The gates opened and the maid led the three people of the Liu family straight inside the house.
Old Liu took in the scenery of the courtyard of the Ling residence and was completely amazed.
It was more beautiful than the parks in their town. There were rocks, gazebos, fountains… and a pond. It was in the middle of the winter and the fish in the pond were not dead!
Liu Zhuang ran over, curiously reached out his hand, and felt the water. His eyes widened in surprise. “Uncle, this water is actually warm!”
“Really?” Old Liu ran over and felt it too. It was warm. “Amazing!”
“In order not to let the fish freeze to death, the water is kept at a constant temperature throughout the year. There is electric heating in the pond so the water is warm,” the maid explained patiently.
Liu Zhuang blinked his eyes while listening to the maid and thought to himself that this Ling Family really was something. He wanted to play with the fish in the water, but Old Liu pulled him back.
“What’s wrong?”
“You forgot what I said to you? You have to look dignified!” Old Liu whispered.
Liu Zhuang realized that he had just lost his composure. He cleared his throat and stood up straight, no longer looking at the fish in the water.
The maid grinned and continued walking.
Soon, they made it inside the house. If the three of them were shocked when they saw the courtyard outside, when they walked into the house, they must have simply reached the peak of their lives!
Standing at the door, they saw the luxurious decorations of the house, the high-end antique furnishing, and the servants who were busy working. This was lke something straight out of a TV show.
Liu Zhuang pulled on the sleeves of Old Liu. “Uncle, sister Fen is actually a rich wife here?”
Old Liu nodded, “Yes, that’s right…”
“Uncle, sister Fen has really made it big!”
Old Liu nodded again. “That’s right…”
At this moment, Old Liu was over the moon. He thought that his daughter would rot at home because no one wanted her. Beyond everyone’s wildest dream, all the stars had aligned above his family, and the undesirable spinster Liu Fen had risen like a phoenix!
The maid brought the three of them to the living room and asked them sit on the sofa. “Please wait here. Miss Ling will be here soon.”
Old Liu noticed that the maid had only mentioned Miss Ling so far and not once mention his daughter. So, he asked directly, “Where is my daughter Liu Fen?”
The maid shook her head. “She is not at home right now.”
“Not at home? Where did she go?” Old Liu asked. He had mentioned to Liu Fen before that he had wanted to come visit the Ling Family some time, and Liu Fen had agreed. But they did not talk about exactly when.
Old Liu found a few day’s free time and thought they would come for a visit. Since Liu Fen had previously agreed, he didn’t think calling ahead was necessary. So they just showed up without notice.
“I don’t know,” the maid replied. She really didn’t know where Liu Fen was at the moment. “But she should be with Madame Ling.”
Madame Ling had left early in the morning to find Liu Fen, and everybody in the morning shift knew.
When he heard that his daughter was with Madame Ling, Old Liu smiled and nodded. It was nothing out of the ordinary for a daughter and mother-in-law to spend time together. Besides, this maid was just a servant, and it was normal that she wouldn’t know where the masters were.
“When is Miss Ling coming?” Liu Zhuang became impatient.
The maid looked upstairs. “Oh, Miss Ling is coming down now.”
Liu Zhuang followed the maid’s gaze and was stunned by what he saw.
The woman on the stairs was wearing a casual black dress with her hair down. Her face was delicate and beautiful, and her figure was curvy.
Liu Zhuang watched Ling Tiany slowly descend from the stairs, and his jaws had fallen on the floor.
“Uncle… This woman is so beautiful…”
The gates opened and the maid led the three people of the Liu family straight inside the house.
