Chapter 380 Turbulence Came in Secret

Ms. Tian had worked in the Lin’s Mansion for years after all. In an afternoon, she had roughly known about the old maids and maids in the Prince’s Mansion.

Unlike Baishao and Baiji , Ms. Tian could almost tell someone’s disposition at a glance.

By the time of dinner, she could almost remember the names and appearances of those people she saw this afternoon.

In Lin Mengya’s yard, they had always been unrestrained. Except for the old maids, the maids could eat at the table.

Sometimes, Snow and the baby tiger, which looked a little scary, pretended to be pitiful and cute beside Lin Mengya, and then were also allowed to eat by the table.

However, today Ms. Tian frowned, watching everyone in Liuxin Courtyard finish this meal.

“Ms. Tian, you look unhappy. What’s wrong?”

Lin Mengya was used to repressing others with her status, but in fact, she paid no attention to class at all.

Under her influence, several maids of hers were not punctilious either.

“Miss, I know that you cherish these maids. Madam had treated us in the same way. However, you are the legal wife of the prince. Even if the Crown Prince ascended the throne in the future, you are the princess. If it’s known by someone else, it won’t be good for both you and them.”

Lin Mengya knew that Ms. Tian said this for her own good.

She was a smart person. Inspired by Ms. Tian’s words, she instantly understood what Ms. Tian meant.

Now although Long Tianyu’s identity didn’t make him a target for all, it was quite striking.

As the princess, she had a bad reputation. She seemingly felt uncomfortable if she didn’t do something shockingly controversial every two or three days.

However, the situation was different when it came to Baishao and other maids. Once their deeds were spread, they would only be criticized for being unruly.

It was bad for their reputation in the future. If they wanted to marry into a family, they would certainly be considered prideful and self-willed when the family examined their conduct.

She didn’t take this into consideration. Although she didn’t care about damaging her reputation, she couldn’t implicate Baiji and other maids.

“Okay, I’ll talk to them about it. You are thoughtful. We are too young to take this into consideration.”

On hearing her words, Ms. Tian smoothed her knitted brows.

Fortunately, Miss had inherited the temperament from Madam and could listen to the advice beneficial to her.

Ms. Tian heartily liked the two maids as soon as she saw them.

In addition, the two maids were extremely nice to Miss. Thus, she naturally regarded Baiji and Baishao as one of them in her heart.

“By the way, when I went to the kitchen today, I saw the dishes prepared for the masters of the mansion. Miss, pardon me for making bold to ask a question. Are you or which Madam in the mansion is pregnant?”

“Puff.”

Lin Mengya spat the tea out of her mouth, opened her eyes wide and stared at Ms. Tian with disbelief in her eyes.

“It’s, it’s impossible! Could it be a maid in the mansion is pregnant?”

How could it be possible!

Although it had been nearly a year since she and Long Tianyu got married, they were still innocent.

Not to mention a sexual relationship, even holding hands and kissing were extremely rare for them.

Besides, the maids in the mansion could be considered chaste.

Long Tianyu was not a womanizer. Concubine De’s husband was still unconscious in the Imperial Palace, and she didn’t look like pregnant anyway.

“It’s unlikely. The situation in the prince’s mansion is different from that in our mansion. Nevertheless, it’s not difficult to guess the regular dishes for the masters. If it’s a maid who is pregnant, she should at least inform you, the hostess of the mansion. Besides, I have looked around in the mansion and found that although not all of them are afraid of you, they are quite respectful to you. Moreover, something like pregnancy can be considered a joyful event for the mansion. In general, the maid will inevitably get some rewards if she reports it to you. I can tell the dishes are prepared for the masters.”

When Madam Lin was pregnant, Ms. Tian had taken care of her all through her pregnancy.

So she knew a lot about it.

If Ms. Tian was sure, it couldn’t be false.

In the prince’s mansion, only Lin Mengya, Long Tianyu and Concubine De, who lived in Art Courtyard, could be exactly considered masters.

Among the three people, Long Tianyu probably was the most likely to be pregnant!

Lin Mengya didn’t dare to neglect it, but didn’t want to beat the grass to startle the snake.

It was late. If she inquired about it now, it looked weird.

“I got it. The prince is going to make an inspection tour for spring ploughing these days. So we should not bother him.”

She hoped that it was just a false alarm.

However, she sensitively detected the unique breath of conspiracy.

Lin Mengya, who didn’t feel like sleeping, leant against the window and read Qingzheng Dispensatory.

As she read it, she found the book extremely precious and detailed.

Sometimes only a few lines inspired her and made her feel like she saw the clouds and mist scatter. She could find the solutions to many intractable problems on it.

