The Princess Changze did not wait for Grand Madam to speak, he stood up and said: "Since that is the case, then I will have to trouble you to bring me there!"

Grand Madam did not retort, but instead, he could not help but clench his handkerchief tightly. What exactly was Princess Changze thinking? Could it be that he wanted to be on good terms with the fifth branch? Lin Shu's lowly hoof knew how to read people's eyes, Princess Changze's words had just surfaced, she had rushed out in such a hurry, he had truly never seen the world before.

In fact, she was even more anxious than Lin Shu to please Princess Changze.

Along the way, Lin Shu brought along Princess Changze as she walked toward the Fanghua Garden. The current Princess Changze was no longer as arrogant and arrogant as he had been in his previous life, but she patiently asked Lin Shu what books she read and how she spent her time using them. In the end, she didn't forget to say, "... I heard that your father's calligraphy was really good, so I guess Fourth Miss's calligraphy must also be good! "

She couldn't hide the pride on Princess Changze's face, which meant that she couldn't hide it any longer. She smiled and said, "I'm still young, so I don't have much strength, so my words are naturally less than a tenth of my father's. Furthermore, my father studied everyone's calligraphy, while I practice Little Kai-ju.

Her words made Princess Changze feel more at ease, it was not as if her daughter did not have any Cauldron Books, but Lin Shu did not write on the side of Lin Pei, could it be that the relationship between the mother and daughter of the Madam Lian and Lin Pei was also ordinary?

Thinking about what Lin Pei had said to her, he was not lying to him.

The happiness on her face couldn't escape the corner of Lin Shu's eyes. Even if Lin Shu was an idiot, she could guess what it was.

Lin Shu felt that she could no longer laugh. Just as she stepped into the Fanghua Garden gate, she saw her mother who had just received news of him hurriedly walking out.

When she was at the Yangzhou, she had at most seen the ladies of the Palace. But that lady at the Palace Chief's house in the Yangzhou had relied on the fact that she was a lady from a scholar's house, so she did not care much about her, she was also a tactful person. Others might not like her, but she would naturally not rush forward to meet her.

After the news that she was going to be married into the Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion was spread out, that girl from the Palace Chief's house in Yangzhou would hand over a card to her every few days, yet she didn't go even once …

Just as Madam Lian walked down the stairs and was about to kneel down and greet her, Lin Shu stepped forward to support her. She pulled her arm and chuckled: "Mother, Princess Changze knows that you're not well and has come to visit you. Let us invite Princess Changze in together!" From the words, it seemed that the Madam Lian was more honorable than the Princess Changze.

Although Madam Lian secretly blamed Lin Shu for not knowing etiquette, she still invited him in.

Madam Lian really thought that Princess Changze was here for the chrysanthemum, and had chatted with Princess Changze about it for a while. On the other hand, Princess Changze was not talking at all, and could not help but look around.

~ Is this the place where Abel and the Madam Lian are married? However, on top of the table was a gold-plated vase that looked as if it was made of gold. On the wall there was also a map of a child who had loose money, and the aura of a merchant coming from all over the place, how could Abel like it …

Madam Lian was also a smart person. Seeing that Princess Changze was not in the mood to exchange greetings with her, she ordered Peony to bring the pearl flowers. "... I heard Second Sister-in-law say that Princess Changze likes pearl flowers, and that these pearl flowers were all sent over from the Yangzhou by my brother, trying to see if anyone could enter his eyes. If Princess Changze doesn't like them, I will write to ask my brother to send some more over. "

Princess Changze only replied with an "En", he did not say a proper answer, but his gaze was fixated on the embroidery screen behind Madam Lian.

Madam Lian turned around and looked, then smiled: "This embroidery screen is still the same as when Old Duke Master died. Old Master and I intended to give Old Duke Master a birthday present, but after that, Eldest Sister-in-Law also embroidered a screen and gave it to him. This screen will not be good for Old Duke Master, thus we left him in my room."

The words were personally written by Lin Pei. Originally, Lin Pei meant that Old Duke Master would like her as his daughter-in-law and write the book himself, so she would personally embroider it and give it to Old Duke Master as a gift. However, at that time, she and Lin Pei already had a close relationship with each other and had just received the gift of Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion.

Her embroidery skills were not that good.

Princess Changze did not know the truth, and only felt that his heart was at odds with his, his expression became even more ugly, she was naturally able to recognize the words' Abel ', "Seems like Master Lin is very good to Fifth Madam?"

Madam Lian did not know how to reply. If they had agreed on it, then it would be speaking nonsense, but if they had not said it correctly, it would only be losing face for Lin Pei and Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion …

Lin Shu said with a smile, "Why did Princess Changze ask about this? It's no wonder that Second Aunt kept praising me before, saying that Princess Changze had a kind personality and got along well with everyone. Now that I've met my mother, it was like I got to know her at first sight, and treated her as my close friend. " Otherwise, how could he only ask what his best friend asked?

