Chapter 131: Affection and Wronged
Meng Laofuren is an elder. So according to the tradition, Lin Chujiu was supposed to be the one who should personally visit her. But
Rumors about Lin Chujiu being seriously ill spread to the capital over and over again. Xiao Tianyao even invited Divine Doctor Mo to treat her illness. And Lin Xiang himself personally come to visit her.
But even though it was the case, Lin Chujiu wanted to go to visit Meng Laofuren herself, but Meng Laofuren didnt agree to it. And even though a lot of people has been saying that Lin Chujiu was only faking her illness. Meng Laofuren didnt pay attention to them.
Meng Laofuren has been wanting to visit Lin Chujiu a bit more earlier. But, Xiao Tianyao has been stopping her, by using Divine Doctor Mos treatment as a shield. He said that its very inconvenient for Lin Chujiu to meet anyone. So, her visit to Lin Chujiu got dragged until now.
Lin Chujius place inside the Jing Tian Courtyard was to the farthest part of the Xiao Wangfu. So, it can be said that it was also very far from the gate. And so, Lin Chujiu who was sitting in the sedan chair urged the servant to hurry. Because she doesnt want Meng Laofuren to wait for long.
While on the road, Lin Chujiu recalled that the original Lin Chujiu and this old lady were very close. But, the original was also afraid of her thats why shes very obedient whenever shes in front of her.
The original Lin Chujius etiquette was also taught by this old lady. She was the only one who was personally trained by this old lady with utmost care. Because this old lady fear that she might forget it and turn back to her normal self.
After determining that there was no problem in their relationship. Lin Chujiu had a peace of mind.-And if by chance Meng Laofuren gets suspicious of her being sensible, shell just use her marriage as an excuse.
But, elders really love to see their granddaughter being sensible. So maybe, she will not only feel very distressed but also hesitate to let her stay in this dangerous place anymore.
Across the door, Lin Chujiu saw an old lady standing by the stairs while holding a mans arm. Lin Chujiu stops her servants and stepped down from the sedan chair, but she havent taken a step or two, when she heard the old ladys stern voice: Chujiu, mind your manners!
Lin Chujiu got shocked when she heard Meng Laofurens voice. And she suddenly understood why the original Lin Chujiu was so afraid of her.
Lin Chujiu busily stands firmly and walk elegantly
Meng Laofuren will be 66 years old this year. She has long black and silver hair. Shes not tall, but her back is now a bit arching. Her face has visible lines and fold. Her eyes looks like a gray cloud, but she doesnt look drowsy like any other elderly.
She has an overbearing aura, elegant demeanor and posture. She looks very charming just like a young lady. She looks very wise, so a person couldnt help but want to get close to her.
Lin Chujiu felt pressured but heart was so excited. She walked slowly, but when she got near her, she bend her knees a bit and said: Grandmother.
Meng Laofuren strict training to Lin Chujiu didnt go to waste. So seeing her well-behave, Meng Laofurens eyes redden and immediately holds Lin Chujius hand, then said: Good, good, good. My Chujiu grew up well just like her mother. Shes not arrogant anymore. Or its more like her deceased daughter comes back to life.
Grandmother Lin Chujiu was originally controlling her emotions. But, when she saw and heard this old ladys words. Her eyes felt sour and she unconsciously want to rely on her.
When she recalled earlier that the original Lin Chijiu and this old lady get along well. She didnt felt anything, so she only calmly analyze her memory and think of a way that may benefit her.
But, when she personally witness and felt this old ladys care. She realized how much shes wanting the warmth of a relative. She simply cannot calculate this old ladys concern.
She had no elder brother or sister in her previous life. Or an elder like Meng Laofuren that talks harsh but full of concerns.
So for the love and care of this old lady, Lin Chujiu cannot afford to be cruel and just use her.
Just go with the flow ah!
Lin Chujius independence really made Meng Laofuren both happy and sad, so she said: My good girl, you must have felt wronged. Grandmother is bad. Grandmother shouldnt have left you alone in the capital. You must have felt very lonely.
Meng Laofuren doesnt seem to refer to Lin Furen and Lin Xiang. Which made Lin Chujiu very puzzled, but she didnt dare to ask, she simply replied with: Grandmother, I didnt felt wronged, Im okay, I just miss you.
This is not the proper place to discuss such things. Meng Laofuren knows her own indiscretion, so she only smiled softly and said: Its good if you didnt felt wronged.
Meng Laofuren, Wangfei, please A servant came forward and lead them to the sedan chair. Meng Laofurens eyes squinted and had guessed that her granddaughter must not be staying in the main house.
Grandmother, please be careful. Lin Chujiu personally helped Meng Laofuren to sit in the sedan chair. And then, she also sat back.
The scenery along the main gate of the Xiao Wangfu up to the very last place got more and more look desolate. So Meng Laofurens face got more and more gloomy. And her eyes were seemingly burning with fire.
Lin Chujiu sighed and regretted that she didnt explain anything in advance. But right now, they were sitting in the sedan chair, so its very inconvenient to speak.
Fortunately, they soon arrived at her place in Jing Tian Courtyard.
When the servant stopped in front of her place, Lin Chujiu busily went forward to help the old lady: Grandmother were here.
A dignified Wangfei lives here? When Meng Laofuren got up, her face becomes more ugly. And due to anger, she didnt wait for Lin Chujius explanation and directly ask: Your father and mother came to see you, but they didnt find out that youre living in this kind of place? Or they just didnt say anything? Is it so good to bully a girl from Meng Family?
This is the first time that Lin Chujiu received so much concern from a loved ones. So although Meng Laofuren is getting angry, she was so grateful to her.
Grandmother, Lin Chujiu suppressed the deep affection she felt and said while smiling: I volunteered to live in this place. Its very quiet here, so its easy to recuperate.
She doesnt want this stern, but very kind old lady to worry. And she doesnt want to use her family ties to her as a bargaining chip. She wants to keep this warmth without any hidden intentions.
Grandmother cannot understand why you volunteered to live in this place. Lin Xiang had married her two daughters but she never saw them lived in a desolate area.
Lin Xiang is not a good father to Lin Chujiu. But, Lin Chujiu didnt lack in any material things or foods. So, Lin Chujiu grew up just fine.
Lin Chujiu blink her eyes a few times to move back her tears. And said with a smile: Grandmother, you got it wrong. I volunteered to live here, but Im not alone. Wangye also lives here. Originally, Lin Chujiu wanted to complain in front of Meng Laofuren and let Guo Gongfu saves her, but now
She just wanted to dispel Meng Laofurens worry. So even if she doesnt want to, she said that Xiao Tianyao recognized her as his wife.
Is what youre saying is true? Xiao Wangye also lives here? Doubt was written all over Meng Laofurens face, so Lin Chujiu vigorously nodded her head and added: Grandmother, if you dont believe me, come with me and see for yourself. Wangye has also been waiting for you. Its just, his legs are not in a good condition, so he didnt come to pick you.
While talking, Lin Chujiu escorted the old lady to go inside.
Lin Chujius face looks so tender. Her face didnt show any trace of hesitation or cautiousness to Xiao Tianyao. So, seeing her optimistic and lively behavior, Meng Laofuren felt relieved
Perhaps, Xiao Wangye really treats Chujiu nicely!
