Long Yang paused when he saw the unhappy look in the girl’s eyes. He stood up
as well and looked at Ling Lihua. “What are you doing here, Mother-in-law?
Ling Lihua was uncomfortable with him referring to her as ‘Mother-in-law.
She gave a start when he addressed her previously excited and happy mood
was dampened somewhat because of it.
However, she found it difficult to voice this concern as she looked at Long
Yang. “I think. You better just call me Madam.”
She was not used to having such an old son-in-law. Moreover, it made her
sound old.
Lu Liangwei, “..”
Long Yang raised an eyebrow. “Would it not make us feel like strangers if I
called you Madam?
Ling Lihua immediately replied, “Not at all. Why would it make us feel like
strangers? It’s perfectly fine for you to call me Madam”
Long Yang turned to look at Lu Liangwei. “What do you think, Weiwei?”
Lu Liangwei scratched her sideburns with her fingers and said, “It’s just a
formality, after all. Whatever you use isn’t important. Just refer to whatever
you feel comfortable with, Your Majesty.”
Long Yang nodded when he heard this. “Tl follow your lead, Weiwei.”
He paused and looked at Ling Lihua. “Madam, it looks like you have something
to talk about with Weiwei. I won’t disturb you any longer.”
Ling Lihua was quite satisfied with the behavior of this son-in-law who knew
his place. “Alright. If there’s nothing else, Your Majesty can head to Longevity
Hall and have a game of Go with the Dowager Duchess.”
“That sounds fine,” Long Yang replied airily. A smile flashed in Long Yang’s
eyes when he turned to look at Lu Liangwei, then he strode away and left the
pavilion.
Lu Liangwei’s face burned slightly.
Ling Lihua suddenly came close and hugged her around the shoulders. Ling
Lihua followed Lu Liangwei’s gaze and watched toward the direction Long
Yang left. She could not help saying slyly, “Tt looks like His Majesty is pretty
obedient and listens to you.”
Faced with this teasing, Lu Liangwei could only say, “In what situation is he
being obedient to me, Mother?
“You’re right. He could be just putting up pretenses in front of me,” Ling Lihua
said with a grin while ushering Lu Liangwei to sit down on one of the stone
chairs
“His Majesty is not that sort of person,” Lu Liangwei quickly explained.
“He takes very good care of me.”
Tsk, tsk. I’ve just said one thing and you are already in a hurry to defend him.
It’s no wonder everyone says that daughters will side with outsiders,” Ling
Lihua teased again.
Lu Liangwei looked at her with slight frustration. “Mother, why do you keep
teasing me? I don’t want to talk to you any longer.”
At this, Ling Lihua immediately said, “Fine, fine. I was just joking.”
Lu Liangwei finally turned to look at Ling Lihua and saw that the coldness in
her mother’s eyes seemed to have disappeared. “You look like you’re in a good
mood, Mother. Is it because of something Zeng Lunan said to you?
Ling Lihua raised the teapot over the stone table and poured herself a cup of
tea before nodding gently. “Yes”
A delighted look appeared on Lu Liangwei’s face when she heard this. “So, does
this mean that Father never betrayed you all those years ago?”
A smile slowly appeared on Ling Lihua’s lips. “That’s right. Your Father didn’t
betray me.”
That’s wonderful.” Lu Liangwei felt overjoyed from the bottom of her heart.
She had always thought that her parents had lived a difficult life. They had
been forced apart for decades because of Madam Zheng.
Now that the misunderstanding had been cleared up, it was something that
was worth celebrating.
The spark in Ling Lihua’s eyes suddenly dimmed when she saw the happy look
on her daughter’s face.
It reminded her of the night before Lu Hetian had left for battle. He had come
looking for her at the medicinal shop, and the memory of the tears he had shed
on her neck suddenly pained her.
Had she gone overboard for treating him that way before?
This was especially so when considering the words he had said to her that
night. They did not have much time left to waste.
That was right. Their children were all grown up now and they were close to
forty.. How much more time was there for them to waste?
