7. Each has his own thoughts
Old Madam Lin usually had to take a nap every day, but now she was in good spirits, lying on the couch tossing and turning, and soon got up and said, "Yuhong, take me to Mei'er's side to have a look." ”
The Purple Cloud Palace is built according to the mountain, the front hall is for the pilgrims to burn incense and worship God, the Taoist room is in the back, it is a hundred zhang away from the front hall, it is quite quiet. The old lady walked along the way, secretly thinking that it was really a good place for cheating. Long pine and green bamboo, if people have a heart hidden in it, it is difficult to be discovered.
When she arrived at Lin Qingmei's Taoist room, Lin Qingmei was preparing to take a nap, and when she heard that her grandmother was coming, she yawned a little and said, "Isn't grandmother tired?" Mei'er is so tired, she just sent Brother Ling and Cousin Shen away, and she wants to sleep! ”
The old lady knew that Xiao Mei'er had solid eyes, and asked her to say everything like pouring beans into a bamboo tube, so she retreated and asked: "Mei'er told her grandmother, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came to look for you today, what did he say to you?" ”
Lin Qingmei said innocently: "I didn't say anything!" Brother Ling likes to eat the osmanthus cake of his father-in-law, and Mei'er gave it to him. ”
Mrs. Lin thought to herself that His Royal Highness the Prince's words and deeds, and with the presence of Jasper, he would not be light-hearted Mei'er, but he only broke into Mei'er's boudoir yesterday, and today he rushed to the Taoist temple to see Mei'er.
The old lady asked again with a good approach: "Mei'er still remember what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said to you last night?" ”
Lin Qingmei thought for a while, and said with clear eyes: "He said that he is Mei'er's husband and wants Mei'er to marry him." ”
Mrs. Lin didn't show it on her face, but her heart was already turbulent, she calmly stroked Mei'er's little head, and said kindly: "Sleep quickly!" ”
Lin Qingmei closed her eyes and lay down, her breathing quickly became even, her long eyelashes cast shadows under her eyes, and her sleeping face was very beautiful.
Mrs. Lin went back to the Taoist room, sorted out the ins and outs of the matter, and she thought: The prince has made a promise, since he and Yulan are discussing marriage, if it weren't for Yulan doing something angry and resentful, the prince would definitely not regret the marriage. In the current situation, it seems that the prince still has a crush on Mei'er? If he revealed that he liked Mei'er a little bit, wouldn't Mei'er want to enter the palace as Yulan's dowry? Based on Yulan's attitude towards Mei'er, how can Mei'er have a good life after entering the palace?
She called Yuhong and said, "A few days ago, I heard you say that the landlord Zhang of Liuxia Village is looking at each other for his eldest son, and when he returns to the house, let him bring his son to talk to my wife!" ”
At this time, Lin Yulan heard that the prince had come to Ziyun Palace, and she was surprised: Why did His Highness come to Ziyun Palace but not come to look for her?
She sent her maidservant Lotus Hua'er and asked, "What is the prince doing when he comes to Ziyun Palace?" ”
The lotus flower didn't know what to say, so Lin Yulan pulled out the golden hairpin on her head and poked her arm vigorously: "What do you want to hide?" ”
Lotus didn't dare to cry, these four girls tortured people the hardest, only sobbed: "The slave maid saw that His Royal Highness the Prince went to the Taoist room of the seventh girl, stayed for a long time, and finally left with the young master of the Ji family. ”
Lin Yulan was taken aback: The prince went to see the fool one after another, did he really notice what they were doing?
However, her face was still angry, and she scolded hatefully: "What means did this fool use to seduce the prince? Do you want to replace me? ”
She walked out angrily, wanting to go to Lin Qingmei to vent, but she met Yuhong head-on, and after Yuhong saw the salute, she asked, "It's so hot in the afternoon, where are you going?" ”
Yuhong covered her mouth and smiled, and said mysteriously: "The fourth girl may not believe it, the seventh girl's marriage is close, and the old lady sent me down the mountain for a trip." ”
When Lin Yulan heard this, she was worried: Could it be that the old lady also has the heart to match the prince and the fool?
She didn't even want to go to find Lin Qingmei, and hurriedly returned to her Taoist room with a reluctant smile.
