However, before Madam Lian had finished speaking, she was cut off by her, "Do you know what you're saying? Your nephew? If I remember correctly, your older brother's sons have already gotten married. Now, there's only Yao left? Previously, he did not harm enough Sis Hui'er, so why is the lady who has our Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion clinging onto unwilling to let go? "

It was not because she was worried about the Lian Family, but because when First Madam saw Lin Hui making a ruckus earlier, she had already secretly and clearly heard about the Lin Family's matters … Fortunately, she had suppressed this thought at that time.

Even though Madam Lian's temper had improved a lot in the past few years, she was finally no longer able to hold it in.

After a short while, the Maid outside heard the sound of the tea Gu dropping to the ground, followed by the loud voice of the Fifth Madam, and after a while, the Grand Madam's weak voice came out, although his voice was weak, but every sentence was very ruthless and accurate, and it was not clear who won.

Mulan panicked. "What are you guys doing here, each and every one of you?" Why aren't you calling the Fourth Miss over? If Fifth Madam gets angry like that, you guys will suffer too! "

She had also seen what kind of temper Fifth Madam had. Back then, when Fourth Miss pushed him into the water, Grand Madam merely gave him a small punishment, and now that Fifth Madam had come, it was as if he wanted to flip his Green Pine Academy upside down … Today, she didn't even dare to think about it.

When Lin Shu received the letter and came to the Green Pine Academy, there were no maids present at all, afraid that she would hear something that she shouldn't have heard.

Lin Shu thought that things were not good. When she walked in, she saw Grand Madam gasping for breath on the bed, while her mother was at the side crying.

In her two lives, this was the first time she had seen her mother like this.

She quickly walked up and whispered, "Mother, what is going on?"

Madam Lian shook off her hand, staggered forward a few steps, and said with a loud voice: "I … I have always treated you as an elder? Even if you don't get along with them on normal days, you are still respected. But you, how can you have the appearance of an elder? Or did you always think that I would have been able to enter Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion and that if not for our Lian Family giving us the two hundred thousand silver taels? If not for the fact that we sent money to the Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion like flowing water, would there still be a place for our Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion in the capital? "

"Don't think that just because you're a girl from an aristocratic family that you are born with a higher status than others. However, looking at the things that you've done, I feel very worried for you …" I didn't come here today to discuss it with you, I just came to let you know. "

After saying that, she grabbed Lin Shu's hand and left the Green Pine Academy without even turning her head back.

Lin Shu could be considered to have understood that this matter had something to do with her marriage. Just as she was about to ask what was going on, she turned around to see her mother trembling.

She had always remembered his mother's words. She didn't need to treat Grand Madam as her closest kin, as long as she gave him some face.

Madam Lian shook her head, her mouth moved, but no words came out.

Just like that, she held Lin Shu's hand and silently returned to the Fanghua Garden. After the peonies had washed her face with water, she turned her head to look at Lin Shu, "Sister Shu, were you frightened just now?"

Even if she had always been capable in front of outsiders, she had always been a loving mother in front of her daughter.

Lin Shu shook his head, "No, you're my mother, no matter what you say or do, you won't hurt me, what am I afraid of? I was just wondering how you could have made so much noise just now. Did Grandmother say something … "

Madam Lian's eyes immediately reddened again, "Your grandmother is really too much. She originally helped Princess Changze in the dark … But back then, how could she have done such a thing? "

Recalling the vicious words that Grand Madam had said a moment ago, she felt extremely uncomfortable in her heart, "Back then, it was obviously Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion that came to propose marriage, but why would she look down on our Lian Family? Even though your grandfather is a merchant, he is well-known even in the Yangzhou. Who would not give your grandfather some face? "But your grandmother actually mocked your grandfather …"

At that time, she only asked where her father had gone to, and her father said that he had gone out of the country to take care of some matters. At that time, she was still unhappy, after all, she was going to be married to the capital soon, and she didn't know when she would be able to come back … Now that the Grand Madam had spoken, she understood everything.

It was her father who went to the capital to plead with the Grand Madam. For Lian Family, for her, her father had even lowered himself in front of that old demoness … At that time, the news of her impending marriage to the capital's Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion had already spread throughout the entire Yangzhou, so who didn't say that his fate was good? If the news of his marriage being annulled by Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion were to spread, her reputation would probably go down the drain.

