"Ying'er, your mother doesn't go out for a walk, why don't you go out for a walk? You should go to the palace more often to spend time with the Ai family."
The Queen Mother only glanced at Lian Suisui and then looked away, as if she had not seen her.
Lian Suisui's idea was instantly extinguished.
Also, due to the reputation of the original owner, Mrs. Qin rarely attended gatherings between ladies. When ladies held gatherings in the capital, they would often bring their girls with them. Taking her out would cause trouble.
"Everyone, get up."
A faint female voice sounded above her head. Lian Suisui raised his head and glanced. The old lady of the Qin family glanced at her and Lian Xiaoxiao and looked at Lian Fangyu.
"There are women in the back house, and the uncle and the others are in the front."
The old lady's attitude in driving people away was very clear, and she did not save Lian Fangyu any face.
Lian Fangyu was thick-skinned and said with a smile: "Today is my mother's birthday. My son-in-law comes to pay homage to his mother first and then goes to look for me."
The old lady hummed and said, "This is not the first time for you to come to the Qin family. If I don't take advantage of you, you can go there by yourself."
Lian Fangyu should be handed over.
"Sui Sui, listen to your mother and don't cause trouble for your mother, you know?"
Before he left, he didn't forget to tell Lian Suisui, and Lian Suisui agreed and watched him go out of the room.
The old lady looked at the sisters again with disgust and looked away.
Lian Suisui: "..."
She is incompetent, Lian Xiaoxiao is a concubine and has nothing to do with the Qin family. The old lady doesn't even like their father, so how can she like the two sisters?
Heartbroken.
Lian Suisui sat obediently on the chair without saying a word.
There were two women who were about the same age as her mother, probably her two aunts, and a little girl who was about the same age as her. Everyone was talking to the Queen Mother and Mrs. Qin, and no one paid attention to them.
Lian Xiao rubbed her sleeves nervously, looked up and looked around and then lowered her head. Lian Suisui was thinking, no wonder her mother didn't bring her to Qin's house, no one welcomed her!
Lian Suisui stared at the door boredly. The door curtain used in summer was made of silk. If someone approached from outside, it would cast a shadow on the door curtain.
A pea-green pattern was cast on the door curtain, and a beautiful maid opened the curtain and came in to report: "The Queen Mother, old lady, King Cheng and Princess Cheng have arrived."
The conversation at the table fell silent for a moment, and Lian Suisui, who was lost in thought, was startled. Everyone's eyes were on her, making her the protagonist in an instant.
"The third child..." The Queen Mother paused and said with a smile, "The third child is smart and knows how to come in advance. Let them in."
The Queen Mother spoke, and the maid looked at the old lady, opened the curtain and invited King Cheng and Weng Ling'er to come in.
"Greetings to grandma, greetings to the old lady, and wishing the old lady happiness, longevity, health and longevity."
"My lord and princess, please get up quickly, I'm sorry."
King Cheng and Weng Ling'er actually knelt on the mat and kowtowed to the old lady, which frightened the old lady Qin and hurriedly stood up to help them.
"He is a junior, and it is not appropriate to kowtow to an elder sister!"
The Queen Mother grabbed Mrs. Qin and said, "Besides, he will soon marry Miss Third, and he will be your grandson-in-law then. Today is your birthday, so he should kowtow to you!"
Lian Suisui sighed in her heart, hey, judging from the Queen Mother's attitude, she probably doesn't like her either. People who are close to her call her Suisui, and those who are not close to her call her Miss Lian San.
The Queen Mother didn't even mention her when she first walked in!
But King Cheng is the grandson of the Queen Mother, so he naturally wants to say good things to his grandson in front of the old lady.
King Cheng smiled and agreed: "Grandma is right, the old lady can bear the courtesy of the younger generation!"
He was really thick-skinned, and he didn't feel embarrassed even if he forced himself on her. He looked at Lian Suisui with gentle eyes.
