She and her aunt were here to stir up the relationship between the Old Mistress and An Lingge. If An Lingge did not hate the Old Mistress, how would they proceed with their plan?

In the end, Madam Li was a bit older than her. After staying in the backyard for 30 years, her patience was much better than her daughter.

She pulled An Lingge and said words of pity and pity her, and she almost cried while hugging An Lingge. After a while, she took out a handkerchief and wiped the tears that did not exist at the corner of her eyes, "Your birth mother passed away young, and you took care of the Duke's Palace when I was in charge of it. For all these years, Aunt has doted on you as her own daughter. It's a pity that Nanny Zhang is an evil slave who instigated our relationship. If not, how could Eldest Miss fall to such a state? "

I thought my grandmother was my own grandmother, so she must be closer than my aunt. But what happened today made me understand, even if my grandmother was closer, if she didn't love me, then she wouldn't be as nice to me as my aunt, who is not related by blood.

When the Madam Li heard her words, she quietly gave An Lingyi a meaningful glance, and the latter walked up to him in time and held An Lingge's hand with a sincere expression, "Think about it, before Grandmother and Second Uncle came to the Duke's Mansion, only Father, Aunt, me, and the four of us were there. At that time, we would have been living such a happy life!"

She took the incident of her childhood into consideration. She seemed to be extremely nostalgic. After a long sigh, she sadly said, "It's a pity that Grandmother and the others came back later on. We won't have that kind of happy time again."

An Lingge quietly listened to their persuasion.

Before the madame returned to the residence, life in the residence had indeed been peaceful and happy, but that happiness was all relative to An Lingyi. At that time, she was secretly scolded by the servants, but because of her timid personality, she didn't dare to say it out in front of the Madam Li.

If she had not experienced a new life, she would not have been able to understand. Those servants, under the orders of the Madam Li, dared to lay their hands on a proper master like her.

Just as she was thinking this, a trace of ridicule appeared at the corner of her mouth.

Madam Li saw her expression with her sharp eyes and immediately pulled on An Lingyi's sleeves, signalling her to stop talking.

She was very clear about the life that An Lingge led when she was young, and now that Yi Er had brought it up, she was afraid that it would hurt her feelings.

An Lingyi immediately regained her senses, her charming face revealing a look of regret.

When she was young, she had even teased An Lingge for fun. When An Lingge was angry and sad, she had then went up to say that she was just playing around with her and told her not to be angry at herself.

"No matter what, let the past pass. With an aunt by our eldest miss's side, we will definitely not let eldest miss suffer as much as she did today." Madam Li did not mention anymore old things and only expressed her concern for An Lingge.

She took out a green porcelain bottle and handed it over to the woman, "This is the cosmetic ointment that my little sister ordered someone to bring over from the palace. It is extremely precious and I have always been reluctant to use it. "Now that the eldest young miss has been hit on the face, it's time to take good care of it, so the aunt gave it to you."

"How can this be?"

An Lingge was about to return the ointment, but the Madam Li didn't accept it. She only smiled gently, "I've already stayed in the Duke Palace for so many years, am I still afraid that the Duke would despise me? Young miss, you're not married yet. Your looks are very important. What if Hereditary Prince Mu... In the end, there shouldn't be any problem with this girl's appearance. As long as Eldest Miss remembers these words, this lady won't harm you. "

An Lingyi pouted at the side, revealing a tasteless look, "Aunt really treats big sister very well, I've asked you for this ointment for a long time, and she was even unwilling to give it to me, now she's actually willing to give it to big sister."

"Little girl, what are you talking about?" Madam Li stared at her as if she was angry at An Lingyi's blabbering. The latter curled her lips and did not say anything.

An Lingge held the porcelain bottle in her hand, her face full of emotions, yet she still pushed the bottle out. "This ointment is so precious, I'm afraid only the Imperial Noble Consort Li and Empress can get some of it, how can I take something this precious?"

"No matter how precious this ointment is, how can it be more important than your face?" Madam Li pushed the ointment back and earnestly said, "Since the ointment is gone, then so be it, if the Eldest Miss's face was scarred, then it could never be cured."

She described the situation seriously, afraid that An Lingge would not receive the medicine.

An Lingge scoffed from the bottom of his heart before hesitating and accepting it. "Since it's because of Aunt's good intentions, then Little Ge will accept it."

"That's right." Madam Li heaved a sigh of relief and exchanged glances with her daughter. Their eyes were filled with pride and excitement.

An Lingyi suppressed the joy on her face and feigned calmness, "Big sister's face is injured. She should be well, but you and I are going to study at the academy tomorrow, so Yi Er will not disturb us."

An Lingge nodded, she watched them leave the house, then lowered her head and studied the bottle in his hand.

"Aunt Li and Second Miss are really abnormal today." Bi Zhu walked over, and looked at the porcelain bottle, her expression still a little surprised, "Did the two of them get possessed by ghosts, to actually uncharacteristically get close to the little miss? A few days ago, I really wanted the little miss to disappear right in front of them."

Mingxin was amused by her words. Two faint dimples appeared on Xiao Family's jade-like face. "How are they trying to get close to Miss? They obviously said so much to give her the ointment, and were afraid that Miss would be wary of them."

"I knew they didn't have good intentions." Bi Zhu snorted, and immediately advised his Young Miss, "There must be a problem with the ointment, Young Miss you must not use it, if it disfigures your face, then that would be real trouble."

An Lingge unscrewed the porcelain bottle, and after smelling the scent from the tip of her nose, she closed the bottle again, "There's no problem with the ointment."

"If there's no problem, how is it possible?" Bi Zhu knew that his young miss had medical skills, but she could not help but ask: "Could it be that these two people are really doing this for my young miss's benefit?"

If one were to say that the Madam Li would sincerely say that it was for An Lingge's own good, it would be more accurate to say that the sow would come out from the tree.

An Lingge curled her lips, the ink deep in her eyes. "There's no problem with the ointment, the problem is with Aunt Li's hand. When Aunt Li held onto me just now, I already felt that something was wrong. Her palm had been smeared with something, and it was much smoother than ordinary people's hands. "

She turned her palm over and saw that it was already green.
