"Just what?" Lin Zhaoyan raised his heart.

Mrs. Liu laughed, took her hand, and said a little sadly: "But your mother asked you to set off for a trip back to Beijing today, saying that the empress dowager issued an order, and invited you ladies to the palace to celebrate this New Year's Eve."

It will take more than half a month to travel from Yanling to Shengjing. If you want to go back to celebrate the New Year, you have to set off quickly.

Lin Zhaoyan was originally planning to mention the matter of going back to Mrs. Liu. Hearing this, he was not very surprised and nodded slightly, "I understand."

"Do you want to go back?" Lin Ruoyan, who had been silent all the time, suddenly stared at her and spoke.

Lin Zhaoyan knew what she was thinking. In Lin Ruoyan's heart, she wanted to stay in Yanling for the rest of her life and not go back. In fact, she was the same. Not to mention that the people in Jian'an Hou Mansion were complicated, she was unwilling to contact those people. Even that secret made her wish to hide in Yanling forever.

But what problems can avoid solve?

If you can hide for a while, can you hide for a lifetime?

Only by taking the initiative can you stand invincible.

So she smiled at Lin Ruoyan, "I always have to go back. I will go back early or late. We all have to go back. Even if my mother doesn't come here, we will leave after a while."

Lin Ruoyan simply wants to stay for the New Year, but after the New Year, he still has to go back.

What's the point of staying for more than half a month? It's just a worry.

Lin Ruoyan lowered his eyes, looking unwilling and lonely.

Lin Zhaoyan sighed and shook her head, then walked over and gently held her hand.

Lin Ruoyan looked up at her.

Lin Zhaoyan gently spit out three words.

Lin Ruoyan was stunned.

Lin Zhaoyan curled his lips and chuckled.

She was talking about Lu Yanzhi.

I still remember that when they left Shengjing, Lin Ruoyan was reluctant to let go of Lu Yanzhi. If they stayed in Yanling and didn’t go back, how could they see him?

Lin Ruoyan's expression improved slightly.

Seeing this, Mrs. Liu also smiled and said, "It's not that I can't come. Wait until the spring next year. Grandma will send someone to pick you up."

Lin Ruoyan was completely relieved and pursed his lips and smiled at Mrs. Liu, "Then let's just say one thing!"

"Yeah, one word is certain." Mrs. Liu also nodded with a smile, but the loneliness in her eyes was so clear that it cannot be ignored.

In her heart, she was also reluctant to part with these two granddaughters.

Lin Ruoyan quickly left the house, and his expression was much easier than before.

Lin Zhaoyan was not in a hurry to leave, and she had important things to tell Mrs. Liu.

Unexpectedly, before she could speak, Mrs. Liu said first: "Zhaoer, come to the inner room, grandmother has something to say to you."

Lin Zhaoyan was stunned when he saw Mrs. Liu's serious expression. Then he nodded and followed her quietly into the inner room.

Mrs. Liu sat down on a soft couch in the inner room, patted the empty seat next to her, and said, "Zhaoer. Sitting here."

Lin Zhaoyan sat down as he said.

Mrs. Liu took her hand and sighed heavily, "Zhaoer, do you still think of your cousin Wenxuan?"

Lin Zhaoyan trembled and looked up at Mrs. Liu.

She didn't expect she would ask this question.

Mrs. Liu held her hand tighter, as if comforting, "Grandma knows that you still think of him, otherwise you wouldn't be as close to the second son of the Li family. He gives people a lot of feeling like Brother Xuan, right?"

It turned out that my grandmother also saw it. Is this the reason why she is so vigorously matching her and Li Wenqing?

Lin Zhaoyan's nose was a little sour. Then he nodded, "Yes, Zhao'er often thinks of cousin Wenxuan."

Mrs. Liu smiled and touched her face, "You are a child who values ​​love and friendship. Brother Xuan should be relieved if you have a spirit in the sky. In fact, my grandmother knows that Brother Xuan's death is not your fault. You don't have to blame yourself or put pressure on yourself. It feels like you owe something to Brother Xuan. You don't, don't you know?"

An indescribable feeling rose in Lin Zhaoyan's heart, as if a tiny needle fell into the heart lake, causing a rippling slight.

Grandma said that Wenxuan's cousin's death is not blamed.

In fact, she has always told herself this, but the guilt in her heart inevitably makes her feel that she is deceiving herself.

Now that my grandmother told her this, she felt much better.

Mrs. Liu said again: "So, you don't have to feel guilty, and you don't have to be blinded by this guilt to choose someone you don't like. You must obey your true heart."

"Grandmother..." Lin Zhaoyan glanced at her in panic and uneasy.

Did my grandmother already know about her and Xiao Qi?

