The four of them went to Xuan Yi's house together. Mr. Fan and Mrs. Fan both went to Jiyuntang and were not at home. When Bizhu, Guifu and other servants heard that Yanran turned out to be the prime minister's daughter and a real rich lady, they were so shocked that they said
He was speechless, including the attitude of the butler Fan Gang, who was a little disdainful of Yanran at the beginning, and his attitude changed drastically. He smiled flatteringly but became stammered due to panic: "Er... ah no, Lin... ah no?"
This made the girls and servants around them suppress their smiles, wanting to laugh but not daring to laugh. Only Xuan Yi and Zheng Hao laughed.
Yan Ran smiled: "What are you doing, are you stupid? I am still your second young lady!"
I wanted to tease him again, because on weekdays, although Fan Gang also called Yanran "Second Miss", he always had a look of contempt on his face, which made Yanran feel very uncomfortable. Soon a servant from the Prime Minister's Mansion came to report that Prime Minister Lin was back.
I wanted to see the lady as soon as possible. Yuchen and Yanran came back in a hurry.
There were already many people in the front hall, chattering. When Yanran and Yuchen entered, it suddenly became silent, and they all turned to look at Yanran.
Yanran could see that there was surprise, jealousy, resentment, and love in the eyes of these people.
Counting silently, not counting the girls, apart from myself and Yuchen, there were five people. The eldest lady, the second lady, the second lady's daughter, and there was also a man in his forties sitting on the chair, who looked like Yuchen.
It's a bit similar. Needless to say, it must be Lin Bingwei.
On the way back, I heard that Prime Minister Lin should have three wives. Yuchen's mother was the eldest lady, and she died in childbirth after giving birth to Yuchen. Yanran's mother, Yulian, was originally the personal maid brought by the eldest lady from her natal family.
, although she was a maid, she was like a sister to the eldest lady, and she was also pretty. After the eldest lady died, she took the initiative to stay and took care of Yuchen and Prime Minister Lin more carefully. Originally, Yuchen's mother had proposed to the prime minister before she was alive.
Taking Yulian as my concubine, she naturally became the eldest lady of the Lin family.
Lin Bingwei's mother thought Yulian was of low origin, so she forced Lin Bingwei to marry another wife. Yulian had a daughter named Yanran a year later, and the second wife also gave birth to a daughter half a year after the first lady. This second wife was Mrs. Lin's.
Niece.
"How can this be? Close relatives are not suitable for marriage." Yanran frowned when she heard this.
"Why?" Yuchen looked puzzled: "But there are many couples who are cousins?"
Only then did Yan Ran remember that there were indeed many cousins in ancient times, so she asked: "Is Lin Yanxue smart?" Because close relatives are more likely to give birth to deformed children, but not all of them are deformed.
"Smart, just like my sister who is good at playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting, she is also pretty, but I always feel that she is not as pleasing to the eyes as my sister." Lin Yuchen said it calmly, but he revealed his personal preferences clearly.
"Yanran, brother wants to remind you that you must be careful with the Second Madam and Yanxue, and of course the girls in their room. They used to bully you a lot. I'm afraid you will forget what happened in the past and not be on guard against them. After all,
Brother can't stay with you forever." Before walking into the front hall, Lin Yuchen put his mouth on Yanran's ear and warned her carefully.
Yanran walked in slowly and scanned the area with eyes.
The eldest lady was dressed very plainly. She wore a long moon-white dress with some plum blossoms embroidered on the cuffs. She only had a plum blossom hairpin on her head and a pearl necklace around her neck, but her appearance was beautiful.
But it was not covered at all, and instead had a different kind of elegance. At this time, she was looking at herself happily with her eyes.
The second lady looked very enchanting. She was dressed in a light pink brocade dress, with a head full of pearls and emeralds. She wore thick makeup and makeup, but it was obvious that her face was still very pretty. She seemed to really like to be pushy, no matter what time.
She wanted to overwhelm the eldest lady in terms of momentum. Yanran found that the way she looked at her showed more surprise and confusion. Was she frightened by her own beauty? Haha, but looking at the daughter next to her, she looked
It's also extremely beautiful.
Lin Yanxue! Yanran smiled in her heart. If this beautiful woman who looked like ice at this time was willing to smile, it would definitely add a lot of charm. She is also very beautiful, but her pink face has an evil aura.
Liao Yanran had a cold look and sharp eyebrows, which ruined her original delicate appearance.
"Ran'er, why are you standing there, come here and see dad!" The eldest lady came over and pulled Yan Ran to Lin Bingwei.
Only then did Yan Ran come back to her senses. She had just been looking at the people around her, but she had neglected the most important thing.
"Ran'er is unfilial. I haven't been around to take care of him in the past few years." Yanran curtsied to Lin Bingwei. Seeing that Lin Bingwei's eyes were moist, Yanran's heart felt sour.
"Good boy, Dad has missed you so hard these past few years!" Lin Bingwei quickly supported Yanran.
"Master, is this true?" Yanran was about to comfort Lin Bingwei when she heard a cold and harsh word.
"That's right, Daddy, you're not a fake trying to get rich, are you?" The other voice, although delicate, sounded even harsher.
"Shut up!" Yanran knew it was Yuchen just by the voice without looking up.
Yuchen's eyes were full of anger, and he looked at the second lady and Lin Yanxue angrily. If eyes could kill, two corpses must have fallen in front of him.
"Master, Yuchen actually..." The second lady's eyes were full of tears and she was sobbing.
Although the second lady is Lin Bingwei's mother's niece, she relies on her mother-in-law and does not pay attention to Yanran and her daughter at all. But Lin Yuchen is the only grandson of the Lin family, and the old lady loves her very much. Therefore, the second lady does not dare to do anything.
annoyed him.
"Ran'er, please sit down, while Yuchen goes to invite grandma over." Lin Bingwei turned a deaf ear to the second lady's words. He pulled Yanran to sit down, and everyone else also sat down.
"Yes, dad." Lin Yuchen glanced at Er Niang and Yan Xue coldly before going out.
