Chapter 53 Daddy only likes my mom

The moonlight was bright, and the couple walked back to Lan Yaju under the moonlight. While Qingqing was changing her clothes, she asked Shen Han, "You came back in a hurry, is there something wrong?"

Shen Han didn't have any urgent business, but when he heard his mother asking them to go over, he subconsciously felt very resistant.

The old lady became a widow at a young age, and Shen Han has always been very filial to his mother, but now he is becoming more and more impatient with his mother's temper.

"I just had a drink at my grandmother's house and I feel a little tired." He made up an excuse.

"If you feel tired, just rest early." Qingqing began to make her bed. "You can get up early tomorrow to attend the court."

As she spoke, she bent her slender waist and made the bed neatly with her hands. In the hazy night, Shen Han couldn't help but take a breath as he glanced at her exquisite back.

Then, the defenseless Qingqing was thrown onto the soft quilt by him.

"Didn't you say you were tired?" Qingqing glared at her.

"I am a little tired, but we have to listen to grandma's words."

Qingqing thought seriously: "What?"

There was a smile in his narrow eyes: "Among the four of us brothers, I am the only one who still has no children. Shouldn't I be anxious?"

The light gauze bed curtains were then scattered, and inside the mandarin duck tent, they continued to make love until midnight.

As autumn arrives, the weather is no longer as hot and humid as during the hot summer. People no longer have to hide in their houses to cool off, and each room and courtyard is gradually becoming lively.

Counting on her fingers, Qingqing has been married into the Marquis's Mansion for nearly three and a half years. Although she is still not favored by the old lady and has to spend most of the day learning the tiring rules and etiquette, her life has gradually improved thanks to Shen Han's protection.

That day, she and Nanny Yu learned the rules for the whole morning and finally the time came. Seeing that her master looked listless, Lingzhi suggested going for a walk in the garden.

It was early autumn, and the chrysanthemums in the courtyard were about to bloom. The master and servant were admiring the chrysanthemums in the garden when a little boy ran over. When she saw Qingqing, she was not shy and looked up and asked, "You are so handsome. Which family are you from?"

Although he was young and didn't know anyone, Qingqing recognized the child at first sight.

He is Lin Ruoqing's son, Haoer.

Ever since Hao'er entered the academy, he was rarely seen in the mansion. Qingqing had only seen the child once when Shen Han had just returned. It has been almost half a year now.

Children grow fast. Compared to that time, he has grown a lot taller. Qingqing looked at him, but the light in her eyes gradually dimmed.

This child now looks more like Shen Han than when she first saw him.

"Which room are you from?" Seeing Qingqing silent, Haoer looked up and asked again.

"I am the wife of Mr. Shen San." Qingqing said.

After hearing this, Hao'er asked in surprise, "Are you my father's wife?"

Qingqing nodded and said, "That's right."

The little boy pursed his lips upon hearing this and snorted, "But my wet nurse said that only my mother should be Daddy's wife."

This time, before Qingqing could respond, Lingzhi on the side said rudely: "Who is your wet nurse? How dare you say such shameless words? Our wife is the legitimate wife of the Shen family, who is your mother?" "You girl, how dare you insult my mother, you are so mean." As he said that, the little boy put his hands on his waist and said angrily: "My wet nurse told me that my father was going to marry my mother, but later a village girl took her place. My father didn't want to marry her at all. The person he really likes is my mother."

At this moment, a little maid came over in a hurry, calling out, and when she saw Hao'er, she hurried over, stroking her chest and said, "My little master, you made me look for you so hard. Didn't the young lady tell you not to run around, don't run around."

"This man insulted my mother!" Hao'er pointed at Lingzhi, his eyes filled with tears.

The maid found the young master, and finally put her heart at ease. Then she noticed Qingqing and her servant. Because Qingqing didn't come out often, the little maid looked at Qingqing and hesitated for a moment: "You are the wife of the third room."

The third wife was born in a humble family, but she was a great beauty.

When the little maid saw Qingqing's beauty, she guessed her identity.

Lingzhi was still angry about what Hao'er had just said, and she also disliked the maid who took care of Hao'er. Her face was puffed up, and she said to the maid with an unhappy tone, "This is the Third Madam. Your young master is so naughty that he offended our Madam by speaking without restraint."

Seeing Lingzhi's overwhelming aura, the maid quickly bowed and apologized to Qingqing, saying, "The young master is young and ignorant, please don't be offended, Madam."

Qingqing glanced at Hao'er. The child stiffened his neck and looked at Qingqing with disgust in his eyes. Qingqing said to him with a wooden face, "I don't care who your father really likes. Now I am his wife. Everyone else is just a guest."

Shen Han is willing to spoil this mother and son, but she doesn't need to. If they can stay here and behave themselves, it won't bother her at all. But from what the child said just now, it's obvious that someone is harboring uneasy feelings.

Qingqing said this and left with Lingzhi Shishi.

In the afternoon, Qingqing was about to go to bed for a nap when the maid at the door came in and said, "Madam, my cousin wants to see you."

When she heard that it was Lin Ruoqing, Lingzhi said quickly, "Her son just spoke rudely in front of the lady. What is she going to do here at this time?"

"Please ask her to come in." Qingqing said lightly.

After a while, Lin Ruoqing brought the little girl who was coaxing Hao'er in the garden today into the house.

"Cousin-"

When she saw Qingqing, Lin Ruoqing bowed to her steadily.

These noble ladies from high-class families were full of ulterior motives. Lin Ruoqing also had feelings for Shen Han, so Qingqing didn't want to waste time talking to her. She asked directly, "Cousin, there's no need to be polite. You came here suddenly. Is there something wrong?"

Lin Ruoqing could hear Qingqing's impatience. She smiled awkwardly, then glanced at the little maid beside her and said to Qingqing, "I heard from Ruhua that Hao'er bumped into my cousin's wife in the garden today. This child is naughty. I feel really bad about it, so I came here to apologize to my cousin's wife."

"My cousin, you are too kind. Even though the words of a child may be unpleasant to hear, I am not so petty as to take the words of an ignorant child to heart." Qingqing replied calmly.

Lin Ruoqing glanced at Qingqing's attitude. She wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief and said with a choked voice, "Cousin, I know that I am bothering you by following my cousin back home. I can understand that you are tired of me."

She looked up at Qingqing, then lowered her head again, with a sad face: "I'm sure you've heard about my past with my cousin. Actually, times have changed, and I don't know what my cousin is thinking. In fact, I don't care about him anymore. Right now, I only regard him as a benefactor who saved me from danger."

How could Qingqing not hear the provocation in her words?
She smiled faintly and replied, "It's best that my cousin thinks so. As for my husband, he naturally helped my cousin because he saw that she was in a pitiful situation. I have no reason to misunderstand him. He is my husband and I trust him."
