In the evening of this day, Mrs. Shu was talking with Mama An about whether the token of the Shu family's housewife should be handed over to Lin Mei now, one of them agreed, and the other resolutely refused, thinking that Lin Mei was still too immature to take on this big responsibility.

"You have been with me for so many years, and you know that there has never been a reversal of what I have identified, so there is no need to persuade ......" Mrs. Shu's expression was flat, and she reached out and picked a Qionghua that was blooming nearby, and enjoyed it carefully.

When Mama An saw Mrs. Shu's gesture, she knew that it would be useless to say more, but it would cause Mrs. Shu to be even more displeased, so she closed her mouth and stopped talking.

Lin Mei also followed Qingying to Mrs. Shu's courtyard at this time, this is her first time here, and the curtain house is completely different from the KitKat, the bonsai pavilion in this courtyard gives people a feeling of a simple atmosphere, and Mrs. Shu's temperament does not match at all, at a glance, you can know that this is the preference of Master Shu.

"Mrs. Shu......" As soon as Lin Mei entered the courtyard, she saw Mrs. Shu who was admiring the flowers, so she slowly bowed, with a decent smile on her face and a dignified demeanor, which was worthy of the teachings of Mama Rong Xi in the past few days.

"Miss Lin is here." Mrs. Shu's originally uncertain expression suddenly became warm, and she smiled like a spring breeze.

Lin Mei nodded, although she didn't show anything on her face, she was very frightened in her heart.

Mrs. Shu walked over slowly, her skirt swayed to the ground, she twisted the Qionghua branch in her hand, with a light smile on the corner of her mouth, and walked directly to Lin Mei's side and inserted the Qionghua in her hand into her hair bun, her voice was clear, and it seemed that she was in a good mood today.

"It is said that people are more delicate than flowers, and Miss Lin inserted this Qionghua, which is indeed more delicate than a hundred flowers."

Lin Mei was stunned, so she had to deal with it with a smile, "Thank you Mrs. Shu for the compliment, I think Miss Shu is also very different from other young ladies, presumably because of Mrs. Shu's temperament." ”

"Rong Xi has taught you for a few days, but you can talk a lot......" Mrs. Shu covered her mouth and chuckled, a trace of sentimentality slipped through her eyes, and her voice also deepened, "You don't have to flatter me, I don't know Yu Jin's temperament?" Like Wen Jin and Wangjin, they were born to me, but they are the most unattractive of the three, but their temperament is still with me, but everyone dared to marry her in the capital back then......"

"However, I think Miss Shu is quite happy now, Lord Zhao loves Miss Shu so much, she doesn't even have a partial concubine room." Lin Mei said in a solemn manner, and she really thought the same thing in her heart.

Mrs. Shu smiled reluctantly, and the smile on the corner of her mouth became weak, "Don't talk about this, I asked you to come here today for another matter." ”

"Mrs. Shu, please say, I will obey the rules." Lin Mei's face became serious, because when Mrs. Shu finished saying this, even Qingying and Mama An retreated, leaving her and Mrs. Shu alone here.

Mrs. Shu chuckled and shook her head, for some reason there was a trace of tiredness on her face, and she looked a little older than usual.

"Although I really don't like you very much, Wang Jin is right, you are different from other ladies in the capital, so ......" Mrs. Shu paused when she said this, and the smile on the corner of her mouth couldn't help but deepen, "Miss Lin, are you capable of the position of the housewife of the Shu family?" ”

Lin Mei was still very embarrassed when she heard the first few words, after all, her identity was indeed too different from Shu Wangjin, and it was understandable that Mrs. Shu and Master Shu didn't like her, if it was before, she never dared to marry into such a high-door compound as the head of the house, but when she heard Mrs. Shu's last few words, the whole person suddenly froze there.

"What does Miss Lin think? Can you do it? Mrs. Shu didn't care about Lin Mei's stiff attitude and expression at this time, she was not in a hurry, she just waited quietly for her reply.

Lin Mei twisted her stiff neck, only then did she realize that she couldn't twist it back, so she sighed softly, and tears instantly broke out in the corners of her eyes, "Hmm! ”

"Miss Lin has thought about it?" Mrs. Shu was originally surprised that Lin Mei came to her senses so quickly, but when she turned around, she saw Lin Mei holding her neck with both hands, her eyes were full of tears, and she looked at her with a pitiful expression.

“……”

Lin Mei saw that Mrs. Shu didn't want to pay attention to herself at all, so she endured the pain and said firmly, "Of course I'm willing!" ”

As for whether it is up to the task? Isn't there Shu Wangjin and Liu Yufei, it's just that Shu Wangjin wants to change his mind, Liu Yufei wants to get married, and it will take so long to go, maybe Mrs. Shu and Master Shu have already burped at that time! Maybe Shufu will be her alone in the world by then!

"In that case...... Mrs. Shu's face looked much better, and even her eyes had a look better than before, "then ......"

Lin Mei rubbed her battered neck, sniffed, tried to hold back the tears in the corners of her eyes, pursed her mouth and gave Mrs. Shu a smile that was hard to see, this was the only thing she could do now.

Mrs. Shu didn't care about Lin Mei's ugly look now, and slowly took out a finely carved jade bracelet from her sleeve, but the texture of this jade bracelet was something that Lin Mei had never seen before, and even the Begonia Spring that Shu Wangjin gave her was not as good as the color of this jade bracelet.

It is a piece of turquoise jadeite, carved out a piece of concave and convex lotus leaf lotus flower by the gradient of color, and the most amazing thing is that you can also see the figure of the koi swimming under the lotus leaf, vivid, this carving alone is difficult to find for a hundred years.

"Mrs. Shu, what is this?" Lin Mei watched in confusion as Mrs. Shu took out the jade bracelet, only to see her staring at herself, she couldn't help swallowing her saliva, and smiled coincidentally.

Mrs. Shu gently stroked the smooth and smooth bracelet in her hand, Lin Mei secretly glanced at it, only to see that the bracelet reflected a lustrous light in the evening afterglow, and at a glance she knew that the owner cherished this thing very much and wiped it often.

"This is the token that Wangjin's grandmother passed to me when I married into the Shu family, and I served as the mother of the Shu family." Mrs. Shu sighed softly, a glimmer of light flashing in her eyes.

"Tokens?" Lin Mei repeated it again in a condensed voice, frowning and carefully studying the bracelet in Mrs. Shu's hand.

Mrs. Shu closed her eyes, pursed the corners of her mouth and smiled slightly, as if she was nostalgic for the good times at that time, "At that time, I had a very bad temper, except for Qingtong and my father, no one could stand my temper, but Qingtong's mother liked me very much, and often pulled me to say some intimate words, treating me as her own." ”

"Shu Wangjin's grandmother is so nice......" Lin Mei murmured softly and smiled slightly.
