The mama straightened her back and didn't have the slightest smile on her face. She stared sternly at Lian Feng Yue as an irresistible pressure was released from her emaciated body.
Lian Feng Yue's face alternated between green and white. Her nails that were covered with liquid essence entered her palm and there was even some blood coming out of her lips.
He was staring at Gu Qingyi with eyes that were filled with fear.
"What mama said is right. I know my status is low. But the so-called state laws, the family rules, all these years since his sister went out, the prince day and night outside toiling. As someone close to the prince's pillow, I don't have the ability to share his burden. For such trivial matters in the mansion, I really don't want you to put in so much effort for me. Besides, this is our duty as women, isn't it? " Taking a deep breath, Lian Feng Yue stood up straight and smiled faintly. Although Gu Yanshui rarely inquired about the affairs of the estate these past few years, it was not as easy for an aunt like her to control the internal affairs of the estate.
"You …" The mama's expression darkened. She never expected that Lian Feng Yue would react so quickly.
No matter how extraordinary her identity was, she was still just a servant. The only thing she could rely on was the royal family's prestige. Princess Anping had already passed away for many years, so how many people could still remember those years? Even if he said it out loud, it would only be a temporary conversation.
And this woman, Feng Yue, was Gu Yinian's woman no matter what.
"Fine, fine, today this old one is only here to find my ignorant granddaughter. Since there's nothing else, this old one will bring her away so that she won't be in your way." Sighing lightly, a trace of helplessness flashed across her eyes. The old wet nurse lightly shook her head. It was really like someone leaving the house to have tea. It seemed like even if he wanted to do something, he wouldn't be able to do so much with his old arms and legs.
"Let's go, let's go. Are we going to stay here and be a hindrance?"
The old wet nurse urged the little girl, who was kneeling on the ground, as she spoke.
After so many years, she clearly knew what Feng Yue had done.
It was just that it was better to see than to see. He never would have thought that the person who was always so sorrowful back then would lower his head so low. Seeing him today was no longer the same look he had before.
It was already rare for him to be able to protect them.
"Let me help you. Be careful." It was unknown how long the little girl had knelt for. Her hands and feet were numb for a long time, but she was unable to stand up. Gu Qingyi quickly stepped forward to support her. Tears of gratitude welled up in her eyes.
Her feet were like millions of ants gnawing on the ground. She felt a heart-wrenching pain. She bit her lips and kept silent.
"Stop!" Who said you could leave? " You want to leave? It's not that easy! Lian Feng Yue snorted coldly as she shouted in a low voice.
Suddenly, Gu Qingyi, who was holding onto the little girl, froze for a moment. She stealthily glanced at the old wet nurse beside her.
The mama waved her hand at her, then calmly turned around. "I wonder what orders do you have for Aunt? It's getting late and this old one is getting old. If there's nothing important, this old one will not disturb you. "
"This matter is of great importance, please forgive me mother. Today, we must investigate this matter thoroughly. Otherwise, the entire manor will not be at peace." This matter was related to her precious son, so she had intended to investigate it thoroughly. Now that this old thing appeared again, she naturally wouldn't let go of this opportunity.
