Chapter 50 The Li Xingzhou Couple Attack
Chapter 50 The Li Xingzhou Couple Attack
The next morning, just as dawn was breaking, Li Tingxue carefully picked up her still-sleeping daughter and headed towards Songhe Courtyard.
When Jiang Mianmian saw Xiao Le'an in Li Tingxue's arms, her face immediately lit up with a smile: "Oh my, why did you bring my little darling here so early?"
Li Tingxue's eyes flickered slightly, and she said softly, "Mother, to be honest, I'm still feeling a bit unwell and really don't have the energy to take care of Le'an."
So, I'll have to trouble my mother to look after her for a few days. I'll bring her back to Le'an once I've recovered."
She paused for a moment, then added, "Oh, by the way, Mother, it would be best if you didn't go out these next few days, lest my condition worsen and I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you again."
After saying that, she put on a pitiful look.
It would be best if you didn't go out for the next few days, for everyone's safety. Otherwise, I might have to stay "sick" for a few more days.
Jiang Mianmian was completely focused on her adorable granddaughter and had no time to think about anything else.
She nodded repeatedly and replied, "Okay! I'll be happy as long as I see my little Le'an."
Although she was still thinking about the "big gossip" between the second son and the female lead, she held back and gave up the idea of "eating gossip" when she saw her well-behaved and cute granddaughter in her arms who needed her care.
"Okay, don't worry! I'll take Le'an and breastfeed her whenever she's hungry. I'll make sure you take good care of her."
Li Tingxue expressed her sincere gratitude, saying, "Then thank you, Mother."
Ever since that day when she was "possessed" in a terrifying ordeal, Li Tingxue made up her mind that she would no longer let the wet nurse feed Le'an, and would feed her herself.
She would only allow a wet nurse to take care of her daughter as a last resort, or if she later found herself unable to produce breast milk. All this was so that her daughter could always be by her side.
Her mother-in-law doted on her daughter and loved her dearly. The thought that she would be able to spend more time with her mother-in-law because of this filled Li Tingxue with a strong sense of security.
Therefore, she specially transferred her capable servant Li Mama and her clever and obedient maid Bai Guo to Le'an's side to take good care of her beloved daughter.
In this way, not only can we better care for Le'an, but we can also learn more about our mother-in-law's daily life through them.
…………
Shen Xiuyan rushed home after court. As soon as he entered, Li Tingxue smiled and told him the good news that her mother-in-law would help her take care of Le'an for the next few days and would not be going out for the time being.
Upon hearing this, Shen Xiuyan finally felt relieved and let out a long sigh of relief. After all, anyone would be afraid in such a situation.
Just as the couple were smiling at each other and talking softly, they heard light footsteps and saw Lily walking in quickly.
She bowed slightly and reported softly, "Young Master and Young Madam, the young master and his wife have come to visit and have arrived at the gate of the Marquis's residence."
Upon hearing Baihe's words, the couple exchanged glances and chuckled in unison. Just yesterday, they had been worrying about how to bring "Ji Wanru" into the Marquis's residence.
Who would have thought that she would actually come to my door today? It's like sending charcoal in snowy weather or offering a pillow when I'm sleepy! Li Tingxue couldn't help but silently give her younger brother Li Xingzhou a thumbs up in her heart.
Li Tingxue turned her head and instructed Shaoyao beside her, "Baihe, go to Songhe Courtyard right away and tell the old lady that Le'an needs to be breastfed."
Upon hearing this, Lily was slightly taken aback at first, but quickly recovered and nodded in response, "Yes, Young Madam." Then she bowed, turned around, and left swiftly.
After Baihe left, Li Tingxue turned to Shen Xiuyan and said softly, "Let's have Mother bring Le'an over first. That way, they'll naturally run into each other. And with Mother there, we'll feel a little more at ease."
Shen Xiuyan smiled and nodded in agreement, then added, "Yes, this is quite a coincidence. But I think it would be best if Mother had some physical contact with that 'Ji Wanru'."
Li Tingxue looked puzzled and asked, "Why?"
"Hey! Tingxue, have you forgotten? When you were 'possessed,' wasn't it your mother who saved you? Both times, it involved such a strange thing as 'possession.' Perhaps only your mother has a solution, who knows?!"
It's important to know that my mother always interpreted these things based on physical contact, and her interpretations were often remarkably accurate and effective.
After listening to these words, Li Tingxue nodded thoughtfully and replied, "Hmm, now that you mention it, it makes a lot of sense! It seems that my mother-in-law is quite capable!"
When Shen Xiuyan saw his wife, her eyes involuntarily filled with light when she mentioned her mother's superpowers.
Shen Xiuyan's lips twitched slightly as he thought to himself that his wife now had an extraordinary level of confidence in his mother's abilities!
If she had to choose now, she would probably choose her mother without hesitation!
However, when it comes to his mother's abilities and inner thoughts, Shen Xiuyan is not so worried at the moment about whether the girl named "Ji Wanru" can hear his mother's inner voice.
He recalled his previous experience of "possession," and how even someone as close to them as Han Lanjiao could not hear his mother's voice.
Based on the various signs observed so far, and the circumstances surrounding the mother's innermost thoughts, it seems that only those who are extremely close to the mother can hear them.
Those who harbor ulterior motives, malicious intentions, and ill intentions simply cannot hear the voice in their mother's heart, which is why he is not too worried about this matter.
Just then, Jiang Mianmian brought Le'an to the Cherry Blossom Courtyard. Along the way, she overheard the servants mentioning that Li Tingxue's younger brother and sister-in-law had come to the Marquis's residence to visit their daughter-in-law.
Suddenly, she was reminded of what she had seen yesterday, which made her heart tighten.
Instantly, an ominous premonition washed over her, because she knew that her daughter-in-law's sister-in-law was not the original. What if that woman went crazy and accidentally hurt her Le'an?
Just thinking about it now made Jiang Mianmian feel uneasy. She muttered to herself that she would pick up Le'an and run away after Le'an finished her milk.
