Time slipped quietly between their fingers, and some people could keep their hearts as always, such as Xue Yan.

She is a very kind little girl, she has no ill will towards anyone, even to the only aunt in the house, Lu, she is also very kind and never speaks right and wrong.

Since the Lu family entered the door of the Xue family, they have favored Xue Yan and are very friendly to Xue Yan.

She knew that Xue Yan had not been liked by the painting mother since she was a child, so she would often walk outside the small garden between Mingxi Hall and the painting garden, just to take a look at Xue Yan through the leaky window on the courtyard wall, care about her body, and bring her some small gifts, snacks and the like.

Xue Yan will also exchange gifts, giving back some small items that she has made by herself or purses.

The two of them separated the courtyard wall and relied on the flower-shaped leaky windows to establish a deep friendship.

In Xue Yan's heart, the weight of the Lu family sometimes surpasses that of Ei Niang.

Because the Lu family is not like Ei Niang, she is good and bad to her, she is actually very afraid of Painted Niang in her heart, except for saying hello in the morning and evening, she basically will not take the initiative to appear in the Painted Garden.

Because she's really afraid.

I still remember one time, when E-Niang was 'sick', she was also there, E-Niang couldn't kill Xue Dongyuan, so she stared at her extremely resentfully, cursing her for not dying well, and she would definitely be a hundred times more miserable than her sister in the future.

That poisonous look haunted her like maggots for hundreds of nights to come, making her wake up in nightmares and break out in a cold sweat.

Then she would secretly cover her mouth and cry, not daring to make a sound.

She never wanted to hurt her sister, but no matter what she did, her mother just didn't like her, and even if her mother lost her memory, she wouldn't hurt her as much as she did with her sister.

She envies her sister very much, and occasionally envy her sister, she can be so loved by her mother and father, but she never resents it, because her sister treats her very well, and she never forgets her if she has anything delicious and fun.

She always wants to ease her relationship with her mother, and although her mother still hates her, she is still grateful to her sister.

She will work hard to be a good child who doesn't let people worry about it.

This is Xue Yan's true words.

She often chatted with Lu through the courtyard wall.

Lu grew up in the Teaching Workshop Division since she was a child, and she is very good at figuring out people's hearts, she never says bad things about anyone in front of Xue Yan, and she will not raise any topics about Einiang.

The two of them only talked about flowers and plants, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and Lu sometimes picked up some past experiences and descriptions to Xue Yan, who had never been out of the house, which made Xue Yan yearn for the outside world.

What kind of world is that?

It should be big, beautiful, and free.

But it has nothing to do with her, she can probably only stay in the back house for the rest of her life, and after she is married, she will marry a husband arranged by her father, and then continue to teach her husband and children in the back house.

She looks so beautiful, she will definitely be like her mother, and she won't even let out the second door.

She wished she could look ordinary, even if she couldn't go out, at least she could wear a veil without going in and out.

It's a pity that this is just a small wish in the depths of her heart.

It can't be achieved in this lifetime.

Xue Yan is only nine years old, but she is like an old woman, and her eyes are completely free of the liveliness and romance that this age should have, and some are just melancholy and sadness.

She looked at Lu's delicate back in the distance and let out a long sigh.

Lu Shi also frowned, and her heart became more and more uneasy, she always felt that she was about to lose her life.

An aunt who is about to fall out of favor or has fallen out of favor, and has no children with her, what should she do in the future?

She's only nineteen years old now.

When she sighed for a long time and walked towards Fanghua Courtyard with a sad brow, Qiao'er, the personal maid who helped her, wanted to speak several times, but she didn't notice it.

It wasn't until she walked on a deserted road that Qiao'er couldn't help but whisper: "Auntie, when the maid went to the West Road this morning to find the second lady to ask for fennel, she heard an unbelievable news. ”

Lu glanced at her, with a bit of blame in his eyes, "I didn't tell you, don't eavesdrop on the corner, if someone finds out, I think we have something wrong with our thoughts." ”

Qiao'er was wronged, "The maid has been by my aunt's side for so many years, how can I not know that my aunt doesn't like to tell right and wrong the most?" The maid didn't want to listen to it, but it was about the eldest lady who was imprisoned in the nunnery that year, and the maid listened to two more sentences, which frightened the maid. ”

"Why did it scare the hell out of you?" Lu felt Qiao'er make a fuss.

Qiao'er raised her eyes and looked around, as if she was afraid that people would hear her, and saw that there were no Tibetans among the palms and dead bamboos on both sides of the road.

Only then did he whisper to the Lu family with reassurance: "A while ago, didn't the uncle say that he recognized a righteous girl?" also named Jin, and became the eldest lady in the house, just because there was an extra Miss Jin, Miss Yan of Mingxi Hall became Miss Yan Er again. ”

Her eldest lady and second lady went around in a circle, and they were going to make the Lu family dizzy, and these Lu families were not unclear.

An impatient look flew over her, and Qiao'er hurriedly picked the important one and said, "I heard that this Miss Jin is actually Miss Yang who was imprisoned in the nunnery more than three years ago!" ”

Lu opened his mouth in surprise and glared at Qiao'er, "How is it possible?" ”

"The maid also thinks it's impossible, but it's the second master and his wife who are talking about it! It was the second master who said it to the second lady personally, and asked her to tell Miss Min San not to always run to the painting garden, saying that the uncle personally confessed. ”

Qiao'er helped Lu Shi to walk slowly on the road, lowered her voice and continued: "The maid is really curious, so she found a secret place to hide. I heard the second lady ask the second master why, obviously they are all relatives, why can't they go to her sister to play. ”

"She also said how pitiful her sister is, she can't speak at a young age, her legs and feet are inconvenient, she doesn't even have a friend, and she doesn't let her children go to play with her, isn't it even more pitiful? Why can't this work? ”

"The maid was also thinking about this question at the time, so she listened to the second master's answer very carefully, do you know what the second master said?"

Qiao'er nervously turned her head and looked around again, and lowered her voice: "The second master said that the eldest lady is actually not the master's biological daughter at all, she was born by the lady and other men!" ”

That's a ...... It's incredible. Lu was so shocked that he couldn't turn around.

Isn't it said that it is unsightly ugly? Doesn't it mean that she is not in her right mind? Didn't you say she was a sick seedling?

Didn't it mean that I had no relationship with her for a long time, if it weren't for the face of my two daughters, I would have taken her out of court a long time ago?

The soles of Lu Yunfang's feet fluttered, and her back was chilled.

Yes, it's been four years, and if you want to take a break, you would have taken a break a long time ago, and how can it be delayed until today.

What really loves her is only her, why will she hand over this family business to the child she gave birth to in the future, hehe, it turned out that it was all a lie to her?
