Ling Xuewei couldn't laugh or cry, and Ling Yu finally burst into tears and laughed.
After a while, the packaged food was ready, Xiao Yifeng took it naturally, and the three of them and one beast left Zuixian Tower.
Back at Ling Mansion, Ling Xuewei followed Ling Yu to his residence.
Ling Yu is a sideline. His father, Ling Xiao's fifth brother, passed away a long time ago, leaving only a poor mother and son.
Ling Yu's mother was just a servant of the Ling Mansion with a foreign surname.
She and Ling Yu's father came together without hesitation, regardless of the opposition of the tribe and secular concepts.
Even if she didn't even have a decent wedding, she had no regrets.
Later, Ling Yu was born and the fifth uncle passed away.
Because of Ling Yu's mother's lowly background, Ling Yu was also known as the illegitimate son born of a lowly slave. Not only could he not be included in the family tree, but he was also ostracized everywhere.
Since Ling Yu's father was not valued by the family during his lifetime, the life of the mother and son became even more difficult after his death.
Although Ling Xuewei had been mentally prepared before, she was still shocked when she saw the dilapidated courtyard in front of her.
Even though Ling Yu and her son are disliked by the family, they are still decent masters.
These servants are so wasteful, and the accommodation they are given is not even as good as that of a servant!
A group of people who favor the superior and suppress the inferior!
"Mom! Mom, I'm back! Look who I brought here!" Ling Yu shouted in the courtyard. After a moment, he saw a middle-aged woman walking out of the room with a hunched body.
"Yu'er is back, this is..." Zhang Xinlan looked at Ling Xuewei next to her, wondering.
"Mom, this is the third cousin! The cousin Ling Xuewei of the third uncle's family that I often tell you about!"
Zhang Xinlan looked surprised, "Are you Miss Wei'er?"
Ling Xuewei stepped forward and said, "Hello, aunt, I should have come to visit you a long time ago. Please forgive me for delaying until now."
"Hey, I'm so happy that you can come! Yu'er has always mentioned you to me, and now I finally see you! Come on, come into the house, don't stand outside." Zhang Xinlan greeted hurriedly.
Zhang Xinlan led people into the house, boiled water, prepared tea, and was busy.
Ling Xuewei pulled her to sit down, "Aunt, please stop being busy. If you do this, I won't dare to come next time."
One sentence immediately made everyone laugh.
"But at least we need to prepare some hot tea for Miss Wei'er..."
"Mom, sit down and talk to your cousin, I'll go!" Ling Yu got up and went to work.
Zhang Xinlan said with emotion, "Ms. Weier made me laugh."
"No, aunt, don't call me miss. Just call me Wei'er."
"How did this happen?"
It stands to reason that Ling Xuewei is a direct descendant, and their collateral descendants will all bow when they see her.
It is natural to call Ling Xuewei 'Miss'.
"Since Yu'er calls me cousin, you are Yu'er's mother and naturally Wei'er's elder. If you still call me miss, won't you be insulting me?" Ling Xuewei said.
"Okay, okay, then it's Yvette."
Zhang Xinlan said with a smile, "Yu'er often mentions you to me, especially recently. I know you have been helping him a lot. I am here to thank you for Yu'er..."
As she was about to stand up, Ling Xuewei quickly stopped her, "Aunt, what are you doing? Yu'er is my younger brother. Isn't it natural for a sister to help her younger brother? If you thank me again, I won't dare to come here again...
…”
"Yes, Mom, just relax!" Ling Yu made tea and came over, "By the way, Mom, you haven't eaten yet, right? This is what my cousin brought you, there's a lot of it! Take advantage of it quickly
Eat it hot!”
Zhang Xinlan was surprised when she saw Ling Yu bringing out a bunch of exquisite dishes like a magic trick.
Ling Xuewei said, "It's not something expensive, just some food. Auntie, please don't refuse."
Ling Xuewei knew that Zhang Xinlan would not accept anything that was too expensive, so she only brought these foods and a few plates of exquisite snacks.
Zhang Xinlan didn't know Ling Xuewei's intentions, and she was extremely grateful, "Weier, have you eaten? Let's eat together!"
"Xiaoyu and I ate outside before. You don't have to worry about me. Just eat quickly."
Ling Xuewei looked at Zhang Xinlan's rickety and thin body and knew that she must be having a bad life.
He is obviously only in his thirties, but he looks as old as fifty.
Ling Xuewei felt heartbroken.
This Zhang Xinlan, it seems, has some relationship with her deceased mother.
Before her mother was alive, she had a very good relationship with Zhang Xinlan. They were good sisters in private, which is why Zhang Xinlan was so excited to see her.
Of course, these are all things she finally learned from her memory after meeting Xiaoyu.
Ling Yu kept picking up food for Zhang Xinlan nearby, while Ling Xuewei took advantage of this time to look around.
The house was extremely simple, but it was kept very clean by Zhang Xinlan.
It's just that the house is too dilapidated. It's okay in the summer, but it becomes difficult in the winter.
Ling Xuewei looked away calmly, while Ling Yu was still talking about what happened in today's competition, almost dancing with excitement.
Zhang Xinlan was very happy to hear that. She was extremely relieved to know that her son had won a great victory today.
