"Madam, the master's status is not as good as before. We'd better find a place to rest first, and then go to meet up with the master." The governess suggested.
After nearly three months of travel, they finally arrived in the city where Lin Anru was.
"Okay, let's find an inn first!"
Liu looked at her friends who looked exhausted, listless and haggard. It was indeed not a good thing.
Not to mention how distressed he would be if Lin Anru saw their current state. If outsiders noticed, they would be laughed at.
Lin Anru's promotion was so rapid that he was being watched with such rage that outsiders were eager to find something to laugh at him.
Liu understood all these, and her two years of training were not in vain.
Lin Anji had no objection and listened to Liu.
He asked someone for the best inn here and checked in.
After entering, they ate first, then had hot water brought and washed themselves thoroughly.
"I feel much more energetic after taking a hot bath." Liu said to the governess.
The nurse was not convinced. "That's your illusion. Rest quickly and be in top condition tomorrow."
Although, tomorrow, outsiders may only be able to see it when getting off the bus.
But in just this short period of time, people can learn a lot.
For poor people, face is not important; what is important is the actual food that goes into their stomachs.
Among dignitaries, face is more important than anything else.
If a family loses its face, especially if it is criticized by others, it may be the beginning of its decline.
The nanny was right, the spirit was just Liu's illusion.
By the time she reached the bed, she fell asleep in less than ten breaths.
After Liu Shi fell asleep, the nanny left. She asked the waiter to run an errand to Lin Anru, informing him of the time the group would arrive at the mansion the next day.
Then he found Lin Anji and asked him to guard the door for Liu as she was going out.
Liu slept until the next morning.
She went to bed in the evening yesterday and slept for a really long time.
The nanny had breakfast delivered, and Liu could eat it as soon as she finished washing up.
After dinner, the nanny began to dress up Liu.
"This is the rouge and powder I bought yesterday. You have to reimburse me for it!"
After looking at it for a moment, the nanny nodded with satisfaction.
Liu is beautiful in herself, and she becomes even more beautiful after dressing up.
"Report! You must report."
Liu looked at herself in the mirror and felt a little dazed.
Even though it wasn't the first time she saw herself with makeup on, she still felt it was unreal when she saw herself again.
The nanny smiled when she heard this: "Since Madam is so generous, I will be able to buy as much as I want in the future."
"Mammy, you'd better take it easy. My family doesn't have much money to buy you as much as you want." Liu became curious.
The nanny dressed her in new clothes that had been prepared long ago. They were not the short clothes she wore in the village, but formal skirts.
"These tasks should have been done by your maids. I, a maidservant, am exhausted today."
Although the nanny was complaining, her tone was actually quite normal.
Liu smiled and said nothing more.
She was very nervous at the moment, and felt a little uneasy thinking that she hadn't seen her husband for a long time.
After Liu finished dressing up, Lin Anji also cleaned the rented carriage and came back to change into a new set of clothes.
"Let's go!"
Seeing that the time was almost up, Liu stood up, straightened her chest, and walked towards the carriage.
Yesterday, the governess sent someone to bring a letter to Lin Anru.
Today, Lin Anru took a special leave to wait for Liu at home.
He did not hide his request for leave from his colleagues, so as soon as he announced the price, everyone knew that his wife was coming.
Everyone was in the mood to watch the fun, and almost all of them asked their servants to go and watch the village women.
They were already unhappy that Lin Anru, a farmer's son, could become an official. They felt that this lowered their status.
In the entire court, out of a hundred officials, ninety-nine are almost all from aristocratic families. Even if there is one who is not from aristocratic family, his family background will not be bad either.
This year there is an exception, Lin Anru.
He was a farmer's son, but he became an official, surpassing these carefully trained children of aristocratic families, and he was promoted faster than them. It would be strange if they could feel balanced.
Since they couldn't find any evidence against Lin Anru in the officialdom, they thought of starting with his family.
It’s a pity that Lin Anru didn’t bring his family with him when he took office, so they couldn’t find any evidence to use against his family.
Thinking that he had no women around him, those people wanted to get a few women around him, but he rejected them all.
"I have a lovely wife and beloved sons and daughters at home. I cannot give a home to other women."
Because of his words, the women who were originally arranged by the family went from being unwilling to feeling resigned, and now to being dissatisfied.
He didn't want to, but these people were trying to find ways to pounce on him.
The carriage soon arrived at the house rented by Lin Anru.
After Lin Anru instructed the servants to prepare food and hot water, she stood outside the door waiting.
When he saw the carriage, he stepped forward and got on.
The people in the car also moved quickly.
The governess helped Liu lift the curtain of the carriage, then got out of the carriage with a small stool and put it on the ground to make it easier for Liu to get off.
Liu reached out to support the governess, got off the bus and saw her husband Lin Anru not far away.
A husband who is both familiar and unfamiliar.
The two looked at each other from a distance, and for a moment neither of them moved.
The unique temperament of a rural person that once belonged to him was long gone. He had the elegant temperament that came with being a scholar. However, after he entered the official career, his elegant temperament became less prominent under his majesty.
There is no resemblance between him and the person in my impression except for his facial features, and even his facial features have become a little unfamiliar due to the change in his temperament.
Lin Anru was dazzled by Liu.
She never knew her wife looked so beautiful with makeup on.
Her makeup, clothes and even every move were full of beauty. If he was not familiar enough with his wife, he would never have believed that the person in front of him was his wife.
Shock and disbelief flashed through their hearts...
In the end, Lin Anru moved first.
He walked forward and held Liu in his arms in front of everyone:
"Madam, thank you for your hard work."
The familiar voice, the familiar smell, Liu's uneasy heart suddenly calmed down.
"Everyone is still watching, let's go home first!"
Liu gently pushed Lin Anru.
"Okay, let's go home!"
Lin Anru let her go, but raised his hand and held hers.
The two of them looked at each other with smiles on their faces and walked towards the house.
Looking from a distance, everyone would praise them - what a beautiful couple!
