Chapter 91 Where did this country bumpkin come from?
Tuomo Villa is a property under the name of Renyitang.
It is where the wealthy families in the capital gather.
Because the gambling and medicine festival was about to be held here, many mobile vendors came to the street outside Tuomo Villa. There were also some children carrying small baskets and selling snacks and fruits along the street. It was quite lively.
There is a wide flat area outside the villa, which is now full of carriages.
The drivers did not enter the villa, but while guarding the carriages, they could visit the stalls and buy some things. Some of them would gather together to chat and brag, making a lot of noise.
There was a long table outside the gate of Tuomo Villa, and a young man in a green brocade robe was collecting entry cards.
It is said that as long as you pay them a certain amount of silver, you can go in and sell some snacks.
Fu Zhaoning brought Xiaotao with her today. She didn't know what would happen here, but Xiaotao could be useful in case someone needed to run errands or something.
However, Zhong Jian was worried and came along as well.
One entry sign was enough to bring two servants in, so they were just the two of them.
When Fu Zhaoning handed the sign to the young man at the door, he looked at Fu Zhaoning several times, but didn't say anything. He just waved his hand and let her in.
As soon as she entered the gate, Fu Zhaoning discovered that Tuomo Villa was much larger than she had imagined. It was a very grand garden, with one garden within another, one courtyard connected to another, winding paths leading to secluded places, and beautiful scenery.
"It seems that Renyitang is very rich, owning such a courtyard." Fu Zhaoning sighed. She had to admit that she was a little envious.
She is very poor now.
Xiao Tao was also a little overwhelmed, "Miss, do we have time to walk around? This garden is so beautiful."
"Where did this country bumpkin come from? How could he think such a yard was an eye-opener?"
A mocking voice came from behind the flowers nearby.
Xiao Tao's face flushed red. She looked at Fu Zhaoning nervously, feeling that she had brought shame to the young lady.
With a click, a package of something was thrown out and landed at Xiaotao's feet.
Several people walked out from behind the flowers, led by a woman dressed gorgeously and covered in jewels.
The woman looked to be about twenty-four or twenty-five years old. She was quite pretty, but her eyes were arrogant. She looked at people with a sizing and mocking expression, and seemed difficult to approach.
Zhong Jian's face changed slightly when he saw this woman. He took a step forward and said to Fu Zhaoning in a low voice, "This is the eldest lady of the Song family, and the niece of the eldest princess, Sun Lanyin."
Song family?
Fu Zhaoning only knew one Song family.
On the day she and Xiao Lanyuan got married, she rushed to Prince Jun's mansion and said that she did not agree with her marrying Prince Jun's daughter, Song Yuanlin.
As if he was afraid that she still didn't know who the Song family was, Zhong Jian added in a low voice, "Song Yunyao's sister-in-law."
Speaking of Song Yunyao, the princess should know who he is, right?
At that time, Song Yuanlin said that he would look after Prince Jun for her sister Yun Yao. How could Fu Zhaoning not remember it?
"This is the dried fruit I just asked someone to buy. The vendor ripped me off, and the shells are hard to peel," Sun Lanyin looked at Fu Zhaoning, then at Xiao Tao, "Please help me peel these fruits, and I'll let you guys come in and have a good look around Tuomo Villa next time, how about that?"
Xiao Tao was a little angry. Seeing that Fu Zhaoning didn't say anything, she mustered up the courage to retort, "Don't you have your maid with you? Just let them peel it!"
“Bold!”
Sun Lanyin immediately became angry and pointed at Xiao Tao, "Who are you? How dare you say you, you, you, you when you talk to me? Do you know who I am?"
Xiao Tao had never experienced any big scenes, and was frightened by her sudden shouting.
"We really don't know who you are. Are you a princess or a county lady? Or a princess or the wife of a high-ranking official?" Fu Zhaoning asked back indifferently.
These words seemed to hit Sun Lanyin's heart.
Although she married into the Song family, which had two princesses, Princess Yunyao and Princess Yuanlin, and she was also the niece of the Grand Princess, she herself had no status.
Although she is not a princess, a county lady, or a royal consort, Young Master Song is still studying hard in the academy in order to take part in the imperial examination next year.
"This is the eldest young lady of the Song family. The eldest princess is our young lady's aunt, and her status is much more noble than yours!"
Sun Lanyin's face changed, and the maid beside her immediately revealed her identity.
"The Grand Princess is her aunt, so her mother is also a princess?"
Fu Zhaoning asked Zhong Jian this question.
She really thought it was a bit strange. Why did they have to introduce her like that? Wouldn't it be fine to just say that she was the daughter of a princess?
Zhong Jian coughed.
If he didn't know that Fu Zhaoning really didn't know Sun Lanyin, he would have thought she did it on purpose.
Deliberately stepping on Sun Lanyin's heart.
"Her mother voluntarily gave up her princess status in order to marry into the Sun family. The emperor was angry at the time and agreed."
"So, she can only show off the Grand Princess and dares not mention her own mother?" Fu Zhaoning suddenly realized.
Sun Lanyin was furious.
She always thought her mother was kicked in the head by a donkey. Why didn't she even become a princess? Otherwise, she could also say that she was the princess's daughter, and she wouldn't have to be so awkward like now.
"You and your slave are not allowed to discuss my mother? Come, slap them in the face!"
Sun Lanyin hated it most when people talked about her mother. Now that she saw a guard dared to talk about it in front of her, she was so angry that her face turned green.
"yes!"
Her two maids immediately rushed over with their sleeves rolled up, one rushed to Fu Zhaoning and the other rushed to Zhong Jian, raising their hands to slap them each in the face.
"Like master, like servant."
Fu Zhaoning took a step back, and Zhong Jian stepped forward to block her, then waved his hand and threw both maids out.
The two maids fell to the ground and hit each other's heads.
Sun Lanyin was so angry that her eyes were blazing with fire.
"Well, you are so brave that you dare to fight back?"
"What you said is really strange. If we don't fight back, are we going to stand there and get beaten? Do you think we are such idiots?" Fu Zhaoning sneered.
"Sister-in-law!"
Another group of people hurried over in front, and the one running in front was Song Yuanlin.
Following Song Yuanlin were a group of young men and girls of similar age.
Song Yuanlin's face changed when he saw Fu Zhaoning.
"It's you?!"
None of the people she had sent to Luoyue Mountain to hurt Fu Zhaoning came back.
Song Yuanlin had been very upset these days but couldn't find a chance to vent her anger. When she saw Fu Zhaoning, she immediately felt that the opportunity had come.
"Yuan Lin, do you know this bitch?" Sun Yuanyin asked angrily.
"Watch your mouth." Zhong Jian's face turned cold.
