Chapter 163: Picking up the shortcomings

"That's right." Bai Xian had a look of knowing, "That's no wonder Niangniang mentioned it, but the fourth lady has never been in Beijing, and it is estimated that this time Prince Yu entered Beijing and told Niangniang." ”

Lin Yuan's scalp was numb, and Bai Xian was going around Ji Zongyu's body.

Lin Guangcheng thought about it slightly, his expression froze, and he couldn't help but look at Lin Yuan, he asked Lin Yuan if Ji Zongyu's withdrawal had anything to do with her!

Bai Xian said lightly, "It seems that Prince Yu has a good relationship with the fourth lady." ”

"Prince Yu came with my aunt to visit relatives once, but he just met with his daughter." Lin Guangcheng had to bite the bullet and reply.

Bai Xian smiled, noncommittal, but stared at the jade pendant on Lin Yuan's waist, "Do you like this jade pendant?" ”

Lin Yuan pretended to be naΓ―ve, grabbed the jade pendant and posed, "I like it very much, thank you father-in-law for the gift." ”

After that, the road was much more stable, although Lin Yuan and Lin Guangcheng were up and down in their hearts, but Bai Xian's interest seemed very good, and he pointed to the rockery pool from time to time and asked questions.

It wasn't until dinner that the father and daughter breathed a sigh of relief, and later Bai Xian also said that he would leave for Beijing tomorrow morning.

This news is good news for Lin Yuan, her heart is settled, and she stayed up for dinner and didn't leave the table early.

After returning to Tianjiao Courtyard after dinner, the family of three who had been nervous were ready to rest, but an uninvited guest came over in the night.

"Second wife, the old lady asked you to go and say hello tomorrow morning." Jade hung her head and finished speaking.

"Okay, I know, talk to the old lady, I will definitely go tomorrow morning." Ye Shi replied.

Cuiyun answered the call and brought the message to the old lady, and then hurriedly ran away.

No matter how filial Lin Guangcheng was, he couldn't help but complain in a low voice, "Mrs. hasn't taken care of her body yet, please do you want to be safe?" ”

Lin Yuan wanted to ask Ye what was going on, but Ye smiled and said, "I should have been in the morning and dusk, okay, I'm tired all day, go back and rest." ”

After Ye finished speaking, he walked towards the courtyard.

Lin Yuan was helpless, looking at the sky, it was impossible to chase and ask, so he had to go to rest.

Early in the morning of the second day, because she wanted to see off Bai Xian, Lin Yuan got up early in the morning. But she changed her clothes and went to find Ye and planned to accompany Ye to the old lady to say goodbye, but she learned that Ye had passed.

It's still dark outside!

"Why did it pass so early?" Lin Yuan asked Xi'er.

Xi'er raised her face and glanced at Lin Yuan, then lowered her head and replied sullenly, "Mama Li came over early in the morning to invite Mrs. over." ”

When Lin Yuan heard this, she couldn't help but want to curse, she took a few breaths, and then she relented, and she didn't stay, and walked directly to the side courtyard where the old lady lived.

When I got there, the sky was almost bright, the courtyard was quiet, and there was no one guarding the door, so Lin Yuan walked directly to the innermost.

But before he saw the figure, Lin Yuan heard Zhu's voice full of schadenfreude.

"Second sister-in-law, you didn't know that I was trained by the old lady and your sister so much, and the rules would be so good."

Later, what made Lin Yuan even more angry was that Zhu's words fell, which was the sound of Lin Yuan painting a tiger into a cat.

"I heard that the second aunt's mother's family is not a big family, and it is necessary to learn by heart, and if you learn well, you can go back and teach the fourth sister, so as not to be laughed at by the fourth sister as a motherless child who does not understand the rules."

As soon as Lin Yuan heard this, his qi and blood surged up, and he was quick to step down, ignoring Xianglan's dissuasion, and rushed into the house in a few steps.

The people in the room looked at Lin Yuan in surprise, because it was so sudden that the sneering expressions on the faces of several people didn't have time to hide.

Lin Yuan gasped, looking at Ye, whose eyes were full of grievances, but after seeing that it was her, she showed a reassuring smile.

"Come with me, ma'am." She said in a calm voice.

Ye struggled for a moment, but really put down the chopsticks he was holding, and followed Qu'er to Lin Yuan with his skirt.

The old lady and the Zhu family were dumbfounded, and they didn't react to stop it, until Lin Yuan pulled Ye's sleeve and was about to leave, and the old lady smashed her job.

"Stop!" The old lady shouted.

Lin Yuan ignored it and pulled the Ye family to walk faster.

The old lady is not as good as she was now, and there is no one around her to stop her, and in a blink of an eye, Lin Yuan walked out of the courtyard.

After a small trot, the weak Ye Shi's breath became unstable, and he kept panting for breath, and Lin Yuan hurriedly slowed down.

"Madam, why are your eyes so straight? She called you over and you came? Even if you want to come, don't come so early! Lin Yuan reproached helplessly.

Ye's breath was so angry that he couldn't reply, and Qu'er helped to reply, "It's not that Mrs. wants to come over so early, it's that Mama Li has been squeezing Mrs., and Mrs. can't do it." ”

Needless to say, Lin Yuan guessed that Mama Li must have nothing good to say when she came to invite Ye's, so she waved her hand and didn't want to say more, and asked Ye's, "Madame, do you want to find a place to sit first?" ”

Ye's face turned pale and he nodded repeatedly.

Lin Yuan looked around, and led the Ye family to a shade tree.

Ye Shi slowed down for a while before he took a breath, and his face was much more rosy.

As if she was afraid that the Ye family would be reproached by Lin Yuan again, Qu'er hurriedly explained, "Mrs. hasn't eaten a drop of water since she got up in the morning." ”

Lin Yuan held her forehead, helpless, she really didn't want to talk about the Ye family anymore, so she only instructed Xianglan, "You have worked hard, run back quickly and get some pastries and tea." He said to Ye Shi again, "I will pad my stomach later, and then I will send my father-in-law Bai back to eat." ”

Ye nodded again and again, seeing that Lin Yuan's brows were always locked and he looked angry and helpless, so he said cautiously, "Yuanyuan, I heard something from the old lady just now. As she spoke, she looked around a little evasively, and explained to Qu'er, "Go and watch some people." ”

Qu'er responded and walked to the gravel road.

Seeing that the Ye family was so solemn, Lin Yuan couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?" ”

"I came before, but there was no one in the old lady's yard, so I went directly to the house, and as soon as I entered the house, I heard the old lady in the back room pleading with the third lady, saying something please." Ye Shi lowered his voice and said, "Really, it's just pleading, that tone can be as pitiful as it is, I must have heard it right, at that time, Mama Li's face changed, and she immediately called out to the old lady, and there was no movement in the inner room." ”

"I wonder if the third lady has taken advantage of the old lady's shortcomings." Ye Shi said with a look of certainty.

Lin Yuan was puzzled when she heard this, what kind of handle could make the arrogant old lady so low-voiced?

She couldn't figure it out for a while, and said to Ye, "I'll tell my father about this when Father-in-law Bai leaves." ”

After a while, Xianglan came over with a food box, Ye Caocao ate some pastries and drank a bowl of tea, and a few people went towards the main hall.

"Wait, ma'am." When he was about to enter the door, Qu'er said loudly, "Your hair is messed up, the slave will help you straighten it out before you go in." ”

Suddenly, Lin Yuan had a flash of inspiration, and asked Ye Shi a little eagerly, "At that time, you went directly into the house, and Mama Li didn't stop you?" ”
