Lin Zhu fiddled with the invitation in his hand, thinking left and right about whether to go to the banquet.

Two days ago, the Dong family suddenly sent someone to deliver an invitation, which said that it was Miss Dong's birthday and invited her to come over.

However, Lin Zhu felt that this invitation was a little strange, she knew Dong Yuzhen's birthday, and it was not at all far away from it in the last few days.

There are two young ladies in the Dong family, could it be that Dong Yuyao's?

Lin Zhu wanted Feng Yuanbo to inquire, but before she could speak, Feng Yuanbo came in with another letter.

"Girl, Miss Dong's letter." Feng Yuanbo handed the letter to Lin Zhu.

"I see." After reading the letter, Lin Zhu showed a mocking smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Girl, has there been any change in Miss Dong's birthday?" Feng Yuanbo knew about the invitation, and just thought about preparing the gift.

"It's not Sister Jane's," Lin Zhu put the letter in his hand on the table. "Miss Dong Er met me last time at the garden party between Ruiyuan Building and Princess Changmin, and she seems to have some ideas."

Although Dong Yuzhen's letter was secretive, Lin Zhu still guessed that Dong Yuyao wanted to take this opportunity to make friends with him, and then wanted to make friends with some powerful people through himself.

"The abacus is good." Lin Zhu took a sip of tea, "It's just that the person didn't choose the right one." "If you want to use yourself as a wall ladder, you have to see if you have this qualification. Regarding Dong Yuyao's calculations, although Lin Zhu felt that it was normal, he did not mean to wronged himself.

Besides, the relationship between her and Dong Yuyao is not good, and this invitation was originally a little abrupt. Lin Zhu will definitely not let her get her wish. So he asked Feng Yuanbo to push this invitation.

Fortunately, Dong Yuyao was invited in the name of a private person, if it was in the name of Dong Jisheng, it is estimated that the result would not be much better than this.

Lin Zhu, Dong Jisheng and Liang Zi of the Li family are very deep.

However, in order not to make it difficult for Mrs. Lin and Dong Yuzhen, Lin Zhu still ordered someone to prepare a congratulatory ceremony, and a pair of jade bracelets worth about two or three hundred taels were sent over.

Two or three hundred taels is not difficult for Lin Zhu to take out, and she and Dong Yuyao are not to that extent. She can sell a thousand taels for Dong Yuzhen, but the fat water has not flowed to outsiders.

But Dong Yuyao didn't have this blessing to make Lin Zhu look the other way, and even if Lin Zhu wanted to give a very valuable gift. It also depends on whether Dong Yuyao has the ability to return the gift.

Dong family.

Dong Yuyao sat in her mother Liu's house. pouted slightly, and said impatiently, "Mother, why do you invite that Lin Zhu over?" A great day. Let her come to be more unlucky. ”

"I'm not doing this for your own good." Liu glanced at his daughter. Some resentment that she couldn't understand her painstaking efforts. "Last time I went to Qi's house. Mrs. Qi also mentioned her, and it seemed that she also wanted to get to know the country girl, but her purpose was not to use her to climb to the Wang family. This is also an opportunity for you. Just by taking advantage of your birthday, call her over, and you can get along with her. ”

"I don't know where she got such good luck, and she actually met such a noble family." Dong Yuyao was very jealous in her heart.

"That Zhang family and the Wang family are in-laws, and they must be able to know each other through his family. At the beginning in Song County, didn't the person from the Zhang family stand up for her? In fact, Liu's heart was not comfortable.

Because of Lin Zhu, Mrs. Lin was also valued by Dong Jisheng at home. To a large extent, it also damaged Liu's interests, which she couldn't bear.

However, if she can use Lin Zhu's relationship to climb some big shots, she will also endure it for the time being.

"Also, don't bother that girl lately." Liu refers to Dong Yuzhen, "lest she speak ill of us in front of Lin Zhu's girl." ”

Liu always felt that the days of Mrs. Lin and her two children were getting more and more moisturized, not only were the three of them blushing, but they also received a lot of attention from Mr. Dong Wenyuan when they heard that Dong Wenyuan was in the academy. Although the relationship with Mrs. Lin's maiden family was not good, Mrs. Lin did not show any uneasiness.

Dong Jisheng will inevitably snub Mrs. Lin for this reason, but Liu and the others have never said that Dong Jisheng is not at all from Mrs. Lin's mouth. and did not force his favor.

This made Liu feel that it was very boring to fight with Mrs. Lin, and a war without an opponent was boring. Even though the Liu family is now in charge of everything in the family, they still don't have the feeling of having the upper hand.

What she and Dong Yuyao didn't expect was that Lin Zhu actually refused the invitation and only sent someone to send a gift.

Liu and Dong Yuyao seem to have a kind of shame and anger of being slapped in public, is she looking down on the Dong family?

Liu Shi clutched the handkerchief tightly, as if he wanted to tear it apart.

And Dong Yuyao angrily threw the things sent by Lin Zhu on the ground.

"Mother, that dead girl is too blind." Dong Yuyao's face was flushed. The surrounding maids also shrank aside tremblingly, and no one dared to come forward to persuade them.

