This is the best grandpa in Mingxuan, but what are you going to ask her to do?" Cough cough. Although she had always done things with a sense of propriety, having someone backing her up felt really awesome.

Lu Jinnian took a deep breath of the cool morning air and sneezed.

Rubbing her nose, Lu Jinnian looked at Lu Jinghui's coarse shirt, "But grandfather, you can't just wear this to the Duke of Guo's mansion. Mu Qi, go to Great General's courtyard and get grandfather some suitable clothes to change into. I'll first bring Qingwan and Qingyao to report to aunt about the matter of going to Wu Steel Manor."

"As the direct daughter of Great General's house, you don't have to report to an aunt to come in or out." Lu Jinghui frowned and muttered something under his breath. He looked at Lu Qingwan and Lu Qingyao and didn't say anything further.

Mrs Shen's Hibiscus Courtyard.

Lu Jinnian looked at the tightly shut gate and smiled brilliantly. "Little Sister Qingwan, what should I say with what little sister's words? In the morning, close the gate and don't let us in, and don't allow us to send people in to report. Also, Great General is not in the residence, if this sort of thing were to be spread outside, what would happen?

The alluring voice that followed caused Lu Qingwan's heart to shudder uncontrollably. "Maybe mother likes to sleep."

How could she be afraid of ghosts? I'm still many years away from being a ghost, and I'm not even afraid of ghosts, so why would I be afraid of you? Someone, open the door.

Lu Qingwan's face changed, and she subconsciously wanted to stop him, but Lu Jinnian interrupted her, "Just now in front of my courtyard, Sister Qingwan acted as if it was something shameful to prevent you from entering the courtyard. Why is it that she has a different attitude towards auntie?"

"No, it's not …"

Lu Qingwan was in a difficult situation. She wanted to find Lu Jinnian's things, but her underlings really didn't find anything. As the direct descendant of Great General's house, the furnishings in the yard were too simple and crude.

Other than the beds, tables, chairs, and a few books, there was nothing else in the garden. If she really stopped Lu Jinnian from opening Mrs Shen's courtyard gate, it would seem like she did it on purpose.

In any case, she thought there wouldn't be anything in her aunt's yard. At most, Lu Jinnian wanted to get back at them because someone had entered her yard, so she didn't try to stop them.

Lu Jinnian was satisfied. "Since that's not the case, then open the door."

Lu Qingyao looked at Lu Jinnian doubtfully. If she remembered correctly, Lu Jinnian had never stepped into Mrs Shen's courtyard and suddenly came to visit … "Elder sister, this aunt is an elder, don't you think …"

Lu Jinnian glared at her and smiled without saying a word.

In Liangjing City, Lu Qingwan was known as Qin Jue, which showed that her zither skills were truly exquisite. In addition to her gentle temperament, and in front of Fourth Prince, Lu Qingwan was ranked in the front row.

On the other hand, when it came to Lu Qingyao, she was much more obscure. When it came to her, the better would say that she was Lu Qingwan's younger sister, while the worse would say that she was the ugliest younger sister.

However, Lu Qingyao was smarter than Lu Qingwan right now. She could hide her talent and was the most dangerous person because she might appear out of nowhere and stab someone.

"It's precisely because Aunt is an elder that she wouldn't blame us juniors for opening the gates of the courtyard." Lu Jinnian said with a smile. While she was speaking, the doors to the Hibiscus Courtyard had already been opened.

In the center of the courtyard, in a small pond, there were a few small red carp that were puffing bubbles around the withered lotus leaves.

Not to mention anything else, the decorations of the entire courtyard were very artistic.

Lu Jinnian rubbed her chin. "Aunt's taste is quite good."

Lu Qingwan and Lu Qingyao looked at each other. They couldn't tell if Lu Jinnian's words were sincere or fake. After all, the direct daughter's yard was like that, while Aunt's was a little too luxurious …

Lu Jinnian didn't pay attention to their thoughts as she pointed in a direction. "Aunt isn't in the courtyard. She should still be in her room. Come, let's go take a look."

"Yes."

Lu Qingwan answered and almost bit her tongue.

Even though Lu Jinnian was the direct daughter, she had never treated Lu Jinnian as her own daughter. Why did she suddenly respond like she was submitting, especially the aura from Lu Jinnian's body, as if it was natural for her to obey.

Lu Qingyao also felt the same way. It was just that she was not affected as much as Lu Qingwan, so she didn't say anything.

How could they know what the battle-hardened Great Commander Lu had experienced? With just this little aura, they would have been shocked. If they really used the aura they had on the battlefield, they would have been scared to tears …

As soon as they arrived at Mrs Shen's room, they heard a lively mumble of mumbles coming from the door. The experienced servants behind them could already tell what the sound was. They could not help but blush and whisper to each other.

"Madam, this is …" Did Great General come back at night? "

"How many times have you seen Great General come to the Hibiscus Courtyard these past ten years? "When did you spend the night here?"

"Then this is …"

"Shh, the ladies don't understand, it's wrong to say more, shut up."

"…"

Although Lu Qingwan and Lu Qingyao were still young, they were vaguely aware of what was going on when they heard so many people. Their faces stiffened as they unconsciously looked towards Lu Jinnian.

Lu Jinnian tilted her head and spread out her hands. "My two little sisters, why are you looking at me? Aren't we here to look for the concubine? Why aren't you going in at the door?"

"This …" Lu Qingwan hesitated. If she pushed open the door and saw a stranger in Mrs Shen's room, what would she do? But if she didn't open the door, this voice couldn't say that Mrs Shen was okay.

"There's something wrong with the voice in the aunt's room. It's better if we go in and have a look. If we get sick, we can call a doctor."

With that, Lu Jinnian pushed open the door without giving them any time to hesitate.

The people in the room heard the sound of the door opening, and their moans became softer.

Lu Jinnian didn't care, she started walking in the direction of the bed, "What's wrong with Aunt, but she's not feeling well?" Do you need me to ask a doctor to take a look for you? "

The people behind looked at each other in dismay. When they saw that the young miss had gone in, they waited for a long time, but no sound came out. Only then did they dare to go in.

Mrs Shen was lying on the bed with a blanket over her body, her face flushed red. Although she was not young, she had always been taking care of herself, and her charm was still there. When she looked up and saw so many people enter the room, including her two daughters, she sat up wrapped in a blanket and angrily said, "Who allowed you to come in, get out of here."

The crowd was stunned in disbelief. There were no strangers here? Only Mrs Shen herself was in this state …

Mrs Shen moved and an eggplant with unknown liquid on it rolled down from the bed.

Mrs Shen became even more agitated. "I told you to scram, did you hear that?!"

Everyone was enlightened, as if a new world's door had been opened.

Madam, they know Great General is very cold to you, but you don't have to... Uh-huh.
