Chapter 380 Turbulence Came in Secre (1/2)
t
Ms. Tian had worked in the Lin’s Mansion for years after all. In an afternoon, she had roughly known about the old maids and maids in the Prince’s Mansion.
Unlike Baishao and Baiji , Ms. Tian could almost tell someone’s disposition at a glance.
By the time of dinner, she could almost remember the names and appearances of those people she saw this afternoon.
In Lin Mengya’s yard, they had always been unrestrained. Except for the old maids, the maids could eat at the table.
Sometimes, Snow and the baby tiger, which looked a little scary, pretended to be pitiful and cute beside Lin Mengya, and then were also allowed to eat by the table.
However, today Ms. Tian frowned, watching everyone in Liuxin Courtyard finish this meal.
“Ms. Tian, you look unhappy. What’s wrong?”
Lin Mengya was used to repressing others with her status, but in fact, she paid no attention to class at all.
Under her influence, several maids of hers were not punctilious either.
“Miss, I know that you cherish these maids. Madam had treated us in the same way. However, you are the legal wife of the prince. Even if the Crown Prince ascended the throne in the future, you are the princess. If it’s known by someone else, it won’t be good for both you and them.”
Lin Mengya knew that Ms. Tian said this for her own good.
She was a smart person. Inspired by Ms. Tian’s words, she instantly understood what Ms. Tian meant.
Now although Long Tianyu’s identity didn’t make him a target for all, it was quite striking.
As the princess, she had a bad reputation. She seemingly felt uncomfortable if she didn’t do something shockingly controversial every two or three days.
However, the situation was different when it came to Baishao and other maids. Once their deeds were spread, they would only be criticized for being unruly.
It was bad for their reputation in the future. If they wanted to marry into a family, they would certainly be considered prideful and self-willed when the family examined their conduct.
She didn’t take this into consideration. Although she didn’t care about damaging her reputation, she couldn’t implicate Baiji and other maids.
“Okay, I’ll talk to them about it. You are thoughtful. We are too young to take this into consideration.”
On hearing her words, Ms. Tian smoothed her knitted brows.
Fortunately, Miss had inherited the temperament from Madam and could listen to the advice beneficial to her.
Ms. Tian heartily liked the two maids as soon as she saw them.
In addition, the two maids were extremely nice to Miss. Thus, she naturally regarded Baiji and Baishao as one of them in her heart.
“By the way, when I went to the kitchen today, I saw the dishes prepared for the masters of the mansion. Miss, pardon me for making bold to ask a question. Are you or which Madam in the mansion is pregnant?”
“Puff.”
Lin Mengya spat the tea out of her mouth, opened her eyes wide and stared at Ms. Tian with disbelief in her eyes.
“It’s, it’s impossible! Could it be a maid in the mansion is pregnant?”
How could it be possible!
Although it had been nearly a year since she and Long Tianyu got married, they were still innocent.
Not to mention a sexual relationship, even holding hands and kissing were extremely rare for them.
Besides, the maids in the mansion could be considered chaste.
Long Tianyu was not a womanizer. Concubine De’s husband was still unconscious in the Imperial Palace, and she didn’t look like pregnant anyway.
“It’s unlikely. The situation in the prince’s mansion is different from that in our mansion. Nevertheless, it’s not difficult to guess the regular dishes for the masters. If it’s a maid who is pregnant, she should at least inform you, the hostess of the mansion. Besides, I have looked around in the mansion and found that although not all of them are afraid of you, they are quite respectful to you. Moreover, something like pregnancy can be considered a joyful event for the mansion. In general, the maid will inevitably get some rewards if she reports it to you. I can tell the dishes are prepared for the masters.”
When Madam Lin was pregnant, Ms. Tian had taken care of her all through her pregnancy.
So she knew a lot about it.
If Ms. Tian was sure, it couldn’t be false.
In the prince’s mansion, only Lin Mengya, Long Tianyu and Concubine De, who lived in Art Courtyard, could be exactly considered masters.
Among the three people, Long Tianyu probably was the most likely to be pregnant!
Lin Mengya didn’t dare to neglect it, but didn’t want to beat the grass to startle the snake.
It was late. If she inquired about it now, it looked weird.
“I got it. The prince is going to make an inspection tour for spring ploughing these days. So we should not bother him.”
She hoped that it was just a false alarm.
However, she sensitively detected the unique breath of conspiracy.
Lin Mengya, who didn’t feel like sleeping, leant against the window and read Qingzheng Dispensatory.
As she read it, she found the book extremely precious and detailed.
Sometimes only a few lines inspired her and made her feel like she saw the clouds and mist scatter. She could find the solutions to many intractable problems on it.
The more surprising thing was that there were many comments left by predecessors on it.
These comments were actually as precious as Qingzheng Dispensatory.
Lin Mengya read them carefully, hoping to find the traces left by her mother on it.