"Hmph, give her three points of color and open a dyeing workshop, I really don't know how to lift." Liu felt that his identity was different from before, and he spoke arrogantly. "She is clearly not giving face to the Dong Mansion."

"Mother, what should I do then?" If Lin Zhu appeared in front of Dong Yuyao at the moment, it was estimated that Dong Yuyao would rush to Lin Zhu desperately.

"It's okay, I'll see your father later, I'll mention it to him." Liu's eyes narrowed slightly, and he secretly hated in his heart, hum, didn't your Lin family make friends with that country girl? It's up to you to explain to the master this time.

The Liu family was bent on teasing Dong Jisheng to completely dislike Mrs. Lin and others, so as to leave everything the Dong family had to her children. Recently, because of the relationship between Lin Zhu and Dong Wenyuan, Dong Jisheng didn't know how many good things he sent to the main courtyard.

As soon as he thought of this, Liu felt distressed for a while, how good it would be if these things were given to his children.

Now that the opportunity has come, Lin Zhu's refusal just allowed her to take advantage of the topic to play and suppress the arrogance of Mrs. Lin and others again. Seeing that Dong Wenyuan, as the eldest son of the Dong family, is about to talk about marriage, and the Liu family, who wants to make a lot of blood, of course, must minimize the expenditure on Mrs. Lin's mother and son.

"Mother, did you say that Sister Xiaozhu would come?" In the main courtyard, Dong Yuzhen sat beside Mrs. Lin and asked with some concern.

"I don't think so." Mrs. Lin shook her head. "Did you send her a letter?" Mrs. Lin turned her head to look at Dong Yuzhen.

"Well, you can't let them bully Sister Xiaozhu like this." A small flame appeared in Dong Yuzhen's eyes. Thinking about it, she was very angry with Liu and Dong Yuyao's approach.

"You." Mrs. Lin looked at her daughter angrily and angrily, "Even if you don't write that letter, Xiaozhu won't come." Mrs. Lin looked in the direction of the side courtyard, "The wishful thinking is too fine, the fox's tail is exposed and he is still complacent, do you think others are fools?" ”

"Sister Xiaozhu won't pay attention to them." Dong Yuzhen said with great confidence.

"Yes, Xiaozhu's girl seems to be easy-going, but she is very arrogant in her bones, and ordinary people can't get into her eyes. Besides, with her current status, she doesn't just accept the invitation. It's a pity that some people are too self-conscious. Mrs. Lin was not only sarcastic about Liu and Dong Yuyao, but also Dong Jisheng, who has always been very self-assured.

"I guess your father will ask you to invite Xiaozhu, you have to know how to do it." Mrs. Lin reminded.

"Well, I know." Dong Yuzhen has matured a lot, and she also has her own views on some things, knowing what she can and can't do.

"By the way, mother, my brother will prepare for the spring exam in a few days." Dong Wenyuan had only been in the capital for a long time, but the gentleman of the academy thought that he had good knowledge and could give it a try.

"Well, you have to keep an eye on it these days, it's important not only for your brother, but also for you. As long as Wen Yuan can be lifted, his mother is also relieved. "All Mrs. Lin's forbearance is paving the way for Dong Wenyuan.

As long as he can succeed, Mrs. Lin will naturally raise her eyebrows.

"I know it." As long as Dong Wenyuan can succeed, then in this family, they will no longer be bullied by others.

Sure enough, that night, Dong Jisheng came to the main courtyard with a displeased face, first scolded Mrs. Lin with a head and face, and then called Dong Yuzhen to reprimand.

Although she was mentally prepared, Dong Yuzhen felt that she had done nothing wrong, but she was still unreasonably reproached by her father, and she felt very uncomfortable.

"You go to find that girl tomorrow, Dong Fu invited her to give her face, don't know what to do." Dong Jisheng put down the next sentence and threw up his sleeves.

"Mother......" Dong Yuzhen choked up a little.

"It's okay, you go through the motions, Xiaozhu will understand you." Zhilu said that his daughter was embarrassed, knowing that Lin Zhu didn't want to come, and still wanted to be this lobbyist, he must be very conflicted in his heart. After reassuring her a few words, she was allowed to rest, and Mrs. Lin sat alone in the room, quietly, not knowing what she was thinking.

Lin Zhu, who had long known that Dong Yuzhen would come to the door, was also a little surprised by the red and swollen eyes on her face.

"Sister Jane, have they embarrassed you?" I think only those people would make her like this.

Although Dong Yuzhen is older than Lin Zhu, many times it is Lin Zhu who takes care of her. Hearing Lin Zhu's words, Dong Yuzhen couldn't help but hug her for a while and shed tears of grievance.

"Okay, don't worry, I'll be there that day." At the beginning, Lin Zhu was too troublesome to deal with these people, so he refused the invitation, and it was not a harmonious relationship in the first place, and it didn't matter whether he saw it or not.

It seems that he still underestimated the attitude of these people to drill the camp, which is unwilling to give up if he does not achieve his goal.

It's better to dispel their thoughts in person in the past than to let Mrs. Lin and Dong Yuzhen be angry.

Lin Zhu felt that he used to treat people too gently, so he was regarded as easy-going by people.

This makes some irrelevant people want to get some benefits from themselves. It's so whimsical. (To be continued......)
