"Miss He? Is she the fifth lady from the household of the Minister of Household Affairs?" Ms. Zhao asked.
The maid responded: "I think it should be her."
Zhao was confused: "How do you know?"
The maid was silent for a moment and then said: "I heard that the princess personally took Miss He to the Du Mansion yesterday and asked Madam Xie to accept Miss He as her disciple. Today should be Miss He's first official day of class."
Mrs. Zhao's eyes widened: "Isn't she full? That girl from the He family is not related to her, so why is she doing such thankless things?"
She gritted her teeth angrily: "Leave the blood of the Shen family alone, but care about an outsider?"
She took Shen Linan's hand and said, "Let's go! I want to see what she, the mother-in-law, thinks!"
Leng Lanzhi was leaning against the window of the study room on the second floor, holding the biography he had not finished reading yesterday in his hand. He heard the servant's voice coming from outside: "Madam, Young Master."
After looking down at the grandfather and grandson for a while, Leng Lanzhi got up and went downstairs.
Leng Lanzhi didn't need to ask anything, Mrs. Zhao shouted: "Princess, I'm not talking about you, how can you leave your own son alone and go to take care of an outsider?"
Leng Lanzhi sat relaxedly on the small couch. Hearing this, he first glanced at Shen Lin'an.
Since what happened half a month ago, Shen Lin'an would feel guilty every time he saw her.
Sensing her gaze, he subconsciously shrank behind Zhao.
Zhao felt it and glared at Leng Lan: "Can you stop targeting An'er all the time! Look at how scared he is!"
Leng Lanzhi: "..."
She pinched her eyebrows and felt a little tired: "Have I ever said a word to him since you guys came together recently?"
She looked at Shen Lin'an expressionlessly: "Speaking of which, I am also very curious. Since you entered the palace, I have treated you just like my own son. Your food and clothing expenses are all set according to the highest standards. .
Except that I am a little stricter on your studies, I have not treated you badly in any other way. But why, every time you see me, do you show an expression like a mouse seeing a cat?
I never remember that I have ever punished you. "
Shen Linan was asked.
Is the princess nice to him?
He doesn't think so.
Are all the food and clothing items of the highest standard?
What is the highest specification?
He couldn't feel it.
He only knew that the princess's mother was very strict with him, just like those masters, she was so annoying and...fearful.
Every moment he spent with this princess mother, he felt extremely suffocated.
In fact, even if he was afraid of Leng Lanzhi, he was still not at the point where he wanted to hide every time he saw someone.
But since his grandmother got angry with the princess mother because of him more than half a month ago, he found that as long as he showed that he was afraid of the princess mother, his grandmother would defend him.
As soon as his grandmother defended him, the princess mother did not dare to control him.
In the past half month, except for when he went to the Royal Academy, which was very uncomfortable, he had been very relaxed at other times.
He didn't want to go back to the princess mother-in-law.
Naturally, he couldn't say this, and he couldn't think of any other reason, so he could only hesitate.
"Okay, stop scaring the children here." Mrs. Zhao said matter-of-factly: "Hurry up to the palace and beg the emperor to let An'er go back to the Royal Academy to go to school."
Xiaorou clenched her fists angrily.
Leng Lanzhi was not angry.
The moment the grandfather and grandson appeared in Jinxiu Garden, she understood what Zhao wanted to do. With mental preparation, she did not have any emotional fluctuations. She just said lightly: "Until Shen Linan corrects his attitude, I will not I entered the palace because I have no shame to ask my father."
"You!" Mrs. Zhao didn't expect Leng Lanzhi to refuse so bluntly and was very angry: "The emperor loves you the most. If you go and ask the emperor, the emperor will definitely agree. How can you be shameless? In my opinion, You just don’t like An’er!”
Leng Lanzhi chuckled and suddenly raised his eyes.
She was dark and clear in black and white, and when she looked at one place, she had the power to see through people's hearts: "You're right, I really don't like him."
"You..." Mrs. Zhao didn't expect Leng Lanzhi to admit it so generously, and she was a little speechless.
After all, in the past, no matter how much Leng Lanzhi disliked his adopted son, he would always pretend to do so.
She thought Leng Lanzhi would pretend this time, and she had already thought of her words.
But, Leng Lanzhi just admitted it!
Leng Lanzhi said indifferently: "You brought Shen Lin'an into the house. Who asked me for my opinion before throwing it to me? If a child of unknown origin is obedient and sensible, then you can raise it..."
She chuckled and looked at Shen Lin'an coolly: "My mother-in-law has also taken care of him for more than half a month. Do you think he has anything to do with the words 'obedient and sensible'?"
"Mother-in-law, think about it for a moment, if the father-in-law brings a child back from outside for no reason and says he wants to adopt him, and leaves the child to you to take care of. You have obviously done your best, but the child cries and says that you treat him badly. No, my father-in-law has quarreled with you many times because of this matter. How can you feel fond of this child?"
Leng Lanzhi filled his words with real emotions, and Zhao felt suffocated just listening to the description.
favorite?
She loves a hammer!
If such a day comes, it will be considered generous of her not to throw Ping Nanhou and the child out together!
Her face was distorted for a moment.
Shen Lin'an felt that the strength of his grandmother's hand suddenly became so strong that it hurt his chubby hand. He couldn't help but say: "Grandma, it hurts..."
When Zhao came back to her senses, she was shocked to realize that she had almost been hit.
She really couldn't tolerate it, but the problem was that the person who had this happened was Leng Lanzhi, not her, right?
Although she doesn't allow this kind of thing to happen, Leng Lanzhi...
She can tolerate it!
Even if it cannot be tolerated, it must be tolerated!
After so many years of acting, Zhao has more or less experience in acting. She quickly calmed down her emotions and put on a calm expression: "Princess, I know you have been wronged. I also know that what happened back then was our fault. We didn't Consider your mood.
It's just that now it's a foregone conclusion. You can vent your grievances to us, but you can't ignore An'er, otherwise outsiders may decide how to arrange you. "
Leng Lanzhi said indifferently: "Arrangement? Arrangement is also an arrangement for a prince-in-law. Why should I arrange it? Did I ask her to adopt a son outside? Or did I ask him to bring the child back and throw it away for two years, no matter what? ?”
Zhao choked for a moment and finally managed to keep her face from distorting.
Realizing that any high-sounding words were useless, she simply gave up making excuses and said straight to the point: "Just tell me directly, how can we ask the emperor to withdraw his order and let this child go back to the Royal Academy to attend classes?"
