Song Heqing said, "Everyone has their own secrets. Yu Ning kept the Lingling incident a secret for three years, and there must be a reason for that. I have also been in mourning for the past three years, so it is not appropriate for me to wear mourning clothes when I go to see Lingling. I will show up in front of the child when I am almost done with mourning."
Song Heqing emphasized the words "filial piety". Qin Yuli was a filial person. If she were from a family with more etiquette, she would not have gone to someone else's house so openly on the 47th day after her death.
Qin Yuli was extremely angry and said, "Song Heqing! Do you think you can keep your position as the Crown Princess?"
Song Heqing looked at Qin Yuli and said, "Miss Qin, it's getting late. You can go now. If we don't agree, I won't be as naive as Princess Lu and let you use her as a knife."
Qin Yuli said: "Do you think you are smarter than that idiot Lu Baozhu? Aren't you also being used by Qi Yuning?"
“Boom!”
Song Heqing's door was kicked open by Lu Baozhu.
Lu Baozhu entered and saw Qin Yuli's horrified face. She raised her hand and slapped her, "Qin Yuli!"
Qin Yuli covered her face which was burning from the slap and said to Lu Baozhu, "Sister Baozhu, you..."
Lu Baozhu pouted, "Don't call me sister, I find it disgusting!"
Lu Baozhu clenched her fist and said, "Get lost, don't let me see you again, or I will kill you!"
Qin Yuli received a heavy slap in the face. Lu Baozhu had always acted unreasonably and casually, and now she was angry, so Qin Yuli did not dare to stay any longer.
Lu Baozhu is a stupid person. It would be better to wait for a few days until her anger subsides and then coax her back.
Lu Baozhu looked at the calculation in Qin Yuli's eyes, full of anger and disappointment, and left the Song family in anger.
…
Qi Yuning brought Lingling back to the Qi family. Just as he coaxed Lingling to sleep, he heard the sounds of Lichun and Jingzhe coming from outside.
"Princess, you can't come in!"
“Get out of the way!”
"Princess..."
Lu Baozhu stormed into Qi Yuning's room as if she was alone.
Qi Yuning walked to the outer room and glared at Lu Baozhu, saying, "Lingling just fell asleep..."
Qi Yuning found it extremely strange to see Lu Baozhu's eyes were red and filled with tears, because she had never seen Lu Baozhu cry before.
Lu Baozhu sat on the chaise longue as if she were at home and began to cry.
Qi Yuning didn't know what to do for a moment, so he could only ask, "What's wrong with you?"
Lu Baozhu sobbed and cried, "Do you think I'm stupid? So stupid that I was used by Qin Yuli for so many years. Don't you all know that? I treated her as a good sister, but she actually said I was a fool!"
Qi Yuning asked: "Qin Yuli said you are an idiot?"
Lu Baozhu started to cry and spoke incoherently, "She didn't know I was eavesdropping, and she secretly called me an idiot. It's a pity that I trusted her so much since I was a child... wuwuwu!"
"It's all your fault!"
Lu Baozhu pointed at Qi Yuning and cried.
Qi Yuning asked: "What are you blaming me for?"
"Who made you so outstanding? When you were a child, your grandparents loved you more. Even my brother liked to play with you more. He bought you candied apples but didn't buy me candied haws. Only Qin Yuli stood by me and stood up for me. So I always trusted Qin Yuli. She was the only one who liked me."
Qi Yuning really couldn't remember when the candied apple incident happened.
Seeing that she was crying so sadly, Qi Yuning didn't bother with her. "It's good that you know Qin Yuli's true face now. Don't be fooled by her in the future."
Lu Baozhu cried heartbreakingly. She thought of all the stupid things Qin Yuli had done to her and how she had used her to make her cry.
She cried loudly.
Qi Yuning comforted her from the side: "If you cry so loudly again, you will wake Lingling up!"
Lu Baozhu's crying became weaker. "I didn't expect Qin Yuli would plot against me like this, wuwuwu."
Lu Baozhu wiped her tears with her handkerchief and said, "Song Heqing is still the best. She said I was innocent and kind, but you said I was stupid. If you hadn't called me stupid, I might have discovered Qin Yuli's true face a long time ago. It's all your fault!"
Qi Yuning heard the crying and said, "Okay, okay, it's all my fault, please stop crying!"
