Tragic death and rebirth, married to the abstinent uncle and was spoiled crazy
Chapter 71 Pei Jinan's Thoughtfulness
Chen Yuanyuan smiled awkwardly. She was not stupid. "The Crown Prince is here today, so my uncle must be here too. In front of so many people, Tang Ning is a girl after all. She still needs to maintain her dignity."
Although she is usually strict with Lin Tangning, she is actually a soft-hearted person, not to mention that Lin Tangning is her biological daughter.
No mother would let her daughter lose face and seduce a man.
Although Chen Yuanyuan hoped that Lin Tangning could marry well, she never thought of letting her be so lowly.
If the prince took the initiative in this matter, it would be easy to deal with. But if Lin Tangning took the initiative and was rejected by the prince, Chen Yuanyuan didn't dare to think about how he would get married in the future.
Old Madam Lin glanced at him and said, "Why don't you want your daughter to climb up the ladder and become a phoenix? Are you really satisfied with Tang Ning's life like this?"
In fact, Chen Yuanyuan was naturally moved by what Old Lady Lin said, but nothing was more important than her daughter.
"Mom, I always feel that today is not a good time. Why don't we try again another day..."
Before Chen Yuanyuan could finish her words, she was interrupted by Old Lady Lin, "How can Tang Ning have the opportunity to meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince on ordinary days? Opportunities are rare and will never come again. If we miss the opportunity today, we don't know how long it will take to see him again."
Chen Yuanyuan hesitated for a moment, but finally gritted her teeth and said, "Mom, I'm afraid today is not a good time."
Seeing her plan fail, Old Lady Lin angrily pushed Chen Yuanyuan's hand away and said, "Get lost! Don't let me see you again, you piece of trash! You're a bunch of trash!"
Chen Yuanyuan shrugged her shoulders. She had known for a long time that Mrs. Lin was moody, so she didn't find it strange now. "In that case, I'll leave first. Take care of yourself."
After saying that, she bowed and actually left, leaving Old Mrs. Lin alone lying on the bed sulking.
Who would have thought that Chen Yuanyuan would run into Lin Tangning who came here just as she walked into the door.
She was startled. Thinking of Old Lady Lin's attitude just now, Chen Yuanyuan quickly reached out her hand and pulled Lin Tangning aside and whispered, "What are you doing here? This is not the place for you today."
Lin Tangning looked at her in confusion, lowered her voice and whispered, "The Crown Prince is here, and he will have dinner at the mansion later. How about mother come with me?"
After that she smiled shyly, "I am always a little embarrassed."
Chen Yuanyuan looked at her in disbelief, "Where did you get this information from?"
Lin Tangning turned his head and looked around. After finding no one, he leaned over to whisper in Chen Yuanyuan's ear, "It was the maidservant next to Big Sister who told me to go to the meal with her. Big Sister arranged it."
Chen Yuanyuan frowned upon hearing this, "Lin Tingwan is not a good person. He must have asked you to go today to trip you up. I don't think you are that stupid. Why did you fall for it?"
"Could it be that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has really turned you into a brainless fool?"
Lin Tangning stamped her feet. "Mom, what are you talking about? Big sister would never do such a thing."
She spoke in an even quieter voice, "In fact, I felt from the beginning that elder sister didn't like His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Maybe she thought His Royal Highness and I were a better match and wanted to bring us together." Her face was full of pride as she spoke.
"It's not even dark yet and you've already started dreaming. You said Lin Tingwan doesn't want to be the mother of the country? Wake up. How could she give you this opportunity for nothing?"
Seeing that she didn't believe him, Lin Tangning couldn't help but feel anxious, "Mom, everything I said is true."
Chen Yuanyuan tilted her head and thought about it. After all, this was an opportunity to show off in front of the future emperor. Finally, she nodded and said, "In that case, mother will go with you, but remember, you are not allowed to do anything else when you see His Highness later."
"I don't need to worry, mother, just rest assured."
"I can't feel at ease when you're around." Chen Yuanyuan's tone was a little helpless for a moment.
The two of them walked towards the front yard arm in arm, looking more like sisters than mother and daughter.
Compared to the harmony between the two of them, the front yard was a scene of complete bloodshed.
Pei Jinan and Pei Yanli, two big Buddhas, sat in the main seats, but their mouths seemed to be inlaid with gold, and no one said a word.
Occasionally Lin Mingqian said a few words and they responded, but other than that, an awkward atmosphere lingered between them.
Even Lin Tingwan, who had a strong mental state, felt a little awkward.
Lin Tingwan chuckled twice, "I wonder if Your Highness and the Prince have any dietary restrictions?"
Both of them shook their heads, still looking uninterested in everything. Lin Tingwan couldn't figure out why they wanted to stay in the mansion. It would be great if the family could have dinner together.
Lin Mingqian hasn't been back for quite a while, and this time has been wasted. She couldn't help but look at the two of them with some resentment in her eyes.
Pei Jinan immediately realized why and asked, "How is General Lin these days?"
Lin Mingqian laughed loudly and said, "Everything has been fine recently, and the soldiers are all fine too. Prince Gong, just rest assured. Although we are in Shangjing City now, the training has not been delayed for a single day."
When talking about his soldiers, Lin Mingqian's face was full of enthusiasm.
Pei Yanli nodded. "That's great. The soldiers' training really cannot be relaxed for a single day, lest in the future when Yongjin needs them..."
The three men understood what he meant. The Southern Barbarians had retreated, but only temporarily. Besides, there was also Beixiang in the north who was eyeing them covetously and ready to make a move. No one knew how long Yongjin could remain peaceful.
Pei Jinan spoke at the right time, breaking the silence. He said earnestly, "General Lin has worked hard for Yongjin for half his life. Now he has finally returned from Liangzhou to reunite with his family. Don't forget your family."
As soon as these words came out, everyone couldn't help but look at him a few more times.
Lin Tingwan also looked at him in surprise. The two didn't have much contact in their previous life, so she didn't know what kind of person Pei Jinan was.
But now it seems that he is different from the prince who was rumored to have suppressed the rebellion in the north with iron-blooded means.
Inexplicably, there is a touch of humanity.
Seeing Lin Tingwan's gaze on Pei Jinan, Pei Yanli clenched his fists tightly under the table, his palms aching. Only this kind of pain could calm him down a little.
"Uncle Royal is right." Pei Yanli said slowly.
After saying that, he turned around and looked at Lin Mingqian with a half-smile, "General Lin, how about I ask my father to let you take a few days off? You can spend some time with your family at home."
His words frightened Lin Mingqian, and he felt even more uneasy. All he could think about was whether His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was planning to ask His Majesty to take back his military power?
