On the fourth watch of the next day, Zhao Ling still got up early to go to court, Lin Qingmei called out jasper with sleepy eyes, Zhao Ling stepped forward and pinched her nose, and said, "Mei'er, do you remember what Brother Ling told you last night?" ”

Lin Qingmei rubbed her eyes, and her ignorant eyes gradually became clearer, like Shui Xing: "Brother Ling asked Mei'er to go to Sister Qilan." ”

Zhao Ling scratched the tip of her nose approvingly: "Mei'er is so good." ”

After he left, Biyu hurriedly came over and persuaded: "Girl, don't listen to Your Highness, how can those four girls be a good match?" If you annoy her, she will find a way to cure you. ”

Lin Qingmei vacated half of the bed, and Biyu climbed onto the bed to lie down with her, Lin Qingmei said with a smile: "Don't be afraid, Brother Ling said that if Sister Lan dares to bully Mei'er, he will dismiss the eldest uncle's official, so that Sister Lan can no longer be arrogant." ”

After saying that, she yawned a little and fell asleep again, and Biyu thought to herself that she couldn't leave her for half a step today. How can the prince listen to the words? The fourth girl is gentle on her face, but she is extremely vicious in her heart, and her own girl is not an opponent at all.

When the fourth girl was only twelve or thirteen years old, she happened to hear the old woman in the courtyard say that she had a bad heart, so when the grandson of the old servant was washing for three days, she pierced the baby's navel with a silver needle, causing the baby to die. The old servant's family cried but didn't know the cause of death, if it wasn't for the maid in the courtyard who said that she leaked, this matter could be hidden for a lifetime.

The two got up after dawn, Lin Qingmei freshened up and looked at the orchid under the window, and Biyu smiled: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that this is Chunlan, and it will bloom until the beginning of the year, don't be too anxious, girl." ”

"Mei'er was just thinking about Brother Ling." Xiao Qingmei put her hands together, and her voice was sweet and soft: "Brother Ling is too good to Mei'er, Mei'er is thinking about how to repay him." ”

Biyu wanted to say that her embroidery work was good, and she could embroider some handkerchief sachets and give them to the prince, but when the words came to her mouth, she swallowed back: embroidering these things to give to men, most of them are suspected of being in love, and their own girls are now in the melon field, so don't be in the limelight.

Lin Qingmei thought about it for a long time, and suddenly had an idea: "Yes, the lotus root in the house is ripe recently, pull some to make osmanthus sugar root for Brother Ling to eat." ”

After going to Mrs. Lin's for breakfast, Lin Qingmei took a small basket and went to the lotus pond to pick lotus roots. Now that the lotus flowers have been thanked early, and the lotus seeds have been picked, it is a good time to harvest lotus roots.

Lin Qingmei tied her arms, took off her shoes and socks and was about to go into the water, but Biyu hurriedly stopped: "Girl, it's too cold in the morning and evening in autumn, let's call a little girl!" As she spoke, she went straight to find the little girl, Lin Qingmei put on her shoes and socks, and when she heard the mixed footsteps behind her, she looked back and saw that it was Lin Yulan who came with a few maids and Nana.

She frowned: Sister Lan is here, Brother Ling said that he wants to annoy her, how can he annoy her?

Lin Yulan saw that the little fool was just staring at her, looking full of sadness, so her eyes were cold, and she asked coldly, "What is the fool looking at?" ”

"Hmph, you're stupid! You're just too stupid, so Brother Ling gave the orchid to Mei'er. "Brother Ling said that Sister Lan likes orchids, and she prefers the orchids he sent, so she should be angry with her.

Sure enough, Lin Yulan's tone was suspicious: "Brother Ling? The prince gave you orchids? ”

She secretly slandered: Last night at the Yang family, the prince specially asked her, why did she turn around and give orchids to the little fool?

At this time, Biyu looked for a little girl, and when she saw Lin Yulan present, her scalp was numb: Ancestor, why did you leave for such a short time, and this Yama came? She hurriedly stepped forward to salute, and Lin Yulan asked, "The prince gave this fool a pot of orchids?" ”

Biyu said: "Miss Lao Si bothered, but it is an orchid that is not in good condition, and it is better than nothing." ”

Lin Yulan's suspicious gaze swirled on her: this fool is stupid, but her maidservant is a human spirit, every time she wants to find the fault of that fool, she is turned around by this jasper.

Lin Qingmei pursed her lips: "Jasper, that pot of orchids is good, Brother Ling said......"

Biyu hurriedly pulled her up who was sitting on the ground, dusted her off, and covered up: "Where does the girl know if it's okay?" It's just a coaxing thing. The slave and maid applauded when they saw the orchids in the courtyard of the four girls! ”

She then half-pushed and half-pulled Lin Qingmei away, and Lin Yulan behind her followed her, making her feel like a man's back.
