The first month of the fourth year of Kangping.
Qi Yuning had no fun in celebrating the Chinese New Year at all. Even though her brother, sister-in-law, and nephew Yuan Ge'er were all there this year, making it the most lively New Year she had ever had, Qi Yuning was still worried about the approaching Lantern Festival.
Lingling said that she went back a few days after the Lantern Festival in the Xinwei year, and now it is the first month of the Xinwei year. Qi Yuning is very afraid that Lingling will leave and not come back.
On the first night of the new year, Lu Ze saw Qi Yuning holding Lingling and playing on the bed. He coughed and said, "It's time to take Lingling back to the small side room to sleep."
Qi Yuning hugged Lingling tightly and said, "Lingling, this is the bad guy who separated us mother and daughter."
"Daddy is a bad man."
Lu Ze walked over, hugged Lingling, and said, "I'll take you out to play on the street tomorrow. Is Daddy still a bad guy?"
"Daddy is a good man."
Lingling rested her head on Lu Ze's shoulder. "Lingling, kiss mommy, sleep together. Daddy is fine. Muah."
Lingling kissed Lu Ze on the side of his face. Since Lingling was so flattering, Lu Ze couldn't drive her away. He touched Lingling's little head helplessly and said, "Okay."
Lu Ze could only wait until Lingling fell asleep before giving her to Ali.
Lu Ze said to Qi Yuning, "The imperial physician just went to Lu Yun's hospital and found out that Shen Nian is already three months pregnant. The imperial physician said it is very likely to be twins."
Qi Yuning said, "Twins? This is really great news. The Lu family finally has another child."
Lu Ze touched Qi Yuning's hand and said, "So we can't fall behind, otherwise that little bald donkey will show off a lot.
While we finally have some free time, we'll work hard these few days to give Lingling a sibling. If it's really this little Lingling who goes back, she'll ask us for a sibling when she comes back."
Qi Yuning touched her belly and said, "It's strange. Lingling is already three years old, why am I not pregnant yet?"
Except for the one year of national mourning for the Empress Dowager's death, she and Lu Ze deliberately avoided the days of pregnancy, and the rest of the time they were a loving couple.
Qi Yuning hadn't given birth for a long time, and she already knew that some people outside were saying that she had failed to give birth to a son for the Lu family.
Lu Ze whispered in Qi Yuning's ear, "Your husband is also responsible for not working hard. This year, your husband will work harder."
Qi Yuning's face flushed slightly.
On the second day of the Chinese New Year, Qi Yuning was awakened by Lingling's crying.
Lingling hugged a small pillow and stood in front of Qi Yuning's bed with a wronged look. Qi Yuning picked Lingling up and said, "Lingling."
Lingling placed the small pillow next to Qi Yuning and fell asleep. "Lingling woke up without mother to kiss her, woooo."
Qi Yuning touched Lingling's little head and said, "I'm sorry, Lingling. Today, Mommy will take Lingling to play on the street. Lingling, please sleep for a while."
Lingling curled up in Qi Yuning's arms, rubbing her little head against his, looking extremely cute. Seeing the soft and tender Lingling, Qi Yuning touched Lingling's hair bun tenderly.
Lu Ze stood up and saw Xiao Lingling beside him. He reached out and touched Lingling's fair and tender face. Although he disliked her at night, seeing such a soft and tender daughter in the daytime, Lu Ze felt that everything in this world was beautiful.
Lingling woke up at noon, and Qi Yuning and Lu Ze took her to play on the street.
The streets of Shengjing City are bustling during the New Year, and the shops at the market are dazzling.
Qi Yuning and Lu Ze took Lingling for a walk. On the way, Lu Ze ran into Qian Yun, who was chatting with him about state affairs that had not been dealt with years ago.
Lingling was not interested in listening to state affairs, so Qi Yuning took Lingling out to play first, and they happened to pass by the small courtyard next to Prince Duan's Mansion.
Qi Yuning saw Song Heqing going out to put up Spring Festival couplets and asked Song Heqing, "Why are you putting up Spring Festival couplets now?"
Song Heqing saw that she had lost a lot of weight. "Yuning, is this Lingling? How come Lingling hasn't grown up at all in all these years?"
Lingling looked up at Song Heqing, who seemed very unfamiliar. She said to Qi Yuning beside her, "Hug me."
Qi Yuning held Lingling in her arms and said to her, "This is Aunt Song. Lingling, call her Aunt Song."
"Auntie Song." Lingling called out obediently and sensibly.
Holding the paste for the Spring Festival couplets in his hand, Song Heqing said, "This is Lingling's first visit, and I didn't even give her a gift. I really shouldn't have done that."
Qi Yuning said: "There's no need to be so polite between you and me. You look like you're sick?"
Song Heqing said, "It's not a serious illness. I just had a miscarriage not long ago. I missed the Spring Festival couplets and only came now."
Qi Yuning instructed Chunfen behind him, "Go to the clinic and ask for a doctor."
Song Heqing didn't refuse. He wiped his hands with a handkerchief and said, "Yuning, Lingling, please come in and sit for a while."
Qi Yuning carried Lingling inside. Lingling looked at Song Heqing and said with a smile, "Auntie is beautiful."
Song Heqing smiled and said, "Lingling is even prettier."
"Who's here?" Qin Chong came out of the house and saw Qi Yuning in front of him as if he were from another world. "It's Princess Qi."
Qi Yuning was stunned when she heard Qin Chong's address. She always felt that she had forgotten something.
Qin Chong looked at Lingling beside Qi Yuning and said, "How come she hasn't grown up at all? Lingling looked like this four years ago. How is it possible that Lingling will look like this four years later?"
Song Heqing said, "By the way, I heard that you sent the previous Lingling to Taoist Master He to enter the Daoist sect. Is this Lingling the younger sister of the previous Lingling? They look exactly like her!"
Qi Yuning said, "Yes, this is my second daughter. The previous one entered the Taoist sect."
Qin Chong kept staring at Lingling. He had carefully looked at Lu Yiling's face before, and now looking at the little Lingling in front of him, they looked exactly the same and were not sisters at all.
