Chapter 73 Leverage your strength to play a cat-and-mouse game
Hearing Mr. Huang's question, Lin Jiangwan smiled and said, "It's okay...it's because your bracelet is in good condition! Oh, these days go by so fast! During my father's birthday party, I saw how beautiful Yan Xin was with the yellow pattern."
We were all chatting and laughing together. Isn’t it the same when we were young? Those scenes are still vivid in my mind!"
Huang didn't answer her words. She didn't want to remember the past!
He just said, "My mother asked me to come, and I also want to come. Nothing else. I just want to chat with you. If you have anything to say to me, just tell me. If you don't want to talk, let's just sit for a while and chat for a while."
!”
Lin Jiangwan said slowly, "It's nothing. These days, I've been thinking about... this year's autumn hunt... The emperor has always attached great importance to this grand event. I wonder if Yun'er will go with her this time."
Mrs. Huang said, "It's quite easy for your Majesty to go if you want to go, right?!"
Mrs. Lin said in annoyance, "The first two times, I was too close to the mark, and my body was always not feeling well."
Huang smiled, "I still remember the time when the empress was riding on a horse, so heroic and heroic. She was really a dazzling pearl! Now that I have become an empress, I can no longer jump on a horse and whip my whip. Instead, I can just watch others playing.
It’s not fun to be happy but anxious.”
Lin Jiangwan recalled that when her daughter was unmarried, she was dressed in a red riding uniform, riding on a horse, and galloping around. She looked so chic and beautiful... She smiled proudly.
Lin Jiangwan and Huang didn't take it too seriously and said, "It's not about anything else. If she goes, we two will always be able to talk for a long time... To tell you the truth, she has always been in this position."
If I don’t mention it, my heart feels like it’s fried in oil.”
Mrs. Huang comforted and said, "Actually, you are too concerned to be confused! Empress Zhaoyi didn't mention it. But no one else mentioned it either! The position of imperial concubine has been vacant for so many years, and there is still the position of virtuous concubine... I heard that the Queen Mother mentioned it,
The Empress also mentioned it to the Emperor, but the Emperor didn't nod. That beauty Zhang even gave birth to a prince, didn't she mention it once and then stay on the throne?"
Lin Jiangwan nodded slightly and sighed again: "Tell me, mother, you have given birth to a sixth brother at such an old age. Why is it so difficult for Yun'er and I?!"
Mr. Huang said, "Look, everything else is going very smoothly."
The Yan family is rich and well-established, and Yan Jun is handsome, capable, good-tempered, and devoted to her. Otherwise, why don't he have a son now?
Days like this are something no one else can hope for!
Alas, it's a pity that people's hearts are not enough! Huang was sighing again.
Lin Jiangwan smiled complacently and said, "Not at all! These days, I've been thinking about how to get two sets of appropriate jewelry for Yun'er... I went to a few stores to look at them, and there are some expensive ones... and they look good.
It's... good. But... it just feels like it lacks novelty. When you put it on, it looks old-fashioned and heavy... Alas, you can't take your eyes away even if you take one look at it."
She was stuck in this circle and couldn't get out, but... Huang's thoughts changed and she smiled, "Sister, why do you want to go far away from the near?"
Lin Jiangwan asked, "What did you say?"
Huang smiled and said, "Isn't the third girl back? Look at what she has been wearing all day long. Everything is unique, and nothing is the same!"
Lin Jiangwan suddenly remembered, "Oh, it's true! The mask she was wearing that day..." She recalled it carefully.
On the day of the birthday banquet, Xiu Yatou easily overwhelmed all the girls in the audience.
At that time, I thought it was because she was good-looking. I couldn't help but say, "Ah, I think about it! It's really... ha, her mother was very coquettish when she was young!"
Huang pursed her lips and lowered her eyelids to hide her hatred.
Lin Jiangwan didn't pay attention. She was immersed in her thoughts. She still remembered the first time she saw Lin Zhixiu's mother. She looked like a blooming peony! She was good-looking and had a sweet smile. From head to toe, there was nothing wrong with her.
Not refined.
That expression is carefree and innocent...the eyes are pure and make people jealous.
She followed her own train of thought and said, "Now that I think about it, her mother is really innocent! Haha, but at that time, I just felt that although she was very good-looking, she was stupid. She couldn't figure it out.
Why did the second brother fall in love with her at first glance!? Is it just because she is good-looking? The second brother, so smart, mature, cold and decisive, how could he give up on everything for such a vulgar reason? Haha, An...
...She obviously doesn't even have any brothers in the family, but she still keeps everyone's property, ha! How can she be carefree?" She sneered.
She thought maliciously: The end will indeed be tragic...
Huang was pinching herself hard...
Lin Jiangwan didn't look at her, and continued, "Oh, in the end...that's it. Oh! It's true, at that time, her clothes, shoes and jewelry hardly followed the popular styles. But she was so beautiful.
