These words basically pointed at their noses and scolded them for being uneducated.

Not only did they scold Xue Rou and her daughter rudely, but they also scolded Xue Xujun.

Xue Rou was embarrassed and angry, her eyes were red with resentment, and she wanted to rush over and tear her smug face to pieces, but her mother held her arm tightly and refused to let her move.

Mrs. Lin's expression became increasingly ugly as she looked at Lidong holding his sword in a fierce manner.

He forced a smile at the corner of his mouth and said vaguely: "Your father is usually busy, so you don't see him often, and Rou'er doesn't see him too much. We are all a family, so what are the rules and regulations? As long as we get along well."

After saying this, she changed the subject: "You have been married to the Marquis Mansion for a long time. Are you living comfortably there?"

Xue Mingyue glanced at the tea bowl on the table, caught a glimpse of the tea dregs inside that were similar to those in the teahouse, and laughed out loud.

The grandfather of the Lin family also served as a tutor for His Majesty. Although he has retired now, he still has some kindness in front of His Majesty. I don't know how he raised a daughter like Lin.

However, if it were not for Lin's family background, Xue Xujun would not be able to become the Minister of Rites.

She stretched out her hand and pushed the tea bowl aside, with the corners of her lips raised slightly: "I live naturally and comfortably. Both the Marquis and my grandmother are easy to get along with."

Xue Mingyue tilted her head and asked as if she didn't understand: "Didn't my mother witness the last palace banquet with her own eyes? Is it possible that my mother is like my father, and her memory starts to deteriorate as she gets older? That can't be delayed, it's much more Just eat some walnuts.”

As she said this, she frowned with concern.

Finally, he sighed with regret and said, "If I had known that my mother had the same symptoms, I should have brought more walnuts to the door when I came."

"..."

You have a bad memory! Bad brain!

Mrs. Lin was so angry that the veins on her forehead protruded. She clutched the corner of the table tightly and said word by word: "No need, I have a good memory."

Xue Rou's face was full of anger, and her heart felt like it was sour when she saw her smug look, but she had just been taught a lesson, and now she didn't dare to speak to choke her again, so she could only stare at her fiercely.

Isn't it just relying on the Dingyuan Hou Mansion? Let's wait and see how she will complain when her father comes back!

Xue Mingyue curled her lips helplessly, looked at Ms. Lin with a look that said, "Why are you so ignorant at such an old age?" and said with concern: "Mom, you can't hide your illness and avoid medical treatment. I will ask Mr. Hou to send two more carts of walnuts later."

Mrs. Lin was so angry that she almost vomited blood.

But when she thought about what the master told her, she endured it and said with a forced smile: "Thank you for your trouble."

Xue Mingyue nodded with a smile and said: "It's quite troublesome. Mother also knows that Mr. Hou is very busy on duty at Jinwu Guard. He also has to worry about collecting walnuts for you and dad, which will definitely be very tiring."

Is this reaching out for benefits?

Xue Rou heard what she meant and stood up in confusion, buying and selling by force! How shameless is she?

"This matter has really troubled you and the Marquis. I will send someone to the warehouse to pick some good things for you later." Mrs. Lin didn't find this difficult, but it was just a little benefit.

"Thank you, mother."

Xue Mingyue's eyes flashed with a cunning light, and she said, "I remember that my mother had a set of beautiful glass cups in her hand."

"No!" Xue Rou's eyes widened in shock, and she quickly said: "Mom! You said you wanted to leave it to me as a birthday gift!"

Lin took a deep breath, looked at the gleaming sword in Lidong's hand, and suppressed the depression in her heart.

As the old saying goes, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse.

The Dingyuan Marquis Mansion has indeed declined over the years, but that is all because Xie Lang was still young before. Now that he has passed the first place in the martial arts examination on his own, and with His Majesty's kindness, there is no guarantee that he will not regain the glory of his father's generation in the future.

You can't offend people completely at this time.

Mrs. Lin said, "Okay, I'll have someone take out the glass cup and give it to you later."

Xue Rou stamped her feet in annoyance, glared at them angrily, turned around and ran out of the front hall.

The two people who stayed didn't pay attention. Mrs. Lin couldn't bear to chat with her about family matters again. Seeing that the time was almost up, Tu Qiong said clearly: "Mingyue, I have a few personal words to say to you. Look. …”

Xue Mingyue raised her eyebrows in understanding and gave Liu Yun and Li Dong a look.

Lidong didn't want to leave, so Liuyun pulled her away immediately upon seeing this.

When the servants in the front hall had all retreated, Mrs. Lin did not pretend to be affectionate as mother and daughter, and said matter-of-factly: "Yesterday, the young master of the Yan family rode a horse in the street and was sent to Jingzhao Mansion by the Marquis. His father and your father are Colleague, someone has come to our door asking for help, why don’t you go back and find an excuse for Mr. Marquis to bring him out."

Xue Mingyue shook her head and refused without hesitation.

"No."

"This is your father's wish. Do you want to disobey your father?"

Lin's face instantly became serious.

A mocking smile appeared on Xue Mingyue's lips.

She didn't say a word about the young master of the Yan family beating to death the young master of the Zhenguo General Mansion. It was really her fault.

"Mother, have you forgotten that Miss Yan family framed me for stealing the princess's jade pendant at the palace banquet that day? It's too late for me to be happy about something happening to the Yan family. Why should I beg the Marquis for someone who has nothing to do with it?"

"Didn't your face hurt when Yan Jiaqiu came to your door?"

Lin was naturally unwilling to help.

As soon as the jade pendant was stolen that day, she noticed something was wrong. If the jade pendant was really found on Xue Mingyue, not only would she be embarrassed, but others would also think that the Xue family had a bad family tradition and was raised to steal things. Miss.

It will definitely affect Rou'er's marriage, so it is simply a false alarm.

She was also very annoyed that the master had agreed to help, but she sent someone to ask her father, who also had the same intention and asked her to obey the master and deliver a greeting card to the Hou Mansion.

Seeing Xue Mingyue being so tough, Mrs. Lin felt irritated and could only soften her tone and said:

"Your father doesn't ask you to persuade Mr. Hou, he just wants you to blow the pillow. No matter whether it succeeds or not, your father will not blame you. Your father also wants you to live a good life. Think about your mother's family. Support me, will the Hou Mansion not dare to neglect you?"

The Marquis's treatment of her was indeed good, but that was not because of her mother's family.

It was because Xie Lang and Princess Cen felt guilty towards her.

Glancing at the tea bowl on the table from the corner of her eye, Xue Mingyue blinked her thick eyelashes, suddenly thinking about it, and said: "By the way, mother, the poorly managed teahouse in the East Market in my hands has just been resold."

"Tell me what the teahouse does..."

As soon as the words came out of her mouth, Lin remembered something, her body suddenly stiffened, and her eyes wandered.

Xue Mingyue chuckled and said: "The new owner heard that they will reopen in a few days, and they also said that they have specially invited a theater troupe to perform at the largest Washili in the city tomorrow. I watched their play and it was quite interesting. Mother can go and have a look."

Lin frowned upon hearing this and looked at her suspiciously.

I don't understand why she suddenly mentioned this.

"You can also invite Mrs. Yan to go and take a look. Maybe the problem will be solved."

Xue Mingyue looked at Mrs. Lin pointedly, pursed her lips and smiled innocently.

"I really like the square Duan inkstone that dad collected."
