Chapter 487 The young master's people should naturally be brought to you personally by the youn
At first glance, a sense of familiarity washed over me from the woman's eyes and brows.
Needless to say, this must be Madam Wu.
She marveled at the power of genetics. Of course, no one had ever told Lin Chang'er before that Wu Qingfeng looked more like his mother.
However, Madam Wu had a female appearance and was more gentle and beautiful, while Wu Qingfeng was a man and was more heroic and spirited.
In terms of age, Madam Wu was a few years older than Aunt Xu, but Madam Wu was well-maintained and they looked like twins.
Her hair was styled in a neat and dignified updo, and her headdress was not overly flamboyant, but it matched her status.
Although she recognized her, Lin Chang'er didn't rush to greet her, letting Chen Zhao chatter on, "Sister, this must be Madam Wu..."
Lin Chang'er then stepped forward and greeted her generously, "Madam, you must be tired from your journey. We have prepared a bath and meals inside. Whatever it may be, we can discuss it after you have rested."
Madam Wu smiled faintly, returned the greeting, and, with Chen Zhao's warm guidance, was helped into the room by a nanny.
Lin Chang'er looked closely and realized that Madam Wu had only brought one nanny with her this time; there were no servants or maids at all.
This surprised her somewhat.
After they were settled inside, Old Madam Bai found her and said, "Chang'er, don't blame Ayi for not being warm towards you. She's always been aloof and doesn't meddle or cause trouble unless you're very close to her."
Mrs. Wu's best friend is Huo Lingyi; Ayi is her nickname.
Lin Chang'er waved her hand. She wasn't a Renminbi, and there was Wu Qingfeng between them. What was that saying again?
In every mother-in-law's eyes, her daughter-in-law is there to steal her son away.
Although she and Wu Qingfeng haven't gotten to that point yet.
Therefore, she never expected to become close friends with Madam Wu from the beginning.
However, fearing that Old Madam Bai might overthink things, she asked her again, "Madam Wu is new here and doesn't know us well. Qingfeng is still on duty, so we'll have to trouble you to take good care of her."
Grandma Bai sighed and scolded, "You child, why are you still saying such polite things?"
Lin Chang'er smiled slightly, "It's never a bad thing to be polite. By the way, our whole family lives in the backyard. I was thinking of having Aunt Xu and Madam Wu live with you in the second courtyard. What do you think?"
Grandma Bai nodded. "I've already spoken to Ayi, and she has no objections. She's just a bit indifferent, not picky. You don't need to be so careful in everything you do. Otherwise, wouldn't it be like bringing a goddess home to worship? How will you be in charge of the household in the future?"
Lin Chang'er chuckled, "No, it's not that. It's just that Madam Wu is new here, and Qingfeng can't go to pick her up. It's understandable that she's unhappy. We can't let these trivial matters make her unhappy when she gets home. Only when the household is stable can Qingfeng do his job well. Don't you think so?"
Grandma Bai laughed along, tapping her head with her finger, "You little rascal, Qingfeng is truly blessed."
While they were chatting and laughing, Madam Wu had already bathed, changed her clothes, and redone her makeup. She was being helped out of the house by Granny Yang.
Hearing Lin Chang'er's conversation with Old Madam Bai, Madam Wu stopped in her tracks.
"Madam, shall we go over there?" asked Granny Yang.
Madam Wu shook her head, "I'm not going."
After pausing for a moment, she asked again, "Granny Yang, have I been too cold to that child?"
Granny Yang smiled and said, "Madam and Miss Lin have just met, so there's no reason for you to be so open and honest with each other. If you really do that, you might just scare Miss Lin away."
Madam Wu nodded gently. "Never mind, it won't be too late to have a proper talk with her after Qingfeng returns and formally introduces her to me."
Granny Yang agreed, saying, "Madam's thinking is reasonable. The young master's people should naturally be brought to you by the young master himself for it to be valid."
Madam Wu hummed in agreement. "Have all the gifts been prepared?"
Granny Yang hurriedly replied, "You can rest assured that this old servant will handle things properly!"
Madam Wu nodded again, gazing at the doorway in the distance, "I wonder when Feng'er will be able to return from her shift."
Granny Yang comforted her, "Madam, this old servant has something to say, but I don't know if I should?"
"Tell me."
Granny Yang cleared her throat and said solemnly, "Madam, you have been trapped in the inner quarters for so many years. You have finally escaped that mansion. The young master is also filial and willing to help you. Now that you have escaped that predicament, you can see the world outside. Do you still want to confine yourself to this place?"
