After finally dealing with Xiao Jingyi, Lin Qingyao came to her mother's side.

Mother, eldest aunt, and Fang Yueru were taking the eldest sister, fourth sister, and fifth sister to talk to the ladies.

"Yao'er, come and say hello to all the ladies."

"Yao'er has met all the ladies."

"Oh, this must be Miss Lin Er. The four ladies in the Hou Mansion are really more beautiful than the others. Mrs. Hou and the General's wife are so lucky."

The person who spoke was Mrs. Tang from the House of Lords of the Ministry of Finance, who was the mother-in-law of the eldest sister in her previous life.

Seeing how satisfied she is with her eldest sister, she must have already discussed the marriage with her eldest aunt.

It seemed that she had to investigate this Tang Wensheng as soon as possible. If something was really wrong, she could find a way to stop this marriage.

Fang Yueru on the side curled her lips when she heard this. It was good that no one noticed Rou'er at this time, so that no one would know about her punishment.

It's just that so many ladies from royal families and aristocratic families came today, so many opportunities to make friends were missed.

It's all because of Lin Qingyao, a little bitch, that her Rou'er couldn't attend today's birthday banquet.

Although Rou'er has captured the fourth prince, who would think that he knows too many noble people.

"I remember there were five young ladies in the Hou Mansion. Why don't we see the third young lady today?"

Mrs. Xuanpinghou had met Lin Qingrou at a banquet before and raised questions.

It looked like she was satisfied with her eldest sister, but she didn't know if Gu Jing'an had mentioned her eldest sister to his mother.

Hearing that someone was paying attention to Rou'er, Fang Yueru was so happy that she immediately wanted to reply, completely forgetting what she had just thought.

But just as she was about to speak, Yan Shi, who was sitting next to her, held her arm down and signaled her not to talk nonsense.

Fang Yueru paused for a moment, she really couldn't talk nonsense on this occasion, otherwise it would also affect Rou'er's reputation.

"Rou'er was ill a few days ago and has not recovered yet. Today is my mother's big day. It would be a big sin for my mother if she is over the illness, so I will let her rest in the room."

"That's it. Miss Lin San is also a filial person."

Mrs. Yong'an Hou had met Lin Qingrou before and had a good impression of her.

Everyone agreed.

Fang Yueru was a little proud. Not only did she conceal Rou'er's punishment, but she also gained Rou'er a good reputation as a filial piety, which was not a loss at all.

Lin Qingyao sneered in her heart, she really knew how to pretend.

If it weren't for the face of the Zhongyong Hou Mansion, Lin Qingyao would have exposed her on the spot.

"Okay, Wan'er, you can take your sisters to greet your little sisters. We won't hold you back."

Yan ordered her daughter with a smile.

The other ladies also laughed when they heard this, "Yes, go ahead and let's talk quietly among ourselves."

Lin Qingyao followed her eldest sister to the table of young girls. As soon as they greeted each other, a girl wearing a moon-white pleated skirt came towards her.

Lin Qingyao recognized her as Tang Yingqian, Tang Wensheng's sister, and she was very close to Lin Qingrou.

As expected, she didn't see Lin Qingrou and came to ask about the situation.

"Miss Lin Er, where is Rou'er? I've been looking for her for a long time and can't find her."

Although Tang Yingqian was asking, her attitude towards Lin Qingyao was very cold.

Lin Qingyao suddenly remembered something. This Miss Tang also liked Xiao Jingyi. In her previous life, Lin Qingrou knew her thoughts and guarded her at every turn. In the end, she did not even enter the palace.

I wonder what would happen if she knew about the relationship between Xiao Jingyi and Lin Qingrou. Lin Qingyao couldn't wait to watch the show where the sisters turned against each other.

Thinking of this, Lin Qingyao smiled unconsciously. This Miss Tang was also deceived by Lin Qingrou's appearance. She was not a bad person.

However, Lin Qingyao remembered that she had liked Xiao Jingyi for many years, and she was afraid that she would do anything for Xiao Jingyi, so she had to guard against him.

This is also the reason why she has a cold attitude towards herself.

After all, in her eyes, Lin Qingyao was Xiao Jingyi's sweetheart.

Naturally she regarded herself as the enemy.

"Ms. Tang, my third sister is sick and is resting in her room."

Lin Qingyao answered her according to Fang Yueru's words.

"Rou'er is sick?"

Tang Yingqian glared at Lin Qingyao displeasedly, as if asking if she had bullied Lin Qingrou and made her sick.

It seemed that Lin Qingrou often spoke ill of Lin Qingyao to her with added embarrassment.

Lin Qingrou was planning to use herself as a scapegoat and let her bear Tang Yingqian's hatred on her behalf.

Women's jealousy is the most terrifying. There is no chance that Tang Yingqian will do something to hurt Lin Qingyao one day.

"Yes, but please don't worry, Miss Tang. It's not serious. I'm just afraid that my grandmother will be sick on this good day, so I didn't come to the birthday banquet."

Tang Yingqian felt relieved after hearing what Lin Qingyao said, so she said no more, just nodded to her and returned to her seat.

If it wasn't for asking about Rou'er's situation, she wouldn't have talked to her.

I really don’t know what’s so good about her, Rou’er and the Fourth Prince are all surrounding her.

Thinking of the fourth prince, Tang Yingqian's dislike for Lin Qingyao increased even more.

She is just a useless idiot, how can she win the favor of the fourth prince.

After sending Tang Yingqian away, Lin Qingyao went straight to Xiao Qingning when she saw that the others were talking in twos and threes.

Xiao Qingning was talking to Princess Mingyue.

"What are you talking about? Are you so happy?"

Lin Qingyao sat down next to Xiao Qingning and asked with a smile.

"We're chatting about someone's love interest."

Xiao Qingning looked at Princess Mingyue with a smile, her eyes full of ridicule.

Upon hearing this, Lin Qingyao knew that the person they were talking about was the second brother.

Lin Qingyao pretended not to know, "Who is so honored to be favored by our sister Mingyue?"

"Yao'er, this person has a close relationship with you."

Xiao Qingning said in a pretentious manner.

Lin Qingyao snickered in her heart, this silly girl thought she didn't know.

"It's your second brother."

Unexpectedly, Princess Mingyue blew herself up first. She was indeed a straightforward person.

At the mention of her second brother, Princess Mingyue immediately blushed.

"My cousin just met your second brother in the yard. It can be said that it was love at first sight."

"No girl would be attracted by my second brother's appearance, but his face that keeps strangers away makes many girls intimidated. My mother is always worried that he will scare away girls."

Lin Qingyao smiled and said: "My second brother is a person who doesn't understand the style. Sister, have you thought about it?"

Although she knew that the princess really liked her second brother, Lin Qingyao still said this deliberately.

"Of course. I've seen a lot of handsome people, but this is the first time my heart skipped a beat when I saw him."

Xiao Mingyue's face instantly turned red when she thought of the moment she saw him.

"In that case, let me help you. An iceberg like my brother can only be melted by a little sun like you. I can't help you."

In order for her second brother to have a wife, Lin Qingyao had to work hard.

"Thank you, Yao'er."

"We will be a family soon, why are you being polite to me?"

Xiao Mingyue smiled shyly when she heard this.
