Even before I entered the room, I already knew what was going on.

The main room was completely silent. He couldn't even see the figure of a servant girl. The side yard was very noisy, and the young ladies' loud voices, the low exhortations of their mothers, and the crisp sounds of shattering porcelain were all heard by me along with the whispers of the servants and women, all of which entered my ears through the cool evening breeze.

I couldn't help but sigh.

This is the third time this month that I've seen my grandmother's small, secluded courtyard filled with so many people.

It's precisely because I've seen this kind of situation so many times that even the maidservants by my side found it hard to arouse panic.

As long as I look behind me, Lan Li would already understand. She shouted loudly, "Is this how you usually treat people? "My dear sister-in-law, all of you are people with face. Could it be that you want to step on my head to commit a crime because you see my face?"

At this moment Lan Ya was standing behind her.

At first the mothers did not hear the sound of the orchids, but some of the standing people pushed their way through the opening in front of them and shouted, "Hey! Sigh! You guys go ahead, what's going on inside? "

Lan Su had always been a shrewd person. Now that she saw these retarded servants rejecting my face and injuring her body, she couldn't help but get angry. She walked forward and gave the servant woman a kick on her knee. After kicking her down onto the ground, he crossed his hands and glared at her while fiercely cursing a few words.

Even so, it took the servant woman half a day before she found out about the incident. She lowered her head in fear and backed off to the side.

At the head of the line I saw the sister who had just entered my yard today.

The little girl seemed to know that she had done something inappropriate, so she quietly lowered her head and squeezed to the back of the crowd.

I couldn't help but be secretly disappointed. I thought that this child had grown up with the shrewd and worldly Shopkeeper Du. Naturally, he knew what he had to do to look down on and what he had to avoid.

He originally wanted to teach her a lesson and place her at his side, but now he felt that it was better to stay by his side and properly train her for a few days.

I beckoned to her and pointed to Lan Li's back, indicating that she should stand behind Lan Li and learn from her.

At first, the little girl was a little scared, but when she saw that there wasn't much anger on my face, she slowly walked over.

It seemed like he would have to learn these rules later!

After leaving Lan Li to scold me, I hurriedly led Green Cock and Mother Song and a few others behind me to the house. There was no one at the outer room that Aunt Chen normally lived in. However, the red satin opera of the baby was still half bent over the bed. It looked like it had just fallen asleep on top of the bed, not even having been folded up.

I went to feel it. The weather had gradually turned cold in the autumn evening, but the bed was still warm. Obviously, I had just left.

Since Aunt Chen's body temperature had stayed in this room, it was obvious that her mother had only just entered.

I couldn't help but feel a little better. I ordered the women to wait in the outer room. I only brought Mama Song and the Green Bandits to enter the house.

As expected, the room was a mess. His mother stood beside the empty rack with tears all over her face. Her eyes were red and her voice hoarse. She was still shouting at her grandmother. As for Grandma, she was dressed in a purple dress. With Mother Du and Hong Chang helping her, she sat in an armchair and drank tea with a big smile on her face!

"You little beast!" When my mother saw me come in, she opened her mouth and scolded me, "I've raised you for twelve years and you're actually helping outsiders to harm me!"

Yeah, didn't you raise me for 12 years just to give me to an outsider as a present?

Oh, no, fifteen years!

I laughed self-deprecatingly. Perhaps I had already completely accepted the matter of my rebirth, but I would still occasionally forget my previous life.

But at midnight, I could still feel the new life growing in my stomach without a sound.

When he woke up, all that was left was a few drops of tears on his cheeks and a wave of resentment in his chest.

"Tell me, are you in charge of matters within the clan right now? "Then where did you hide that bitch?" My mother suddenly wanted to reach out and grab me, but her feet slipped and she tripped over the broken pieces of porcelain she had dropped. If it weren't for my two mothers supporting her, she would have fallen to the ground.

The moment he stood still, his mother subconsciously touched his stomach which had yet to swell. Her face was filled with worry.

