The Return of An Lingrong in Legend of Zhen Huan

With the favor of the emperor, An Lingrong cleaned up an elegant room for Lin Xiu in the side hall, and all the decorations were according to Lin Xiu's preferences.

When Lin Xiu learned that her daughter had done all these things herself, she couldn't help but say, "You are pregnant now, so don't do these things. Aren't you tired?"

"Oh, don't worry, mother is fine. Besides, won't you still take care of me from now on? How could a daughter be tired?" An Lingrong leaned on Lin Xiu's shoulder and said coquettishly.

In the evening of the day when Lin Xiu arrived, the emperor also came once. After meeting Lin Xiu, he told An Lingrong to take good care of her pregnancy and then left.

Xia Dongchun also came once. It was the doctor sent by their family who cured Lin Xiu's eyes, so when Lin Xiu saw Xia Dongchun, he bowed deeply to express his gratitude.

"Oh, aunt, what are you doing? Hurry up and get up." Xia Dongchun was so nervous that she didn't know what to do. She quickly helped Lin Xiu up: "Rong'er, you helped me. This is what I should do. You don't have to be so polite."

But Lin Xiu still insisted on thanking Xia Dongchun, and said that her daughter must have received help from the Xia family in the harem, and it was reasonable for her to thank them.

Xia Dongchun leaned close to An Lingrong's ear and whispered: "Your mother is just like you, so gentle."

An Lingrong also smiled and nodded. Yes, when she was a child everyone said that she looked like Lin Xiu, but later her father became an official and favored his concubine over his wife. She watched her mother being bullied by the concubine, and when she stood up for him she was scolded by her father. Gradually she became introverted, inferior, and sensitive.

My mother is good in every way except that she is too cowardly and listens too much to my father.

An Lingrong also tactfully mentioned to her mother that she had now become her mother's support and she could do whatever she wanted.

But Lin Xiu said that An Bihuai had been very good to her recently, and had sent away all the concubines who had not borne children, and those concubines who had children should not bother her recently. She just wanted the family to live a good life.

An Lingrong sighed helplessly. If it weren't for the fact that not having a father would have an impact on her future career, she would have killed her father long ago. In her previous life, he kept holding her back. She almost had her pants off. She hated him a long time ago.

But as long as my mother likes it, An Lingrong will spare his life as long as An Bihuai doesn't hurt Lin Xiu anymore.

After seeing off Xia Dongchun, other concubines who were on good terms with An Lingrong came to visit one after another, some to send gifts, some to send gifts. They worked hard all day before they could rest.

Before going to bed, Lin Xiu looked at An Lingrong with concern and said, "Mom has learned a little bit about massage recently, let me give you a massage. It's easy to get edema during pregnancy."

An Lingrong took Lin Xiu's hand and said, "It's okay, mother. Baoyu and Baoyu will take care of all this. Don't worry. Look." As she spoke, An Lingrong showed her fair calves, "I haven't had any water vapor disease since I was pregnant. Don't worry, mother."

Without waiting for Lin Xiu to say anything, An Lingrong hugged Lin Xiu's arm and said, "Mom, can you sleep with me tonight? Just like when we were little, stay with me."

Lin Xiu looked at her daughter lovingly and said, "You are already a mother, but you are still acting like a child."

"Well, no, as long as mom is around, Rong'er will always be a child."

Lin Xiu couldn't help but An Lingrong, so she agreed. At night, the mother and daughter lay in bed. Lin Xiu sang the nursery rhyme that she used to sing to put An Lingrong to sleep when she was a child, and An Lingrong seemed to have returned to her childhood.

An Lingrong felt as if time had stopped at this moment. There were only her and her mother. There were no bloody struggles in the harem, and no pain of committing suicide by eating almonds in the previous life.

An Lingrong fell asleep with a smile. In the dream, it was when An Bihuai was not yet an official. Lin Xiu was working at a loom, and An Lingrong was sitting beside her, quietly listening to her mother humming a Jiangnan tune.
