s in check, lest she expose herself.The Old Madam Queen saw that she was frightened and comforted her, "This Empress Dowager just saw you are exceptionally intelligent and joyful in my heart. There's..."Wǎn'er misses you very much. She doesn't blame you; she just wants to see you."

Lu Fu patted Feng Lingxi's hand, as a mother she naturally knew what was going on in her mind. This Wan'er had only been here for two days, and she came here, certainly having received news and rushed over. This early morning, if it weren't for the Crown Prince coming to cause trouble, she probably would have arrived earlier.

Thank you for letting me know.

Feng Lingxi's heart wasn't that flustered, watching Lu Fu enter, she was very uneasy.

"Mother."

A sweet voice came, Feng Lingxi's body stiffened. She turned to look at the little girl who ran in from outside. The face that looked very similar to her own had lost its childishness and gained a touch of maturity, rushing to her front and hugging her tightly, almost reaching her chest.

Feng Ling Xi's heart felt as if it had been struck by something, her nose tingled, and her eyes became moist.

At the moment Wan'er hugged Feng Lingxi, her eyes welled up with tears. Now, holding her mother, she truly felt that she had really seen her mother, it wasn't a dream, but reality.

Feng Lingxi lowered her head, looking at Wan'er who was hugging her. Her trembling hand reached up, wanting to stroke Wan'er's hair, but she hesitated. She was so afraid that this whole period was just an illusion of hers, that one touch would make it vanish.

Tears dripped onto Wan'er's hair, her hand raised, but she never reached down.

"Your Highness, it's been a long time."

Su Yue stepped forward to greet them, glancing at the heartbroken princess who was hugging Feng Lingxi and crying. "These past few years, the princess has always thought of you. When she heard that you were in Xigu Kingdom, she immediately asked me to bring her here."

Feng Lingxi looked at Su Yue, nodding with tears in her eyes. Her hand, frozen in mid-air, clutched Wan'er tightly, tears like broken pearls falling down incessantly.

"Wan'er, I'm sorry, Mother has caused you trouble."

Feng Lingxi's voice trembled violently. Wan'er let out a cry and couldn't hold back her tears any longer. These years, the suppressed longing had turned into tears, and after hugging Feng Lingxi, it broke its dam.

Those who came after saw the scene before them and couldn't help but redden their eyes. Seeing her and her daughter crying so heartbroken, Lu Hao's heart was not at ease either.

"Sister!"

Lu Nian came back from outside and heard that Feng Lingxi was back. He ran quickly to the front hall, and seeing the mother and daughter crying like this, his steps stopped, his voice choked up, and his eyes seemed to have sand in them. He wanted to cry too. These years, he had been looking for his sister. Seeing her standing in front of him felt so unreal.

"Leave them alone."

Mrs. Lu patted Lu Nian, the girl was crying so well, and he interrupted her, what a pity.

Lu Nian chuckled, looking at Feng Lingxi crying. He was excited but also touched, his heart a jumble of emotions.

"That's wonderful, my little sister is back. Wan'er will never be without a mother again."

Lu Nian's words pierced Feng Ling Xi's heart like a sharp blade. Hearing Wan'er crying so heartbreakingly, she felt truly miserable. She knew she was in the wrong and didn't ask for her daughter's forgiveness. All she wanted was for her daughter to live a good life.

"Mother, from now on, Wan'er will never leave your side again."

Wan'er hugged Feng Lingxi's waist, refusing to let go. She cried loudly, but at this moment, she was so happy, so incredibly happy.

"Mother won't be separated from you, Wan'er. I'm sorry, Mother is late."

Wan'er shook her head, let go of her mother, sniffed, her eyes were red but she smiled, looking at her mother standing before her. So real yet so unreal.

"Mother, Wan'er misses you so much."

"Wan'er, be good."

Feng Lingxi held back her tears, reaching out to wipe the tears from Wan'er's eyes. Looking at Wan'er's grown face, she felt a surge of bittersweet emotions.

