Grand Madam sneered, "I'm afraid you have already known in your heart who this child is? It was all because of his reputation that he couldn't spread it! There are some things that are hard for you to do, just leave it to this old woman! "
Lin Pei listened, and did not comment.
He had already thought about it, and after a while he would personally go to see Auntie Zhong, and only said that he would do his best to protect Auntie Zhong's life, if not, Grand Madam's methods might not be able to keep him alive. Lin Geer had been by Auntie Zhong's side for a few years already, and there would definitely be some benefits. Furthermore, if anything were to happen to the Lin Geer, the first person to feel bad would be Chun Geer.
Thinking about it, he finally nodded his head, "I only hope that you can keep your life with Auntie Zhong, Lian Jieer has always been obedient and obedient to you, and now that you are old enough to talk about marriage, no matter how hard you try to hide it, if someone wants to ask about it, they will find out. At that time, it will be very difficult to make a marriage with Lian Jieer, as it is not easy for a young lady, would you like to see Lian Jieer getting married at that time …?"
"The back of your hand is all meat. I know that there are some things that you can't explain to Big Brother. I'll go say it, so there's no need to worry about it."
Even though the back of his hand was made of meat, the meat on his palm was much thicker than the meat on the back of his hand … The many years of indifference between mother and son were no longer something that could become intimate with each other overnight.
The Grand Madam tightly held onto the armrest of the armchair, "You don't need me to worry? Which one of these days do I have to worry about? I know, you're always blaming me for treating you better than your big brother and second brother, right? "
"Oh, isn't it? They all say that the Emperor values his eldest son above all else, but why would the people love him? It's a pity that this little son of mine didn't know what he did wrong to make you hate him so much. " Lin Pei clenched his fists tightly, any form of courtesy and filial piety was all fake. If the Grand Madam did not protect Juan Niang that day, then the things that happened today might not have happened.
I still remember that when I was young, Second Brother's studies were not bad. At that time, Father said that he would send Second Brother to the White Horse Institute, but what did you say when you heard it?" Although the White Horse Institute was too far away, Second Brother was a spoiled child, and there was no one around to take care of him, so he might as well wait two years before going to the White Horse Institute. However, after two years, Second Brother's mind was no longer on studying … "When my father sent me to the White Horse Academy, I was younger than him by a few years. At that time, you didn't say anything and just told me to study properly and not be a playboy. Do you still remember this?
Saying this, he gave a cold laugh, "I'm afraid you don't even remember, but I do remember that from childhood until now, there have been so many things like this. Sometimes, I even wonder if the child I've given birth to is by your side, which is why you are so disgusted with me."
"You're a child born in October, how did you become a concubine's child? Your eyes are exactly the same as mine, how can you not be my child? " Grand Madam frowned, he felt that his eyes were extremely sore, but he forced himself not to cry in front of his son, "It's all my fault, it's all my fault!"
She could not hold back her tears, but the pain in her throat was unbearable. She enunciated each word clearly, "Fine, didn't you want to know why I kept alienating you? Then I'll tell you! "
"In the past, I had a lot of twins, but you actually had a big brother. At that time, when you two were born, the fourth son was born with a umbilical cord wrapped around his neck, and it took a lot of effort for him to be born. That's why his body was not very well when he was born, instead you were always healthy and healthy …" After three months, because of a cold, Fourth Bro died. At that time, I was overcome with grief, and the midwife's unintentional words made me feel even worse. The midwife told me that there were many children who were having difficulties giving birth, but if the mother was pregnant with twins, then half of the baby would die. After all, the nourishment that the mother had eaten would be given to the other child in her womb. "
"Motherf * cker, how could I not love my own child? It's just that every time I see you, I always think of Fourth Bro. You two are exactly the same …" Over time, I don't dare to see you, nor do I dare to get close to you. I'm afraid that if I think of Fourth Brother, if he's still alive, he'll be as old as you! "
At the end of her words, her mouth was filled with pain. That night, when Ye Gu Si died, she cried for the whole night while hugging him. At that time, the Old Duke Master was still taking care of the outer room.
Lin Pei also became silent, and said after a long while: "... "You keep saying that you feel terrible in your heart, but how can I be innocent about this matter?"
With that, he turned and left.
He did not doubt the words of the Grand Madam, but just because of these few light words, he felt that it was impossible for the grievances that had been in his heart for many years to be dispelled.
Grand Madam was his mother. It was true, but he would never be as filial and respectful to her as his big brother and second brother in his life.
