Lingdang is very similar to her before. She follows everyone else's advice and doesn't know her goals and directions. As long as someone gives a little guidance, she can live like a human being.
Although Su Qing could not predict Xie Shuting's sincerity, she could adjust her mentality and make herself relaxed.
Su Qing, well done.
Lan Caiwei on the other side finally saw the Queen Mother. Lan Caiwei remembered the prince's instructions and tried to act well-behaved and sensible.
She also has a lot of experience in disguise.
"Greetings to the Queen Mother!" Lan Caiwei spoke in a high voice, looking quite smart and cute.
But the Queen Mother didn't seem to buy it: "Lan Caiwei, I have received all the gifts you gave me. They are all very expensive gifts."
Lan Caiwei immediately flattered her: "Of course it is valuable. How can it be compared to the Queen Mother's noble status if it is not precious?"
Lan Caiwei just likes to choose nice words to praise. She thinks that everything is to enjoy the feeling of being praised.
"However, it is really not practical enough. It is quite suspicious that the embroidered pillow is a rotten straw bag." The Queen Mother added.
When Lan Caiwei heard this, she couldn't hold back the smile on her face: "How could it be? If the Queen Mother doesn't like it, I can try to change it to some practical gifts!"
Lan Caiwei reacted very quickly, fearing that the Queen Mother would be dissatisfied.
Her desire to survive is quite strong. From Xie Shuting's point of view, the Queen Mother is the one who can influence his thoughts and actions.
Therefore, Lan Caiwei attaches great importance to the relationship between her and the Queen Mother, and knows that she should work hard to build a good relationship with the Queen Mother.
But many things are easy to think about but very difficult to do.
The Queen Mother immediately retorted: "There is no shortage of things in the Ai family. I'm afraid that if you give it away, it will be in vain."
The Queen Mother really doesn't give her any face, Lan Caiwei thought to herself.
I have to admit that the Queen Mother's malice and rejection have become quite obvious. Lan Caiwei can't help but think too much. Could it be related to Amelia Su?
Was Amelia Su secretly trying to sow discord between her and the Queen Mother? Good luck to you Su Qing, Lan Caiwei will remember this for her.
The smile on Lan Caiwei's face was almost unbearable: "Well... Queen Mother, it's better to be prepared for many things than not to have them at all. Being prepared for a rainy day is tricky, but it's necessary."
The Queen Mother couldn't help but said: "Lan Caiwei is not staying at the Prince's Mansion, so she came to my place to join in the fun. What is her purpose?"
The Queen Mother really asked this question knowingly. The Queen Mother obviously knew what she was thinking about Xie Shuting, but she pretended not to know. She couldn't let her speak with such words, and Lan Caiwei seemed a little difficult to handle.
"Well... the Queen Mother is a highly respected figure in the palace. It is only natural for me to come to visit and accompany you." Lan Caiwei tried to calm down.
Take a deep breath, she can definitely handle the Queen Mother!
But the Queen Mother didn't seem to buy it at all, snorting coldly: "No need. The Ai family doesn't have that blessing, and the Ai family can't afford it."
Facing the Queen Mother's constant targeting, Lan Caiwei still felt a little frustrated, but the necessary peace was very important. If she fell out with the Queen Mother here and spread the word, she would really have no place to stand.
Lan Caiwei was still smiling: "The Queen Mother is serious."
The Queen Mother began to issue an eviction order: "Lan Caiwei, if you have nothing else to do, you can leave."
No matter how dull Lan Caiwei was, she could sense her intentions, so she had no choice but to leave in despair.
The Queen Mother didn't like her, probably because she was more inclined to Su Qing. In addition, the Queen Mother could see through Lan Caiwei's character at a glance.
It's just following the trend, how can it be true?
Even if he was sincere, such pretentiousness was not suitable for Xie Shuting.
The angry Lan Caiwei ate the fruits of her grievances at the Queen Mother, and had nowhere to vent her inner depression, so she went to trouble Su Qing again.
If I'm not happy, Su Qing, you won't be happy either. With such unwillingness, Lan Caiwei just wants to secretly peel off a layer of Su Qing's skin.
Lan Caiwei feels quite bad now. There is a feeling of grievance in her heart that is difficult to express. She is helpless now.
The Queen Mother must have accepted Amelia Su’s instigation!
Lan Caiwei angrily marched to the Third Prince's Mansion!
After Xie Shuting learned about it, he had some vague expectations. He really didn't know how Amelia Su would behave.
Lan Caiwei is not a fuel-efficient lamp, I am afraid that Su Qing will suffer this time.
Qiu Da was worried about Su Qing and couldn't help but said to Xie Shuting: "Your Majesty, will Madam be bullied by Miss Lan this time? Do you want to help Madam?"
Xie Shuting immediately thought that Qiu Da was looking down on Su Qing. Su Qing could not be bullied so easily. Her ideological level was far higher than that of Lan Caiwei.
Otherwise, how could Su Qing be favored by the Queen Mother but not Lan Caiwei?
It's just that he doesn't know how much hypocrisy and how much true love there is in Su Qing's efforts. He also feels that he cannot see through Su Qing, and he feels that he cannot fall easily.
Whether it's Su Qing or Lan Caiwei, they are only temporarily valuable.
On this point, Xie Shuting saw it quite clearly.
"Qiu Da, you underestimated Su Qing. She is much stronger than you think. Think about it, she is a woman who can open a restaurant to prosperity. Can ordinary people do it?" Xie Shuting asked.
"But Your Majesty, are you just going to stand by and watch if Madam has the ability to protect herself? This is a matter of Your Majesty's attitude!" Qiu Da explained.
It turns out that this is the reason why Qiu Da asked him to help Su Qing, because he wanted him to express his position.
"But Qiu Da is proud of being favored, you know? I have my own sense of proportion in this matter." Xie Shuting looked like he couldn't say anything.
Xie Shuting knew very well that whether he went or not would not have much impact. Lan Caiwei was not Su Qing's opponent, and Su Qing was very capable of protecting herself.
He was quite certain of this in his heart.
Therefore, he is more confident than standing by and watching.
Zhang Yisong hadn't seen Su Qing for a long time, so he couldn't help but miss him in his heart. Missing is a very lingering thing that follows him everywhere like a shadow...
Zhang Yisong started to take action as soon as he thought of it. He didn't want to just watch Su Qing from the side and do nothing.
He hoped that he could take some action to make Su Qing see him and notice him, but just treat him as a dispensable air-like existence.
This is Zhang Yisong's little thought.
When Su Qing saw Zhang Yisong, she remembered the advice from the Queen Mother and the old nanny that it was important to stay away from people from the Second Prince's group.
Otherwise, Xie Shuting would inevitably be embarrassed.
"The flowers are everywhere, the cup is full of wine, and you are free in the vast expanse of waves." Zhang Yisong took the initiative to speak, but this sentence instantly attracted Su Qing's attention.
"Wonderful. Does Zhang Yisong have any tips for opening a restaurant?" Su Qing asked.