This time, Princess Changze regained his senses, "It was actually Second Madam who held me up."

As she said this, she seemed to have sensed something and actually began to explain. "I only felt that it was good to see you, so I asked a few more questions."

It was the first time that they had met. Even if Madam Lian wanted to find a topic to discuss, she could not stop the Princess Changze from being distracted. After saying a few words, the Princess Changze took his leave.

But Madam Lian didn't forget to ask Peony to bring out the three pots of Inulin to Princess Changze.

Lin Shu clearly saw that when the palace maids behind Princess Changze ordered the palace girls to accept the Inulin, they had smiles on their faces. Was she laughing at her mother's foolishness? If her mother was from the Second Madam, she would definitely have been able to detect some clues from what she had just said. She had never experienced the love between a man and woman, so how could he feel her jealousy?

After the Princess Changze left, he let out a long breath. He looked even more tired than if he had read more than ten books, "... I keep having the feeling that this Princess Changze is strange, and doesn't seem like the kind of person that your Second Aunt is talking about. Sister Shu, stay away from her. "

If he was truly a kind person, or someone who was filial to his elders, he wouldn't still be unmarried until now.

The stone in Lin Shu's heart had been lowered by half, and the remaining half was left with Actinin Qin.

Just now, she took advantage of the time it took for her to go out and grab the snacks, and had already instructed Actinin Qin to take action later.

Currently, Actinin Qin was secretly following the Princess Changze.

Lin Shu nodded her head obediently, and said softly: "Mother, don't worry, I know what my limits are. Second Aunt and Princess Changze are on good terms, we all know what kind of plans they have, it's just that I am not as ambitious as them, I just want to stay by your side."

When Madam Lian heard this, her eyes were full of smiles, and she hugged Lin Shu tightly, "She really is a sensible child … "Forget it, don't stay here anymore. Hurry up and go out. Be careful or else your grandmother won't be able to see you and will be anxious." Her daughter wanted to be by her side all her life to filial piety, but all she wanted was for her daughter to find a good marriage.

However, Lin Shu had to speak with Madam Lian. She knew that her mother was suffering. If she did not accompany her mother, then wouldn't it be even more bitter?

After talking for a while, she then raised her head and looked over to Actinin Qin: "Mother, I should leave. If I don't leave now, I'm afraid third sister will come looking for me."

Madam Lian laughed: "Let's go, be careful on the road."

Lin Shu lifted her skirt and walked out. Sure enough, she saw that Actinin Qin's expression was not right, and after looking around for a bit, she saw that there was no one around, and then she said softly: "Servant, servant …" Seeing that Princess Changze seems to be walking towards the old master's study, do you think that she doesn't know the way? "

"The Princess Changze doesn't know the way? I am afraid that when the maids and wives of Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion saw her dressing up, they would wish that they could lure her over personally. I am afraid that she had already planned to head over to the study room from the very beginning! " Lin Shu sneered, then walked towards the direction of the study room. "Come, let's go take a look."

Actinin Qin pulled on her sleeve and said softly: "Miss, you, what do you mean by this? Why can't this servant understand? Could it be that between Master and Princess Changze … "

The more she said it, the more she felt afraid to say it. She felt as if her tongue no longer belonged to herself. "If that's really the case, then you can't go over there."

Lin Shu held her hand and softly said: "Actinin Qin, you keep saying that Mother is a benefactor and even telling you when Mother took your life, yet you still won't bat an eye! Just that, do you think that with Princess Changze's character, you will let Mother go in the future? "Mother is the daughter of a businessman. There aren't even people I know in the capital, much less her backer. She can only rely on me now, and only by knowing what's going on will I be able to plan ahead and protect Mother …"

Actinin Qin slowly released her hand. Although his voice was low, it was firm. "Then, then this servant will accompany you."

Lin Shu nodded, and the two of them headed towards the direction of the small study room.

The Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion were divided into inner and outer court. Lin Pei had a study in the outer court and there was also a small study in the inner court. Usually, there would be people watching over them, but today, there was not a single person inside.

Lin Shu ordered Actinin Qin to stand guard under a big tree outside the study while she herself walked down the corridor with her back hunched over. The master and servant had already thought of an excuse, and if Actinin Qin saw someone coming over, he would ask the person who had come to see him, Fifth Master, to pay respects to Fifth Master.

Step by step, they walked closer to the study hall, and Lin Pei's enraged voice came out from within the room. Aren't you being a little too bold? Do you know where this is? What if the matter between us were to be discovered? There are a lot of inner members who have come today. Are you only happy when you see that my reputation has been ruined? "
