The expression on Chun Xi's face suddenly became ugly. In Chun Xi's eyes, both Aunt Mei and Cloud Piercer were weak and could be easily bullied. She had never thought that these two people would one day put on such a show of force for her.

No matter who Cloudfall's mother was, she was still someone who had been dead for a long time.

The more Chun Xi thought about it, the more indignant he became. He then said without any hesitation, "All the servants in the house are under the supervision of the Second Madam now. Third Miss doesn't have the qualifications to discipline this servant!"

"Is that so?" Cloudfall raised his eyebrows and sneered, "Second Aunt helping my late princess mother to take control of the house of the Marquis isn't bad. But don't forget, Lady Shu is still Lady Shu. If we are to be honest, the one most qualified to discipline you servants is the old mistress of the Tzu An Palace. Since you feel that I do not have the qualifications to discipline you, come with me to the madame's side and speak. "

A hint of fear suddenly surfaced in Chun Xi's heart. She was very clear on the madame's methods.

The old mistress' most important point was the difference in rank.

Chun Xi had also heard that the reason why Cloudburst Mountain was able to return to the house of the Marquis was due to the madame's benevolence. She had personally made the decision.

If this matter were to come to the front of her eyes, even if she didn't mind helping Chun Xi, she would take it lightly.

However, if he were to stab right in front of the madame, he was sure that he would end up in a miserable state.

Just as Cloudy Clouds had returned to the manor, there was the madame. Pet. Those who cared for him were bound to be a bit more domineering.

After a while, when the old mistress' freshness was over, she would naturally have something nice to look at.

Chun Xi was a smart girl. When he saw this point, he immediately softened and smiled, "Third Miss, please forgive me. This servant knows my mistake. It was because this servant was blind and had offended Third Young Miss. These years, Third Miss didn't walk around the mansion often. This servant was stupid and didn't have the time to react. Please forgive me, Third Miss. It was almost the turn of the year and the madame was not feeling well. It was best not to bother her with such a trivial matter. This servant has done something wrong and will accept your punishment. "

As Chun Xi spoke, he knelt at the entrance of the Plum Garden with a humble smile.

At this moment, all of Cloudfall's thoughts were on Aunt Mei. Seeing that Chun Xi was being honest, he didn't pursue the matter anymore and instead said casually, "Since you know you're wrong, just kneel there." No permission is allowed, and I'm not allowed to get up! "

Chun Xi hated Cloudy Heavens so much that his teeth itched, but he had no choice but to kneel down in accordance with his father's instructions.

It wasn't until Cloudfall and Aunt Mei had disappeared from Chun Xi's sight that Chun Xi spat angrily. He said in a dirty voice, "Pfft, how many days do you think you can be proud of having a father and no mother? "When the time comes, don't get in my hands …"

Even though he was venting out, even if he was extremely unwilling, Chun Xi still had to obediently kneel on the ice-cold snow.

The skies were not beautiful, and snowflakes began to gradually float on the previously clear and sunny skies. Soon, large flowers began to bloom on the snowflakes, looking like goose feathers.

As soon as they entered the hall, they heard the rustling of snow. When they turned around, Roughpeak pulled open the cotton curtain that blocked the entrance and took a look. He sneered. "Slut, you've got a day for you. That's right."

At first glance, Roughpeak's words sounded harsh, causing Aunt Mei to frown slightly.

However, her stance was extremely awkward and she did not have the qualifications to reprimand Cloudfall.

When she thought about how difficult it had been for Roughpeak to live alone in his own courtyard for the past five years, Aunt Mei's heart softened. Now that she had softened, she personally carried the blanket made from ferret hair to Cloudfall Mountain and covered it with it. She then placed the small copper stove on top of the stove with a thin cotton mattress and said, "It's snowing, so it's cold outside. Little prefecture lord, please keep it warm for now." It's going to be New Year soon, so don't let it get cold. "

Lady Mei then walked quickly to the other side and carefully took out some fruits. She placed them by the side of the carriage and said, "These fruits were delivered yesterday morning. They are still fresh." There was also a snack that I personally made. I remember that the Canton Princess loved it the most when she was young. I'll go get it. "

Cloudmist saw Aunt Mei spinning like a top, filling up the space around her. He didn't stop her and let her go.

About a quarter of an hour later, Aunt Mei came over with plum blossom. She stood there awkwardly and smiled, "This is all I have. Little Princess, please don't mind them. You can use some of them to make a trip to my Plum Garden. Although it was impossible to make it in time for the princess, in the end … In the end, it was also due to my good intentions … "

At the mention of the princess, Aunt Mei's eyes reddened and her throat choked with sobs. She turned her back and wiped away her tears.

As he gazed at the familiar decorations of the Plum Garden, he smiled and said, "Aunt, you're very considerate. However, if mother were to see how depressed you look now, you'd probably be sad, right?"

Aunt Mei opened her mouth but no words came out. She stood by the side with her head lowered and tears streaming down her face.

