Splendid Abandoned Wife

Chapter 258 Testing (two updates in one)
Mrs. Lin couldn't calm down until she got on the carriage. She closed her eyes and leaned back, sighing softly. She was indeed wrong!
Lin Rong was quite happy at first. She felt that Yin Zhiruo was very interesting. Not only did she pack them a large bag of honey bean cakes, she also added half a bag of steamed cakes that were more suitable for storage and two cans of a new product called "jam", which she said could be spread on It can also be spread on steamed cakes, white rice cakes, steamed buns, and fried steamed bun slices to add a sweet and sour taste.

At this moment, she heard her mother sigh softly. Thinking that the purpose of their trip was in vain, and thinking of Yin Zhiruo's unforgiving words, her face instantly changed, and she snorted arrogantly: "Yin Zhiruo is so ungrateful, mother, you are making dad cold." Let them know, without her father's care, would her life have been so smooth? Would her business have been so easy? "

Mrs. Lin quickly opened her eyes, frowned and asked, "Why do you think so? No, who said these things to you?"

Lin Rong was frightened by her mother, and her voice was filled with grievances: "Isn't it true? Who doesn't know that Prince Jing and his father are guarding Meizhuang? If Prince Jing didn't value his father, why would he let the guilty minister take care of his children? Hum. , If it weren’t for dad, their Meizhuang would have been robbed and killed by bandits, how could they show off like this in front of us?”

"Shut up!" Mrs. Lin shouted in a low voice, "Who told you these words?" Although she had underestimated Yin Zhiruo before, she was not so confused that she thought that without the care of their prefect, Yin Zhiruo and her brother A few of them are struggling, and they don't think that Prince Jing's care for Meizhuang is for the sake of her husband, the prefect Lin.

"Lang...Sister Lang Xin said it." This was the first time Lin Rong had seen her mother so angry, but she felt that her cousin was right. She didn't know why her mother was so angry.Wasn't my mother so angry at Yin Zhiruo just now in Meizhuang?
"Ming Langxin?" Mrs. Lin frowned even more tightly. The eldest lady of the Ming family was her second sister, and Ming Langxin was her second sister's daughter.Five or six days ago, the second sister took her two sons and one daughter back to the ancestral home of the Ming family in Yuzhou to congratulate the old lady on her birthday. When passing through Luocheng, she stayed at their house for one night. It must have been at that time that Ming Langxin seduced Rong'er. Is this because Ronger is unwilling to steal her marriage?

She only found out afterwards that the Ming family had also intended to marry the Yu family, but the Yu family chose their Lin family.Of course, even if she had known about it before, she would not have evaded him. Not only did the Yu family have a rich background, but Yu Feihong was also one of the best candidates for a son-in-law.

Marriage should be a matter of mutual consent between the two families. It would be great if the promising marriage can be negotiated. It would not be surprising if it fails. Besides, the Lin family had no idea that the Ming family was also interested in marrying Yu Feihong. Speaking of which, it was the Yu family who passed the message to the Lin family first.

But now it seems that the Ming family and their niece Ming Lang are resenting Lin Rong.Ming Langxin is only two months older than Lin Rong, but she has been more thoughtful than Lin Rong since she was a child. However, Lin Rong really likes her cousin who is the same age as her. She wants to share any good things with her and tell her It’s not surprising that I agree with it [-]%.

Mrs. Lin sighed deeply. She had always known that Lin Rong could not play with Mingmingxin, but she felt that the two little sisters had no conflict of interest, and the Ming family was stronger than the Lin family, so she did not say anything to Lin Rong for fear of Lin Rong. Rong doesn't know how to cover up, let slip, or overact.

Unexpectedly, the two of them were in conflict over their marriage.Fortunately, Lin Rong was a quick talker today, and she still had time to teach her what to say. Otherwise, she really wouldn't want to think about it.

Zhiruo could clearly see the state of Mrs. Lin when she left, but she thought it was good. She hoped that Mrs. Lin could understand the mutually beneficial relationship between their two families, and maybe they could continue to communicate for a long time.

Human nature is inevitably selfish. At first, Magistrate Lin and Mrs. Lin really cared about their siblings and provided them with a lot of conveniences. Although they later became more impetuous, greedy, and calculating, they were still passable in general, and He didn't do anything sinister. Compared to the so-called blood relatives of the Yin family, they were simply too kind and affectionate.

Therefore, if you really don't want to become enemies with the Lin family one day, it's better to have one more friend than one more enemy, right?
Magistrate Lin and Mrs. Lin are both smart people. If you believe it, after Mrs. Lin figures it out today, no matter how sincere the relationship between the two families is, it will definitely become clearer and calmer.

