Even if she was mentally prepared, when Lin Shu heard it with her own ears, she still paused.

Before she could react, Princess Changze's choked voice sounded out, "Abel, are you blaming me? If I don't use this method, how can I meet you? I know that because of the silly thing that happened with Tang Geer, you feel bad, and because of that, you have so many matters to attend to in the court, you can't even attend to me, but no matter how busy you are, you should at least reply with a letter! "

"All I've been thinking about these past few days is you. Even if I'm talking to Esteemed Empress Dowager, my thoughts are still of you. Sending out those ten letters or so is like a stone sinking into the ocean. How can I not be worried …" You kept telling me that you don't have any feelings for Madam Lian, but why are you writing words for her or the embroidery in her room? "I knew it. I knew you weren't that Abel long ago and would usually lie to me …"

As he spoke, the voice gradually became softer, and he could hear the sound of sobbing. It was clearly the voice of a young girl. Where was the usual haughtiness and nobility?

After Lin Pei heard this, his voice also softened, "That screen was a birthday present for father in the first place, how could it possibly give something to her personally? I only have you in my heart, if others don't know about it, how can you not know about it? If Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion back then wasn't so desperate, and if father had set a marriage for me like that, how would I have married a merchant's daughter? "

"You said that you're thinking about me, so why wouldn't I think about you?" Otherwise, how could they have dismissed the people around them and have a private meeting with you here? While they were blaming you on their mouths, did they push you away or something? "

In his previous life, when he saw Lin Pei repeatedly help his out of the siege of Princess Changze, in her heart, he still held some respect towards him. But now, it seems that all of this was dog shit, it was this man and another woman who had allied and killed his mother!

In this life, he still wanted to do this? Don't even think about it!

Lin Shu held onto her own palm tightly, she did not want to cry, but instead, she saw the Princess Changze poking Lin Pei's chest, his face had a blush, but he continued: If I knew that you had lied to me, I might not be able to find the Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion, and not see the Madam Lian, but your government is more important right? Did I say something in front of Grand Madam and Madam Lian? "Don't worry, I'm not the type of person who doesn't know his limits!"

"I know that you are not the eldest son of the Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion, and that you will be separated into your own groups after a hundred years. You scholars only want to enter the pavilion, but with me here, why are you doing this? "When the time comes, you'll have to wait for me to speak up for the emperor and Esteemed Empress Dowager. Are you afraid we won't be able to enter the pavilion?"

"I know that you'll think of everything for me, but I don't want to get too close to you, I just want to marry you into my family. I've been thinking about this for so many years, and on the day of my wedding, I even picked up Madam Lian's bridal gown, thinking about the way you look in it."

After saying that, he pulled Princess Changze closer, "It's just that the Madam Lian is not at fault right now, the five houses have become a mess because of Tang Geer, it's really unjustifiable for them to suddenly divorce. Chang Ze, at most wait for another year for me, I will definitely let you marry into Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion, at that time, I will repay all the debts I owe you all these years."

"Abel, I'll be waiting for you." Princess Changze only felt that the soreness in her eyes grew even stronger. Marrying Lin Pei was her long-cherished wish, and it was about to come true.

Lin Shu only felt her hair standing on end, she did not want to hear any more words from this dirty couple, so she quietly retreated.

Actinin Qin, who was standing not far from them, came forward to welcome them. With a anxious look on her face, she asked, "Miss, how is it?"

Lin Shu shook her head, she did not want to go over and wipe the corners of her eyes, but when she turned her head, her tears unconsciously fell. She had only taken a few steps when she grabbed onto Actinin Qin's hand and choked with sobs, "Actinin Qin, what do you think we should do? What do you think we should do? "

She had thought that with the power of her rebirth, she would be able to protect his mother from harm. But now, it seemed that she was too naive and wondered what kind of status did Princess Changze have? It would be as easy as stepping on ants to get rid of her and his mother! What tricks did Lin Pei use? If he really steeled his heart, how could his mother escape death …

Now she finally understood why her mother had suddenly passed away in her previous life. It must have been because of these two people!

Immediately, a sense of powerlessness surfaced in her heart. Lin Shu wanted to rush up to the Fanghua Garden and hug his mother and cry, she wanted to tell his mother that she couldn't die, but, what use was it?

