Being stared at by those two people, Lin Mengya felt uncomfortable. She had to put down the book in her hand and stared at them.
After a while, Ruyue couldn't help but ask Lin Mengya.
"Miss, where did you learn all these things from? Why don't you teach me? "
Ruyue complained, but Lin Mengya didn't care about her.
She turned her head and looked at the slender little boy.
"What's your name?" The boy seemed to wake up from a dream. His face turned red, but he still plucked up his courage.
"They … they all call me Stone." The boy's voice was so low that it couldn't be heard. But it made Lin Mengya's heart ripple.
"Where do you live? Do you have any relatives? "Lin Mengya wanted to send the boy to his family in accordance with the principle of saving people to the end.
Unexpectedly, the little boy shook his head, as if he thought of something unhappy.
"As long as I can remember, I wandered with an old beggar. Later, this group of people found me in a broken temple. They killed the old beggar and took me away. I heard from Mao San that he would sell me to a rich family to be a catamite, so he only asked me to do these jobs that wouldn't really hurt my muscles and bones. "
Lin Mengya's heart suddenly sank.
Her pretty face was as cold as frost. She guessed it right. However, being sold to a rich family to be a catamite was no different from being dead.
At the moment, her eyes flashed and she made a decision.
"Stone, this name is not good. From now on, you will be called Lin Zhongyu. My name is Lin Mengya. We are cousins. Do you remember? "
Stone, no, now it should be called Lin Zhongyu. A pair of cat eyes looked at Sister Princess in front of him in a silly way.
He pinched his thigh fiercely and found that he was not dreaming.
"Really … can I?" Lin Zhongyu couldn't believe that such a good thing would fall from the sky and fall on him.
"Of course. Don't worry. No one dares to bully you in the future as long as I am here!" Lin Mengya didn't know why she recognized this child on impulse.
But she didn't regret it. If she casually let him go, those people would definitely come to him for trouble.
At that time, she would be harming him.
It would be safer to keep him by her side. Moreover, the Prince's Mansion was so big that he would not be the only one to eat.
After such a thrilling morning, when Lin Mengya entered the Prince's Mansion with Lin Zhongyu and Ruyue, Aunt Jinyue who served Concubine De had been waiting at the gate for a long time.
There were two maids accompanying Concubine De when she was married.
Aunt Jinyue was gentle, and she was modest and polite to her servants. That was why he often walked around the Outer Court.
There was another aunt, Jingyue. She was calm, attentive and considerate, but she was a man of few words. Therefore, she served Concubine De most of the time.
"Greetings to the Princess —" Jinyue bowed to salute. Even in the Prince's Mansion, she was still well-mannered.
Lin Mengya bowed, totally not putting on airs like she did in the Lin family. Jinyue's eyes became softer. Princess Yu was beautiful, smart and had a good family background. She was a good daughter-in-law.
"Aunt, are you here because Concubine De has something to ask me?" Lin Mengya asked carefully. To be honest, although she could win the favor of Concubine De, she had no experience in the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
"It's time to call you mother. Concubine De has something to ask you. Come with me, Your Highness." Lin Mengya hastily arranged Ruyue and Lin Zhongyu. Then she followed Jinyue to the Art Courtyard in the main courtyard.
In the main hall, Concubine De was sitting on the main seat. Because she was not in the palace, she only wore a cyan-gray Treasure Flower dress. She only combed her hair into an ordinary bun and only wore a set of peony hairstyles.
Although she was not as rich and powerful as she was in the palace, she felt a little more intimate.
Lin Mengya knelt there obediently and greeted Concubine De.
"Greetings to mother, I'm here." There was a little sadness in Concubine De's eyes. But when she saw her well-behaved daughter-in-law, the sadness disappeared a little.
"Good girl, get up. Come on, I have a few words to tell you." Concubine De suffered in the palace for several years in exchange for Long Tianhao's safety. As Long Tianhao's wife, she was bound to cultivate Lin Mengya.
"I heard that you had a conflict with someone on the street today?" Concubine De's words made Lin Mengya blush.
Today, it was indeed a little noisy. But she did not expect that Concubine De, who lived in the depths of Prince Yu's Mansion, was so well-informed.
"I know that you are a sensible child. But when you enter Prince Yu's Mansion, you have to consider everything for Yu 'er. For example, today, do you know that those ruffians can run amuck in the world? There must be a force behind them. Do you know which force belongs to? "
Concubine De's words instantly made Lin Mengya realize her shortcomings.
