The eldest lady sitting opposite Liu Yun, although her face was calm and composed, deep down she felt uneasy like never before. She once suspected that she had an affair with Dongfang Jing and almost killed her child. This matter
She couldn't let go for a long time, and even couldn't sleep well for several days.
The eldest lady has always wanted to ease the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law with Liuyun. She knew that she should apologize to her, but her usual arrogance made her forget how to keep a low profile and show weakness. Just when she was hesitant and didn't know what to do.
At that time, Liuyun sent someone to invite her to Qingfeng Garden.
They said they were asking for food, but in fact they all knew very well that this was just a step for her to step down.
"Are you... feeling better?" The eldest lady actually had a lot to say, but she couldn't say the words. After holding on to her mother-in-law's airs for a long time, she was really hesitant to let her go.
Liuyun raised his eyebrows, seeing the eldest lady's discomfort, lowering his eyes and sighing secretly.
If it were her in her previous life, she would definitely take the opportunity to humiliate her to relieve her hatred. Even if all of this was Su Wan's handiwork, if the eldest lady had not been influenced and swayed by her, so many things would not have happened.
But now that she has washed her hands of herself, she deeply understands the principle of treating others with kindness and kindness, especially since this person is her mother-in-law, Aunt Lan who raised her husband. She understands very well why Dongfang Ye
The reason why everything was pinned on Amelia Su at the last moment is that even though the eldest lady was at fault, she was not a culprit. After all, she was a person who wanted to live together, so why would she make the scene so ugly, right?
"Aunt Lan doesn't have to blame herself. I've already heard about it. Miss Su did it. Aunt Lan was also kept in the dark. I won't take it to heart. Please don't take it to heart."
After all, she finally set the stage for her so that she no longer had to hold on like this. Dongfang Ye was right, one more friend is better than one more enemy.
Her words made the eldest lady's eyes flash, as if she heard something surprising. Ling Lan is also a sensible person and knows the calculations and calculations in Liu Yun's heart. Since she is willing to let this matter pass peacefully,
Of course she wanted it even more.
"It's Aunt Lan's fault for causing you to be wronged." Someone raised their head for her, and the eldest lady's apology came out all at once. She turned to Dongfang Ye, who had been silent all the time, "Ye'er is still wondering.
Aunt Lan?"
Dongfang Ye pursed his lips and remained silent. The atmosphere became slightly awkward. However, Liu Yun reached out and shook Dongfang Ye's big palm and shook his head at him. Dongfang Ye then said, "Let the past matter go."
It was obviously because of Liu Yun's plea that Dongfang Ye finally relaxed. The eldest lady smiled gratefully at Liu Yun, and Liu Yun only lowered his head shyly, with a small arc at the corner of his mouth.
With the good atmosphere at the beginning, the eldest lady felt a lot more relaxed, and chatted with Liuyun. Dongfang Ye sat aside and rarely chatted, but it could be seen that he listened very seriously, especially looking at Liuyun
Her eyes were so tender that she could squeeze water out of her mouth.
Ling Lan tilted her head and noticed Dongfang Ye's expression. Her eyes paused for a moment, and she felt a bit of envy in her heart. Any woman hopes to be favored by her husband. Liuyun is very lucky. What she gets is not just Dongfang Ye's favor.
, but it was all his concentration. Only now did Ling Lan truly believe that maybe there was love between Dongfang Ye and Liu Yun.
"Young madam, the Marquis is here." Mo Li whispered outside the door, waiting for Liu Yun's next instruction.
"Let the kitchen prepare the food." After Liu Yun finished speaking, Mo Li took the order and left.
The eldest lady's eyes lit up, and her radiant appearance seemed to be several years younger in an instant. There was eagerness in her eyes, but she tried her best to stay calm on her face: "Is the Marquis coming over?"
"I invited dad over to have dinner with me. Let's go to the dining room." Liu Yun did not ask for credit. Instead, she used the calmest tone, as if it was just an ordinary dinner. She stood up and took the thick rabbit fur cloak on the side.
Putting it on Dongfang Ye's body, he moved gently and whispered: "It's a bit cold outside, but I asked them to put a charcoal stove in the dining room."
Among noble families like theirs, most couples live their lives respectfully to each other as guests. Such intimate actions and words like theirs really shocked the eldest lady's heart.
They arrived at the dining room first. When the Marquis entered the dining room, he saw that the eldest lady was also there. The smile on his face faded slightly and he walked in with pursed lips.
"Master, let's have a cup of hot tea first. It's very cold outside today." Ling Lan changed her arrogance from the past few days and instead went up to him. He took the thick cloak from the Marquis with his own hands and put the hot tea into the Marquis' hand.
I wonder if seeing the closeness between Liu Yun and Dongfang Ye today made her suddenly realize a lot. Women regard their father as their heaven. The reason why Bai is more favored than her is because she knows how to show weakness at the right time, but she always thinks that she is the best.
Showing her arrogant side, she thought this was the behavior she should have as a daughter of a famous family. Little did she know that for men, sometimes a woman's weakness would make them feel pity, and a woman's tenderness and considerateness would be the best way to retain a man's heart.
Good weapon.
"How are you doing?" The Marquis was originally a little unsure about Dongfang Ye and Liu Yun's attitudes, but since Liu Yun took the initiative to invite him to have dinner today, it means that she is willing to let everything clear up. After all, her family is in peace.
When everything goes well, he doesn't want his family to never have peace.
"It's nothing serious. Don't worry, dad." There was a slight smile on Liu Yun's face, and his unpretentious attitude made the Marquis couldn't help but admire him in his heart. His elegant demeanor really didn't look like a businessman at all, even though
It is not an exaggeration to say that she comes from a famous family.
"What happened before..." The Marquis paused for a moment, as if he was thinking about how to continue. Unexpectedly, the eldest lady took over the conversation, and she half lowered her head as if she had some regret.
He whispered, "It was my fault. I misunderstood Liu Yun and almost harmed the child."
Her self-criticism made the Marquis's eyes suddenly widen. They had been married for many years, but it was rare to hear her say such words once. She had always been aloof and proud, and never showed weakness or submission. I didn't expect that this time she would be among the younger generation.
When these words were spoken in front of him, the way he lowered his head and pursed his lips was actually a bit pitiful, which made the Marquis feel a bit of pity in his heart.
"It's not entirely your fault." Mr. Hou couldn't help but defend Ling Lan and said to Liu Yun, "It's my fault that I pampered Wan'er too much in the past, so she did such a wrong thing."
Liu Yun shook his head and said sincerely: "This matter has passed. I am not seriously injured, and the child is fine. Let's just treat this matter as... a small sideshow."
The joy on the eldest lady's face and the relief on the marquis's eyes made Liu Yun's smile gradually deepen. It was only at this moment that Liu Yun truly understood what Dongfang Ye meant by attacking the heart first.
