nanny Sun hurriedly drove out all the maids and servants in the room, closed the door herself and stood guard at the entrance.
Madam Lu then continued:
"If you hadn't coveted the Leng family's wealth, Xiaoyu wouldn't have had to follow you and suffer so many years.
So many years have passed. Have you done what you promised?
At my age, do I still have to live my life based on other people's opinions?"
Lu Tingen's expression changed when he heard this.
"Mother, was I the only one who coveted the Leng family's wealth?
Didn’t you say that for the sake of the Lu family, Xiaoyu could be wronged?
Why do you say now that it's all my fault? "
Old Madam Lu had just been angered by Leng Qingyu and the others, and now her own son was bringing up old issues. She could no longer hold her face, so she lowered her eyes and started crying.
"I know it, I know it! No matter how much I worry about you and how much effort I put in, in the end all the benefits will be yours and all the mistakes will be mine."
The old lady's voice was choked with sobs, which made Lu Tingen feel irritated.
But he was filial after all and did not dare to show his irritation.
He could only whisper to Madam Lu, "Aren't we still doing what we agreed to do? Now Zhiyi has also started to take over the business.
If Ye Xinran hadn't shown up halfway, this would have been accomplished long ago!"
When the old lady heard Lu Tingen mention Ye Xinran, she immediately stopped sobbing.
She thought of Ye Xinran’s disgusted expression and said, “None of the children Leng Qingyu gave birth to were pleasing to the eye!
Wasn't the Ye family foolproof at the time? I heard that her face was disfigured by the Ye family when she was a few years old, so why did she look healthy again just now? "
Lu Tingen was originally full of doubts about this matter.
He later asked someone to investigate the details and found out that Ye Xinran had used Yongletang's Snow Face Cream to restore her appearance, and that the Snow Face Cream was made by Ye Xinran herself.
As for where she learned this skill, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't find out.
He replied: “There are many suspicious points in this matter, and my people are still inquiring in Yuntong County.
But mother, now that Qingyu has returned to the capital, we will continue according to the original plan.
Don't let Qingyu become suspicious because of your momentary anger.
Ye Xinran is not a pushover either, so don't mention Xiaoyu's matter again, or you'll end up ruining everything."
