"Where have you been these days? You've been out for so long without even saying a word to me, but now you're not allowed to leave the city at will. Do you know how worried I am!"
Lin Sheng felt warm and guilty at the same time.
"I'm sorry, uncle, for making you worry. The situation was really urgent at the time and you were not at home, so I had to tell my mother first and let her tell you."
Xie Guang was still a little dissatisfied, "Are you really in such a hurry that you don't even have time to talk to your uncle in person?"
"I'm sorry." Lin Sheng quickly took Xie Guang's arm and started coquettishly, "It's all my fault for not thinking well. Uncle, you have a lot of money, so just forgive me this time, okay?"
Xie Guang's anger had mostly subsided. He looked at Sheng'er lovingly, "I already regard you as my own daughter. If you have anything to do next time, you must tell me. I am your uncle, not an outsider."
Lin Sheng nodded vigorously.
The fire in Xie Guang's heart had completely dissipated, and he asked curiously: "Why is the city gate so tightly controlled suddenly? Did something happen?"
Of course Lin Sheng couldn't talk nonsense, "I don't know about that, and I wasn't in the city at that time, but no one stopped me when I came back, so it seems like everything will be fine!"
Xie Guang nodded, "It's finally back to normal. I thought you had such a good relationship with Miss Lin and Mr. Liu that you would know some inside information!"
"Uncle, you are thinking too much!" Lin Sheng looked around, "Where is my mother?"
"Your mother," Xie Guang said hesitantly, "she is not at home now."
Lin Sheng had a bad feeling in her heart, and she hurriedly asked: "Where is my mother? Is she okay?"
"Your mother is feeling a little unwell!"
Lin Sheng was confused for a moment, "Where is she? I'll go find her."
"Sister Yunyi is at your master's place now."
"Okay, then I'll go there now."
"Slow down, don't be in a hurry." Xie Guang shouted loudly.
Sister Yunyi had been looking forward to Sheng'er's return every day these days, and he didn't know what was on her mind. Xie Guang saw that her face was getting worse and worse, and in the end he felt uneasy and forced Sister Yunyi to find Shi Heng.
Doctor Shi kept frowning while checking her pulse. After a long time, he said that Sister Yunyi paid too little attention to her health. She was always overworked and broke her body. From now on, she must take good care of herself.
Overworked? Xie Guang's heart skipped a beat.
Yes, Sister Yunyi has been doing all the housework at home these years. She is more like a servant of the family than a relative.
I was really too selfish, waiting for Sister Yunyi to do everything, and even took it for granted, and this was just because I took Sister Yunyi and Sheng'er in when she was in the most difficult time.
But they were once close playmates, and they were even more relatives. Why should relatives care about each other!
From then on, Xie Guang also began to help Sister Yunyi with some housework. As for his wife, he also solemnly explained that he could not wait for Sister Yunyi to do everything.
A family does not have to be rich and wealthy, it is enough if everyone is happy and healthy.

Lin Sheng just wanted to run to the master as soon as possible, so he didn't pay attention to his surroundings and accidentally knocked down others.
It was a coincidence that she bumped into Liu's housekeeper.
Butler Liu fell down in embarrassment on the street in front of so many people. He felt that he had lost face, so he shouted to Lin Sheng, "Don't you have eyes?"
Lin Sheng didn't know who the other person was. She was worried about her mother so she wasn't in the mood to explain too much to this person. She just carefully lifted him up and hurriedly said "I'm really sorry" before preparing to leave.
Butler Liu refused to give up. He winked at the servants who came with him, and they immediately stopped Lin Sheng.
"What are you going to do?"
"It's so easy to leave after bumping into someone. How can it be such a good thing!" Butler Liu arranged his clothes and walked slowly to Lin Sheng.
He still had a vicious smile on his face.
"Didn't I apologize already?"
"Apologise?" Butler Liu smiled maliciously, "You knocked me down. Can a simple apology solve the problem?"
"I didn't bump into you on purpose. I'm really sorry. I have something urgent to do now. Can you stop fussing with me?" Lin Sheng didn't want to cause trouble, so she said politely. At the end, she added, "Besides, I think There's nothing wrong with you, just let me go!"
"Is everything okay? Which of your eyes can see that I'm okay?" Butler Liu yelled.
The other party was so difficult to deal with, and Lin Sheng could no longer endure it.
Although it is better to do less than to do more, these people are simply bullying others too much. I really don’t know where they come from to be so rampant.
"Then what do you want?" Lin Sheng said not to be outdone, she was ready for a big fight.
