Even though Second Madam had a meticulous personality, he still could not figure out what was wrong.
Lin Qian also frowned: ”Everything is fine, why are you so interested in the matter of the fifth room? Judging by the status and identity of the Princess Changze, they don't need to curry favor with anyone anymore, not to mention that she and Fifth Aunt haven't even met each other before … ”
The bystanders were all aware of this logic!
Second Madam nodded as she felt a headache coming. She did not mind Lin Shu being raised to his brother's side, since Lin Shu was Sister Qian's cousin after all. When this matter spread, her face lit up … She just didn't like the feeling of being kept in the dark, as if everything was out of her control.
Lin Shu actually didn't refute anything. Originally, she wanted to tell Lin Shu a few things about him going to Tzu Ning Palace to be obedient and not cause trouble, but after saying that, the moment she looked into Lin Shu's cold eyes, she was unable to say anything.
Thus, Lin Pei did not say anything.
Lin Shu also borrowed the reason why she had to enter the palace to accompany Madam Lian all day, and even went to the extent of not paying respects to Grand Madam anymore. It was rare for Grand Madam to be kind to her, she only said that she had to busy herself and pack up, and did not need to pay her respects.
Lin Shu was so happy that she acted like a shopkeeper, accompanying Madam Lian and comforting him everyday. She even told the hibiscus and peony by Madam Lian's side that if anything really happened and the Fifth Madam was in a mess, they must not panic. If the Fanghua Garden were to be in a mess, they might not be too far away from Princess Changze's door.
Peony and Hibiscus naturally nodded heavily, and said that they would not disappoint Fourth Miss's orders.
After two days, Madam Lian had also gradually accepted the fact that Lin Shu was about to enter the palace. However, whenever this matter was mentioned, her eyes would fill up with tears, and it did not decrease in the slightest from her usual straightforward manner. ”When you get to the palace, you have to be careful not to say anything. Don't go to that place with fewer people and be careful not to use tricks by that slut. As for Esteemed Empress Dowager, you don't have to be wronged in trying to please her yourself. It's your duty to do your job. If Esteemed Empress Dowager really can turn her back against you, then letting you go back to the palace would be the best thing to do.”
”Also, you will need to bring a few caring maids into the palace this time. Although there are no lack of people in the Tzu Ning Palace, who knows if the Princess Changze set those people up beside you. ”I think it would be better to let Peony and Hibiscus follow you to the palace. They have been by my side for quite some time, and they are the most sincere …”
Lin Shu, who was in the middle of choosing fox skin, hurriedly said: ”It's better if I don't. Big Sister Peony and Big Sister Furong have been by your side for so many years, you're already used to it. Furthermore, you have used them all, so I have not used them all yet. However, I feel that the Actinin Qin you called me for was not bad.
”If you really ask elder sister Peony and elder sister Furong to follow me into the palace, be careful that someone whispers something in the empress dowager's ear. They only say that our family isn't at ease with me entering the palace and they've sent two powerful maidservants after me. No matter how dangerous it is in the palace, as long as I remember 'be careful', there won't be any mistakes.”
”I know you have an idea, but I'm afraid it's not enough for you to only bring Actinin Qin to the palace, right?” Madam Lian looked at Lin Shu, not knowing when, but her round face had a sharp chin. ”Why don't we call for Peony to follow you into the palace …”
Lin Shu chose two pieces of high quality fox skin before she smiled and said, ”I will choose these two pieces. If I make the cloak, it will be nice and warm.”
I don't want elder sister Peony to follow me into the palace. Since she's in the palace, I won't be able to relax you, in my opinion, why don't I bring Yun Dou into the palace? Maid has been like a chatterbox all day, even keeping his by my side will help me relieve my boredom. There are too many smart people in this palace. There are two interesting ones, and they are also very interesting. ”
Madam Lian could only smile and say, ”Oh you, what should I say … … ”Originally, I didn't want you to grow up and marry when you grow up. It was difficult for me to even meet you once, but now, I can't wait for you to grow up overnight and protect yourself properly. I'm so worried for you.”
Lin Shu's eyes became sore, ”Don't worry, when I come back to see you, I'll definitely be white and fat, and you'll have to grow fatter as well.”