A light drizzle floated in the sky as Lin Shu's plump shoulders trembled while crying.

Seeing that, Actinin Qin immediately pulled her into her embrace, her voice tinged with ridicule and sobs, "Miss, don't cry, Miss, don't be afraid, there is still a servant accompanying you to think of a solution …."

Even though it was a fine autumn rain, after a quarter of an hour, Lin Shu's clothes were still wet.

After crying for a while, she finally felt better. She slowly walked towards the hall, but after walking for a while, she suddenly changed her direction, "Let's go to Fanghua Garden."

But Actinin Qin panicked, "Miss, you …."

"I want to tell mother about this. Only I alone know that this is far from enough. I have to be careful even if I have to." Lin Shu's eyes were red and swollen, but her eyes were filled with determination, "I don't know what exactly they are planning, but I can roughly guess, Mother … She promised me she wouldn't leave me alone no matter what. "

While waiting for her to rush to the Fanghua Garden, Madam Lian was still reading the account book. When she heard the sound of footsteps, she raised his head and said with a smile: "How long has it been since you came back?"

This mother's heart would always be with her daughter. She remembered that her Sister Shu would wear a red ruby and a golden hairpin on her head. As soon as she walked, these red ruby and gold hairpins would ring, and as soon as she heard them, she knew that her daughter had returned.

But when she lifted her head, the smile froze on her face, "Why are you all wet? Also, why are these eyes red? But who bullied you? "

Lin Shu shook her head, and ordered the peonies to bring all the servants and wives in the house, and then sat down next to her mother.

He was originally filled with words, but now, he didn't know where to start.

held her hand and asked anxiously: "Sister Shu, what is going on?"

Lin Shu sniffed, then said: "Mother, if Father has a lover outside, what do you plan to do?"

"I thought it was something extraordinary!" "I've been married to your father for close to ten years, so I know in my heart that this marriage was just a transaction. Back then, your grandfather valued Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion as his backer, and your grandfather valued our Lian Family as his silver. Since it was a transaction, where did this true love come from?"

As she said that, she looked at Lin Shu and softly said: "Originally, I shouldn't have said these words in front of you. But now that you are older and more sensible, even if I don't tell you these things, you can guess at least … If your father really does have someone he likes, I will definitely tell your grandmother and bring her in. "

"You should also know your grandmother's character. Even if your father didn't say anything, she would still help him choose his opponent! Now that Tang Geer is so stupid, how can they just watch us die? As for who exactly they picked to enter, I don't care at all, but it's just that they pitied my Sister Shu and cried for a bit. "

At the end of his words, there was even a hint of faint ridicule. It could be seen that he really didn't care whether Lin Pei had any other women or not.

Lin Shu's mouth moved, she felt that it was extremely difficult to say, "Ruo, if this person was … Princess Changze? "

"What?" Madam Lian was stunned, she thought that the rumors were getting out of hand and she heard it herself, so she asked again, "What did you say?"

Lin Shu repeated what she had just said one word at a time.

However, Madam Lian said softly, "Sister Shu, these words cannot be randomly said …"

"That's true. I heard it myself when I went to the study room!" Lin Shu looked at his mother's half-dazed look and said softly, "If it was someone else, then it's fine. But what is the identity of the Princess Changze? I'm afraid that even if the palanquin was carried into the Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion, it would still be a lowly marriage, so how would there be a reason for it to be a concubine? Mother, I just don't know what to do, so I came to ask for your opinion. "

It was better for two people to think of a solution than for one.

After a long while, the Madam Lian finally regained her senses, and asked: "Just now when you were at the small study room, did anyone see you?"

Lin Shu shook her head, "That's true."

The Madam Lian heaved a sigh of relief and slowly said: "What can we do now? Your grandmother has always disliked me, but in the end, I was still your granddaughter's daughter-in-law when your grandfather was still alive. I was married into the clan using the Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion and the palanquin, if you really want to divorce me, then at least you have to give me a reason! "

"If they were to secretly do those dirty things, do they think that all of us from the Lian Family are dead? Your uncle is a merchant, that's true, but after so many years, I have known a few famous officials. Although this matter will not affect Princess Changze, but if it gets out of hand, your grandmother will definitely care about Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion's reputation, and even if your father truly had thoughts, she would probably not have agreed, so Sister Shu is not afraid.
