Second spring

Early the next morning, Lin Yijia was teased by Lin Minjia and Lin Jiakang for a long time.

However, Lin Yijia didn't care - the two of them were obviously jealous, especially Lin Jiakang, who would never have the chance to sleep with his mother, so what if he made a joke?

With them joking around and laughing like this, the atmosphere in the breakfast room was relatively relaxed.

Lin Yijia took a peek at Lin Huijia, and found that overnight, the coldness on her pretty face had disappeared, and she had regained her ladylike gentleness and composure.But, in that faint smile, where is there a little sincere smile?At this time, she was not shy about going to Rongjun Prince's Mansion, as if she was just going to an unimportant place...

Ugh.

Lin Yijia felt sad.

If a daughter has no expectations for her own marriage, what will her life be like in the future?What mother said was so stern and relentless, could it be an overkill?

Mrs. Lin seemed to be aware of her eldest daughter's state of mind at this time.

Anxiety and distress flashed across her brows, but she didn't say any soothing words, she just lightly reminded the girls to pay attention to their words and demeanor, and then took them into the carriage and drove to Rongjun Palace.

Rongjun Wangfu is located in Pingguifang in the north of Shengjing City, very close to the imperial city.

This is an old house. From the outside, it looks thick and simple with blue bricks and high walls.As soon as you enter the vermilion gate, turn around the tall and generous sapphire screen wall that has experienced vicissitudes of life, and drive through the second gate, the feeling in front of you is completely different——

The ground paved with white stones is spotless, glowing with clean brilliance in the sunlight.Although it is winter.But there are few bare and unsightly dead trees here. On the evergreen trees, every green leaf is extraordinarily green and bright as if it has been carefully scrubbed. Not even a single yellow leaf can be seen... And all the buildings are As if it had just been refurbished, the paint on the pillars was brand new.

Vibrant and full of life.

Princess Rongjun brought the family members of the family to the second gate in person.She is a somewhat wealthy lady, with a happy smile and a very amiable appearance.Mrs. Lin was about to lead the daughters to the ceremony, but she held her back.He smiled and said, "I am looking forward to you! Rong Qing, why are you paying so much courtesy to me? Go in quickly, the old lady is waiting."

"That's right, if Ma'am, if you don't come again, our concubine will probably go to the Lin Mansion!" The person who spoke was the side concubine of the Lin Mansion, Mrs. Zhou.She looks younger than the concubine, with a graceful figure and a gentle smile, which makes people feel good about her.

Mrs. Lin's expression was somewhat terrified on purpose, and she hurriedly smiled and said, "What's the matter, you are so tired, you came here in person!" She then explained: "Wangfei and side concubine said so. It seems that I It’s my fault. I’ve only just returned to Beijing, so there are too many things to worry about…”

Talk about it.The Royal Palace of Rongjun, Concubine Zhou, Mrs. Lin are not much different in age from each other. Although they didn't have any special friendship in their early years, they all knew each other by face.Now, the two families are getting married soon, and they will meet again.How can it look rusty?

"Okay, okay..." Princess Rong interrupted Mrs. Lin, and said with a smile: "This is what you said. You save it and explain it to the old lady! Now you, hurry up and don't delay any longer. It's serious!"

Mrs. Lin stopped insisting, and after a salute, she got on the small oil truck.

The small oil truck walked along the Baishi Road for about a cup of tea. After avoiding a courtyard in the middle, it walked back for a while. The residence of the princess of the county, Rongxiangtang.

The old concubine of the county was all smiles when she saw a few people coming in, and received a big gift from Mrs. Lin, and then waited for the juniors to come forward to pay respects one by one, each of them had a valuable meeting gift——

Lin Huijia got a small red sandalwood box.She didn't open it at first, but the old lady smiled and motioned her to open it.

This is a blood jadeite that is as red as drops of blood and is transparent and flawless. It is carved and ground into the shape of a peony. It is completely natural and exudes the ultimate grace and beauty.

Of course, blood jadeite is very rare and rare.But it was not worth being surprised when it was sent from the hands of the old lady.Lin Huijia showed a bit of liking, and was about to thank the old lady again, but heard a girl who couldn't control it: "Blood peony! Why did you give this to her, grandma!"

But it was Princess Linglong.

Ever since the Lin family came in, she had been staring at Lin Huijia intently without speaking.But at this moment, when he spoke suddenly, it was so abrupt that everyone in the hall couldn't help but change their colors.

"This...?" Mrs. Lin pondered.

The princess of the county frowned slightly, and scolded softly: "Linglong!"

Concubine Zhou hurriedly laughed and said: "Linglong, this is a moment when the child's heart is broken again! You don't know, Linglong asked the old lady for this piece of blood jade peony pendant a few years ago. Well, the old lady did not reward her, but rewarded her with something else. I saw it again today, and I must be a little surprised for a while."

"Grandmother, don't you love Linglong the most?" Princess Linglong looked aggrieved, and was about to shake the old matriarch's arm coquettishly.

"Nonsense!" Princess Jun's face turned cold, and she reprimanded: "I have indulged you too much these years, do you have to get what you want?"