"Haha, your tone is quite serious. You don't even think about what you are. How dare you talk to me like this."
Before Butler Liu could say the words "Teach her a lesson," he heard a voice say, "It's you who speaks loudly."
After he saw the person clearly, he immediately put on a flattering smile, completely different from before.
Liu Shaopu, the son of Magistrate Liu, how could he not recognize him.
Before he could salute and say hello, Mr. Liu put his arms around the girl's shoulders, "She bumped into you, of course you can teach her a lesson, but if you want to pass me, how about you let your men beat me up first?" Dayton?"
Although Liu Shaopu was still smiling, Lin Sheng could feel the anger in him.
"Look at what you said, you can't teach me a lesson. This girl didn't bump into me on purpose, and she has already apologized. Besides, I'm not an unreasonable person. This girl, I also want to say something to you. I'm sorry, my tone of voice was a bit bad just now, but I definitely didn't mean anything else. Don't take it to heart. This is just a misunderstanding. Now that everything has been made clear, I will go ahead and not disturb you two. "Butler Liu said with an apologetic smile.
He knew that the other party could not be offended, so after saying these words, he hurried away.
Seeing all these people running away, Lin Sheng wondered, "Do you know him?"
"He's just the housekeeper of the Liu family."
"Liu Mansion? Oh, that's the Liu Mansion!" Lin Sheng suddenly realized, "For a housekeeper to bully others like this, the world has really changed."
Then, she looked at Liu Shaopu again, "Why haven't you gone home yet?"
"I'm back." Liu Shaopu began to smile again.
"Then why are you here?"
"I don't know what happened, but I was a little worried about you, so I ran over to find you after meeting my father. Fortunately, I showed up in time."
"Even if you don't show up, I can still beat them." Lin Sheng was very moved, but he still meant what he said.
Every time she encounters something, Liu Shaopu is always the first one to appear.
"Where are you going in such a hurry?"
"I have to go to the hospital. My mother is feeling a little unwell."
After hearing this, Liu Shaopu hurriedly said: "Don't worry, I will go with you. Don't worry, my aunt will be fine."
Lin Sheng nodded.

Xie Yunyi and Shi Heng's relationship became increasingly close.
Sheng'er is so lucky to have such a good master.
What makes Xie Yunyi even more miraculous is that she had met Dr. Shi when she was young.
Xie Yunyi had long forgotten it, but she didn't expect that Doctor Shi would still remember it. A few days ago, he suddenly said to himself: "Madam is still as gentle and kind as before."
Xie Yunyi was surprised for a long time. After she asked carefully, she realized that they had known each other before.
Fate is such a clever thing.
"Mother, mother!"
Xie Yunyi heard the sound and quickly looked towards the door.
Sheng'er? It’s Sheng’er!
She, she is really back?
Xie Yunyi stood up in a hurry. She hugged her daughter hard, "Sheng'er, are you back?"
"Yes! Mom, I'm back."
"Why have you lost so much weight?" Xie Yunyi said distressedly.
"I'm fine, but what's wrong with you? I heard from my uncle that you're not feeling well. What's going on? Are you okay?"
Xie Yunyi looked at Dr. Shi uneasily. She didn't want Sheng'er to know about this. Sheng'er had already given up too much for herself, and she really couldn't put any more burden on her daughter because of herself.
"I'm fine now. If you don't believe me, you can ask Dr. Shi."
Lin Sheng looked at the master hurriedly. Shi Heng knew what Xie Yunyi was thinking, but he couldn't bear to deceive Sheng'er, so he could only say: "Madam's illness requires long-term recovery. You go back and take care of her and don't let her overwork. Also, don't Let her worry too much, it will be bad for her health. As for the medicine, I have already prescribed it. You have to watch her drink it every day, and you must also pay attention to her diet. In short, don’t let your mother suffer too much. Keep yourself."
Lin Sheng nodded quickly, her tears couldn't stop anymore.
Mom is exhausted, and all this is because of herself.
If it weren't for her, Mom wouldn't have to pay so much, let alone work hard day and night to get her body like this.
"Mom, I'm sorry." Lin Sheng cried and blamed himself.
Xie Yunyi knew that Sheng'er was thinking too much, so she quickly hugged her daughter, "I'm sorry, I'm fine, I'm really fine! Sheng'er, I will definitely pay attention to my health in the future, and I still have to watch over you, so don't worry anymore. "
"Mom, just think it's for me. From now on, you must pay attention to everything and remember what Master said. You can never be the same as before, okay?"
"Okay! Definitely! Definitely!"
