Young Madam Zhang, who was sitting at the side, did not interrupt.

In fact, Young Madam Zhang still had some respect for the Old Ancestor on the surface. No matter how she thought about it, she couldn't lose face.

But now, she only felt that her heart was filled with a stomach full of anger, and there was no place for her to vent it on, so she couldn't hold it in any longer …

Young Madam Zhang looked at Lin Shu.

Lin Shu's expression did not change, she continued to accompany the Old Ancestor, and even had a slight smile on her face … This Madam Lin was not as simple as she thought!

Young Madam Zhang sat for a while and then left.

Back then, when she had proposed to marry the Young Madam Zhang, how could she have thought that there would be such a day? At that time, she had thought that the Zhang Family was a family with a unique history, and at that time, she was still the Crown Prince's consort. The Empress Zhang was gentle and virtuous, showing the intent to marry her younger sister to the National Duke Ning Palace … At that time, she did not think too much about it. After all, the two ladies of Zhang Family were extremely famous in the capital.

Lin Shu smiled and advised: "Grandmother, do not be angry, even if this grandpa was messing around previously, it is not something that happened before the marriage. Now that this grandpa is already married, and Master is already married, I believe I know what I'm doing!"

The Old Ancestor originally wanted to wait for the Young Madam Zhang to leave and comfort Lin Shu, but she didn't expect that Lin Shu would do the opposite.

The Old Ancestor felt even more sorry for her, "Truly a good child, don't worry, I will definitely not ignore Yuan Xiaoyi's side. The rules of the National Duke Ning Palace cannot be messed up!"

In fact, there were very few martial general families where men could only take in concubines when they were over forty years old. The martial general families had never had as many rules as scholars, and killing enemies on the battlefield had always been difficult.

Since ancient times, there had always been more deaths than living people in the National Duke Ning Palace. This husband had finally come back from the battlefield with great difficulty, and there were even a room full of concubines and concubines waiting for him to be pampered. How could a wealthy lady be willing to marry into such a family?

Actually, Lin Shu no longer suspected Lu Jingran … Based on Lu Jingran's personality, if she truly liked Yuan Xiaoyi, he would not even need to wait for Young Madam Zhang to come visit him, she was afraid that Lu Jingran would already tell him about it.

Because Young Madam Zhang had made a mess, the Old Ancestor was naturally unhappy. Lin Shu accompanied her and spoke a few words, and then the Old Ancestor called her down.

It just so happened that at this time, Second Madam came over with her daughter, Lu Minzhi. After greeting her, Lin Shu went back down the stairs, but who would have known that Nanny Bai was told by Nanny Bai that the Old Ancestor was a little uncomfortable and wanted them to come back in the evening.

Lu Minzhi was naturally muttering to herself, "Grandmother is usually fine and well, why is Grandmother so uncomfortable when Big Sis comes over?"

Second Madam pulled her sleeve and glanced at Lin Shu, but she did not hear him.

In fact, how could Lin Shu not hear him? She was just pretending that she didn't hear him.

As she walked out of Rongshou Hall's gate, Yun Dou's eyes turned red. Even if they weren't well-liked by others previously in terms of Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion, who would dare to speak to them like that?

It was true that this uncle was born from a concubine, but in the end, he was still the eldest son of the National Duke Ning.

Lin Shu heard her sniffing from behind, and said indifferently: "What, you can't hold it in anymore? Do you feel wronged? "

"This servant … this servant feels wronged on behalf of the young lady!" There was a hint of a sobbing tone in her voice, "What kind of thing is that big girl? Why are you able to talk about you in the Rongshou Hall? In the entire Rongshou Hall, only the Old Ancestor could do something like this … Second Madam acted as if he didn't hear it. "

Lin Shu turned her head and looked at her, "Alright, don't feel wronged, what kind of grievances haven't we suffered before? You're crying because of such a small grievance? "

Saying that, she laughed coldly, "Second Madam did not make any sound just now because he was afraid of disturbing the Old Ancestor. The Old Ancestor values the rules, and if he knew that Lu Minzhi has no rules, why would he not punish her? Furthermore, the Old Ancestor was not happy to see me just now, so if he were to make a ruckus just now, wouldn't he be even more upset? "

In this world, there were many things that were right and wrong. Moreover, now was not the time to care about these matters.

"Yes, young lady. Your servant …" This servant will not be so petty in the future. "

Lin Shu nodded, she planned to pay respects to the Young Madam Zhang.

But who would have known that she would be informed of her departure after having left the Young Madam Zhang.

So fast?

Lin Shu faintly guessed that the Young Madam Zhang was going to the palace once again. After all, Jin Wu Wei was indeed a hot topic, and was not something that could be obtained just by thinking about.

If she remembered correctly, Lu Jingran also went to the Jin Wu Wei in his previous life, before he led his troops to war … It seems that Lu Jingran has decided on the vacancy known as the Jin Wu Wei.

