Chapter 54
Chen Linan thought he was keeping a low profile, but what was happening in his yard could not be hidden from his mother.
Chen Linan's mother got the news when he sent people to Linshui. Now Chen Linan is heartbroken every day, how could Chen's mother not guess why?
But if this happened to someone else, Chen's mother would definitely sneer at it, thinking that this man was really cheap and wanted everything. But when this person turned out to be her beloved son Chen Linan, it was a different story.
Mother Chen first smashed a set of her favorite teacups, and then cursed Cui for being a vixen who flirted with her son even though she was divorced.
After scolding Lin Ying enough, Cui started scolding Lin Ying again: "Where has her original cleverness gone? Didn't she hook Lin An's heart and set his heart on her before? How long has it been since she lost her temper?"
Not to mention the maids around her, even Nanny Lin who had been serving her did not dare to retort. After all, Lin Ying was also a lady of the Lin family and the mistress's niece.
As the elder and the aunt of the young lady, the lady said something unpleasant, but it was said. But if the servants said something inappropriate, they would have had enough of life.
Nanny Lin carefully replied, "The young lady is still young, and needs your guidance."
She handed over the tea of perfect temperature. Mother Chen drank the hot tea from Nanny Lin's hand, and her anger subsided a little.
"Hmph, my advice wasn't enough. If I hadn't indulged her, would she have been able to drive Cui away? Would she have become the young lady of the Chen family now?"
Nanny Lin stopped talking. She couldn't persuade the Madam when Cui was around. She thought that the family would be peaceful if Miss Ying became the young Madam. But now, in the Madam's heart, the young master is a fairy king in heaven, and she is afraid that no one is worthy of him except the princess of the royal family.
"Forget it, they are just a bunch of troublemakers. Go tell Lin Ying to coax Lin An more and give me a big fat grandson as soon as possible."
Nanny Lin smiled and replied, "Well, I'll go there in a moment. Our young master is so handsome and his future children will surely be like fairy children."
Those who have served for many years know what words their masters like to hear.
In the evening, the drunk Chen Linan was supported by several servants and sent back to Lin Ying's yard.
Nanny Lin watched as the maids supported Chen Lin'an to wash up, and called out to Lin Ying, who wanted to follow them, "Young Madam, please stay. This old servant has something to say to you."
Lin Ying was somewhat reluctant. If she didn't go in and watch over her cousin who was so drunk, what if the maids started to have inappropriate thoughts and did something wrong?
But she didn't dare to offend Nanny Lin: "Nanny, please feel free to speak up."
As an elder from the Lin family, Nanny Lin naturally has deep feelings for the host family where she grew up. All she says is for the good of the Lin family.
"Miss Ying, I have watched you grow up, and today I will flatter you and say a few words from the bottom of my heart.
You are different now than you were before. In the Chen family, you are no longer a guest of Madam's family, but the young lady of this family. Being a daughter-in-law is not the same as being a niece. If you want to live a comfortable life in this big house, you have to stand on your own feet.
In the past, Mrs. Cui was not liked by the Madam and the Young Master. You have seen what kind of life she lived in this house. At that time, the Madam and the Young Master protected you and allowed you to make trouble for Mrs. Cui.
No matter what their purpose is, everyone in the mansion is naturally happy to see our eldest wife making trouble.
But now that Cui is no longer in this mansion, you know who the others are waiting to see. In any case, you shouldn't just think about quarreling with the young master. The most important thing is to hurry up and have a child."
Lin Ying pressed her thin red lips into a line. She was a little dissatisfied. She couldn't say it to her aunt, but could she still endure it to this servant?
"Is it because I don't want to give birth? My cousin doesn't come to my room more than once a month. How can I give birth by myself?"
As soon as she said this, Nanny Lin felt a black screen before her eyes.
She seemed like a smart girl before, why does she look so stupid now?
There were so many important points in what she said, but why did she only hear about giving birth?
Yes, having children is important, but Lin Ying had only been married for less than six months, so having a child wasn't that urgent. She clearly meant to remind Lin Ying not to act like the Madam's niece anymore. She should treat the Madam as her mother-in-law and the Young Master as her husband.
Don't call her aunt or cousin all the time, trying to show off that everyone knows how she got married into this family.
But it was obvious that this person's focus was completely off. Nanny Lin secretly tried her luck and decided to let things take their course.
After Nanny Lin left, Chen Linan was tidied up and properly placed on the bed. Lin Ying dismissed the servants and also lay down on the bed.
She tentatively touched the person next to her, who instantly grunted and turned his back to her.
Let’s not talk about the tears that Lin Ying shed in the middle of the night while silently biting the corner of the quilt.
Cui Qingyi was tired from crying the night before, so she naturally woke up late the next day.
Perhaps it was because she cried so hard while drunk that Cui Qingyi felt refreshed when she woke up. The depression that had been weighing on her chest for more than ten years seemed to have completely dissipated.
She seemed different from others. When she came to this strange dynasty and turned into a baby, the first thing that occupied her heart was endless panic.
After finally figuring out from the gossip of people around her what kind of dynasty this was and what kind of family she was born into, she still didn't feel at ease in her heart.
She was not a truly ignorant child, so she could naturally see the resentment and unwillingness in Yuan's eyes. The unfamiliar feudal dynasty and her mother who did not like her were a real disaster for Cui Qingyi.
The time-travel novels she had read in the past could not provide her with much survival experience. Cui Qingyi only sadly realized that she was an alien in this era, and a very weak alien at that.
Fearing that she would be treated as a nuisance by the Yuan family, Cui Qingyi began to learn how to be a qualified ancient person since she was a baby. She persisted under such tremendous pressure for a full twenty years, and now she can finally open her mouth and breathe freely.
She let her thoughts run wild, but it only lasted for a short moment before Cui Qingyi forced herself back to reality.
No matter what happened in the past, people living in this world should try their best to live every day well.
As the New Year was approaching, Konjac assigned Xiaoyuan some homework and gave her a holiday, and classes would resume after the New Year.
In the last class, Fan not only sent a tuition for Konjac, but also New Year gifts for the Cui family.
Although Shu Xiu only had five taels of silver, Konjac was so curious about the silver in his hand that he showed it to Cui Qingyi after he had admired it enough: "Miss, this is like a dream. I actually got Shu Xiu too."
(If you could really travel through time, would you panic or be excited first when you arrived in a strange dynasty?)