Mrs. Liu did not notice Lin Zhaoyan's uneasy expression and continued to sigh: "Zhaoer, you must understand that being an elder is just to worry about your children in the future because you hope that your children will be safe and happy in the future. Although you are not my granddaughter, in the mind of my grandmother, you and Brother Xin are no different from the grandmother's grandmother's parents. My grandmother is worried about your marriage, not to plot against yourself, nor to get anything from you, do you understand?"

Lin Zhaoyan looked at Mrs. Liu in a daze.

She had understood something before, but now she doesn't understand it.

After hearing what my grandmother said later, she probably didn’t know what happened to her and Xiao Qi, so why did she suddenly express this feeling?

Did my grandmother misunderstand something?

"Grandma..." Lin Zhaoyan was about to ask the matter clearly, but Mrs. Liu shook her head first and said regretfully: "You and Mrs. Li can only say that they are destined to be together. No matter how much he looks like Brother Xuan, he is not Brother Xuan. You don't have to obey his grandmother's intentions to show filial piety. Forget it, forget it, let alone, fate is destined to be forced."

Lin Zhaoyan finally understood what Mrs. Liu meant.

Feelings are related to Li Wenqing.

Is my grandmother planning to get Li Wenqing out?

"Did Mrs. Li say something to you?"

It must be Mrs. Li. Apart from her, she really doesn't want to have a second person who can make her grandmother so abnormal. From her previous active planning to her current sadness, she even relieved her so much to prevent her from blaming herself.

There must be something weird inside.

Sure enough, Mrs. Liu nodded, "Originally, my grandmother knew that you were about to return to Shengjing, so she wanted to settle the marriage between you and Mrs. Li as soon as possible. But when I visited and made this request, Mrs. Li said that you were ruthless and thought that you would fall in love with me. She said that she didn't want her son to marry a wife who was thinking of the man next to her. I was surprised and asked carefully. Only after I asked carefully did I realize that Mrs. Li said that you often looked at him as if you were looking at others. You also said that you had mentioned Brother Xuan in front of Mr. Li, and even said that Mrs. Li was very similar to Brother Xuan, and more than once said that Mrs. Li had good intentions and did not want to let him down. So Mrs. Li felt that you did not sincerely and refused to let him down."

Lin Zhaoyan could not speak for a long time.

What does it mean to talk lies with your eyes open?

Indeed, she did say all these words in front of Li Wenqing.

But who first imitated Wenxuan's cousin Wenxuan's speaking temperament, and who took the initiative to mention his grandmother in front of her repeatedly?

It turns out that this is a condom at the beginning!

If she hadn't had that dream, she might have regarded Li Wenqing and Mrs. Li as close relatives and friends. If this happens again, she will feel even more guilty towards them.

Then, she will have better control, right?

Lin Zhaoyan curled up the corners of his lips and a cool smile appeared.

"Zhao'er. Don't be sad or blame Mrs. Li." Seeing her serious expression, Mrs. Liu couldn't help but relieve her.

It is to enlightenment rather than comfort.

Because in the mind of Mrs. Liu, she also thinks that Mrs. Li and Li Wenqing are innocent!

Maybe she felt guilty too. After a lot of trouble, she had someone else who her granddaughter liked. It seemed that they were slapped in the face on the spot!

Lin Zhaoyan's eyes became even darker.

If Mr. Feng Qing’s affairs were also related to Mrs. Li, then Mrs. Li would be a little scary.

What she wanted to do was even more terrifying than she thought.

Her heart tightened, and the unknown fear made her feel cold all over. She had a vague premonition that something was going to happen, but she didn't know what was going on.

By the way, Xiao Qi!

She forgot that Xiao Qi was still there.

Hasn’t Xiao Qi always been omnipotent? He can find out all kinds of things, even more than ten years ago, the secret that is hidden.

Last time he warned her not to contact Mrs. Li and Li Wenqing, and promised that she would help her investigate it thoroughly.

He must know something!

"Grandma, I want to go out of the house."

☆★☆★☆★

There are infinite benefits to having an enlightened and understanding elder. Lin Zhaoyan left the mansion very smoothly, and Mrs. Liu didn't ask a question.

She probably thought she was going to Li's house to apologize in person.

Lin Zhaoyan didn't plan to get along with him. Now she can minimize contact with the Li family. Mrs. Li personally retreated from the marriage and saved her a lot of trouble. As for Mrs. Liu, she will find a way to explain in the future.

The carriage came to Xiao Qi's residence smoothly.

Lin Zhaoyan asked the coachman Fu to drive the carriage to the entrance of the alley to wait for her, and then he walked towards the corner gate on the side.
To be continued...
