The identity shift of Chu Yunhan and his son came too suddenly. Except Ling Jingxuan, his two brothers and the two little buns, the others all still were hard to accept it, plus, such a seductively charming man who came from nowhere, the whole family didn’t know how to respond. When it was nearly lunch time, everyone gathered in the central room successively. But once Chu Yunhan and his son showed up, everyone couldn’t help going stiff all over, making Chu Yunhan not know whether he should walk in or walk away. Yan Xiaoming showed a slice of hurt feeling in his eyes. Before they were all respectful to them, but not like strangers like now. To him who had too much attachment to this family, it was really a big blow.
“Brother Yan, why did you stop? Come here, Sister-in-law Song made pickled cabbage fish today, fresh and tender, very delicious.”
The small bun was still little after all. Even though he also felt the strange atmosphere, it wouldn’t bother him much. Smelling the fish hard, he dragged him in. Yan Shengrui felt a warm stream in the heart and subconsciously raised his foot to step in.
“My…prince…”
“Bang!”
Stiff all over, Lady Wang stammered while suddenly kneeling down, others all knelt down after her. Yan Xiaoming slightly frowned, and Ling Wen hurriedly moved forward trying to hold her up, “Grandma, what are you doing? Get up!”
“I…I dare not!”
Giving her big grandson an eye and then Chu Yunhan and Yan Xiaoming, Lady Wang lowered her head deeply. No warned, no fault. She hadn’t known before, but now since she knew, how would she dare to sit on one table together with them? They are the empress and the prince–the owner of the whole kingdom!
“Mom, there is no empress or prince here, you are the master here, get up quickly.”
Ling Jingxuan helplessly held his forehead. He could feel their scare. If it were some other village family, they would have already peed in the pants on seeing such two unreachable figures. But anyhow, they had lived together them for so long, didn’t they know what kind of people they were? Were they that kind of people who liked putting on airs? Her behavior didn’t show them respect, on the contrary, it’d only make them more embarrassed.
“But I…”
‘But I can’t stand up. My legs!’ Of course Lady Wang didn’t say those words out. She was only a common village woman who even would bow as low as she could when seeing the magistrate, let alone it was the empress and prince now.
“Forget it. Jingxuan, I’ll eat in Shengrui’s room with Yan’er.”
Stopping Ling Jingxuan who was still trying to say something, Chu Yunhan nodded at Yan Shengrui embarrassedly, and then turned to walk out with Yan Xiaoming. Zeng Shaoqing threw Lady Wang a meaningful look, then Yan Shengrui a strange look, and also walked out.
“Uncle Chu, wait for us.”
Seeing that, the two little buns decisively followed out, leaving Lady Wang there. Yan Shengrui and Ling Jingxuan exchanged glances and saw helplessness in each other’s eyes. Strictly speaking, Lady Wang did nothing wrong, although what she did was a bit hurting their feelings. But she was only a village woman. She had already performed well enough that she didn’t pass out.
“What is going on? Didn’t you say it’s time to eat some food?”
Ling Chenglong who hurried back with Old Zhou looked at his wife kneeling there, suddenly turned to Ling Jingxuan and asked, “Jingxuan, why are they kneeling outside the gate?”
He got startled when he came in, and when he told them to get up, they did not move as if they hadn’t heard him, which made him confused.
“Huh? Almost forget about them. As the master, aren’t you afraid they might break their legs for having knelt for too long?”
After he said so, Ling Jingxuan also remembered the existence of those two people, who had almost knelt out there for an hour?
“They deserve it. Or you think it’s enough?”
Withdrawing that kind of superior feeling when facing the outsiders, Yan Shengrui seemed to have a flirtatious spirit all over his body now, always trying to please his precious wife.
“It’s none of my business.”
It was none of his business even if they broke their knees. Ling Jingxuan turned around and walked to Lady Wang and supported her up, “Mom, Yunhan and Yan’er are going back to the palace where people eat people without even spitting out the bones. However reverent you are, you shouldn’t have shown it. It’s not easy for them. You were embarrassing them just now.”
“Really?”
Hearing that, Lady Wang was startled and seemed to realize that her behavior was improper. She hurriedly and nervously grabbed his hand, “What should I do? When I saw them coming in, I just thought about their identities, I…I didn’t think that much. Jingxuan, should I go invite them over to eat food together?”
“No need, mom, just don’t do this again. Yunhan and Yan’er only crave for some warmth of a common family, which is also the least we lack of. As least before they leave, we should let them feel some warmth.”
Ling Jingxuan was also helpless, he didn’t mean to blame his mother and also knew his mother was not holding some bad intention or what, it was just…Alas, some things were ingrained, some other day he had to go to Guarantor Liu to buy several mammies teaching formalities who had ever worked in those big families. As the only hostess in the house, she had to receive those ladies from the official families sooner or later. And this wouldn’t do.
“Hmm, I’ll try my best. Jingxuan, you know I am just a village woman, who sees no big scenes. So, on seeing people from the imperial palace, I feel a bit unadaptable. You help me explain to Lord Chu and Yan’er, OK?”
Taking her son’s hand, Lady Wang looked quite regretted. Mr. Chu and Yan’er were good people. It’s just, you know, sometimes people are strange. What you think is completely different from what you do. As long as she thought of their true identity, she just couldn’t help shivering all over.
“Well, that’s all right. Let’s get ready for dinner.”
After convincing his mother, Ling Jingxuan helped her sit down at the table and still didn’t not forget to say, “Ling Yun, let Sister-in-law Song send some food for them, you go serve them. Do remember. There’s no empress and prince here. You’d better forget about that.”
“Yes, Master Xuan!”
After all Ling Yun had ever served in big families, so her manners were quite normative. Ling Jingxuan nodded with satisfaction, thinking whether he should ask Ling Yun to train Liu Xiaohui and Song Shuiling who were younger than her. In the future, one of them had to go to the capital with him. What to do if they knew nothing?
“Well, Shengrui, since they are your subordinates, let them get up. Two big men kneeling outside has a bad influence. And it’d hurt if they kneel for too long.”
On the other side, from the conversation of his son and half son, Ling Chenglong could also tell what was happening, naturally he’d say some words for them, after all he was only a honest farmer, and always had a soft heart.
“Hmm.”
Looking at his wife and then his father-in-law, Yan Shengrui nodded. Seeing that, Ling Chenglong also grinned, “All right, let’s get ready for dinner. Shengrui, our Jingxuan is really capable. He said we can grow late rice and we really did it. Now the rice has grown this tall, and in quite good condition. Next month the latest, we can harvest. And this year, we’ll have our own rice to eat.”
Speaking of things in the field, Ling Chenglong’s eyes were beaming. Yan Shengrui then told Old Zhou to let Yan Yi and Yan Shan get up, who also smiled following him. But, his focus was still on Ling Jingxuan, with only pride written on the face. His father-in-law was saying some nice words of his precious wife!
Chu Yunhan and his son were leaving. After Ling Jingxuan’s preaching, Lady Wang and others’ attitude had changed a lot. Though they couldn’t face it as calmly as Ling Jingxuan and his two younger brothers in such a short time, at least they wouldn’t get their legs softened on seeing them. For this, Chu Yunhan and his son also felt appreciated, and quite cherished the last time with them.
