The Return of An Lingrong in Legend of Zhen Huan

Note: I am very sorry for giving you a bad reading experience. I will modify this character immediately. Sorry?_?

An Lingrong got up very early that day and waited at the door of Luxiangzhai.

An Lingrong wanted to go pick her up in person, but because of the Queen, the Emperor did not allow her to go that far, so she had to wait at the door.

An Lingrong paced anxiously. The palace maids beside her were also terrified and stood in a circle in silence.

Lin Xiu had just arrived at the gate of Yuanmingyuan in a carriage. According to the rules, she should have paid her respects to the Empress Dowager and the Empress first. However, the eunuch Xiao Xiazi who was leading her said, "The Emperor knows that Concubine Rou misses her mother very much, so he specifically allowed Madam not to pay her respects and could go to Concubine Rou first."

Lin Xiu hurriedly responded, "No, no, I hope Lady Rou is well. Let's go and pay our respects to the Queen and the Empress Dowager first. Thank you, eunuch, for leading the way."

Seeing Lin Xiu being so polite, Xiao Xiazi couldn't help but sigh in his heart, like mother, like daughter.

Because the Queen happened to be in the Empress Dowager's palace, Lin Xiu, under the leadership of Xiao Xiazi, paid their respects to the two masters.

Seeing Lin Xiu being so well-behaved, the Queen Mother nodded and praised: "Like mother, like daughter, you two both know how to behave."

"Thank you, Your Majesty. I am a reserved person and appreciate your care." Lin Xiu said politely.

The empress dowager nodded, and after giving a few instructions, she allowed Lin Xiu to go to Luxiangzhai to reunite with An Lingrong.

Lin Xiu hadn't seen her daughter for more than a year. Missing her dearly, she hurried to Luxiangzhai under the leadership of Xiao Xiazi. All the way she was thinking about her daughter. Was she fatter or thinner now? Was she suffering in the harem?

Over at Luxiangzhai, Baoyu saw An Lingrong standing there and couldn't help but say, "My lady, please sit down and wait. The old lady has to go and pay her respects to the Empress Dowager, and it will take a while."

An Lingrong nodded and said, "Of course I know, but I'm so excited when I think about seeing my mother that I can't sit still."

Finally, under everyone's persuasion, An Lingrong went into the house to wait, and by the way, asked someone to check whether the snacks prepared for Lin Xiu were ready.

After a while, Baoyu ran in excitedly and said, "My lady, my lady, the old lady is here."

An Lingrong stood up happily and hurried to the door to greet her. Lin Xiu also saw her daughter. An Lingrong hadn't seen Lin Xiu for more than ten years in her previous life, so she hugged Lin Xiu and cried bitterly.

But Lin Xiu didn't know. She just thought that her daughter was crying so hard because she must have been wronged, so she hugged An Lingrong and cried with heartache.

Everyone quickly persuaded An Lingrong that she should not be too happy or too sad now that she was pregnant. Lin Xiu also reacted and comforted her daughter, and the two went into the house together.

Because it had been arranged long ago, when Baoyu saw Xiaoxiazi again, he quickly handed over a bag of silver and said, "Thank you for your hard work, eunuch. My young mistress would like to invite you to have tea."

"Thank you, young lady. I will not disturb the reunion of Concubine Rou and her daughter." Then he took his leave.

After entering the house, Lin Xiu stroked An Lingrong's belly and said worriedly: "Why is it so big? With such a big belly, she must be pregnant with three children, right?"

An Lingrong touched her belly and said with a smile: "The imperial physician did say that my daughter is pregnant with more than one baby, but I estimate that it should be twins."

Lin Xiu shook her head and said, "It's not too big, it doesn't look like two." Then she said worriedly, "Giving birth is dangerous for women, and you're pregnant with more than one, so it will probably be even more dangerous."

An Lingrong hurriedly comforted her mother, saying that the imperial doctors in the palace were all first-rate, that she had found a midwife, and that Bao Yu, who was by her side, also knew medical skills, so her mother could rest assured.

"Well, fortunately, the emperor has granted permission, so I can stay here until you are out of confinement. Otherwise, your belly is so big, if you are really worried, your mother will have to accompany you during the delivery. I will be by your side, so don't be afraid." As she said this, Lin Xiu touched his head like she did when An Lingrong was a child.

Feeling the long-lost maternal love again, An Lingrong couldn't help crying again, which frightened the palace servants so much that they managed to persuade her to go back.

"Oh, right." Lin Xiu remembered something and took out a few small clothes from the bag beside her: "These are embroidered for my grandson and granddaughter. I don't know whether you are pregnant with a boy or a girl, so I made two for each boy and girl."

An Lingrong stroked the small clothes that Lin Xiu had brought. The material was of top-notch quality, and the patterns on it were all Suzhou embroidery. It must have been embroidered with the skills that Lin Xiu had learned throughout her life.

An Lingrong was so moved that tears welled up in her eyes. She choked up and said, "Mother's eyesight has just recovered, why are you doing these needlework again?"

Lin Xiu waved her hand and said, "It's okay. My eyes were cured by the doctor arranged by the Xia family a few months ago. I heard that you and the young lady of the Xia family are good friends. In the palace, it is good to make more friends, but you must also know people's hearts. Some friends can be made, and some friends cannot be made."

Lin Xiu remembered and gave An Lingrong another set of instructions. An Lingrong listened to her mother's nagging and felt extremely happy at the moment.
