Compared with the Qing Palace, the flavor of the Lin Mansion can be said to be very strong, and the genius is bright, and Lin Ling was woken up.

Several seven or eight-year-old boys and girls rushed into her room, put their cold little hands into Lin Ling's quilt, and shouted: "Big sister, big sister, get up and build a snowman!" ”

Looking at the three or four ice carved pink dolls, Lin Ling reacted at this time, these are a few children of the Lin Mansion, and she will be their titular eldest sister in the future. Lin Ling rubbed his sleepy eyes, looked at Qiao'er who ran in with a panicked face, and said with a smile: "You take a few of them out to play first, and I'll clean up myself." ”

A few children still wanted to make trouble, but seeing that Lin Ling was really still half-asleep, they had no choice but to go out with Qiao'er.

Lin Ling rubbed the corners of her eyes, she tossed for most of the night last night, she only slept for two hours, and she was still sleepy. But there is no way, today is Chinese New Year's Eve, and I have to deal with this group of little radish heads, so I have to dress and wash before going out the door. The messy footprints at the door last night had been obscured by the newly fallen snowflakes, and only the footprints of children stretched from the side of the road.

"Eldest sister, there are guests in the house today, you hurry up, your father and mother are waiting for you." A thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl suddenly rushed to Lin Ling's side, grabbed Lin Ling's wrist and walked into the front hall. Lin Ling thought for a while and knew that this was the eldest lady of the Lin Mansion, called Lin Yiyu, and now she herself had become the daughter of the Lin Mansion for some reason, but she had suppressed this serious eldest lady. But looking at the girl's appearance, I didn't care at all.

"Sister, those little guys are already naughty, and this Chinese New Year will not stop, and when I catch them, I will definitely teach them a good lesson!" Lin Yiyu said angrily, glanced at Lin Ling again, and said cautiously, "The guests who came today are Mrs. Chen and Chen Huiniang, eldest sister, you have to be careful." ”

Lin Ling's eyes widened, it was strange enough that someone came as a guest on Chinese New Year's Eve, but I didn't expect it to be someone from the Chen Mansion! It seems that they came to see her on purpose. Long Yuze looked at her so closely, Chen Huiniang must be very curious about who robbed her of the position of princess, right?

Seeing Lin Ling's solemn face, Lin Yiyu said again: "Eldest sister, you are now the eldest lady of our Lin family, the future second princess, Chen Huiniang is just a side concubine, eldest sister don't have to worry too much." Besides, my father and mother are also here, so they won't be fine. ”

"Yiyu, thank you, I'm not afraid, eldest sister." Lin Ling raised her head and said, but she was amazed in her heart, she had adapted to the sudden identity of the eldest lady of the Lin family so quickly, should it be said that she was too adaptable, and that she was not long-sighted?

The Lin Mansion is not big, and the main hall is not half the size of the Qing Palace, Lin Ling didn't have the heart to look here, and followed Lin Yiyu in. There were several people sitting in the hall, Mrs. Lin and Lord Lin sat on the main seat, and Mrs. Chen and Chen Huiniang sat on the left side.

Lin Ling is willing to be the princess of the second prince, just because she wants to achieve her desired life in another way, so she doesn't care about having one more woman to share her future with her, but she still can't help but sneak a glance at Chen Huiniang opposite. The woman was slender, and a lilac dress showed her figure vividly, not like most of the shriveled figures of this era. Her appearance is also first-class, her eyebrows and eyes are picturesque, and her lips are like cherries, she is really a big beauty.

Mrs. Lin's face was a little embarrassed, and she asked Lin Ling about food, clothing, housing and transportation, and asked her if she was still adaptable, and Lin Ling also answered them one by one. But I always felt that there were several eyes on my body and face, and I didn't need to look up to know who it was.

Chen Huiniang admired the second prince wholeheartedly, but the second prince has been dragging out and unwilling to marry, so she is also reluctant to leave the cabinet, so that she is now eighteen years old, although she is still beautiful, but there is a fly in the ointment - in this era, most of the eighteen-year-old women have given birth to babies. She looked at Lin Ling, who was ordinary-looking and petite, and couldn't help but pull the handkerchief in her hand fiercely.

She Chen Huiniang was able to marry the second prince, thanks to this Lin Ling, but she could only be a side concubine, also because of this Lin Ling!

Mrs. Chen looked at Lin Ling, and said with a smile: "No wonder the second prince has been dragging his feet and unwilling to get married, it turned out that he fell in love with the eldest lady of the Lin family. ”

Lin Ling's body has been stunted since he was a child, if it weren't for Lin Ling's desperate efforts to supplement nutrition in the past three years, I'm afraid he would only look like he was ten years old. Compared with Chen Huiniang sitting opposite, she is like a yellow-haired girl who has been malnourished for a long time, and it is no wonder that their mother and daughter are resentful. It is indeed a bit embarrassing to be compared to a woman like her, who is not outstanding.

Mrs. Lin and Mrs. Chen have always been good friends, but because of Lin Ling, there is a bit of estrangement between the two. Seeing that Mrs. Chen was mocking Lin Ling without caring about her face, she couldn't help but laugh and said: "Ling'er just passed the line, but she just doesn't like to dress up, since the second prince likes Ling'er, then Ling'er naturally has something that the second prince likes." We, as elders, can only be blessed, aren't we? ”

Mrs. Chen's eyes were cold, and she sneered: "The position of these two princesses is not something that anyone can do. Ling'er, if the people in the palace don't listen to the rules in the future, you can ask your sister Huiniang. Over the years, I have also taught her a lot of housekeeping skills, and I think those things in the palace will not be difficult for her......"

Hearing this, Lin Ling's smile finally couldn't be suppressed. This Mrs. Chen's temperament is really impatient, and she unceremoniously revealed Chen Huiniang's desire to be a concubine in front of so many people. It has always been the concubine who presides over the affairs of the house, even if she is embarrassed, she will never ask a side concubine for help, right?

Chen Huiniang was also a little annoyed, pulled Mrs. Chen's sleeve, bit her lip and said, "Mother, you don't talk more!" The daughter and Ling'er will serve the prince together in the future, they are sisters, and they have something to say, I wonder if Mrs. Lin can let Huiniang go to Ling'er's room to drink a cup of tea? ”

"I happen to have some good tea there, if Sister Huiniang doesn't dislike it, let's go sit for a while." Lin Lingwei smiled and looked at Chen Huiniang without fear, she was really a little curious about what this woman wanted to tell her.

Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Lin both nodded, so Lin Ling took Chen Huiniang very affectionately to the courtyard where she lived temporarily.

"You've picked up a good daughter for nothing." Mrs. Chen's mouth was sour, and she couldn't help but say as she looked at the backs of the two sisters leaving. No matter from which point of view, her Hui Niang is more prominent than this little girl who came out of nowhere, why should she be trampled under her feet?

Mrs. Lin shook her head and said: "Hui Niang is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and has martial arts, no matter what, she really shouldn't be a side concubine." It's just that this kid is too stubborn to marry the second prince......"

"Really?" Mrs. Chen hooked the corners of her mouth, with a wry smile on her face, if she could, she would rather her daughter marry a small family as a wife than her daughter marry the royal family as a side concubine.
