"Master, you're here. It took me a long time to find you!"
Baizhi's pretty figure appeared in Lin Mengya's sight from afar.
She was in such a hurry. Could it be that something had happened in the Liuxin Courtyard?
"What's wrong? Look at you being in such a hurry. Could it be that you're on fire? "
Baishao grabbed Baizhi, who was out of breath, and asked anxiously.
"It's not the fire, it's the wolf! Master, just as you left, Second Miss came to our courtyard with her maid. Childe Yu is afraid that she'll take the opportunity to play tricks, so he's watching her! "
Lin Mengwu? What was she doing here?
Maybe she came with bad intentions. Or maybe she was anxious because she had to take her mother into the mansion.
"It doesn't matter. We'll know when we see her."
In the main room of the Liuxin Courtyard, Lin Zhongyu was sitting at the desk, reading a book on the shelf without saying a word.
Baiji, who was very careful, had prepared a thick eiderdown cushion and put it on the back of the chair, so that Lin Zhongyu's back would not be hurt.
Everyone in the Liuxin Courtyard had the same idea. Therefore, they disliked the Second Miss very much.
But she seemed to be unaware of it. She sat in the chair and drank the tea on Baiji's cup.
"Kid, you're not a kid anymore. But you've been going to my sister's room all day long. What would happen if word got out? You won't be able to bear the consequences if my sister's reputation is tarnished. "
Lin Zhongyu's facial features were delicate, and it was hard to tell whether he was a man or a woman. Although he was still a teenager, he was already showing his charm.
Especially now, she was wearing a snow-green brocade coat and an Eight Treasures Glazed Crown on her head. Her eyes were bright and her teeth were white. Her good looks made her look even more attractive.
However, this little brat had imitated Lin Mengya's haughty manner and ignored everyone.
"If you're a person with a dirty mind, you'll think that others are as dirty as you are. She's my sister, and I'm her brother. I'm afraid only people like you will think that I'll tarnish your reputation. "
Lin Mengwu frowned at his words.
She pointed in Lin Zhongyu's direction with her slender fingers, and glared at Lin Zhongyu.
"Hmph, don't think that you can look down on anyone just because you have big sister protecting you. Sooner or later, I will teach you a lesson and let you know the rules of a big family! "
She had long heard from the servants that in a few days, they would bring her mother to the manor.
If her mother were here, both Lin Mengya and Jiang Ruqin would be defeated by her.
At that time, the richly ornamented Prince Yu's Mansion would belong to her!
Lin Mengwu didn't continue to bicker with Lin Zhongyu.
Lin Mengya returned to the courtyard and heard a few words of Lin Mengwu.
However, if she wanted to snatch the position of First Consort, she had to first ask if she, the First Consort, agreed.
"Big Sister, you're finally back. I've been waiting anxiously."
At the sight of Lin Mengya, Lin Mengwu returned to her gentle and weak self.
She was so virtuous that she was like a completely different person.
If Lin Mengya hadn't been familiar with Lin Mengwu's tricks, she would have been fooled by her pitiful appearance.
"What's the matter?" Lin Mengwu raised her eyebrows and looked calm. No one could tell what was on her mind.
"I don't want to bother you, but have you mentioned to Prince Yu about bringing my mother to the manor?"
Lin Mengwu was well-informed. Jiang Ruqin must have forced Lin Mengwu into a corner. Otherwise, she wouldn't have rushed over early in the morning to inquire about the news.
"Yes, I did, and Prince Yu agreed. Let's bring your mother here in a few days. "
Lin Mengwu was so happy that she almost jumped up. Although she tried to hide it, her eyes were full of pride.
It seemed that once her mother arrived, the position of Princess Yu would be hers.
Lin Mengwu left Lin Mengya's Liuxin Courtyard in a hurry and told Shangguan Qing the good news.
"Big Sister, do you really want that scheming Mrs. Lin to live in our manor? I'm afraid her mother is not a good person to have raised such a daughter. "
Lin Zhongyu was a little anxious, for fear that his sister would be bullied.
"It's okay. Don't worry. It's much better to put her under our nose than to let her play tricks in the dark. What are you reading? "
Lin Mengya was not worried at all. For Lin Mengwu and Shangguan Qing, Prince Yu's Mansion was not the paradise they imagined.
"Just a random book. It's nothing serious."
When he was free, he would go to Lin Mengya's room to find a few books to read.
For one thing, he wanted to kill time. For another, he wanted to take care of his sister's room.
"You're not young anymore. When I'm free, I'll tell Prince Yu to send you to school in the Lunar Prefecture."
The ancestors of the Jin Dynasty attached great importance to the cultivation of their children.
