Chapter 49 049: Conspiracy

It's night, deeper and deeper.

A stove was lit in the house to dissipate the winter cold. Third Auntie only wore a piece of unlined clothing and sat on a chair while the maid combed her hair.

She stretched out her hand to touch the few creases in the corners of her eyes, and sighed sadly, "Xiaolu, am I getting old?"

Xiaolu combed her hair carefully, and said with a smile, "Auntie, you know how to take care of yourself like this, why do you feel that you are getting old? Look, doesn't the master still love you as usual?"

San Yiniang slowly lowered her hands, her pale lips couldn't even draw a smile, "Little Lu, do you remember when he came to the Green Bamboo Garden last time?"

Green Bamboo Garden is the name of Third Auntie's residence, a name that You Ting personally decided in the past.

Xiaolu bowed her head and brushed her hair, silent.

Third Aunt laughed at herself, her thin face was even more pure and self-pitying under the dim light, "Xiaolu, you are my dowry girl, everyone in my family thinks that I am doing well, but..."

"Master, you are here!"

The maidservant outside shouted happily, causing Third Aunt to shut her mouth suddenly. She and Xiaolu exchanged glances, and Xiaolu reacted first, and almost screamed, "Auntie! I just said that the master has you in his heart! Look, this Isn't it coming?"

Third Auntie's always calm and even a little dejected eyebrows relaxed at this moment, she helped Xiaolu stand up, "Quickly, bring me that cloud brocade dress, he loves to see me in it."

Xiaolu let out a hey happily, and made a gesture to get Yun Jinyi, but the door had already been pushed open, and You Ting strode in.

He came in a hurry, majestic, with the cold outside in his steps, his dark and cold eyes swept towards Xiaolu, "You go out first."

Xiaolu was frightened by his posture, and after saluting, she ran out quickly.

The third aunt looked at You Ting's appearance, and felt that something was wrong, the corners of her upturned mouth drooped, and she asked softly: "The master is here this time, but what use is there for me to be a concubine?"

"Smart." You Ting sat down on the chair one step at a time, his sharp eyebrows eased, he seemed happy for Third Auntie's intelligence, "After all these years, you still understand me best."

San Yiniang's mood seemed to be on a roller coaster, falling from the peak to the bottom in an instant, but her character still made her smile.

She sat on the chair next to her and raised her hand to pour tea for You Ting, "It's my honor to be able to help the master."

You Ting looked at her more pleasing to the eye, and his tone was much gentler than before, "You Xue came back this time, have you noticed that she is a little different?"

Unexpectedly, he would mention You Xue, San Yiniang's hands trembled slightly, and she almost poured the tea outside.

She said vaguely, "Yes."

More than a little different?It was just a different person.

One must know that You Xue never dared to look up at You Ting in the past, let alone confront You Ting in front of so many people.

"What are you so afraid of?" You Ting patted the back of San Yiniang's hand with a smile, but this smile was always somewhat cold and fake.

Third Auntie's expression was complicated, her eyebrows were downcast, and she was faintly afraid of what You Ting would say.

You Ting's smile deepened, "The expert you are looking for at home, I need him now."

"..."

The third aunt gently withdrew her hand, she didn't look up at Youting at all, some pain appeared in her eyes, "Master, Youxue...is just a child, there is no need for us to kill her, right?"
