No wonder aunt always said that you're short-sighted. You've only seen Sister Lian suffer, but why didn't you think of that when she was enjoying her life?" Even if you've suffered a little now, you will still have a good reputation when talking about marriage in the future. Furthermore, that rearing mama might have a good relationship with the Second Madam, but for the sake of the Grand Matriarch, how would she dare to make things difficult for you in the future? "I suspect that if word of this got out, the rearing mama would actually relax a bit for Miss Lian.

However, Lin Hui curled her lips, "Don't tell me you're talking about that mama in charge. My mother saw that there's a mama beside Lian Jieer, and she also wanted to invite a mama in charge of my affairs from the palace. Luckily, I brought my father out and said a few words together, causing my mother to be relieved, but my mother said that if I make another mistake here, it would be useless to ask for forgiveness anymore."

Saying that, she paused before continuing, "My mother always says that the Aunt Er wants to curry favor with the Princess Changze, and even more so waiting for the Princess Changze to come. If she wants me to show my face in front of the Princess Changze, it would be best if I can gain the favor of the Princess Changze. "Say, do you think our family is lacking in wealth and glory?"

She was a girl who had grown up in a jar of honey, but she didn't understand that the Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion was nothing more than a piece of gold and jade.

Even though her father was a dukedom, she had been mediocre all these years. Although her mother came from the Kong family, the number one sect in Jinling, and had several imperial masters as her ancestors, the Kong family was slightly stronger than the Palace in the capital. They were not even close to the Duke Andong Palace, let alone the first-class National Duke Ning Palace.

She did not understand these things, but First Madam did.

Lin Shu laughed, "The wealth that you speak of is different from the wealth in the eyes of the First Aunt, the wealth of the imperial family is like the fortune of the heavens, I am afraid that it is much stronger than our family …"

Actually, according to Lin Hui's identity, marrying a prince was enough, but her personality was too innocent. In his previous life, Grand Madam originally wanted to let Lin Hui enter the palace, but First Madam and her elder sister Lin Jia disagreed, so he let this matter go.

Thinking about it, Lin Shu started to have a good impression of First Madam, she was a person with a very high opinion of herself, although she normally looked down on this and that, but honestly, if others did not provoke her, she would not take the initiative to harm them.

It was just that whether the Second Madam stepped on the First Madam openly or secretly, how could the First Madam endure it?

When it came to the chrysanthemum feast, it was rare for the First Madam to get close to him. Relying on her identity as the wife of the Zhong Hou, she pulled her along and talked to them to build a relationship with her. If one thought carefully, the few wives she chose to befriend were all people with outstanding youths in her family.

When Second Madam saw this, he felt contempt and could only turn his head to await the arrival of the Princess Changze.

Although her daughter was not the first daughter of Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion, her figure and appearance was definitely much better than Lin Hui. She looked down on the youths.

It was very lively in the garden, with the Grand Madam sitting at the head of the table. It was also a rare occasion for them to be in high spirits as they chatted with each other, "... I didn't expect that the few pots of chrysanthemums in our house would catch everyone's attention. If the big fellow likes it, when the chrysanthemum feast is over, he will immediately move all the chrysanthemums back, and I promise you that this old woman will not say anything. "

One of the women said with a smile: "What did Grand Madam say? Do you think we're bandits? If I bring all these chrysanthemums back, how will I be able to look at you using your Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion?! "

Lin Shu remembered that the woman was the same woman who had went to the National Duke Ning at the National Duke Ning Palace to set up the chrysanthemum feast. Later on, she heard from Lin Hui that this woman was the first wife of the Elder Zhang.

Grand Madam was very happy when he heard this, "Look at what you've said. When your mother-in-law was still alive, he had often praised me that it was because of the ancestors that he had helped her ancestors to bring a good daughter-in-law like you. Now, it seems like he can even defeat my daughter-in-laws …"

When Zhang Eldest Wife heard this, he flattered them once again, praising almost everyone present.

Even Lin Shu who had lived for two lifetimes thought that this Eldest Wife was an exceptional person after hearing this, but the little girl beside her was quiet and elegant. After hearing what her mother had said, she could only suppress his laughter.

Seeing that Lin Shu was staring at her, the young lady walked over and said softly: "I am Zhang Yuanqing, what is your name?"

Zhang Yuanqing?

Lin Shu felt that this name was extremely familiar, after thinking about it carefully, her expression changed a little, but at the next moment she became more alert, "My name is Lin Shu, I'm a Fourth Miss of the Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion, you can call me Sister Shu."

In her previous life, Zhang Yuanqing's background was extremely pitiful. Even if she spent her days in the Duke Chengan Palace, she had more or less heard some news.

