Rebirth of the High Gate Mistress

Chapter 95 Li Ling clearly rejects Qingluan

"How can this be done?" Before the old lady could reply, Qingluan couldn't help but stood up and said.

As soon as she said it, Qingluan saw that everyone's eyes in the room were focused on her, and she realized that she had overreacted. She smiled awkwardly and added, "I mean it's freezing cold. How can my cousin go out and run around with my cousin?"

She looked at the old lady and said, "Grandma, this is absolutely impossible. What do you think?"

He couldn't stop his cousin from going on official business, but Qingluan didn't want Jingshu to go with him. She had a twisted mentality of being in love and not being able to see her cousin being with that woman.

 But, can she make the decision on such a thing?

Li Ling didn't pay attention to her words at all. He still asked the old lady: "I don't know if grandma wants to go out now. If she doesn't go far away, my grandson plans to let Shu'er take your car. That car is spacious and there are a lot of people inside." The stove can also keep you warmer."

The old lady smiled and said, "I don't want to go out in the cold weather. Since you decide to take Shu'er with you, just take that car."

As he spoke, the old lady sighed slightly: "That car was given to me by your mother."

Although the eldest princess and the Duke of Zhenguo were at odds with each other, she always respected the old lady, and the old lady always thought about this princess daughter-in-law.

Mentioning the princess's daughter-in-law's filial piety to her car, the old lady not only thought of Fu Xi's kindness, she looked at her grandson and grandson's daughter-in-law and said: "I know that you two went to the princess's house to see your mother after the New Year, but now you I’m going on a long trip, so I’ll take the time to visit her again.”

As she spoke, she winked at Aunt Xu beside her. Nanny Xu understood, turned around and went to the inner room. In a moment, she fetched two pieces of Suzhou embroidery and brought them to Li Lingjingshu.

The old lady pointed to the two pieces of satin and said: "This was sent by your cousin's order years ago. It is a serious piece of fine Su embroidery. I sent five pieces in total. Your sister-in-law, Shu'er and San Yatou each got it. One, these two batches are specially left for your mother."

The old lady paused, picked up the tea cup and took a sip, then continued: "Although your mother lacks nothing, she liked this kind of food when she was young. When you go over in the past two days, bring this to her. "

Li Ling nodded slightly, Jingshu looked at the old lady and smiled and agreed: "My husband is free in the past two days, so we will go visit my mother and bring my grandmother's thoughts with me."

Qingluan on the side felt as if he was stuffed with cotton balls, feeling extremely depressed.

Seeing that her cousin was about to take Shen out, seeing how loving they were, her heart hurt more than acupuncture. She was also heartbroken to see that her grandmother did not allocate materials to her. Although she was a princess, she had the best food and clothing. It was not impossible to get such Su embroidery, but from the distribution of the five pieces of materials from her grandmother, You can see it.

 Grandma, after all, she is still regarded as an outsider.

Thinking that her beloved grandmother treated Jingshu more kindly than him in this matter, she shed tears of grievance again.

It’s just that no matter how sad and wronged she is, no one is surprised that she cries a lot.

Maybe the old lady is dim-sighted. She heard that her grandson and grandson-in-law were going on a long journey, so she just chatted with the two of them about things on the way. She didn't even notice that the granddaughter beside her dropped the golden pea again.

Jingshu noticed that Qingluan's face turned pale since Li Ling proposed to take her out, and she cried again when the old lady talked about the ingredients.

 But, it has nothing to do with her.

Li Ling really didn't notice her cousin's emotions because he didn't even look at her from beginning to end.

Perhaps Li Ling had always been wary of Qingluan. After explaining his intention, he took Jingshu and stood up to leave after less than a cup of tea.

Just as they stood up and were about to walk out, they heard Qingluan calling from above with a tearful voice: "Cousin--"

Li Ling did not look back and walked straight out. Jing Shu glanced back at Qingluan, turned around and left with Li Ling in her arm.

Back at Qingfeng Garden, Li Ling sent Jingshu back to the main room, then went to the North Study Room. He was about to go out, and he had to take care of all the unfinished affairs of the City Patrol Department in order to feel at ease.

Li Ling was busy working on his case when he heard the door creak open. Li Ling raised his eyes and saw that it was Qingluan. Now Li Ling felt uncontrollably upset when he saw this cousin.

Especially in the middle of the night, and she came alone. Such disrespectful behavior made him look down upon her even more.

Li Ling closed the document and said in a cold commanding tone: "It's so late, you go back to your room."

Now, he really doesn't even like to say perfunctory words to this ignorant cousin.

With that said, without waiting for Qingluan to speak, Li Ling called out: "Ling Xiao, Ling Xiao!"

Ling Xiao heard the call and hurriedly came from outside with a kettle in hand. He entered the study and saw Qingluan here. He glanced at Li Ling's livid face and was shocked. He quickly replied: "I just went to the stove to heat up." It’s water.”

No one can enter the master's study. Except for the prince's wife, the master never allows other women to enter. Even if it was daily sweeping, Ling Xiao was the only one in charge, and even the girls who were sweeping were not allowed to get even half a step closer.

Unexpectedly, when he went to get hot water, someone slipped in. She was a woman and a princess with a special status.

 Li Ling said to Ling Xiao with a cold face: "If you don't stay out properly, who asked you to wander around, I think your job will be over."

Ling Xiao was a slave given to her son by the eldest princess. Although Li Ling was not a good-tempered man, he rarely scolded him because of his mother.

Ling Xiao saw his master's expression was not kind, so he hurriedly replied: "You are the one who failed in your duty, you deserve to die!"

When Qingluan saw Li Ling beating people and scolding dogs, he felt like he was doing it for her.

However, she can't care about so much at the moment. If she doesn't say what's in her heart, she will never have a chance again.

"Cousin, I'll leave after just saying a few words." Qingluan knew in his heart that after his cousin called Ling Xiao in, the next step would definitely be to order Ling Xiao to send her back.

Li Ling suppressed his anger and replied with a cold face: "If you have anything to say, we'll talk about it tomorrow."

As expected, the next sentence was: "Ling Xiao, send the princess back."

Just as Ling Xiao was about to step forward, Qingluan burst into tears. She choked with sobs and said to Li Ling: "Cousin, are you so fed up with me now? You can't even let me say a word."

Li Ling was really too lazy to look at her crying look. He flicked his sleeves, turned his face away, and said in a cold tone: "It's late today. If you have anything to say, we'll talk about it tomorrow."

Qingluan refused to leave. She stepped forward, stood behind Li Ling, and said, "I know my cousin dislikes me for being a burden. It's just that I am alone in that cannibal palace. Apart from my cousin, , Who else can I rely on?”

As she said that, she started crying again and said with choked sobs: "You all think that I am a princess, and I should be content with the fine clothes and food. But how do you know my suffering? I don't have the protection of my biological mother, and my father doesn't like me either." , even the decent servants in the palace dare to look down on me."

“I would rather be the daughter of an ordinary family, with parents who love me and brothers and sisters I can rely on.”

She cried heartily and said heartbreakingly: "I really hate my mother. She was forced to enter the palace and had a lifetime of misfortune. Why did she give birth to me again and leave me alone in the palace to suffer."

Hearing Qingluan mention his sister-in-law, Li Ling sighed secretly. He turned around and waved his hand towards Ling Xiao, signaling him to step back.

There were only two people left in the study. Qingluan was sobbing in front of Li Ling and was very sad.
