The eldest daughter is not easy to bully

Chapter 7 Do You Still Like Her
"Come, sit next to Daddy." Ling Chengtian fawned and pulled the chair beside him.

Ling Qing looked at Ling Chengtian still loving her like before, couldn't help being happy, but deliberately sat down with his face pulled: "Old man, do you still like Jiang Qing?"

Ling Chengtian suddenly coughed due to the sudden emotional problem, Ling Qing hurriedly patted him on the back.

Slowed down, he tried to change the subject: "Call Daddy"

"Answer my question." Ling Qing interrupted wittily.

Ling Chengtian smiled awkwardly: "They're all elderly people, why don't they like it or not?"

"That's not like it."

Ling Chengtian pursed his lips, speechless.

"Before I came back to Ducheng, I already told my mother that if Jiang Qing is guilty, I will enforce the law impartially." Ling Qing looked at Ling Chengtian with deep eyes: "Old man, do you have any suggestions?"

Ling Chengtian didn't expect his daughter to see the crux of the problem at a glance.My heart became worried again: "Qing'er, Daddy only wants you to be safe and happy."

"Daddy, you only think about your hopes, so have you ever thought about what my brother and I are hoping for for a quarter of an hour?"

Inside the house, there was a moment of silence.

After a long time, the sound of Jin Hua's footsteps broke the silence.

"Master, girl, the step-wife is here."

Ling Qing glanced at Ling Chengtian, and the crisp oriole voice of his step-wife Jiang Qing rang out: "Qing'er."

I saw her walking in lotus steps, swinging a big red lotus coat embroidered with peonies.

As soon as I entered the room, I pulled Ling Qing, looked up, down, left, and right several times, and the crow's feet laughed several times: "I grew up, and I became thinner. Fortunately, the beauty's outline has not changed, and she is still so cute, master, you Say it?"

Ling Chengtian closed his eyes halfway, as if he hadn't seen Jiang Qing coming, and kept silent without responding.

Ling Qing also understood.

Responded: "Step-madam, is there anything else to do at such a late hour?"

"It's just that I haven't seen you for many years. As soon as I heard you came back, I couldn't wait to come." Jiang Qing smiled awkwardly: "I just didn't expect that it would hinder you from talking to the master."

"What's the matter, just tell me directly." Ling Qing gestured for Xu An to take the chair, and Jiang Qing half sat down with a resentful expression.

Ling Chengtian didn't object, nor did he agree, anyway, he would accept whatever Ling Qing arranged.

All of a sudden, the atmosphere in the room became tense.

Ling Qing was not in a hurry, took the hot milk from Jinhua, drank two big gulps, and his body gradually eased from the coolness.

"Qing'er, for the past five years, Han'er and I have always thought of you." Jiang Qing finally hesitated for a while, and said with tears in her eyes, "Fortunately, you are living well in Meilin Village. Don't blame your sister for holding you He went to Meilin Village to ask for someone with the same name, Zheng Yuan brought those people to make a fuss, there was really no other way, so Han'er made such a bad plan."

Ling Qing forgot to ask Jin Hua about it.

Logically speaking, if my brother was killed, he wouldn't be dealing with Elder Zheng in the mansion as Ling Han said.And the nanny didn't mention anything, which means there was no such thing at all.

Ling Qing tilted his head, and asked with a puzzled expression: "So, the second girl wants to kowtow to apologize to me?!"

Jiang Qing, who was choking on these words, didn't know how to continue the prepared words.

Jiang Qing twitched the corners of her mouth imperceptibly, and suddenly became coquettish: "What the second girl, Han'er is your sister. She must have made a mistake, and now I am locked up in the room to reflect on it."

"Qing'er, it's your fault too! You're still in Meilin Village, but you haven't sent a single letter to report your safety. The master and I are so anxious, and Ze'er goes out to look for you every month and month. You! No beating, no scolding, it really pissed me off."

Isn't it dead yet!
Ling Qing took a sip of milk leisurely, smiled and said nothing.

