The fake daughter married into the mountains and had meat to eat every day during the famine

Nanny Chen nodded.

"Young lady has been in poor health since she was young. She has been taking medicine and acupuncture for a long time. She once found a good teacher and learned a little bit of medical skills. Only then did she gradually improve her health. However, she is naturally not as good as the county lady."

Song Yuntang understood.

"I see."

Nanny Chen bowed to her again.

"The gifts have been brought. I will not delay the county lady any longer and will return first."

"Mammy, take care."

Song Yuntang sent Nanny Chen out of the courtyard, watched her get on the carriage and leave, then turned around and returned to the courtyard.

Qin Ju stepped forward to ask for instructions.

"Madam, where should we put these porcelain and screens?"

"Move the screen to the main courtyard. The room happens to be short of a screen. As for the porcelain, have someone place it on the shelf in the main hall and take good care of it." After she gave the order, she went to the flower hall.

Qin Ju nodded and hurriedly told everyone to carefully put these items away.

Everyone in the main hall and the flower hall saw how respectful the servants of the Tang Mansion were to Song Yuntang just now.

They all knew that Mr. Tang was Xu Qingye's teacher.

But even so, the nanny beside Mrs. Tang's attitude towards Song Yuntang clearly exceeded the respect that should be shown to a student's wife.

This made them curious about Mrs. Xu.

Judging from her demeanor and the way she treats people, she doesn't seem like an ignorant woman from the countryside.

"Brother Xu, is my sister-in-law really from a farming family?" someone couldn't help but ask.

Xu Qingye nodded, "Yes."

"Sigh~"

The man frowned, puzzled.

Immediately afterwards, someone else came in at the gate.

Li Xiuran, the son of the Yingshan City prefect, and his sister Li Yuyao and brother-in-law Lin Jingyao.

"You two, you don't invite a fellow countryman like me to your housewarming party. You really don't consider me a friend," Li Xiuran joked.

Song Yuntang walked out of the flower hall again, with a dignified and graceful demeanor.

"It's not that I didn't invite you, I just didn't expect Mr. Li to be in the capital. I apologize for the rudeness."

I heard that Li Youran failed the provincial examination this year and would not be able to take the palace examination. I really didn't expect that he would come to the capital now.

However, given his knowledge, character, and connections, and the fact that he had already achieved the status of a juren, it was only a matter of time before he became an official in the court.

Although Lin Jingyao is a Jinshi, he has not yet been assigned a position in the court. He is currently preparing for the Hanlin Academy selection next month. Only by passing the imperial examination and becoming a Shujishi will he be eligible to enter the Hanlin Academy.

If one fails the assessment, he can only wait for an opportunity to seek a seventh-rank official position and be sent out to accumulate qualifications and experience.

But with Yingshan Prefecture as my father-in-law, the future won't be too bad.

Xu Qingye saw the three people, greeted the people in the main hall, and walked out of the house.

"Sorry for not welcoming you in person."

Li Xiuran smiled at the two of them and said, "I heard that you two had a son a while ago, and then he was admitted to the Imperial Academy and bought a new house. It's really double happiness, so I came here to join in the fun."

People come to your door not to cause trouble, but now that there are guests, you naturally have to receive them well.

"Since Young Master Li is here, my wife and I are naturally very welcome to come." Song Yuntang said, and made an invitation towards the main hall, "Please come in."

Li Xiuran nodded and walked forward.

Lin Jingyao paused when he passed by Song Yuntang.

"Have Tang'er's eyes fully recovered?"

Facing him again, Song Yuntang was calm.

"It's already very good."

The man didn't say anything, but looked her up and down. Seeing that she was calm, energetic, and had a rosy complexion, he nodded and followed Li Xiuran's footsteps.

Xu Qingye looked in the direction of Lin Jingyao, and then in the direction of Song Yuntang.

This Lin Jingyao is really a thief with evil intentions!

He resisted the urge to throw Lin Jingyao out and walked towards the main hall in silence.

Song Yuntang watched the few people leave, then turned to look at Li Yuyao.

"There are only men in the room. Madam Lin, please follow me to the flower hall."

Li Yuyao nodded slightly and walked slowly with her towards the flower hall.

She saw the look in Lin Jingyao's eyes just now. As she expected, that look was definitely not as simple as a brother looking at his sister.

What she worried about most happened.

It's ridiculous that she thought Lin Jingyao didn't have any concubines because he was chaste. It turns out that he just had someone in his heart.

The reason why he married her, respected and protected her was only because of her family background, not her as a person.

Originally, she had no romantic feelings for Lin Jingyao, but after they got married, his care and consideration, and the physical intimacy they had for several months, gradually made her open her heart.

Now, when she thought about the fact that her husband, whom she loved sincerely, had another woman in his heart, she found it difficult to accept this fact.

Song Yuntang was the first to break the silence between the two.

"When was Mrs. Lin born?"

"A month later than the county lady, the child is just one month old." Li Yuyao glanced in her direction, "The county lady looks radiant, so Brother Xu must be very good to her, right?"

Song Yuntang didn't know why she suddenly asked this question, so he could only nod.

"He treated me very well."

Immediately afterwards, Li Yuyao said something nonsensical.

"The county lady must cherish the talents around her."

Song Yuntang looked at her with suspicion, then thought about it and suddenly understood something.

"That's natural. We are a harmonious couple and have a happy family. I am very satisfied with everything we have now."

As Lin Jingyao's bedmate, Li Yuyao probably saw through Lin Jingyao's feelings for her, so she misunderstood.

As God is my witness, she has absolutely no feelings towards Lin Jingyao at all.

Not to mention that she already has Xu Qingye now, even if she didn't have him, there would not be Lin Jingyao.

Li Yuyao nodded.

"That's good."

Song Yuntang smiled slightly, and in order to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings in the future, he directly brought up the topic.

"I know exactly what Madam Lin is worried about. Don't worry, I have a husband and children, and I cherish them very much. I would never want to destroy someone else's family. You just need to take care of your husband."

Li Yuyao smiled awkwardly, nodded, and said, "The county lady's mind is as clear as ever. I understand."

Now that she has made it clear, we can no longer blame her for this matter.

Ultimately, it’s still my husband’s problem.

Now that things have happened, going to him to make trouble will only drive the couple apart.

After all, it was an unrequited love for him.

I hope he can realize it sooner and focus on her and the children.

As they were talking, they had already arrived in front of the flower hall, and Song Yuntang made a gesture of invitation towards the flower hall.

"Mrs. Lin, please come in."

Li Yuyao nodded slightly and walked into the hall.

He and Jiang Surao were both easy to get along with, and the three of them quickly came to a consensus.

The next person to come was Lord Gu Lansheng, who had been dealt with in Yingshan City before.

After Gu Lansheng was led into the yard by Qin Ju, he immediately saw Song Yuntang standing outside the flower hall.

His voice was neither too loud nor too soft, just enough for Song Yuntang to hear.

"County Lady, it's been a long time since we last met. Are you all right?"
