Chapter Five Hundred Thirty-Six: The Highest Realm of Lying

eror bestowed upon the bitter melon the name "Biyu," and the fragrant melon the name "Jinfu." 。“Don't mind the lack of rewards from the Emperor. Just these two names are treasures.” 。From now on, the...Li Lao'er hugged Jia Yin and then got out of the car, smiling and saying to everyone, "Everyone, clean up and go home early. You're all tired today." 。At night, the patrolmen in the village are doubled. Be careful at this time. 。"Yeah, yeah, hurry home for dinner. We patrol at night." 。Especially over here in the melon patch, keep a close eye on it! I'm not saying anyone wants to sneakily pick one or two for a taste of freshness, but even the wild animals coming down from the mountains could cause some trouble. We’d be heartbroken if they harmed even a few melons, you know 。"This is all silver!" the village head added. 。The villagers all answered loudly, and in groups they walked toward the village. 。A few people from the village also came over to chat with the village chief, then packed up and went home. 。In Li's courtyard, Tao Hongying was in the kitchen with Dongmei and a few others making dinner. 。 Lao Tai Li and Mrs. Wen were sitting under the eaves, mending shoes. He Ma'am was helping to straighten the hemp thread, she couldn't help but keep peering out of the courtyard and sighed, "It's all my fault that this old bone is so useless. Why did I have a stomachache last night Otherwise, wouldn't I have gone to the palace with the county princess" 。"This is the county princess's first time entering the palace. I wonder if she remembers the rules" Li Laotai was also worried, but she smiled and said, "Don't worry, Funiu'er is clever. Even if she makes a mistake in etiquette, she can cover it up." 。Besides, she's just a child. No one can expect too much from her. 。" Shui Ling was drawing water in the courtyard and shouted, "Old Madam, next time let me go into the palace with the young lady." 。If someone bullies the young lady, I will protect her. 。Li Laotai heard this and couldn't help but laugh and cry. She said with a reproachful smile, "Well then, you have such a fiery temper, just like charcoal, it ignites at the slightest touch. " 。You're probably in over your head now. You'll cause more trouble than Fu Niu'er ever could. 。Everyone laughed, and at that moment, the carriage arrived at the door. 。Jia Yin jumped out of the carriage, lifted her skirt and ran into the courtyard. She laughed and pounced into her grandmother's arms, shouting, "Grandma, I haven't seen you in three years! Woo woo, I miss you so much!"Li Lao Tai was pressed by her granddaughter and couldn't breathe. After finally pulling her granddaughter off of her, she said, "Were you drinking in the palace Silly girl, what nonsense are you talking about! It hasn't even been a day, how can it be three years""Books say that one day apart is like three autumns! Three autumns is three years!" Jia Yin hugged her grandmother's neck and twisted around. 。Having witnessed the treacherous nature of people in the palace, she cherished the warmth of her own family even more. 。At this moment, I wish I could stay in grandma's arms forever. 。Lao Li didn't know her granddaughter's thoughts. She was coaxed into giggling and kissed the little girl's chubby cheeks, instructing, "Mr. Wen and your Uncle Liu are drinking tea inside. Go say hello first." 。"Got it, Grandma!" Jia Yin happily replied, snuggling back into Mrs. Wen's arms for a while before running inside. 。Li Lao'er had already been accompanying Mr. Wen and Liu Zhiheng to drink tea. These two had originally come to pick up the jade gourds and golden fruits, but seeing how lively the opening ceremony was, they sat in the field and ate watermelon. Since it wasn't early, they decided to stay for the night. 。Now that the children are away from home and Li Zhensheng has gone south, only Li Laer is left in the front courtyard of the Li family. It's convenient for them to stay here. 。Even Mr. Wen didn't plan to go back next door, clamoring to have a drink with Li Lao Er and Liu Zhi Heng in the evening. 。Jia Yin curtsied to Mr. Wen and Liu Zhiheng, then dashed back to the backyard hut, pretending to have found a little fox, but in reality, she had released it from her spatial dimension. 。The little fox was so happy that it jumped several times before running back to the front yard. 