But what is she trying to do in front of Mrs. Lin so uncharacteristically?

Lin Qingran watched Aunt Hua's slender back disappear into the corridor, and frowned involuntarily, as if a bad feeling crept into her heart.

She shook her head, maybe she was overthinking...

Although she comforted herself in this way, Lin Qingran had her heart set on her and made Zhiqin solicit news in Mrs. Lin's yard. Zhiqin was originally a big girl who went out of Mrs. Lin's yard. Quickly find out clearly what happened in Mrs. Lin's yard these past few days.

There are no details, including the fact that Aunt Hua has come to the old lady for the past few days to compete with Aunt Luo for favor and to win the favor of old lady Lin.

After Zhiqin finished speaking, she frowned slightly: "Miss, looking at Aunt Hua's appearance, she is planning to win over the old lady."

Then she pursed her lips and chuckled: "Aunt Luo is having a hard time these days, she has offended the Prime Minister, and now there is such a strong opponent in front of the old lady vying for favor in front of the old lady, I'm afraid I have to sleep with one eye open."

Lin Qingran smiled slightly, shook her head, as if she didn't agree with his point of view, and said: "Aunt Hua is a smart person, she has fought with the old lady for so many years, and there are many knots between each other, it's not because she kept her head down for a while. It can be resolved at a young age, and Aunt Luo is the niece of the old lady's natal family. She can't compare to this alone. She won't understand such a simple truth. Now that Concubine Hua is pregnant, she is quite favored in the palace. Nong, do you think that Aunt Hua needs to be humble in front of the old lady at this time?"

Lin Qingran's eyes narrowed slightly: "Concubine Hua is favored, the Hua family has accumulated military achievements, and her status has risen suddenly. Do you think Aunt Hua can still be a concubine with peace of mind? Think about it, I have been preventing you for so many years. Who is the person who helped Aunt Hua correct her?"

Zhiqin was taken aback for a moment, and then said: "Miss, you mean that Aunt Hua wants to..." Her face turned pale, and her expression changed drastically: "No way? The old lady is the biological mother of the prime minister, how dare Aunt Hua ..."

"Humans make money and birds die for food, why wouldn't Aunt Hua dare?" After a pause, she shook her head and said, "But Aunt Hua has always had a good appetite, and I'm afraid an old lady can't satisfy her appetite. Of course, it would be the best if you can drag all the thorns into the water. Well, if you can’t drag all the thorns into the water, I’m afraid you will also drag the biggest thorn into the water.”

When Lin Qingran said this, her voice paused, the sun shone through the window lattice engraved with rich and noble begonias, and the delicate shadows of tangled branches cast on her pretty little face, as if covered with a dark veil, she said with a half-smile : "Tell me, who is the person Aunt Hua hates the most in this mansion?"

Zhiqin was startled: "Miss is saying that Aunt Hua wants to deal with you..."

Lin Qingran stretched out her hand and flicked the non-existent dust on her sleeves, and smiled secretly: "I'm afraid I'm not the only one!"

As she spoke like this, she picked up the teacup and took a sip unhurriedly. She rubbed the rim of the teacup with her fingers. After a long time, she came out: "Zhiqin, you said she is so enthusiastic, what kind of 'gift' should I give her?"

Zhiqin knew that although Lin Qingran asked her in a rhetorical tone, she already had an idea in her mind, so she asked this question just for fun, so she smiled and said, "Aunt Hua has always been greedy for money, so naturally the bigger the gift, the better." ah!"
