After being reborn, he was doted on by his scumbag brother.

Maybe it’s because I haven’t had much contact with outsiders and haven’t seen the dangers of human nature.

Once upon a time, she was as ignorant of the world as her cousin.

But after all the experiences in her previous life, she may never be able to do what she did before except in front of those close to her.

Lin Qingyao nodded happily, "Thank you Xuan'er, can I call you this?"

Li Yaxuan's lips curled up slightly, and she said cautiously: "Of course. Can my cousin come and talk to me often in the future? I can only face the flowers and plants in the yard every day, as well as the chess, calligraphy and painting in the house. Really? It’s boring.”

Lin Qingyao smiled slightly and said: "Okay, I promise you, I will come to accompany you often in the future. Not only that, I have just tried to persuade my aunt to let you out for some air."

Li Yaxuan said excitedly when she heard this: "Really, cousin? What did mother say?"

Lin Qingyao saw Li Yaxuan's eyes shining with anticipation when she heard that she had the opportunity to go out, and she regretted telling her so early, after all, her aunt had not agreed yet.

"Auntie was still a little worried about you and didn't agree immediately."

Li Yaxuan's eyes dimmed a little when she heard this, and Lin Qingyao hurriedly comforted her: "Xuan'er, don't be so impatient to lose. Although my aunt hasn't agreed yet, she has already said that she will consider my suggestion. If you wait patiently, I will continue to persuade you." of."

Li Yaxuan saw that Lin Qingyao was a little uncomfortable and chuckled: "Cousin, please don't blame yourself for this. I'm very grateful that you can help persuade my mother. It's been so many years, and my mother can't be persuaded easily. The eldest brother and the second brother also tried several times, but all failed."

Lin Qingyao sighed after hearing this, "Yes, my aunt is still worried after all. She is afraid that something will happen to you if you are not careful. Which mother is not like this? Don't blame her."

Li Yaxuan nodded, "I understand, it's not easy for my mother. However, since she has agreed to consider it, there is still hope, and I am somewhat hopeful."

Lin Qingyao smiled when he heard this, "Yes, when my aunt agrees to let you go out, I will take you out to see the world and make up for all the things you haven't seen in so many years."

Li Yaxuan smiled brightly when she heard this, "Just thinking about it makes me look forward to it. Cousin, you are so kind."

Lin Qingyao blamed herself a little: "If I had played with you when I was a child, you wouldn't be so depressed. Maybe your body would recover faster."

Li Yaxuan chuckled when she heard this, "Don't say that, cousin, I was quite happy at that time. You may not know that my second cousin would come over to play with me every time he came."

Lin Qingyao was a little surprised when she heard this. The second cousin Li Yaxuan mentioned was her fourth brother Lin Yingyan.

Unexpectedly, the two of them played together when they were young, and the fourth brother never mentioned it.

Li Yaxuan saw Lin Qingyao's surprise and explained: "Second cousin was very playful and active when he was a child. One time he accidentally ran into my yard while playing hide and seek with his servants. I finally saw a playmate and then I begged him to come and play with me often. My second cousin probably felt sorry for me, so he agreed. Those were the few happy times I had when I was young."

When talking about this incident, a rare smile appeared on Li Yaxuan's face, and Lin Qingyao could see that that time must have been very important in her heart.

"It turns out there is such a story. It seems that the fourth brother is doing better than me and is much more sensible than me."

Li Yaxuan chuckled and said: "Cousin, don't say that, but I am really grateful to my second cousin. Although we have grown up later, he rarely comes, but whenever he comes to the Hou Mansion, he will bring gifts to see me. , I am already very satisfied.”

When Li Yaxuan mentioned Lin Yingyan, her face was filled with a happy smile.

Somehow, Lin Qingyao felt from Li Yaxuan's words and expressions that she seemed to have some different feelings for her fourth brother.

But this was just Lin Qingyao's feeling. Maybe she was overthinking.

Besides, she and Li Yaxuan had only just gotten to know each other, so it was hard to ask directly about this kind of thing.

Lin Qingyao smiled and said: "I will bring gifts to see you more often in the future. I guarantee that I will come more often than my fourth brother. I just hope that Xuan'er won't find me annoying then."

Li Yaxuan also smiled when she heard this, "How could it be? It's too late for me to be happy that my cousin is here. However, gifts are not necessary. I don't lack anything. Cousin, you can just come."

Lin Qingyao smiled back, "Okay, I understand."

Lin Qingyao talked to Li Yaxuan for a long time and promised her to come back in a few days before Li Yaxuan was willing to let her go.

Lin Qingyao went to see Li Yaxuan here, and then went to the palace the next day.

During this period of time, Lin Qingyao did not see Xiao Qingning because of the trivial matters.

After finally getting it, Lin Qingyao hurried away, otherwise Xiao Qingning would blame her again.

Lin Qingyao still knew Xiao Qingning very well. Even though she had made time to come over as soon as possible, Xiao Qingning was still unhappy.

Xiao Qingning pouted and pretended to be angry: "Yao'er, you really don't know how long it has been since you came to see me. Am I so unimportant in your heart?"

Lin Qingyao was amused by her appearance, and hurriedly coaxed: "Oh, my good princess, of course you are important. There are a lot of things at home these days, and I have never been idle. Why don't you come here as soon as I have free time? Don't be angry."

Xiao Qingning calmed down immediately when she heard Lin Qingyao coaxing her, and chuckled: "Okay, then tell me what you have been busy with recently."

When Lin Qingyao heard what she said, she knew she had coaxed her and told Xiao Qingning one by one what had happened recently.

"I've also heard about my cousin. She finally got what she wanted. It's such a happy event."

Lin Qingyao chuckled upon hearing this, "Yes, our Marquis Mansion is also very happy. My mother and eldest aunt have been busy preparing for the wedding recently."

Xiao Qingning said with a smile: "Your Zhongyong Hou Mansion has been experiencing a lot of happy events recently. I just don't know if Fang Yueru can still laugh after knowing that your third uncle has an extramarital affair. I really didn't expect that your third uncle actually has How dare you do such a thing.”

Lin Qingyao smiled slightly when he heard this, "Don't worry, we are already on the way, and you will see Fang Yueru's reaction soon."

Xiao Qingning said with a smile: "Then I'll wait, there's nothing new recently, it's very boring. Yao'er, you have some free time these days anyway, why don't I hold a banquet, invite some ladies from aristocratic families, and let's have a drink together How about a chat over tea?”

Lin Qingyao nodded when he heard this, "Okay, anyway, we sisters can't help much with my second brother's wedding. It's good for everyone to have a good time together, and it can also relieve your boredom."

Xiao Qingning said happily: "Okay, then it's settled. However, can we not bring Lin Qingrou with us this time? I really don't want her to ruin our good mood."
