Chapter 241 Asking Lu Lingyun to Come Back
Lu Lingyun stayed at her mother's house for two days.
During these two days, the Marquis's Mansion was turned upside down.
First, Cheng Yunshuo lost his job and returned home in a huff. Then, the Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching, and a bunch of troubles cropped up inside and outside the mansion, including three babies who cried or felt unwell at night and needed to be watched all the time.
Yes, Lu Lingyun didn't even take the child away. Three wet nurses stayed in the house, and she told the children to go to Cheng Yunshuo if they had any problems.
For a while, Cheng Yunshuo was completely overwhelmed and had no idea how to deal with it.
He can still push away miscellaneous tasks, but he can't even push away children's matters.
He hurriedly called Qiu Ling to look after the children, but Lu Lingyun had been looking after the three children since they were born, and Qiu Ling couldn't even take care of Bing'an, let alone the other two.
Cheng Yunshuo was not the type who would just shirk his responsibilities without any sense of responsibility. He had responsibilities in his heart. Three babies were crying in front of him and he coaxed them one by one. He imitated Lu Lingyun and took care of the children all night long.
Within two days, he could no longer hold on.
"When will your young lady come back?"
"My Lord, the young lady said she wants to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival at her parents' home."
"How can this be possible!" Cheng Yunshuo put the child down in Lu Lingyun's room and walked around the room twice, "I'll go get her back!"
This was the first time that Cheng Yunshuo took the initiative to pick someone up.
In the past, when Du Ruo went back to her aunt's house in a bad mood, he didn't think of going to pick her up. That time, it was because Du Ruo's two brothers were there. They suggested and encouraged him to go and bring her back. Moreover, if Du Ruo was in a bad mood, he would never tolerate it.
But Lu Lingyun had no choice but to bring the person back regardless of whether he was willing or not!
Cheng Yunshuo asked Qiu Ling and the wet nurses to take good care of the children. He asked Qingfeng to prepare the carriage, and before leaving, he thought of taking some gifts with him, so he went straight to Lu's house to pick them up.
Lu Lingyun lived a good life at her mother's home.
She is different from Lu Hanyi when she comes back.
Everyone in the Lu family respected her and served her well. On the first day after she came back, Liu and the Lu family asked Lu Lingyun why she came back. Lu Lingyun just said that she missed home, and they didn't ask any more questions.
Liu thought that Lu Lingyun must have been offended in the Marquis' Mansion, and wanted to ask her indirectly what was wrong. However, when she met Lu Lingyun's calm eyes, she did not dare to ask any more questions. The maids and nannies she had arranged for Lu Lingyun as a dowry were even more strict with their mouths and would not reveal anything to her, the original master.
This made Liu feel depressed.
There are no old people from the Lu family here anymore; they are all people around Lu Lingyun!
Liu thought that something must have happened, and while she was thinking about it, Cheng Yunshuo came in person.
"Mother-in-law." Cheng Yunshuo came with his people and a lot of gifts. "Is father-in-law here?"
"The prince is here!" Liu smiled when she saw Cheng Yunshuo, "Your father-in-law is not here, he went to his colleague's house to have tea!"
Upon hearing this, Cheng Yunshuo asked directly, "Where is Lingyun?"
"Yun'er is in her old courtyard."
"Please ask my mother-in-law to take me there."
"Okay, okay." Liu looked him up and down, "Are you two having a quarrel?"
Cheng Yunshuo's ears immediately turned red. "I did not do well. Mother-in-law, please speak well of Lingyun for me and ask her to come back with me."
When Liu heard this, her gossipy smile froze.
Cheng Yunshuo, a prince, could actually say such words and even take the initiative to ask her to make peace.
An indescribable strangeness spread in her heart.
Her daughter Lu Hanyi came back to her parents' home before, but Li Wenxun never did that!
She suppressed her jealousy and sourness, smiled and agreed, and led people to Lu Lingyun's yard, "Lingyun, look who's here!"
Chun Xing and Chun He were guarding the gate of Lu Lingyun's courtyard. When the two maids saw Cheng Yunshuo following behind, they immediately stopped him and said, "Please go back, my lord! The young lady said she doesn't want to see you these days!"
Seeing this, Liu was about to curse, but Cheng Yunshuo said humbly, "Chun Xing and Chun He, you two go in and tell Ling Yun that I know I was wrong. Tell Ling Yun to forgive me this time. I will never do it again."
Liu: “!!”
Liu stared with wide eyes at Cheng Yunshuo who admitted his mistake in a gentle voice.
This, this, this...
This is no longer the Ningyang Marquis’ son who was known for his dissoluteness, lawlessness, and angering his parents.
What on earth had her silly daughter lost her mind to say that Cheng Yunshuo would favor his concubine and kill his wife, making her live a miserable life!
Chun Xing snorted after hearing what Cheng Yunshuo said, turned around and went into the house. After a while, she came out.
"The young lady said that she accepts your apology, but she will stay for a few more days. Please go back, my lord."
Hearing the first half of the sentence, Cheng Yunshuo was delighted. Hearing the second half, he became anxious. "How long will Lingyun stay?"
"The young lady didn't say."
Cheng Yunshuo couldn't accept it. He strode inside, determined to meet Lu Lingyun face to face.
Chun Xing and Chun He opened their hands to block. Chun Xing raised her eyebrows and said, "My Lord, if you force your way in, it will really make the young lady unhappy. Then, no matter how much you say, the lady will not go back with you!"
Hearing this, Cheng Yunshuo stopped talking. He looked unwillingly at the small courtyard with the closed door and sighed helplessly, "You two should take good care of the young lady and persuade her not to be angry. If she is still angry, come and scold me, don't make yourself angry."
Cheng Yunshuo was very humble and sincere, and left with his people.
Chun Xing looked at his back and snorted, not at all used to it, "What were you doing this morning?"
That happened in broad daylight outside the palace, and he humiliated his wife for a palace maid. He deserved what happened!
Chun Xing cursed secretly and couldn't help feeling a little angry. Their young lady would have to leave him alone and see if he would dare to do it again in the future!
Cheng Yunshuo returned with nothing, and the mansion was still in chaos.
Fortunately, two days later, his parents came back.
The return of the head of the household finally allowed him to breathe a sigh of relief.
But it’s not that good!
After Qin and the old marquis came back, they found that Lu Lingyun was not there. After asking the servants, they found out that it was their own bad son who made Lu Lingyun angry and sent her back to her mother's home. That day, the old marquis took over the family business and severely punished Cheng Yunshuo.
"You bastard! Lingyun is so kind and gentle, she always thinks of you and tries her best to run the family, but you made her angry and drove her away. You are a beast!"
It was rare that Cheng Yunshuo didn't scold his father this time.
When the old marquis saw his son like that, he pulled out a cane and whipped him a few times.
Qin was also angry. As soon as she returned home, her good daughter-in-law was gone. But after watching the whipping, she still said with heartache, "Forget it, forget it, Master. Yun Shuo is still young."
"Get out of my way, you are a loving mother who spoils her son. If I don't beat this bastard to death today, I will be ashamed of the ancestors of the Cheng family!"
At this time, Lu Lingyun stood up from the courtyard. She calculated that the time was almost up.
"Let's go back to the Marquis' Mansion."
After all, a perfect wife always shows up at the critical moment.
