Chapter 1747: Chapter 1740: How Long to Be Entangled with the Past?
"Between husband and wife, there must be mutual tolerance. You should not blame him anymore."
Leng Muling was quite surprised, not expecting Lu’s mother to be such an understanding and upright person.
She rose and slightly curtsied, "With mother-in-law above, this daughter-in-law dares not quarrel."
She had a grudge against Lu Mian, but would not forget her status or manners.
"Very well. As expected of Zhuo Family’s legitimate daughter. Go back and rest well." Lu’s mother raised her hand, instructing the maid by her side to help Leng Muling return to rest.
She was alone in the front hall, waiting for Lu Mian.
Lu Mian had informed his parents, telling them not to come to the capital.
But Lu’s mother insisted on coming. When mother and son met, naturally it was not pleasant.
Lu Mian knew Lu’s mother had punished the servants, and now she was coming to chastise him again, which he found tiresome.
But Lu’s mother called him, "Stop right there! Before entering the capital, I met your uncle."
Lu Mian paused slightly, "Uncle?"
Yun Sijin’s father.
"Do you know what your uncle told me?" Lu’s mother looked serious, and for so many years, she had never shown dissatisfaction towards Lu Mian.
Lu Mian sat down in his official attire on Lu’s mother’s right-hand side, asking heavily, "Is uncle well? What did he say?"
"Your uncle said he’s doing well now, and his daughter—your cousin, currently the Prime Minister’s madam—she is also doing well." Lu’s mother’s eyes were stern.
She saw in an instant that Lu Mian’s expression cracked like ice.
"Zi Zhou, how long will you entangle with the past?"
Lu’s mother’s gaze tightened.
Lu Mian’s marriage was supposed to be a great celebration for their family, but he neither informed his parents nor invited relatives to Jiang Du City to witness, not caring about his own lifelong event.
Moreover, she had just seen he had hit his new bride.
That large hole on her head!
Could that be something common between playful couples?
Lu Mian still carried resentment!
Lu Mian was irritable, his voice colder than the water in an ice river, "This child acts with a clear conscience, honest to the royal court, Zhuo Junli is crafty, unfit to be Prime Minister!"
After speaking, he left, filled with cold anger, seemingly heading towards Leng Muling.
Lu’s mother was very worried but did not dare to say much.
The son she raised with care should not be like this now; she finally sighed heavily.𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶
Leng Muling had a quarrel with Lu Mian. Lu Mian did not dare to hit her, so this time he left sulking.
Leng Muling had a headache, unable to sleep at night, so she simply got up and sat on the terrace.
"Huff——"
A cool breeze passed by, and Mo Qi’s upright figure appeared before her.
He carried a pot with freshly warmed medicine, handed it to Leng Muling to drink. Seeing her complexion, he frowned, "Is your head hurting again? Has Lu Mian come to scold you?"
Leng Muling touched her head, "It hurts a bit, but it’s not a big issue."
Leng Muling wasn’t delicate, she took the medicine from him and drank it.
However, the pot had a trace of fragrance, somewhat pungent. As she sneezed, she smelled the strong scent of makeup on Mo Qi.
"Tonight... shouldn’t you avoid coming?" Leng Muling’s eyes flickered, feeling rather awkward.
Mo Qi, married already, it was all his uncle’s troublemaking, insisting he come to protect her, deliver medicine, and she felt perpetually embarrassed with no place to hide.
The scent of makeup on a married man in the middle of the night, she knew perfectly well where it came from.
