Chapter 316 What's the best gift for a child?

The next day, Cheng Lanying was released from the ancestral hall.

In Bishui Garden, Cheng Lanying was so hungry that she ate a lot.

"Mom, why don't you save me! I'm starving to death!"

Bixi glanced outside and saw no one else. She said, "What's the point of hating your mother? If you want to hate someone, hate that person. She was the one who locked you up in the ancestral hall!"

"Hmph!" Cheng Lanying hated Lu Lingyun.

She hated Lu Lingyun to death!

The stepmother in charge is not a good person at all. Don't think she doesn't know that she is just siding with her adopted daughter and deliberately targeting her, the concubine's daughter.

Obviously it wasn't a big deal, but she was punished so severely just because she was jealous and because she was favored by her father!

"You didn't go to ask daddy to save me!" she continued.

When Li Bixi heard this, her eyes darkened. She looked at Cheng Lanying, "Lanying, don't take your father too seriously. You have to please him, but don't take it seriously."

"Mom, what do you mean?"

"You just need to please him more and be smart. Do whatever he likes so that he likes you more. Do you understand?"

"Tsk! Daddy dotes on me the most! He likes me no matter what I am like!"

Just at this time, Cheng Yunshuo came back.

"Daddy!" Cheng Lanying, who was eating, saw Cheng Yunshuo coming back. She immediately dropped her chopsticks, jumped off the chair and ran towards Cheng Yunshuo.

She knelt the whole night, although she was lazy most of the time and sat on the mat when no one was watching her. Her knees were also covered with knee pads that her mother had quickly sent her. But in the end, she could not bear kneeling for too long and her legs went weak as soon as she touched the ground.

“Ouch!”

She fell to the ground with a thud.

Cheng Yunshuo saw her fall, took a few quick steps, and quickly picked her up, "What happened to you?"

"Daddy~" Cheng Lanying was picked up by him and immediately burst into tears, "My legs hurt."

Cheng Yunshuo naturally remembered that she was punished to kneel all night yesterday. He held Cheng Lanying and put her on the bed, "Be a good boy in the future and don't make trouble."

"Dad, you don't know how cold the ancestral hall is. I was punished to kneel down and it hurt so much. I also had to copy the family rules. I was looking forward to you coming to save me all night."

"Then you should not cause trouble and steal Suying's things in the future."

"How did I steal her things?" Cheng Lanying said coquettishly with a pout, "I just thought her paper iris was pretty and wanted to play with it, but she went and complained that I stole her things. She is so stingy!"

Cheng Yunshuo said nothing when he heard this.

Seeing that he ignored her, Cheng Lanying continued to act coquettishly, "Dad, my legs really hurt. I haven't eaten all night. I'm starving."

Hearing this, Cheng Yunshuo looked at Cheng Lanying, who was acting coquettishly in front of him, and asked, "Do you like paper ibis that much?"

Cheng Lanying thought about it and nodded, "My sister has it, and I want to have it too."

She didn't want to play at all, she just wanted to steal Cheng Suying's things.

What Cheng Suying has, she also wants.

"I'm taking a day off tomorrow, I'll take you to fly orioles."

Cheng Lanying was excited when she heard this and immediately hugged Cheng Yunshuo's arm, "Daddy is the best. I know that Daddy loves Lanying the most."

As she spoke, she couldn't help but look at her mother who was standing beside her and gave her a confident look.

That means her father favors her and dotes on her very much.

the next day.

As usual, Lu Lingyun took Cheng Suying to pay her respects to Qin.

On the way there, Cheng Suying saw a paper oriole flying in the sky.

"Dad, Dad, higher!"

"Higher! It's so fun!"

“It’s so fun!”

She heard the sound and looked in the direction of the sound, and saw Cheng Yunshuo accompanying Cheng Lanying to release paper birds.

Cheng Lanying clapped her hands excitedly, while Cheng Yunshuo beside her tried his best to play with her.

When Cheng Suying saw this scene, her eyes widened and she couldn't help feeling sad.

"Siying, do you want to release a paper iris too?" At this time, she heard Lu Lingyun's voice.

Cheng Suying shook her head violently, "I don't want to let go anymore."

She followed her mother to Qin's yard.

After they left, Cheng Lanying, who was flying paper orioles, couldn't help but glance back at them.

There was pride in his eyes.

Humph! She deliberately released paper ibis on this road.

I did it on purpose for her to see!

She just wanted to tell Cheng Suying that it didn't matter that she had a stepmother to support her, what was more important was that she had the love of her father.

Even if she made a mistake, Cheng Yunshuo would continue to pamper her!

There's no way to fight her!

In Qin's room, Lu Lingjun heard what was said before she even entered.

"Shao Jing, I heard that the old Duke of Liu's mansion is getting worse day by day, and the whole mansion is serving him. I'm afraid it's not good for you, as the grandson's wife, to keep living here with me."

"Aunt, the old duke doesn't need me, so I'm just making up the numbers."

Qin Shaojing said.

"You can't say that. This is a critical moment. You have to be by my side. Your second branch is already weak. I remember that the position of the prince of Duke Liu's mansion has not been decided yet. The old Duke's wife is partial to your lineage. You still have to go back and seize the opportunity with your husband and mother-in-law." Qin took Qin Shaojing aside and confided in him.

How could Qin not care about her only niece? She had ignored the Marquis's Mansion for the past six years. However, Qin often went to inquire about the latest situation of Duke Liu's Mansion.

The old Duke Liu of Duke's Mansion won't be in office for long, and this is a crucial time to fight for the position.

Maybe their second branch still has a hope of getting the position of crown prince.

By then, Qin Shaojing, as the daughter-in-law of the second son of the second wife, will also have the hope of competing for the next crown prince position.

But how could she know that the fight for the throne in Duke Liu's mansion has now come directly to Qin Shaojing's generation. Whoever can give birth to a great-sun will have the throne of the crown prince passed to that person's lineage.

She didn't even know that her good niece had come back to her place to avoid disaster because she had caused a big disaster in Duke Liu's mansion, destroying their only hope.

Now Liu Ye and her mother-in-law both hate her so much, how could she dare to go back!

At this moment, Lu Lingyun led Cheng Suying in from outside.

Seeing her, Qin immediately smiled, "Yun'er, Siying, you are here."

"Yes, mother."

"grandmother."

They both responded to Qin at the same time.

Qin called them over and said, "You two came at the right time, Yun'er, you always have a lot of ideas. The old Duke in Shaojing's house is in poor health. Please help Shaojing and ask her what gifts she can give to the old Duke when she returns."

Qin also wanted to raise Qin Shaojing's status through the old Duke.

When Lu Lingyun heard this, she thought of Qin Shaojing bullying Cheng Siying yesterday. She half-jokingly said, "The old Duke is so old, he must have seen all kinds of good things. If I were to ask you, there's nothing better than giving him a child! If Shaojing could have a child back home, the old Duke would definitely be very happy!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Qin Shaojing's eyes tensed up instantly, and he stared at Lu Lingyun closely.

Qin's eyes lit up.
