Qingyin spoke earnestly to the little girl.
Liu Niannian was stunned.
She was, after all, just a three-year-old girl. No matter how smart she was, she was still a minor. Even some adults couldn't control their emotions, let alone a child.
Tears welled up in her eyes without her even realizing it.
"Mother... Waaah."
Qingyin, who had just made the girl cry while having a heart-to-heart talk with her daughter in this world: "..."
She looked at the girl in a panic, wanting to hug her, but she had no strength left.
He could only stand there with his mouth open, trying to comfort the little girl and tell her not to cry.
"I'm sorry... I shouldn't have cried, but I'm so happy..." Liu Niannian cried and remembered to wipe away her tears with her hands, but she had shed too many tears to wipe them all away.
Liu Niannian was so anxious and flustered that she suddenly burped while crying loudly.
This made Qingyin laugh again, and the little girl finally forgot her previous emotions, leaving only the embarrassment of doing something shameful.
"Hiccup... Mother, I will study etiquette properly from now on." Liu Niannian blushed and looked at Qingyin shyly.
Qingyin gently wiped away the tears from Liu Niannian's eyes and smiled tenderly.
"It's alright, my Niannian is still young, there's no rush to learn etiquette later."
“But Granny Li said that young ladies should learn good manners from a young age.” Hearing this, Liu Niannian looked puzzled and said hesitantly.
In the Prime Minister's residence, the young master's studies were naturally taught by a nanny.
But for a girl as young as Liu Niannian, learning etiquette, painting, and so on is hardly considered serious. The nannies who teach her are probably just playing with the young master.
Hearing Liu Niannian say this, Qingyin naturally realized from her daughter's words that something was wrong with the old woman.
Making such a young girl learn etiquette in such a serious and forced manner is naturally... a deliberate act of torment.
Qingyin's eyes turned cold.
But seeing her daughter still looking at her pitifully, and the little girl who seemed a bit uneasy because of her sudden cold gaze, Qingyin patted her head reassuringly.
"Don't you believe your mother, Niannian? Your mother was once a lady of high birth, and she also learned etiquette after growing up. Do you see how good your mother is now?"
Liu Niannian shook her head firmly. In her heart, her mother was simply the most beautiful and perfect mother in the world.
Poor manners? Impossible.
The little girl, who had been tricked by Qingyin's few words, felt at ease and lay quietly beside Qingyin, recovering from the intense emotions she had just experienced.
The little girl fell asleep quickly in the comforting environment.
Qingyin looked at her cute little face and carefully poked her cheek.
How adorable, she has a daughter again in this world.
Qingyin closed her eyes and thought happily.
Perhaps it was because children have a special milky scent, but Qingyin, smelling it, felt a wave of fatigue and fell asleep without realizing it.
...
Qinghe, who had rushed back with the freshly brewed medicine, witnessed this scene: a mother and daughter who looked alike were sleeping peacefully together.
The scene made her feel exceptionally warm.
Qinghe smiled unconsciously until the medicine she was holding accidentally slipped from her hand and the rim of the bowl burned her slender fingertips. Only then did she realize the smile on her face.
After placing the medicine on the only table in the room, the pretty maid carefully walked to the bedside and touched the temperature of her mistress's forehead.
It's not so hot anymore.
When the young lady was unconscious, she was forced to drink a pot of medicine, which finally brought down her fever.
Qinghe was relieved.
Unfortunately, Qinghe let her mind go too soon.
Qingyin woke up in the middle of the night and fell asleep again in the second half of the night, but then her fever started again.
The temperature startled Qinghe, who had been watching over her. She disregarded the young lady lying next to her mistress and had a servant carefully carry the sleeping young lady back to her room. With her eyes open, she dragged the unfortunate physician around to repeatedly check the young lady's temperature, prepare medicine, and wipe her body.
After a night of extreme torment, Qingyin's fever finally subsided at 5 a.m. the next day.
The next day, when Qingyin opened her eyes, she saw the familiar face of the original owner and the personal maid in her memory, but with heavy dark circles under her eyes.
"Qinghe?" Qingyin called out weakly.
After a night's rest, her throat wasn't as sore as before, and Qingyin's voice had recovered a little, but it was still very hoarse.
Hearing her mistress's voice, Qinghe quickly realized that she had finally woken up.
She looked up at Qingyin with surprise and excitedly exclaimed, "Miss, you're finally awake!"
"Is there anything else that's bothering you? The physician is right outside. If you're feeling unwell, I'll go ask him right away."
...
Qingyin looked helplessly at the chattering maid.
Qinghe is good in every way, except for one flaw: she loves to nag and talks too much. She grew up with the original owner of this body, and the two had a good relationship. The original owner also liked to talk to Qinghe and was willing to listen to her talk, so Qinghe developed the habit of being talkative and nagging.
This wasn't usually obvious, but especially when the original owner made a mistake, the little maid Qinghe couldn't help but try to persuade Qingyin.
But now that the original owner is gone, it's Qingyin's turn to suffer this pain.
Qingyin listened quietly to Qinghe's rambling, her eyes calm yet revealing a touch of tenderness.
On the surface, there was no sign of sadness.
But this did not include Qinghe. She looked at Qingyin with pity, taking Qingyin's unusual behavior as a pitiful reaction to Qingyin's extreme sadness at being treated ruthlessly by the master.
