Transmigrated As My Former Uncle's Sweetheart

1755 It Was Difficult Not To Harbor Thoughts Of Her
Lu Liangwei nodded. “You’re right. But do you think Yin’er can really give up on Xue’er?” She was still a little worried about this.

“Matters of the heart can’t be discarded just like that. Give him some time.” Long Yang consoled her.

“Alright. I hope our son is able to understand and stop beating himself up over this,” Lu Liangwei said with a slight headache over this matter.

...

If it was modern times, children of this age would be considered to be having puppy love, but in olden times, they were old enough to get married and have children already.

It had never occurred to her that she would one day get troubled over her children’s relationship issues.

At the mention of her children, she suddenly remembered something but hesitated when she looked at Long Yang.

However, Long Yang was now totally focused on her body and did not notice the unusual look on her face.

They had been separated for more than two months. He had managed when he was unable to see her, but now that his demure wife was in his arms, it was difficult not to harbor thoughts of her.

“Let’s go to bed, Weiwei,” he said huskily.

Lu Liangwei swallowed the words she was about to utter when she looked at the man’s elegantly handsome face.

She decided to forget about it and not talk about Yaoyao and Beitang You for now.

Long Yang carried her in his arms and headed for the bed.

It was a few days later when Chu Qi returned to the imperial capital with Ji’er.

After settling Lil Lin and the other two children in the capital, Chu Qi escorted Ji’er back to the Palace.

Lu Liangwei had received news earlier on about their return and she waited at the Palace gates for them quite early with Long Yin.

When she saw Ji’er walking out of the horse-drawn carriage, Lu Liangwei could not help crying.

“Ji’er…” She stumbled as she went to welcome Ji’er.

Long Yin quickly stopped her from falling when he saw this.

“Yin’er, Ji’er is back,” Lu Liangwei turned to say to Long Yin agitatedly.

“Yes, Mother. Ji’er is back.” Long Yin was also relieved to see Ji’er looking fine. He helped his agitated but overjoyed mother walk toward Ji’er.

When Ji’er got off the carriage, the first thing she saw was her family waiting expectantly for her.

She felt guilty and a little ashamed instantly.

This feeling only intensified when she saw her mother stumble in her direction. It made her feel even guiltier.

She could no longer pretend not to care and she pursed her lips tight. Ji’er suddenly pushed Chu Qi’s hand away and ran toward Lu Liangwei. “Mother, I’ve been a bad daughter…”

Lu Liangwei opened her arms wide and hugged her daughter tightly.

Her worry for Ji’er finally disappeared when she wrapped her arms around her daughter.

When she saw how her Ji’er’s face had become thin, she felt a pang of pain. Her voice choked back with a sob. “You’re finally home, silly girl. Do you have any idea how much I’ve missed you?”

Ji’er sobbed as she cried too. “I’m sorry, Mother. I…”

“I know. I really do. You’ve done nothing wrong. There is no need for you to apologize. Come with me, let’s go in and talk.” Lu Liangwei grabbed Ji’er’s hand. It was just like when the girl was young and they went shopping in town. She had always been afraid that her daughter would be lost in the crowd and there was not a second when she let her guard down.
“Mother, your health…” Ji’er remembered her mother’s condition and quickly asked.

Lu Liangwei glanced at her with a slightly guilty look. “Ji’er, please don’t be mad at me, okay? I was pretending to be ill because I wanted you home so badly.” She looked pitifully at Ji’er as she said, “Ji’er, please don’t be angry at me.”

Ji’er sighed when she heard this.

She had been right. Her mother was just pretending to be ill.

However, she still felt very happy to see that her mother was not ill and was in good health.

“I’m not mad at you, Mother. I was the one who had acted stubbornly, causing everyone to be anxious and worried for me.” She lowered her eyes with guilt as she blamed herself for this.

Lu Liangwei rubbed her head when she saw this. “Silly girl. It’s enough that you’re home. As for other matters, you don’t need to worry about them.”
