Rebirth Of Proud Noble Daughter - C217
Second Madam?
Lin Shu revealed a face full of suspicion. When they were toasting yesterday, she had roughly figured out the personality of the Second Madam, wanted to curry favor with the Old Ancestor, but was afraid of the Young Madam Zhang.
Lin Shu nodded her head, “Call Second Madam in!”
After that, the Second Madam walked in with a smile. Today, she was wearing a coquettish silk dress with cut sleeves, the material did not look ordinary, and there was even a burning blue glass on her head as if it was made of enamel. His beautiful face made her seem even younger. Those who knew that she was the mother of two kids around ten years old would think that she was only twenty years old now.
Lin Shu stood up, “Aunt!”
Compared to Lin Shu who was dressed in plain clothes, the Second Madam was like a newlyweds …
The Second Madam grabbed her hand and said softly: “Rest quickly, don’t kill me. I just have nothing better to do. I came here to visit you. If you are like this, I won’t dare come here in the future …”
The tone was very familiar.
Lin Shu said yes with a smile.
The Second Madam took her hand and sat down. He only asked her if she was used to living in the National Duke Ning Palace and if he was used to eating. Lu Jingran treated her ok. Even though Jing Ran was born from a concubine, but our family has never paid much attention to such things, especially since the Old Ancestor has always treated Jing Ran as his own grandson. At that time, I had often joked with the Old Master, if Jing Ran was a girl, the Old Ancestor would definitely keep it in his mouth, afraid that he would fall while holding it in his hands.
Lin Shu laughed, “Thank you for your reminder, Aunt.”
She understood the meaning behind Chen’s words. Firstly, being able to marry Lu Jingran was his good fortune, and secondly, regardless of whether the second wife was born in the family or not, the National Duke Ning Palace did not care about being frugal, but she herself could not even see clearly the people from the second wife.
The Second Madam saw her smiling and thought she was someone easy to fool, he patted her hands and said: “Your second uncle and I are good friends, normally your second uncle is very busy, I do not have anything to do, just accompanying your grandmother and chatting with her or listening to the play and admiring the flowers, if you have nothing better to do in the future, you just have to talk to me, I have no other shortcomings, just that I like talking too much, don’t bother me with it.”
These were her humble words.
Lin Shu only said: “Aunt is joking, I just married into the National Duke Ning Palace and do not understand many things. I am afraid that in the future, I will have many opportunities to consult with you, and I hope you will not find me stupid!”
“Of course! “Of course!” Second Madam was obviously very happy, “Also, your Miaomiao cousin seems to be a person who is difficult to get along with, but her heart is actually the best. Yesterday …
After she finished speaking, she took a sip of tea with the tea Gu and looked like she was drinking it, her gaze landing on Lin Shu.
Lin Shu finally understood that the Second Madam trying to get close to him was a lie, she was the one who had come to speak up for her daughter!
Yesterday, she was very impressed with Second Wife Chen’s daughter, Lu Min. When she went to offer tea to Second Wife Chen, Second Wife Chen gave her a jade bracelet inlaid with gems. The color of the bracelet was excellent, and the gems on it were the size of a thumb nail. It was a rare item …
Even the Old Ancestor laughed and joked that the Second Madam had spent a lot of resources, but Lin Shu had been used to seeing such good things since she was young.
At that time, Lu Minzhi’s face revealed a look of unwillingness, as though his mother gave him this bracelet, and she had gotten a huge benefit.
And the gift she gave to Lu Min Zhi was a luminous pearl in a pouch. It had the laughter of a pigeon’s egg, and even if she had money, it would still be hard to buy …” After all, she always remembered what her mother and Aunt Lian had said, “Duke Ning’s Mansion is a noble place amongst the noble ones.” After all, she always remembered what her mother and Aunt Lian had said, “Duke Ning’s Mansion is a noble place among the noble ones.
But at that time, when Lu Minzhi received the purse, she was thinking about something for a moment, so she frowned and muttered: “Didn’t they say that Lian Family is the wealthiest in Jiangnan, and is very rich? Why is the granddaughter of this Lian Family so petty? ”
At that time, when she was standing in front of Lu Minzhi, coincidentally obstructing the Old Ancestor’s line of sight, in addition to the fact that Lu Minzhi’s voice was soft, only she, Lu Minzhi and the Second Madam had heard these words at the time.
The smile on her face hadn’t faded, but that didn’t mean she didn’t care about anything … Lu Minzhi of the Second Branch was probably not a good person either.
But in front of the Second Madam, Lin Shu could not say such words, and only said: “What happened yesterday? Why didn’t I know? Since when did Min’s cousin charge at me? Why can’t I remember? ”
She knew how much the Old Ancestor doted on Lu Jingran. Even though Lu Minzhi was the only girl in the entire He’s Mansion, and the Old Ancestor usually ached a lot, compared to Lu Jingran, he couldn’t even be considered a fart!
