A beautiful daughter came to the Xiangfu

Lin Qingyang returned to the Lin Mansion.

This was her first year after marrying into Prince An’s Mansion, and also her first year after arriving in Beijing. However, there was something a little “weird” about Prince An’s Mansion.

Logically speaking, the Lin Mansion should be decorated with lights and be full of joy. After all, Prime Minister Lin holds a high position, and there is a tutor in the family. The eldest daughter in the family is about to go to the Prince's Mansion, so there is nothing to be unhappy about.

However, it was these "happy events" that made Lin Xiang feel uneasy.

After Lin Qingyang returned home, Prime Minister Lin had a long talk with her.

From Prime Minister Lin’s words, we can see the predicament that the Lin family is facing, but Prime Minister Lin did not say it explicitly. However, when it comes down to it, it all comes down to the word “money”.

Lin Qingyang was puzzled at first. She didn't need any help from her parents' home. Even if she had no money, she would not go back to the Lin family to ask for money. Why did Prime Minister Lin cry poor? Moreover, when she got married, the Lin family didn't give her much as a dowry.

Later, Lin Qingyang realized that Lin Meir might want to extort some money from him.

She's not the prince's principal wife, so why did he think of targeting me? I can save a lot of money by not being the principal wife!

Prime Minister Lin also tried to test her life in Prince An's mansion. Lin Qingyang answered appropriately according to her preparations before coming. She also said some "bad things" about Prince An, so that others would feel that her life was not easy, which would help others feel more balanced.

Lin Meir just can't stand seeing others doing better than her.

After leaving Prime Minister Lin, she naturally had to go to Lin Meir's place. After all, she went home to see the future "favored concubine" of the Crown Prince's Mansion.

Today, Lin Qingyang returned home alone, dressed simply but elegantly.

When I turned into my aunt's courtyard, I heard discordant scolding from inside.

"You're already a big kid, you should know some rules. It's useless to follow you..."

Lin Qingyang recognized that it was her aunt's voice, and also knew who the words were addressed to.

The only one who can be called a child in this yard is my uncle's illegitimate son, who is a little over four years old.

And these words must be directed to Aunt Xue.

Lin Qingyang pretended not to know what was going on inside and walked in slowly.

When Chen saw Lin Qingyang, she pretended to be fine and acted kindly. Aunt Xue had experienced many such things and was also very calm.

They greeted each other, and Aunt Xue took her little cousin aside.

Lin Qingyang stretched out her hand to call the child. Originally, the child was quite close to Lin Qingyang, but now that someone had said something bad about him, he was feeling aggrieved. Since Lin Qingyang, his sister whom he hadn't seen for a long time, was here, he naturally wanted to be closer to her.

Lin Qingyang hugged Lin Yong in his arms, "Oh, it's been a long time since we last met. You've grown taller, but you haven't gained much flesh. Are you being picky about food?"

Lin Yong blinked his big eyes and said in a sweet voice, "Yong'er is not picky about food."

In fact, even without saying it, Lin Qingyang knew in her heart that Aunt Xue was being bullied. Although Lin Yong was her uncle's son, Chen would also cut costs on his food. After all, Lin Meir was now the "sky" of the Lin family, and it would not be noticeable if a child skipped one or two meals.

Lin Qingyang asked Zisu to pass a bag of candy over, "Yong'er, this is the delicious food that your sister brought for you. Take it, and remember not to be picky about food. You will grow taller and will have to protect the Lin family in the future!"

Although Lin Qingyang said this to Lin Yong, he was also speaking to others. The purpose of Chen letting his uncle marry Aunt Xue was to give birth to a boy, so this boy naturally carried the hopes of the Lin family.

Lin Yong seemed to understand and nodded.

Regardless of whether the child understands or not, he generally won't say anything easily. Although he is very young, he already knows a lot. Some things can be said when there are many people around, while some things can only be said when there are few people around.

"My aunt has been very busy recently. She has to take care of my sister before and after the New Year. Fortunately, Yong'er on Aunt Xue's side is young and not someone to worry about. After a while, my sister will go to the Prince's Mansion, and you will have less to worry about."

Lin Qingyang seemed not to have heard what was said when she entered the room. She knew that her aunt was targeting Lin Yong, but if Lin Yong was kept by her, he would be spoiled.

"It's not easy for Princess An to stay in the mansion. If your sister had the fate of being your principal wife, I would be very relieved. Mei'er is not as good as you in every way. How can I let go of this heart?"

Chen seemed to be praising Lin Qingyang, but in fact she was mocking her.

After all, the "news" that Lin Qingyang gave to the Lin family was that she was not living a good life, but the reputation of the young Prince An had not changed, and he was still considered a playboy with many concubines. Although many people in the capital had witnessed the "intimacy" between Prince An and Princess An, others still did not believe that a man could become a better person after getting married.

Everyone wants to marry the prince. If she becomes the prince's wife, she will become the queen in the future. How can that be the same as marrying a princess who is just a decoration?

Lin Qingyang covered her lips with a handkerchief and smiled.

"My sister is lucky. She is well-known in the capital. With the status of her uncle and grandfather, she is more than qualified to be the principal wife of the Eastern Palace."

Lin Qingyang likes to agree with Chen's words. This mother and daughter will become proud when you praise them.

"Is my sister still learning the rules?" Lin Qingyang asked.

"Well, today is a holiday, and she is practicing in her room!" Chen's tone was full of pride, as if her daughter was very hardworking.

"Then I'll go see my sister. I brought her some rouge, powder and jewelry."

Chen nodded and asked her to go find Lin Meir. Lin Qingyang entered the inner courtyard and went straight to Lin Meir's room.

Lin Meir was not practicing at all. She was playing cards with two little girls behind closed doors to pass the time.

Lin Qingyang deliberately shouted loudly: "Mei'er, sister is here to see you."

After saying that, she slowly pushed the door open. Two maids inside were busy collecting the cards. Lin Meir stopped Lin Qingyang, pulled her aside, and called her "sister" in an extremely intimate manner.

I guess the things over there have been almost packed up, and Lin Meir finally relaxed.

Lin Qingyang pretended to know nothing.

"I heard from my aunt that you have been working hard and practicing etiquette even if you are alone, so I came to give you something."

After saying that, she asked the servants behind her to open the rouge, powder and jewelry she had prepared and put them in front of Lin Meir. Although Lin Meir had no shortage of food and clothing, the things Lin Qingyang brought were indeed the freshest styles. Whether it was the outer packaging or the inner style and taste, they were all very eye-catching.

Lin Meir originally wanted to be a little more "arrogant", but as a materialistic person, she simply couldn't be "arrogant".

"Sister, try these things. The prince asked someone to prepare them for me, but I think they are suitable for you who are about to go to choose a concubine." As he said this, he began to try them on Lin Meir.

Lin Meier frowned and didn't dare to ask directly, "The prince prepared this for you. It seems that the prince cares about you very much?"

"What do you care about? But because I am the principal wife, I am not afraid of you laughing at me. The prince doesn't even go to my room!"