"Mother wishes for Wan'er as well." It's good to see my daughter.

Feng Lingxi kissed Wan'er's forehead, cupped her face, and broke into a smile. "My Wan'er has grown up and become beautiful."

Wǎn'ěr nodded fiercely, tears flowing even more violently.

"Alright, stop crying, you're making me want to cry."

Mrs. Lu wiped away the tears from her eyes. This reunion between mother and daughter was truly touching, it moved her to tears.

"Mother, do not cry."

Wan'er reached out and wiped the tears from Feng Lingxi's eyes. The mother and daughter looked at each other and smiled, then hugged tightly again.

It's good that Wǎn'ěr doesn't hate her.

It's so good that my mother misses me and loves me.

After a while, the mother and daughter hugged enough and finally reluctantly let go. Wan'er took her mother's hand and watched as her mother stood truly before her, a smile never leaving her face.

"Your Highness, the young lady hasn't been this happy in a long time. To see you, Your Highness, truly brings her joy."

Su Yue opened her mouth, but Feng Ling's smile froze. She heard Wan'er's displeasured reprimand towards Su Yue.

Don't talk nonsense, I laugh too.

"My subordinate wouldn't dare to speak out of turn. Ever since the princess consort disappeared, the county princess hasn't truly been happy. I've been with the county princess for five years; how could I not know"

Feng Lingxi, hearing Su Yue's words, felt even more sorrow in her heart. At just over two years old, could Wan'er have known the kind of pain she would feel when she left

"Didn't your father take care of you"

"Mother, please don't mention him."

When Wan'er heard her mother mention her father, she became angry. If it weren't for him, her mother wouldn't have disappeared for five years, and she wouldn't have been left without her mother's protection.

"Alright, mother won't ask."

Feng Ling Xi pulled Wan'er, looking at the smile on her face, her eyes became more and more gentle.

Her Wan'er has grown up, and now she stands before her, not a dream, but truly come to find her.

"Don't you two just get caught up in catching up and forget about this old woman, huh"

The old lady beamed, overjoyed to have a granddaughter and now a great-granddaughter. Her heart swelled with happiness; having four generations living under one roof was something she had always longed for.

Facing the old lady's concern, Feng Lingxi was still very grateful. After all, after she went down the mountain, she asked the Lu family for help, and they agreed to it. Moreover, they took such good care of her.

"Grandma, I apologize for the trouble."

Feng Lingxi smiled sheepishly and pulled Wan'er, saying, "Quickly tell your grandma of the Lu family hello."

"Hello, Grandma Lu."

Wan'er curtsied politely, but the old lady was unhappy. She quickly corrected her, "Wan'er, you must call me grandmother. Don't add 'Lu' to it."

"Mother..."

Wan'er looked conflicted. This needed her mother's approval.

"It's fine, call me whatever you like."

From this point forward, Wan'er will remain with them. The elderly women are already of this age. She promised her mother not to acknowledge Lu Hao, but Granny, it wouldn't hurt to call him once.

"Grandmother, hello."

When Wan'er called out to her like that, the old madam's eyes nearly burst into smiles with happiness.

"Hurry and call your great-grandfather," the old grandpa urged, following closely behind. He saw the old lady glare at him and chuckled sheepishly. "We're all family, let me hear Wan'er call me too."

"Great-grandfather good."

After Wan'er finished speaking, she took Feng Lingxi's wrist, her face beaming with unspeakable joy. Her mother should be so happy here; they were so kind to her mother.

"Wan'er, come here quickly, Grandmother has a gift for you."

"My great-grandfather did too." The old matriarch and the old patriarch hurriedly pulled Wan'er, wanting her to pay respects.” he said.Feng Lingxi continued to eat, rice grains clinging to the corner of her mouth unnoticed. Her clear eyes met those of Huangpu Qingyun, pure and unadulterated, like a mirror reflecting everyt...
