Chapter 171 Enemies
Chapter 171 Enemies
After putting away the wine jar, Lord Ming stood up and said, "Father will show you your home!"
This feeling is good!
Yue Weiwei followed him and went deeper into the backyard, where a large flower bed came into view.
Waves of floral fragrance wafted into her nose, and Yue Weiwei felt refreshed. She caught a glimpse of that familiar scent again.
"Father, who is taking care of these flowers?"
"The housekeeper takes good care of them. Your mother also loves flowers and often picks them up here."
The fragrance became stronger and stronger. Yue Weiwei was curious and could not help but take two quick steps, circling the flower garden and heading deeper into it.
A field of lilacs! They are in full bloom!
There is also a large bunch of lilac flowers planted in Li Hengtu’s yard!
She stared at the flowers in a trance.
"Minglu, you've been watching for so long, but what do you remember?"
Yue Weiwei seemed to wake up from a dream. She turned around and saw Master Ming, and quickly put on a smile: "Father, the fragrance of many flowers just now mixed together, and the smell seemed to cover up the lilac flowers, but I still caught a trace of it. Lilac flowers are the incense I often use in my room, and there are also some on my clothes."
Lord Ming walked over, his eyes showing joy: "Yes! No matter when, you can distinguish the scent of lilac flowers. Among all the flowers, you only love lilac flowers!"
Yue Weiwei had guessed it earlier.
I just feel strange now!
There are pine trees and lilac flowers in the general's mansion.
There are also pine trees and lilac flowers in Ming Mansion.
What a coincidence!
The sun shines through the veins of the branches and leaves, casting mottled shadows on the ground.
"Father, it should be time for lunch, let's go find Mother!"
She pointed at the high sun and was reluctant to leave the flower garden, but she remembered what Mrs. Ming had asked her to do before going to bed, that they should have lunch together.
At this time, Mrs. Ming was sitting in the hall with an expressionless face.
"Go find Master Ming and Miss!"
She glanced at the several luxurious brocade boxes around her, smiled coldly in her heart, and then looked at the person opposite her, whose face was as cold as ice.
"Mother-in-law! I was very happy to hear that you and father-in-law returned to the imperial capital yesterday. You came to visit your parents early this morning, but I was busy with important matters and was unable to accompany you. I just got away and quickly prepared these gifts to welcome you!"
Ever since Li Hengan entered the house, Madam Ming had never treated him with a good face. He was the son of a noble and aristocratic family, and apart from the Grand Marshal and his wife, no one else was so bold!
But the person in front of him was Minglu's mother. Minglu had encountered some setbacks in recent months, so she endured the resentment.
Li Hengan tried hard to control his expression and tried his best to play the role of patience!
But Mrs. Ming said nothing!
The two of them sat awkwardly in the hall, watching the maids serve the dishes.
At this time, Nanny Li came in with two maids. When she saw Li Hengan, her eyes were full of surprise!
He took a look at Madam Ming's expression, quickly retracted his gaze, and said calmly, "Son-in-law, you're here!"
"Madame Li, thank you for your hard work in accompanying Madam Ming to visit her parents today!"
Mrs. Ming was stunned!
This brat actually tried to please Nanny Li!
"How did you deal with Lin Yuan pushing Ming Lu down?"
Li Hengan had expected this to happen, so he remained calm and said, "Mother-in-law, please forgive me..."
"Snapped!"
Mrs. Ming dropped the teacup in her hand, and a puddle of water flowed down the table.
Seeing that she was not hiding her anger, Li Hengan was furious for a moment. He stared at the teacup and said, "Madam Ming, the glaze of this teacup is smooth and delicate. It must be a top-quality item. Wouldn't it be a pity if it was broken? You don't deserve this for just a Lin Yuan!"
"How can she be worthy of me! If she hadn't pushed Minglu down, I wouldn't have known she existed! She is so audacious and an accomplice to the evil!"
Mrs. Ming looked disdainful.
Li Hengan suppressed the anger in his heart, stood up and put the teacup in the right place: "Madam Ming, when Minglu fell, Lin Yuan happened to be beside her, but no one saw the scene, and Lin Yuan argued that she was innocent..."
"I think you are really unfair, you are just bullying Minglu because she has lost her memory!"
Mrs. Ming interrupted Li Hengan again.
He understood in his heart that as long as Minglu's interests were touched, today would definitely end in a bad mood!
"Mrs. Ming, I came to see you and Lord Ming with good intentions, and I'm here to take Ming Lu back to the Grand Marshal's Mansion. I hope you can understand!"
When he thought about how Minglu had just married into the Taiwei Mansion and he was welcoming the newlyweds into the house, he couldn't help but feel extremely angry.
"you……"
"Ma'am, who made you so angry?"
Lord Ming and Yue Weiwei were walking into the hall.
Yue Weiwei ran to Madam Ming in two or three steps, extremely anxious: "Mother, your health is more important. Seeing you angry, your daughter can't bear it!"
"Xiao Xu said something wrong and made my mother-in-law angry. I have mixed feelings."
When Yue Weiwei heard that Li Hengan was coming, she was extremely depressed. Now the current situation is worse than she imagined!
"Master, how come you are free today? I am going home to visit my parents, do you still want to monitor me?"
Hearing her muttering like that, Li Hengan wanted to walk away!
"Madam Ming, no matter how we get along, the elders have come from afar, and as a junior, I should show my filial piety."
As the two enemies fought back and forth, Lord Ming sighed and said, "Okay, today is supposed to be a good day."
He sat down at the dining table, looked at Madam Ming, then at Yue Weiwei, and said, "We haven't seen each other for a long time. Today we are reunited, so let's not talk about sad things!"
With a calm face, he showed Li Hengan a seat and pointed at the dishes on the table: "These are Minglu's favorites. I wonder if you are used to eating them, son-in-law?"
No one in this family welcomes him!
