Transmigrated As My Former Uncle's Sweetheart
Chapter 413: The Honor Should Have Been HersChapter 413: The Honor Should Have Been Hers
If the emperor was so easy to deal with, Dashang would not have experienced it today.
…
The Dowager Duchess’ birthday was approaching. Lu Liangwei was supposed to be very busy these days. However, with Zhao Gan leaving the palace with the officials of the Ministry of Rites, she saved herself much trouble and was fully dedicated to preparing for her grandmother’s big day. The Dowager Duchess lacked nothing but admired the Buddhist scriptures. She then decided to hand-copy a part of it for her. Besides…
These days she took the chance to visit Tianzhu Mountain. Fortunately, Master Shang has not gone on his voyage yet, so she requested some things from him. The servants of the Grand Duke Family have been busy for days. After they refurbished the mansion, it was finally the birthday of the Dowager Duchess.
On the day of celebration, all the people who came to give their wishes to the Dowager Duchess flooded the palace road outside. The number of people coming in was endless, so many that all the palace guards were fully occupied with controlling the guests. Lu Liangwei was also really busy herself. Although she did not have to personally entertain everybody, she could barely handle those who were trying to gain favor from her for being the future empress.
After she gave the Dowager Duchess her birthday gift, the people immediately gathered around her and clustered her in the middle of the crowd.
Lu Liangwei barely knew any of them, but that did not hinder them from their desire of building a friendship with her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtA nicer way to describe this would be that they were trying not to reveal their true intentions.”Second Miss, your makeup looks gorgeous today.” In reality, she did not even apply any powder.
“Second Miss, that hairpin of yours looks too beautiful! Where’d you get it made?” This hairpin she chose was unremarkable.
“Second Miss, this dress that you’re wearing is super elegant. I want one too! Which embroidery made this fine piece?”
Only the heavens knew that Lu Liangwei casually picked a light-pink dress only to commemorate the celebration, but the style was rather simple. “The Dowager Duchess sure knows how to cultivate proper upbringing to educate a granddaughter like this. How outstanding! Unlike my family…”
Upon hearing this, the noisy crowd went silent for a moment and glanced at whoever blurted that out.
“Madam Lin is just kidding,” the Dowager Duchess said and broke out a kind smile as if she missed the subtle satire in Madam Lin’s words.
Madam Lin sensed the tension and said, “I was wrong,” she awkwardly pointed out. “This is Madam’s big day, I shouldn’t have…”
“There is no problem, Madam Lin. Don’t take it personally. By the way, I heard you’re pregnant. You should sit down. Lan Xin, get a chair for Madam Lin.”
“Yes, Madam,” said Aunt Lan as she quickly fetched a chair and gestured to Madam Lin to take her seat.
“Thank you, Madam.” Madam Lin was flattered.
The Dowager Duchess let out a soft smile then said to the crowd, “Don’t keep yourselves standing, have a seat,” she looked towards Lu Liangwei and told her, “Wei Wei, come to grandma.”
Lu Liangwei let out a subtle sigh of relief and quickly walked over, taking a seat beside her grandmother.
The other girls who were trying to befriend her earlier then paused their acts, but the words they said did not stop flattering Lu Liangwei.
Lu Liangwei was immersed in awkwardness and embarrassment. Don’t these people have better things to do?
It was her grandmother’s birthday but why were they surrounding her instead?
As soon as Lu Yunshuang stepped into the banquet hall, all she saw was the crowd of ladies bombarding Lu Liangwei with their endless chatter.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt was as if striking up a real conversation with her would earn them glory.
When they noticed her entering the room, the sounds of chatter from the crowd faded.
“The Crown Princess is here.”
Not knowing who said that, the crowd that froze for a moment came to their realization and rose to bow to the Crown Princess.
Lu Yunshuang clenched tightly onto her handkerchief while politely greeting the crowd, “Ladies, needn’t be too courteous.”
As the last tone of her words faded, everyone turned their attention away from her and channeled their earnest look to Lu Liangwei.
The looks on their faces left Lu Yunshuang so utterly frustrated she could crush a silver tooth with her jaw.
An honor as such should have belonged to her.
If it was not for Lu Liangwei, those people would have ushered her in at the moment she entered the hall.
