Ling Jingshu and Ling Jingyan were talking with Mr. Jiang.

Jiang's pregnancy has passed three months, the morning sickness has passed, and the fetal condition has stabilized. Her belly is slightly swollen, her cheeks are plump, and her complexion is excellent.

At this time, Mrs. Jiang was slowly doing needlework in her hands.

"Sister-in-law, you'd better take care of the baby with peace of mind! There are so many embroiderers in the house, just let them make the baby's clothes." Ling Jingyan couldn't see Jiang's busy work and hard work: "You should stop doing needlework, so as not to hurt your eyes."

Ling Jingshu also smiled and agreed: "Cousin Yan is right. Cousin, please don't worry too much."

Jiang put down the needle and thread in her hand and smiled sweetly: "Before, I was lying down to nurse the fetus, doing nothing all day long, which was boring and stuffy. Now that the fetus is stable, it doesn't take much effort to do trivial things to pass the time. You guys Don't worry, if you feel any discomfort at all, I won't do the stitching. The safety of the child is the most important thing."

Speaking of the child in her belly, Jiang's face was filled with gentle light.

Ling Jingshu looked at Mr. Jiang and couldn't help but think of herself in her previous life.

She was also so happy when she was pregnant. It's a pity that her husband Lu Hong can't always be by her side. When her belly gradually swelled, he left her and went to the capital to catch the exam.

She endured the pain of childbirth alone. When the crumpled child was brought to her eyes, her eyes filled with excitement. Give almost all your love to your children...

But what happened next?

Lu Hong was in love with Princess Changping in the capital, and the Lu family had the idea of ​​​​climbing the dragon and accompanying the phoenix. The sinister and vicious Ling had her child taken away. Time and time again, she was threatened with the child's life!

After being placed under house arrest, she almost never saw her children again. That little face started to become blurry at some point.

After her rebirth, she rarely thought about the child she was destined to miss.

She will never marry Lu Hong again, and that child will never come back to the world.

Ling Jingshu felt inexplicably astringent and desolate in her heart, and suddenly felt that the happiness and joy on Jiang's face was a bit dazzling, so she looked away.

No, it's more than that!

Her illness is probably incurable. She will never marry again in this life, and she will never have children again...

"Young Mistress, the eldest young master is back." A pretty maid came to report with a smile: "The two young cousins ​​of the Lu family are also here with the eldest young master. I heard that the young mistress is happy, so I specially wanted to congratulate the young mistress!"

Jiang was a little surprised and glanced at Ling Jingshu subconsciously.

Brothers Lu Hong and Lu Qian are both here!

Ling Jingyan whispered: "Ah Shu, if you don't want to see them, don't go out. Hide here for a while, and we'll go out after they leave."

It was rare for Ling Jingyan to be so considerate.

Ling Jingshu felt warm in her heart and responded softly: "That's not necessary. Since we are here, it doesn't hurt to meet up with him."

…

Before Lu Hong and Lu Qian came, they really just wanted to wish Mr. Jiang a happy birthday. I never expected that Ling Jingshu was there, which was quite an unexpected surprise.

As usual, Lu Hong glanced at Ling Jingshu implicitly and tenderly: "I haven't seen my cousin Shu in a few days. My cousin Shu seems to be looking very good."

Such tenderness and affection once fascinated her.

Looking at it now, the throbbing joy of the past is no longer there, only apathy and disgust.

Thinking of the little child with a blurry face, Ling Jingshu hated Lu Hong even more, and said in an extremely cold voice: "I have been in poor health recently and have been resting in the boudoir. Why do I look so good? Cousin Lu You must have read it wrong!”

Lu Hong: "..."

Which is more frustrating, apathy or a look of disgust?

The answer is hard to tell! Equally uncomfortable!

Of all the people present, Lu Hong was the only one who didn't know about Ling Jingshu's illness. Everyone else knows it. Now that Lu Hong was in trouble, Ling Xiao and others just felt relieved, and no one helped to smooth things over.

As for Lu Qian, he was hesitating to see Ling Jingshu and had complicated conflicts, so he couldn't care about Lu Hong.

Jiang coughed and broke the silence: "Everyone, please sit down and talk! Don't stand around." He then ordered the maids to serve tea and snacks.

This embarrassing scene was finally over.

After Lu Hong hit the wall, Wu Yan spoke to Ling Jingshu again, and turned to Ling Ji to talk about the matters in the Imperial College.

Ling Xiao was very interested in this topic and listened carefully.

Lu Qian hesitated for a moment, then finally plucked up the courage and shouted: "Cousin Shu..."

Ling Jingshu looked over coldly.

The undisguised indifference and disgust in his eyes was like a basin of cold water, instantly extinguishing the weak fire in Lu Qian's heart, and he suddenly lost the courage to speak.

Lu Qian lowered his head and remained silent.

Ling Jingshu maintained a cold expression on her face, but she was a little surprised in her heart.

Lu Qian just backed down like that?

This is not like his temper.

Lu Qian is stubborn and self-righteous, and cannot listen to what others say. She rejected her several times in her previous life, but he still persisted. Compared to Lu Hong, who is thin-skinned and easy to deal with, Lu Qian is the one who really causes headaches.

Unexpectedly, Lu Qian was so easy to spend today... Before, Lu Qian had not visited her in the name of visiting her for more than two months. And today's strangeness seems unusual.

Did something happen that she didn't know about?

…

This question can only be suppressed in my heart for the time being.

Everyone chatted casually for a while, and the atmosphere gradually became more relaxed.

"By the way, tomorrow is the wedding of King Yan." Ling Ji changed the subject and said enthusiastically: "Every civil and military official in the dynasty will send gifts to express their congratulations. My father has to go to the Ministry of Works official office, so he handed over the gift-giving errand. Give it to me. Ah Hong, are you going to Prince Yan’s Mansion tomorrow?”

Lu Hong responded with a smile: "I didn't plan to go originally. However, my second uncle insisted on taking us two brothers along, saying it would be an eye-opener and it would be good to get to know more people."

...Poor Lu Hong has no idea what Lu Ping's true intentions are.

When King Yan gets married, it is inconvenient for Queen Xu to leave the palace to host it, so Princess Changping will definitely go to Prince Yan's palace. Let Lu Hong show up in front of Princess Changping, so that Princess Changping will not forget about Lu Hong as time goes by.

Ling Jingshu heard something strange and couldn't help but glance at Lu Hong.

In his previous life, Lu Hong came to the capital a few years later and met Princess Changping. I don’t know what kind of twists and turns they went through, but they finally got together.

In this life, Lu Hong came to the capital ahead of schedule. Could it be that the "fate" between him and Princess Changping has also been advanced?

I wonder what role Lu Ping played in it?