。Women have an innate resistance to fluffy animals. 。Mrs. Wen hugged the little fox and her face also broke into a smile. 。Jia Yin joined in and also played a few rounds, but was pulled away by grandma. 。 "Grandma, I didn't rob anything! These are birthday gifts from Uncle Huang," 。“Mrs. Wen interjected, “Isn’t Funiang not due to celebrate her birthday for another month How come the Emperor bestowed gifts so early”Jia Yin changed her expression and replied, “Uncle Huang let me play with the Third Princess, but the Third Princess doesn't like me and quarreled with me...” 。Uncle Huang was afraid I would be heartbroken, so he gave me my birthday present in advance. 。" Jia Yin didn't want to tell her family about what happened in the palace, so they wouldn't worry. But she couldn't bear to stay silent, afraid that her family would be unaware of the situation and treat the Empress and the Third Princess as good people, without any defenses. 。 Thus, she said half-truthfully, “The Empress isn’t good either. She wants her father to marry her relative as his wife, and when he refuses, she gets upset. How petty!”Indeed, Old Lady Li didn’t think her granddaughter was being mistreated. After all, her granddaughter was lively and energetic, not looking like someone who was suffering. 。She was only asking Lady Wen, "Are there any suitable girls in the Empress Dowager's family Is this because you have a good opinion of the Marquis" Lady Wen shook her head and whispered, "It doesn't matter if those high-ranking families have suitable girls or not, it doesn't matter if they favor the Marquis..." 。"What's most important is that the Marquis now has military power and the Emperor favors him..." Li Laotai instantly understood and couldn't help but sigh, "There's no need to say more, the Marquis is now a piece of fat everyone wants a bite of." 。" Mrs. Wen laughed when she heard this and advised, "Sister-in-law, after the Marquis returns, don't try to persuade him..." 。"The marquis has it all figured out!" "I wouldn't dare advise him!" Lady Li quickly waved her hand, replying, "A man like the marquis, not just any woman could be a match for him..." 。Besides, a daughter-in-law is meant to be her husband's lifelong companion. A marquis surely deserves to marry someone he likes. 。" Mrs. Wen was relieved and lowered her head to pet the little chubby girl, "Our little Fu Niu is sad, isn't she Such a cute Fu Niu, why doesn't the princess like to play with her" Jia Yin waved her small chubby hand indifferently, "She doesn't like it, so be it. There are plenty of people who like me, I don't need her." 。Everyone burst into laughter again. Only Old Lady Li sighed and frowned slightly, unable to help but complain to Mrs. Wen, "Who knows what's gotten into Funiu She's always been disliked by the other maids since she was young." 。There are also several girls of similar age in the village, but they never come to play with Funiang. 。Madam Wen understood this quite well and soothed the old lady's worries. 。"Aunt, little girls are naturally observant. When we play together, we always compare each other's dresses and headbands." 。Our little Fu Niu eats well, is plump and well-dressed. She doesn't have to do any work during the day. The other girls don't envy or covet her, but they can't help but feel inferior and are unwilling to get close. 。"

Old Li slapped her thigh and exclaimed, “That’s right! I was puzzled before. Now that you say it, it makes perfect sense! Not just children, even us adults, if our neighbors are doing well while we struggle, it feels awkward, doesn’t it” 。Mrs. Wen smiled and said, “Yes, sister-in-law,” 。But don't worry, Fu Niuer is still young. In the future, when I go out as a guest, I'll take her with me. Maybe we'll meet some kind little girls and she can make some new playmates. 。"Alright, let Fu Niu'er learn some manners again. That way she won't be so mischievous and get laughed at. " 。"Li Laotai nodded, thought for a moment and said, "That princess in the palace, probably envies our Fu Nuer's eloquence. She charms the emperor, so she dislikes Fu Nuer." 。It has to be said, she really laid it all out. 。courtyard.Although the difference isn't huge, the fruit from the small courtyard is still a bit sweeter than the fruit grown on the mountain.Without mentioning that the Emperor had bestowed upon her t...