Of course, if so, she wouldn't be afraid if she...misjudged Mrs. Lin.With Prince Jing's care, Tie Muyuan's concern, and now the relationship with Old Man Banshan, Magistrate Lin had to maintain a superficial friendship and did not dare to make things difficult for her, as it would not have much impact on their lives.

Unlike Mrs. Lin and her daughter who just made Zhiruo feel a little uncomfortable, it was the Songs and their daughters who were about to "meet again" that really made her disgusted, even disgusted, but she couldn't refuse them to come to her door, and she held her breath just thinking about it.

Zhiruo immediately informed Pan Shuling and Nanny Ling that the Song family and their daughter were coming to Meizhuang. A sneer flashed across Nanny Ling's eyes, but she was not surprised at all. It was obvious that she must have known about it for a long time. The Song family also came to Luo City.

Just be on guard, Zhiruo said with a smile: "Mother Ling, since Prince Pan entrusted Miss Pan to Meizhuang, I will be responsible for Miss Pan's safety. Therefore, even if you have your own protection measures, even if you come The person in question is Miss Pan’s biological aunt. We at Meizhuang will still have our own arrangements, so please understand.”

She could feel that Ben Yue's martial arts were good, and it would be bad if Luo Ying and Luo Shuang were caught following closely, causing misunderstanding.

Grandma Ling's face was calm: "Thank you Miss Yin, Miss Yin is at ease." There was no arrogance, no contempt, no self-righteousness in her words and gestures, and no excessive words or questions, but only sincere gratitude and trust.

Zhiruo nodded secretly, she was indeed the palace maid specially given by the queen to her precious niece. No wonder Pan Jiaming trusted her so much.

Pan Shuling was obviously surprised by the arrival of her eldest aunt and fourth sister. Her face showed surprise at first, and then depression. She curled her lips and said, "Sister Ruo, can you ask Mr. Chen to have an extra class tomorrow? You can learn anything." It was better than facing my aunt's weird smile and the fourth sister's scary eyes.There was no reason, she just knew that her eldest aunt and fourth sister disliked her, and she didn't like to be with them.

Zhiruo patted Xiao Shuling lovingly and held her hand: "No matter how long you have been in class, your aunt will always come to see you. Well, if Mr. Chen adds extra classes, it will be a big deal. If sister is not a very enthusiastic host, just don’t take the initiative to invite guests to dine at Meizhuang."

"Okay, okay," Pan Shuling was a little girl after all, her mood suddenly turned brighter, and she smiled cheerfully, "By the way, sister Ruo, my fourth sister likes to smash things when she's unhappy, so don't let her ride in the glass carriage. "She really liked the exquisite and bright glass carriage. She opened the curtain on the roof, lay in the car and watched the plum blossoms falling on the glass roof. It was so beautiful that she felt like a little fairy sleeping among the flowers.

Zhiruo couldn't help but raise his hand to scratch her little nose, and said dotingly: "Okay, while Ling'er is in Meizhuang, the glass carriage with pink curtains is for your exclusive use, and no one else will be allowed to sit. Pan Shuling smiled even brighter: "Sister Ruo, I will miss you and sister Xuan'er from now on. Can you come to Meizhuang to stay for a few days?"

It's a pity that the queen's aunt and grandmother are both in Beijing, otherwise she really wants to stay in Luo City with her second brother, so that she can study and play with sister Xuan'er every day.

Zhiruo smiled and said: "Of course, as long as you like it, you are always welcome." She really liked this child, as innocent and cute as Xuan'er.However, as long as they are not as unruly and rude as Pan Shumin, most people are not immune to pretty little lolita.

Smash something?Zhiruo frowned, she believed that Pan Shumin would be unhappy tomorrow, because... we met on a narrow road, haha, I hope Mrs. Pan doesn't have the same hobby as her daughter and also likes to smash things.

As Zhiruo expected, when she saw Zhixuan standing next to Pan Shuling and Bai Xue lying in front of the two little sisters, Pan Shumin blushed and pointed at Zhixuan, "You...you...", not knowing what it was. Nuji choked, still too surprised and shocked.

Pan Shuling was very unhappy: "Fourth sister, this is sister Xuan'er, the third girl of the Yin family." Fourth sister is so rude.

Pan Shumin raised her chin arrogantly, Miss Yin San?The person her mother wants her to befriend is actually this little bitch?Huh, as expected, people are divided into groups. I don’t know when these two charming little bitches met?

Mrs. Song was also shocked, and then quickly turned her gaze to Zhiruo, secretly saying, "Sure enough," the brother and sister's nemesis was indeed Miss Yin and Miss Yin, who were disguised as men.

