Chapter 1057: Past Events - Love Does Not Last Long 4
Li nodded, but she still felt distressed.
My daughter should have been raised by my side, but instead she went to a battlefield. What kind of daughter would do such a thing?
But it’s good that she’s back. We have to keep a close eye on her from now on and not let her run around anymore.
"Big sister."
A soft voice was heard, and Asi looked over.
There were two beautiful women standing behind Li. The older one was wearing bright clothes and looked very beautiful. The younger one was more plain and elegant, but her peach blossom eyes were also very attractive.
Asi had been on the battlefield for a long time and had hardly seen any women. When he first saw such a beautiful woman, he couldn't help but feel a good impression of her.
He tilted his head and asked, "Who are you?"
Guan Wenyue stepped forward, bent her legs, and said softly, "Sister, I am the Second Madam's niece. I have heard of you for a long time, and I am so happy to see you now."
Asi just nodded slightly and didn't say much.
I just followed Li to her room.
Mrs. Li had already instructed the kitchen to prepare the cakes that Ah Si liked, and she also specially asked someone to go to the street to buy sugar figures and desserts.
When I saw my daughter, I wished I could put all the good things in front of her at once.
As Si's eyes really lit up as he looked at the table full of pastries.
My mouth is watering.
"Mom, you are so good to me!"
She wanted to throw herself onto the table, her little face full of joy.
"You child, if your mother doesn't treat you well, who else can she treat well?"
As she spoke, Li began to cry again. "It's all my fault, mother. I didn't keep you by my side. You've suffered these past three years, haven't you?"
Asi, holding a candied haws in his mouth, turned his head to look at Li, just in time to see her lowering her head to wipe her tears. He had not been able to look at his mother carefully because there were so many people outside.
This time, after a closer look, I noticed the difference. Li had a very gentle appearance and usually looked good without makeup, but now, she had two long, slightly sharp eyebrows and heavy makeup on her face.
It looks weird no matter how you look at it.
Ah Si puffed up his cheeks and said after a while, "Mom, your makeup has always been done by Sister Qiulan."
Qiulan happened to be nearby and immediately said, "Miss, please don't flatter me. Madam's current makeup was all done by Mo Lan."
"Hmm," Asi pursed his lips and said nothing. He looked at Qiulan and was suddenly hit on the head by Li.
Li smiled and said, "I knew you would say it's not pretty. Mother is no longer young. If I don't let Mo Lan paint it more heavily, it will lose its dignity. This is good."
Asi stayed in Li's room for a while and then returned to his own room.
Qiulan followed Asi, carrying the pastries she bought from the pastry shop.
She whispered, "Miss, Qiulan was given to Madam by Madam Guan."
Qiulan has never liked Mo Lan. If she did something for the good of the lady, she wouldn't be angry. But she was very annoyed when she instigated the lady to fight with the marquis every day.
"Miss, you don't know how loving the Marquis and his wife were before, but now he hasn't entered his wife's room for a long time!"
"Well," Asi nodded, "I understand. You can go back first."
Qiulan responded and walked out.
As Ah Si untied his belt, he asked, "Why didn't I see Shi En when I got home today?"
"My dear Miss, His Majesty has held a banquet in the imperial court today to celebrate the Crown Prince and the Second Master's return to the capital. The Marquis has already gone to the palace with the young master."
