Chapter 20


To favour the concubine and neglect the wife.


Lian Jin Yu quickly replied to her protective nephew. "Han er, you shouldn’t do this! It was only due to our kitchen negligence… If you take this so seriously, people will think that the general is treating me badly. You should go back now after all, your father is quite strict. You also know your father’s temper if these false rumours are spread one fears it becomes true…"


"What are you saying, Gumu? My father has a great temper! Otherwise, how could he let big aunt take small aunt place…" Lian Mu Han smiled naively.


Dong Fang Jin interrupted him. "You shouldn’t talk so much, didn't the general call your big aunt to give us an explanation? Maybe there was some kind of misunderstanding. Besides both of them are your aunts how could the general treat them differently? Am I not right general An?"


Asked this Dong Fang Jin smiled gently and turned to An Zhong Tao. The latest smiled stiffly. "Taizi praised this general, but it is true, this humble one left his concubine manage the household…"


***


On the other side of the estate, Lian Jin Rong was throwing on the floor all the things she could grab.


Zhang Momo was her oldest servant and confident. She didn't expect the old lady to betray her at the most crucial time.


This was not the worst problem at the moment. Everything should have been perfect. How did her plan fail?


"Come! Go and tell the general I need to talk to him!" order Lian Jin Rong .


"Answering to the er furen, the general stayed in the East Warm Pavillion to share a meal with the da Furen and the da Xiaojie". Said Xiao Cui weakly.


"What did you say?" asked Lian Jin Rong while picking a vase and smashing it down. Porcelain pieces scattered and the poor servant couldn't avoid a shard to cut her face. Feeling the pain she dropped on the floor and cried. Lin Jin Rong couldn't care less and mercilessly kicked her.


"What are you howling for!? Be quiet and leave". Xiao Cui endured the pain and left. Lian Jin Rong anger rose once more when she noticed the mess around her.


"Are you all dead! Why haven't cleaned up yet?"


Watching the maids fearfully cleaning up her room, Lian Jin Rong mood brighten."You all should know who the head of this Fu is. If you try to learn form Zhang Momo you can also share her fate."


The poor maids didn't dare to say a word. Lin Jin Rong snorted. Her eyes smiling. She believed that it was only a matter of time before the general came back to her.


Why would he stay in the East Warm Pavillion, when the woman he liked was here! After all her method in the boudoir were not really proper…


Thinking about this, men only say that they like dignified and proper women. But in reality, none of them wanted a dignified woman to roll between the sheets…


Lian Jin Rong drank her tea, her memory flowing back to twelve years ago.


She wasn't married at the time and Lian JinYu was newlyweds. Coming back to the Lian fu she was bashful that irritated her more than anything.


Maybe Lian Jin Yu herself forgot but at the time she described An Zhong Tao as a young and promising youth. The man had gained the Emperor trust and she was so proud to be married to such a man.


Lian Jin Rong didn't believe her sister and wanted to see what kind of man he really was. That's why she sneaked to the front hall and finally saw An Zhong Tao, hidden behind a screen.


She fell in love at first sight. The man in front of her was even more handsome than what Lin Jin Yu said. Especially his imposing demeanour. Although he was young he was a man that could be underestimated. All she could think at that moment was that she wanted him!


Going back to her room she started to wonder how she could make that man hers.


Two months later Lian Jin Yu got pregnant and she needed to be carefully taken care of. She even had to change her diet.


The Lian Fu sent Hong Momo, who was the wet nurse to taken care of her in past. Lian Jin Rong took this opportunity and asked her father to send her as well.


In the beginning, her father refused. How could he send an unmarried girl to live under somebody else roof? So when Hong Momo left the estate she asked her to relay her worry for her sister and let Lian Jin Yu call for her.later Lian Jin Yu called her.
