This was indeed true for all of them. This was true even for Grand Madam, who viewed the reputation of Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion as more important than his life.

Grand Madam had wished for Lin Pei for several days, but Lin Pei didn't return his Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion at all.

She prayed in front of the Buddha for the prosperity of her Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion and for her children and grandchildren.

Lin Pei had finally returned on the evening of the tenth day. After changing his clothes, he went straight to the Green Pine Academy and at this time, Grand Madam was still reciting scriptures in the Little Buddha Hall. After hearing Maid's voice, he only sneered, "He's willing to come back too? I really don't know what kind of knockout medicine the Princess Changze gave him! "

Nanny Chen went forward and helped him up, and said softly: "Why do you think this is necessary? When the Fourth Miss told you this matter, this servant said that I wanted you to send someone to bring the Fifth Master back. You don't have to say it directly, why are you so angry now? "

"I would like to hear what he has to say today!" Rather than say that Grand Madam was able to hold his composure, it would be more accurate to say that he did not know what to do, which was why he kept dragging this matter out.

Within the side chamber, Lin Pei also knew that he had broken the rules, and now that he was standing there respectfully, he smiled when he saw Grand Madam enter.

Grand Madam didn't even look at him and directly walked past him. He only smelled the faint fragrance of the makeup on Yun Che's body and his expression seemed to become even more unsightly.

When the Grand Madam was seated, he took a sip of the tea and then said coldly: "It's not easy for us Assistant Minister Lin to remember the way back, I thought you didn't even know where your own home is! "I used to scold your second brother for being naughty, but now, I see that you're even worse than your second brother. No matter how much your second brother messes around, he won't be gone for so long like you!"

"Your son knows his wrongs!" Lin Pei smiled, and looked like he was in a good mood, "It's just that I have been too busy doing official business recently, didn't you always say that men should focus on the imperial government? Now that our son has yet to stand up for himself, and with all the hard work he has gone through over the years, entering the Cabinet shouldn't be impossible! "

This was something that the Grand Madam liked to hear, as the Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion had never left the pavilion elders in all these years. Why does he smell like makeup? "I know that you guys are very tired out socializing outside. It's normal for you guys to go to those despicable places to drink and listen to music, but beauty is the bane of your lives. You must remember this!"

"Originally, you only had Auntie Zhong by your side, and now that Auntie Zhong has done such a thing, you should have already picked two people by your side. I think it's good for Mulan to be by my side and have served me for quite a while now, her figure and personality are both excellent, so I won't feel wronged if I give her to you as an aunt!"

Lin Pei hurriedly rejected his offer. "Mulan is your first maid, so it's really unfair for you to send her to be my aunt. I don't need anyone to attend to my son's side now …"

"You don't need anyone else to serve you?" Or are you afraid that someone will be jealous and not dare to be served by others? " Grand Madam only felt that he was filled with rage, causing the tables to shake and echo. This was the first time she was ever angry at Lin Pei.

Nanny Chen hurriedly brought all the servants in the house away, she did not forget to close the door even before she left.

Lin Pei also felt that Grand Madam was very angry today, "Did Madam Lian anger you again?"

"You, Major General, jinx your dung on the heads of others! "You're the one I'm angry about!" Grand Madam panted a few breaths before saying: "That day, the things that you and Princess Changze said in your study at the chrysanthemum feast were clearly heard by everyone else. Otherwise, our reputation in the last hundred years of Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion would have been ruined by you! Ever since you got married, you only have Auntie Zhong as your concubine, and I often told your second brother that as his brother, he is inferior to you, but I never thought that you would not cause any trouble, and cause such a big thing! "

"The identity of this Princess Changze is nothing compared to the others. He's extremely noble. Even I know that the empress dowager dotes on her to the point that her eyes hurt. If she knew that all of you had done such an ugly thing, what would happen?" Princess Changze is the emperor's cousin, when this matter reaches the emperor, the emperor will definitely side with the Princess Changze. He will definitely think that you are the one who seduced the Princess Changze, and you should stand at the top of the imperial court? "

"If you took a fancy to another girl, that's fine too but as long as you like it, ten or eight of them can be carried into the mansion. You, how did you offend someone like that?" Princess Changze's reputation has never been good, even the empress doesn't take it seriously, you … You're completely muddled! "

Lin Pei had lived for twenty to thirty years, but this was the first time he had been scolded directly by someone, so he could not hide it anymore, "Since you know about this already, I do not plan on hiding it from you, and I do not wish to talk about the matter at the side, I only want to ask you one thing, have I done something that I have not done properly since I was young? "Since I dare to do such a thing, I will definitely not spread it. Don't worry, I have my own plans for this!"