At this moment, Lu Jingran was in a small courtyard on the outskirts of the city.

He paced back and forth under the veranda, his expression uneasy. Wasn't the one standing beside him the Yuan Xiaoyi?

Today, Yuan Xiaoyi took off her thick makeup and her costume. There was a faint smile on her extremely delicate and pretty face, which was completely different from the usual cold look on her face.

Looking at the uneasy expression on his face, Yuan Xiaoyi said softly, "Uncle, there's no need to worry. Tingsheng's cold this time could not be considered serious as well, but her body is too weak. That's why she can't afford to get sick.

Even though she said that, the way she tightly gripped the handkerchief betrayed her worry.

Lu Jingran sighed, "It's been one or two years. How come Tingsheng's body is still so weak? How do the people below take care of them? "

Tingsheng was precisely the only child of the First Prince, also the person the princes were currently looking for.

Yuan Xiaoyi smiled faintly, "Tingsheng was born without satisfaction, and has always had a weaker physique than the children by her side. In the past few years, her lungs have drifted and she has eaten her fill, her body naturally becoming even more inferior. For the past one or two years, I have sent people over to help her with the soup everyday, but the results have still not been great."

I don't know who heard that you were married a few days ago, and he kept saying that he wanted to go to the National Duke Ning Palace to take a look, although I stopped him, he is very brave, and even tried to sneak out at night, but luckily he was stopped by the old woman guarding the door. He fell ill because of the night wind, and to be honest, it's all my fault, I didn't look too favorably on him ….

At the end of his words, his tears were about to fall.

Lu Jingran turned his head to look at her, and his tone softened as well, "I can't blame you. If he wants to go somewhere else, you can just bring him along. The courtyard looked like the passed away Concubine of First Prince. If someone saw him, he wouldn't be able to hide his identity … "Moreover, with you taking care of Tingsheng, I can't be more at ease."

While they were talking, the doctor inside opened the door and the two of them asked in unison, "Doctor, how is it?"

The doctor wiped off the sweat on his forehead and nodded, "Naturally, I will keep my life. However, this child's body is too weak, so it's best for me to be careful in the future. If this severe cold happens again in one or two months, my life will definitely be in danger."

"Thank you, Doctor Fan." With that, Lu Jingran personally sent Doctor Fan out.

This Doctor Fan was not an ordinary doctor, he was a doctor in the National Duke Ning, and normally when there was money, he would not be able to invite them. Otherwise, Lu Jingran would not personally send Doctor Fan out.

It was also because today, Tingsheng's illness had been too severe, and Lu Jingran would not send Ban Xia to invite Dr. Fan over.

Doctor Fan walked to the door and said, "Please wait a moment, sir!"

Lu Jingran nodded, after saying that he was going to walk slowly, he turned around, but who knew that Doctor Fan would call out to him, "Master, there are some things I want to say to you, please allow me to speak with you."

Lu Jingran nodded, and the two of them went inside the house.

Doctor Fan was already over sixty years old, and his body was considered healthy as well. Now, he stroked his beard and said leisurely, "This old man has been visiting the Lu family for the ancestors, and has even followed the Old Duke to the battlefield. This old man has seen the Old Duke grow up without any rules, and this old man only wants to exhort the Old Duke to lose his wits!"

Lu Jingran's mouth twitched.

Doctor Fan waved his hand. "Don't try to explain, sir. This old man is so old, what don't you understand? When you said that the young master was Miss Yuan's younger brother that you received from the countryside two years ago, you even said that you and Miss Yuan were merely familiar with each other when I entered the door. However, based on the expression on your face just now, it's not as simple as being familiar with each other. "

Lu Jingran knew that he would misunderstand, but he was unable to explain and could only say, "Doctor Fan, this matter is really not what you think it is …"

"Don't lie to this old man!" Doctor Fan would go to the National Duke Ning Palace every ten days to check on the Old Ancestor's pulse. After so many years, the Old Ancestor and Doctor Fan were like old friends, "The Old Ancestor is very old, and the person he loves the most is you. Great sir, think twice before you act! "

After saying this, he did not care about Lu Jingran's insistence on leaving.

When the two of them walked to the door, Yuan Xiaoyi personally came out to welcome them. "Today, I, your little brother, am sick. Thank you very much, Doctor Fan." Doctor Fan was the most prestigious doctor in the capital, and his medical skills were in no way inferior to the imperial physicians of the palace. If not for the restrictions imposed by the palace, he would have become the head of the hospital and would have been sentenced by the court.

Doctor Fan only glanced at the two of them, shook his head, and sighed before leaving.

Yuan Xiaoyi asked, "Great Master, what happened to Doctor Fan? And it was even better just now! "

Naturally, Lu Jingran would not say what Dr. Fan had said just now. She and Yuan Xiaoyi had always been pure, and saying such words would only cause them to feel awkward, "It's alright, I'll go in and see Tingsheng!"
