The old lady likes lotus flowers, and the second uncle is filial, so he specially opened up several large ponds in her yard and planted them with lotus flowers.

As the color gets cooler today, there are no more flowers in the lotus pond, and there are only dark green leaves like large discs.

Lin Zuiliu wore a longer skirt, walking on such a damp path, and after a while, the skirt was stained with a little mud.

Lin Zuilu walked behind her, and when she lowered her head, she saw a little mud stain on the red brocade robe for the first time, and immediately covered her mouth and snickered, and said without any virtue, "Ah, third sister, look at what's wrong with your skirt, there is a big dirty piece on it, isn't it rude for grandmother to see it?" ”

That's what he said, but his voice was so loud that he wanted everyone outside the yard to hear it.

Lin Zuiliu rolled his eyes a little helplessly, and before he could speak, Lin Gao's family heard Lin Zuilu's words, and hurriedly opened his mouth to relieve Lin Zuiliu.

"Eh, this is amazing, the princess came here to wear a special festive occasion, thinking that she would also give some joy to the old lady. How can that be done now? Why don't we go change our clothes and then come over to say hello to the old lady?" ”

The last sentence was to express doubts, and it was said to Lin Zuiliu, she shook her head, and just wanted to refuse.

The old lady sent by Mrs. Lin to greet her suddenly smiled and spoke.

"The princess has come less often, no wonder I don't know, we raise lotus flowers here, there is more muddy water, and it is a common thing to get on clothes and shoes, and now the princess doesn't think it's simple here, how can the old lady still dislike you for not knowing etiquette?"

In a few words, he was very capable, and he directly relieved Lin Zuiliu.

Soon several people crossed the courtyard and entered the room, and as soon as the curtain was opened, Lin Zuiliu smelled a strong sandalwood fragrance.

The old lady likes to smoke sandalwood, this Lin Zuiliu knows, but the smell in this room is really strong, but it makes people smell it and have a little headache, she turned her head to look, Cui He really covered her nose slightly.

The old lady was sitting on the couch, drinking tea with a teacup in one hand, she was wearing a velvet brocade long robe, and a jade waist seal pinned to her waist.

As soon as Lin Zuiliu and the others came in, Mrs. Lin immediately got up, supported by the big girl beside her, and immediately wanted to salute Lin Zuiliu.

"The old body sees the princess."

Her waist bent down slightly, Lin Zuiliu immediately stretched out her hand to support her arm, held the person up with a force, and hurriedly said, "Grandmother, don't be polite, you are tormenting me like this now." ”

Mrs. Lin was also very happy to see her granddaughter so humble and polite, and she took Lin Zuiliu's hand directly and began to look up and down.

Speaking of which, she hasn't seen her granddaughter for many years, she has no mother since she was a child, and her mother is such a character who can't tolerate her concubine, she must have lived a very hard life since she was a child.

Now that she is so big and can raise such an atmosphere, the little girl must be working very hard.

"Okay, good, the cards are bright and smooth, and the temperament is good, can you still be in harmony with the two kings of Zhennan?" As she spoke, Mrs. Lin directly pulled Lin Zuiliu and sat back on the couch where she was sitting, and she also told everyone a word.

"Don't stand still, sit down."

Lin Gao and Lin Zuiru didn't feel anything, but Lin Zuilu, who came with Lin Zuiliu, felt quite uncomfortable now.

Since she came in, no one in the family has welcomed her, as if she were a non-existent person.

Lin Zuilu has always been the one who holds the moon in the stars, but now she has been repeatedly stealing the limelight by the concubine she has always looked down on, and she is also depressed in her heart.

"Grandmother, my granddaughter has come to see you, and my mother said that she hasn't seen you for a long time, so she asked her granddaughter to take you to live in the house for a few days."

She looked very enthusiastic, and Mrs. Lin unconsciously smiled a little when she heard it, after all, they were all her granddaughters, and there was nothing dirty, and she was happy to hear that the child was so filial.

"Hey, I'm so old, an old woman, what do you young people have to think about, live a good life every day, the little girl's house is dressed up beautifully, and my old lady will be happy when she looks at it."

These words were really heartfelt, Lin Zuiliu really appreciated and liked the old lady when she heard it, and also took Mrs. Lin's hand.

"That's right, grandma, it's strange that Ah Liu didn't think about it so much, it just so happens that his father is not well, I came back to save my relatives, I have been in the Hou Mansion for the past few days, you can go with your granddaughter."

As he spoke, he looked at the second aunt very ironingly and asked, "I'll take my grandmother away, the second aunt won't be angry with me." ”

The words are all funny, she naturally won't mind until Lin Gao's family, the old lady is not at home, she may be a little more wanton.

Sure enough, hearing Lin Zuiliu say this, Lin Gao suddenly picked up the handkerchief and covered his mouth and giggled.