"Do you have any plans? What are your plans? If you really planned it all out, then would Princess Changze come to our Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion? Would he go to Madam Lian? It is fortunate that Madam Lian is not a careful person, otherwise she would have noticed earlier that something was amiss! " "Then tell me what your plans are. Do you want to leave me, or do you want to divorce me? This Lian Family is not something that you can fool around with! "

This Princess Changze is no longer that gentle and gentle little girl from back then. In fact, Lin Pei did not expect that the Princess Changze would come knocking on his door, his mouth moved, but he still said: "Don't worry about this matter, don't worry, I will not spread it. Don't you think that the Madam Lian's background is too despicable? Is the identity of the Princess Changze more than enough to be your daughter-in-law? "

With that, he saw that the anger on Grand Madam's face had disappeared, he only said that he still had matters to attend to, and left the stage.

No matter how angry Grand Madam was, he could not chase him to the study room!

Lin Shu had sent Rui Zhi to stand guard at the second gate, and now that she knew that Lin Pei had returned, she was not surprised at all when she heard that Lin Pei had left the Green Pine Academy with hurried steps.

In his previous life, the relationship between the Grand Madam and Lin Pei was not very close, so it was likely that Lin Pei would not even listen to his words, but no matter what, it was still good for the current Grand Madam to be willing to express his attitude.

Thinking till this point, Lin Shu could only sigh, and raise her leg, wanting to go to the Fanghua Garden to talk to her mother. Each time, it was only when she was talking to her mother, that she would finally be able to relax a little.

Lin Shu had only just walked down the steps when Nanny Wei took her cape and followed with a smile: "Where is Miss going? This servant will accompany you! "

Actinin Qin walked up to receive the cape and smiled: "No need, mother will rest well in the courtyard!"

Nanny Wei was not such a diligent person, but now that she heard that Yao had returned to the Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion, she knew that the Lian Family would give some things to her son and sister, and during the evening, the Nanny Chen even sent someone to tell her that no matter where Fourth Miss went, she would follow him, especially when Fourth Miss was with him, she would not leave him for even a moment, "Fourth Miss is too courteous, you only have Actinin Qin to accompany you when you go out, I'm afraid that's not appropriate.

Lin Shu nodded her head, "Since Nanny Wei wants to follow, then follow me!" Nanny Wei was equivalent to her eyes and ears. She did not want to make Grand Madam unhappy because of such a small matter. After all, she still had to wait for Grand Madam to back her up.

She was only waiting for the Nanny Wei to go to the Fanghua Garden, but the expression on the face of the Madam Lian was not too good. Today, the Lian Family had sent a letter over, calculating the time, it was probably the letter that she had sent over to her brother's hands. This letter did not involve any mysterious matter, but other people were staring at them with hostility, causing her to feel uncomfortable.

However, Lin Shu felt that it was nothing. During this period of time, the Nanny Wei seemed to be on guard against her, as if she was used to it. When the came back today with the White Horse Institute for the holidays, the good gifts Uncle had given us also arrived. Mother had to instruct the little kitchen to make us more delicious foods, otherwise, I would not listen. "

The Madam Lian laughed and said, "You gluttonous little thing, you can just get the chef to bring the menu up for you to choose later. It was your Brother Yao who said that today, you want to eat a pot, but you want to eat a pot too?"

"Me? As long as I'm with you, I can eat anything!" Lin Shu held onto Madam Lian's arm, and smiled, "But if there were more crabs, that would be for the best. At this time, the crabs are the fattest, the moment I open its shell, it's filled to the brim with crab yolk.

Madam Lian tapped her forehead, and joked: "You really are gluttonous. I know you like to eat crabs, so the crabs have already been prepared for you, it's just a little bit, you can't eat too much. Last time, I heard from Actinin Qin that you ate three crabs here, and went back to shout out that your stomach is hurting …"

Yao Yao, who was standing at the doorway, couldn't even move his feet when he saw the scene in front of him.

It had only been two to three months since he had seen this girl. She seemed to have lost some of her weight and become taller, unlike her usual dignified and virtuous self. She pouted as she hung on her aunt's body, acting like a spoiled child. If this girl became his wife, would she act like this and act like a spoiled child?

Before, he had raised a snow-white pug at Yangzhou, so he would usually act like this. It was just that after the pug died, he felt sad for a long time.

If he married this little girl, wouldn't he be able to rub her head like he would rub a pug and poke her chubby face?