Therefore, there was a central school, the Lunar Prefecture, in every place.
This school in the Capital City was particularly famous. There were seven or eight prime ministers in it.
She was relieved to send Xiaoyu to school.
"I … I don't want to go. I want to be with you!"
Lin Zhongyu's eyes were firm. He had never thought of leaving Lin Mengya to see the outside world.
Prince Yu's Mansion was full of dangers. Bad people were eyeing his sister covetously. He could not leave his sister alone in this mansion.
"You, forget it. Let's talk about it later. You'd better heal your wounds first."
Lin Mengya did not insist. Xiaoyu looked gentle and well-behaved, but he was stubborn in his bones. He was similar to her.
If he was willing to read, she would just search for more books for him to read. There was no lack of scholars in the Prince's Mansion. When the time came, she would hire a private tutor for him.
"Princess, Concubine De wants to see you."
Aunt Jinyue's voice came from outside the door. Lin Mengya turned her eyes and sneered.
They didn't take long to arrive.
"Aunt, you have to stand up for Qin 'er. My four maids served me since they were young. It's so unfair that they died like this. "
Jiang Ruqin stood beside Concubine De, sobbing. Her small face was like a pear blossom in the rain. She looked very pitiful.
She ran back from the garden in a panic. She stayed beside Concubine De and listed Lin Mengya's crimes.
Of course, she added some details.
Concubine De was tired of it, but she was her niece. She had to do justice.
She didn't expect that Ya 'er would be so decisive and ruthless. She had killed the lives of the four maidservants for nothing.
"Greetings, Concubine De. Good morning, Concubine De."
Lin Mengya, who had just met her, bowed to her gracefully.
Concubine De raised her head and looked carefully at her daughter-in-law in front of her. No matter how she looked at her, she only felt that she was a gentle and weak girl. She was not as fierce as the Empress at all.
"You don't have to be so polite. I want to ask you something."
But before Concubine De could say anything, Aunt Jinyue whispered something in her ear.
"Qin 'er! How dare you be so rude? Don't tell me you've forgotten all the rules and etiquette your father taught you?! "
The situation took a turn for the worse.
Concubine De, who was going to question Lin Mengya, began to scold Jiang Ruqin.
Jiang Ruqin, who did not expect this, was stunned. She looked at her aunt, who was disappointed. She had not figured out what had happened.
"Forget it, Concubine De. Ruqin was confused. Don't be angry. You'll hurt yourself."
Lin Mengya comforted Concubine De gently. There was sincerity on her face.
Lin Mengya walked to Concubine De and rubbed her chest. Because of that, a portion of her snow-white wrist was exposed. That dark bruise was particularly eye-catching in the midst of the snow-white skin.
"You — you framed me!"
Jiang Ruqin finally understood what had happened. It must be this little bitch who pretended to hurt her wrist and framed her.
She grabbed Lin Mengya's wrist with one hand and rubbed her wrist with the other hand with the handkerchief. Unexpectedly, she found that the bruise did not disappear.
"Let go of me."
Lin Mengya frowned as if she was in pain. But she endured Jiang Ruqin's helplessness silently.
"Jinyue, take Ruqin to her room and let her reflect on herself. Don't let her out without my order."
Concubine De's phoenix-like eyes turned cold. She no longer looked at Jiang Ruqin affectionately.
This girl was too bold. She was not even married, but she was so domineering.
Concubine De had intended to be Yu 'er's concubine. But now it seemed that she had not thought it through.
"Come on, Ya 'er. You've been wronged. Servants, bring me the Jade Face Ointment I use every day. "
Concubine De had kept a distance from Lin Mengya before. But now she was full of apology to her daughter-in-law.
Jinyue whispered in her ear that she had seen many such bruises on Lin Mengya's arm. Jinyue asked her secretly. But Lin Mengya just cried and refused to tell her the reason. So Concubine De guessed it immediately.
She knew Ruqin's character very well.
She must have made things difficult for Lin Mengya because of the four maidservants.
Such a wicked servant deserved to be drowned. When her master made a mistake, she didn't know how to persuade her. Instead, she incited her master. It was good that she was punished.
"Ya 'er is fine. I've made you worry. Ruqin is a guest from afar. As her sister-in-law, I should be lenient to her. It's my fault. I must have neglected her. Otherwise, she wouldn't be like this. "
The bruise on Lin Mengya's wrist was real, but it was not caused by hitting.
It was a special kind of medicine. Shopkeeper Wan always gave her some strange medicine, and this oolong grass was one of them.
It was neither painful nor itchy when applied on the body. But there would be some bruises immediately. Only experienced doctors could tell the difference.
