Chapter 87 She's here to help us
Lin Qing, who had been watching the spectacle with amusement, received her signal, broke free from the Third Madam's embrace, and looked up at her. "That's right, Mother, she's here to help us, and look, she can make sure others can see me." After saying that, she even turned around to make sure she could see me clearly.
But clearly, the Third Madam possessed something that allowed her to see Lin Qing, so she was also skeptical.
"You really won't take Qing'er away?" Still somewhat distrustful, they reached out and pulled the person who had broken free back.
Upon hearing this, Feng Qingge quickly waved her hand to show her innocence, "No." She wasn't one of those people who knew evil magic, so why would she capture a ghost?
"Then what are you doing here?" At this moment, the Third Madam was no longer in the weak state she had been a few days ago, but rather in the state of a mother hen protecting her chicks.
Mo Linyuan raised an eyebrow, found a seat, crossed his legs, and watched leisurely.
Seeing this, Feng Qingge walked over and sat down, saying, "I'm just a little curious. How could Lin Qing, who died in her mother's womb, grow up to be so big?" Unless someone helps her.
Sure enough, the Third Madam's expression changed the next moment, her lips pressed tightly together, and her fingers gripping Lin Qing's clothes turned white.
"…………"
Silence, still silence, a room filled with stillness.
At this moment, Mo Linyuan suddenly spoke, his cold and aloof voice even colder in this icy world, "Third Madam, if you don't speak, we can't help you. I'm sure you don't want your daughter's wish to be in vain."
The third wife's fingers trembled upon hearing this. She looked down at the expectant expression on her daughter's face and finally relented.
She held Lin Qing in her arms, sat on the soft couch, and stroked the little head of the person in her arms, slowly telling the story, "Actually, it's not that I can't tell you this. At that time, I was pregnant, and the master was very happy. He named the children early on. He said that if it was a boy, he would name him Lin Qing, and if it was a girl, he would name her Lin Qing. The master loved the child in my womb very much and looked forward to the birth of the child. But when I was eight months pregnant, the maid brought me some food that day. After I ate it, I had unbearable abdominal pain, and that's how I lost the child." At this point, the Third Madam paused in stroking Lin Qing's little head, and her eyelids drooped.
Before long, she returned to normal and continued, "I was heartbroken after losing my child, and I was listless all day long. Many people said I was possessed, and some even said I was crazy, but my mind is perfectly clear. Besides, they are just laughing at me. That bowl of food was sent by the First Madam." As she spoke, tears streamed down her face, indicating that she was extremely heartbroken.
The Third Madam took the handkerchief Lin Qing handed her and wiped away her tears. She then tightened her arms around the child. "In the end, the rumors about being possessed became more and more outrageous, so the Master posted a reward notice. Anyone who could cure my illness would receive a reward of a thousand taels of silver. But most of those who came were frauds. Yet there was one person who saved me and my child."
"I remember it was a sunny afternoon. She came with a handsome man. They looked very well-matched. She seemed to be surrounded by golden light. She was the most beautiful woman I had ever seen in my life. She told me that my child was still alive, but had turned into a baby monster that possessed me, which was why I was so listless. She saved my child and taught me to feed Qing'er with my own yang energy. Gradually, Qing'er grew bigger and bigger, and I was able to see her more and more." After the Third Madam finished speaking, her gaze remained distant, as if she was reminiscing about the extremely beautiful woman she had described.