"In all honesty, this aunt is the first close friend my mother has ever had," Cloudburst said in a clear and bright voice. That year, his mother had married from the Residence of Duke at the end of the capital, bringing along Senior Servant Ding and his concubine. I heard that mother and aunt grew up together. Senior Servant Ding acted as if she was an elder taking care of her mother's daily life. She had done a great service. More importantly, the aunt was like a sister accompanying her mother. This allowed her mother to feel the warmth of a home in Ye City, which was very far away from the capital. Even before her mother died, she was still muttering to herself, "In this life, the person who will let you down the most is you, Aunt."

Auntie Mei's tears began to flow faster and faster. She choked with sobs, "I've let down the princess …"

Cloudfall's face was filled with grief as he shook his head and said, "Aunt was wrong. The one Aunt has let down the most is not Mother. It's the aunt herself! "

Aunt Mei raised her head in shock. When she saw Cloud Walk's extremely serious expression, a puzzled look appeared on her face.

"Before my mother died, she knew that when she first arrived in Ye City, she had a deep attachment to her father, so she arranged for her aunt to go to her father's side and help her take care of him, take care of me, and take care of the family," he said softly. But what had Aunt done all these years? My father was far away at the border and no one cared for me. I was alone in the exile, and the entire house fell into the hands of Second Uncle and Second Aunt. Does Aunt still think she's worthy of me? "

A pained expression was revealed on Aunt Mei's face as she said, "Princess, can it be that you're not blaming me for having ill intentions towards the Marquis?"

A sneer formed on the corner of his mouth as he sneered, "You and mother have actually become so distant from each other? From beginning to end, my mother has always wanted to fulfill your infatuation. Otherwise, do you think you can become the Mei of this manor's courtyard? "

Auntie Mei stared at Cloud Walk in a daze as she murmured, "That's true. That's true. I've misunderstood the princess all these years …"

"Yes, you misunderstood mother." That's why I failed to live up to your love for my father and my mother's dying request. Most importantly, he failed to live up to his good youth! After his mother left, his father never faked his lust for other girls, but only towards you. But you spent a whole five years in guilt and confusion, and missed the chance to go from aunt to marquis' wife. I missed the chance to stand by my father's side. "

Aunt Mei burst into tears and said, "I understand what the young prefecture lord is saying. I understand it all." But in my heart, I really can't get through this. Back then, if it wasn't for me misunderstanding the princess, with my medical skills, I would have done my best to extend the princess' life. "It's not like we should let the princess..."

He took out the silk and handed it to Aunt Mei. "It's been so many years. Aunt still hasn't put it down. Don't you understand?"

Aunt Mei's eyes were misty as she watched Yun Wefeng walk down the path with tears in her eyes. She pursed her cherry-like lips, afraid that she was going to make more mistakes.

Auntie Mei's guilt towards the princess gradually shifted onto Cloudfall Ridge. When faced with it, she was usually filled with guilt.

Now that Cloudmist Mountain had gained some semblance of the princess from back then, it made Aunt Mei feel as if she was facing a princess from back then.

Under the gaze of Cloud Pier's burning gaze, Aunt Mei finally said softly, "Please enlighten me, young prefecture lord!"

"Duke Yuan Palace is the Divine Doctor's manor. Although mother's medical skills are inferior to Aunt's, it's not like Mother isn't aware of her own body's condition. Whenever there was a chance for her to survive, her mother would spare no cost in order to survive. Even if he went to the Prince's Mansion to seek medical help for this, it would still work. Why did Mother still go in the end? " Cloudburst took a deep breath and said solemnly, "The reason is because Mother knows that there is no hope for us to return to Heaven. That's why everything was arranged in advance and the entire duke's manor was handed over to aunt. "

"This... "This..." Aunt Mei had always been a thoughtful person. She had never been able to understand a single thing before. Now that she had been enlightened under the guidance of Roughpeak Cloudburst, she was naturally clear and trembling all over. He sat on the chair and muttered, "Look at myself. What have I done all these years? Princess, I have let you down... What can I do to atone for my sins? "

Unknowingly, in Aunt Mei's heart, Cloudfall had already become Roughpeak's mistress. She looked earnestly at Cloudfall, hoping that Cloudfall could answer her questions for her.

When the princess arranged Mei Ying to be an aunt, she naturally had her own reasons for doing so. She felt that Mei Ying would be able to shoulder such a heavy responsibility and would be able to serve as a protective umbrella for Yun Meng Ai Hui.

Therefore, the first thing Cloudmist did when he returned to the manor was to find Aunt Mei and relieve the knot in her heart.

Now that Auntie Mei has changed, Cloudburst was naturally happy. He put his hand on her cold hand and said, "Mother hopes you can take good care of this family in her place. You should naturally fulfill your mother's wish. "

When Aunt Mei saw Cloud walking out of Roughpeak, she seemed to see the princess of that year. She nodded without the slightest hesitation and said, "We will do as the young princess commands." After being muddled for so many years, it was time for me to wake up. The first person to get rid of it is Spring Joy, who is kneeling by the door! "
