Reborn as a Landlord-Chapter 798 - 407 Grudge_1

Hearing what Lian Huahua said, Lian Manman just smiled.

"Sister Huahua, you’re joking with me again. I don’t know about other families, but if we talk about our own, about having good fortune, who could be luckier than Sister Huahua?"

The topic suddenly shifted to Lian Huahua.

Among the two people serving Lian Huahua, Aunt Sun had already gone ahead to the front courtyard to eat, while Xiao Hong was still here. With the Song Family’s servants around, how could Lian Huahua admit to having bad luck? If she did that, wouldn’t it be the same as saying the Song Family, Song Hailong was not good?

Moreover, Lian Huahua’s nature was always to seek glory; she loved to put herself on a pedestal.

Therefore, upon hearing what Lian Manman had said, a blissful smile appeared on Lian Huahua’s face.

"Third Lady Song must have just come out of her confinement, right? She doesn’t look it at all. Look at that figure, that face, just like a young lady," said Eldest Lady Huai, sitting on the kang bed and looking at Lian Huahua with a smile.

Lian Manman couldn’t help but glance at Eldest Lady Huai. Today was the first time she had met Eldest Lady Huai. Back then, following the children out of curiosity, she just wanted to see the bride of Scholar Wang’s Family, but despite being led in by Wang Youheng, she didn’t get to see the bride.

Moreover, today, it was Eldest Lady Huai who, accompanied by Scholar Wang’s wife, came to her house to congratulate her.

Eldest Lady Huai was of average height and slightly plump. She had an oval face, almond-shaped eyes, willow-leaf eyebrows, and cherry lips, her beauty was above average. However, her fair and delicate skin added greatly to her appearance, illustrating the saying that "fairness conceals flaws."

Coming from a very wealthy background, both in her maternal home and her husband’s family, Eldest Lady Huai’s makeup, attire, and accessories all portrayed her as an elegant and dignified beauty.

And from the perspective of the older generation, Eldest Lady Huai’s figure and facial features were also top-notch, believed to bring prosperity to her husband and benefit her children.

As a newlywed, Eldest Lady Huai was the most curious and focused on things like pregnancy and childbirth. Lian Huahua had just given birth, and it had only been a month or two since her confinement, but she showed no signs of swelling. Not only was her waist slender, but even her face, in Lian Manman’s eyes, seemed narrower than when she was a maiden at home.

What woman doesn’t appreciate a good figure? Take Eldest Lady Huai, for instance; she was looking forward to getting pregnant and bearing children soon but also harbored worries. She feared the discomfort of pregnancy and was anxious about restoring her figure after childbirth.

Eldest Lady Huai’s compliments were music to Lian Huahua’s ears.

"...Everything is taken care of without me worrying, my mother cherishes me, arranging everything perfectly... Just in the room attending to me, there’s a wet nurse, two maids, and two servant girls, all fearful of letting Ya Ya suffer even the slightest. My mother treasures Ya Ya so much that she can’t bear to be out of sight, getting anxious right away..." Lian Huahua laughed as she described how Old Madam Song was so good to her and treasured her daughter like a precious gem.

Ya Ya was the pet name for Lian Huahua’s newly born daughter. This pet name was given by Old Madam Song.

"The Old Madam fears that our lady will overexert herself, so she has Ya Ya raised in her own courtyard to let our lady properly recuperate," Xiao Hong chimed in with a smile.

Both Eldest Lady Huai and the Magistrate’s daughter had a servant girl attending to them. However, these two servant girls dared not interrupt while their masters were speaking.

"...My mother is so fond of Ya Ya. Whenever Ya Ya cries, she cherishes it immensely, saying it has been many years since we heard the cry of a child in the household." Lian Huahua continued happily.

Eldest Lady Huai’s lips slightly curled up in a meaningful smile. She lowered her eyelashes slightly and did not join in the conversation.

In wealthy families, it was not unusual for the daughter-in-law to not personally nurse her child after giving birth. But for the child to be taken away to be raised by the grandmother upon birth... was this truly the grandmother’s expression of affection for the daughter-in-law?

Lian Huahua’s slightly gaunt face and the highly regarded servant girls and maids assigned by her mother-in-law to attend to her every need, all of this could not be concealed by the smiles on Lian Huahua’s face or her various explanations.

There are no walls in the world that can block all winds, and besides, Thirty Mile Camp was not that far from the county seat. Eldest Lady Huai had heard about the lowly servant girl and Third Lady Song being very close sisters before marriage. The lowly servant girl ran away from the village to seek refuge with Third Lady Song. And Third Lady Song actually took in the lowly servant girl.