Furthermore, the Old Ancestor valued rules and regulations greatly. If he knew that his own daughter had said those words to him yesterday, he would not have given his own daughter a good ending. “It’s fine, it’s fine.
After saying that, she couldn’t help but feel proud in her heart. Didn’t they say that Lin Shu was very capable? She could even win over Eighth Prince … But from her point of view, Lin Shu was only so-so.
Lin Shu laughed, and changed the topic, since most of the discussions were about the Old Ancestor, and now that they were talking, it seemed that the Old Ancestor was the only one left.
With regards to the Young Madam Zhang, even if she had the guts to give it to the Second Madam, she would not dare to say it. However, speaking of Lu Jingran, she did not know much about him. But whatever she said, Lin Shu would just listen.
He even gave her two prescriptions before Second Madam left, saying that the Old Ancestor liked to eat sweet, sticky and soft. When he told her that there was nothing to do, she might as well follow the instructions on the recipe and make a cinnamon nectar rice cake for the Old Ancestor to eat. The Old Ancestor would definitely be happy to see that.
When this person grew old, he naturally hoped that his children would be filial and filial, and would be able to be happy.
On this matter, Second Madam did not lie to her, but on this matter, he would not gain much from deceiving Chen.
When Lin Shu sent the Second Madam out the door, he naturally thanked him again and again.
In fact, the Second Madam also had his own thoughts. In terms of family background, although she was from a famous family, she was naturally not as powerful as the National Duke Ning’s Madam. Furthermore, her husband was just a concubine, hence she had no right to speak in the National Duke Ning Palace.
If the Old Ancestor was not a kind person, and if she did not support the Young Madam Zhang, perhaps the entire National Duke Ning would not even have a place for them. In the entire National Duke Ning Palace, who could she afford to offend?
Yesterday, when she went back to open Lu Minzhi’s bag of holding, she discovered that there was a pigeon egg-sized Night Pearl inside. At that time, she couldn’t help but take in a breath of cold air. This Lian Family is way too rich.
Lu Minzhi glanced at it, and could not help but look at it with disdain, “Isn’t it just a Night Pearl? What did she have there, what did her grandmother and aunt have? Don’t forget, even though Grandmother loves them now, Grandmother is old now. How long can she live? In the future, this National Duke Ning Palace will be decided by Aunt, if we get too close to them, you better be careful not to give us any good fruits to eat! ”
Even though she was only thirteen or fourteen years old, she already understood that the Young Madam Zhang could not be offended. Fortunately, the Young Madam Zhang doted on her and she was willing to hold onto the Young Madam Zhang, wishing that the Young Madam Zhang could tell her to head east but she did not dare to head west.
The Second Madam was both happy and worried about this matter. Firstly, he felt that her daughter had been smart and understanding since she was young, and secondly, he felt that her daughter was like the daughter of the Young Madam Zhang.
On the other hand, she thought about it clearly, although the Young Madam Zhang’s second house was not bad, but it was only a matter of face. After the ancestor dies, the Young Madam Zhang would probably become the first family to be divided, and the uncle will have soft ears, so at that time, wouldn’t the Young Madam Zhang be able to bully the second house?
Thus, not only did she have to hurry back to the Young Madam Zhang, she also had to curry favor with the Old Ancestor. Even this newly entered Lin Shu could not be forgiven …
After waiting for Second Madam to leave, Lin Shu took Yun Dou back to the inner room. Even Yun Dou couldn’t help but exclaim: “Miss, this Second Madam is really a good person. He’s much better than the Second Madam from before.”
She was a person without a sense of foresight. She felt that it was good to be laughed at by others.
Lin Shu shook her head, “Yunbean, there are a lot of things that can’t be done just by looking at one. Isn’t that a bit too one-sided! We have only come to the Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion today, so we do not know much about it. It is best to be careful, and whether the Second Madam is good or not, we can temporarily wait for a few more months before we judge. ”
However, there was one thing that she knew, it was always right to be filial to her ancestors.
Everyone said that the Old Ancestor was good, so he must be good. Furthermore, when she went to the Green Pine Academy to pay respects to her grandmother one time, she had gone to her grandmother and Nanny Chen to talk. At that time, she finally knew what grudges the Old Ancestor had with her grandmother.
At that time, she had felt that the Old Ancestor was truly magnanimous and benevolent, and now she felt even more that the Old Ancestor was not simple. Even though she was the granddaughter of her grandmother and her reputation was so poor, the Old Ancestor was still thinking for her … If she was the old ancestor, she probably wouldn’t have been able to do such a thing!