"Mr. Liu, you are here too. Sit down quickly. Don't stand all the time." Shi Heng said suddenly.
He was so excited that Sheng'er came back safely, so he didn't notice Mr. Liu who came with him.
When Xie Yunyi heard this, she quickly looked towards Mr. Liu. Before she could speak, Liu Shaopu smiled and said: "Auntie, I'm really busy these days and I don't have time to see you. Don't blame me. Since You are not feeling well. You must listen to Dr. Shi and Lin Sheng in the future. You must take good care of yourself. Lin Sheng is my friend. If anything happens, you can come to me. You don’t have to be polite to me. "
Xie Yunyi nodded. She really liked Mr. Liu. She naturally knew what Mr. Liu wanted. She had always wanted to bring him and Sheng'er together, but since Sheng'er said those words last time, Xie Yunyi changed her mind.
She can't impose her will on Sheng'er. Although everything is for Sheng'er's good, Sheng'er should have her own choice.
You have to walk your own path.
Lin Sheng looked at her mother, then at Liu Shaopu, and an idea suddenly came to her mind, but she couldn't make up her mind yet.
"Liu Shaopu, please go back first. You don't have to worry about me here."
Liu Shaopu wanted to send them home, but seeing Lin Sheng's behavior, he stopped talking.
"Okay, then I'll go back first. If anything happens, you must come to me."
"Um."
Seeing that Mr. Liu had gone away, Shi Heng said deliberately: "Sheng'er, Mr. Liu is really a nice person. He has no pretensions at all and he cares about you very much."
Xie Yunyi knew that Sheng'er didn't like hearing this, so she quickly interrupted: "Thanks to Doctor Shi for taking care of me these days, you must treat your master well in the future, do you understand?"
Lin Sheng nodded vigorously.
Shi Heng looked at Xie Yunyi and said softly: "Madam, you are too polite. You are Sheng'er's mother, and Sheng'er is my good apprentice. Of course I have to take good care of you. I hope you will not treat me like this again in the future. If you feel uncomfortable in the future, you can come to me at any time."
Lin Sheng was very touched, but she always felt that something was not right. The master treated everyone well, but the way he looked at his mother seemed to have a different kind of emotion.
Before Lin Sheng had time to think carefully, she heard Xie Yunyi say: "It's getting late, let's go back first, and don't delay Doctor Shi's treatment. Doctor Shi, Sheng'er will be here early tomorrow. She hasn't been to the hospital these days. , I’m really sorry that you were busy all alone.”
"Madam, you really don't have to be so outspoken." After speaking, Shi Heng looked at Lin Sheng and said seriously: "Send your mother home to rest first, and we'll talk about it tomorrow! By the way, Sheng'er, you must remember me. As I said, don’t let your mother worry anymore.”
"I will, thank you Master." Lin Sheng said gratefully.
On the way home, Lin Sheng had mixed feelings in her heart. She looked at her mother who was getting older and felt more distressed.
"Mom, do you really want me to marry Liu Shaopu?" she asked suddenly.
Xie Yunyi quickly explained: "You don't need to care about what mother thinks. Whatever you want to do in the future, you can do it according to your own thoughts. Mother will not ask you to do things you don't want to do anymore. Mother, as long as you can be happy."
Lin Sheng's eyes were moist again, and she held back the tears from flowing out.
Why can my mother give everything for herself, but as a daughter, she always breaks her mother's heart and disappoints her again and again.
In the past, Lin Sheng always felt that she could do anything for her mother, just like her mother did for her, but now she found that she couldn't do it at all.
I clearly know that my mother is working very hard, I clearly know that my mother has a lot of burdens on her, and I clearly know that if she can marry Liu Shaopu, not only will my mother be happy, her life will be more comfortable, and she will not have to work so hard, but she will also be able to repay her uncle by complying with his wishes. He accepted the favor between himself and his mother, so that his mother's psychological burden would be relieved, but he just didn't want to.
She was unwilling to give up her freedom, unwilling to go against her heart, and unwilling to use this more practical way to make her mother's life better.
Even so, not only did my mother not force herself, but she also supported her unreservedly, as long as her daughter could be happy!
Lin Sheng felt extremely ashamed.
People cannot live just for themselves.
True freedom does not exist. Although there are too many things in life that need to be carried, and there are too many emotions and ties that will make him breathless from time to time, Lin Sheng is now willing to bear these.
She has already lived her own life once, so let her live for her mother.
Lin Sheng has decided to have a good talk with Liu Shaopu tomorrow.
