"Commoner Lin Qingâer greets the Princess!"
Lin Qingâer stepped forward, gracefully bowing to Princess Lianchun, her eyes briefly meeting Xie Yingyingâs in mid-air!
Princess Lianchun looked her up and down, her gaze finally settling on her hair bun!
She glanced at Nanny Zhang, who was standing beside the elder lady of the Ji Family.
Nanny Zhang understood the hint and scolded, "Such an ill-mannered thing, wearing a married womanâs hairstyle, should call herself a married woman. Whose family upbringing taught her such poor manners?"
As Nanny Zhang finished her rebuke, Lin Qingâer couldnât help but freeze, her calves suddenly weak!
But this weakness lasted only a moment, and soon she made herself stand straight and looked directly at Nanny Zhang!
At this moment, Nanny Zhang was with the elder lady of the Ji Family, mistaking her for a mere servant of the Ji Family, not taking her seriously!
Seeing her behavior, Princess Lianchun immediately understood her thoughts and continued to focus on her.
"This nanny, Iâm speaking with the Princess. Youâre just a servant of the Ji Family, who gave you the face to interrupt here?"
When Lin Qingâer scolded Nanny Zhang, all the ladies present gasped.
Especially those of status, like the wife of Marquis Ting Sheng, the wife of the Duke of Zhen, the royal family and relativesâ women, all covered their mouths!
"You... you little woman, you really... really donât know your place!"
Nanny Zhang, trembling with anger, pointed at Lin Qingâer, her lips quivering, her face full of rage.
"How am I the one not knowing my place? I see that itâs you whoâs clueless!
I am the daughter of a dignified third-grade official family, and the daughter-in-law of Minister Li. With my status, can you point fingers at me?
What a despicable thing!"
As Lin Qingâer cursed, more people gasped, and some started whispering among themselves.
"This Young Madam of the Lin Family is truly bold, daring to scold a palace nanny like that!"
"Indeed! This nanny is clearly of rank, at least a fourth-grade female officer. How could she dare scold her?"
"Look, that nanny is shaking with rage!
This Young Madam Li, I fear, will be shunned from every door in the capital in the future!"
Those with some insight recognized Nanny Zhangâs official status and immediately decided in their hearts not to associate with such an ignorant person again!
Sure enough, just as these thoughts crossed their minds, a soft, childlike voice came to their ears.
"You are so rude, Nanny Zhang is teaching you proper manners, and instead of learning, you call her a scoundrel. With such rudeness, Nanny Zhang might beat you with a paddle!"
Hearing this childish voice, everyoneâs attention naturally turned to the child speaking.
The person speaking was the child in Princessâs arms!
Regarding this child, they seemed to have unconsciously ignored her presence since she entered.
Except for a few clever ones who had met Suisui and recognized her as Chang Rongshun and the Princessâs child, the rest only saw her as a little toddler!
And among those who failed to guess her identity was Lin Qingâer!
"Beat me with a paddle?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Qingâer couldnât help but point at her own nose with a cold sneer, casting a disdainful glance at Nanny Zhang.
"What right does a lowly servant have to beat me? Who does she think she is?
Does she really think she can casually teach others?"
Just as she finished her words, Xiaosuisuiâs big eyes blinked, scratching her little head and said, "But she can even beat me, so why canât she beat you?"
Upon hearing Xiaosuisuiâs words, Lin Qingâer couldnât help but laugh coldly.
"If she can beat you, that means you willingly let a lowly servant hit you with a paddle!
I am the dignified eldest daughter of the Lin Family, and the daughter-in-law of Minister Li of the Zhongshu Province!
With my status, can I let her hit me?"
Lin Qingâer spoke without thinking; never did she imagine her behavior would involve the Li and Lin families.
"Such arrogance!"
Listening to her words, Princess Lianchun couldnât help but boil with anger.
She slammed the side table with force, her fury emanating, causing everyone to take a breath!
"Princess... Princess!"
