Old man Gu explained to Li Chunhai the reason for the eldest wife's jealousy.

It turned out that Xiaojuan's mother, although she was only a flat wife, was born in an official family, and although the eldest wife was a wife, she gave birth to a businessman. With this background alone, the eldest lady can't hold her head up in front of Xiaojuan's mother, and Xiaojuan's mother is kind and treats her subordinates very kindly. When the subordinates received the favor of Xiaojuan's mother, they naturally widely supported her, but instead despised the eldest wife, which made the eldest lady even more jealous.

When Xiaojuan's mother was still alive, she was very favored by Master Su, and the eldest lady naturally didn't dare to do anything. But now that the person is gone, the eldest lady will spread her resentment on Xiaojuan'er, either reducing her food or looking for an opportunity to scold her. It's a pity that the little juan people are too young and don't know how to resist at all, so they have to swallow their anger and often wash their faces with tears.

"This big lady is hateful!" Li Chunhai naturally had no scruples in front of Old Man Gu, and said directly: "I actually sprinkled my anger on a child, Xiaojuan is really pitiful." ”

"Little Lizi, what you said is yes!" Old man Gu seemed to be very dissatisfied with the eldest lady, Zou frowned and said: "It's a pity that the eldest lady's status in this Su Mansion can't be shaken, and Xiao Juan doesn't dare to tell the master what happened to her, so she can only go on like this..."

Li Chunhai couldn't help but sigh, and it happened that the two of them also walked to the backyard at this time. Li Chunhai couldn't help but take a step towards the door, wanting to see Xiao Juan'er's room, but was caught back by Old Man Gu.

"Little Lizi, don't go in!" Old man Gu hurriedly whispered, "You can remember, don't enter this inner courtyard in the future, otherwise you will be seen, but I will drive you out of the house!" ”

Li Chunhai was taken aback, thinking that it was indeed a serious problem for him to enter the backyard of this female dependent, so he hurriedly thanked the old man Gu and said, "Thank you Uncle Gu for reminding me, Xiaosheng must remember in the future that he will never dare to approach this courtyard." ”

Old Man Gu nodded, and then didn't say anything more. Then the two talked about some more things, and did not part until they returned to the handyman's room.

Back in his room, Li Chunhai lay on the boat, and couldn't help but continue to think about Xiaojuan, "Xiaojuan'er is so pitiful, I must think of some way to help her,"

The next day, just like the day before yesterday, Li Chunhai accompanied the two young masters and studied at Mr. Wang's side for a day. At night, Li Chunhai waited for Old Man Gu to come over, and then went out again.

"Xiao Li'er, do you want to accompany the old man for a turn and eliminate food?" Old man Gu couldn't help but laugh when he saw Li Chunhai finding him again. He also knew Li Chunhai's general purpose in his heart, but he was also happy to have someone accompany him to patrol the night.

"Hmm" Li Chunhai hurriedly responded, then walked to the side of Old Man Gu and said, "If Uncle Gu doesn't dislike it, I can come to accompany you on the night patrol in the future." ”

"Hehe" Old man Gu smiled from ear to ear, and led Li Chunhai to chat while walking. Soon, the two of them walked to the edge of the room again, and once there was a faint candle flame in the room.

"It should be Xiaojuan'er stealing food inside!" Old man Gu looked at Li Chunhai and said, "The eldest lady may come out to check the room tonight, Xiao Li'er, why don't you go in and remind Xiao Juan to go back quickly." ”

As soon as Li Chunhai heard this, he nodded to the old man of the valley, hurriedly pushed open the door of the room, and sure enough, he saw Xiaojuan squatting on the edge of the table, holding a steamed bun, and looking at him with a frightened expression. When she saw that the person who came in was Li Chunhai, she immediately relaxed, then put the steamed bun in her hand on the table, shouted "Brother Li", and jumped towards Li Chunhai.

After the last intimate contact, Xiaojuan'er has let down all her vigilance and defense against Li Chunhai, she burrowed into Li Chunhai's arms like a magpie entering a nest, leaning on Li Chunhai's chest affectionately with her face, enjoying the warmth brought by Li Chunhai's heart.

Li Chunhai was also surprised by her move, thinking that fortunately, his body was still very young, and the place where it should develop had not yet developed, otherwise Xiao Juan would have leaned over, and he would not have been exposed immediately. But Xiaojuan'er snuggled up to Li Chunhai so intimately, which made her feel like a mother's love exploded, after all, she was also in her early twenties in her heart, and she was already the mother of several children at the age of twenty in ancient times. So Li Chunhai couldn't help but stroke Xiao Juan'er's smooth hair with his hand, and said, "Don't be afraid, Xiao Juan'er, Brother Li is here!" ”

"Hmm!" Xiao Juan answered, then looked at Li Chunhai with excitement on her face, and said, "Brother Li, why are you here again today, are you not full for dinner, and you want to go back with steamed buns?" ”

Li Chunhai shook his head, suddenly remembered what Old Man Gu had just said to himself, and hurriedly said, "I'm not here to steal steamed buns, but to come to see you and tell you to go back to the room early." ”

"You're here to see me?" When Xiao Juan'er heard this, she became even more excited, "Brother Li, you are so good, you actually came to see Juan'er." ”

Li Chunhai saw Xiao Juan'er's lovely appearance, and his pity was also great. At this time, there was a gentle knock on the door behind her, and then the voice of the old man Gu came, "Little Lizi, let Xiao Juan leave quickly, there is a light in front of you." ”

When Li Chunhai heard this, he hurriedly grabbed Xiao Juan'er's hand and dragged her out of the room. Xiao Juan was also taken aback by Li Chunhai's move, and hurriedly asked, "Brother Li, what are you pulling me for?" ”

"Little Juan'er, you should run back to your house now!" Li Chunhai whispered, and then pointed to the faint light in the distance, "Seeing that the light is not there, it is very likely that the eldest lady came to check the room!" ”

"It's the eldest lady!" As soon as Xiao Juan heard that it was the eldest lady coming, her face suddenly lightened. Seeing this, Li Chunhai patted her thin shoulder and said, "You run now, Old Man Gu and I will stop here, and I will not let the eldest lady find you!" ”

As soon as Xiaojuan heard Li Chunhai say this, he nodded at Li Chunhai, turned around and ran towards the backyard. She didn't run a few steps, then stopped and glanced back at Li Chunhai.

"Run, leave us alone." Li Chunhai hurriedly pushed his hand at Xiao Juan'er, and when Xiao Juan saw this, Xiao Juan nodded again, and then ran towards the backyard again. This time, she also used her strength, ran very fast, and soon got into the backyard.

After watching Xiao Juan run away, Li Chunhai relieved himself. And the old man Gu had already extinguished the candle in the room, slowly retreated, and said to Li Chunhai: "What a lovely child, it's a pity that her mother died so early..."

Just as Old Man Gu was speaking, the light was already approaching. Li Chunhai looked towards the lamp and saw a young maid walking in front with a lantern, followed by a well-dressed woman. Li Chunhai saw that this woman was about thirty years old, and her facial features resembled the two young masters in many places, obviously she was the mother of the two young masters, that is, the eldest lady of this Su Mansion.

As soon as the eldest lady came over, before Old Man Gu and Li Chunhai saluted, she said loudly, "What are you doing here?" Did you find someone stealing something to eat? ”
