Time Travel and Love

Hearing this, Li was somewhat unsure how to respond. Her upbringing had taught her to answer elders without leaving them speechless, but her mind told her she didn't know what to say. Who had ever seen a woman's family run by her future mother-in-law before she even married? This...

The hall was so quiet that one could hear a needle in a needle. Just as they were speechless, a servant announced that the prince, princess, second master, and second wife had arrived. Chu Qingmeng was startled and tried to hide, but it was too late. The group had already arrived at the main hall door. When the door opened, Chu Qingmeng quickly covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief. A cool breeze rushed into the hall, and Chu Qingmeng couldn't help but shiver. Just as he was about to bow, he saw the princess staring at him with tearful eyes and said in a trembling voice, "My son, but you?"

Chu Qingmeng took off the handkerchief and nodded, "Greetings to the princess."

The princess took a few steps forward, pulled Chu Qingmeng up, and looked at him carefully, choking out a sob, "Where have you been all these years?"

Chu Qingmeng was puzzled by the princess's attitude. She didn't think she was truly worried. Little did she know that, ever since she learned she'd risked her life to rescue Mo Chenfeng from the Yue clan camp, the princess had treated her like her own daughter. And when she learned it was Mo Chenfeng who had caused her disappearance, she felt even more guilty. Consequently, she hadn't taken the subsequent incident with Mo Liujin seriously. How many of the Mo family members hadn't received Chu Qingmeng's kindness? Li and Xu were equally surprised. They'd also paid their respects to the princess before them. While the princess had never been difficult with her daughters-in-law, she'd always been indifferent. They hadn't expected her to feel so deeply for her own mother-in-law. She'd actually addressed them as "my daughter." It made sense, then, that her mother had previously mentioned that the princess was the steward of Princess Anning's residence. With such doting care, the princess naturally didn't need to worry about stewardship. As the group watched the princess weep, the grandfather and grandson practicing martial arts in the courtyard arrived upon hearing the news, bringing a sudden buzz to the hall.

After everyone exchanged greetings, Mo Chenfeng scolded Mo Liujin for not telling them about Qingmeng's return. Mo Liujin felt a little wronged, but he could only take the blame and repeatedly apologize to Mo Chenfeng. Chu Qingmeng stopped him, saying, "Uncle, no, Your Highness, it was me who stopped him from telling. After all, this matter is too mysterious and not everyone can accept it. I can't explain it with my face alone. I was afraid of being mistaken for a monster, so I wouldn't let Liujin tell them." Then she explained her experience on the mountain.

Mu Lingxue wasn't too surprised. From the moment she saw the formation beneath Chu Qingmeng's feet, she knew this must be something mysterious. So, she wasn't curious about her face, but how she got back. She asked, "Qingmeng, tell me, what method did you use to make your master collapse?"

Chu Qingmeng glared at her, "No! You don't want to know!"

Mu Lingxue was puzzled. "I want to know."

"Then let's talk about it in private when we have time!" Chu Qingmeng continued to glare at her.

Mu Lingxue finally realized, "Is this reason something that can't be said in front of everyone?" It seemed this guy had come up with some awful idea again! She covered her mouth and chuckled. Meanwhile, Mo Liuyuan naturally figured out why he had suddenly refused to drink when he was drinking with Mo Liujin a few days ago. It turned out that Qing Meng had returned.

After the pleasantries, Chu Qingmeng also asked the prince and princess not to tell anyone about her return, and continued to claim that she was recuperating in the border town and would return to the border town with Mo Liujin after the New Year. Mo Chenfeng then remembered the purpose of his trip and said to Mo Liujin and his father and son, "Liujin, the teacher I mentioned earlier has been chosen, but now that the teacher has opened a school and refuses to teach again, why not send Zexun, Zechuan, and the others there instead?"

"Father makes the decision." Mo Liujin replied.

Mo Chenfeng looked at Mo Liujin with satisfaction. In fact, he loved him the most among his sons. Although he was very angry about the incident between Chu Qingmeng and Mu Lingxue, after the incident, he was still the same as before, and Mo Chenfeng's anger subsided. A few people were talking in front of him. Chu Qingmeng and Mu Lingxue were secretly poking and scratching each other. In the end, the two of them sneaked out. However, the princess looked at the two people with a smile and loving eyes as they ran away. Li and Xu's surprise reached its peak today. They just learned that the princess doted on her mother-in-law, but they didn't expect her to dote on her to such an extent. Everyone gossiped about her sneaking out. Such a disrespectful thing, but the princess not only didn't punish her, but also watched her run away with a smile on her face.

After a while, the group of people in the hall finished chatting, and the two people outside the hall also finished chatting, and made an appointment to have a drink together in the evening. Chu Qingmeng was so happy, finally there was something happy!

"Send it off to my father and mother." Mo Liujin bowed and said goodbye.

"Send it to the prince and princess." Chu Qingmeng smiled happily. Finally, there was someone to drink with! Mo Liujin looked at her and said helplessly, "Call me father and mother."

What? Chu Qingmeng was stunned for a moment, and Mo Liujin gestured for her to scream. The two exchanged glances for a long time, and Chu Qingmeng had no choice but to surrender, "Send my father and mother."

The princess was visibly happy when she heard this, and Mo Chenfeng nodded. The two of them then took Mo Liuyuan and his wife back to the palace.