"Yu'er, mother doesn't want you to be famous, I just want you to be safe. Do you understand?" Zhang Lanxin asked.
"Mom, don't worry! I'm sensible, you don't have to worry!" Ling Yu nodded vigorously.
"That's good. Wei'er, Yu'er has caused trouble for you..." Zhang Lanxin then said to Ling Xuewei.
"What are you talking about, aunt? Yu'er is very upbeat and sensible. I'm very happy to have this younger brother!" Ling Xuewei said with a smile.
Ling Yu was so happy when he was praised that he almost grinned up to his ears.
"Mom, you heard it! My cousin praised me! Hehe!"
Zhang Lanxin poked Ling Yu's forehead.
"You, don't bother Weier too much, you know?!"
"I know, mother, please hurry up and eat..."
"well……"
…
During this meal, the atmosphere in the room was extremely happy, and laughter could be heard from time to time.
It wasn't until nightfall that Ling Xuewei left with Xiao Yifeng.
After returning to the yard and washing up briefly, Ling Xuewei asked her servants to find Ling Shun.
"Miss Third, are you looking for a younger one?"
Ling Xuewei slowly took a sip of tea and said nothing.
Ling Shun didn't know why and secretly looked at Ling Xuewei's face.
He shouldn't have done anything bad recently, right?
On weekdays, he was extremely respectful to the third lady, and he did not dare to neglect Ling Xuewei's orders at all.
Ling Shun thought with fear.
Could it be that he offended Ling Xuewei in some way?
"Steward Ling, do you know your mistake?" Ling Xuewei asked with a straight face.
Ling Shun was agitated and knelt down quickly, "I don't know if there is something I didn't do well, please let me know."
Ling Xuewei said calmly, "The slaves below you are acting against the will and are disrespectful to the master. Do you know this?"
Ling Shun was shocked, "Young lady is wronged! How can anyone in this house dare to be disrespectful to young lady?"
Ling Xuewei reminded, "It's not me, it's my fifth aunt."
Fifth aunt?
Ling Shun broke into a cold sweat. He finally remembered that the third lady was talking about the mother and son in the fifth room!
I heard that Ling Yu has been very close to the young lady recently. Could it be because of this?
After Ling Shun figured it out, he immediately wanted to slap himself hard!
Obviously knowing that Master Ling Yu and the young lady have been getting close recently, why did he forget to instruct the people below to take good care of them!
"You deserve to die! You neglected your duty! Please forgive me, Miss! I will instruct the people below to take good care of Master Ling Yu and Aunt Zhang."
Ling Shun quickly apologized.
"I remember that there is an empty courtyard next to my Lingyun Pavilion. The environment is quite quiet. You can give that courtyard to my aunt and the others."
Ling Xuewei was too lazy to talk to Ling Shun and gave instructions directly.
She had given Ling Shun so much money before, and that money was not given in vain.
"From now on, I will not neglect their food and clothing! If I find someone who dares to do something behind their back, I will not be lenient! Butler Ling, do you understand?"
Ling Xuewei's eyes warned sharply.
Ling Shun nodded repeatedly, "Yes, I understand, I will do it now..."
Ling Shun retreated in a hurry, not daring to slack off at all.
Just kidding, now even the head of the Ling Mansion doesn't dare to do anything to the Third Miss. They, as slaves, naturally have to serve her more carefully!
Besides, Ling Xuewei is now Ling Shun's God of Wealth, so Ling Shun doesn't dare to offend Ling Xuewei.
"Xuewei, do you need me to follow him?" Xiao Yifeng walked in.
Ling Xuewei said, "No, he doesn't dare to do anything."
The family now hates and fears her, Miss Ling San, so the servants naturally act according to the circumstances and dare not neglect her.
"By the way, Yifeng, I plan to explore the underground chamber of the Colosseum tomorrow." Ling Xuewei made a decision.
Xiao Yifeng's face turned solemn, "It's heavily guarded there, I'll go with you."
"Well. Yifeng, please tell me the terrain there in detail..."
…
One night passed.
The next day.
Ling Xuewei got up early in the morning, had a simple breakfast, and then started practicing boxing in the courtyard.
To be honest, today's opponent made her eager to try.
It has been nearly a month since the last battle with the poisonous man. She has been practicing and refining elixirs lately, and her bones have been itching for a long time.
She couldn't help but get excited when she thought that her opponent today was a martial arts master.
The fist is powerful, making the sound of rustling wind. The footwork is flexible and as steady as Mount Tai.
Gradually, the steps became faster and faster, and the shadow of the fist streaked through the air.
When Ling Yu came to Lingyun Pavilion, he saw this scene.
He was so surprised that he stood aside quietly without making a sound.
After Ling Xuewei made her last move, she slowly stopped her attack and let out a breath of turbid air.
"Cousin, you are so awesome!" Ling Yu then ran over.
Ling Xuewei took the handkerchief he handed and wiped the sweat on her face, "Why so early? Don't you have no competition today?"
"I'm going to cheer for you, cousin!"
Ling Yu said excitedly.
"My cousin didn't expect you to be so skilled. Although I have never seen the boxing technique just now, if you look carefully you can understand its secrets. Compared with the rigid moves taught by the instructors at home, this boxing technique is much more flexible!"
