Zhao Yu was not a gentleman to begin with. Although he was forced by Zhao Cheng to attend Mrs. Lin's birthday banquet. But after he saw so many ladies from the ladies, he put behind him the depression of his previous plan not succeeding.
He even ignored Zhao's suggestion to keep a low profile.
He straightened up his appearance, put on his most proud pose, and began to show off his charm to many young ladies.
Having been around flowers for a long time, he certainly knows that the so-called romantic and suave ways he used in brothels will not work here. No matter what happens behind the scenes, these ladies of the world are very reserved in front of others.
Therefore, even though he appeared in public, he still looked like a handsome gentleman. Not to mention, his dog-like appearance really fooled some people's eyes. Some people actually gave him many autumns.
of spinach.
This made Zhao Yu feel very good. He thought that if it were these people, he would still be willing to scheme against them. That country girl should just stay somewhere cool.
If Zhao Cheng found out that his grandson had actually forgotten about business, he didn't know how angry he would be.
The fact is that Lin Zhu had been wary of the Zhao family for a long time, so he tried every means to see Zhao Yu's true face. But Zhao Yu didn't take Lin Zhu seriously because of his dissatisfaction in his heart. Therefore, he didn't know
What does Linzhu look like?
Although Lin Zhu is still far from being a peerless beauty, she is still a pretty little beauty. In addition, she is nourished by her own special food, and her previous malnutrition has long since disappeared.
Although her figure is still a little thin, her lips are red and her teeth are white, and her face is like fat. If you look closely, you can hardly see the pores on her white face. Among all the ladies present, she is the only one who does not wear makeup.
However, among these fat and thin people, Lin Zhu was inconspicuous, so he did not attract anyone's attention.
Besides, Lin Zhu sat in Lin Qinglan's boudoir for a while and knew that Lin Qinglan had to go out to entertain guests. So, she told Lin Qinglan that she was fine, and the two of them went out together.
The appearance of the two people together naturally attracted the attention of some ladies. After all, Lin Qinglan's status was still very high. In addition, her gentle temperament made her quite popular among the ladies.
Therefore, the ladies who came to the meeting came to greet Lin Qinglan one after another. Although Lin Zhu was not ignored, compared to Lin Qinglan's popularity, she could only be regarded as a foil.
Fortunately, Lin Zhu didn't care about this. She found a pavilion and sat there, admiring the design of the courtyard in Lin's mansion. She also regarded the ladies and ladies in bloom as scenery.
With his eyes looking around, Lin Zhu suddenly spotted Zhao Yu's figure. Originally, Lin Zhu wanted to avoid this person because he hated him. But after observing carefully for a while, he found that his attention was not on her, but on his eyes.
Staring at Lin Qinglan's face passionately.
That look made Lin Zhu feel a chill in his heart. He thought that he must remind Lin Qinglan to be on guard against this scoundrel so as not to fall victim to his schemes.
However, it was a place where the ladies were chatting. No matter how high Zhao Yu's status was, it was impossible for him to come over. He could just take a look at it from a distance. It was simply impossible to go further.
Among the many beautiful women, Zhao Yu finally met someone who made his heart beat. How could he let it go? However, after all, he still considered that this was the Lin Mansion and was related to the Hui'an Marquis Mansion by marriage, so he was cautious.
I just asked the boy next to me to find out Lin Qinglan’s identity.
When he learned that Lin Qinglan was the second daughter of the Lin Mansion, he couldn't help it. He almost wanted to go back to the Hou Mansion immediately and ask his family to propose marriage to Lin Qinglan for him. But he didn't know that when he mentioned it to Zhao Cheng
What kind of expression did Zhao Cheng have when this happened?
It is already April, and the weather is relatively warm, so everyone has put on spring clothes, and even the colors of their clothes have become brighter. The ladies from all the families are not willing to follow their mothers or elders and listen to those hall meetings.
Or opera.
Therefore, the garden of Lin Mansion became a place for everyone to relax.
Since it is a garden, a pond is indispensable. After all, as a dignified person, who doesn’t have a yard of more than ten acres? A pond is a standard feature.
It is already the spring season, and the pond is naturally full of life. The fish raised by Lin Mansion also jump out dutifully at this time to provide some interesting activities for everyone. For example, feeding the fish and admiring their various
Swimming style.
Although Lin Zhu didn't want to get close to this kind of scene that was often mentioned in TV series or novels where people could do things cheaply, he could only follow the crowd and observe.
Walking carefully around the edge of the pond, Lin Zhu asked Minglu and Mu Jingwen to pay attention to the situation around them. Because of this, Lin Zhu fell behind the crowd, allowing Zhao Yu, who was pretending to be lost, to take a look.
"You are so polite, young lady. I accidentally lost my way. May I ask how to get to the West Courtyard?" Zhao Yu saw the Lin Zhu in front of him. Although he was not particularly beautiful, upon closer inspection, he still had a unique charm. His eyes also lit up.