This is what a mother would do to her own child, and I … In his previous life, he was nothing more than a chess piece in the eyes of his mother.

This scene stung my eyes, so I could only silently pace forward a few steps and stand behind my grandmother.

It was at this time of sunset that tens of thousands of rays of light shone in from behind her mother, outlining her somewhat emaciated figure. Her face was blurred, and her figure stood there like a piece of paper, unspeakably lonely.

Originally, I wanted to blurt out some sarcastic words, but the words turned around in my heart before retracting them. I silently lowered my head and adjusted my sleeve.

Grandmother raised her head and looked at me deeply. There was surprise, joy and love in her eyes.

I slightly ridiculed in my heart. Grandmother must have thought that I would lay my cards on the table today, so she silently waited for me to come back, right?

Why else would his mother be so indifferent when she was speaking so arrogantly and breaking a vase on the floor?

What a good grandmother!

At this time, they actually wanted to protect that fake affection?

He didn't dare to face the bad behavior of his son's wife and only thought of putting his own granddaughter, who he cared for every day in pain, as a target in front of him?

At that moment, all the emotions I had felt from this kind old lady disappeared.

I pursed my lips into a smile, leaned towards my mother and drank a cup of tea. After clearing my throat, I said,

My mother thought I was a woman in a pavilion, and my grandmother and mother were still there, so why should I be the housekeeper?" His mother also thought that Aunt Mo was a hookup girl who was born in the market, so how could she enter the palace with the Third Young Master? How can a mother think of someone who is always confined to bed, jealous of a childless legal wife, and a strong and healthy wife who is worthy of having outstanding children, who should be the one to take charge of this family?

The room suddenly became silent.

A tear hung on the side of her mother's white cheek before it could fall. With a sudden change of expression, the tear slipped diagonally into the folds of her dress and disappeared without a trace.

I was able to run the house because of Grandmother's support, and Mother was unable to interfere because of filial piety; Aunt Mo was able to enter the house because of Father's love, and Mother was unable to refuse because of maternal love; and the last sentence implied that her greatest reliance was now quietly resting in her stomach, needing her meticulous care.

Apparently, my mother understood my words. After a moment of contemplation, she burst into even louder sobs, but no more curses were spoken.

"Mother, be careful of your body. If you have anything to say, you can just wait for Father to come back."

Think about the usual father's love for his mother, and how much it was because of the guilt he felt for this married woman who had shared hardships with him while he was out in the open.

Looking at the decadent and despondent look on my mother's face, I couldn't help but sigh secretly. Hate people often had pitiful looks.

She could convince herself that this was just a tool to give birth to a child, but how could she help herself when she faced Aunt Mo, who was as beautiful as a flower, and her three concubine sons, who were similar in appearance to her father?

Perhaps the father to the mother was not only her husband, but also her lover, her lover, who, as a wife, could tolerate her husband's concubines, but as a lover could not allow him to love anyone else half-heartedly.

Seeing the light in my mother's eyes slowly fading away while she was standing straight in front of me, I couldn't help but feel a little sad when I finally bent over and hugged her.

Maybe it was because of Aunt Chen that made my father feel guilty, and I spent more time in my mother's room, or maybe it was some other change that made my mother pregnant, but this child didn't appear in my previous life until I was poisoned to death by my mother. However, this child did not exist in his previous life. In this life, this child's appearance was already too late. I have already linked up with King Qi. Not to mention stopping at this point, King Qi would never allow it. Even the settled situation in our family would never stop with this.

It was already too late.

There will always be a reward for good and evil. Seeing that this woman owes me her life, I will have to rely on my own life to repay her debt.

It's just that the child is innocent. It's best to wait until the mother gives birth to a baby before making a move!

"In the end, mother is the mistress of the family, the wife of father's hair, and now … "Why can't we wait until father comes back?"

My soft whisper wafted around the room, not like consolation but like a sigh.