From childhood to adulthood, she was the type of person who fought alone. So she did things according to her own mood. There were some things that she really did not consider thoroughly.
Moreover, Concubine De's words were sincere.
Immediately, Lin Mengya nodded with admiration.
Seeing that her daughter-in-law was so enlightened, Concubine De smiled a little.
"Just in time, Jinyue will go to Qinglan Courtyard to serve you from tomorrow. If there is anything inconvenient or you don't understand, ask Jinyue. I'm tired, you also go back to have a rest. "
"Yes, Ya 'er will leave."
"Yes, I will follow your order."
Out of the gate of the main hall of Art Courtyard, Jinyue followed Lin Mengya. Although Jinyue could be regarded as an elder, she still scrupulously abided by her duty.
Along the way, all the people bowed to Lin Mengya. It was not until now that Lin Mengya realized how many people's lives were tied to Prince Yu in this huge courtyard.
In Qinglan Courtyard, Lin Mengya sat on the soft couch with her hand on her forehead, thinking about what happened in the morning.
"Princess, are you worried about what happened in the morning?" The considerate Aunt Jinyue personally came up with a plate of carefully selected fresh fruits.
Lin Mengya was not in the mood. She only cared about herself and forgot to consider others.
"Aunt Jinyue, I … did I do something wrong?" Jinyue shook her head with a smile and whispered, "You didn't do anything wrong. You just didn't think it through. Concubine De is still young and will definitely have a promising future."
At this age, Concubine De was just a little girl who had just entered the palace.
But Princess had the ruthlessness that Concubine De had cultivated for 20 years. Only this was enough for her to stand firm.
Lin Mengya was suddenly enlightened by the word "thoughtful".
It seemed that she had to think of these words at all times and everywhere in the future.
"Aunt Jinyue, thank you for your advice. Ya 'er is very grateful." Lin Mengya admired the gentle and amiable Jinyue very much. After living in the palace for so many years, she still had a lot to learn!
"Miss, Miss, please go and have a look. Childe Yu, he … he …" Ruyue, who took Lin Zhongyu to take a bath, shouted and ran in.
Her small round face was crimson, and her watery eyes were full of shyness. She kept calling him … his, but she couldn't say a complete sentence.
"Why are you so flustered? Look at yourself! If His Highness is here, wouldn't it be rude? " Compared with Lin Mengya's gentleness and politeness, Jinyue treated Ruyue, the little girl who was not sensible, a little more severely.
The skill of controlling was also a necessary lesson for a princess. Lin Mengya didn't interrupt and just watched quietly.
She brought Ruyue here, but also dragged her into the unfathomable whirlpool of the royal family. If she was still as simple as before, she was afraid that she would become a victim sooner or later.
If they wanted to live well, they had to change their relationship.
"Yes, Aunt." At home, Ruyue, who was used to being scolded, immediately became well-behaved, but her big eyes still looked at her miss pitifully.
Lin Mengya sighed faintly and got up helplessly. After all, Ruyue was just a girl.
"Aunt, there is nothing important here. Why don't you teach me the rules tomorrow?" Ruyue immediately seemed to find a big savior. She hid beside her miss and secretly glanced at Aunt Jinyue.
Of course, Jinyue knew what Lin Mengya was thinking. She saluted and went out of the door of the main hall.
"Miss, who is this person? Why is she so fierce?" Ruyue rubbed her head and looked at Lin Mengya.
"She is Aunt Jinyue who serves Concubine De. From now on, you little girls will be under her control. Also, you should learn the rules well. If something happens in the future, how can I take you out? "
Playing tricks with power was playing with people's hearts.
She didn't expect Ruyue to be a female Zhuge Liang, but at least, she should be able to protect herself. Otherwise, it was better to find someone to marry early and end all troubles.
But Ruyue was one of the few people Lin Mengya cared about in the past. Even for the poor innocent girl who died in vain, she had to protect Ruyue.
"Yes, I will." Hearing that she had to learn the rules, Ruyue didn't feel relaxed.
In the past, when she was in the Lin Family, she often got beaten for Miss who couldn't learn.
But why was she still the one to be punished when Miss had learned the rules?
"Well, why did you call me in such a hurry?" After a long time, even Ru Yue almost forgot her original intention.
She immediately pulled Lin Mengya's arm and said. But the young voice of a young man at the door interrupted her.
"Sister, Princess Yu, can Zhongyu come in?" Lin Mengya came to the door with a smile on her face.