So, when did Pan Jiaming meet the Yin sisters?Is it really a coincidence that the two sisters collided with their mother and daughter again and again that day, or was it a set up?But what about the purpose?Just to destroy her plan and damage Min'er's reputation?

It has to be said that Mrs. Pan, who has always been good at calculating people and enjoys it, uses the heart of a villain to judge a gentleman's belly, and she suddenly became a conspiracy theory. Her suspicion made her immediately put away her previous suspicions about Meizhuang and Yin Zhiruo. With a despised heart, he was secretly on guard, but he didn't notice, or in other words, he wasn't in the mood to pay attention to the look of help from his precious daughter. He also forgot his original intention of giving Yin Zhiruo a show of strength, and was preoccupied with thinking about how to test it out.

"Miss Yin looks really familiar," Mrs. Pan said with a forced smile, "If it weren't for the fact that Miss Yin and this mastiff are so easy to recognize, I haven't realized where I've seen them before. It turns out that Miss Yin and Ling My brother is very similar, almost exactly the same."

Zhiruo smiled very calmly: "Madam Pan, you are joking. The two brothers and sisters you met by chance that day were the little girl and Yaomei. For convenience, the little girl just dressed up as a man." There is no such rule. The law stipulates that women are not allowed to dress up as men. It is said that when the current emperor was still the prince, he often took the prince or concubine who was dressed as a man to go shopping.

Mrs. Pan choked and snorted secretly, but she was quite frank!But she is really shameless and has no sense of being a lady. No wonder the Qingyuan Houfu looks down on her! (The world is so strange. On weekdays, they are laughing at the Qingyuanhou Mansion for stealing a chicken but losing a lot of rice, losing his wife and losing troops, but once Yin Zhiruo is annoyed, it becomes "no wonder the Qingyuanhou Mansion doesn't like it" , Lin Rong is like this, and Mrs. Pan is like this too.)
"Oh? Really?" Mrs. Pan continued casually, "As I said, the British government has never had any good relations with the Yin family. Why did Erlang suddenly think of letting Ling'er live in Meizhuang? It turned out that at that time, Mrs. The girl and Erlang already know each other."

Zhiruo shook his head: "Mrs. Pan misunderstood. Zhiruo took Yaomei to visit the store that day. Fortunately, she happened to meet Pan Shizi downstairs, and Yaomei and Pan Shizi happened to give alms to a man who sold his body to bury his father. We are just girls and have no other interactions. Coincidentally, we have an uncle, the head of the Zhenyuan Escort Bureau, Mr. Tie, who also knows Pan Shizi. When Pan Shizi came to Luo City on business, he asked him to give us Meizhuang. I brought some things with me, and later Pan Shizi fell in love with my two younger brothers, and they had more contact with each other."

According to Zhiruo's character, he has no interest in explaining this to Mr. Song. It's just that people's words are terrible, and the ancient feudal system was the most harsh on women. What Ms. Song just said was ambiguous, and it really seemed like a private exchange. .It happened that Nanny Ling and Ben Yue were also there. She explained clearly, firstly to prevent any rumors from spreading into the palace in the future and causing the Queen's displeasure. Secondly, she also blocked the Song family's mouth to prevent her from taking the opportunity to spread rumors. Used to deal with Pan Jiaming, dragging her into the water in vain.

Don't tell me, if the truth is known, Mrs. Pan really has this plan. No matter whether Pan Jiaming and Yin Zhiruo have a private relationship or not, no matter when and how they hooked up, she will plan to put it to good use. He not only plotted against Pan Jiaming, but also avenged Min'er, killing two birds with one stone.The only one to blame is Yin Zhiruo's unlucky situation. Even if she didn't collude with Pan Jiaming and ruin Min'er's reputation, she deserved it if she and the sisters spoiled an otherwise perfect game that day and ruined Xiaolian's good move!

It's just that she didn't expect that Zhiruo would react so quickly and speak so eloquently, explaining what happened clearly in just a few words. With Granny Ling standing by as a witness, it would be really difficult for her to write anything about it in the future.

However, Mrs. Pan also put aside her previous doubts. There was no need for Yin Zhiruo to lie, what she said could be easily verified.

"Oh, you are such an honest kid!" Mrs. Pan laughed, "I just asked casually, it's nothing serious. Look at how serious you kid is. If Erlang knew about it, he would think I was checking his whereabouts. Well, he will definitely be unhappy. You don’t know, he is just a skinny monkey who is most afraid of being controlled, hahaha.”

Grandma Ling frowned almost invisible, Ben Yue's concentration was a little weak, so she could only deliberately look away and look at the field in the distance.

Zhiruo half-closed his eyes, just like most shy ladies, and did not answer Mrs. Pan's words. Does it make sense?
