Xin Nian nodded, knowing that Gu Yunxiang was right. She picked up the teacup, looked out the window, and murmured: "I just pity Brother Feng..."

Before she could finish speaking, I heard Aunt Gu say angrily: "Are you still pitying me? Why don't you think about it? If Aunt Feng succeeds today, who will pity Liu Zai and Yaya?"

Xin Nian was startled, and then his face turned gloomy. Aunt Gu sighed and said softly: "If grandma must deal with her, it's fine. If she doesn't kill the snake, it will be trouble in the future."

Xin Nian shook his head: "She was just a borrowed knife to kill people. The one who provoked all this behind the scenes is our real henchman."

Everyone remained silent. After about half a quarter of an hour, Xin Nian suddenly stood up and said, "Liu Zai and Yaya have been playing in Shouning Palace for a long time. I'm afraid our ancestors are already tired. I'll go over and pick them up."

"Okay." Aunt Gu and Gu Yunxiang also stood up: "Then let's go back. Shouning Palace has probably got the news. It's better for you to go over and narrate it yourself than to add jealousy to others."

Xin Nian nodded, so the three of them said goodbye, and she went straight to Shouning Palace.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, he felt that the atmosphere was not right, and Xin Nian knew that the news must have been conveyed.

Sure enough, as soon as she entered the room, she saw the old lady looking at her kindly and said softly: "I heard that you passed another level. This is not easy."

Xin Nian took off his cloak and handed it to the girl next to him. He smiled and said, "Even the ancestors know about this matter. It's actually not bad. I have a clear conscience. Why are I afraid of breaking through?"

After saying that, he came to Liu Zai and Yaya, pinched their little faces lightly, and said with a smile: "You two, relying on the love of your ancestors, you are lawless here, but you are happy to miss Shu, right?"

The old concubine also smiled, touched Yaya's ball head, and said kindly: "Where is it? I used to be bored every day, but since having my six sons, Yaya, it has really relieved me a lot of loneliness."

"That's right, my sister and I are very well-behaved."

Liu Zai was dissatisfied. Xin Nian looked at him and said with a smile, "Really? Then have you shown your ancestor the new boxing skills you recently learned? Let her see if you have improved?"

"Of course it was a joke. My sister and I also performed some tricks together. Our ancestors praised us for our abilities and even rewarded us with candied fruits."

Xin Nian:......

"Cough cough cough..."

The old concubine suddenly coughed twice, and she seemed a little guilty. She explained to Xin Nian: "I don't dare to give them more food, but only one or two pieces per person."

Xin Nian looked at her helplessly and thought to himself: One or two yuan? I'm afraid it's one or two dishes, right? I don't know that you are so happy that you are spoiled to no end.

Naturally, it was difficult to say this, so Xin Nian could only laugh or cry and said: "Ancestor, please don't spoil them too much. These two little guys eat a lot of sweets on weekdays. The prince said that they are still young and eat too much."

Sweets are bad for your teeth."

"Hey! Aren't they going to have to replace their teeth? If they don't take advantage of the last moment to eat, it will take a lifetime for them to have teeth again. Naturally, I won't allow them to eat more."

"That's not what you said. Your Majesty specifically asked the imperial doctor and he said that there is one available right now..."

Before Xin Nian could finish speaking, he suddenly heard a cry from the yard: "Ancestor, wuwuwu, please save my mother, ancestor..."

Xin Nian stood up suddenly, and the old concubine also straightened up half of her body that was leaning on the soft pillow. Liu Zai and Yaya looked at the door in surprise. Liu Zai whispered: "It seems to be... third brother?"

"Brother Feng probably came to our ancestors to plead for mercy."

Xin Nian sighed, holding the little hands of Liu Zai and Yaya: "Ancestor, let me take Liu Zai and Yaya to get away for a while."

"No need." The old concubine smiled bitterly: "This matter probably cannot be decided by you and me. It's better for you to speak out here. You poor thing, you just came out of the dragon's pond and tiger's den, don't be confused again.

I hate it."

"Yes." Xin Nian raised his hand to wipe away some tears from the corners of his eyes: "My ancestors love me."

In just a short while, Gu Yufeng had already broken through the obstacles and ran into the house. Several girls and women were shouting anxiously behind him, but he saw the old lady waving her hands and saying: "Okay, you guys go down, brother Feng."

How old is he? Can he still come to my place and act wild? Go on, go on."

"yes."

The ladies and girls retreated. As expected, Gu Yufeng was not here to act wild. He knelt down from a distance, kowtowed to the old concubine with a bang on the ground, and cried out in a mournful voice: "Ancestor, please save my mother,

Please save my mother."

"Brother Feng, come here."

The old lady waved, but the nine-year-old child just shook his head, and then kowtowed his head.

Xin Nian saw that a large piece of skin had been broken on his forehead, and couldn't bear it, so he stepped forward to hold Gu Yufeng's arm and said softly: "Brother Feng, get up, what's the use of just kowtowing here? I have something to say... let's have a good relationship with him.

It would be better if our ancestors said it."

Gu Yufeng looked at her with tears in his eyes, lowered his head and said nothing. After a while, he finally stood up and whispered to Xin Nian: "Sister, let me say sorry to you on behalf of my mother."

Xin Nian almost burst into tears. She stretched out her hand to touch Gu Yufeng's head and choked with sobs: "If only Aunt Feng could be as sensible as Brother Feng...but...that's all. It's too late to say anything now."

Gu Yufeng cried bitterly again, walked to the old concubine, and looked at her with tears on his face. Because he cried so hard, he was speechless.

"Brother Feng, you have to know that the state-owned legal family has family rules. Your mother made such a big mistake, even your great-grandmother can't excuse her. What's more, my great-grandmother never took care of the affairs of the house.

It's your grandmother and second mother... No, it's the eldest mother now. Haha, they are the ones who decide everything in this house. You should beg them."

Gu Yufeng shook his head and said: "I went to beg, but both my aunt and grandmother said that if my mother is let go, there will be no rules in this house. Unless my great-grandmother speaks, otherwise...even if they want to spare my mother, they will not

There is no way to tolerate this."

The old concubine sighed and looked at Xin Nian: "Listen to me? Doesn't this put the problem on me? I don't say anything, it's just inhumane. My great-grandson begged me like this, but I feel like stone; but I

If I say something, wouldn't I become a sinner who tolerates my adopted daughter and breaks the rules of the house?"

Gu Yufeng followed the old concubine's gaze and looked at Xin Nian. Suddenly he got excited and hurriedly moved over to grab her clothes. He cried and begged: "My mother was confused for a moment and harmed Si Niang. Please forgive her. As long as you spare my mother."

If I don't die, I... I will also be your son from now on, and I will definitely be filial to you... Wuwuwu... Sixth brother, fourth sister, can you please help me and please my fourth mother..."

Liu Zai and Yaya's eyes widened. They didn't know about this before. Now they were confused after hearing Gu Yufeng's words. However, they did grasp the most important piece of information, that is: Aunt Feng wanted to harm her mother.
