The boss of the end of the world wears a red building, if you don't agree, just hold it

After Lin Chengyu entered the mansion, he first went to Rongqing Hall to pay his respects to Lady Jia. Jia Min had already arrived. Everyone in the room was talking and laughing. At least six out of ten sentences were talking about the emperor's grace, or about how great the imperial concubine was.

As soon as Lin Chengyu entered, Grandmother Jia's eyes suddenly lit up and she asked him to come over and sit down. Lin Chengyu bowed and sat aside. "Grandmother, you look really good today."

Before Grandmother Jia could say anything, Madam Wang spoke first, "Nephew, what you said is clear. Nowadays, happy events are coming one after another in the mansion. Isn't the old lady happy? So I called you over so that everyone can be happy together."

Lin Chengyu seemed to have just seen Madam Wang. "I didn't realize that my second aunt was here just now. I hope you can forgive me."

Mrs. Wang was dissatisfied. She was the biological mother of the imperial concubine. How dare this boy pretend that he didn't see her? What did he mean?

"Nephew, don't be like this. You are just a little kid, and you are a little rude. Can we, the elders, say anything?" Madam Wang picked up a piece of dessert with a fake smile and put it in her mouth to taste it carefully. "This dessert is made very delicately. You don't know it if you don't go into the kitchen. Although it looks soft and delicious now, it was originally hard. It only became like this after some cleaning. If it had known this would happen when it grew on the tree, I think it would be willing to grow like this directly, so as not to suffer this pain."

For a moment, the whole hall was silent.

Lin Chengyu snorted and laughed, as if she didn't understand what she said. "I just said that one sentence, but Second Aunt said so many incomprehensible words. I guess it's because I didn't say it clearly that Second Aunt said these words."

He looked around, taking in everyone's expressions, and then he said slowly, "When I came in just now, I was thinking about paying my respects to my grandmother, and thinking that my second aunt must still be in the Buddhist temple meditating on her past. I didn't notice that my second aunt was also sitting here. I really deserve to be beaten."

Then, without waiting for Madam Wang, whose expression had changed, to speak, he sighed and said, "Second aunt has been fasting and chanting Buddhist scriptures recently. She has indeed become much more haggard. She looks a few years older than the old lady. But don't be sad, second aunt. Maybe the old lady is in high spirits because of the good news. She looks younger."

Mrs. Wang's falsely compassionate face suddenly lost its hold, and her cloudy eyes stared fiercely at Lin Chengyu. Just as she was about to act like an elder and reprimand him for not respecting elders, Jia Min suddenly spoke up, "Chengyu, stop talking nonsense."

Lin Chengyu lowered his head as if he knew he was wrong, and didn't dare to look up out of guilt.

Jia Min looked at Mrs. Wang kindly and said apologetically, "He is just a child and he spoke without restraint. Don't bother with him. I will tell his father when I get home and let his father give him a good lesson."

Since she said so, Mrs. Wang could only say, "We are relatives. It's okay for Chengyu to say that. But if she does the same thing outside, offending people she shouldn't offend, wouldn't that bring disaster to the family? You should take good care of your brother-in-law. If you don't take care of the child, he will never become a useful person."

Jia Min sighed, "Who said it wasn't? His father wanted to take care of him, but as long as he said a word with a cold face, Prince Linhuai would be unwilling to do so. He said that Chengyu was still young and that he thought Chengyu was very good, better than his naughty nephews. When the master heard this, he didn't dare to say anything. Now we don't know what to do with this devil. If my second sister-in-law can discipline him for us, I will personally present a thank you gift."

Everyone was shocked. Who is the nephew of Prince Linhuai? Those are all royal children. If an outsider said this, it would be treason and would be punished. But the one who said this was the most favored youngest brother of the current emperor, who was more favored than the prince. He could say things that others could not say.

Mrs. Wang didn't dare to respond. Wang Xifeng, who was at odds with her, secretly held back her laughter and once again felt that her decision to make friends with the Lin family was the right one. Not to mention anything else, the fact that Aunt Min could suppress her own aunt who had a hypocritical heart and a good mouth was enough to make her laugh for three days and three nights.

"Okay, okay, your Majesty is right. I don't think there is anything wrong with Chengyu." Seeing the solemn atmosphere, Jia's mother cursed Wang Shi, the fool, in her heart, and said to Jia Min with a smile: "You don't know, when she came to the palace to thank the emperor that day, the queen missed her family very much. She just hoped that we could live in harmony and she could serve the emperor in the palace with peace of mind."

Jia Min smiled and said, "That's right. We are all family members. If anyone says something unclear and unreasonable that makes people unhappy, they should be slapped in the face."

These words were a complete humiliation to Lady Wang, making her heart bleed with hatred. However, Lady Jia was watching her closely, and if she said anything else, she would be embarrassed in front of so many young people.

Just wait until later. This old woman can still live for a few more years. When she dies, the Rongguo Mansion will be in her pocket. With the support of the Empress, who would dare to do her the slightest wrong?

Mrs. Wang felt better after thinking about this.

Except for Mrs. Wang who was sitting aside like a wooden stake, everyone else was chatting and laughing happily, as if they had formed an invisible barrier that excluded her.

Madam Wang straightened her back and sat very upright, as if this could cover up her current weakness.

Jia's mother and the others chatted about all sorts of things, and then asked, "It's been a while since my son-in-law returned to the capital. Hasn't the emperor issued an edict yet?"

Jia Min shook her head and said with a smile, "There is no rush. I have been too worried these years in Yangzhou. This is a good time to take a good rest so that I can continue to serve the emperor in the future."

As soon as Lin Chengyu saw Mrs. Wang's expression, she knew she was up to no good.

As expected, after hearing what Jia Min said, Mrs. Wang thought that the Lin family was really in trouble. She suppressed her joy and pride, and pretended to be concerned, saying, "This won't work. There are so many capable officials in the capital. If we delay any longer, the emperor will forget about my son-in-law. What will we do then?"

Jia Min curled her lips and said, "Don't worry about that, my master is very capable. I don't think the day you said will ever come. What's more, even if my master doesn't become an official, we can still live well with our family property."

Mrs. Wang thought that Jia Min was just strong on the outside but weak on the inside. She was trying hard not to show weakness, but in fact she must be terribly scared. "Sister, what you said is too polite. We are family members, and we should not have different opinions. If you need help in the future, you must ask for it. Don't be shy."

"Haha, I don't dare to trouble my second sister-in-law." Jia Min really didn't want to pay attention to her. She glanced at her and turned around to continue talking to Grandmother Jia.

As they were talking, a servant came in with a message, "The Queen sent someone to tell Master Bao to make good preparations in the next few days. The Emperor will summon Master Bao to the palace in a few days."

Mrs. Wang was overjoyed and asked hurriedly, "Did the queen say what it was?"

The messenger replied, "The messenger only said that the emperor wanted to see the Second Master and his jade, but didn't say anything else."

Mrs. Wang clapped her hands and laughed, "The Emperor must be planning to use Baoyu. This is great news, old lady."