Lu Baozhu said, "I am crying. Even if you are my sister-in-law, you can't tell me whether I cry or not! You were stabbed in the back by your best sister. You found out that she has been using you all these years. If you don't cry, aren't you sad?"
Qi Yuning said: "My best sister would never treat me like this."
After Qi Yuning said this, Lu Baozhu cried even more sadly.
Qi Yuning simply gave her room to Lu Baozhu, and went to the study to handle official business. She then instructed Xiaoman, "Go to the Dali Temple to find Lu Shizi, and ask him to bring back a candied apple to appease his sister."
Xiaoman replied, "Yes."
Qi Yuning looked at the account book for an hour and a half before returning to his room.
I didn't expect that after entering the room, I could still hear Lu Baozhu crying.
Lu Baozhu probably hasn't cried since she was old enough to understand things. It seems that she cried out all the tears she had cried for more than ten years today.
Lingling had already stood up and said to Lu Baozhu, "Auntie, where does it hurt? Don't cry, Lingling will comfort you."
Lu Baozhu was still crying.
Qi Yuning went over and picked up Lingling, and said to Lu Baozhu: "It's been almost two hours, and you haven't finished crying yet!"
"My best sister is gone, so what's wrong with crying?"
Qi Yuning saw tears in Lu Baozhu's eyes and admired her sincerely for being able to cry after crying for so long. "Okay, stop crying. If you cry any more, your eyes will get swollen."
As soon as Lu Ze entered Chunjiang Courtyard, he heard crying. As soon as he reached the door, he heard Lu Baozhu's crying getting louder and louder.
"What happened?" Lu Ze walked up to Lu Baozhu and asked, "Who bullied you?"
"Qin Yuli!" Lu Baozhu cried, "She said I was an idiot."
Lu Ze was surprised. "She said you are an idiot?"
Lu Baozhu said: "She said it privately. She originally wanted to sow discord between Qi Yuning and Song Heqing. She is so vicious. She even made up a story that the prince uncle likes Qi Yuning and that Lingling was born to the prince uncle. Bah!"
Lingling said: "Lingling is the daughter of Daddy and Mommy!"
Lingling walked up to Lu Ze and saw the candy apple in his hand. Her eyes sparkled, "Daddy, is this for Lingling?"
"For your aunt." Lu Ze gave the candied apple to Lu Baozhu, "I bought you a candied haws, which are at Uncle Deqing's place."
Lingling even went outside to Deqing to ask for candied haws.
When Lu Baozhu saw the candied apples, she raised her eyes and asked, "Brother, why did you buy me candied apples?"
Lu Ze said, "I didn't expect you to still remember things from your childhood. It wasn't that I only bought candies for Qi Yuning and not for you, but you had a lot of cavities at that time, and your new teeth had just been replaced, so your mother said that you couldn't eat candies.
You are my biological sister, and Princess Qi was not as important as you at that time."
After Lu Ze said this, he glanced at Qi Yuning.
Lu Baozhu took the candied apple and finally smiled.
Qi Yuning understood from Lu Ze's eyes what he had not finished saying. At that time, she was not as important as Lu Baozhu, but now she is more important than Lu Baozhu.
Qi Yuning said: "Qin Yuli is really good at sowing discord. She even dares to spread rumors like this. But He Qing will definitely not let her scheme succeed."
Lu Baozhu asked, "How do you know? What if your good sister believes Qin Yuli's lies?"
"He Qing is not as..."
The word "stupid" was already in Qi Yuning's mouth. She was afraid that Lu Baozhu would continue to cry, so she changed it to two words: "naive."
Lu Baozhu pouted and said, "I will never trust Qin Yuli again."
Lu Ze said to Lu Baozhu, whose eyes were red, "Go home and wash your face quickly. Your face is dirtier than a kitten's."
Lu Baozhu walked to Qi Yuning's bronze mirror, looked at herself, then covered her face with a handkerchief and went back.
Lu Ze took another candy apple from his other hand and gave it to Qi Yuning, "This is for you."
Qi Yuning didn't know where Lu Ze appeared from. She looked at the candy apple and smiled, "Lu Baozhu finally knows Qin Yuli's true identity. Qin Yuli is really good at making up stories. She even fabricated that the prince likes me."
Lu Ze said: "Actually, I don't think Qin Yuli's story is completely fabricated. At least one of her words is true. The prince may really like you."
"Um?"
