Chapter 109: The Queen Mother's Birthday Banquet
Lin Yunran walked out of the alley and leaned on the railing on the side of the street before he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Scared?" Long Zhaohua landed beside her and asked with a smile.
"Your Highness can still laugh?" Lin Yunran rubbed his aching wrist and complained.
"Lying and saying that he is a member of the Beitang family, he is not afraid that he will come to the Beitang family to find you? If he knew who you really were, how would you explain it? Of course, Long Zhaohua knew why she was lying.
But I'm still a little worried about the consequences of her lying.
"I'm just a maid, and he doesn't pay much attention to me. Moreover, he usually stays by the side of King Yan, and the chance of me meeting him is very small, and I don't know when the next meeting will be, so I don't have to worry at all. ”
"You'll comfort yourself." How could Long Zhaohua not hear that she was comforting herself?
"What else could I do? Wish I had turned around and met him? Lin Yunran thought that today's day would go smoothly.
I didn't expect to kill a cold mark.
"Why don't you find someone to follow you? It not only protects you, but also allows you to avoid encountering cold marks. Long Zhaohua looked like he was thinking about her again.
But why didn't Lin Yunran know his thoughts?
"Thank you, Your Highness, for your concern. But I think it's more dangerous if I have one more master around me. Lin Yunran didn't want to have an extra monitor by his side.
"You have a point in what you say. Hongu only hopes that you don't regret it. Long Zhaohua knew that she would refuse.
She doesn't like to be stared at.
"Your Highness knows that I am justified." After Lin Yunran finished speaking, he waved his hand at him.
When he returned to the Lin Mansion, Steward Lin came over with an invitation.
Lin Yunran didn't take this red bomb seriously, but when he took it and opened it, he found that it was actually an invitation to the Queen Mother's birthday banquet, and his eyes suddenly darkened.
This red bomb is not something that can be solved with a few thousand taels of silver.
"What do you want to give for the Queen Mother's birthday?" Lin Yunran wanted to see what Master Lin had sent before.
"I'll check it out for Miss." Steward Lin also knew that the Queen Mother's birthday was not to be neglected.
It's just that now the Lin family's family can't take out any expensive gifts at all.
Everything of value was taken away by the old lady.
After paying off the debt, life has been tight. Not to mention that the pharmacy was still closed for a few days.
"Trouble the housekeeper." Lin Yunran rubbed his eyebrows.
Steward Lin took out the previous account book and handed it to Lin Yunran.
Lin Yunran flipped the account book to the day of the Queen Mother's birthday, and found that the things sent by the Lin family a few years ago were worth 20,000 taels to say the least.
She didn't know if she could come up with two thousand taels of silver.
"Actually, Miss doesn't have to worry so much. For so many years, the Queen Mother didn't know that she had seen rare treasures, maybe Miss sent some things that the Queen Mother liked, and it would be easier for the Queen Mother to please the Queen Mother's attention than others? Steward Lin saw her frowning, knowing that she was worried about the birthday ceremony.
"Really?" Lin Yunran thought about it and felt that Steward Lin's words were not unreasonable.
The Queen Mother has a noble status, and she doesn't know how much she has received in her life
Rare treasures, what jade, jade, pearl agate, she should be tired of looking at it.
If you can give away something new that the Queen Mother likes, maybe you can get the Queen Mother's appreciation.
Can...... She doesn't know the queen mother's preferences, what if she hits the muzzle?
Could it be that she is going to find Long Zhaohua for help?
But he, the crown prince, should not be treated well with the Queen Mother, right?
However, he can ask the people around the Queen Mother, can't he know?
Lin Yunran returned to the room. Take the list of raw materials needed to make fat powder to Steward Lin.
"What is this going to do, Miss?" Steward Lin read it several times, but I didn't understand what these things could be used for.
"This ...... Keep it a secret. Lin Yunran smiled mysteriously.
Steward Lin took the list and left.
Lin Yunran walked outside a room in the deepest part of the courtyard.
As soon as the door opened, there was a smell of dust.
She almost choked.
Lin Yunran waved his hand and took two steps back.
"Miss, how did you get here?" Yue'er ran to her side, "This room hasn't been cleaned for a long time, so don't go in yet." Slave maid wait and clean up the inside with Sister Yuling, it's not too late for you to go in again. ”
"It's okay." Lin Yunran is not so delicate, "It's just a little dust, it's nothing." You and Yu Ling should both go about themselves. Just leave me here alone. ”
Yue'er saw that she didn't want to be disturbed, nodded, and turned to leave.
"Yue'er, did you leave Miss there alone?" Yu Ling couldn't help but be a little annoyed when she saw her coming over alone.
"Sister Yu Ling, it's not that I want to leave Miss there alone. It was the young lady who didn't want me to disturb her. It's all the things that the young lady used to use. She had clearly said before that she didn't want to go into that room again, so we didn't clean it up again, and I don't know what happened today. ”
"Miss has really changed a lot. But I prefer such a young lady. At least, it won't be so easy to be bullied anymore. What was the young lady bullied before, it was like this when the master was there, and after the master left, those people were even more excessive! Yu Ling said hatefully.
"When you say that, I can't wait to see them come back and face such a young lady. I don't believe they're still as crazy as they used to. Yue'er snorted lightly and dragged Yu Ling away.
Lin Yunran rummaged in the room for a long time, and his body and face were covered with dust before he found the toys that Mrs. Lin made.
Even though it has been stored here for more than ten years, the dragonfly is still very agile.
As long as you gently pull the tail, you can fly and come to life.
The fan that automatically fanned the wind, Lin Yunran also found it.
But the talking bird couldn't be found.
She also wanted to give that bird as a birthday gift to the Queen Mother.
Lin Yunran searched in his memory for a long time before he remembered that the bird was broken by Master Lin.
Mrs. Lin and Master Lin seem to have quarreled a lot because of these gadgets
One.
She vaguely remembered that Master Lin said: "I know you feel sorry for your daughter, but if others know these things, they will doubt your identity, do you understand?"
"It's just a few toys for Yun Ran, who would doubt my identity because of this?" Mrs. Lin didn't care, and even wanted to pick up the bird that had fallen on the ground.
Before her hand touched the bird, Master Lin trampled the bird to pieces with one foot.
Mrs. Lin was angry and cried, but Master Lin comforted her for a long time, and the two got back together.
Lin Yunran suddenly remembered that the people of the Lin Mansion had never mentioned Mrs. Lin's origin.