Lin Shu stepped forward, pinched her hand and softly said: "It's all in the past, it's all in the past... You still have me, so nothing will happen from now on. "

Madam Lian wanted to lean on her daughter's shoulder and cry. She didn't know when it started, but that headstrong and headstrong little girl had become so sensible …

Lin Shu could not help but console her, and finally, after waiting for her to calm Madam Lian down, Mu Lan's voice came from outside again, sounding a bit tearful, "Fifth Madam, Fourth Miss, Grand Madam... Grand Madam suffered a stroke. "

In fact, Grand Madam wasn't even able to speak due to anger when the two of them left. At that time, Nanny Chen hurriedly went forward to help him drink some medicine to rest, but Grand Madam couldn't even raise his hand.

At that time, the Nanny Chen had already rushed into the palace to invite the imperial physician. He had already informed both the main house and the second house of the arrival of the imperial physician, but had left out five rooms. Now that the physician had left, it would be too unreasonable not to notify the fifth house.

Fifth Madam was stunned, he subconsciously wanted to walk out, but was stopped by Lin Shu, "... At this time, you should not go to the Green Pine Academy.

The Madam Lian sat back down and sighed.

Lin Shu only knew that this matter was not over yet, so she thought that she still said: "Now that Grandmother's side has suffered a stroke, First Uncle and Second Uncle won't be able to say anything to you. They will definitely ruthlessly teach father a lesson … If Father says anything important to you at that time, you must not take it to heart. "

She was certain that Lin Pei did not dare to hit her mother. Even if Lin Pei had the guts, the hidden guards around the Fanghua Garden would not sit still and do nothing if they saw Lin Pei making a move.

"If you didn't mention your father today, I'm afraid you wouldn't even remember that I haven't seen him in three or four months." Madam Lian laughed bitterly. She thought back to when she had first met Lin Pei when she had just returned to her residence. Presumably, this man had been getting more and more obedient in his service, and his eyes were full of vigor. However, when his gaze landed on the mother and daughter pair's faces, it was as if he had eaten a fly. "Don't worry. When you were still young, it was unknown how many times your father got angry at me because of Auntie Zhong. I even endured it all those years ago? "Could it be that we won't be able to take it anymore?"

As she said that, she stroked the hair on Lin Shu's cheeks and said: "Moreover, I was indeed angered to the point that your grandmother got caught in the wind … Just now when she said those harsh words, I wasn't able to hear anything clearly. In the end, it was her who suffered a loss. "

Lin Shu couldn't help but let out a long sigh. "It would be best if you think like this …"

She knew that her mother was feeling terrible, and had been staying in the Fanghua Garden the entire time.

Thinking about it, it made sense, at this time, Lin Pei would probably be busy dealing with the servant by Wang Pei's side, as long as Grand Madam was still alive, she would not come back.

That night, Lin Shu slept beside her mother.

Waiting for the mother and daughter to both lie on the bed, Madam Lian said as she played with Lin Shu's quilt: "How old are you already and you still want to sleep next to me? "I wonder what I'll do after I get married in a few years." How could she not know that her daughter was worried about her?

Lin Shu leaned even closer to his mother, "I'll sleep with you. Sleep soundly."

Thinking about those days when she was placed under house arrest, the servant girls in the Duke Chengan Palace slacked off. When it came to winter, her cotton wool was so wet that it didn't look like anything. Who knows how many times she had been frozen awake … Today, he naturally felt at ease and at ease.

At first, it was unknown how many times she had looked through the account book and ordered peonies to be lit. She hurriedly went to Linglong Pavilion to look at her daughter's sleeping little face before returning, "Sister Shu, how about you marry Rao Geer?"

Initially, she and Lin Shu seemed to be discussing something when they said this, but now, it might as well be a plea.

"Mother, why did you say that again?" Lin Shu knew that she would not be able to escape from this, but she did not want to talk about it when his mother was in such a difficult situation, "It's getting late, let's go to bed early … Tomorrow morning, I still have to make a trip to the Green Pine Academy. " Even if she was pretending, it was fine. If her mother couldn't face her, she had to face it.

Madam Lian turned her body, and borrowed the dim light of the octagonal palace lamp to look at her daughter directly, "Is it because of Sis Hui'er? I know you and Sis Hui'er are close, but how can you sacrifice your entire life just because of a sister's relationship? It is precisely because Sis Hui'er and you are close that she will understand you one day … "

"It's not because of third sister, it's because of me!" Lin Shu looked at the sky of cyan colored draconic curtain above her head, and spoke word by word: "All these years, did you regret marrying your father?"
