Reborn to be married, the mistress of the Marquis's Mansion is so sweet
Chapter 44 New Year’s greetings
Lin Fu felt sad as she watched the man leave without any reluctance.
I couldn't help but lie down on the couch and burst into tears.
Shen Qinghe didn't stop for a moment when he heard the crying in the house. He had been expecting Lin Fu as his wife from the beginning to being disappointed now. He didn't even want to spend a moment more with her.
At first, when Lin Fu married, the dowry she brought improved the Shen family's life. He saw every time she was dissatisfied and resisted.
He knew that his mother was partial to him, and hoped that Lin Fu would be able to win the fight and take complete control of the Shen family.
But what Lin Fu did disappointed him greatly. Apart from making noise, she didn't have any real ability. He couldn't help but despise her in his heart.
But he never thought of helping himself. What he wanted was for Lin Fu to be his knife, to resist and contradict his mother, to fight for interests, or to find more help for him. This was the good wife he wanted!
Lin Fu had never understood Shen Qinghe. She only knew that Lin Wan married him in her previous life and lived a good life. However, she didn't know that Shen Qinghe was an extremely selfish, cold and hypocritical person at heart.
He used a mask of humility and gentleness to cover up his cold and ruthless heart. If the person next to him was useful, he would be willing to take a closer look, but if she was useless, he would ignore her or even kick her away.
In Shen Qinghe's heart, he doesn't care about anyone except himself.
Because Shen Qinghe did not return all night, Lin Fu was so angry that she did not sleep all night. The next morning, regardless of the custom of not going out on New Year's Day, she took people directly back to the Lin family.
Lin Wan knew nothing about the Shen family's affairs. She spent the third year of the new year in the Marquis' Mansion in a lively manner.
These days, there has been an endless stream of people coming to visit her to wish her a happy new year and giving her gifts, and she has been very busy.
On the fourth day of the New Year, when she was supposed to go back to her parents' home, Lin Wan was thinking of finding an excuse that she was too busy at the Marquis' Mansion to go back, but Lu Tingxu showed up early in the morning, dressed and waiting for her.
"Why are you here?" Lin Wan looked at the person in front of her in a daze.
"Isn't today the fourth day of the Lunar New Year? Aren't you going back to your parents' home? I'll go back with you!"
"...Thank you for your thoughtfulness!" Lin Wan was speechless.
Seeing her strange expression, Lu Tingxu touched his nose awkwardly and said, "I promised to give you the respect you deserve. Don't think too much!"
“……”Thank you, no!
Lin Wan suppressed her inner complaints and said with a smile, "Thank you for your hard work, my prince!"
Lu Tingxu straightened his chest and said, "It's my duty. You've worked hard, too."
After saying that, he calmly walked to the table and sat down, waiting for Lin Wan to wash up.
During this period of time, Lu Tingxu could not find fault with Lin Wan's words and deeds. Not only did she handle the affairs of the mansion very well, but even the relationship between him and the Xiao family was reconciled.
Especially during the end of the year, Xiao was recuperating and he was not at home. Marquis Lu was busy with military affairs all day, and everything in the marquis' mansion was taken care of by Lin Wan.
After what Lin Wan said in his room last time, Lu Tingxu began to admire her. Although it was not a romantic relationship, he had to admit that he was very satisfied to have Lin Wan as his wife and mistress.
So thinking that today was the day when married daughters returned to their parents' home, he made preparations early.
Lin Wan returned to the inner room, and Qinglian helped her to dress up. When she was done, she looked bright when she came out.
Today she was wearing a red fox fur cloak given by Xiao, with a white fox fur scarf around her neck, and holding the eight-treasure pumpkin hand warmer in her hand as usual. Her little face was wrapped in the fur of the scarf, making her look petite and cute, with a ruddy complexion, and she looked like the mistress of a wealthy family.
The maid took the prepared New Year gifts, and the group went out in a grand manner in a carriage.
At this time, some people from the Lin family had already arrived and were gathered in Wang's yard.
"Fuer, you've been back for four days. When will Qinghe come?" Wang asked Lin Fu in a low voice.
Lin Fu leaned against the cushions of the couch and said with dissatisfaction on her face: "Why mention him?"
Since she came back from the first day of the new year, there has been no news from Shen Qinghe, let alone coming to see her. Lin Fu was getting more and more angry.
"Humph! All men are bad!"
Wang looked at her helplessly and sighed deeply, but she didn't know how to persuade her. It was obviously she who insisted on marrying, so why was she so dissatisfied less than a year after marriage?
At this time, the voice of a maid came from outside: "Happy New Year, Second Miss and Second Uncle. Madam is waiting for you."
Hearing the sound of Lin Wan and Lu Tingxu coming back together, Lin Fu and Wang turned to look at the door.
The next second, the thick cotton curtain on the door was lifted by the maid at the door, and Lin Wan and Lu Tingxu came in with their maids.
Lin Wan's red fox fur coat and white fox scarf were obviously not ordinary items, and beside her was Lu Tingxu, who was also dressed gorgeously, with a brocade hat and a mink coat that was beyond description. The two of them standing together looked like a perfect match.
This scene hurt Lin Fu's eyes again.
Lin Fu looked at Lu Tingxu and Lin Wan coming back together again, and her heart was full of disbelief.
She stared at Lu Tingxu intently, and couldn't help but wonder if this man was the one she hated to the core in her previous life. How come everything seemed different just by marrying a different person?
"Wan'er and the prince are back!" Wang said with a warm smile.
Although she still preferred Lin Fu in her heart, there was nothing she could do. Lin Wan's life was getting better and better, just like what Lin Heng said. He was related to the Yongning Marquis's Mansion, and his sister became the mistress of the mansion. He was respected more by people outside.
Wang had no choice but to be more favorable to Lin Wan, especially when facing Lu Tingxu, she did not dare to show even a little bit of unhappiness.
"Happy New Year to my mother-in-law!" Lu Tingxu said politely. Ming Mo, who was behind him, promptly delivered the New Year gifts he brought to Wang.
The finest silks, a box of gold and jade jewelry, two jars of fine wine from the womb, and several exotic carpets and ornaments brought back by the caravan from neighboring countries.
Wang looked at the pile of big and small things in front of her, and the smile on her face became more sincere. "It's good that you're back. Why are you being so polite?"
Lu Tingxu smiled and nodded without saying anything more. Seeing that the room was full of women, and Lin Fu was staring at him, he could not help but frown.
"I'm going to look for my father-in-law and brother Heng first, and I'll come back to pick up Wan'er later."
After saying that, he nodded at Lin Wan and went out.
After he left, Wang turned around and smiled and asked Lin Wan to sit down. Lin Wan raised her eyebrows at her mother's change of attitude and said nothing. She sat down quietly on a chair beside her.
"Wan'er, you and the prince are getting along well, right? Your father and I are very happy that you can come back together!" Wang said to Lin Wan with a smile.
Lin Wan nodded, glanced at Lin Fu who was sitting next to her and said with a smile: "Today is the fourth day of the New Year and we have to go back to our parents' home. Of course we have to come back. I didn't expect my sister to come back so early. I am already late."
Wang looked at Lin Fu, sighed, and didn't respond.
"What's wrong with mother?"
"Alas...your sister is back on the first day of the new year."
"Ah? Did something happen? Didn't my brother-in-law come back with me?"
Hearing this, Lin Fu felt that Lin Wan was mocking her and immediately exploded. "What does it have to do with you?"
“……”It’s okay, just watching the fun.
