As soon as the carriage from the princess's mansion stopped, the doorman hurried forward to greet them. Seeing that the person coming down was an unfamiliar woman holding a child, the doorman asked with a hint of doubt, "Excuse me, Madam?"
Yun Xiangye smiled faintly and said, "I am the wife of Prince Ning. I made an appointment with your young lady to come and see the paintings today."
The servant said hurriedly, "Please wait in the front hall for a moment, my lord. I will go and report to you."
Yun Xiangye took Nuonuo's hand and went to the front hall of the Lin family's reception room. There was a landscape painting hanging in the front hall, and next to it was a screen embroidered with flowers and birds. Yun Xiangye went forward and took a look. She found that the embroidery of flowers and birds on the screen was done with excellent craftsmanship.
"The Crown Princess."
Yun Xiangye heard a woman's voice, and when he turned around, he saw a lady dressed in noble and dignified clothes coming towards him.
Madam Lin smiled softly at Yun Xiangye and said, "I'm sorry that the Crown Prince's wife has come to greet you."
"Master's Wife." Yun Xiangye smiled and nodded. She touched Nuonuo's head and said, "Call me Grandma Lin."
Little Nuonuo said obediently, "Grandma Lin."
Mrs. Lin smiled and said, "This is Yan'er's daughter. She is so cute and well-behaved. She looks just like Yan'er when he was a child."
Yun Xiangye said, "Master's Wife, I came here today to look for Junior Sister Lin. I ran into Junior Sister Lin on the street yesterday. She said she had painted a picture of red plum blossoms in the snow and wanted my husband to give her some advice. But my husband is too busy to help me with the painting, so I'm here to give Junior Sister some pointers."
A trace of embarrassment flashed across Mrs. Lin's face. "This child, she has her brother and her father at home who can give her guidance on painting, yet she still bothers you and the prince."
Yun Xiangye chuckled and said, "It's not a big deal. I'm your junior sister. Please, Master's Wife, lead the way."
Mrs. Lin suppressed her anger towards her daughter and took Yun Xiangye to Lin Bolan's courtyard.
Yun Xiangye took Nuonuo's little hand and walked into Lin Boyan's courtyard, and saw that there was a peacock in Lin Boyan's yard.
Nuonuo was very curious to see the peacock, "Mother..."
Yun Xiangye held Nuonuo in her arms and said, "This is a peacock."
Lin Bolan had just heard the maid come to report, and she hurriedly dressed and came out to see Madam Lin glaring at her in the yard. Lin Bolan hurriedly bowed her head and said, "Mother, the Crown Prince's Consort."
Yun Xiangye smiled and said, "Junior sister, there's no need to be so polite. Just call me aunt."
Xiao Nuonuo looked at Lin Bolan and called her "Auntie".
Lin Bolan looked at the little Nuonuo in Yun Xiangye's arms. She smiled at her and said, "So good."
Yun Xiangye said, "Junior sister, you actually have peacocks in your yard."
Lin Bolan said, "This peacock was given to me by my senior brother. When my senior brother was young, Prince Ning was fighting in Nancheng. When he returned to Chang'an from Nancheng, he brought back two peacocks for my senior brother. After the two peacocks gave birth to puppies, my senior brother gave one to me."
Madam Lin glared at Lin Bolan unhappily and said to Yun Xiangye, "Prince's Consort, it's cold outside. Please go inside."
Lin Bolan trembled when she saw her mother's angry look.
