Chapter 105 Be My Daughter-in-Law
"Where have you been?"
Mrs. Leng stood up at once.
"Just now, the young master's servant reported that the young master is only five miles away from here. I'm afraid he is almost at the door now."
"This kid, didn't he say he'd be here in two days? How come he's here so early?!"
Mrs. Leng was also a little flustered, and it was obvious that she was overjoyed at the arrival of her son.
Seeing this, Ye Xinran immediately stood up and said goodbye.
She didn't want to disturb the mother and son reunion here.
The carriage was ready there early.
Ye Xinran was just about to get on the carriage when she saw two horses galloping towards the intersection.
The young men on the horses were one black and one white.
They all have tall and straight figures and handsome looks.
With the whip raised high, the horse arrived in an instant like an arrow.
The young man in white is graceful and gentle, while the young man in black is fairy-like and cold and distant.
What two handsome young men!
Ye Xinran only took a glance and then looked away.
She lowered her head and got into the car, not noticing that the young man in black turned his head and looked at her deeply as he passed by.
"Shut up!"
It was not until they reached the gate of Wei's house that the two men pulled the reins and dismounted.
The young man in white laughed and shouted to the young man in black, "Brother Changqing, you lost! I surpassed you at the last moment!"
He proudly showed off his victory, but the young man in black ignored him.
Instead, he stared at the carriage that had just left with a deep look.
"What are you looking at?" The young man in white bumped into him, "I think I saw a girl getting on the bus just now?"
Lu Changqing's face darkened.
Ignoring Wei Jingyi's words, he turned and walked into the yard.
Madam Leng had already come out to greet them. Seeing the young man in black, she quickly took two steps forward and grabbed the young man's hand, "Changqing, you've grown taller again."
"Mom, he was this tall two years ago."
The young man in white followed, complaining a little.
"In the past few years, he was like a bamboo shoot that had been plucked out of its joints. He suddenly grew taller than me."
"You two are both really tall! You must have had a hard time on the road. Come in quickly. I asked someone to prepare some Double Star Tea. Drink some to cool down."
Mrs. Leng smiled happily.
Lu Changqing bowed to Madam Leng and said obediently, "Aunt, I haven't seen you for many years. You look much better."
"right!"
After hearing this, Mrs. Leng couldn't help but reach out and touch her face.
“I also think I look much better now than before.”
"Jingyi, what do you think?"
"mother!"
Wei Jingyi reached out and hugged his mother, "My mother is the prettiest, she will always be a little girl."
"Not a single word of truth!"
Madam Leng tapped his forehead in a reproachful manner, then called to the two people, "Come in, it's hot outside."
The maid brought the calmed watermelon.
The two young men were in high spirits and followed Madam Leng into the house.
Lu Changqing, who was walking behind, looked back before entering the door and saw that the carriage had turned the intersection and disappeared.
The two of them drank tea and talked about what they had seen on the road. Madam Leng looked at the two young men and liked them more and more.
After they drank tea and ate watermelon, he asked, "Changqing, how is your mother these days?"
"Still the same."
Lu Changqing put down the tea bowl and his expression became more serious.
"I have tried many different prescriptions, but there has been no improvement.
Although he has been feeling lazy lately, he has finally stopped coughing up blood, which is a good sign. "
"I wrote to you before, hoping that your mother would come to stay with me for a few days. But she always made excuses, saying that she was not feeling well and was unwilling to come.
It's such a big mansion. Even if she left, the family still needs to eat and rest. Why can't she let herself relax for a while? "
"My sister is now learning to help mother with accounting matters in the mansion. With my sister's help, mother can have an easier time."
Lu Changqing said.
Mrs. Leng snorted after hearing this.
"That girl Changxue has always been willing to listen to your father. Now that she can help your mother with the accounts, I'm afraid she is also following your father's instructions. Could it be that the two of them are thinking about your mother's dowry?"
As soon as Madam Leng finished speaking, Wei Jingyi quickly spoke up, "Mother, what are you talking about!"
Madam Leng looked at Lu Changqing's expression and saw that he was still calm, not embarrassed or angry, so she sighed.
"You and Changxue are obviously twins, but why are you so different?
She is always calculative and competitive, but you always act like you don't care about anything.
It’s okay that you two don’t look alike, but your personalities are also very different.
It's true that one takes after his father and the other takes after his mother.
Fortunately, you are somewhat like your mother, otherwise, I would really feel sorry for your mother."
"Mom, stop talking. You're just meeting and you're already saying these unhappy things. Brother Changqing won't come here again."
Wei Jingyi was complaining about his mother again.
Everyone knows what Mrs. Leng said.
It's just that no one wants to mention it.
Lu Changqing and Lu Changxue are the only children of Lord Lu and his wife, but Lord Lu doesn't seem to like Lu Changqing.
Over the years, he has become more and more spoiled to his daughter, and less and less concerned about his son.
Mrs. Leng saw it all and would complain a few words every time it was brought up.
But it's not good to get involved too much in other people's family affairs.
Lord Lu doesn't like Lu Changqing very much, but he is very good to his wife.
Although Changqing's mother was somewhat unhappy, they had been married for many years after all. Sometimes when she saw the Marquis was unhappy, she would blame Changqing.
Over time, Lu Changqing's temperament became much colder.
Only in front of Madam Leng and Jingyi can he reveal his true nature.
Hearing her son's complaint, Mrs. Leng stopped talking about this topic and said, "Now is the season when hazelnuts are ripe, and some mountain pears and wild fruits are also ripe. You young people are diligent, so when you go back to the mountains to play, help me pick some back."
"Mom, we're going into the mountains to hunt. Who wants to help you pick wild fruits? Let dad do it."
Wei Jingyi refused.
Madam Leng was dissatisfied, "Your father is busy with the affairs of the academy every day. Besides, I am already this old, so what's wrong with enjoying some of the blessings of being a son!"
Wei Jingyi was helpless, "Okay, then I'll go to the mountain with my cousin to pick some for you some other day. If you can climb, we'll take you with us."
"I can't go. Miss Ye said that my body can't be overworked right now. I need to take good care of myself."
Mrs. Leng refused.
"Miss Ye? Mother, which young lady have you made friends with?"
Wei Jingyi asked.
"What young lady? That's the doctor who treated me!" Mrs. Leng was very proud.
"Female doctor?"
"Yes!"
Madam Leng looked at her son and said, "You are not looking down on female doctors, are you?
I tell you, Miss Ye is not only a skilled doctor, kind-hearted, but also beautiful and very business-minded. It's just a pity!"
"What a pity?" Wei Jingyi asked.
"It's a pity that she's already married! Otherwise, I really want her to be my daughter-in-law!"
