He used his fingers to pull his wide sleeves, and his slightly raised chin was unable to cover his slender neck.

The village girl who had been revived from the rumors was now obediently leaning against Bai Feiyu's knee. In her eyes, there was a pride that none of her sons or daughters had ever had before. Her eyes were like stars under her long eyelashes, how could they be covered by dirt?

She still had one hand on the carpet, and the charcoal brazier beside it was sizzling.

"Ming Yan is trapped in the vortex, unable to break free."

"Grandfather was kind enough to protect me, but in the end, I'm just drinking poison to quench my thirst. In the future, I'll be the one who gets into trouble."

"Unlike today, when you faced me honestly and used me as a stepping stone, turning me into a set of National Duke's Mansion and rising from the ground like a landslide, where my mother would return to?"

The sound was soft and gentle, like warm water entering the throat.

However, every word that came from the mouth of this little girl was enough to send chills down one's spine.

But Gu Mingyan had only been in the National Duke's Mansion for three to four hours, and he had done a lot of things. Not only did he poke a hole in the window, he also didn't want to use it as a cover, only his body became soft as he leaned on Bai Feiyu's knees, and he gently said: "Just treat Ming Yan as your middleman, you can't trust him but you can use him if you want to."

Bai Song was stunned, he looked at Gu Mingyan who was smiling faintly, and actually did not feel wronged at all.

The three uncles did not perform well. They were mediocre and had been cautious for half their lives.

But today, hearing Gu Mingyan's empty words, he did not know how to refute.

However, Bai Feiyu, who was over a hundred years old, had bright eyes. He raised his hand to pat her shoulder, and then gently placed his palm on her head.

"These words were taught to you by your mother?"

"Mother only taught me how to live carefree and carefree lives."

Gu Mingyan gently shook his head and lowered it, allowing his grandfather's strength to increase.

"Even so, how can you say such nonsense today? Even if my National Duke's Mansion is no longer flourishing and my family is great, I will not participate in any forces and leaving in the future will not bring about any suffering. Why do I need to …"

Before Third Uncle could finish, he was blocked by his grandfather's eye.

Bai Feiyu's palms gradually relaxed a bit, but his words gradually became stern.

"You are as ambitious as your father."

"It's not ambition. Does grandfather really believe that he can escape unscathed?" Gu Mingyan helplessly raised his head and looked at him: "Maybe my grandfather's old friend in the imperial court, or a skilled craftsman in the clan, or maybe... what Grandpa knew all those years ago. "

All sorts of things happened, how could he escape unscathed?

His body was in the middle of it, moving a bit while dragging his entire body.

Being hit straight on, the two uncles were speechless, only Bai Song and his son looked at each other, their eyes were gloomy.

Bai Feiyu's gaze changed, and he said, "Where did you come from …"

"Since this is the case, and since mother has already seen through it, how could Ming Yan not know?"

Gu Mingyan struggled to raise his head from Bai Fei Yu's knee, his hair a little messy as he looked at Bai Fei Yu, "Ming Yan is so intelligent, is this not a good thing?"

"What's good?" Bai Feiyu asked again.

"Clean oneself and take good care of yourself, be magnanimous in your principles; protect yourself and do not harm the clansmen."

Gu Mingyan smiled, seeing the gentleness in his grandfather's eyes, his heart felt warm.

The National Duke's Mansion was not as cold as Aunt Zhou had said.

Finally, Bai Feiyu said coldly, "So you threw yourself into the Seventh Prince? "Do you know his legs …"

With his eyes opened slightly, Gu Mingyan crawled up with difficulty and grabbed his grandfather's slightly aged hand, smiling faintly: "There might still be a sliver of leeway in this matter, not to mention that Ming Yan definitely won't be as infatuated as my mother. With my current value, I think that no one would truly dare to harm me, and it's my grandfather's cousin and cousin's that should think, and live a better life, than to be pointed at by the nose and said to be useless."

After placing his grandfather's hand on top of his head again, Gu Mingyan just hung down lazily with both of his hands, while only his chin rested heavily on his grandfather's knees. He looked at him helplessly and said, "I really like it when grandfather kneads my head."

She had never been so close to her loved ones.

Bai Feiyu was slightly stunned. He looked at the pair of hopeful eyes, but still gently brushed her hair.

Gu Mingyan smiled apologetically at his three uncles, as if he was a little kitten whose hair was standing on end, leaning on his knees.

She had spoken bluntly just now. In the end, she had been a bit impulsive, and it had indeed harmed her honor and inferiority.

However, the three uncles were still embarrassed when they heard the last part.

The three uncles were not entangled people. Bai Song's father even walked forward, handed over a cushion and bent down, "Children must have looks of a child. In the future, do not be so aggressive with your words."

"Yes, Uncle."

Gu Mingyan nodded her head obediently, she placed the cushion under her, then looked at the table that was filled with cold dishes: "I really don't have much time for snacks, that's why I interrupted my New Year's day of interest, sorry."

"Since it's business, it's fine. Just send someone to heat up the dishes later."

Bai Song took this opportunity to walk up to Bai Feiyu and actually saw Gu Mingyan passing something over to him.

"I'll lend it to you for now. You'll have to return it to me in a few days."

Bai Feiyu instantly recognized the item in his hand. It was the Exquisite Sound Armor worn by His Highness, Seventh Prince.

He thought that it was just a rumor, but now that he had the object with him, he had no choice but to believe it.

The two uncles left one after another, instructing the servants to go heat up the dishes. After everyone left, Bai Feiyu asked her, "How is the relationship between you and His Highness the Seventh Prince?"

"This is an agreement between His Highness and myself, of course we cannot say anything about it." Gu Mingyan obediently shook his head, and leaned against the chair at the side, massaging his legs for Bai Feiyu, and said softly: "However, Grandfather you have your own principles, which can test Your Highness. Your National Duke's Mansion has not reached the end of the line, so you must rely on the prince."

"You seem to be able to see through it."

Bai Song's father suddenly laughed softly, finding this girl, who he had just met, even more interesting.

Gu Mingyan chuckled, then said: "However, I have been going around everywhere now, and these secret connections have to be made by grandfather and uncles. Father's side has quite a bit of ambition, but it isn't an evil crime, so I have to slowly return them one by one."

After saying this sentence, Gu Mingyan pulled Bai Feiyu along, wanting to ask Mother about how she looked like when she was young.

Was she the same cold and aloof young miss as he remembered?

Or a stubborn and proud daughter.

Bai Feiyu began to explain to everyone one by one. After the food was hot, it would be a lively lunch.

It was actually the only meal that Gu Mingyan liked that he came here to eat.

In the afternoon, Grandfather let Bai Song take her to walk around the study room, chatting with his peers.

Bai Song revealed a face full of worry: You are only fourteen, and are still human and fish. Now that we are connected, are you not afraid that father and grandfather will not believe you, and treat you as a lobbyist for His Highness the Seventh Prince?

"Cousin is worried, Ming Yan is naturally happy." Gu Mingyan wiped away her smile and held onto her cheek with one hand, a smile appearing in her eyes: "If Grandfather is suspicious and my biological father also suspects that I am not my real appearance, then Your Highness will not fully trust me."

"However, since I've chosen to do this, I do not care what you think of me."

In any case, the liveliness of today was comparable to all the happiness she had in her previous life.
