Aunt An looked at Li Jian'an who was sitting on the soft couch with a solemn expression, and she always felt uneasy in her heart.

In the past, the prince often had a cold and indifferent look, but he never said a word like this.

Aunt An felt uncomfortable, and she became even more irritated when she thought of hearing Li Jianan's gentle tone when talking to Chunge while standing in the courtyard.

"Master Guo..." Aunt An felt timid, but decided to endure it for a while and make plans later. Duke Guo's temper was just that when he was angry, he must not be provoked again.

Li Jianan held a cup of tea in his hand, lowered his head and scraped the foam, ignoring Aunt An.

"My lord, I know I was wrong." As she spoke, Aunt An had already tucked her eyes with a handkerchief.

Li Jianan raised his head and asked, "Why did you come here?" His tone was very indifferent.

For what reason? For the resentment in my heart.

At first, Aunt An was full of grievances and wanted to talk to Li Jian'an. When she arrived at Meixiangyuan, Aunt An finally remembered that Li Jian'an was a person who respected the most rules.

Even when the quarrel with Chen Chunfang reached that point, Li Jian'an never allowed any concubine to challenge the majesty of Chen Chunfang's wife.

What's more, when new people come in, they are in love.

Aunt An swallowed hard as she thought about it, and a string of clear tears fell from the corner of her eyes. She sobbed like a raindrop in spring: "My lord, I shouldn't have come to the little lady's courtyard so late."

.”

When Li Jian'an saw Aunt An crying, he couldn't help but sigh, and his tone softened a little and said: "Since you know, you still dare to come here?"

Aunt An, who noticed that Li Jian'an's tone had loosened, moved a few steps forward as if inadvertently.

Li Jianan caught a glimpse of it from the corner of his eye, his face became gloomy again, he placed the teacup on the kang table next to him and said, "Why are you here?"

Aunt An stopped her movements and cried: "Master, I also know that my identity is different. I never dared to come so late to disturb the lady. But I saw the eldest young master two nights in a row, and I felt really uncomfortable."

.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Aunt An's face was already filled with tears.

When Li Jian'an heard the words eldest young master, a dazed look flashed across his face.

The child born in a miscarriage was my first flesh and blood.

When Po Wen took her out of the room and showed her to herself, she was a bloody mass with her hands and feet huddled together.

Even if he is a concubine, he is still his eldest son.

It disappeared silently. If I hadn't been busy with matters in court, maybe the child would still be fine now.

He is not as good at practicing martial arts as Brother Wen, and he is not as good at reading as Brother Wu, but at least he can call himself his father for life.

When Aunt An saw Li Jianan's dazed look, she felt happy and proud.

Sure enough, the Duke of Guo has not forgotten the eldest young master. Even if the eldest young master is gone, he can rely on this to occupy a place in the Li family.

Chen Chunfang has not dared to touch herself for so many years, isn't it because she feels guilty!

Thinking of Chen Chunfang, Aunt An felt angry again.

If Chen Chunfang hadn't occupied the seat of the royal family back then, how could the Dowager Madam and the Duke of Guo have turned a blind eye and let her go!

Under the bright light, Li Jian'an came back to his senses and saw the resentful look on Aunt An's face. Her face became uncertain, but she did not speak again.

Aunt An wiped her tears and choked up and said: "My lord, at this time in previous years, I would have invited people to come in and light the lamp for the eldest young master. But this year, my wife just came in, and I was afraid of bumping into her, so..." said

Sobbed again

, looked at Li Jian'an with full eyes and said: "My lord, I really couldn't bear it, so I rushed over in a hurry. I wanted to ask Madam for a favor. I also went back to Madam in person to tell her the whole story. This will save Madam from thinking too much."

I feel uncomfortable."

As if she was really scared, Aunt An hurriedly explained: "Of course I know that Madam is reasonable and doesn't care. She is just afraid that other people will talk too much."

Li Jian'an's expression became increasingly gloomy as Aunt An spoke.

Without noticing, Aunt An had already thrown herself in front of Li Jian'an, her hand brushed against Li Jian'an's knees, and her delicate face, half washed by tears, appeared in front of Li Jian'an's eyes.

"My lord, I know that I am being bold this time. I just ask you to agree to this matter. Even if I am punished by my wife, I will not complain at all."

Li Jian'an's eyebrows furrowed, and his eyes turned frozen as he looked at Aunt An.

But Aunt An still couldn't stop crying.

After a while, Li Jian'an suddenly said coldly: "You mean, if you don't agree to light the lamp and Madam punishes you, you will be dissatisfied and complain?"

Aunt An's hand wiping tears stopped in the air, looking at Li Jianan in panic.

"You know this is Madam's yard, yet you dare to barge in like this, and then say you didn't mean it?"

Aunt An could hear the sarcasm in these words and couldn't help but feel anxious.

What's going on? In the past, no matter what I did, as long as I talked about the eldest young master, the Duke of Guo would always show respect to him. He had never been so ruthless as now.

Aunt An opened her mouth and wanted to defend herself, but Ru Wang, who had been listening behind her, jumped out, knelt on the ground and kowtowed vigorously, saying: "My lord, it's all your slave's fault. It's all my fault, so I'm going to clean it up tonight."

I took out the swaddling clothes that my aunt had prepared for the eldest young master earlier. When my aunt saw it, she suddenly felt uneasy and couldn't help but come over."

I packed up my things at night and took out the baby's swaddling clothes just in time.

Li Jianan curled his lips, not believing what he said at all.

Aunt An was in a panic. When she saw Ru Wang coming out to take the blame, she immediately said, "Yes, Lord, I just saw the eldest young master's swaddling clothes, and that's why I lost my sense of proportion."

Li Jian'an felt a little chilled when he saw Aunt An's panicked expression and her eagerness to shirk responsibility.

This maid named Ruwang is an old lady brought over from Jiangnan by Aunt An.

Something happened, but he threw it out without hesitation.

Although he is a slave, as a master, he not only needs to use thunderous means to intimidate those below him, but he also needs to be kind and powerful at the same time.

Li Jian'an felt extremely disappointed and didn't want to talk to Aunt An anymore. She was not the mistress of the house anyway, she was just a concubine.

I received a notice that there will be power cuts in our area from 3pm to 7pm. From now on, I will update at night because I can’t get up in the morning. I usually post several chapters at around 10pm.
