Shen Liao frowned at her, then looked at Madam Tu who was slowly walking towards him from behind.
He raised his hand and bowed, "Mother-in-law."
"My dear son-in-law, I didn't expect to meet you here."
"Yes, today is a day off. I thought Qingyu would be bored staying at home all day, so I took her out for a walk."
"The weather has been nice these days, neither too hot nor too cold, just right." Mrs. Tu looked at Tu Qingyu's belly and said, "It's almost two months now, is everything okay these days?"
Tu Qingyu smiled and nodded, "Thank you for your concern, mother. Qingyu is doing well."
"That's good, that's good. It shows that this child is loving." Mrs. Tu looked at Tu Qingyu's belly with a loving face.
After chatting for a while, she walked away with her people very tactfully.
"You two can have fun together. I'll take your sisters over there."
"Take care, mother."
Shen Liao took him for a walk in the maple forest. A breeze blew, and the maple forest rustled.
Tu Qingyu reached out to catch the falling maple leaves, and there was one just right, one in his palm and one above his head.
Shen Liao was almost dazzled by the beautiful scenery before him.
"My Lord." Tu Qingyu turned his head. "Does it look good?"
There was a gentle and peaceful smile in her clear eyes.
When I looked at him, it was as if he was the only one in my eyes.
"nice."
The scenery is beautiful, and the people are even more beautiful.
He reached out and gently took the maple leaf off her head.
Tu Qingyu stretched out his hand, "Give it to me."
"Huh? What's the use of this?" But he still placed it in her palm.
Tu Qingyu put this piece together with the one in his hand, "These two pieces are very beautiful. Since they fell into my possession, it is a kind of fate. I will take them back and make them into bookmarks."
"Bookmark?" How to make a bookmark with two leaves?
She blinked, "You'll know when the time comes."
It was the first time that Shen Liao saw her with such a lively and lively expression.
He couldn't help himself and reached out to gently pinch her cheek.
Tu Qingyu's eyes widened. [What is he doing?]
After being shocked, she raised her hand and slapped his hand away, and Shen Liao took it away.
Tu Qingye, who was hiding behind a tree not far away, was almost going crazy with jealousy.
She had been hiding nearby and observing, hoping to find an opportunity to talk to Shen Liao.
Tu Qingyu had already seen through everything. With Dabao's reminder, she even saw several boys and girls who were looking at her not far away.
After playing with Shen Liao for a while, she cleared her throat seemingly unintentionally, looked up at Shen Liao, and said, "My Lord, I'm thirsty."
The two men walked out, and there was no servant following them.
She was thirsty, so Shen Liao had to go back to the carriage to get some water.
Or walk forward and call the waiter to bring some water.
Shen Liao looked at her and said gently, "Then wait here and don't wander around."
He reached out and squeezed her palm again, "I'm not a child anymore, Lord Marquis, why are you telling me this?"
But she still nodded obediently.
If the occasion wasn't wrong, he would have wanted to lean over and kiss someone.
After he turned around and walked some distance, Tu Qingye finally found an opportunity to approach Shen Liao.
She seemed to be playing with maple leaves, walking backwards while watching the right moment to crash into Shen Liao's arms.
How could Shen Liao, who was practicing martial arts, be bumped into by her?
He dodged by moving to the side, Tu Qingye tilted his head back and fell on the pile of leaves beside him.
"Ah—My Lord—!"
The cry was so loud that people nearby looked over here when they heard it.
Mrs. Tu saw Tu Qingye lying on the side and Shen Liao with a bad look on his face.
He quickly went over to rescue her, "I told you to go call your third sister, why did you fall here?"
Goddess, she shouldn't be so impatient to become Shen Liao's concubine.
If other people knew about this, even if she didn't marry, her sister Yun would still have to marry!
Tu Qingye stood up, looked at her stepmother's warning eyes, and immediately followed her words, "Mother, please forgive me, Lord, please forgive me, I just tripped accidentally."
Shen Liao glanced at Tu Qingye, then looked at the other two daughters of the Tu family standing next to them.
In the end, nothing was said.
He bowed and said, "Mother-in-law, Qingyu is still over there. I'll take my leave first. If you have anything to do with Qingyu, we can talk about it after we get back."
Everyone present knew what was going on.
Mrs. Tu was pleasantly surprised by Chen Liao's courtesy and nodded quickly, "Go ahead. Don't keep Qingyu waiting."
But when Chen Liao went back to find Tu Qingyu with water and snacks, Tu Qingyu was already surrounded by a group of boys and girls.
They sat on the maple leaves, talking and laughing.
Chen Liao: ???
In just a short while, how come the world seems to have changed?
When they saw him coming, they quickly stood up.
Although they were all from the capital, they were of different ages, and Shen Liao only knew one or two of them.
One of the boys asked, "Sister Qingyu, who is he?"
"He is the Marquis of Pingjin, my husband."
"So you are the Marquis of Pingjin." Several people saluted, "Greetings, Lord Marquis."
"No need to be so polite, what are you doing..." he asked as he took out a kettle from the lunch box, opened it and handed it to Tu Qingyu.
It was still the same boy, "We just saw Sister Qingyu here alone, so we came to talk to her."
Sister Qingyu?
Calling me so intimately.
Didn’t you see that she has her hair in a bun?
Shen Liao lowered his eyes, trying to hide the jealousy in his eyes.
Another girl also said: "Yes, I never thought that Sister Qingyu is not only beautiful but also has such unique insights."
"That's right, listening to your words is worth ten years of reading. Every word you say is like a revelation to me."
They called him sister one by one, but respectfully called him "Marquis".
Tu Qingyu was surrounded by them, like the moon surrounded by stars.
For a moment, Shen Liao felt that Tu Qingyu was not following him, but a companion of their group.
When Tu Qingyu was drinking water, he saw the kid who called her sister sweetly looking at her without blinking.
The heat in her eyes was about to pierce him.
What's the point of playing this?
Soon he said in a deep voice: "It's getting late, let's go back."
"Ah?" Before Tu Qingyu could say anything, the boy spoke first: "But I saw Sister Qingyu just came out, and it's still early. Are you going back now?"
"Yes, Sister Qingyu." Another fourteen-year-old girl pulled Tu Qingyu aside, leaned close to her ear, and whispered, "Sister Qingyu, your husband is so much older than you, and he's so fierce..."
Shen Liao was so exhausted that his veins were popping out.
You are already fourteen, why are you pretending to be ignorant of the world?
What is old, what is fierce.
Tu Qingyu just found it funny. She first saw the surprised looks in the eyes of these people when they looked at her.
There were also whispers, "That sister over there is so pretty, I really want to go over and talk to her."
'Whose daughter is she? Why have we never seen her?'
Then she smiled at a few people, and they came over.
