What is the connection between Aunt Fang and Lin Kun?
And why had Sister Wen's face been so grim before? Was it because she hadn't left the Ren family of her own free will? Given Concubine Fang's personality, even if she was just a chess piece, she wouldn't abandon it before it had fully demonstrated its effectiveness. That wasn't Concubine Fang's style.
Ren Yaoqi felt that there must be something wrong, but it was still a thick fog. This feeling was really a bit uncomfortable.
Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win every battle. How can you figure this out? Walking in the garden, Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but think quickly.
The day passed quickly. On the morning of the second day, Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua were in Li's room listening to Nanny Zhou teaching them about housework. Suddenly, someone who was unexpected by Ren Yaoqi came to visit.
Ren Yaoqi was surprised when she heard the maid from the gate running over in a hurry, saying that the Princess of Yanbei Palace had arrived and specifically came to see her.
Seeing Li, Ren Yaohua, and Nanny Zhou all looking at her in confusion, Ren Yaoqi retracted her surprised expression and said with a smile, "Last time the princess wanted to come to Baihe Town to play, I thought she was just joking. I didn't expect her to really come today."
Li thought for a moment and said with a smile, "It seems this princess is a good match for you. A guest is a guest, so hurry up and get ready to meet her."
Xiao Jinglin's presence naturally alarmed everyone in the Ren family. The old lady was the first to react and hurriedly took the eldest wife out of Ronghuayuan to greet them.
The old lady's solemnity wasn't surprising. Although Xiao Jinglin was only a princess, given the Xiao family's status in Yanbei, she was practically the equivalent of a princess. The women of Yanbei all wanted to meet her, but unfortunately, Xiao Jinglin was away from home year-round and rarely attended the gatherings of the noble families. So, her initiative to come to the Ren family this time surprised the women, and they couldn't help but feel flattered.
So when Ren Yaoqi learned the news, Xiao Jinglin had already been respectfully invited to Ronghuayuan by the Ren family.
When Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua went over, they saw Xiao Jinglin with a calm expression sitting quietly at the top, and Old Lady Ren also sat at the bottom.
The eldest wife of the main house, the eldest young mistress, and the fourth sister Ren Yaoting all stood behind Old Madam Ren. Even the fifth wife, Lin, who was currently in a cold war with Ren Shimao and disliked everyone, came with Ren Yaoyu. She was the only one who spoke to Xiao Jinglin in a self-proclaimed familiarity. Although Xiao Jinglin simply nodded, it did not dampen the fifth wife's enthusiasm.
Seeing Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua coming in, the Fifth Madam said to Xiao Jinglin, "Princess, our Yaoqi is here."
Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua stepped forward to pay their respects to Xiao Jinglin. The old lady frowned and glanced behind them: "Where is your mother? Why doesn't she come to see the princess?" Old Lady Ren felt that it was really inappropriate that even she went out to greet Xiao Jinglin, but the third wife, Mrs. Li, didn't even show up.
Ren Yaoqi knew her mother. Although the Xian Palace was no longer in existence, she had no intention of kowtow to the daughter of a vassal prince. Li Shi was not deliberately being arrogant; her pride had been cultivated since childhood and was ingrained in her. So she wasn't deliberately not coming, but rather she hadn't realized she was coming.
Ren Yaoqi did not remind Li, because she knew that some things would touch a string in her mother's heart and make her sad.
