Mrs. Lin sighed softly, why are everyone coming to her to cry today.
She glanced at Caichun, who immediately stood up and said with understanding, "Miss Cousin, it's not that my wife didn't help the old lady, but do you know what mistake the old lady made?"
Bai Wanrou glanced at Caichun with tearful eyes, pursed her lips and asked, "What mistake did aunt make?"
Caichun said: "The old lady had an affair with her foreigner, and the third young master happened to catch her in the act. Almost all the servants in the house were present at the time. If the master doesn't send her away, the reputation of our house will be completely ruined."
Bai Wanrou half-opened her mouth in surprise, as if she couldn't believe it, "Auntie, how could auntie have an affair with someone..."
She cried again, but this time she didn't say anything about asking Lin to help plead for mercy.
Mrs. Lin took her hand and wiped away her tears with her own hands, speaking softly, "Rou'er, the reputation of our Shangshu Mansion has been damaged. If we don't send our mother away, the reputation of our young lady will be ruined. You We are already ten years old and we will get married in a few years. Your cousin is doing this for your own good."
Bai Wanrou sobbed and nodded, "I understand, sister-in-law. It's Rou'er who is ignorant and makes sister-in-law worry."
After saying that, she saw the baby next to Lin, and was very sad that she had been taken away. "Sister-in-law, this is..."
When she mentioned Juan Juan, Mrs. Lin's expression softened and she pursed her lips and smiled, "This is Juan Juan. The little girl has been making trouble for a while and just fell asleep not long ago."
Bai Wanrou was very curious, "It's so cute. I once heard my mother say that I was skinny and small when I was born. How come Juanjuan is so cute, like the little fairy boy in the painting."
Mrs. Lin smiled and bent her eyes. What mother wouldn't like others to praise her child?
Bai Wanrou stayed for a while and then took the maid back.
On the way, she met the housekeeper's wife Zhao, who looked in a hurry.
"Ms. Cousin." Ms. Zhao stopped and saluted her.
Bai Wanrou saw a small jar in Zhao's hand, so she asked her curiously, "Mother Zhao, what is this in your hand?"
Mrs. Zhao opened the small can and revealed the goat's milk inside. "The girl the master sent yesterday refused to breastfeed, so I went to the kitchen to get some goat's milk and fed it to her."
"Huh? Did my cousin bring it back?"
Mrs. Zhao closed the milk can and sighed, "Yes, the newborn baby didn't even have a name. It was said that no one was at home, so she brought it back because of pity."
Bai Wanrou's family was killed, and she was the only one left in the family, so after hearing this, she felt a little pity for the child she had never met before. She quickly got out of the way, "Mama Zhao, please go back quickly. The baby will not be hungry." .”
Mrs. Zhao bowed and left in a hurry.
Looking at her back, Bai Wanrou sighed deeply, "My cousin and sister-in-law are really kind people. I will save many, many people like them in the future."
Maid Xiao Tao echoed, "Miss, you have a kind heart, and you will definitely become a well-known good person in the future!"
In Jiangyunxuan, Yujuanjuan woke up two hours later. When she woke up, she saw Mrs. Lin talking to Caichun, so she did not interrupt and listened silently.
Caichun told the news he heard from the servant, "My cousin met Mrs. Zhao on the way back to the yard. After returning to the yard, she asked the maid next to her to go out and buy fresh goat milk and deliver it to Mrs. Zhao."
Lin didn't speak, not knowing what he was thinking.
Miss cousin? Yu Guan Juan racked his brains and finally thought of something about this cousin.
[I think of it, she must be the Holy Mother Sister. When she saw an injured dog on the road, she would go down and bandage the dog. She had a very good relationship with the fake daughter in her previous life, and even to her death she did not believe that it was the fake daughter who caused the injury. 】
Mrs. Lin was startled, then lowered her head, and sure enough she saw the baby's delicately carved face.
【Ah, my mother found me~】
Juanjuan waved his little hands and babbling.
[When I woke up, I found that my mother was much more beautiful, hehe. 】
Mrs. Lin was amused by her thoughts. She picked up Juan Juan and rubbed her cheek against hers, "You are full of sleep, are you hungry?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she was stunned for a moment. She could always hear Juan Juan's heartfelt voice, and now she began to communicate with Juan Juan subconsciously.
【I’m hungry, I want some milk~】
Mrs. Lin asked Caichun to get the goat's milk, while she played with Juan Juan with her hands.
"Mother! My sister finally woke up!"
Yu Nanxing was about to fall asleep lying next to her. When she saw her sister woke up, she was very excited and said, "Sister, I am the fourth brother. Please call me fourth brother."
After he finished speaking, Mrs. Lin and the maids in the room were all amused. Caiying suppressed her laughter and said, "Fourth Young Master, the young lady has just been born and can't speak yet."
Only then did Yu Nanxing realize that he had made a joke and scratched his head in embarrassment.
Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly heard a milky voice.
[Is this the fourth brother? He is indeed an idiot. 】
Yu Nanxing didn't have time to think about who made the sound, but he got anxious first, "I'm not an idiot!"
Mrs. Lin glanced at him in surprise. She didn't expect that Xiaosi could also hear Juan Juan's thoughts. It seems that when San'er was crying in front of Juan Juan's bed today, she must have heard Juan Juan's thoughts about her ending. scared.
Yujuanjuan looked at his fourth brother in confusion.
【Huh? How did Fourth Brother know that I called him a fool? 】
Mrs. Lin pursed her lips, took the words calmly, and rubbed Xiaosi's head, "Okay, no one will call you an idiot."
