Stunning Poisonous Doctor Princess Chapter 359 - A Rude Watchdog

Chapter 359 A Rude Watchdog

In ancient tis, going back to her own family was not an easy choice for a married woman to make.

She had to ask her father- and mother-in-law for their consent, and then she needed her husband to escort her back. The process had a strict etiquette.

If she went back ho without her husband, people would view her as if she had been repelled.

Lin ngya was in the carriage. She felt that the status of ancient won was far lower than that in modern tis. In modern tis, people would argue intensely about whether to spend the Spring Festival with the husband’s family or the wife’s family.

She even felt fortunate to be reborn as an orphan, which saved her lots of family troubles.

She was now married to soone in the ancient tis, and each of her actions would be seen as a symbol of the royal family. She felt that it was so weird.

Steward Deng took very good care of Lin ngya because the prince had ordered him.

Steward Deng was asked to send Lin ngya back ho because the prince had no ti for this. Steward Deng had already t the mother and daughter of the Lin family.

Steward Deng then realized why the prince was so concerned, but he must have forgotten that Lin ngya was no pushover. It was possible that the mother and daughter of the Lins would be taught a lesson again.

“We’re going to arrive very soon, master. Look at that big willow tree behind our house. It’s still standing so upright.”

Baizhi didn’t enjoy the trip, but she was still happy when she saw the old place.

She wouldn’t give up on this place because she grew up here.

The carriage soon stopped at the gate of Marquis Zhennan’s Mansion. However, no one ca out to greet them.

Steward Deng frowned. He had had the family inford last night, but it seed that the gate was unattended at this mont.

“Be careful, master.”

Lin ngya walked to the gate of her ho with the support of Steward Deng and Baizhi.

She sneered a little bit when she thought of how inconsiderate Shangguan Qing was.

She could have prepared for this more or less, not for Lin ngya, but to save Long Tianyu’s face.

She must have heard that Long Tianyu wasn’t coming today, so she didn’t even care to pretend to be welcoming.

It would be a sha for Lin ngya if she was locked out at the gate of her own family. After all, she was the trueborn daughter of the Lin family.

Instead of getting angry, she had Steward Deng knock on the door.

“Coming... Who there?”

The door was then opened slightly, and a strange face popped out.

Lin ngya cast him a glance. It was a servant with a tapered chin.

In the past, all the gatekeepers here were veterans from her dad’s army. They were old with grey hair, but they were very reliable.

Therefore, never before had anyone ever been looked down upon here at the gate.

The new gatekeeper might be new here, so he didn’t know who Lin ngya was. But he should at least think about why the carriage of Prince Yu’s Mansion was here.

It turned out he didn’t even want to look at them twice.

He urged impatiently, “Who are you? This is the gate of Marquis Zhennan’s Mansion. How dare you knock on the door foolishly?”

Lin ngya frowned at his rude tone.

Her father once told her that a real educated family would never keep any gatekeepers or servants that looked down upon others.

Her father wasn’t away for long, but they already had such a snobbish watchdog here.

Like dog, like master.

Steward Deng didn’t even care to argue with the man.

He said collectedly, “Young man, my master is the daughter of the Lin family. Please let us through.”

Steward Deng was very polite, although he could easily get rid of the man standing before him.

The young man’s rude eyes checked Steward Deng from head to toe, looking quite disdainful.

“Lin ngwu is the only daughter of the family. Which family do you serve? You must have made a mistake!”

His words confird Lin ngya’s guess.

The gatekeeper was arranged here after her father had left. Maybe he just got here yesterday.

Soone was trying to show her severity over this place.

She could take it out on this young man, but she was certain that he would claim that he was new here and had nothing to do with Shangguan Qing and Lin ngwu.

And she would then leave a harsh impression on people for being too an to the servants.

Li ngya wasn’t patient enough to waste her ti on a gatekeeper.

“Get out of my way.”

The gentle scolding made the young servant hesitate for a while. Then he saw a woman dressed in the clothes of the palace walking toward him.

He had already seen Lin ngwu, whose charm and coquettishness were beyond his imagination.

But the young woman standing in front of him now looked so graceful and sophisticated. Her beautiful face was breathtaking.

The young gatekeeper couldn’t move his eyes away from her until his eyes felt sore.

“Ah...!”

He fell on the ground, groaning and rolling.

