Soon, her frown relaxed without leaving any trace.

　　According to the original owner’s habit, she turned sideways and let her in.

　　This person is the only servant in the entire Lu residence who can talk to the original owner.

　　She took a special leave yesterday, and when she came today——

　　I heard that the mistress’ plan to “starve the young master for another five days” failed, and that her husband also injured her waist.

　　She went upstairs with the bird’s nest in her hands!

　　Come to bring care, comfort… and new strategies to the lady.

　　That’s right.

　　After the young master missed the exam and got into a fight, it was Lin An who came up with the “education” method for the original owner.

　　She said:

　　”Starve the young master for three days first. If he doesn’t admit his mistake, starve him for another five days!”

　　”Until he admits his mistake…”

　　“That’s how I educate my own children.”

　　The original owner believed it.

　　It’s because Lin An’s children, who were brought up by her, have good grades, are polite and well-behaved.

　　In fact, Lin An had done a lot of things like this before.

　　However, in the past, although the original owner noticed that something was wrong, she did not take it to heart due to her own reasons.

　　but–

　　After all, Lin An was the culprit who led the original owner to mistreat her son.

　　So, the first time Qin Qingqing saw Lin An, she frowned!

　　Frowning fiercely!

　　But–

　　She didn’t want to start an argument at the bedroom door.

　　Just like the original owner did before, she let her in without making a sound…

　　Lin An didn’t notice anything unusual about her wife.

　　She simply put the tray on the table and handed the bird’s nest to the lady personally; she also looked at the lady’s injured waist with great concern.

　　She sighed softly.

　　”Ma’am, it’s all my fault.”

　　“I didn’t expect…”

　　”The young master was absent from the exam and fought, which was obviously wrong; but he was still so stubborn and refused to admit his mistake.”

　　”As a result, your waist was injured by your husband.”

　　Qin Qingqing paused as she was about to take the bird’s nest.

　　He looked up at Lin An who was apologizing sincerely…

　　This was more like adding fuel to the fire than an apology.

　　Did Lin An think that she would be even more dissatisfied with the young master like the original owner?

　　Unfortunately, she is not the original owner.

　　so……

　　She was no longer in a hurry to receive the bird’s nest.

　　Instead, she flashed in the air and raised her hand; with the help of the sunlight coming in from the window, she admired the exquisite manicure on her hand.

　　”Mmm, it’s so beautiful…”

　　”Right?”

　　Qin smiled lightly and winked at Lin An.

　　Lin An was stunned, not knowing what was going on.

　　But she still gave a sly smile and agreed with her wife:

　　“Yes, yes.”

　　So, madam, would you like to take the bird’s nest from my hand first?

　　Lin An shouted in her heart!

　　The lady herself, however, did not do anything else except “looking at the manicure”.

　　Lin An waited for another half a day.

　　The bird’s nest has not been taken away by the lady yet…

　　Now, she held the bird’s nest as if she was holding a hot potato.

　　It’s really hot!

　　The bird’s nest is freshly cooked by the chef and served in a small white cup.

　　And Lin An?

　　She was in a hurry to show her courtesy to the lady, so she didn’t use a tray and just picked up the bird’s nest cup with her bare hands.

　　But–

　　Now, the lady neither told her to put down the cup nor came to take her cup, just leaving her alone.

　　For a moment, she did not dare to act rashly.

　　The temperature of her fingertips was getting hotter and hotter; her arms also gradually began to ache… Lin An felt extremely sore!

　　Her hands holding the bird’s nest cup began to tremble!

　　The lady then finished admiring her own manicure.

　　Bow your head…

　　Then I saw Lin An’s hand holding the bird’s nest cup.

　　She sighed helplessly.

　　”Put it down.”

　　”!”

　　Lin An threw the bird’s nest cup back into the tray with a “bang” and directly… knocked over the small box on the corner of the table.

　　But–

　　She was in no mood to pick up boxes right now!

　　The lady was reluctant to take the cup, and she burned her hand. She had to get some “medical expenses” from the lady!

　　The sky-high medical bills!

　　In the past, she had used this trick many times to fleece the lady.

　　When she raised her eyes again, she had already hidden the shrewdness in her eyes.

　　She put on a very aggrieved face, and raised her slightly red fingertips very deliberately——

　　”lady……”

　　”You were so absorbed in your manicure that you may not have noticed that my hands were burned…”

　　“I noticed that.”

　　Qin Qingqing spoke very calmly.

　　She lowered her eyes again, looked at the small box thrown on the ground by Lin An for a few seconds, and then looked away as if nothing had happened.

　　”Um?”

　　Lin An was stunned, and all the following words were stuck in her throat.

　　Then I heard Qin Qingqing speak again——

　　”I noticed that your hands were slightly red, and I also noticed that your arms were shaking from holding the cup for so long.”

　　”But these…”

　　”That’s what I want you to feel, too.”

　　”?”

　　What do you feel?

　　Lin An’s face turned dark instantly!

　　She felt that the lady was simply teasing her!

　　But Qin Qingqing spoke again.

　　She said:

　　”Hmm? With that expression on your face…you don’t think I’m kidding you, do you?”

　　”You think too much.”

　　”You are my closest servant…”

　　”That……”

　　Lin An originally wanted to question his wife: Why did she let her watch her get burned? Why did she let her stand holding the cup for so long? !

　　But–

　　Her words were interrupted by Qin Qingqing.

　　Qin Qingqing sighed helplessly, and then spoke earnestly.

　　“Hey…”

　　”I just want you to experience what it feels like when a child is physically punished or mistreated.”

　　”You must have felt very wronged just now, right?”

　　”When your child encounters this, so does he.”

　　”It must be very painful and sad, right?”

　　”So do your children.”

　　”so……”

　　”It must be the same when our family leaves the wild.”

　　Qin Qingqing said this and paused.

　　”He missed the exam this time to fight, right?”

　　”But he used to be kind, obedient and a good kid… So, I believe there is a reason why he is like this.”

　　Qin Qingqing closed her eyes and praised her adopted son.

　　Lin An’s lips twitched when she heard this…

　　But she remained calm and said, “Then, after my injury heals, I will investigate the reasons why he missed the exam and fought, and then prescribe the right medicine…”

　　”Bang–“

　　The door was suddenly opened from the outside.

　　It’s Lu Liye.

　　”?”
