Xu Huan walked around her, but still couldn't remember this person.

"Do you know where Aunt Mei lives?"

Xu Huan looked at her delicate and white hands, and then at her clothes that were already in the style of a few years ago. Is the Hou family already so poor?
"Back to my aunt, you are following me. I will take you there right now."

Liu Baoer lowered his head and led the way. He didn't turn around until he reached Xingyu Pavilion.

Xu Huan didn't notice that Liu Baoer walked very fast when he went back, wanting to let out all his anger.

Everyone treats her as a maid, how could she not hate...

After straightening my clothes, I entered the yard and found that there were not many people there. The yard was very quiet, but there were a few children's toys scattered on the chairs. I guess they hadn't had time to take them back.

The maid at the door saw her coming in and hurriedly came to greet her.

"Greetings to my great aunt."

"Get up, where is your master?"

Xu Huan has been in for a long time. He looked around and didn't see Meilan coming out to pick him up.

"Go back to my aunt, our aunt has just gone to bed, so it is not convenient to see guests."

It's only what time, why are you already asleep?

Not sick, right?
The maid standing at the door did not dare to stop her and allowed her to enter the back room.

Just as he was about to call her name, he turned around and saw the figure lying inside through the screen.

I walked over quietly and saw that she was still asleep.

The maid next to her moved a stool for her to sit on, and she just sat there, looking at her sleeping face.

For a time, I recalled a lot.

She remembered that at that time, Meilan was not as straightforward as she is now.

She is a frail and shy girl, and her ears turn red for a long time when someone calls her baby name.

Not like now, like a cat whose hair is about to explode at any time.

Aunt Mei always felt like someone was staring at her, and her sleep was unnatural and restless.

I opened my eyes slightly and saw a person sitting in front of me!

"I'm scared to death! Auntie, why didn't you let me know when you came? I've made you wait for so long in vain."

Aunt Mei said and got up to get ready.

The maid next to me came forward to help him change his clothes, and everything was done quickly.

While she was putting on her shoes, Aunt Mei suddenly remembered that a servant came over and said that her eldest aunt wanted to invite her to her courtyard for a chat.

Thinking of this, Xu Huan's eyes looked a little more guilty.

How could she forget this!
Xu Huan didn't say anything, just looked at her quietly.

She had changed so much from before. If it weren't for that familiar face, she wouldn't have dared to think of Aunt Mei and the former Song Meilan.

"Sujuan! My aunt has been here for so long. Why don't you serve tea? Go quickly!"

He winked at the maid and faced Xu Huan with a smile.

She really didn't want to laugh, and she couldn't.

But who told that person to be the prince's sister?

"Why aren't you wearing the bracelet I gave you a few days ago?"

Xu Huan frowned. That bracelet was her favorite in the past and she couldn't bear to take it off. Why doesn't she like wearing it now?
"My aunt doesn't know something. The second young master is raised in my yard. The child is lively and active by nature. It would be a pity to bump into such a good thing."

She stretched her sleeves longer to cover her wrists.

Why does my aunt care so much about her?It's really strange.

Hearing her mention the second young master, Xu Huan couldn't help but panic.Although I knew it was an adopted child, I still felt uncomfortable in my heart.

Now that we've talked about him, we can't help but ask one more question, "How is the second young master doing lately? How are your homework?"

Mentioning this, Aunt Mei finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She was frightened to death. She thought she had angered this aunt because of her poor hospitality, but who knew that was not the case at all!People just care about whether their nephew is well or not!

"Don't worry, auntie, the second young master is doing well here. I always come with the second young master for food and supplies first, and I have never treated him badly.

As for her studies, Madam has already made arrangements with the teacher today. I believe that the teacher will come to teach at the house in a few days. "

Hearing such an answer, Xu Huan was obviously not very satisfied.

How can you stick to that stepson for everything?

Why not be kind to yourself? The son born to someone else was born to someone else, so what's the use of being nice to him?

Why bother yourself now?

"Tomorrow I will ask the maid to bring you some pieces of silk and satin that are newly available in the cloth market, so that you can make some new clothes."

Of course Aunt Mei was happy when she heard about making new clothes, but she didn't understand what her eldest aunt's intention was.

Do you want to thank her for her concern and care for the second young master?

maybe.

"Then I'd like to thank my aunt for thanking her for taking the trouble!"

"If you have time, go to my place for a walk, sit around, and chat more. In this house, even though you are back home, you are still very bored on weekdays."

"Yes, I will keep it in mind."

After sending Xu Huan away, she felt that those few words just made her sweat all over.

She didn't want to sit in Xu Huan's room at all, let alone chat with her.

God knows what she had in mind.

Instead of getting closer to my wife, I have close contact with my aunt. How can this not make people think deeply about her intentions?
The next day, a banquet was held in the Wuding Hou Mansion just to celebrate the old lady's sixtieth birthday.

Lin Qingwu took Xu Hengpu, Aunt Mei took Xu Zongen and sat in the lower seat, while the old lady sat in the upper seat, accepting blessings from relatives and friends.

This made her very proud. So many people were flattering her, which made her feel a little elated.

She waved to Xu Zongen and asked him to sit next to her. Seeing how much the old lady loved her great-grandson, the people around them praised Xu Zongen for a while.

Even if she knew he was a concubine and an adopted son, so what, the old lady couldn't help but like this child.

Lin Qingwu patted Heng Pu sitting next to him and comforted him.

"Mother, why doesn't my son please the old lady?"

He couldn't understand why the old lady still loved him so much when his brother was idle every day and only knew how to have fun. It seemed that no matter how hard he worked, the old lady would not look at him twice.

"Heng Pu, you don't need so many hypocritical people around you. What's on the surface is all false. True friendship must be felt with the heart.

If the old lady doesn't like you, no matter how good you are, she won't like you. Why not work hard to make yourself better?How about becoming the person you like? "

Heng Pu lowered his head and thought seriously about his mother's words.

Yes, my mother is right, you can't deny yourself just because of other people's opinions.

"A son should remember his mother's teachings."

Aunt Mei was also listening and felt that the eldest young master was really a sensible child.

He raised his eyes inadvertently and met Xu Huan's gaze.
