Chapter 930 Entering the Role
"You silly boy, your mother is just like you."
Mrs. Hou sighed.
At present, she feels very satisfied with her eldest daughter's performance. She may not like this eldest daughter, but the eldest daughter must respect her and respect her.
So sometimes people's hearts are biased, and no matter how well Lianyi does, they can't change it. Lianyi doesn't care about this at all, but she doesn't want to suffer in the Hou Mansion, so she cooperates with the other party to act out the drama of a loving mother and a filial daughter. That’s all.
When Lianyi walked up to Mrs. Hou and saw Lianyi's charming face, she was even more satisfied. With such an appearance, she would definitely be able to win over Lin Yaozu's heart.
Mrs. Hou took Lian Ripple's hand and rubbed it, then waved her hand to make all the maids around her retreat, leaving only Aunt Yao and Aunt Sun. After letting her daughter sit next to her, she held the handkerchief and said:
"Lianyi, do you blame your mother for not visiting you and sending you to live in Zhuangzi?"
Ripple pursed her lips, showing her sadness at the right time, but still replied in a low voice:
"My mother must have had no choice but to do this. Besides, although I lived a poor life in Zhuangzi, I didn't have enough food and clothing. Without my mother's care, those servants who were looking after the dishes would have crawled over my head. Up."
"Hey! Lianyi, you are a smart child. Your mother does have some difficulties. The matter started when you were born."
Then Mrs. Hou used the theory that twins are unlucky and gave a reasonable explanation for what she did.
"You are my flesh and blood, how can I bear to let you bear an ominous name, so I arranged for you to live in Zhuangzi, hoping to bring you back when you grow up.
You are already eighteen years old, a sensible girl, and can understand your mother's difficulties, so this time I took you back while the Marquis was out on business, and I will find you a job after the Marquis comes back. Regarding marriage, I can feel relieved when I see you get married and have children. "
What Mrs. Hou said was sincere. If she hadn't been the person responsible for the mission, she would have truly believed what she said.
"Thank you, mother, for worrying about your daughter. All daughters listen to their mother."
"Good boy, you also know that your identity is not easy to reveal, so your current identity is that of my distant cousin's posthumous son. You are not suitable for marrying into a high family. Don't blame your mother."
Mrs. Hou made a move to retreat in order to advance, which was also a kind of test for her eldest daughter.
"No matter what identity I marry, I am my mother's daughter. Naturally, my mother will not treat me badly. I will obey my mother."
Lianyi responded obediently.
"Lianyi, I've made you feel wronged."
After Mrs. Hou finished speaking, she let go of Ripple's hand and waved her hand to Grandma Yao. Grandma Yao immediately entered the inner room and came back holding a red lacquered wooden box.
"Lianyi, these are some jewelry I wore when I was young. The styles and colors are very fresh. They are no longer suitable for me, an old woman. You can take it back and wear it for fun. After two days, I will have someone give you some jewelry." New jewelry.”
"Thank you, mother."
Ripple smiled and thanked him.
"You rushed all the way back to the house, are you hungry? Mother will eat something with you, and then you can go back to Bilanyuan to rest."
"I don't feel hungry even if my mother doesn't tell me. I'm really hungry now."
Ripple smiled sheepishly.
"Just tell me when you are hungry, and mother will make you hungry."
Mrs. Hou said angrily, and then waved her hand to let others pass the meal.
The mother and daughter cultivated their relationship for a while, and after Ripple had eaten her fill, she followed Grandma Sun back to Bilanyuan.
After Lianyi left, Mrs. Hou said to Aunt Yao beside her:
"Yao Zhi (this is Grandma Yao's name), what do you think of Ripple?"
"He is a good boy, and he respects his wife very much. He is also well-behaved. I don't see anything else about him yet."
Grandma Yao told the truth, she had only seen this side, and it was good to be able to see so much.
"Call Cherry over later."
"Yes, ma'am."
Xue Lianyi, who was drinking the soup on the other side, looked gloomy after hearing the maid's report. However, she knew that her body was not up to par, and she needed this eldest sister to help her occupy the position of Lin Yaozu's first wife. Now she could not act rashly.
"Miss, don't be angry. Nothing is as important as your good health now."
Xue Lianyi's personal maid Chun Yu immediately advised.
"I know. When mother comes, wake me up."
After saying that, he handed the medicine bowl in his hand to Chunyu.
"Yes, miss, you have a good rest."
Chunyu helped her young lady lie down, covered her with a quilt, and then left the bedroom quietly.
Half an hour later, Mrs. Hou came to see her beloved little daughter.
"Miss, madam is here."
Chun Yu gently woke up Xue Lianyi, helped him sit up, helped him wipe his face with a handkerchief, and then went to welcome Mrs. Hou in.
"Mom, I heard that my sister has arrived. Have you seen her?"
"My darling, why are you sitting up? Don't catch a cold again. What if your condition worsens?"
Mrs. Hou looked at her daughter with dissatisfaction and said.
"Mother!"
Xue Lianyi immediately said coquettishly, anyway, she knew that she was her mother's weakness.
"Okay, why are you in such a hurry? I have already met your sister, but it is not suitable for you to meet her now. I will arrange for you to meet again after a while."
"Mother, you haven't told your eldest sister about asking her to marry for me, right?"
"This matter is not urgent. I will first find a few marriage partners with average conditions, and then tell her about the marriage with Shangshu Mansion. I believe she will know how to choose."
Mrs. Hou was scheming and had already made a plan after meeting her eldest daughter.
"Mother, I knew you were the best to me."
After hearing Mrs. Hou's words, Xue Lianyi was really relieved, but she was afraid that her mother would take advantage of her and abandon her directly.
"Okay, you should take good care of your health first. I will plan your marriage, so the position of the Lin family's head wife can only be yours."
Mrs. Hou said firmly, and then touched her little daughter's pale face lovingly. Fortunately, she left the disaster star, otherwise there would be no one to protect her little daughter from the disaster.
After Lianyi on the other side returned to Bilanyuan, she pretended to be tired, asked the little maid to help her remove her headdress, and went to bed to rest.
She didn't ask about Cherry's whereabouts. She must have been reporting to Mrs. Hou about the situation of her eldest daughter.
The original name has been Xue Lianyi since she was a child, which is the same name as the youngest daughter raised in the mansion. This is also to prevent disasters, otherwise the eldest daughter would not be able to get such a nice name.
After sleeping until dark, Ripple got up. At this time, Tao Tao had already changed her clothes and treated herself as Ripple's personal maid. She served Ripple diligently when she got up, and then passed on the dinner.
"Cherry, why weren't you there when I went to see the madam? I was still thinking of taking you to see the madam!"
Lianyi said casually while eating the bird's nest porridge in the bowl.
"I was tripped by someone. It must be that my dressing was not in line with the rules. They forced me to wash and change clothes, which wasted time, so I couldn't follow the lady."
