Chapter 202 - An Unsolicited Offer
Shen Biyun did not expect to lose this battle. Now that she thinks about it, she is all alone, her cousin doesn't talk about it, and her aunt doesn't mention it much now.
How could she possibly compete with that family on her own?
They are not explicitly driving them away, are they?
Fortunately, Qin Yaozu's leg injury gave her an excuse, and she couldn't go anywhere until he was well.
She found her aunt: "Auntie, we are living in a difficult situation here, so please do something for us."
" I have shown you the way, you should also make an effort, how many ways can a man be coaxed into a relationship? Even I am getting the blame. If I were to help you, I wouldn't even be able to live here anymore. Besides, how can you not take care of your own children, teach yourself a good lesson, don't say everything. Don't say that An Mingxuan words are unreasonable, it doesn't sound good to me either ......"
"But Auntie, they are so cruel, they want to kill Yaozu, I haven't told you about the water fall, it's not Yaozu's fault, there are indeed fake lotus flowers."
"What does that prove? People are willing to put fake lotus flowers in their yards, and we can't help it. Not to mention fake lotus flowers, some years ago, when I was at home, I also got the grass to decorate the yard in winter, and it looked like a hundred flowers were blooming ......" the old lady sighed.
She really felt that Shen Biyun's wrist was not enough to deal with the woman from that General's residence, so she could not help but irritate her a little.
Shen Biyun couldn't say anything else.
When she saw that her aunt was not even looking at herself, she really had no place to talk sense.
Finally, she decided to go straight to An Zhongtao.
An Zhongtao was in his study when Shen Biyun came in and said, "Cousin, punish me, Yaozu is speaking too unlike ......"
"What does he know as a child, it's Ming Xuan's problem. I've already disciplined him." An Zhongtao put down his books and stood up, "Don't blame yourself for this matter, by the way, how is Yaozu's injury?"
"The doctor came to check again and said he was growing well, only the medicine had to be continued, and I disciplined him, but the boy somehow decided I could marry you ......" she said, smiling shyly, " The little boy too really."
When An Zhongtao heard the words, he was also moved in his heart, and then looked at Shen Biyun's shy appearance, just like the eighteen young girls, and surprisingly forgot what to say.
And just when the two were in love, suddenly a maid knocked on the door, saying that Qin Yaozu was crying and looking for his mother.
Shen Biyun regretted but had to go back, and the little ancestor was sitting on the bed, howling: "Mother, where have you been, don't you want Yaozu anymore?"
Shen Biyun was helpless: "Don't worry, wherever Mother is, she will take you with her."
"Then you can't leave this courtyard ......," Qin Yaozu began to play the fool.
From then on, after a short shout from Qin Yaozu, Shen Biyun was really trapped in this courtyard.
When she didn't go to the front garden, the front garden also calmed down, and Lian Jinrong got what she wanted for the time being.
She seems to have forgotten about her dealings with Lian Jingyu, and even runs to the Dong Nuan Court to deliver some small objects and tease An Mingchen.
When she looked at An Mingchen, she could not help but sigh, This child is so beautiful. His features are so bright and clear, even better than An Zhong Tao's, not to mention An Mingxuan's, who is no match for him. When she thought about it, her heart was tingling again.
The birth of this first son will steal the limelight, property and power, and when she thinks of this, she can't help but want to revive the ambition she has temporarily put aside.
If human beings didn't have disputes over interests, perhaps there would be no more wars.
An Qing Ran knew that her mother had agreed to her Yiniang’s request to send An Ming Xuan back to her. She did not have any reaction, because she knew it was only a matter of time.
After all, her own father still had feelings for her Yiniang. Besides, it was time to use people, so she was one of them for the time being.
This latest fuss shows that her strategy is working, and that Lian Jinrong is really a good fighter.
Faced with the messy situation, An Qingran's heart didn't feel any better.
She only hoped that this Shen Biyun would realise the power and know how to withdraw and advance.
Lian Jingyu was as steady as a mountain with regard to what was happening.
No matter who wanted in or out, she was still the matriarch of the General's residence. It was just that the feeling in her heart was not good.
"Mother, do you see if your brother has grown again compared to yesterday?" An Qingran hugged An Mingchen and spoke to Lian Jingyu.
Lian Jingyu looked back, "You hold him every day, can you still see it? I just think he has grown a little bigger than when he was born."
"That's quite a lot of growth." An Qinran smiled as she lifted An Mingchen up, "And heavier too."
An Mingchen giggled and drooled all over her face, An Qingran smiled as she put him on the bed and wiped her own face: "Mother, my younger brother is so big now, he will be able to crawl in a while, the days have gone by so quickly."
"Yes, Shen Biyun has been here in the mansion for more than half a year ......"
Seeing her mother suddenly mention Shen Biyun, An Qingran understood in her heart, if she didn't consider Shen Biyun a thorn in her side, she wouldn't have casually mentioned it.
An Qing Ran also sighed, "It's time for her to leave too, why didn't anyone go and tell her?"
"Leave? She already thinks of this place as home, and your father has no intention of letting her go. Last night I mentioned this and your father said that she is also oddly pitiful, how can we drive her away, moreover, Qin Yaozu's leg still hasn't healed ......In fact, I can hear that your father is still quite concerned about her. After all, she is his cousin. If I say more profoundly, your father might blame me."
"Well, indeed, Mother, don't worry, I know what to do." An Qing Ran had an idea in her mind.
Lian Jin Yu looked at her daughter with such an expression, and for some reason, her heart felt as if she had gained a backbone. She did not know how she could feel this way about her daughter, as if she was not thirteen years old, as if she could do everything.
It seemed that she was getting old.
"This woman, newly widowed but longing for a different life, who dresses up all day like a bewitching siren and doesn't even half miss her late husband. She was so determined to elope in the first place, and now she's already thinking of another so easily, it's really interesting." An Qing Ran's voice is very cold, she really does not like Shen Bi Yun a bit, this woman is too proactive and too frivolous.
She disliked it very much.
But Shen Biyun came, she knew she was not welcome within the General's residence, but she still paid a visit. Once she saw that both mother and daughter were there, she put the things in her hand down: "Cousin sister-in-law, these are the clothes I made for little Mingchen…..”
An Qing Ran smoothly took it over, her needlework was really good, the stitches went very fine, An Qing Ran smiled: "There are special embroiderers in this general's residence, why do you need to work so hard, aunt?"
