So when the Prime Minister's wife talked about this matter, Lin Xiangru's eyes couldn't help but redden. To be honest, she only had a deep grudge with Lin Xiaoxiang, but she did not have any resentment towards her mother.
She was still immersed in this memory, and the Prime Minister's wife saw that she didn't speak, so she continued to persuade her with emotion and benefits.
What the Prime Minister's wife meant was to tell Lin Xiangru that no matter what, she was Lin Xiangru's mother, and she hoped that Lin Xiangru could recognize her as his mother.
Just when the Prime Minister's wife was about to be moved by what she said, Qiuyue beside her suddenly pulled Lin Xiangru's hand and said, "Mother, Qiuyue is hungry."
For little Qiuyue, Lin Xiangru was the one who had always been by her side, the only person she could trust wholeheartedly. But today, she knew that Lin Xiangru was not her biological mother. When she first learned about it, Qiuyue's eyes were filled with disbelief. She hugged Lin Xiangru's arm and asked, "Is mother really not Qiuyue's biological mother?"
Lin Xiangru had already made up his mind to let Qiuyue know about his biological parents, so even though he felt reluctant, he had to tell Qiuyue that he was indeed not her mother.
Lin Xiangru had thought that Qiuyue would become distant from him because of this incident, and that she would become closer to him after a while. However, what Lin Xiangru had not expected was that after he told her that he was not her biological mother, Qiuyue was silent for a moment, then continued to hug Lin Xiangru's arm and said, "My mother is Qiuyue's biological mother, my only mother."
At that time, Lin Xiangru was so moved that tears were about to fall, and he felt that it was worth it that he had raised her for such a long time.
Back to the present, when the Prime Minister's wife's emotions were brewing just right, she was interrupted by Qiuyue. She felt a little unhappy. At that moment, she glared at Qiuyue and said, "Shut up, you bastard."
Her words were very harsh. Not to mention that Qiuyue was so young that she didn't understand what "bastard" meant, but seeing her sharp tone, Qiuyue couldn't help but shrink back.
Lin Xiangru, who was standing by, was about to be moved by the Prime Minister's wife, but when he heard how the Prime Minister's wife treated the daughter she had raised for so long, he suddenly felt unhappy.
Although Qiuyue was not her biological daughter, she was not a bastard either. She was also a descendant of the royal family. No matter what, what the Prime Minister's wife said was indeed too much.
However, the Prime Minister's wife had not yet noticed that her daughter was unhappy. She turned to Lin Xiangru and said, "If the child is not your own, you will be separated from him sooner or later. Xiangru, mother tells you that it is right for you to have a child with the emperor as soon as possible while you are still young." After saying this, she rolled her eyes at Qiuyue again.
"Don't say such things again. I respect you as an elder and my biological mother, and I want to save some face for you. But no matter what, you can't treat me like this, the daughter I have raised for so long." Lin Xiangru came down, hugged Qiuyue in his arms, and comforted her gently.
The Prime Minister's wife seemed a little bit unbelievable that Lin Xiangru actually spoke to her like that. She opened her eyes wide and pointed at Lin Xiangru: "You, you, you actually speak to your mother like that?"
The Prime Minister's wife originally thought that she could take this opportunity to repair the relationship with Lin Xiangru, but she did not expect that because of Qiuyue, the already fragile relationship between mother and daughter was completely shattered.
Not only that, Lin Xiangru was also angry because the Prime Minister's wife spoke harshly to Qiuyue, so she spoke without any mercy. This time, the mother and daughter had a falling out.
After all, the Prime Minister's wife was his mother. Even if they had a falling out, Lin Xiangru couldn't say anything harsh to his mother. So after chatting with the Prime Minister's wife for a few words, he left angrily with Qiuyue in his arms.
After they returned to the main hall, Su Mengyan saw that Lin Xiangru had a bad face. She remembered that it was the Prime Minister's wife who called her out just now, and she knew that something unpleasant must have happened between her and the Prime Minister's wife.
Even as the mistress of the harem, it was not appropriate for her to interfere too much in matters between other mothers and daughters, so Su Mengyan pretended not to see anything and continued with her own affairs.
This was not a major sacrifice, so the matter was resolved quickly.
The sky gradually darkened. Su Mengyan ignored the abbot's attempts to keep her and insisted on leaving the temple with Lin Xiangru and others.
When Su Mengyan brought Lin Xiangru to the foot of the mountain, they found that Situ Yao, Fu Liu and others had been waiting there for a long time.
It turned out that when they separated in the morning, Situ Yao and Su Mengyan had made an appointment to go out together in the evening.
After these people came down the mountain, the carriage went straight to the downtown area. Although night had fallen, there happened to be a lantern parade today, so the place was bustling with people.
It was the first time for Long Yao to leave the palace. Besides, he was a little kid and loved the hustle and bustle. So when he saw this scene, he immediately clapped his hands and shouted with joy.
Seeing Long Yao like this, everyone's faces were filled with smiles.
"Look, little Longyao is so happy today. It seems like we should bring him out more often in the future." Fu Liu said with a smile. Although Longyao was the prince, they were in disguise when they left the palace and did not want others to know their identities, so they just called him by his name.
After hearing Fu Liu's words, Su Mengyan nodded: "We should indeed let him come out more often."
Although there are many people in the palace, the palace is different from the outside world after all. We can't keep the child in the palace all the time.
Lanterns were hung under the eaves of the houses on the streets. Children were running around, holding a small lantern in their hands, and laughter was spilling from their mouths.
On the crowded streets, some small vendors were shouting their wares, hoping to make some extra money through this opportunity.
Just when everyone was excited because they had finally left the palace, they suddenly heard a cry of surprise: "Someone stole the child."
Because of this scream, the people who were originally very excited were also frightened, and some families with children immediately started looking for their children.
"Qiuyue, where is Qiuyue? Qiuyue is missing." Lin Xiangru immediately started looking around her. She immediately found that Qiuyue, who had been held in her hand, had disappeared without a trace.
After discovering this fact, Lin Xiangru immediately exclaimed.
