The next day, Qin Longyun rose early from bed. The tax collection was not yet complete, and he had to preside over the Government Office, lest chaos ensue.
He ate a simple meal, then set aside his chopsticks.
Unexpectedly, for such a burly man, he was finicky. Without Ling'er to accompany him at meals, he found the food tasteless.
"Keep quiet, everyone. Let Ling'er rest well," Qin Longyun specifically ordered.
In Big Willow Village, Ling'er had played recklessly, and being solely responsible for steadying the carriage ride yesterday must have exhausted her.
ChunTao nodded, "Young Master, don't worry. I will take good care of our Miss."
With Qin Longyun's orders, the backyard of the Government Office was silent. Everyone tiptoed around, afraid of disturbing Madam's sweet dreams.
By the time Chen Yiling woke up, it was too late even for lunch.
"Miss, this is your favorite lily porridge," ChunTao said happily.