"Since the princess likes it..." Lin Huijia didn't care.This thing is rare, but she is not rare.

The concubine of the county turned her face, calmed down her expression, and explained to Lin Huijia and Mrs. Lin: "Linglong also doesn't know something. There is a pair of this jade, but they are obtained from a rough stone. What is rare is that one side It's a blood jadeite, and one side is black jade... When Emperor Yuan got such a rough stone, he asked craftsmen to process it into two peony jade pendants, which were later awarded to the ancestors of the county kings. Later, they came into the hands of my father."

"When the prince of the county met me by chance, he thought it was true, so he left a red jadeite as a letter." The old princess of the county took the topic, with a somewhat disappointed expression on her face.She and the deceased old county king got to know each other well, and the husband and wife were very harmonious.When he was young, the old county king took in a few houses, and later dismissed them all...

"I gave that black jade to Yan'er in the early years. This red jade has always been in my hands, and I just gave it away today..." The old princess looked at Lin Huijia, her eyes were full of relief.

Is it a token of love?

But this token was sent by someone else, and his own wishes may not be known... Lin Huijia quietly glanced at Zhao Shiyan, who was calm and still rich and handsome, and then looked at the black jade on his waist , with a little sarcasm in my heart.

But in any case, with such a meaning, this blood jade is indeed not suitable for Princess Linglong.Although Princess Linglong still looked a little angry, she didn't make a sound anymore. She opened her eyes wide and looked at Zhao Shiyan and Lin Huijia again and again.

"Then Hui'er, you can wear it." Mrs. Lin ordered with a smile when she heard the words.

Lin Huijia was slightly startled, and quickly answered "Yes", and took off the original green jade ring on her body, and replaced it with the blood jade ring.The dripping red peonies bloomed between the moon-white skirts, adding wealth and grace to the gentle and calm her.

The old matriarch looked at the pair of bi people standing not far away, he was very satisfied, his face was full of joy.She looked and looked, and then let Lin Huijia go back to her seat.Turning around and seeing Princess Linglong's slightly pursed mouth, the old lady said to her with a smile: "Don't be greedy. Your grandmother still has some good jade, so you can choose as you want later!"

Princess Linglong opened her face and said with a smile: "Thank you, grandma! Grandma is the best!" She then flattered the old concubine without mentioning tea.

When it was the princess's turn, she didn't give anything meaningful, but she also gave a set of extremely precious ruby ​​heads with phoenix wings. Obviously, she was very satisfied with Lin Huijia after seeing it.Concubine Zhou also smiled and gave a pair of eight-treasure dragon and phoenix bracelets as a response.

Lin Minjia, Lin Yijia and Lin Jiakang also got a meeting gift.After this salutation, the old concubine said: "Yan'er, Linglong, it's the first time for the brothers and sisters of the Lin family to come, so you take them around the garden, treat them well, and don't neglect them."

"Grandmother, don't worry!" Linglong smiled crisply.

Zhao Shiyan also answered "Yes" with a smile, and turned around to invite the juniors of the Lin family.

As soon as everyone walked out of the room, before the four members of the Lin family waited for a greeting, Princess Linglong took Zhao Shiyan's arm and said coquettishly, "Brother, why didn't you tell me the origin of the jade pendant?" Make others lose their face and be laughed at!"

"Oh? I remember I told you?" Zhao Shiyan's smile was a little more sincere.

Princess Linglong tilted her head and said, "That's right! He forgot about it!" Then he said confidently: "In short, it's brother, you're sorry for me! I want you to pay me!"

"Okay, I'll just pay you back. I'll pay you whatever you want, how about it? Don't make trouble now, okay?" Zhao Shiyan casually broke away from Princess Linglong's entanglement, leaving her a step or two away From a distance, she said to the Lin family sisters: "Linglong has had a good relationship with me since she was a child, and she often played around. She has a childish temper."

Lin Huijia smiled slightly: "The princess is so straightforward, people like it at first sight."

Her words were also due to be polite, but when Princess Linglong heard it, she immediately blurted out: "How could you fall in love with it at the first sight, hypocrisy!"

Lin Huijia was stunned for a moment.

Zhao Shiyan hurriedly grabbed Princess Linglong, and said apologetically to Lin Huijia: "Don't be as knowledgeable as her. She loves to learn the rules, and my mother dared not take her out because she was afraid that she would not be able to speak..."

If the daughter of a side concubine doesn't know the rules, how can she be loved and loved by the people in the family?Look at the old concubine of the county just now, Linglong is obviously at fault, but she still has to take out the treasures for her to choose to coax her!If she was not favored, if she hadn't been favored by Princess Hongyue and the Empress Dowager as the rumors said, how could she have been crowned Princess as her concubine's status as a concubine!

This little girl is obviously hostile to her!

Then Zhao Shiyan was just covering up and conniving!

However, Lin Huijia didn't care.She suddenly smiled brightly, and said to Princess Linglong: "The princess is really outspoken! What I said just now is not just hypocritical polite words!"