Jiang Qing looked at her pretending to be confused, feeling a little uneasy, and smiled awkwardly: "By the way, I have already mentioned the mistake made by the city guard who notified yesterday, and I will wait for him to investigate. Now that I understand, I will naturally punish that defender and clear your name."

Gu Yuan's name is Gu Fengxi. His duty is to guard the safety of Ducheng and Shangcheng. He is in charge of the soldiers guarding the city.

When it comes to the Ling Mansion, even if a subordinate makes a mistake, Elder Gu will deal with it immediately.In addition, Gu Fengxi is still her father's brother in need, no one in the two cities does not know.

There's no need for Jiang Qing to sell this favor in front of her, really treat her as a three-year-old child with no memory!

"So, is the second girl going to the city wall with this girl and admitting that she has been pretending to be the eldest girl?"

Jiang Qing's awkward smile froze.

In the past, as long as she said anything, Ling Qing would only try to please her.

Why did that clumsy mouth suddenly become sharp?

It's normal for people to change after not seeing each other for a few years, but it doesn't change beyond recognition all at once.

Could it be that Han'er's disturbance in Meilin Village really angered her?
"Qing'er, don't listen to those rumors." Jiang Qing glanced at Ling Chengtian who was still silent: "You can ask the master how this incident got out. No mother wants the two sisters A misunderstanding hurts feelings."

emotion?

Ling Qing thought of Ling Han in Meilin Village, who arrogantly denied that she was a big girl, as if he wanted to swallow her alive, so there was no emotion at all.

What do you mean now, do you want to make peace with her?
Ling Qing also wondered whether Jiang Qing had become like the legendary vicious stepmother in the past five years, and she was just a cabbage in her eyes.

Unexpectedly, it really became like this.

With Ling Chengtian present at this time, if Jiang Qing was not present, would Jiang Qing's prototype be exposed?
Ling Qing really looked forward to it.

"Cough cough." Ling Chengtian coughed suddenly, Jin Hua hurriedly sent him a cup of tea, Ling Qing took it and fed him personally.

Ling Chengtian's face was full of enjoyment, Jiang Qing saw that Jiang Qing retracted the hand that was frozen in midair resentfully.

"Just tell me if you have anything to say." Ling Chengtian breathed a sigh of relief, and finally couldn't help but speak.

Jiang Qing, who was suddenly questioned, sat upright, she no longer worried about who was there, anyway, she seized the opportunity to ask.And the purpose of rushing here tonight is also because of this matter.

She said cautiously: "It's just that Han'er has been crying to my concubine for the past few days. She said that Prince Xiao came to Ling's mansion a few days ago. I hope the master can give him some suggestions."

Ling Qing wondered if she was there, Jiang Qing seemed to deliberately not mention what the suggestion was.

She obediently closed her lips, and while following Ling Chengtian's back, she pricked up her ears to listen.

"My lord has made it very clear that only Shizi Xiao can decide this matter, and my lord will not propose it." Even if Ling Chengtian talked to Jiang Qing, he didn't even look at her: "Also, a girl wants to suggest Xiao Shizi? You tell the master, who would want such an unreserved woman?"

Jiang Qing was questioned and raised her hand to cover her lips, but her eyes turned red after half a breath.

In this way, Ling Chengtian still didn't get the slightest bit of sympathy, and he continued to be warned: "If you still want me to make arrangements for Han'er and Zhaoer's future, you can teach them to me that you have to do your duty, don't mess around. The sky is fantastic!"

Jiang Qing sniffed, wiped the corners of her eyes, and replied weakly: "I know."

"Aren't you going to be busy with the flower viewing feast? Go back and rest earlier!"

"Yes." After Jiang Qing responded in a low voice, she left with a group of servants softly and weakly.

Ling Qing looked at the back of her and her servants leaving with deep eyes.

The Ling Mansion advocates frugality, but the ostentation is as big as before. Is this the bottom line of frugality?
