At noon, looking at the newly dressed Lin Jinyan, the old lady could not help but smile:
"Okay, the girl should wear brighter clothes."
Lin Yanqing stroked his beard and smiled: "Looking at his face, he seems to have more flesh than when he came back."
Lin Jinyan smiled brightly: "My whole body is very round. My grandmother is at home every day and asks the kitchen to prepare food for me in various ways. Grandpa, you always bring food when you come back from outside. Yan'er comes from early in the morning. I have no time to eat at night and I don’t even feel hungry, so how can I not get fat?”
Lin Wanrong smiled as she watched several people talking, her expression full of happiness.
Zhou Yuexue glanced at Lin Jinyan's face and felt that the brightness was particularly annoying. She suppressed the jealousy in her heart and her face became more friendly:
"My sister is so thin, how can she be considered fat? I just hope that my sister will take good care of her body as soon as possible. Even if she is fatter, it doesn't matter."
Old lady: "Yue Xue is right. Your body is the most important thing, but don't worry about eating because you are afraid of getting fat."
Lin Jinyan said sweetly: "It's such a huge injustice. Yan'er listens to your words the most. What's more, you send Sister Agate to visit me twice a day. How dare I do that?"
After some joking, the old lady asked worriedly:
"The general's wife will also be attending the palace banquet. Don't run around with the general's wife. If you meet a blind girl like the Zhao family again, your elders will support you, so don't take it personally."
Lin Jinyan responded one by one: "Grandma, my brother is with my father, receiving the students who come to say goodbye in the front yard. Later, they will follow my grandfather and Yan'er to the palace. There are also two cousins, uncle, aunt and grandpa." I will go with you too. With so many people watching, why are you worried?"
The old lady sighed: "It is a great honor to go to the palace for a banquet, but it is also a place where you can get into trouble if you are not careful. How can grandma not be worried?"
Zhou Yuexue lowered her eyes and said bitterly in her heart:
If you don’t want to go, just complain about the illness and not go away. There are many people who want to go, and show this cowardly and extremely distressed look to who can see?
Lin Jinyan: "Don't worry, grandma. Yan'er will be careful about her words and actions after entering the palace. She will definitely not be full at the palace banquet. Grandma just prepares the food and waits for us to come back for the reunion dinner."
After Lin Siyuan and his son saw off their students, they immediately came to Songmao Hall to pick up Lin Jinyan and Lin Yanqing.
After the three people left, the hall suddenly became much quieter. Seeing the old lady's expression of loss and worry, Lin Siyuan smiled and said:
"Mom, they will be back later. When I met Siran the day before yesterday, I told him that I would take Jin Yun back to the house to watch the New Year. I thought I should come after a while."
When the old lady heard this, her spirits improved a lot:
"Okay, the whole family is here together, it's lively."
After speaking, the old lady sighed in confusion:
"Yan'er received a reward a few days ago. It's understandable that she is on the list of palace banquets. An'er can hardly leave the house these days, so why is she on the list."
Zhou Yuexue's eyes flashed slightly and she smiled and said:
"In Kyoto, who doesn't know that sister Jinyan and An'er are twins? It would seem petty to invite one to the other but not the other. That's why the empress has written down both."
The old lady nodded and said, "That's the same reason."
At the gate of the palace, Lin Jinyan opened the curtain and saw the carriage of the General's Palace. After getting out of the car and talking to Lin Yanqing and Lin Jinan, she got into Bai Yiran's carriage with Bai Zhi and Hongjiu.
While talking to Lin Jinyan with a smile, Bai Yiran habitually checked Lin Jinyan's pulse and let go after confirming that nothing was wrong.