So much so that everyone is following her lead!"
Lin Jiangwan doesn't like her! She also asked herself, why doesn't she like An?
She is the eldest daughter of the Lin family with an outstanding appearance, and her friends are all the noble girls of the upper class in the capital, and they are all good friends with the princess and the princess! She can have clothes and jewelry as long as they are available in the palace or in the market.
But when Anshi saw him, he was not envious or surprised at all.
She never fawns over her, even if she becomes her eldest aunt!
Maybe it’s because that woman is too self-centered and not affected by others at all?!
Listening to Lin Jiangwan talking softly to himself, Mrs. Huang almost couldn't help but curse.
She resisted, picked up the tea bowl, took a sip, and said coldly, "Well, this tea is really good!"
Lin Jiangwan still didn't pay attention. "Well, what you said makes sense. Later, I'll go to Xiu Yatou's place and have a look... maybe there's something special and interesting."
You must outshine those who follow the rules in the palace!
But Mrs. Huang sighed and said, "Oh, this third girl has quite a variety of temperaments. When she comes back, she disturbs the family... Oh, I look at it, my mother seems to have pity for her. She is so tossing... her behavior is not good."
Rules, bad words! It happened several times... If it were anyone else, I would have been punished long ago. But she!?"
Lin Jiangwan turned to look at her.
Mrs. Huang remained calm, "Oh, I mentioned this to you because those girls of hers always brag about my girls! Oh, they said that the clothes and jewelry of the three girls are hard to find in the sky and not on the ground! So I said it casually,
Just listen. If you really want to ask...you have to be careful! She just came back and her temper is like this. When you find her, she won't be happy and makes a fuss. She is an orphan and we are elders. Let the news spread.
, it doesn’t sound good.”
Lin Jiangwan instinctively refused to accept any words that questioned her.
Hearing what Huang said, she pulled her face and raised her eyebrows, "Hey, what do you think?! Who am I? Can I still be greedy for her things? I just want to see and learn from her. Can I still take it by force?"
"
Lin Jiangwan's tone was extremely unpleasant, and his face turned red.
Mrs. Huang secretly smiled in her heart, but her face was frightened: "Oh, where did you think you were going? I mean, Sanya Tou Niu has a bad temper. My sister-in-law didn't have much trouble, but she suspected that her sister-in-law wanted to be greedy for her things, talk about all kinds of things, and make her angry.
I'm afraid you've also heard about the matter of brother Tang, right?"
Mrs. Lin said, "Oh? I've heard a few words, but I ignored them. What's going on?"
Mrs. Huang told the story about Mrs. Yuan who was adding fuel to the fire and Lin Tang's incident.
Mrs. Huang continued, "I think my sister-in-law just said it casually. The third girl came back too suddenly and she was not prepared. She brought so many things and couldn't just throw them away in the yard. It turned out that she misunderstood. At that time
I was so anxious that I pushed my sister-in-law against her, which was extremely embarrassing... My sister-in-law is her aunt, and she is so indifferent! This third girl... Sigh."
Lin Jiangwan smiled, took a sip of tea, and did not answer.
Misunderstood? Haha!
Lin Tang used the furniture belonging to her second brother and sister, although it didn't sound right to say it, but it was understandable. The capital was rich in land, so how could there be an empty yard left for more than ten or twenty years? (At this moment, she selectively forgot about the court.
It’s about Yunju)
Now that Lin Tang is moving in, where can he put all the furniture that is not for Lin Tang to use? Should it be thrown in an open space to be exposed to the wind and sun? If it is taken to a village in the countryside, it will either be lost or broken!
But this matter about Yuan... Humph! There is no misunderstanding at all!!!
She took one hundred thousand taels of silver from her second brother and his wife! Could this be a misunderstanding?
How could she be content with too much? Haha! She must have planned to continue to swallow up the property in Lin Zhixiu's hands!
Mrs. Yuan...it’s time to wait for me, Yun’er! Let’s see how I deal with you!
Huang saw it and smiled secretly in her heart, but pretended not to know, "She didn't grow up in the capital, so her thoughts will be different from ours! Where is your identity? It would be pointless to face such a wild girl.
!”
Lin Jiangwan knew what was going on, so she stopped explaining and nodded casually.
Mr. Huang added, "It's good to learn from it. If it looks good, draw it or take it to a jewelry store and copy it. You are the most familiar with the famous utensils shop on Dongda Street. Master Cheng in Tianbao Pavilion
, my mother-in-law has used it many times, so if you need to, let him have a look. If the raw materials are difficult to find or the process is complicated, it may take a long time, so hurry up."
"Well, I'll go home in two days."
Mrs. Huang also asked her to take care of her health and not to be tired, and then left.
After getting into the car, Huang's lips curled up.
I heard that when a cat catches a mouse, it doesn't kill it in one bite, but plays with it for a long time...