Lian Suisui felt a chill. In front of her elders, could you please stop looking at her like that?
This is misleading!
It was okay not to mention Lian Suisui, but when it was mentioned, the old lady's attitude became even more indifferent.
"Boss daughter-in-law, second daughter-in-law, you two should stop guarding me here. Go outside to see if any other guests have come to the door. Entertain the guests well. The princess is of high status, so don't be rude."
The old lady is chasing people away.
There are not many guests coming to visit today, and most of them are just going through the motions. After paying their birthdays, they are led to the flower hall not far away, where they can have tea or chat.
Not long after King Cheng and his wife left, King Yun and Princess Yun came to the door.
After going through the procedure, Princess Huirong arrived.
"I wish the old lady happiness as long as the East China Sea and longevity as the Nanshan Mountain!"
"Hui Rong is here too, please sit down for a while."
The Queen Mother is not very enthusiastic about Princess Huirong, but she can't tell from her face.
"Thank you, Queen Mother."
"How is your health lately? I heard about that dangerous incident..."
The Queen Mother asked, and Lian Suisui was confused, how could a mother not know the condition of her child? If she hadn't rescued her on the street that time, Princess Huirong would have been dead long ago by the time the doctor came over. Why did she just ask so calmly now if they were her biological mother and daughter?
There was no aggrieved look on Princess Huirong's face, and she smiled lightly and said, "Recently, Suisui has been helping me with my treatment, and I feel much better."
The Queen Mother and Mrs. Qin followed her gaze and looked over.
"I have long heard that Miss Lian San seemed to be a completely different person after that palace banquet. She suddenly learned medical skills. I thought it was someone else who made it up..."
Didn't expect it to be true?
This is questioning Lian Suisui's medical skills.
"Mother, Sui Sui's medical skills are really good. My daughter had a heart attack on the street that time. If it hadn't been for Sui Sui, my daughter might have died by now."
Princess Huirong took out the small porcelain bottle she carried with her.
"Look, Queen Mother, these are the pills that Suisui made for me. Take one pill as soon as possible in an emergency, and it will relieve the symptoms. You don't have to worry about the situation that day happening again."
"What medicine is so powerful?"
The Queen Mother took it over and looked at it suspiciously, then put it under her nose and smelled it.
"Queen Mother, be careful..."
The nun next to the Queen Mother stopped the Queen Mother's movement. Princess Hui Rong was stunned for a moment, and said with an embarrassed smile: "It's my fault. The Queen Mother is in good health, so naturally she can't touch such things."
"Qinghe, put the medicine away."
Princess Huirong handed the porcelain bottle to Qinghe and brought back the divergent topic.
"Mother, my daughter feels very good now even without the medicine from the imperial doctor. It is all the result of years of hard work!"
Princess Huirong really liked Lian Suisui. Although the Queen Mother didn't understand, she didn't say much.
"It's fine if you think it's good. Isn't there a folk saying, a black cat or a white cat, the one that catches mice is a good cat. If you are weak, you'd better ask the imperial doctor to check your pulse every day for peace of mind."
The Queen Mother made it clear that she did not believe in Lian Suisui's medical skills, and Princess Hui Rong could not say anything more, so she nodded in agreement.
"The Queen Mother, the old lady, the old lady of Yongding House and the Crown Prince's wife are here."
More and more people came. Princess Huirong stood up and said, "Queen Mother, old lady, I'll go out first."
Sister Chen is here?
Poor Lian Suisui finally found his savior.
After the two Chen sisters finished paying their birthday wishes to the old lady, they slipped out of the old lady's room.
"Cousin from the Chen family, cousin Yan Xin!"
"Two cousins!"
The girl who had been silent in the room also came out. She and Lian Suisui spoke at the same time. Lian Suisui looked over, her expression changed, she gave her a look, and went around to entangle Chen Wanli.
"Cousin, why are you here? I'm almost bored to death!"
