"Mother!" Lin Yun jumped in, unable to hide the smile on her face.
"What are you doing like a monkey!" Mrs. Lin turned her head and gave her a look.
On her birthday today, she wore a crimson coat and skirt, with a white fox fur cloak on the outside. Her belly was swollen, and her whole person exuded a loving aura.
Lin Yun didn't answer, she stuck out her tongue and smiled, lying on her lap and coquettishly, "Mom is so beautiful!"
"I don't know who I learned to be so smooth-tongued from!" Mrs. Lin nodded her forehead with fondness in her eyes.
"Okay, the guests are here, help me out."
"Um."
On Mrs. Lin's birthday, all the prominent ladies and ladies in town came to congratulate her. The servants of the Lin Mansion were busy walking among the crowd.
"Mrs. Lin..." Seeing her coming out, all the ladies in the hall stood up and saluted.
"Everyone, please take a seat, no need to greet me."
"Hey," everyone is familiar with her temperament. Although she has a noble status, she is gentle and easy to get along with. After a few polite words, everyone sat down in turn.
The flower hall of the Lin Mansion was lit with charcoal, and the room was warm. Mrs. Lin let the maid take off her cloak, revealing her covered pregnant belly.
"The day when Madam will give birth is coming soon, right?"
"Well, spring will come next year." Mrs. Lin stroked her belly and smiled lovingly.
"My husband-in-law got a bottle of pregnancy-preserving pills made by the palace doctor. I won't need it when I'm old, so I'll give it to my wife."
The woman who spoke was the wife of the chief clerk, and her husband worked for Lin Yusheng. In order to please Mrs. Lin, it probably took a lot of effort to get this bottle of pregnancy pills.
Mrs. Lin took it with a smile, "Then I would like to thank Mrs. Liu."
"You're welcome, this is what we should do."
Mrs. Liu smiled flatteringly, and the other ladies secretly spat. This was just taking advantage of her and being obedient. A bunch of people let her get the limelight first.
Others did not hesitate to give in and presented gifts one after another, including jewelry, clothing and satin, medicinal materials and snacks. However, the Lin family did not lack these things. Mrs. Lin smiled and thanked her and asked the maids to collect the gifts.
"Mom, I've prepared a gift too!"
Lin Yun couldn't sit still for a long time. When everyone finished presenting the gifts, she couldn't help but jump out.
"Oh, what did Yun'er prepare for mother?"
Mrs. Lin guessed it was either a purse or a handkerchief, but she still pretended to be surprised and asked.
"You'll know after you see it!" Lin Yun winked playfully and let it slip.
"Go and get the things."
"Yes." The little maid next to her followed the instructions and went out. The mysteriousness of the two people aroused everyone's curiosity.
What other rare items has the young lady of the county magistrate’s family prepared?
The little maid came back soon, holding a big box in her hand and carefully handed it to Lin Yun.
"Mom, the gift I want to give you is this." As she said that, she opened the lid and revealed an exquisitely shaped snack.
"ah!"
“Nice dim sum…”
I saw a few roses decorated with cream on the cake, and yellow peaches piled on one side. The plump pulp and white cream complement each other, and it looks delicious.
"Mom, I wish you a happy birthday. This is a cake specially prepared by my daughter for you. I hope your mother will always be beautiful and have a long life!"
"Okay, Yun'er is interested!"
Mrs. Lin's eyes were red, and she rubbed the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief. Lin Yun was sensible and well-behaved, she thought.
The relationship between mother and daughter made everyone envious, "Mrs. Lin is so lucky. The young lady is considerate and sensible, which is really enviable."
"Yes, if my Pihou has a little lady who is even remotely considerate, his father and I will be thankful!"
Everyone praised Lin Yun for her beauty. She felt shy and her face turned red. Mrs. Lin smiled and patted her hand.
"Don't praise her anymore, lest she become proud."
"mother……"
Lin Yun stomped her feet cutely and covered half of her face with a handkerchief, not wanting to be teased by everyone anymore.
"Okay, okay, let's share this cake with everyone and see if such a beautiful snack is delicious?"
"Um."
An eight-inch square cake was not enough for everyone, so Lin Yun shared the cupcakes prepared by Jiang Miao with everyone.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please try and see if it suits your taste."
Most of the people here have never bought Jiang Ji’s snacks, so it was their first time to eat butter and bread, and they were instantly attracted by this novel taste.
"It smells so good, so sweet..."
"What is this made of? It smells like milk and melts in your mouth when you eat it."
"This is called cream. It's made of milk. It's a new snack launched by Jiang Ji's shop." Lin Yun looked at everyone's reaction and knew that Jiang Miao was right. The cake was very popular with everyone.
"Jiang Ji? That newly opened dim sum shop?"
Although they have never eaten it, they have all heard of Jiang Ji's name.
"Yes, Mrs. Jiang is good at craftsmanship. She makes various kinds of snacks and they are delicious. Both mother and father like her very much."
"Oh?" After hearing that even the county magistrate liked it, several ladies were interested. Is Jiang Ji's snack really so delicious?
"Then I will try it another day!"
Jiang Miao didn't know that her goal had been achieved. Through the promotion of Mrs. Lin's birthday party, a group of big customers were directly sent to her.
At this moment, she was driving away the man at the door with a stick. Zhou Shui'an stayed near Shen's house for a few days. Finally, when Shen Yingxue went out, he followed him to Jiang Ji's shop. Looking at Shen Yingxue's brows, gentle and generous, he felt regret in his heart.
Submerge him.
"Yingxue, I know I was wrong. That bitch lied to me and deliberately alienated our relationship. I divorced her immediately. Can you forgive me this time and come home with me?"
Zhou Shui'an blocked the door and looked like he was stalking him. His hair was messy and his face was ashen. His previous handsome appearance was greatly reduced. Shen Yingxue didn't want to look at her and hid in the shop. Jiang Miao had long been disgusted with the scumbag.
Just pick up a stick and hit him.
"Go, go, you scumbag, you regret it now. Why did you go there earlier? You really thought that my sister would forgive you if you said a few soft words. Bah, just dream!"
She hit her hard with all her strength. Zhou Shui'an was in pain and couldn't avoid it, but he didn't want to leave like this. Who knows when Shen Yingxue will come out next time.
"Madam, Yingxue, please forgive me. I was really wrong. I shouldn't have listened to Zhao Yuan's lies. I knew you would be sad but still took her as a concubine. I hurt you and Ling'er. I know now
Wrong, please believe me again..."
Shen Yingxue was not moved at all by his apology. Her eyes were cold and she looked at him like a stranger.
"Zhou Shui'an, our relationship ended the moment you gave up saving Ling'er. You can hurt me, but you can even give up on your daughter. How can I trust you and forgive you?"
"I... this was all instigated by Zhao Yuan. How could I not save Ling'er? She was instigating all this behind my back..."
"Hey, you can say this, Zhou Shui'an, you are so shameless. I didn't expect that the man I, Shen Yingxue, have always admired would be such an irresponsible coward. I was really blind before. You go away, I will never forgive you in this life.
