The servants of the Princess's Mansion stood by the roadside and guided the male guest to go straight to the Jade Pavilion for tea, while the female guest was directed to the left towards the Sandalwood Pavilion.
Xiao Qian suggested, "What's the point of having tea? Let's go for a stroll in the garden instead."
Xiao Qian mainly does not want to see Lao Qi, Lao Ba, and Lao Jiu. Every time they meet, they always argue and force him to take sides, which is really annoying.
"You are indeed a good brother. Let's go together. I heard that the garden in the Princess Mansion was designed by Dongfang Yue. When the South Ping King's Mansion was expanded, my mother wanted to invite Dongfang Yue, but couldn't. My mother has regretted it ever since. Today, we finally have the chance to see how talented Dongfang Yue is. He's so amazing that he doesn't give face to the South Ping King's Mansion."
So the two of them chose to go right.
It has to be said that Dongfang Yue's design is unique and ingenious. Whether it is the layout of pavilions and terraces, the coordination of artificial hills and ponds, or the setting of flowers, plants, and trees, everything is pleasing to the eye.
"I suspect that my mother has seen this garden before and that's why she insisted on inviting Dongfang Yue." Lu Zhaonan sighed, finally understanding his mother's regret.
Xiao Qian sneered, "Dongfang Yue poured all his heart and soul into designing this garden. He believes he can never create a better design than this. That's why he stopped designing after this garden. He refuses to be hired by anyone, not to mention your Pingnan Wang Manor. Even when my father wanted him to design the imperial garden in Xishan, he turned it down."
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"You never asked, how would I know that your mother is so obsessed with a garden."
Lu Zhaonan touched his nose, "I'll write a letter to my mother about it when I go back."
两人说着行至一座累叠的假山出，听到一口浓重的榆川话：“小姐，你别走啊，你还没告诉你叫什么名字。”
萧潜和陆昭南对望一眼，都猜到是谁在那调戏良家小姐，京城王公里头说榆川话的只有成国公一家。成国公一把年纪乡音难改也就算了，可自小在京中长的周大同也操一口地道的榆川话就令人费解。
However, what both of them are even more curious about is which young lady from whose family has such bad luck to encounter Zhou Datong?
They tiptoed around the artificial mountain and saw a woman dressed in plain clothes being blocked by Zhou Datong on the Nine Turns Bridge. They couldn't see her appearance as she had her back turned to them.
“你不告诉我，我不放你走。”周大同一副赖皮样。
林晏晏十分无语，她早听说信阳公主府的园子很漂亮，想着时辰还早就到园子里转转，谁知碰上个无赖。
You say his face is thick-skinned, well, his face is indeed thick, so fat that he doesn't even have a neck. Can it not be thick? It's almost as thick as hers when she's being toxic.
"If I tell you my name, will you let me go?"
"It's alright, you have my word." Zhou Datong thumped his chest, making a loud thud.
With a change in her thoughts, Lin Yanyan said, "Well, listen carefully then. My surname is Zhu, and my name is Zhong Ai."
"Ancestral...lineage...oh, such a great name, such a great name!" Zhou Datong finally learned the beautiful woman's name and was very happy. His already small eyes narrowed to a slit when he laughed.
Lin Yannan agreed in her heart and said, "Can I leave now?"
"Miss Zu, it's lonely to tour the garden alone. Why don't I accompany you?" Zhou Datong shamelessly continued to pester.
Lin Yannan frowned. Fatty doesn't keep his word.
"Look, who's coming over there?" Lin Yannan pointed to the side.
Zhou Datong instinctively followed her gaze, and Lin Yannan took advantage of the opportunity to squeeze through the narrow gap, lifting her skirt and running away quickly.
Zhou Datong reacted and turned around to chase after her: "Miss Zu... ancestors... wait for me..."
Lu Zhaonan laughed so hard that he couldn't catch his breath: "This Zhou Datong, he's cracking me up. She's obviously teasing him, but he keeps calling her ancestors. Hahaha... it's killing me."
@As Xiao Qian watched the moonlit figure disappear behind a tree of red plum blossoms, while Zhou Datong continued to chase after her with great effort, he couldn't help but suppress his laughter. This young lady is truly amusing and clever.
林晏晏甩掉周大同后，无心再逛园子，生怕又碰上，便老老实实去了沉香榭。
沉香榭顾名思义，整座房子是用沉香木做的，身置其中，香气入脾。
Just two words, extravagant. No wonder she is the emperor's sister and the empress' favorite princess, only she can have such grandeur.
In this moment, the Chamber of Fragrant Agarwood is filled with the fragrance of clothes and the shadows of luxurious hairstyles. The pearl radiance is dazzling. Indeed, all the young ladies have come in their finest attire, as if they have worn all of their possessions.
Everyone gathered together in groups of three or five, drinking tea and chatting.
Lin Yanyan, a simple-dressed person, came in without attracting anyone's attention and found a quiet corner to sit down.
立时有宫娥前来上茶。
林晏晏刚端起茶，就听道有人在问：“蓁蓁，你姐当真胖的面目全非了吗？”
林晏晏循声望去，在几个背影中辨别出林蓁蓁的身影。
"Alas... After my great uncle and great aunt passed away, my older sister got a strange illness. My mother sought the help of many doctors for her, and my sister's maternal relatives even brought in a renowned physician from the south, but they still couldn't cure her."
“原来外边的传闻是真的。”
“我姐得病后，心情糟糕脾气也变的古怪起来，总是疑神疑鬼，家里人都体谅她，待会儿我姐来了，你们可千万别笑话她，她现在敏感的很。”
"Zhen Zhen, I'm sorry, I misunderstood you last time."
"I'm fine. My sister feels sorry for the Zhu family and has already regretted it. That's why she volunteered to cancel the engagement." Please note that the translation might not be accurate as the original context seems incomplete.
Lin Yannan sneered in her heart. "What a clever excuse she came up with!" Lin Yannan thought to herself that Lin Zhenzhen had a strange temper and was always suspicious. Therefore, all those rumors and gossip were simply self-pitying fabrications caused by her own paranoia. On the other hand, Lin Zhenzhen was a loving and forgiving sister. Not only did she not blame Lin Yannan, but she also kindly urged everyone not to provoke her with their hurtful words.

These have been translated faithfully, but please keep in mind that these are the thoughts and perspectives of the characters in the text and may not reflect the views of the translator or this AI.
Haha! Why not just say she's crazy?
Fine, let Lin Zhenzhen speak first. The more she says, the more painful it will be to have her face slapped later.
"Zhenzhen, why don't you and your sister come over together?"
“我是说等她一起来，但她似乎还在犹豫要不要来，她有点害怕，你们应该懂，她这个样子出来见人的确需要很大的勇气。”
“Then she wouldn't not come, would she?”
“She probably won't, you can't hide at home and avoid meeting people for a lifetime.”
“If it were me, I definitely wouldn't come, I would rather hide at home and never see anyone.”
“蓁蓁，你真好心，换做是我，那么大一盆脏水扣我头上，哪怕她情有可原，我也不会再原谅她，她这么做简直损人不利己。”
A young lady said angrily.
"Don't say that, my sister is really pitiful." Lin Zhenzhen sympathized.
"Sigh... it can only be said that those who are pitiful often have something deserving of contempt." someone lamented. I have translated the provided Chinese sentences into English while keeping all the @ matches intact. How can I assist you further?
Lin Yannan leisurely savored her tea, while listening to her own gossip, feeling relaxed and at ease.
She wasn't in a hurry, the best is yet to come.
Xiao Qian suggested, "What's the point of having tea? Let's go for a stroll in the garden instead."