.
However, the boy next to him knew Lin Zhu. Previously, Mrs. Zhao specially sent someone to identify Lin Zhu for him. However, Lin Zhu did not know about this.
The boy's face changed a little. He quietly pulled the corner of Zhao Yu's clothes and whispered something in his ear. Zhao Yu's face changed slightly.
"My young lady is not familiar with the roads of Lin Mansion, so please ask the young master to ask others." Lin Zhu ignored Zhao Yu's plan and only let Ming Lu answer for her. She herself was ready to leave.
Fortunately for Lin Zhu, the place she was in was relatively open. Zhao Yu's behavior was also exposed to others, and there was nothing rude about it.
After Minglu finished speaking, Lin Zhu took the lead and left immediately. He left as if avoiding a savage beast, which made Zhao Yu very embarrassed.
He was even more dissatisfied with Lin Zhu's ignorance. "Grandfather is talking about her? Did you remember correctly?" He asked the boy with a gloomy face.
"Master Sun, it's her. My aunt sent someone to identify me." The boy nodded and said.
"Huh, she is from the country as expected." Zhao Yu, who felt good about himself, felt very bad when he was ignored by others. "Although this young master doesn't like me, who can tell her to be so ignorant. Go and let aunt arrange it."
This young master must teach her a lesson."
Zhao Yu was used to being fawned over by the women in his house, and he felt very uncomfortable with people like Lin Zhu who didn't like him. Lin Zhu's indifference actually aroused some of his interest.
Lin Zhu quickly returned to Lin Qinglan. Of course, her situation just now was also noticed by Lin Qinglan. "Sister Xiaozhu, what happened just now?" In order to prevent Lin Zhu from being suspected behind his back, Lin Qinglan stood in front of many young ladies.
In person, he asked.
"It's nothing. Just now a young man said that he lost his way here," Lin Zhu smiled slightly and said calmly to everyone's probing eyes, "It's just that I don't know the way to the Lin Mansion, so help me
Can't reach him."
As soon as she finished speaking, everyone lost interest. For such a simple thing, everyone just felt very bored. Almost immediately, no one paid attention to this matter anymore.
Seeing everyone's reaction like this, Lin Zhu felt relieved.
As the master, Lin Qinglan sent a maid to show the way to Zhao Yu, who was still standing there. Zhao Yu, who was still standing there, returned without success.
In fact, Mu Qiyue also arrived at the Lin Mansion. However, he did not want to see Lin Qingxue, so he stayed with the male guests and did not move around the Lin Mansion at all. He only stayed in the west courtyard.
Although he was somewhat silent, he also attracted the attention of some people, but they kept their identity and not only could not understand Mu Qiyue's business, but also had some rejection. Therefore, Mu Qiyue stayed in an unattractive place from beginning to end.
Places to pay attention to.
Zhao Yu returned to the west courtyard under the guidance of the maid. After the maid left, his expression immediately turned ugly. He walked to a secluded place with the servant and cursed in a low voice, "Who does that bitch think she is?
I dare not take this young master seriously. I must make her look good. Isn't it just that she has climbed into the Chang family? She has even lost her official position. I want to see how I can stand up for a country girl like her.
"
The boy was obedient beside Zhao Yu, nodding his head in agreement.
"Let Auntie think of a way, doesn't it mean that she has to marry me? That's not simple." Zhao Yu said self-righteously, with a proud look on his face.
They didn't realize at all that someone heard their conversation in a corner where they didn't pay attention. The master and servant walked away minding their own business.
Mu Qiyue clenched his hands tightly, and the veins on his arms stood out. His face was also very gloomy. He did not expect that someone would actually want to design Lin Zhu. How could he bear this?
Mu Qiyue also recognized the identity of the person just now, and knew that he was the second grandson of the Marquis of Hui'an. He was not a very good person. He also knew that the third wife of the Lin family, Zhao, was his aunt.
The two of them actually secretly planned to destroy Lin Zhu's innocence. Mu Qiyue was very angry.
Mu Qiyue thought about it for a while, and he felt that not only should Zhao Yu's conspiracy fail, but they should also suffer the consequences themselves, otherwise the feeling in his heart would never come out.
Of course, Lin Zhu must be on guard. At first, in order to avoid suspicion, Mu Qiyue did not want to have too much contact with Lin Zhu. But the current situation could not help him. So, he asked the boy next to him to
He tried to find a way to notify Lin Zhu and ask her to be careful. He followed Zhao Yu carefully, preparing to ruin their plan.
After Lin Zhu's chance encounter with Zhao Yu just now, she didn't want to have anything to do with this person. Therefore, even if other people gave her a lot of looks, she followed Lin Qinglan firmly, never leaving. (