"Grand Madam naturally did not sleep all night, and waited for the next morning, but still forced himself to get up and take care of the household's matters. Did anything happen at Auntie Zhong's side last night? "
Last night, Auntie Zhong was locked up in Green Pine Academy's firewood shed, and Nanny Chen had sent someone to watch over it.
Nanny Chen sighed, then said: "Speaking of which, it is quite strange. Ever since Auntie Zhong was locked up, she did not cry nor make a fuss, and she even ate all the food that his wife sent over cleanly. On the contrary, last night, after Fifth Master went out of your house and went to the woodshed, the wife outside the door had planned to listen in secretly, but Fifth Master was quite considerate and sent people outside to guard the door. What they said inside, no one else would know. "
"How do you know what he said?" Grand Madam didn't know if he was happy or sad. He was happy that his youngest son had such a resolution at such a young age, otherwise, he wouldn't be able to occupy the position of Third Rank. Sad that his youngest son was still on guard against him, "Let him go."
Nanny Chen only comforted Grand Madam to take a rest, "First Madam said earlier, you don't have to be too upset because of this matter. It's not your fault, you can relax for now … They said that First Princess Pingning would come over in the evening. With your current attitude, where can you meet guests? "
Only then did Grand Madam go down.
At this time, Lin Shu had originally planned to go take a look at the Juan Niang, but it was just that now that Lin Jia's husband had come over, she had to avoid going in, it wasn't good to go inside to see the Juan Niang, so she went to Lin Hui's courtyard.
Lin Hui's eyes were swollen like walnuts, looking at her, she looked like she had been crying all night. Even if Auntie Zhong was not happy, she should have at least gone to Fifth Uncle. Fifth Uncle would have let big sister come out and compensate you, right? How can you act so viciously? "
"Juan Niang had originally suffered a lot at Forin, but because we were hurrying on our way, she was so skinny that she did not look human anymore. It was not easy for us to return to the capital, and we raised up some meat, we did not expect such a ruckus to occur again, Sister Shu, tell me, what do you think we should do?"
She was completely thrown into disarray. She had initially thought that since her niece had caught the sound of a Forin, it would not be good for her to talk about marriage in the future. Seeing that Juan Niang was extremely well taught by her elder sister, she did not lose that language at all. I'm afraid it will be hard to tell you about the marriage in the future.
Lin Shu had already known that the Auntie Zhong would make her move, but she never thought that she would actually make such a move. She might even lose her life because of this, "Don't worry, now that even the imperial physician has come, there will be a way … Now, even if you were to cry your eyes out, it would be of no use at all. "
Lin Hui was still sobbing. Last night, her sister had already cried on Juan Niang, and it was useless to not sleep at all.
Originally, the reason why Lin Jia followed the First Princess Pingning back to the capital was to invite the Apricot Forest Holy Hand from the palace to help him recuperate and give birth to a boy as soon as possible.
Lin Shu did not know how to persuade her, and after a while, Madam Ye also came over with Sister Pearl. Initially, because she was chosen by First Madam himself, and later because Duke Chengan was born from a concubine of the Ye Family, Grand Madam was not happy, but after seeing Madam Ye being gentle and respectful, she started to have a good expression on her face.
Now, not only can Madam Ye speak a few words in front of this little sister-in-law, but she can also say a few words in front of Grand Madam. Now, she was even persuading her: "Sis Hui'er, don't cry. I'm afraid it will be even more painful. "
Lin Hui only replied with a low voice, but her tears could not be stopped.
Sister-in-law is sister-in-law after all, how would she truly take pity on her sister? She was actually a little unsatisfied with Madam Ye. Even though she knew that her sister was in a terrible state because of Juan Niang, she still carried her over. Wasn't this adding fuel to the fire?
In fact, Madam Ye had good intentions as well. She thought that since Juan Niang was currently very upset, she might as well hug Sister Pearl and play with him for a bit.
On the other hand, Lin Shu knew that her sister-in-law was a good person, why did she say that? In truth, the bottom of Madam Ye's heart was pretty good, but because of the word 'filial piety', she listened very carefully to the words of the Grand Madam and the First Madam and did not have any idea of what to do, "Sister-in-law should just carry the Sister Pearl back, maybe the Sister Pearl will see the wounds on the Juan Niang's face later and be scared and cry. The two children will cry together, maybe the older sister will feel even worse."
The kind Madam Ye thought for a moment, then ordered the wet nurse to carry Sister Pearl back, "Just now, I saw that Young Master seemed to have returned, let's go and take a look at Aunt!"
