Chapter 514 - 514 What happened?
514 What happened?
Shi Qingluo didn’t know what Prince Yi was thinking.
Otherwise, she would have complained that he was too thick-skinned for taking up his identity as her father-in-law completely.
“Okay, I’ll go back to Heyang County with my mother and the others tomorrow.”
She also missed her little husband.
She had already pointed out all the areas that needed to be improved.
If he needed her help next time, she would have to collect the mutton for the workshop.
She will teach them how to make canned meat here.
After the two of them finished talking, Mother Xiao and Xiao Baili each brought out two bowls of ice desserts.
Xiao Baili handed a bowl to Shi Qingluo, and her mother naturally handed it to Liang Yulin.
Liang Yulin took it and tasted it.
He smiled and complimented, “I’ve eaten so many ice dessert, but yours is still the best.
Shi Qingluo realized that this big bad wolf really knew how to coax people.
“I think so too. I like the food my mother-in-law cooks,” she said with a smile.
As expected, Mother Xiao smiled. “I love to explore food recipes now.”
If this happened in the past, Mother Xiao would definitely be embarrassed to be praised like this and make all kinds of modest concessions.
However, after spending more time with Shi Qingluo, she had learned to be confident.
She was especially happy to be praised by her daughter-in-law.
She also felt that the ice dessert she made was delicious.
“Mother, I’ll bring you and my little sister back to Heyang County tomorrow. We’ll come back again after a while,” Shi Qingluo said.
Mother Xiao trusted her daughter-in-law a lot, so she didn’t ask why.
She nodded and said, “Alright!”
Liang Yulin was speechless.
This woman was so cruel to have nodded so readily and to leave him all alone.
It seemed that he had to work hard, otherwise, it would be difficult to bring his wife back to the capital.
Because of the difference between men and women and Xiao Hanzheng’s absence, Liang Yulin didn’t live in this courtyard.
He left after eating the ice dessert.
The next day, Mother Xiao got up early to make small steamed dumplings and porridge.
Prince Yi came to the courtyard on time.
He had breakfast with the three of them.
As expected, the breakfast his wife made was more delicious.
After he finished eating, he wiped his mouth with a handkerchief and looked at Shi Qingluo. “When are you guys leaving?”
“We’ll leave after breakfast,” Shi Qingluo replied.
Liang Yulin nodded. “I’ll get someone to escort you back.”
Shi Qingluo did not refuse. “Alright!”
Then, she led Xiao Baili to get her things and asked her mother-in-law to wait here.
It was also to leave some time for the two to say goodbye.
Liang Yulin liked his daughter-in-law more and more.
It was the kind of love an elder had for a younger generation. What a good child.
Liang Yulin took out an inconspicuous whistle and handed it to his mother.
“Take this. If you encounter any danger, blow it.”
Mother Xiao wasn’t stupid.
She naturally knew that this wasn’t for her daughter-in-law to bring her daughter to get her things, but for her to say goodbye to Prince Yi.
She suddenly asked, “Are you serious? ”
Liang Yulin’s eyes brightened. “Of course, I meant what I said before. I mean it.
“I didn’t marry you to repay you. You know who I am. I have many ways to repay you. I don’t need to sacrifice myself.
“I won’t force you. I just hope you can consider me.
“I can guarantee and promise that if you agree to be my princess consort, then I will only have you as my wife. There will be no other woman by my side.” He emphasized with great sincerity.
If he didn’t meet Kong Yuelan, he was prepared to be a bachelor for the rest of his life, so he really could do this.
“I’m the type of person who is never tempted, but once I’m tempted, you’ll be the only person in my life, forever.”
Mother Xiao had never heard such words before.
Not even the best days of her relationship with Xiao Yuanshi.
Mother Xiao pursed her lips and took the whistle from his hand. “Okay, I’ll think about it. I’ll give you an answer the next time I come back.”
It would be a lie to say that she didn’t have a good impression of Liang Yulin.
He had a high status, good looks, and was considerate and attentive.
He knew how to respect her. She had only seen such a man in her elder son so far.
However, she didn’t know if she would spend the rest of her life with him.
So she needed to think about it carefully.
“Alright!” Liang Yulin chuckled.
After the two finished talking, Shi Qingluo and Xiao Baili also came out with a bag each.
Liang Yulin sent them to the carriage and watched it disappear before turning to return to his own courtyard.
He also sent out a group of dragon guards to protect them in secret.
Sitting in the carriage, Shi Qingluo saw her mother-in-law holding a whistle in a daze.
She knew that her mother-in-law still had Prince Yi in her heart.
In fact, with such a man by her side, it was really hard for a woman not to be tempted.
After walking for a while, Mother Xiao suddenly raised her head and looked at Shi Qingluo and Xiao Baili.
“Qingluo, Baili, if I remarry, will you object?”
After these few days of interaction, she could feel that Liang Yulin was serious.
She was also tempted by their interactions.
He took good care of her, and the point was that when they sat together, they always had something to talk about, even the conservation was just about a plate of snacks.
If he were Xiao Yuanshi, they would have nothing in common.
However, although she was tempted, she cared more about her family’s opinion.
If her son, daughter-in-law, and other children agreed, she would consider agreeing to Prince Yi.
If her family objected, she would reject Prince Yi.
After all, her family was the most important to her.
This might not be fair to Prince Yi.
However, she had only known Prince Yi for a short time, but she had been with her family for a long time.
In terms of relationships, the latter must be much deeper.
Shi Qingluo could roughly guess what her mother-in-law was thinking.
“Of course I’m not against it. I’m very much in favor of my mother falling in love for the second time,” she said with a smile.
“Mother, you’re still so young. It’s best to find a companion if you find a suitable one.”
Her mother-in-law was only in her thirties, so it was normal for her to get married again.
Since she was tempted, she felt that she should seize it.
Otherwise, if she left this village, she won’t see him anymore.
Xiao Baili also nodded. “I also support my mother falling in love for the second time.
“I think Prince Yi is pretty good. He’s so much better than my scumbag father.
If her scumbag father knew about this, he would definitely be furious.
She had been secretly observing these days and found that Prince Yi was too good to her mother.
He was considerate, gentle, and careful. Every time, he would take the initiative to find a topic to talk to her mother.
She added, “My big brother and little brother also support it. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have let us come here.”
The siblings could still accept him as their stepfather.
Hearing her daughter directly supported Prince Yi, Mother Xiao’s face couldn’t help but blush. “I understand!”
After that, the three of them talked about this topic for a long time, and Mother Xiao was completely willing to accept this matter.
They rested in a small town in the evening and continued on their journey the next day.
After walking for a while, a man in black suddenly appeared and stopped the carriage.
The guard who was escorting Shi Qingluo wasn’t on guard and didn’t unsheathe his saber.
This meant that he was one of their own.
The guard who was driving the carriage even stopped the carriage.
The man in black walked to the window. “Princess, something has happened up ahead.”
Shi Qingluo opened the window and saw the men in black outside. She guessed that they were the secret guards sent by Prince Yi to protect them.
“What happened?” she asked.
“Our men have found out that the third prince is being pursued, and he’s running in this direction,” the man in black replied honestly.
