Chapter 58 Aunt Qiu sees through men

Qiu Ling’s house arrest has been lifted, and Xing Dairong can also stop taking pregnancy-maintaining medicine.

After Lu Lingyun's warning, both of them calmed down a lot.

After Qiu Ling came out of Qiuxiang Courtyard, she immediately went to Lu Lingyun to pay her respects.

"Young Madam." Qiu Ling stood in front of Lu Lingyun.

Lu Lingyun said nothing and drank a cup of tea in silence.

Qiu Ling stood there obediently, not daring to speak, the look of grievance in her eyes becoming more and more intense.

Seeing her like that, Lu Lingyun put down the teacup and asked, "You still blame me?"

Qiu Ling lowered her head and said, "I dare not."

To be honest, as the mistress of the house, Lu Lingyun was already the most tolerant among the wealthy families. Which mistress was as tolerant to her concubine as she was?

Not to mention those who are overly jealous and mistreat their concubines, the vast majority of mistresses require their concubines to come and behave themselves every day, wait on them during meals, and wash their feet at night. They do not ask maids and servants to do the work that they can do, but instead order their concubines to do it, and they often make some concessions and deductions from them.

Those who dare to cause trouble will be punished lightly by family rules.

Lu Lingyun was truly kind and generous to the concubines in her backyard.

She rarely set rules for them, never treated them harshly in terms of daily necessities, and even gave them rewards from time to time.

There is no need to compare her with other mistresses. Just compare her with her mother-in-law, Qin, and the kindness behind Lu Lingyun's throne is obvious.

The old marquis' concubines never had a good life like Qiu Ling and Xing Dairong.

Qiu Ling knew very well that she had met a good mistress. Cheng Yunshuo punished her, and Lu Lingjun came back to vent her anger. How could she resent Lu Lingjun?

That's it. That's it...

"Okay, the prince is indeed biased this time." Lu Lingjun expressed Qiu Ling's grievance in one sentence.

She was confined to Qiuxiang Courtyard for half a month, and spent most of the time feeling aggrieved by Cheng Yunshuo's partiality. She gave her whole heart to Cheng Yunshuo without reservation, and they had a relationship of more than ten years since childhood, but he treated her like that. It was true that she was a maid, but did Cheng Yunshuo really have no feelings for her at all!

"Young Madam." Qiu Ling sobbed softly, "I have served the Crown Prince for more than ten years, but in the end, I am not even as good as a woman who betrayed the Crown Prince. I'd rather die!"

"Alright, alright," Lu Lingyun saw her sobbing and asked her to sit down. "I know you're upset. I've already dealt with Xing Dairong. Don't argue with her in the future. Just come to me if anything happens."

Qiu Ling was still crying, "I won't fight with her anymore, it's pointless, she has a child, and she is favored by the prince, she is better than me, from now on she can do whatever she wants, no matter how angry she is, I won't say a word."

She looked devastated.

Lu Lingyun sighed, "I'll ask the prince to come over to your place later, so you don't have to feel so wronged."

Qiu Ling shook her head while sobbing. She raised her tearful eyes and looked at him steadily, "No, Madam, I have seen clearly. It is useless for me to rely on the prince. I don't want to rely on him anymore. From now on, I will follow you well, Madam, and serve you all my life, and follow you until old age!"

Lu Lingyun: "......"

Qiu Ling has seen through Cheng Yunshuo. What a lousy man, what a lousy love, nothing like the goodness of a young lady!

Instead of competing with Xing Dairong for a little bit of favor, it is better to live with Lu Lingyun.

Following Lu Lingyun, you won’t have to endure bullying or feel sad, you’ll have meat to eat and clothes to wear, and you’ll live a stable life. It’s no better than being a man!

Seeing Qiu Ling's overly open-minded look, Lu Lingyun said that this result was not what she wanted.

It happened that the warehouse delivered the new jewelry added this year, and Lu Lingyun asked Qiu Ling to choose first. In addition to the extra piece she promised to give her last time, she also gave Qiu Ling one piece from her share.

"This jade and gold hairpin with tassels is very nice. You can take it too. Don't be angry."

Qiu Ling looked at the expensive gold hairpin that was given to her as a reward for the mistress, and she couldn't help but feel again that what she thought was right.

What's good about a broken man? Has Cheng Yunshuo ever given her such a good golden hairpin?

no!

She no longer counted on Cheng Yunshuo, stopped competing for men, and would follow Lu Lingjun from now on.

"Thank you, Madam. Qiu Ling will follow you from now on. Whatever you say is what I will do! I will not listen to what the prince says!"

Lu Lingyun: "......"

She didn't want to compete with Cheng Yunshuo for the concubine.

She just wanted her to be obedient, not to be so loyal.

After Qiu Ling left Lu Lingyun's place, she met Xing Dairong again on her way back.

This time, she remembered Lu Lingyun's teachings deeply and refused to argue with her.

Xing Dairong had a hard time during this period, as she became more restrained due to Lu Lingyun's pressure. However, her relationship with Cheng Yunshuo had improved a lot. She had originally wanted to mock Qiu Ling for being unloved, but she didn't even get a glance from Qiu Ling.

Qiu Ling just left.

Xing Dairong saw her cold back and said, "Oh, just be honest!"

Let's see how she fights her.

Xing Dairong also came to see Lu Lingyun.

Having learned a lot of basic rules in the past half month, Xing Dairong knew that she had to be humble in front of Lu Lingyun in the Marquis' Mansion.

"How is Aunt Xing's pregnancy these days?"

"Very well." Xing Dairong shuddered slightly, "No need to take medicine anymore."

"Okay, since your pregnancy is stable, you don't need to take the medicine for the time being."

"Mrs. Xie."

Lu Lingyun glanced at her belly and said, "Sit down."

"Okay." Xing Dairong sat next to her. At this moment, she couldn't help but feel that there was really a baby in her belly. At least with the child there, Lu Lingjun would not do anything to her.

Thinking of this, she felt a little tougher.

"This is the jewelry that was just delivered from the warehouse. Please pick one."

Lu Lingyun was not partial and gave Xing Dairong what he deserved.

Of course, she and Qiu Ling had picked out all the jewelry first, and the ones left now were simple ones that they didn't like very much.

Even so, Xing Dairong's eyes lit up when he saw these things.

After being in this era for so long, she has gradually discovered that money is eternal, and you should get as much as you can!

Thinking in this way, she should have agreed to be the mansion's concubine earlier. The monthly allowance and other things should have been given to her!

"Young Madam, can I have one more piece?" Xing Dairong picked and chose, and couldn't let go of several of them.

When Lu Lingyun heard this, he raised his eyebrows.

Looking at Xing Dairong's current appearance, she is completely different from when I first saw her.

At that time, she even pulled Qiu Kui to sit and eat cakes together, saying that everyone is equal and true love comes first. But now she also knows the charm of worldly money.

"Why?" Lu Lingyun did not directly ask if it was possible or not, but just asked back.

Xing Dairong's eyes turned and she touched her belly, "I'm pregnant."

Lu Lingyun smiled faintly when she heard this. "When you were pregnant, I gave you a box of jewelry. You have no achievements, so there is really no precedent for this."