"What are you talking about, my granddaughter wants to be an elder, and she still wants me to be a bad person? As long as the old lady is willing to go, you can go as well, just a little, remember to send it back to the second aunt. ”

This was said both nicely and humorously, everyone laughed, and Lin Zuilu saw that everyone had forgotten himself in the corner again, and twisted his veil hatefully.

Unexpectedly, she gritted her silver teeth and secretly scolded Lin Zuiliu in her heart, and the old lady Lin suddenly looked at her and asked, "Lulu, how old is this year?" ”

was suddenly asked, Lin Zuilu, who was doing something wrong, was startled, and almost jumped up from the chair, but quickly reacted to the meaning of Mrs. Lin's words, and then spoke.

"Back to my grandmother, I'm nineteen years old this year."

In fact, Lin Zuilu's age was not small in ancient times, Lin Zuiliu is now seventeen years old, and she has been married for two years.

It was really because she felt that she was too young, so she was reluctant to have any further development with Liao Luan.

It was a common problem for ancient people to get married early.

After hearing Lin Zuilu's answer, Mrs. Lin squinted her eyes and said softly, "It's really not young, it's the age when you should have gotten married, your mother is also a big heart, and she doesn't know how to give her daughter a look." ”

As she spoke, she turned her head to look at Lin Zuiliu, and said with a smile, "It's just right, Ah Liu is also in the Hou Mansion this time, let's find a good relationship for your sister." ”

Lin Zuiliu actually heard it, Mrs. Lin was asking her to pull her sister-in-law, after all, there was a king of Zhennan behind her, and her status was different from the past.

In this way, the son-in-law she chose for Lin Zuilu must choose a higher status in the family, and it will not be like the one they chose at home.

Although she is like a mirror in her heart, Lin Zuiliu doesn't mind, she is not a good person, and she can't do anything to repay grievances with virtue.

Now if she wants her to help Lin Zuilu choose a son-in-law, then she will pick one casually, anyway, it seems to her that even if she finds a fairy for Lin Zuilu, Lin Zuilu will have to hate her.

"Yes, grandmother, let's do the work for my sister-in-law."

Seeing that Lin Zuiliu should go, Mrs. Lin was also happy with Lin Zuiliu's acquaintance, and she liked this granddaughter more and more, and the two of them laughed as if no one was around.

When Lin Gao, who was on the side, heard this, his heart slowly became alive.

Without him, it is really because her precious in-law and eldest daughter have not yet found a good in-law, her family has been a wealthy businessman for generations, and her eyes are above the top, and now it is not high or low to choose a husband for her daughter.

After all, the second master's official position is there, and she can't match her, and the high status doesn't look down on their family, so she has been delayed for picking and picking up.

Now hearing Mrs. Lin and Lin Zuiliu mention this, she thought for a while, and directly interjected, "Oh, mother, you can't forget Xiaoru as soon as your granddaughter is too much, Xiaoru hasn't found her in-laws yet." ”

The words are not stingy.

Lin Zuiliu almost laughed out loud, her second aunt is really a god, she really doesn't want any cheekiness for the benefit of her family, she is very thick.

The old lady has lived with her two daughters-in-law for so long, and naturally knows her stinky problems, so she was not angry when she heard the words, and nodded with a smile, "Okay, okay, meet the right one, and look for it together." ”

For a while, the atmosphere in the whole room was very good, Lin Gao was a wonderful person, he was very good at speaking, and there was no cold scene in the whole process.

When the sun slowly got bigger, it looked like it was almost lunch, and only a maid outside walked in and watched Lin Gao salute and speak.

"Second grandma, the second master is back."

Originally, many maids in this mansion were brought out from the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion when they were separated, so they have always called Lin Gao's second grandmother according to their seniority.

Now that the person has returned, it is naturally time to eat at noon, and the old lady is not in good health, so she did not call to the dining room to eat, and directly called the old son to her yard.

As soon as she saw her cheap second uncle, Lin Zuiliu felt very magical.

Her second uncle is not similar to Dingyuanhou, although the two are brothers, but one should be like a mother and a father, Dingyuanhou has a resolute face and looks very imposing.

However, Second Master Lin looked like a weak scholar at a glance, no wonder he finally became a university scholar, and he should be.

Like Mrs. Lin, when he saw Lin Zuiliu, he was about to bow down immediately, Lin Zuiliu naturally didn't want to do this, and it was not good to help him with his own hands, so Cui He went over to hold the person up.

The lunch was very rich, and Lin Zuiliu, who had eaten the palace banquet, could also see that her second aunt had wasted her mind.

It's rare for her to be so valued, she is happy, and she has eaten a lot, and Mrs. Lin praised her again when she saw it, and she was embarrassed.