Yu Nanxing scratched his head, looking around a bit strangely, and finally looked at the infant Yu Juan Juan.
That sound just now... couldn't have come from my little sister.
Hmm...not sure, listen again.
[The third brother and the fourth brother are twins, they look alike. 】
[By the way, I don’t know when I will see my eldest brother. I heard that he is very handsome, hehe. 】
Yu Nanxing curled his lips unconvinced. He will definitely be more handsome than his eldest brother when he grows up!
Mrs. Lin thought to herself that her eldest son was in the palace as the prince's companion, and her second son was in the military camp with General Qin. He didn't go home very often on weekdays. If Juan Juan wanted to see him, he might have to wait for a few days.
January flies by.
A big event happened this month. The current queen gave birth to a pair of twins, a dragon and a phoenix. This was a good omen in the Jiang Kingdom, and the emperor was very happy.
I heard that the little princess Ice and Snow was cute, so the emperor was coaxed to go to Kunning Palace often this month.
When Yu Guan Juan heard the news from his father, he tilted his head in confusion.
In the story the Queen Mother told her, didn't the Queen Mother only give birth to an eighth prince?
Could it be that she remembered it wrong?
Forget it, today is her full moon party, so I have to join in the fun~
Yu Guan Juan waved her little hands and asked Caichun to dress her. In the past month, she ate and slept, and her chubby face became more rounded, like a fat koi doll.
Guests arrived in the front yard, and the yard was bustling with activity.
Yu Guan Juan was carried all the way to the front hall. She poked her head in Mrs. Lin's arms. She was so cute that several ladies who were friends with Mrs. Lin couldn't help hugging her again and again, and touching her again and again.
Mrs. Qin from the General's Mansion was close friends with Mrs. Lin. When she saw Juan Juan, she became very curious and hugged him without letting go.
"Jingyue, you are so good at giving birth. Little Juanjuanjing picks the best between you and the one in your family. I think when you grow up, the threshold of your family will be broken by those who want to marry you."
Mrs. Lin covered her lips and smiled like a flower, "It's not as exaggerated as you said. By the way, how is Shuyan's marriage? Isn't the date set for the eighth day of next month?"
Mrs. Qin nodded, "Yes, there is still one month and one day left."
Ms. Lin couldn't help but sigh, "Children grow up so fast. In my mind, she was still a baby. Who knew that Shuyan would grow into a big girl in the blink of an eye."
Juan Juan tilted his head, thoughtfully.
[Is the mother and this aunt talking about Qin Shuyan, the most talented woman in the capital? 】
[I remember that she was humiliated to death in a beggar's den in the south of the city one month before the wedding. 】
Mrs. Lin's smile faltered. She looked at Mrs. Qin who was still happy about her daughter's marriage, and her heart felt as if a big hand had pinched her hard.
[Oh, by the way, the masculine prince of Prince Xuan’s house whom Qin Shuyan was going to marry was bumped into by Qin Shuyan during a private meeting with his adulterer in Fuliu Lane. 】
[Prince Xuan was afraid that the news about Qin Shuyan would spread, so he never stopped doing anything. Together with the adulterer, he drugged Qin Shuyan and threw her into a beggar's den. He watched helplessly as she was humiliated to death by a group of beggars before leaving with peace of mind. 】
Mrs. Lin's heart was clenched. She liked Shuyan very much. She had a great temperament and behaved according to the rules. When she came to chat with her two years ago, she even smiled and said that she wanted to join the court and become a female official. Shuying wanted her to accept her. He made a promise to her, but who knew...
It would be fine if she didn't know. Now that she knows, Mrs. Lin can't just watch Shuyan jump into the fire pit. But how should she tell Shuying? She can't say that she heard Juanjuan's heart...
[When I learned about this, my second brother fell off the stage where he was practicing and broke a leg. Since then, he has been drinking and dreaming all day long. In the end, the fake daughter found a girl who looked very similar to Qin Shuyan. The second brother did not hesitate to break up with the family because of the dancer. 】
[In the end, I made my mother so angry that she couldn’t even get sick, no! I want to protect the best mother, and I don’t agree with this marriage! 】
Lin's eyes were a little hot, and she felt very comforted. Although the ending of Shuyan's girl and her second son made her sad, Juanjuan's protection made her heart warm.
Her eyes were red and she thought:
God must have seen that their family had lived a very miserable life in their previous life, so he sent them a little lucky star.
Mrs. Lin calmed down, and she quickly calmed down.
She currently has no evidence, so she can't directly tell Shuying that Prince Xuan has a problem. She can use the reason of visiting Shuyan to prevent Shuyan from going out, but she can stop the first grade but not the fifteenth. If it can't be solved at once , that Shuyan girl will have to jump into the fire pit sooner or later.
Yu Guan Juan was also thinking about this problem, she sighed and thought to herself.
[It would be great if Aunt Qin could see the true face of Prince Xuan with her own eyes. 】
Lin's eyes lit up when she heard Juan Juan's words.
Just now Juanjuan said that Crown Prince Xuan's adulterer was in Fuliu Lane, so she could make an appointment with Shuying to go to Fuliu Lane and let Shuying see her daughter being murdered with her own eyes, then the matter would be resolved.
Mrs. Lin was in a good mood. If there weren't so many people here, she would have wanted to pick up Juan Juan and give him a good kiss.
Juanjuan noticed Mrs. Lin's eager eyes looking at her and was still confused.
[How come my mother is so sad and happy at the same time? Hey, my mother is looking at me. I don’t care, just smile at my mother first~]
