Aunt Lian has served Bai Yu since she was a child, her name is the master and servant, she is like a sister, she knows a lot of things.

But she has been forbearant and cowardly for decades, and many times she only hides it, and she doesn't want to cause trouble to affect Bai Heng and Bai Jing.

Her tone now obviously knows the inside story.

Bai Jing looked at her seriously, "What does my aunt know?" ”

Seeing that the other party turned sideways and his eyes flashed and he was about to find an excuse, he immediately said: "I won't tell you, I've been investigating my mother's past recently." Even if the old servants in the house are not there, my mother has lived in this house for so many years, and there are always traces. ”

"Miss, why do you bother?"

Aunt Lian's tone was helpless, and she said again: "Now that the old lady loves you, the old man saw you last night, and your father and daughter are affectionate, so it's the best." ”

Her face was hesitant and confused, with embarrassment.

"I have done a lot of things in vain to make peace with my family, but in the end, I was just bullied again and again and driven to a dilapidated courtyard to borrow medicine to live. Auntie, it's not like you can live a foolish life to be safe, sometimes it's better to be an understanding person. ”

Bai Jinghao also trusted her, and she didn't hide it, and continued bluntly: "I already know that after my mother left the capital, she went not to Yingchuan, but to the south. Not only her, but Bai Qingping has also been there, as well as General Shen. ”

There is a hatred between her and Bai Qingping for killing her mother, but she respects Shen Rui very much.

Aunt Lian looked at her in astonishment.

"Not only that, my mother brought a Nanyu ring with her when she returned to Beijing, which is not an uncommon thing, and I only thought about it in the past."

Bai Jinghao's slender fingers gently rubbed the porcelain pattern, and his tone gradually became heavier: "But I recently got something, it is a Nanyu paperweight from the Sunan Palace, and I just saw the palace mark on the box."

My aunt of the ring has seen it, but I still remember that there used to be a purse with it, and the flame pattern on the purse was exactly the mark of the Sunan Palace, but it was a pity that the purse let the maid in Rongfutang go away when I was driven out of Pinmei Xuan. ”

Aunt Lian's lips moved slightly, and her face was surprised, "You, how can you find out to the southern border?" ”

"My aunt really knows the southern border."

Bai Jinghao's face was clear, "If my aunt is willing to tell me what she knows, she will help me; If I don't say it, I can find out myself. ”

"No, you can't check it!"

Aunt Lian, who had always been soft-spoken, suddenly raised her head, her face was firm, and she repeated and emphasized: "You can't go and check your mother's past. ”

"Why?"

"You checked, and the consequences are unimaginable."

Aunt Lian frowned tightly, and was silent for a long time before she said slowly: "Miss, when your mother was trapped in this courtyard, because the subordinates she served earlier were all betrayed, there was no one to accompany her to explain and speak. When the old man saw that she was getting haggard and worried, he let me come in to accompany her. ”

"My mother will have something to tell you." It's not a doubt, Bai Jinghao is very sure.

Aunt Lian bowed her head and confessed: "Your mother was brought back by the old man. ”

Bai Jinghao's fingers tightened slightly, "I know." ”

If you don't use means, why send people out and restrict your freedom?

"Your mother was uneasy every day for a while, as if she was worried about something."

Seeing that the other party was looking at her with blazing eyes, Aunt Lian hurriedly shook her head: "She didn't say this, but I can see that your mother has someone she loves." That person is not a master. ”

"Needless to say, if that person really likes my mother, he would have found it a long time ago, and he wouldn't let her fall into the hands of others at all." Bai Jinghao's tone was complicated.

"That ring should have been given to your mother by that person. You said you found the South, and she did go there, and it was probably where you met.

When your mother returned home, the eldest lady was pregnant with the second lady, and the lord came to Pinmei Xuan every day to see your mother, but the lady was not angry, but the aunt broke in and lost her temper at your mother. ”

"The eldest lady didn't make trouble at that time?"

This surprised Bai Jinghao, Qin Rou's temperament, when she was young, she could bear it?

Aunt Lian nodded, "The lord cares about your mother, even the old lady can't look at it, Mrs. Bi didn't say anything, only that the matter of the old man adding a concubine room is nothing serious, and he also promised to make wine after your mother gives birth and officially admit your mother to the door." ”

"The eldest lady knew my mother's identity at that time, right?"

Aunt Lian bowed her head, "I must know." At that time, Prince Xiaomin was still there, and the Marquis Zongyu's mansion was powerful, and this matter was still investigated. What Mrs. showed at that time was that she understood the virtue of the old man's reluctant to take care of her sister who was out of town and suffered hardships, and she didn't feel sorry at all, and even sent a lot of fetal pills. ”

"She sent a tocolytic?"

"yes." Aunt Lian remembered that year, and sighed slightly: "Madame treated people very well in the first few years when she first entered the door, and she never felt sorry for me. After I gave birth to the second young master, the old lady wanted to raise me as an aunt, and the lady agreed, and took the second young master to her house to raise, and told me that in the future, the second young master will be raised by his mother in the eyes of outsiders, and he will not be looked down upon when he goes out. ”

Bai Jinghao said in a light tone: "At that time, my grandfather was still there. ”

"Later, I learned that she hugged the second young master, but she was thoughtful on the surface, but she refused to teach anything, and the second young master was often said by the enlightened gentleman because he only knew how to play and did not know how to be motivated. Mrs. behaved very distressed about the second young master, and often argued with the master for this, who in this house did not say that the eldest lady was merciful after a long time? ”

Qin Rou's real intention of doing that was well known to both of them at this moment.
