However, the servants in the other manor did not quite understand and looked at Gu Yu suspiciously. After a moment, they seemed to suddenly realize and asked, "Your Highness, are you asking about Madam Chen's family?"
Madam Chen? Gu Yu looked at the servant, confused after a moment, "What Madam Chen? I'm asking you about the girl who talked to this prince yesterday?" The girl was very beautiful and now lived in the other courtyard. Gu Yu had already preconceived that she was the new guest of Prince Jing.
"Yes," the servant said, "the girl yesterday was Mrs. Chen's eldest daughter, Miss Chen Ruoye."
Eldest daughter? Gu Yu was even more confused. "What Madam Chen?"
"Not long ago, the prince brought back the widow of Lord Chen Bihuaifang. She fell ill as soon as she came back." The servant looked towards the backyard, "She has been lying there until now. Speaking of Madam Chen, she is really pitiful. She lost her husband at such a young age, and she passed a long time walking on the road. If she hadn't met the prince and missed her colleagues, she might have had to sleep on the street at night."
Chen Bihuai's widow. Gu Yu was able to remember this person, and it seemed that she had indeed died while in office.
"Okay, got it, go to work."
After waving his hand to let the servant go, Gu Yu still felt a little strange. He couldn't explain the feeling, so he walked around the yard casually for a while.
——
Chen Zihan had been ill before, and Lin was afraid that she would pass on her illness to herself and affect her complexion, so she kept her in the room and had someone take care of her.
There weren't many other things in the villa, but there were many good things. In a few days, her face became rounder. She was a lively and active girl. When Lin woke up early in the morning, she saw her tossing and turning. Knowing that she couldn't be contained, she asked Muxue to take her out for a walk.
Chen Ruoye has been out these days, and the servants in the villa are familiar with the eldest daughter of the other family. In addition, she is sweet-mouthed and sensible, so most people are friendly. Chen Zihan is young, they are from the same mother, and she looks cute and lovely, with a delicate figure. When she came out, many servants stared at her.
"Yes, she is my second daughter." The farm was not small. Chen Zihan went out to play the day before, and Mu Xue was afraid that she would get lost, so she followed closely. On the way, she met servants who asked about her, and she also smiled and agreed.
"I was sick some time ago, so I have been recuperating in the house."
Chen Zihan puffed up her face and didn't have time to listen to Mu Xue and the servants chatting. She walked forward, but Mu Xue was stopped by the servants and couldn't catch up with her. "Playing in the garden in front?" She hurried to follow them, but was stopped by an old maid. "Don't worry, you just watch here."
Muxue saw that it was indeed not far away, so she felt relieved.
On the other side, Gu Yu had received a letter from her own mother, saying that she had misunderstood. The woman in the mansion was the widow of the former Dali Temple Shaoqing Chen Bihuaifang. Now Prince Jing had received an order from his superiors to take good care of her and not to act impulsively and make his father angry for nothing.
It looked like a misunderstanding. Gu Yu was about to accept the letter when his eyes suddenly lit up. He saw a little girl in pink clothes hiding in the garden, playing with something in her hands. Gu Yu saw that her mouth was puffed up, like a little frog. She was pretty and adorable, so he couldn't help but want to tease her.
"Where did this kid come from? What are you doing in my house?"
Chen Zihan was having fun by himself. He looked up and glanced at him, but saw that he was a stranger and ignored him.
She continued to use the shovel and had already shoveled a lot of flowers. Some of them were made into wreaths. Others were broken into pieces by her ruthless hands. On the one hand, she thought the child was interesting, and on the other hand, she felt sorry for the rare flowers in her home. Gu Yu said, "Do you know how much these flowers cost? Even if I sell you whole, I can't afford the compensation."
Chen Zihan had long felt annoyed by the person in front of him, so he said, "Who are you? I can do whatever I want with our flowers, it's none of your business!"
"Hey, what do you mean by your family's flower?" Gu Yu laughed back, "Who are you? When did this villa become your home? How come this prince has never seen you before?"
Chen Zihan has inherited the true teachings of the Lin family since she was a child. The good ones are hers, and the ones in front of her are hers. "My mother is the future mistress of the palace. My mother said that if I listen to her in the future, I will be the little princess of the palace, and anyone who sees me must kowtow to me." She looked at Gu Yu again, "I have told you who I am, why don't you tell me who you are?"
Gu Yu frowned immediately. If he didn't know who the person in front of him was, he would be a fool.
"Who am I? You want to be a princess, but you don't even know who I am?" He looked at Chen Zihan coldly, "You are dreaming."
"You are just wishful thinking. My mother will marry the prince soon, and I will be the princess!"
"A country girl wants to be a princess, dream on!" Gu Yu's gentlemanly demeanor was gone, "Take your mother and get out of the villa as soon as possible, don't make me angry, otherwise you won't have a chance!"
This little thing of the country girl really pissed off Chen Zihan. She was used to being unruly, and seeing that Gu Yu was taller than her, she bit the back of his hand while he wasn't paying attention.
