Chapter 255
She initially thought that the visitor was up to no good, but Imperial Concubine Su's only intention was to bring her daughter over to play. After talking to her, she learned that Lin Feilu was attending classes in the Imperial School and was not in the courtyard, so she coaxed Lin Wei again, "Your sister is not here at the moment, so how about we come again in the afternoon?"
As they had already arrived after coming all the way here, the little baby refused to give in. She struggled from her arms and stumbled to the small wooden house next to the flower field. Patting the roof roughly like how Lin Feilu did yesterday, she shouted, "Chang Er! Puppy!"
The little white dog ran out of the small wooden house happily. Smelling the familiar scent of the little baby, it started to wag its tail and pounced on her.
Lin Wei giggled with joy and instantly forgot about her Mother Concubine.
Imperial Concubine Su looked at her for a moment before she said to Xiao Lan, who was beside her, with a light smile, "This flower field is well managed."
Xiao Lan also smiled listening to the comment,"It's all done by Lu Er. That child has always liked flowers and plants."
Imperial Concubine Su's gaze fell on the rabbit nest next to the small wooden house. She had frequent contacts with Noble Consort Ruan, so it wasn't a surprise for her to recognise the rabbit that Lin Ting had raised since his childhood. In addition to that, she also knew that her cousin forced her son to kill the rabbit in order to train the mentality of the eldest Prince.
Unexpectedly, not only did the rabbit escape the jaws of death, but it was secretly being raised here by the Fifth Princess.
Upon glancing at the little white dog playing with her daughter, she seemed to remember that the Ruan family had sent a dog into the palace before. She heard that it escaped, so what was it doing here?
How interesting.
Seeing that Imperial Concubine Su didn't speak, Xiao Lan just looked at her with an inquisitive gaze. Imperial Concubine Su didn't know about the secret between Lin Feilu and Lin Ting, so she felt slightly uneasy. However, she quickly retracted her wary emotions and praised with a light smile, "I heard that the Fifth Princess is smart and quick-witted. Indeed, I think that the claim is true."
Xiao Lan lowered her eyes and smiled.
Imperial Concubine Su waited for Lin Wei to play for a while longer before she embraced the child, intending to leave the Mingyue Palace as she carried her daughter. The little baby was having fun with the puppy and the kitten, so when she was picked up, she started to burst into tears.
Imperial Concubine Su also was very troubled as she tried to coax her softly, "Your sister is not here and it's not fun for Weiwei to play alone. When your sister comes back, I'll bring you over to play again, alright?"
The reason why the little baby was called 'the little baby' was because she was known to be unreasonable and fussy.
She cried and howled, but when she had a glimpse of someone, she pointed to the door and yelled, "Brother is here! Weiwei can play with brother!"
Imperial Concubine Su turned around. There, she saw a little boy hiding behind the door and poking his head into the garden.
Every time a stranger came to the Mingyue Palace, Lin Zhanyuan would hide somewhere. Despite the fact that he saw his new little sister playing happily, he didn't dare to intrude and come to play together with her.
Xiao Lan called to him, "Yuan Er, come and greet Imperial Concubine Su."
