Transmigrated into a concubine, the main task is to make money

Chapter 12: Pretending to be good, but shooting oneself in the foot

"soy Mujer."

Lin Yuxi scolded her.

Luyun smiled and was not afraid. She knew that the young lady was playing a joke on her, so she wrung out the towel and handed it over.

After Lin Yuxi finished washing up, she sat in front of the dressing table. The bronze mirror reflected her beautiful face. Lin Yuxi nodded secretly, thinking that she was quite good-looking.

The lips are bright red, the teeth are white and shiny, the eyes are bright and charming, and the cheeks are full of power.

This sentence suddenly popped up in my mind, and I couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"What are you laughing at, young lady?"

Luyun asked in confusion.

Lin Yuxi's grin became even more exaggerated:

"I am laughing at your lady. I am naturally beautiful and my smile can conquer the world."

Very shameless and narcissistic.

"That's right. In the eyes of this servant, no one can compare to the young lady."

Luyun said with a smile.

Cuizhu also smiled and fiddled with her hands skillfully.

Cuizhu is very good at combing hair. Any complicated hairstyle becomes simple and easy in her hands. She can do it with just her fingers. She also knows how to match hair accessories.

She was dressed rather simply today, with a turquoise jacket with a ruyi cloud pattern on the upper body, and a long silk skirt of the same color that trailed on the ground. She had her hair in a bun with a jade lotus leaf hairpin, which made her look simple and elegant.

Lin Yuxi was very satisfied.

"Put the food on the table."

As soon as he finished speaking, Cuiping came in with breakfast, set the table and bowed to Lin Yuxi.

The old lady felt sorry for her and was afraid that she would not be able to take care of her because she only had one maid, Luyun.

Two second-class maids, Cuizhu and Cuiping, were sent over, and Luyun was naturally promoted to the head maid.

After breakfast, Lin Yuxi brought Luyun to pay her respects to the old lady. The old lady kept her to talk for a while, and reminded her to take better care of her health and not to neglect her needlework.

After leaving the old lady's courtyard, he walked to the mistress's courtyard to pay his respects to Liu.

As soon as I arrived at the yard, I heard laughter coming from the house. Liu's laughter was really different, the squeaking sound gave people goose bumps.

Lin Yuxi entered the room and saw Lin Yuhan Liu covering her mouth with a handkerchief, with a smile in the corner of her eyes, and said angrily:

"You are such a mischievous person. You are so old and still say such things. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at? Mother is already old. How many more years can you accompany her? By then, I am afraid you will blame your mother for not finding you a suitable husband earlier."

Liu looked at Lin Yuhan with eyes full of doting, but her smile froze immediately when she saw Lin Yuxi's figure out of the corner of her eye. She glanced at her with disgust and then returned her gaze to her daughter.

Liu hated Lin Yuxi, and Lin Yuhan also disliked her for no reason.

Just like Liu, he ignored Lin Yuxi and continued to act like a spoiled child to Liu:

"My daughter is telling the truth. Mother must hate her, otherwise why would she marry me off so early? She must not want to be a nuisance to you."

Her lips were pouted, and she looked extremely aggrieved at having lost weight.

Liu looked at her daughter's beautiful face, which was no worse than that of the slave girl's daughter, and her smile deepened.

He pinched her cheek gently.

"You are so rude. There are strangers here. Don't say those things anymore. The Sun family is here to pay the betrothal gift today. If your in-laws hear about it, they will definitely say that you are unruly and will not be welcomed by your parents-in-law after you get married."

Liu Shi has something to say.

Luyun sneered when she heard this, knowing that Liu was implying that the young lady was gossiping and ruining the eldest lady's reputation.

Did she think that everyone had a bad heart like her? She was really judging others by her own standards.

Lin Yuxi naturally understood what was said, but she didn't mind. She had heard a lot of innuendos in recent days.

Now that Liu couldn't find any fault with her, she would catch her every day to set rules for her. At first, she would pretend not to see it intentionally or unintentionally and leave her aside.

She then made a veiled complaint, saying that the prime minister had a big stomach and was a magnanimous person who would not bother with these petty people.

It's just a pity to waste those precious time.

Her expression remained unchanged, and just as she was about to greet Liu, she saw a flash of red passing by like the wind.

"My daughter pays respects to my mother."

Lin Yuhe greeted Liu gracefully and then threw herself into her arms, her bell-like laughter filling the whole room.

"Oh my, look at my daughter. She's almost thirteen and still acts like a little brat, jumping around all the time. She doesn't look like a lady at all."

Liu touched her face lovingly.

Lin Yuhe wrinkled her nose:

"No, this is called liveliness and smart beauty. My daughter takes after her mother."

"You're the only one who talks sweetly. Have you had breakfast yet?"

Liu glared at her, but there was still a complacent smile on the corner of her lips.

"Not yet. I just wanted to come over to have breakfast with my mother. I'm almost starving after walking all the way here."

After listening to Lin Yuhe's words, Liu ordered someone to serve breakfast.

Soon, golden horns, crystal plum blossom buns, phoenix tail steamed buns, lotus seed porridge and many other things were placed on the table. The aroma wafted over and made people swallow their saliva.

Liu held Lin Yuhan's hands while holding Lin Yuhe's arm, and the three of them, mother and daughter, began to eat as if no one was around.

Liu picked up a piece of Fengwei Shaomai and gave it to Lin Yuhe:

"Eat quickly. If you get hungry, your mother will be heartbroken. Han'er, eat too."

Lin Yuxi was really speechless about this Liu. She was already in her thirties, how could she be so childish?

Do you think you can scare her like this?

I really don't know whether to say she is brainless or a master of pretending.

"What's that smell so good? It makes the gluttony in my stomach come out."

Suddenly, a hearty voice was heard, followed by a shadow at the door blocking the sunlight.

"Master, Han'er and He'er are filial and have breakfast with me today. Master, you must be hungry. Please sit down and have breakfast with me."

Liu quickly stood up and bowed, then gently and skillfully took Mr. Lin's arm and tried to pull him to sit down.

"A daughter pays respects to her father."

Lin Yuhan and Lin Yuhe also paid their respects to Mr. Lin.

"Sir, weren't you going to Mingde City to discuss business? Why did you come back so soon?"

"I left something behind. I came back to get it and left. You guys eat. The carriage is still waiting outside."

Mr. Lin said with a smile, seeming to be in a good mood.

"Master, what did you leave behind? I will take it for you."

The voice was full of flattery.

Master Lin was about to say something when he saw Lin Yuxi standing with her head slightly lowered. His face suddenly darkened and his voice became deeper:

"What do you mean by this? Your own daughter eats at the same table with you, but you insist that the second girl set the rules. Is this how you educate your children?"

Lin Yuxi immediately felt several pairs of eyes falling on her at the same time, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly. This was beyond her expectations.

But it’s also good. Seeing the Liu mother and daughter being humiliated made me feel better.

Liu secretly thought that it was not good, she really forgot about her.

"When did the second girl come? Why didn't she say anything? I wanted the servants to add a pair of bowls and chopsticks. Master, you have wronged me. I have always treated my children equally. They are all your flesh and blood. How could I be biased? It's just that the second girl was too quiet and I didn't notice."
