City Lord's Madam got out of bed, putting on her robe, and sat down at her dressing table, tidying up her makeup, “To be honest, the Lin Clan boys have good character and are sincere in their actions. Mother approves of them. Are you sure you didn't like any of them?”
“Not all of them are good.”
Mu Qifu muttered quietly, pouting her cheeks, “There's one who isn't great, with a bad temper, always making people angry.”
“Hehe.”
The City Lord's Madam, with her sharp senses, caught on to the hidden meaning in her words. A trace of cunningness flashed in her eyes, “Which lad is so insensitive and made our Qifu feel so unhappy?”
“Who else but Lin Ruize?”
Mu Qifu did not notice her mother's brief playful expression, and continued with her complaints.
“This stinker, how dare he bully my precious daughter? Mother won't let him off.”
The City Lord's Madam pretended to be angry, rolling up her sleeves, ready to take matters into her own hands to avenge her daughter.
“Mother, don't!”
Mu Qifu was startled and tried to stop her without thinking, “He didn't bully me. It was just some small conflicts, nothing worth getting angry over.”
“Really?”
The City Lord's Madam pretended not to believe her.
“It's true.”
Mu Qifu giggled and hugged her mother, “Doesn't Mother trust me? When has Qifu ever lied to Mother?”
“Cough, cough.”
The City Lord's Madam smiled affectionately, then covered her mouth and coughed twice.
“Mother, what's the matter?”
Mu Qifu stopped laughing, her eyes filled with concern, “Are you not feeling well?”
“I don't know why, but I didn't sleep well last night.”
The City Lord's Madam touched her chest and took a weak breath, “I woke up several times, and only managed to fall asleep after taking the soothing pills. Perhaps I caught a cold from the night breeze, my throat feels uncomfortable.”
“Mother, do you still have any pills for soothing the throat?”
Mu Qifu asked without thinking, “Do you need me to go to the Medicine Shop and get you another bottle?”
“It seems that I am out of pills.”
The City Lord's Madam showed a troubled expression, “You don't like going to the Medicine Shop, do you? No matter, Mother's condition isn't serious, no need to buy more.”
“Mother's health is important.”
Mu Qifu had already run out of the room as she spoke, “Qifu is going now, I'll be back soon.”
“Take it slow, Mother is fine, no need to hurry back.”
The City Lord's Madam shouted a few words before rushing to the door, lifting the curtain and peering outside.
“Madam, I admire you.”
City Lord Mu appeared out of thin air, smiling and bowing in admiration, “Your methods are truly impressive. With just a couple of coughs, our daughter obediently goes on her way.”
“Qifu may be stubborn, but she's understanding and filial.”
The City Lord's Madam raised her eyebrows confidently, letting go of the curtain and sitting back down at the dressing table, “You could learn something from her, so you don't end up having a quarrel with our daughter first thing in the morning, making both of you unhappy.”
“You are right, Madam.”
City Lord Mu followed her back in, smiling as he picked up a comb to brush his wife's hair.
“Judging by Fu'er's reaction, she seems to have some feelings for Lin Ruize.”
The City Lord's Madam, enjoying her husband's services, laughed even more gracefully, “If we continue to make an effort, the marriage between the two youngsters may well come to pass.”
“According to Madam's plan, should I also pretend to be ill?”
City Lord Mu laughed playfully, “If both of us are sick, Fu'er will have to run to the Medicine Shop even more frequently.”
The City Lord's Madam gave him a coy glance and chided him playfully, “As the City Lord of Longyan City, with so many responsibilities, you cannot afford to fall sick so easily.”
“Your Lordship, Madam.”
At this moment, a maid came to the door and respectfully reported, “The Lin Residence has sent an invitation, inviting Miss Qifu to attend the Flower Appreciation Banquet in two days.”
