The corners of Lin Qingge's lips raised into a naughty smile, and her steps turned in the opposite direction unconsciously.
But as soon as she took two steps out, Mother Wu's voice sounded behind her: "Young madam, the old madam is still waiting for you."
It wasn't a big deal. Madam Chu wouldn't call her back in a hurry, so she could only continue to wait.
It's easier for him!
She looked away at Qingzhu Garden, nodded slightly to Nanny Wu, and walked towards Songhe Garden again.
Just as she stepped into the courtyard, a thought flashed through her mind. Luo Qing and Luo Hong were both orphans adopted by Su Yunting. Could the message delivered to her be what Su Yunting wanted to deliver?
She finds herself in a paradoxical state when every possibility could be true.
She originally wanted to have a right-hand man and not have to be controlled by others, but now she found that she could not completely trust Luo Qing and Luo Hong.
"My granddaughter-in-law has met my grandmother." Lin Qingge walked into the house and saluted Mrs. Chu.
Mrs. Chu leaned on the soft couch and waved to Lin Qingge, motioning for her to come to her side.
After Lin Qingge sat down, the servants and ladies in the room left the room, and Mrs. Chu slowly spoke: "Prince Qi is getting married soon. Have you thought about what gift to give him?"
Aren’t there rules for this kind of thing? Just let the housekeeper arrange it?
Lin Qingge's mind turned around and he realized what he was doing.
On Zhou Chengzhang's wedding, it was one thing for the Chu family to send congratulatory gifts as courtiers, but Zhou Chengzhang married Lin Qiuyue, and as her sister Lin Qingge, it had to put a lot of thought into it.
She thought for a moment before speaking: "Grandma, did the imperial concubine arrange for someone to come?"
"Yes." Mrs. Chu nodded, with a loving smile on her face, "Concubine An and Mrs. Lin are sisters and have a close relationship. Now they are going to become in-laws, so they are very concerned about etiquette, so she specially proposed, I want you to accompany Lin Qiuyue to the palace to meet her once before their wedding."
What is this custom?
Lin Qingge didn't understand, but instinctively thought it was not a good thing.
Not to mention Mrs. Lin and Lin Qiuyue, Zhou Chengzhang is also a person with a deer head and rat eyes. How can his biological mother be a good person?
"Can you not go, Grandma?"
Her tentative inquiry triggered a helpless smile on Mrs. Chu's face: "I'm afraid it won't work."
"Is it really not possible? I didn't meet my husband-in-law during our wedding. Wouldn't it be inappropriate to meet another newlywed couple so soon?"
She didn't know much about the etiquette and customs of marriage, but there seemed to be a saying in her memory that it was best for newlyweds not to see each other.
Mrs. Chu's eyes became more and more helpless, but her gesture of patting her hand was full of kindness: "There is indeed a saying that the woman who was worried about pregnancy collided with the bride."
"..."
Lin Qingge understood everything just by saying "pregnancy".
Chu Nanfeng was unconscious. No one could understand her current situation, that is, there were lice on the top of her bald head.
If there is really any special situation, it would be another story of soaking in a pig cage.
Sighing, she lowered her head, understanding that she would definitely not be able to escape this time.
But she suddenly realized something was wrong, and raised her eyes to look at Mrs. Chu: "Grandma called me back, isn't it just for this matter?"
Mrs. Chu sighed helplessly again: "The Chu family is in troubled times now, and you..."
She paused for a moment and then said something else: "Qingge, I don't shy away from it. The Chu family married you for joy that day, which was wrong. Now your smile is flourishing, and you yourself have regained your appearance. Chu. It’s a mistake for my family to keep you here, but grandma doesn’t want you to leave, can you understand?”
Why can't you understand it?
Humans are animals that seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. When all hopes fail, it is only natural to expect God to show a way.
Some things, even if they are wrong, cannot be avoided.
"Grandma is serious. If I hadn't come to the Chu family in a sedan chair that day, I might not even know where the body is buried now."
This is not an excuse for her to get married, but some things are destined.
Even if the Chu family's motives were impure, they were expecting Chu Nanfeng to wake up and didn't really want to do anything to her, but the Lin family was different, they really wanted to kill her!
"Then, can you not leave the Chu family?" Mrs. Chu's eyes were full of expectation.
Lin Qingge was suddenly at a loss for a moment when she saw those eyes.
It has always been her dream to see the bigger world.
Now because she is tied up by various things, she can only stay in the capital, but her dream is to leave after Chu Nanfeng leaves.
How could Mrs. Chu know about her little thoughts?
In this era, women like her who want to be free from their husband's family are cast aside by thousands of people. Most people would not think about it, and Mrs. Chu should not think about it.
She lowered her eyes slightly, hiding the emotional changes in her eyes, and her voice remained unchanged: "What are you talking about, grandma? Where else can I go after leaving the Chu family? The Lin family? That's a place that eats people without spitting out their bones. I don't know how to do that." Go back. Isn't it grandma who wants to drive me away?"
At the end of the sentence, her voice revealed the coquettishness that only a little girl can have.
Mrs. Chu looked at her and stretched out her hand to push the candied fruit on the table in front of her: "Why would grandma let you leave? You are an extraordinary woman. I am afraid that the four walls of the Chu family will stop you after all. .”
"What are you talking about, grandma? Without the four walls of the Chu family, where would I have a roof over my head?"
"Then why don't you stay? Grandma believes that as long as Nan Feng wakes up, he will definitely treat you well, and you will definitely be satisfied with him. A good son like him will not let you down. Bi His kind son is rare to find in this world."
Praising one's juniors is something every elder will do, let alone a junior as glorious as Feng Lang Ju Xu? Not only is it worthy of praise from the elders, but future generations will talk about it every day.
However, Lin Qingge still noticed the implication: "Did grandma hear something?"
She smiled and picked up a candied fruit and brought it to Mrs. Chu's mouth: "Master Su Jiu is a bohemian man, loves to joke, and the outside world likes to catch rumors. If word spreads out, it's hard to tell how much he has changed."
"Then he gave you a wedding dress?"
"It's nothing more than a gift from Mr. Su because he thinks I'm similar to his daughter."
"Then you won't leave the Chu family?"
It's naturally good to stay. She has the title of general's wife and Mrs. Chu is protecting her, but...
All the premises are a bit putting the cart before the horse, right?
She stood up with a smile: "My granddaughter-in-law knows what my grandmother is worried about. It's just that we don't know what my husband is thinking, so there is no need to worry about it. Maybe my husband will wake up and say that he has already fallen in love with someone, but I, Jiuzhan Que, Nest."
Without giving Mrs. Chu a chance to respond, she turned and left, and her smile disappeared instantly.
Su Yunting was indeed a mischievous person, but he did not really want to damage her reputation, so the wedding dress was given in extremely secretive ways. How did Mrs. Chu know about it?