In the first sentence, he reminded her that since the dynasty began, the heir to the family throne was not to be passed on. In the second sentence, he reminded her that since then, her father had always been unfaithful to her.

However, my mother was still crying, as if she didn't understand what I had said.

In my heart, I know that what grieves my mother isn't the reputation of those families, but that the person that she trusted wholeheartedly, after all, has betrayed a relationship between them …

In this kind of situation, he could only heal himself. No matter what others said, it would be useless.

I called out to the people outside, and a few sturdy women quickly came in, bowed their heads, and waited for my orders.

"Mama Cai, Mama Qi, please follow mother's two mothers to escort mother back!"

The two good-natured but intelligent looking mothers simultaneously squatted down to answer and then accompanied their mother out the door.

"You guys wait in the yard. I have something to ask you later."

I waved my hand towards the rest of the wives. Those wives' faces turned green, and they silently withdrew themselves from the room.

The rest were sent to guard my mother's yard, while the two mothers were sent to watch the night in my grandmother's yard. They knew in their hearts that if I didn't reprimand them directly, they would definitely reprimand me in the future. They were all unsettled, and even though they wanted to plead, they didn't dare to do so.

Grandmother looked at her mother who was working for her and smiled, but did not say anything.

Most of them were in Grandmother's room, and some of them were even her grandmother's beloved items. They were originally placed in Grandmother's room, but this time, they had been specially moved here, and now that the lights had been turned on, Grandmother clearly had not had time to eat since her mother was just about to leave.

"To see what's going on in the kitchen?" I smiled at Hong Chang and instructed Lu Kui: "Go and tell Lan Li to tell some of the girls to come in and sweep the floor, and then pack the things that have been lost. Later, you will follow the instructions and deliver them to us."

The green bandit quickly curtsied and assented, then quickly followed Hong Chang out the door.

Grandmother smiled and asked me about my visit to the Wen Mansion one by one, then asked about the follow-up to that matter with Wen Cheng's ancestor. She commented on it nonchalantly without mentioning the incident at all.

I couldn't help but smile. Just like the time I went to visit Aunt Mo, Grandmother didn't mention anything.

I secretly laughed in my heart, although "do not be silly not to be an Aon", you can see that grandmother so clearly pretend to see the loss of the family is really not many!

Those who didn't know would think that she had some prejudice against this son of hers, which was why she was deliberately raising him askew. She didn't even hesitate to give him a chance to live his last years peacefully.

I couldn't help but think of the thin letter that Shopkeeper Xiao had personally given me.

The plain white paper is written in the best Pine Mist Ink. The handwriting is a type that normal readers would write on. I carefully kept it at the bottom of the embroidered box at the end of the cabinet. On it is a Nine Appearances Exquisite Lock that can only be unlocked when there are nine words aligned.

There was a short paragraph written inside:

"The Yang family's Grand Master, the Dou family, has a virtuous name. Xu Zhou, the eldest son and daughter of the second house of the Dou family, ranked eleventh in the Dou family. One of them married the Hu Clan's son of the salt merchant, one of them was born on the local Bi Luo case, one of them was born with a son of a concubine, one of them died young when he was ten years old, none of them had a son. "

I have read this note a hundred times.

It seemed ordinary, but there were many doubts in it.

The thing that shocked me the most was the phrase 'none of you have children'.

What in the world could make Grandmother's room so full of girls and boys? What could cause a ten-year-old child to drown in the water? And why were the five concubines above married to either rich or rich people? What would result in the daughter of this branch of a famous family only having the heir of this child?

The Dou family was a family of the Prominent Class in Jiangnan. How could they let their own daughter marry a businessman?

As for her mother, she was not only similar to her grandmother, but also to her father. In fact, she was very similar to Princess Honghua, who was sitting in the clouds. Only his father's appearance was similar to his grandmother's.

Could there be another sealed history behind this?

As I walked further and further away, more and more fog appeared in front of me. In the past, those who seemed to have gotten to know each other would also no longer be able to make out their facial expressions.
