Lin Wan expected that her grandmother would come to make things difficult for her, but she never thought that she would ask her to pay her respects on this cold night of the twelfth lunar month.
At this time, the ends of Yan Ci's eyes were red, but there was murderous intent in his eyes.
He said in a very calm and gentle tone: "Huanhua, do you need me to help you break her neck?"
When the two were having fun before, it was okay to be disturbed by Princess Rongcheng, especially when Princess Rongcheng came specially to deliver medicine to Huanhan.
But now, a woman dares to be so arrogant. Let's not talk about anything else. Lin Wanyi is the master after all. The other party is yelling like this, and it is obvious that she does not take her seriously.
Lin Wanyi kissed Yanci's eyebrows and said comfortingly: "She's just a mother-in-law. She's not worthy of your anger. I can take care of this mother-in-law myself, but I have to go to my grandmother's side."
Yan Ci frowned, not too relieved.
Calling people over in the middle of the night is obviously to bother them!
Lin Wanyi comforted her and said, "Don't worry. If I don't return, I'll ask Bai Zhi to send a message to my mother and the others. After all, I am the emperor's personally appointed princess, so I will definitely not suffer any loss."
Although the other party is an elder, if he goes too far, Lin Wanyi will not accept it.
Lin Wanyi got up, changed her clothes, and went out wearing a rabbit fur cloak.
She walked directly up to the screaming old woman, raised her hand, and slapped the old woman five or six times with her bow left and right!
After she finished beating, Poria hurriedly handed over the stove.
Lin Wanyi took the hand stove, held it in both hands, and looked at the collapsed mother Chen indifferently.
Mother Chen probably hadn't been beaten like this in many years. She didn't react for a long time. She pointed her finger at Lin Wanyi and shook for a long time.
"You, how dare you hit me? Do you know who I am?!"
Lin Wanyi asked good-naturedly: "Who are you?"
"I am a first-class palace maid. I have accompanied Princess Showa here since I was fifteen! My daughter is still the wife of the palace's housekeeper!"
"Oh, aren't you still a slave? In front of this princess, bite me every bite," Lin Wanyi raised her head, with a cold light in her eyes, "Poria, give me a slap!"
"yes!"
Poria has long been disgusted with Mother Chen.
I just heard Bai Zhi say that this old woman used to be from the palace and acted domineeringly in the palace. Later, her daughter married Du Heng, the palace steward, and she became even more arrogant and domineering.
Any maid in the palace who said a few words to Du Heng would always say that she wanted to seduce Du Heng.
Anyway, now that he had the opportunity, Poria was unequivocal and slapped him ten times.
I was so stunned that Mother Chen was fooled!
Her bun was crooked, her face was swollen, and she looked stupid.
However, Lin Wanyi held the stove and said, "Mother Chen, didn't you say that grandma misses me? Why don't you go and lead the way? It's your fault for delaying my greeting grandma!"
Mother Chen was beaten so hard that she almost spat out a mouthful of blood!
But the previous slap had its effect. She didn't dare to do it again. She cursed in her heart, but she responded obediently and led Lin Wanyi the way.
Yan Ci was standing in front of the window wearing clothes, squinting slightly as he looked at the orange light of the string of lanterns, which reflected the graceful figure of Pingting.
He pushed open the window lattice and knocked on it. After a while, Tianji, dressed in black night clothes, knelt outside the window.
"Tianji, follow me. If you see Huanhua suffer a loss, take action immediately. I will bear any consequences."
"yes!"
Tianji is actually here too. The banquet asked him to do other things before, but he has just come back.
With a swish of his voice, his figure disappeared into the night and followed Lin Wanyi and the others.
After a while, Fu Ling noticed something. She looked behind her and made sure to see Tianji's figure. Then she felt determined and held Lin Wanyi's arm, "Master, be careful where you step."
"Um."
Lin Wanyi was not very familiar with this palace. After all, she was new here, so she was paying close attention to it.
Feeling Fu Ling pinch her arm suddenly, she raised her head and looked over, and found this quirky girl winking playfully at her.
Does this mean she shouldn't worry?
Lin Wanyi smiled slightly, but began to think about it in her heart.
Because of what her mother said before and what Fu Ling found out later, she already had a bad impression of this grandmother.
It's just that the other party is an elder after all, so everything has to wait until they meet before deciding.
But now, the other party had people coming to give him authority in the middle of the night, and looking at Chen's mother's temper... Maybe those comments were not rumors, but pertinent facts.
Mother Chen took Lin Wanyi to Cixi Hall.
It is now the time of Xu. Not to mention the elderly, many of the women in the house are getting ready to rest at this time.
Therefore, many rooms in Cixi Hall are dark, and only a few wing rooms have lights on, which must be where the servants live.
The night wind in the twelfth lunar month of winter is very cold and chilly. If you stand outside for a long time, the weak body will definitely get cold.
After Mrs. Chen returned to Cixi Hall, she seemed to have confidence. She snorted coldly: "Excuse me, Princess, please wait here. I will go in and ask the old lady for instructions."
"Wait a minute, Mother Chen, just stay here and accompany me. The princess is afraid of the dark," Lin Wanyi smiled very gently, "Just let others go in and report."
Mother Chen almost spit out another mouthful of old blood, but she was afraid that Lin Wanyi would slap herself again, so she had to let another little maid go in to deliver the message.
As expected, the little maid didn't come back after being away for a long time.
Lin Wanyi was not in a hurry, because she was wearing a big cloak, holding a hand stove, plus Poria cocos and brought her a small porridge, which was also covered with soft cushions.
If her guess was correct, her grandmother probably wanted her to stand in the cold wind for a while.
If you are a weak person and stand in the cold wind for a while at night, you will get cold.
Her grandmother... really doesn't like her.
Mother Chen’s eyes widened!
Did this girl know something in advance?
But Mother Chen was full of words, but she didn't dare to say a word. The little maid who came in here was saying to Mother Li tremblingly: "Mother Chen is outside, her face is swollen, and she asked the slave to come in and report. "
Mother Li frowned slightly. She looked inside and saw that the old lady had fallen asleep and said she wanted to leave the princess alone. But now it seems that the princess is not a soft persimmon.
The little maid asked, "Mother Li, what should I do?"
Mother Li raised her eyelids slightly and just said, "Old Madam, go to bed."
The old lady questioned that she wanted to leave the princess alone, but they, the servants, had nothing to do.
Mother Chen also knew what the old lady was planning, but now she was unlucky enough to have to accompany her and couldn't leave. She was really afraid that if she left directly, the princess would dare someone to chase her and slap her!
She cursed in her heart: It's very cold tonight. You, a delicate little girl, have been frozen outside for half a night. It can make you sick no matter what! It’s better to have a disease that prevents you from having children for the rest of your life!
Lin Wanyi's sharp eyes suddenly glanced over, "Mother Chen, were you scolding me just now?"
