While Su was struggling and hesitating, the housekeeper came over and said that Dali Temple Minister Lin Cenyi was worried about his daughter's illness, so he found a parrot and sent it to the lady.
Su's eyelids drooped. "Then let Lord Lin put the parrot down and go back. It is always inconvenient for a married girl to see her father."
The housekeeper reminded that Lord Lin was accompanied by Eunuch Dehai, who was also with the emperor, and was waiting in the front hall.
Only then did Su give in and let Danruo go to see Lin's father. After the meeting, she asked the servants to send Danruo back to her own yard to recuperate.
Lin Shushu lowered her eyes to hide her feelings. Her father was always so partial and never saw her in his eyes.
His elder sister was just sick, but he went to great lengths to come see her, completely forgetting all manner of etiquette.
In this era, no married woman would have her parents visit her home to take care of her except for major events such as pregnancy and childbirth.
Lin Cenyi felt bad when he saw that his daughter looked indeed much weaker, but it was her own fault, so what could he do?
When Dan Ruo saw the worry in Lin Cenyi's eyes, she naturally called out "Daddy". This time, she would definitely protect the original owner's family.
Lin Cenyi's heart was slightly moved. He had so many questions to ask, but in the end, he only said: "Take good care of yourself and take good care of yourself."
Then he handed her the birdcage and turned to leave.
Danruo stared at Lin Cenyi's figure until she could no longer see him, then Yuchuan helped her back to her own yard.
Yuchuan excitedly hung the birdcage under the eaves so that Danruo could see it as soon as she opened the window.
Danruo took a closer look and found that the parrot was not big, it was a young bird, with a bright red head and upper body, gold in the middle, and emerald blue tail. It looked very beautiful overall.
"Master, Master~~~"
Yuchuan exclaimed with joy, "I will teach it to speak more words so that it can make its master happy every day."
Dan Ruo smiled happily. The half-month deadline was approaching, and she had not found any living creature around her to carry the soul of Emperor Yongzhao that had been temporarily driven out. Now she had finally found one.
The little parrot has a strong ability to imitate and brings a lot of joy to the master and servant.
Jin Chuan was obviously excluded and was forced to do the rough work of a maid.
I kept thinking that the girl must have discovered what I did, but I didn't dare to ask her. What if the girl didn't know and I exposed it myself?
That night, Jin Chuan discovered that all her small treasury was gone.
She wanted to cry but had no tears. That was what she had gotten from Lin Shushu over the years, but she didn't dare to tell Dan Ruo about it.
After all, it was not right for a maid like her to have so much money, but she still couldn't help it and secretly ran to Danruo's house to eavesdrop.
Danruo sensed Jinchuan's breath and deliberately began to amplify his voice.
"Yuchuan, this is a secret medicine that my mother spent a lot of money to find. It is said that it can help you get pregnant in one go, and it is guaranteed to be a boy.
I'm afraid it would be a waste to use my body, so I thought I'd give it to you. I'd raise you as my concubine and bring the child to me so I can record it as my legitimate son."
"Miss, Yuchuan doesn't want to serve you, my son-in-law. Yuchuan only wants to follow you for the rest of her life."
Then Danruo kept persuading Yuchuan, but Yuchuan refused to do so and even said that she would give it to Lin Shushu.
Dan Ruo obviously hesitated and said nothing.
Jin Chuan thought about how Danruo had behaved abnormally towards her and Lin Shushu after she got married. She thought that Danruo must have guessed something and was afraid that she would take action to deal with her soon. Lin Shushu could not protect her.
I immediately decided to find a new way to make a living.
She made a sound on purpose, and then she heard the door open. She fell to her knees in front of Danruo with a thud. The sound was painful to hear.
She also held back tears.
"Miss, Jin Chuan has been with you since childhood, but she has committed a serious crime, and now she has come to surrender herself to you.
That day, Lin Shushu said she wanted to go to the girl's study to learn how to paint, and gave me some silver. I was tempted and let her in. Later, I learned that the girl's lyrical poems were widely circulated outside. I was really scared and had some vague guesses, so I kept secretly paying attention to Lin Shushu.
Sure enough, Lin Shushu sneaked to find the master after the young lady fell into the water, and the master then entered the palace and had his subsequent marriage.
A few days ago, I saw Lin Shushu's eyes shining as she looked at the Prime Minister, and then I connected everything together.
Lin Shushu will definitely harm the girl in the future.
I am only thinking about making amends now. Yuchuan is unwilling to do so. I am willing to bear a child for you. I have been with you since childhood, and my whole family is in the Lin family. I will definitely be devoted to you."
Dan Ruo looked at her quietly, "Lin Shushu is prettier than you, and she's also more knowledgeable and interesting. Compared to the two of you, there's no way the Prime Minister would like you."
Jin Chuan thought it was a good opportunity and thought: "As long as this servant seizes the opportunity, I will expose the fact that Lin Shushu harmed the young lady and let everyone see the viciousness of this woman Lin Shushu."
Dan Ruo continued, "When I accidentally fell into the lake..."
Jin Chuan quickly responded: "It was Lin Shushu who pushed the girl. I saw it with my own eyes."
Dan Ruo was silent for a while and asked her to go down and wait for his notification.
-Ming'an Hall-
Lin Shushu suffered a lot in front of Su because Su took out all his anger towards Danruo on her.
But Lin Shushu has always been very kind and takes better care of her than Mu Peilan, her daughter.
On the one hand, Su was the mother of her sweetheart, and she felt sweet taking care of her.
I always feel like I am doing his wife's work, as if I am really his wife.
On the other hand, she noticed that Mu Peiyuan was dissatisfied with her appearance when they met last time, and Dan Ruo's attitude towards her was abnormal, so she planned to open up the Su family.
After all, Su was the widowed mother who had raised Mu Peiyuan with great difficulty. With Su's protection, Mu Peiyuan always had to consider Su's face.
Su recovered quickly under Lin Shushu's careful care, and Lin Shushu was really willing to lose face and be a filial son.
He hinted to Lin Shushu to dress herself up and go to the Prime Minister's study in the evening to deliver cakes.
Su had someone send the drugged tonic soup to the study in Danruo's name in advance.
Afraid that Mu Peiyuan would not drink the wine sent by Dan Ruo, Su sent Ji Yong to check on the situation.
If he hasn't drunk it, let him persuade his uncle to drink some soup before coming back.