Zhang Yuanqing pursed his lips and laughed, then said: "Seeing that you are half a head shorter than me, you must be a bit younger than me … Do you also find my mother's words very interesting? She's always been like this at home, and my father often said that she must have been a parrot in her previous life. She never stopped talking all day, and even when she was in front of my grandfather, she never stopped talking.

But with a mother like Eldest Wife, I'm afraid our family will be very lively and happy all day. "Su Yun said with a smile. Lin Shu said this with sincerity.

Zhang Yuanqing pursed his lips and laughed, but did not refute him.

On the other hand, Lin Hui, who was not willing to hear this from him, couldn't help but come over and say: "… My mother keeps on talking about how bad it is to get married, but I feel that getting married is not bad, just like how Zhang Eldest Wife does. He can say whatever he wants, but all these noble ladies treat me as a virtuous and virtuous lady, and it is good to be cautious, but I feel that it is not satisfying at all, so I might as well do whatever I want! "

Zhang Yuanqing looked at Lin Hui, "This is …"

Lin Shu answered, "This is my third cousin, she's my First Uncle's daughter."

Zhang Yuanqing smiled and greeted Lin Hui.

Lin Shu started to tease Lin Hui, "What's wrong, you're already thinking of marrying someone at such a young age, don't tell me you already have a lover?"

The usually carefree Lin Hui actually blushed, and pinched Lin Shu through her clothes, and said softly: "What nonsense are you spouting? Be careful that I tell Grandmother to punish you! "

"I was just casually asking, why is third sister so nervous?" Lin Shu found it more and more interesting.

For a moment, the three girls burst into laughter.

As for Lin Qian, she chose the girls from noble families and dragged them to the garden, wishing that they could use all of her skills.

Lin Shu also knew that the master of her household was supposed to bring Zhang Yuanqing to take a look around. It was just that the Princess Changze had not appeared yet, so she did not have the mood to go and admire the flowers in the garden.

Actually, all the people in the courtyard were looking forward to the arrival of the Princess Changze.

In just a quarter of an hour, Princess Changze arrived late, so he came and sat by Grand Madam's side, causing Zhang Eldest Wife to laugh and make fun of him: "In a while, Princess Changze will have to punish himself with three cups at lunch, everyone come here to enjoy the Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion and enjoy the flowers, I never thought that you would come so late, you really made us look forward to seeing you!"

Princess Changze laughed, but there was no happiness on his face, "I will drink these three glasses of wine."

After saying that, she ignored the Second Madam's obvious intention to follow his, and only exchanged a few words with him. Finally, she said directly: "I came here today to take a look at Grand Madam, and secondly, to see Fifth Madam, to look for her and ask for a few pearls and flowers. I said that the Happy Pearl Flower over at the Yangzhou is much better looking than those in the capital, and although each pearl is not big, it is extremely exquisite and exquisite.

After hearing that, Lin Shu felt like she was facing a great enemy, as though she was talking to Lin Hui and Zhang Yuanqing, but her gaze was fixated on the Princess Changze.

Grand Madam's smile did not waver, "Princess Changze is too polite. If you like pearl flowers, I'll send someone to get them from Fifth Master's wife then …"

"How can you not ask others for things and not greet the master?" The reason why Princess Changze was here was because of Madam Lian, so now she smiled and said: "Is it not convenient for Fifth Madam's side?"

Grand Madam hurriedly said: "It's not that it's inconvenient, it's just that Fifth Master's wife's body is never very good. I'm afraid that she might pass on his illness to you."

On the other hand, she was an intelligent girl. Ever since she had married into the Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion, she had always referred to him as "Madam Lian" and "it's not good", but the Madam Lian had never even seen anyone else, so wouldn't she just call him whatever she said?

Last time when Second Madam came back, he told her that he wanted to see his, and she rejected him without thinking, thinking that Madam Lian's identity was not to be looked down upon, let alone dealing with such a noble person like Princess Changze, what if he said something wrong and made Princess Changze hate him?

Who knew that Princess Changze would take the chance and say, "Since Fifth Madam's health is not good, then I will go take a look even more. Whether or not Fifth Madam is a peerless beauty and wants to hide behind after marrying into the, Grand Madam is not even willing to let us have a look?"

Even the usually resolute Grand Madam was a little hesitant.

Lin Shu could tell that the meaning of Princess Changze's words were directed at his mother, and there was no way she could avoid them, so she stood up and said: "Since the princess wants to go take a look at my mother, then why don't I help her lead the way!"

Rather than letting the Grand Madam send people to bring the Princess Changze to the Fanghua Garden, it would be better forhisr to go himself. Since he could find out what the Princess Changze and her mother had said, she could find out how to proceed.