The more surprising thing was that there were many comments left by predecessors on it.

These comments were actually as precious as Qingzheng Dispensatory.

Lin Mengya read them carefully, hoping to find the traces left by her mother on it.

As she read intently, a breath of fragrance suddenly came into her nose.

She felt the subtle and chilly scent from her cheeks.

Lin Mengya turned around and saw a handful of winter jasmines which had just bloomed.

The light yellow petals showed no trace of fear for the coldness in early spring and were different from the snow plum blossoms with gallant pride in the severe winter.

Winter jasmine was more like a pretty girl of humble birth. It bloomed quietly, adding the first touch of brightness to the spring which had gradually got warm again.

“Is this for me?”

Lin Mengya smiled suddenly, and that smile could be compared with a hundred flowers in bloom. The surprise made her clear eyes sparkle as if filled with stars.

After receiving the winter jasmines from Long Tianyu , Lin Mengya immediately found a bottle, filled it with clear water, and put it in.

There were numerous antiques and treasures in her room, but something fresh like this was rare.

She managed to get some orchids, but they were planted in a basin made of white jade. Compared with these winter jasmines, they looked a bit more artificial with a lack of the freshness and elegance of a plant.

Watching her fiddling with the winter jasmines with joy, Long Tianyu showed an imperceptible smile.

For him, Lin Mengya was more like a novelty that he had never seen.

She said repeatedly that treasures and money were her favorite and looked money-obsessed when he gave her money.

However, now she was smiling cheerfully at a handful of worthless flowers. Could it be that these flowers were more precious than pearls and jade in her eyes?

“Look, how does it look?”

Lin Mengya presented the vase, with which she had fiddled for a while, to Long Tianyu like presenting a treasure.

The winter jasmines that had just bloomed looked a little bit more rural. The faint fragrance was a little deep and pleasant.

“Hmm, it looks great.”

Praised by Long Tianyu, she looked like a child. Lin Mengya’s smile became increasingly sweet. After thinking about it, she placed the winter jasmines at her bedside and fiddled with them delightedly.

“I… I’m leaving tomorrow.”

She, who was stroking the flowers with her tender little hands, suddenly stopped for a few seconds and then said in her typical relaxed tone.

“Okay, take care of yourself on your way. Have you packed everything you need? It’s probably a long journey, so you need to bring more clothes. I told Baiji to prepare a few sets of casual clothes for you. Tell Lin Kui to come over tomorrow and bring them all. Besides, I know that there must be some imperial physicians going with you, but you should bring some common medicines. During your journey, you should take care of yourself, avoid catching a cold and make sure that you drink boiled and clean water, lest you suffer from diarrhea. And…”

She was talking endlessly, but was suddenly interrupted.

With no defence, she felt her shoulders caught by a pair of big hands. She was turned around violently and instantly bumped into the solid chest.

She was tightly held in his arms. Lin Mengya didn’t know what to say for a moment, and her feigned relax suddenly collapsed when he approached suddenly.

“I got it. What else do you want to tell me?”

His deep and low voice contained the affection that enchanted Lin Mengya.

The reluctance to part from each other was definitely not a monologue played by Lin Mengya.

It had been almost a year since they got married. Long Tianyu had originally got used to being alone. However, after getting used to the company of her who was mischievous, he learned that he had actually been so lonely.

He wished he could take her with him. In this way, no matter where he went, he could see the vivid expression on her little face.

He subconsciously tightened his grip. She always did something that distressed him, but he still considered it novel and interesting.

Sometimes, Long Tianyu even felt that if he married someone other than Lin Mengya, he would probably never experience this kind of life.

Thus, Baili Wuchen felt that he had changed into someone no longer indestructible with Lin Mengya as his soft spot.

Even so, he was still willing to take Lin Mengya with him and reluctant to see her disappear in his sight.

“And, and you’d better not pick the wildflowers by the road! Otherwise, I’ll teach you a lesson!”

With a flushed face, Lin Mengya pretended to gnash her teeth in anger.

She twisted Long Tianyu’s ear symbolically with her small hand, seeming to threaten to destroy his family if he dared to be unfaithful to her.

Long Tianyu did not consider her unbridled, but gave a meaningful smile instead. But then, his face darkened, and he said with regret.

“But if the officials want to offer me some girls, what should I do?”

“No way! Whoever dares to do that, I’ll set him a memorial tablet!”

The princess gnashed her teeth, sounding extremely clear at night.

“But…”

The prince pretended to be hesitant, which was followed by the princess’ roar.

“No but!”

“If…”

“No if!”

“Okay, okay. You’re the boss.”

The prince snickered…
