From the city gate tower to the front of the Chu family's mansion, the road was smooth, and there was nothing special, except that in the middle of the road, Lin Qiantan was blocked by a little girl who chased all the way from the dock of Pingyuan County to the capital, saying that she had dropped a valuable hairpin and was picked up by her.

The little girl is an ordinary fisherman's daughter in Pingyuan County, and she walks with the Wang brothers. She also went to the inn by chance to work part-time, and it happened that when Lin Qiantan helped clean up after checking out, she saw the hairpin that was unintentionally covered by the sheet and was not taken away.

The hairpin is made of rubies and silver, and the head of the water is full, which is indeed valuable, and it is suitable for a girl of fifteen or sixteen years old. Lin Qiantan thanked her, but also remembered this cheerful little girl who happened to go to Beijing to wholesale dried salted fish and had a ruined face.

On the day Lin Qiantan arrived in the capital, the weather was excellent. The sun was shining high, and it was shining brightly, but it was appropriately dotted with a few clouds, so as not to make the people on the ground too hot. The light spread down, dyeing the brick and stone floor of this large area in front of the Chu family with a thin layer of gold.

When the car drove into the open space outside the gate, Lin Qiantan lifted the window, and her eyes narrowed almost when she was suddenly illuminated by the dazzling light.

Chu gradually has something to do, and he is not at home, but his aunt Jiang Ningniang is here. But Jiang Ningniang, who had promised her husband that she would receive Lin Qiantan well, was not only so cordial that she was willing to greet her in person, but she didn't even have a servant. Inside and outside the gatehouse, there were only a few boys who looked like little servants, pretending to be busy with their heads down, cleaning the ground in front of the door, which was not dirty.

Lin Qiantan didn't think anything of it, but Chu Jiang was extremely embarrassed. His mother was also from a prestigious family, and she would not fail to understand the basic politeness of relatives. The reason why he deliberately made his temperament was that he was sure that it was done for him.

The so-called male college is married, and Chu Jiang has already had too much unpleasant trouble with his mother for the marriage.

Jiang Ningniang always wanted him to marry his uncle's cousin Jiang Zhiyue, but he had a soft spot for Lin Qiantan, the cousin born to his little aunt. Originally, marriage was a major event that focused on the life of his parents, but fortunately, a father supported him to win Lin Qiantan's favor, which made him bear the pressure from his mother and dragged him to the age of 20 and "wait for the boudoir".

Originally, cousin Jiang Zhiyue also arrived the day before yesterday, Jiang Ningniang, out of multiple considerations, hoped that Chu Jiang would take Cousin Jiang to the outskirts of Beijing to ask for a sign - the White Horse Temple is opening an altar with fate, and the special marriage sign is very effective.

As for the "trivial matter" of picking up Lin Qiantan, it is naturally handed over to the steward. How can it compare to her beloved niece's lifelong event?!

Chu Jiang didn't give face to his mother, insisted on leaving Jiang Zhiyue aside, and went to the city gate to greet Lin Qiantan in person. Jiang Ningniang naturally didn't give face to her niece, and deliberately created an unwelcome posture.

Lin Qiantan didn't think anything about it herself-her aunt had always been so temperamental. On the contrary, the people around her were all indignant. Song frowned, and Mei also showed displeasure, and Jin He was even more simply: "Miss, the slave is full of joy, and I thought that I could see my uncle's wife here immediately."

Lin Qiantan was just smiling lightly and preparing to get out of the car, but when she heard the words of this poisonous tongue girl deliberately amplifying her voice, she almost didn't hold back and laughed.

She glanced at Jinhe with a smile, and Yuguang caught a glimpse of Song and Zhimei also trying to hold back their laughter, as if it was not enough to stare at them in disgust, and then stretched out her index finger and focused on Jinhe's forehead. Jinhe was poked by her finger and staggered into Song's arms.

Lin Qiantan didn't need to look at it, and knew that the master and servant of the Chu family outside the car at this moment must have looked embarrassed. She first apologized to Chu Jiang for Jinhe's "gaffe", and Chu Jiang reacted quickly, and hurriedly apologized to the car window. While speaking, the Song family, Zhimei, and Jinhe had already gotten out of the car first and moved a small stool for Lin Qiantan to step on the car.

These concierge servants and stewards of the Chu family, of course, also know that the Lin family's cousin is a guest. But the lady confessed, saying that "they are very busy with the care of the house, and sometimes it is inevitable to be slow to treat the idle people", and they also acted according to orders......

What's more, although this one here is a young lady, she is stingy every time she comes from afar, she doesn't give a reward. The one over there is also Miss Cousin, but she is generous, and of course they like it. Selfishly, they are also very willing to actively cooperate.

Lin Qiantan just didn't know that she was secretly looked down upon by these servants of the Chu family—in fact, it wasn't that she was willing to be stingy.

First, it is because she is indeed not as rich as Jiang Zhiyue. Jiang Zhiyue has a father's love and mother's love, and she barely relies on her mother's shops to maintain the dignity of the eldest daughter of the Lin family's three rooms. That alone is incomparable.

Second, it is because in Yin Wei's boudoir education, women are reserved and steady, so they can't do things like taking money to please their subordinates. As the future head of the house, you should learn how to control the servant with the majesty of the master.

Originally, the truth was correct, but Yin Wei "forgot" to tell Lin Qiantan that she must know how to be flexible in everything, and she must know how to combine grace and power, and combine rigidity and softness.

Lin Qiantan went down to the ground, pretending to be stupid, but she didn't pay attention to the gold chain that was exposed outside unintentionally or unintentionally by a certain Chu family servant - at the moment, she really didn't have any extra spare money to slap her swollen face and become fat, and she could only look forward to her returning from rebirth, and the little business experience she brought a few years later could help her earn more money in the future and make up for her face.

Although, she is not interested in fighting with Jiang Zhiyue at all.

The one from the Jiang family can be regarded as having met Lin Qiantan when he was a child. From childhood to adulthood, she was most keen to use money to step on Lin Qiantan's face. Lin Qiantan is a poor and noble lady, but Jiang Zhiyue is very rich.

From the car to the car in a short period of time, all relying on Jinhe's words, Lin Qiantan just pulled back a city. Looking at the faces of the group of Chu family servants in front of her, she felt happy. But she thought that the next time, it would be better for her to slap Jiang Zhiyue and even her aunt in the face.

Chu Jiang is naturally also familiar with the path of his mother and the cousin of the Jiang family. His face was ugly, and he wanted to say something to tease Lin Qiantan, but he was embarrassed and didn't know where to speak. On the contrary, after Lin Qiantan was supported by the girl and stood firmly, she first opened her mouth and smiled with him: "Cousin, let's go in, presumably my aunt is talking about why I can't get there yet."

Chu Jiang shook his head and nodded with a wry smile, feeling helpless for his mother, who did not look like an elder at all. He took the lead, grabbed in front of Lin Qiantan, personally led the way in front, and took advantage of Lin Qiantan not noticing him, squinted his eyes and glanced coldly at a group of minions.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew through the hall at the gate, blowing a group of minions who saw the money to the point that their vests were slightly cold, and they couldn't help but shiver.