"You little bitch! Let go!"
Chen Zihan was young and had weak teeth, but it hurt when he bit hard. Gu Yu couldn't shake him off. For a while, the two of them were so violent that many servants saw it and tried to persuade them, but Chen Zihan refused to stop and Gu Yu didn't say what happened between the two.
He was being bitten, sweat broke out on his head and he was calling the person a stinky girl.
Both of them were masters, and the servants dared not touch either of them. They immediately sent someone to report to Prince Jing, and also sent someone to tell Madam Chen who lived in the mansion.
——
The servants were in a hurry.
Chen Ruoye asked a servant about the situation and hurried over there. Lin had already gone there, and she was dressed very gorgeously. Gu Yu was a half-grown boy after all, and he was a little nervous when he saw such a beauty for the first time, but after seeing her, he knew why the stinky girl kept saying that her mother wanted to marry into his family.
A beautiful woman like this never stays at home.
"You are Lin!" Gu Yu finally shook off Chen Zihan, looked up and questioned Lin who was standing beside him.
Lin had already learned from the servants that this man was the prince of the palace. She secretly blamed Chen Zihan for causing trouble for her, but she had to look back at Gu Yu's words, "It's my fault that I'm not sensible. I hope the prince won't blame me."
Gu Yu laughed in anger, "How dare I blame you, my future mother!"
Then he looked at Chen Zihan, "Right, Princess!"
When Chen Ruoye came, she saw Gu Yu looking at her mother and sister like a fighting cock, and after listening to what he said, it was not difficult to guess what happened. She knew that Chen Zihan was young and had always followed Lin to learn. She glanced at Lin and poked her with her hand.
Lin pulled her own sleeve. How could she know that her little daughter would remember what she said casually?
Sure enough, Chen Zihan refused to admit defeat after hearing what Gu Yu said, "It's good that you know!"
Gu Yu's eyes widened. He didn't expect that she would dare to talk back.
Chen Ruoye hurriedly went up and blocked Chen Zihan behind her, "If you keep talking, you won't have any snacks to eat!" She glared at Lin and explained to Gu Yu, "My lord, my sister is young. If she did anything wrong, I will apologize to you on her behalf."
"Apologize?" Gu Yu pointed at the teeth mark on her hand that Chen Zihan had bitten. "She bit me so big, can an apology solve this problem? Miss Fang, do you think you are the princess too?"
Chen Ruoye had no way to defend himself, and at this moment a group of people came out from outside in a hurry, led by Prince Jing.
He learned from the servants that his son and his future beloved had quarreled. He knew Gu Yu's temper and was afraid that Lin would suffer a loss, so he hurried over and asked, "Yu'er, what are you doing?"
Chen Ruoye and Lin were shocked...this was not the Prince Jing they had met that day.
But in Prince Jing's mansion, they were taken care of like this. Who on earth did they meet that day? Gu Yu pointed at the mother and daughter and was about to speak, but Chen Ruoye had already reacted and spoke first, "Your Highness, it's just that my sister said something wrong, which made the prince angry. It's really not a big deal." He poked Chen Zihan again. Fortunately, he was not completely stupid. Seeing that the situation was not right, he immediately started crying.
Gu Yu glared at Chen Ruoye, "What do you mean it's not a big deal? You're still crying, how dare you..." He was only halfway through his words when he was scolded by his father, "As a man, it's not right to barge into the backyard, and you even started a fight with a little girl. Do you think you have a lot of face?"
"Go back to the palace and be confined for three days."
"Dad!" Gu Yu was unwilling, but his arm was no match for his thigh. He glared at the mother and daughter, then left the courtyard. Prince Jing dealt with his son and asked Lin if she was okay. Lin just shook her head weakly. Prince Jing knew that she was the emperor's guest, so he didn't dare to be disrespectful.
"Hurry, help the lady back."
Lin wanted to ask something, but was blocked by Prince Jing. Seeing this, Chen Ruoye poked Lin and told her not to ask anymore. She had already figured out the identity of the man that day.
After returning home, Chen Ruoye told Lin about her guess.
Lin's body softened and she tilted downwards. "Your Majesty, it's Your Majesty... This..." Chen Ruoye thought her mother was afraid, but she became excited after a moment. "If this is the case, then can't I enter the palace and become a queen?"
Lin has always been proud of her beauty. Although her family background is ordinary, she thinks there is nothing wrong in entering the palace and becoming a queen with her beauty.
Chen Ruoye could only roll her eyes.
Things didn't go as smoothly as Lin had thought. A war broke out in the southeast, and the emperor was busy. Shen Qingqiu also had to go to the front to treat Gu Yong's army. Both sides had no time to deal with her. As time went by, although Prince Jing didn't dare to treat Lin badly, he didn't visit her often. When Lin was sick, he was afraid of being scolded by the emperor, so he pretended to find a doctor to visit Lin for a night. The next day, he heard that there was no serious problem, and he left quickly.
