The big bandit in the Red Mansion robbed Lin Daiyu at the beginning

Jia Mu looked a little anxious, leaning on her cane and frowning.

"Why haven't you come yet? Could something have delayed you?"

Mrs. Xing remained silent.

Mrs. Wang, who was also a daughter-in-law, smiled and said,

"Old lady, don't worry. With the welcome from the master and the eldest master, nothing will happen to my niece!"

Upon hearing this, Grandmother Jia turned her head and glanced at Mrs. Wang indifferently.

Mrs. Wang immediately realized that she had said the wrong thing and hurriedly bowed her head to admit her mistake.

"My daughter-in-law spoke out of turn, please forgive me, old lady."

Grandmother Jia hummed lightly.

"Well! Although Yu'er is my granddaughter and your junior, she was granted the title of Leping County Lady by the imperial decree. Relatively speaking, she is more respected than a first-rank imperial consort like me."

"Listen, everyone! If anyone dares to be careless and lazy, and act like an elder in front of the Lord of Leping County, don't blame me, the old lady, for maintaining the dignity of the court!"

Mrs. Wang bowed her head in panic.

"Yes! My daughter-in-law knows her mistake!"

She was a daughter of the Wang family in Jinling. When she first entered the mansion, she did not get along well with her sister-in-law, Jia Min, Lin Daiyu's mother.

Several times before, Grandmother Jia wanted to bring Lin Daiyu to Beijing, but nothing happened in the end.

In addition to Lin Ruhai's unwillingness to separate his daughter, more credit was due to Mrs. Wang in the Rongguo Mansion.

At this moment, he deliberately called Lin Daiyu his niece in order to show his status as an elder and to gain an advantage over her when they first met.

But unexpectedly, the old lady's mind was as clear as a mirror, and she scolded her directly.

Knowing that his niece was different now, he quickly bowed his head and admitted his mistake.

Mrs. Xing, who was standing by, glanced at Mrs. Wang from the side. Her expression remained unchanged, but she felt indescribably pleased in her heart.

Grandmother Jia naturally knew what Mrs. Wang was thinking. After all, she was her daughter-in-law, so she sighed softly.

"Oh! It's good to know! My poor daughter has been living alone since she was a child, leaving that poor granddaughter behind. I don't know how she has survived all these years!"

At the end of his speech, he actually started to choke up.

Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang were also busy wiping the corners of their eyes with handkerchiefs, comforting the old lady with red eyes.

At this moment, the maidservant said happily,

"I'm coming!"

"Miss Lin is here!"

Jia Mu and others looked up hurriedly.

Then he saw the sedan chair he had arranged for him to welcome him was carried by four beautiful and energetic maids, and entered from the courtyard gate outside Rongxi Hall.

On both sides of the sedan chair, there was a petite maid and a nanny in her forties.

Looking at this scene, Grandmother Jia nodded secretly in her heart.

As expected of a Jiangnan noble family, all the maids and nannies, except for the younger one, looked extraordinary.

Especially the nanny, the experienced Jia Mu only saw the nanny's steps and the solemn expression on her face, which was always alert to the surroundings.

It was obvious at a glance that this person must be outstanding, and there might not be many people in the entire Rongguo Mansion who could match him.

From this, we can see how much importance his son-in-law Lin Ruhai attaches to his granddaughter!

However, Grandmother Jia still turned around and glanced at Mrs. Wang.

Mrs. Wang quickly turned around and whispered to the person behind her,

"Don't be so presumptuous in front of the county lord!"

Then he lowered his head and stood behind Lady Jia, respectfully greeting her.

As the four maids carried the sedan chair to the ground in front of Jia Mu and others,

Grandmother Jia hurriedly leaned on her crutches, her face showing kindness and excitement. She took a step forward with red eyes and looked at the curtain of the sedan chair with anticipation.

When the sedan chair landed, Rong Mama first bowed slightly to Lady Jia and others.

Then he leaned over to the sedan window and whispered to the sedan,

"Miss, we're here!"

Grandmother Jia looked at the sedan chair excitedly. Lady Xing and Lady Wang both lowered their heads and stood behind Grandmother Jia respectfully, not daring to be careless.

Only Tanchun, Xichun and a few brave maids raised their heads curiously and looked in the direction of the sedan chair.

A soft "hmm" sound came from the sedan.

When Grandmother Jia heard this, she turned around and told a maidservant beside her who had a nice figure and a few freckles on her face,

"mandarin duck……"

Jia Mu's original intention was to ask her maid Yuanyang to go forward and open the curtain for Lin Daiyu in the sedan chair.

But the words were not finished yet.

Rong Mama and Xueyan, who were accompanying the sedan chair, had already walked to the front of the sedan chair, and were obviously ready to open the curtain directly.

Seeing this, Jia Mu hurriedly said,

"Madam, wait a minute!"

Rong Mama paused when she heard this, turned to look at Jia Mu, and said respectfully,

"My county lord has arrived and is about to get out of his sedan chair. I wonder if the old lord has any instructions?"

Hearing what Rong Mama said, Jia Mu's heart tightened and she looked at Rong Mama deeply.

As expected of a nanny from the Lin family who could escort her own granddaughter who was all alone to the capital,

The words are also quite sharp.

There was nothing wrong with these words, but they were also a subtle reminder for her to be aware of the identity of her granddaughter.

But after all, Jia Mu was old and wise, and everything just flashed through her mind. Without hesitation, she smiled and said to Rong Mama,

"Mammy, you must be tired after escorting my poor granddaughter all this way. Please let this maidservant beside me open the curtain for you!"

Then he turned around and looked at the mandarin duck beside him.

"Yuanyang, why don't you come over and help your cousin open the curtain?!"