Lin ngya, Baizhi, and Steward Deng were standing in front of him, feeling nothing painful at all.

“Let’s go in.”

Lin ngya didn’t even want to look at him. She bypassed the groaning gatekeeper and stepped inside.

She had no rcy for those who blocked her way.

This ti, the punishnt was no more than a small rock from Steward Deng, which would only take him a few days to recover from. The punishnt would be much more severe if Lin ngya’s father was here.

Upon entering through the gate, Lin ngya found that the servants in the yard were looking at her. They looked quite embarrassed.

They had already learned their lesson just now. So they each followed one another to salute her.

“All rise. These are our lady’s New Year’s gifts to you. Things aren’t easy for her in the outside world, and she shares your feelings. Thank you for all the work you did to serve our master and our young master at ho.”

Lin ngya stared straight up, trying to avoid eye contact with anyone.

So timid servants were even quivering out of their fear due to her proud and cold look.

Shangguan Qing and Lin ngwu were the only two masters in the mansion now. However, the master and the young master once ca back and told all the servants that Lin ngya would always be the most respected lady in this family.

So of these people had ssed with Lin ngya, and now they were leaking cold sweat. They knew the gatekeeper, Liu Er, was a notorious hooligan in the Capital City.

There didn’t know why Shangguan Qing would hire him. They had seen how miserable the man ended up after he pissed Lin ngya off.

Now they found Lin ngya to be even more formidable.

Fingers crossed, they wished that they wouldn’t be the next unlucky guy.

“Thank you, my lady.”

Baizhi was standing there, generously giving away the red envelopes to all the servants.

There wasn’t much money inside them, not even enough for her to buy daily snacks. Baizhi felt so lucky to be with Lin ngya when she saw those people she used to envy beco so happy due to this little favor.

“Where’s Mrs. Lin and Miss Lin?”

All Lin ngya could see in the yard was servants. She wondered where Shangguan Qing and Lin ngwu were.

Usually, the two would be just standing here and watching the big show. Why were they acting like they had learned their lesson?

“Mrs. Lin is in Miss Lin’s room now. Miss Lin hasn’t been feeling well since this morning,” an argute woman replied imdiately with a smile.

“Not feeling well? Isn’t that too convenient?”

Lin ngya felt confused because Lin ngwu had always been healthier even than her. Why did she get sick so suddenly?

“Let go and have a look.”

She didn’t care about Lin ngwu. It was just out of curiosity.

The woman imdiately showed her the way. They passed the front yard and arrived at Tinglan Pavilion, where Lin ngwu lived.

Tinglan Pavilion was smaller but more delicate than Lin ngya’s villa. The decorations inside were extravagant. Precious and exotic treasures filled the room.

But all of these treasures would fade next to Lin ngya’s Liuxin Courtyard, where the pipes were made from warm jade.

Still, Lin ngya could tell that Lin ngwu used to live a much better life than her pushover sister.

When Lin ngya arrived at the yard, she saw Lin ngwu’s personal maid, Huan’er, waiting anxiously outside.

As Lin ngya approached, Huan’er raised her voice and called out to her.

“Respect to my lady... No respect to the concubine.”

Lin ngya looked at Huan’er. The girl was about the sa age as Baizhi, but she had already learned how to borrow the power from her masters.

The snarky maid used to bully Lin ngya and Baizhi a lot.

Now she was acting panicked, as if she was trying to hide sothing from the two intruders.

“Rise. I heard my sister is sick and my mother is here. I’ll go check on them.”

Lin ngya pretend to be walking into the room, but Huan’er imdiately blocked her, looking around anxiously.

“You’d better not... my lady. She’s really sick, and Mrs. Lin told us to make you wait here so you don’t beco infected.”

That illness seed like such a convenient excuse.

Lin ngya knew that it was not about getting sick.

She stepped forward and took a deep breath.

Then she yelled, “Mother, sister, I’ll go back to my villa. Please take care of yourself and don’t get exhausted. I want to catch up with Mother in my place if you have ti.”

Hearing Lin ngya’s words, Huan’er seed to have unloaded a burden.

She smiled and watched Lin ngya and Baizhi leave Tinglan Pavilion.

“My lady, why were you so cautious just now? We should have just rushed into the room. I don’t think they are sick at all. They were just being rude to you!”

Baizhi seed a little angry. She didn’t even notice the hint of a smile at the corner of Lin ngya’s mouth.
