Second spring

Aunt Feng's family is not much older than Mrs. Lin, but she is obviously much older, and even her temples are graying, more like a 50-year-old lady.Her face was thin and tight, and the smile she greeted them was not so much a smile as it was made by pulling the skin of her face hard, which looked very stiff.

In Lin Yijia's memory, this eldest aunt was extremely serious and rarely smiled.In the past, Lin Yijia was even very afraid of seeing her, because this eldest aunt was really fierce and ruthless——Lin Yijia once saw her have someone use a bamboo board to slap one of her eldest uncle's little ones mercilessly in order not to know what was going on. The concubine slapped her lips to the point of disfigurement, and even beat the concubine's mother to death with a hundred slaps!

Lin Yijia remembered that the brutal and bloody scene scared her so much that she had nightmares for several days. After a serious illness, she never went to Feng's house again.Even if the eldest aunt came to Lin's house as a guest, she could avoid it as long as she could.Also because of this, her relationship with the Feng family's cousins ​​is only so-so.

In other words, in Lin Yijia's previous life, there was no such thing as "friend" at all, but Qin Mingyuan occupied it all?

Lin Yijia laughed at herself secretly, and saluted Mrs. Feng together with her sisters.After another introduction and pleasantries, all the talents took their seats.

The real banquet has not yet started. At this time, the wives and young ladies and gentlemen in the courtyard are also sitting or standing at will, tasting tea and enjoying flowers, or reciting poems and painting, enjoying themselves.

The table the Feng family chose was in a corner of the yard, which was considered a remote place out of sight, but there were no rockery or shrubs around it, so it was not hidden.

"Sister-in-law knows where to choose." Mrs. Lin looked around, nodding to the people who came by occasionally, and praised.She immediately taught the girls of the Lin family: "Look, this kind of place has a clear view and is separated from other people, so when you speak, you don't care about others listening, and you don't talk too much about it. Accidentally getting involved is the best place to rest your feet."

When the girls of the Lin family heard the words, they all looked around seriously, and after understanding, they all smiled.

"Here, three of you grew up in the locality and are not familiar with the customs of the capital, and the three of you have been raised in the back house and have never been out of the house...Rong Qing, it is you, who dare to take them all with you Come out." Madam Feng sighed.

Lin Yijia could understand: their eldest aunt wanted to be kind when she watched them, especially when the three of her sisters were talking.However, her sternness seemed to have been engraved in her bones, so her eyes always showed a sharp knife-like light from time to time, which really made the little girls dare not get close.

"Isn't my sister-in-law helping me?"

Treating Mrs. Feng with such strict experience, Mrs. Lin was very affectionate.As for Mrs. Feng, when Mrs. Lin was speaking, her face would occasionally soften—the relationship between the sister-in-law and sister-in-law could be seen to be sincere.

"With you helping me look after Hui'er and Shi'er, the younger ones will be restrained by the two nieces and daughters-in-law. How can something big happen." Mrs. Lin's previous nervousness has long since disappeared. At this moment With a slight smile on his face, his expression was extremely relaxed.

——The little ones are still young, even if something really happened, what big deal could it be!The most important thing for noble girls in the boudoir is the issue of innocence, but at their age, it is a bit far-fetched for someone who is interested in making a fuss about this aspect; as for the second issue of reputation...they are young, and their reputation is flawed for a while, and they will make up for it later That is, it is nothing more than spending more effort!

Mrs. Feng obviously wanted to understand this, so she nodded slowly.

In front of Mrs. Feng, Mrs. Lin was no longer polite.She thought for a while, frowned slightly, and asked in a low voice: "I seem to feel that the eldest princess is a little dissatisfied with me... Sister-in-law, do you know why? I just came back..."

"Is there such a thing?"

Mrs. Feng and the others are far away from the hall where the eldest princess is, and they can barely see it, but they can't hear it clearly.Mrs. Feng frowned and thought for a moment, her eyes fell on Lin Huijia, and said hesitantly: "If it's really the eldest princess who makes things difficult for no reason... it can only be on the younger generation."

"How do you say it?" Mrs. Lin straightened herself up.

The others also seemed to be listening, but their eyes were still paying attention to the crowd around them.

"Three years ago, Wu Xinghou wiped out more than a thousand enemies in the northwest, and even took the head of the second largest tribe leader of Xirong on the northwest grassland, and presented it to the current Holy One. The Holy One was overjoyed and rewarded Wuxinghou's mansion Not to mention a lot of gold and silver, but Wu Xinghou's only daughter, Yuan Xin, was made princess. You should know about this?"

"Princess Yuanxin..." Mrs. Lin nodded thoughtfully, and said, "I know that."

Mrs. Feng took a look at Lin Huijia, and said in a low voice: "You must have already figured it out. It is rumored that Princess Yuanxin is very fond of the son of Rongjun Prince. Excuse me...it's a pity that the old concubine finally took a fancy to your Huier."

Three years ago, when the old concubine went south...

If this is the case, then the eldest princess only stabbed them indistinctly, and did not embarrass them too much, which is considered extremely magnanimous.

Nodding her head, Mrs. Lin quickly asked, "Does the sister-in-law know what kind of person that Princess Yuanxin is? Is she here at this time?"

"Before you came, the princess made an appearance, and then went to the back garden with a few noble ladies."

I have to agree that Mrs. Feng chose this position very well.Sitting here, not to mention not attracting much attention, the angle of view is quite wide - you can see the new guests from the front clearly, and you can also pay attention to the movement at the garden gate in the back garden.

Mrs. Feng beckoned and asked a tea maid in the Hou Mansion to bring a pot of new water to their table, and rewarded her with a silver coin. After she thanked her and left, she continued: "With her background , Princess Yuanxin has a very good personality, but she is a little proud, and rarely pays attention to anyone, so she has few friends. She only gets along with the young lady of Dingguo Gongfu. Both noble girls have learned Girls who are not skilled in martial arts, love riding and archery, and often go out to play together. But these two noble girls are not domineering and arrogant, and have not heard of any deeds of bullying others. But... if she really likes the prince of the county , then it’s not easy to say.”

Proud but not arrogant, that is the character that a well-educated noble girl from a top family should have.But just because of pride, the man she likes refuses her to turn around and ask someone else to marry him. It's just like someone digging hard at his heart. How can Princess Yuanxin not be ashamed and resentful!If her resentment were to be directed at Lin Huijia...

Mrs. Lin couldn't help but glanced at her most proud eldest daughter.
