Chapter 4 My Daddy is the Best Daddy in the World
Lin Siqiong was held by the hand, and looked hesitant, "But sister..."
"Your sister knows nothing and can't manage such a huge mansion. Only you can share my worries. Are you going to throw everything to me and let me suffer the hardship?"
"Of course not!" Lin Siqiong explained hurriedly, "I certainly can't bear to let Mother work so hard. In that case, I will continue to manage it for the time being. Once Sister is familiar with the Hou Mansion, I will slowly return the housekeeping power to her."
The Marquis's wife then smiled with satisfaction, "This is my good daughter."
As she spoke, the Marquis' wife looked at Yu Youning again, "Youning, what's your last name? Who is your father? Why isn't he with you?"
"Grandma, my last name is Yu, just like my mother's! Daddy has his own things to do and is not at home!"
The Marquis's wife frowned and looked at Yu Tingwan with a reproachful look, "Tingwan, it's fine if you married someone else, but why did you marry a man like this? The children will have to take your surname, and he's away from home for years. What's the point of a man like this? When he comes back, you can divorce him!"
Hearing the Marquis' wife's criticisms of her father, Yu Youning became unhappy and frowned, "Grandma is partial! Youning's father is a very good person! He is very good to my mother and me!
Li'er also has her aunt's surname, so why didn't Grandma say anything bad about Li'er's father? Why did she say something bad about Youning's father?
"Li'er's situation is special. She's the future Crown Princess, so naturally she should have the surname Lin. As for your father... I'll meet him first when he comes back. If he's not worthy of the Marquisate, he'll still have to divorce your mother. Grandmother will then choose a good marriage for your mother and find you a good father!"
"I don't want to!" Yu Youning's cheeks puffed up, "My daddy is the best daddy in the world!"
Yu Tingwan's face was also full of determination. "Mother, I don't plan to divorce. Youning's father treats me very well."
The Marquis's wife became increasingly dissatisfied.
Yu Youning is just a child, so it's fine if she doesn't know what's good and what's bad, but why is Yu Tingwan so ignorant too? Who is she doing this for?
The Marquis's wife took a deep breath and then said patiently, "Alright, you just came back and must be tired. Let Siqiong take you to the yard to rest. You don't have to come over at noon. When Yu'er comes back in the evening, we can have a reunion dinner together as a family."
Lin Siqiong had been standing by without saying a word. Upon hearing this, she smiled and said, "Mother, just leave Sister and Youning to me. You can just take a good rest!"
Lin Siqiong was already laughing in her heart. She really didn't expect that this mother and daughter would be so suicidal that they dared to openly go against the Marquis's wife's wishes. She just hoped that they would continue to be so suicidal and be kicked out of the Marquis' Mansion as soon as possible!
Thinking this in her heart, Lin Siqiong looked at Yu Tingwan and Yu Youning with a smile, "Sister, Youning, let's go, I'll take you to your yard."
Yu Tingwan glanced at the Marquis' wife and saw that she was looking at Lin Siqiong with satisfaction.
No matter how you look at it, the two of them are more like mother and daughter, and she is the superfluous one...
Feeling Yu Tingwan's disappointment, Yu Youning held her hand a little harder, "Mother, your aunt is just as capable as a housekeeper! Don't you think so?"
Yu Tingwan was slightly startled and couldn't help laughing, but soon, Yu Tingwan's face turned serious, "Youning, stop talking nonsense! How can you compare your aunt to a housekeeper! Let's go see what the yard your aunt prepared for us is like."
"Great! Auntie is so capable, the yard she prepares for us will definitely be the most beautiful! Isn't it, Auntie?"
Lin Siqiong was angry because Yu Youning compared her to a housekeeper, but after hearing what Yu Youning said, she had to smile and nod, "Yes..."
"Are the flowers in there made of gems? Are the trees made of gold? Is the bed made of white marble?"
When Yu Youning asked these questions, his eyes were shining like the brightest stars in the sky.
Lin Siqiong smiled, and this time her smile was sincere.
She is indeed a little country girl who has never seen the world!
My mind is full of these vulgar things!
Do you really think that gold, silver and jade are good things?
"Youning is such a joker! Who would use white marble to make a bed? It would be so hard to sleep on! Auntie has prepared the finest silk quilt for you..."
As Lin Siqiong spoke, she looked at the Marquis's wife with some helplessness.
The Marquis's wife didn't show it on her face, but her eyes were full of disappointment.
As expected, he grew up in a small place and did not receive a good education. At such a young age, his mind is full of these vulgar things.
Fortunately, it has been reconnected now. I hope it can be restored over time!
The Marquis's wife waved her hand feebly, "Siqiong, take them first."
"Mother, you should have a good rest. Siqiong will come and take care of you after she settles her sister and Youning."
"Si Qiong is still the most considerate!"
Seeing that the two of them didn't take his words seriously, Yu Youning sighed deeply, "I thought the Marquis' Mansion was very rich! Now it seems that it's just so-so, it doesn't even have these things..."
The more Lin Siqiong listened, the funnier it became. "Could it be that Youning has seen these things before?"
"Yes! I have a lot of them! The Marquis' Mansion doesn't have any. Not even a fox fur cloak. The Marquis' Mansion is too pitiful."
Is the Marquis' Mansion pitiful?
Does she know what she is talking about?
She has a lot more, are there any in her dreams?
Not only is he greedy for money, but he is also full of big talk.
A little country girl like this is not even worthy of carrying shoes for her daughter Li'er!
So what if they are both direct descendants of the Lin family?
It can't threaten her and Li'er's status at all!
The more Lin Siqiong thought about it, the more satisfied she felt. She took another look at the disappointed look of the Marquis' wife, and then left the main courtyard with Yu Tingwan and Yu Youning.
The huge mansion was exquisitely built with carved beams and painted rafters. It had not only rockery and flowing water, but also a lotus pond.
Along the way, I met many maids and servants.
When these people saw Lin Siqiong, they all stopped and saluted respectfully, calling her "Miss".
Lin Siqiong didn't show it on her face, but every time a servant came to pay her respects, her eyes would vaguely sweep across Yu Tingwan's face.
When he saw that Yu Tingwan kept her head down, he concluded that she was disappointed and sad, and his eyes became more and more proud.
After walking for half a minute, they finally entered a yard.
There are many precious flowers and trees planted in the yard, and the furniture in the house are also very precious and the colors are very bright.
The things were expensive but tasteless, and they filled the whole house in a mess, with no arrangement at all.
At first glance, it looks messy and disorganized, and it is obvious that this is where nouveau riche would live.
But unfortunately, everything is very valuable and it is hard to find any fault with it.
Lin Siqiong stood in the room, looking around. The more she looked, the more satisfied she became. Then she said, "Sister and Youning, take a look. Is there anything you are not satisfied with? Or is there anything else you would like? As long as you can tell me, I will definitely arrange it for you!"
After saying that, Lin Siqiong saw that Yu Tingwan and Yu Youning were already sitting at the table.
The two of them sat and she stood.
Both of them had critical looks on their faces, and she was all smiles.
After looking around, Yu Youning looked at Lin Siqiong with a smile, "Aunt, Youning is a little hungry and wants to eat something."
Lin Siqiong had already felt strange, and now after hearing Yu Youning's words, the strange feeling in her heart became even stronger.
Why does she really look like a housekeeper now?
