An Xilin held Aunt Lin's hand tightly, and a cold light flashed in her eyes: "I have long heard from my cousin that the princess of the Protector's Palace will invite ladies from the aristocratic family to enjoy plum blossoms in Shili Plum Garden. Mother, Lin'er also Want to go.”
Lin Wan actually didn't want to mention her maternal family. In that family, she had no status and was suppressed everywhere. However, no matter how much he doesn't like her, he still has to ask his daughter to get close to her.
Aunt Lin sighed when she heard such a gentle and well-behaved daughter: "It's all my fault. If mother was your father's wife, why would Lin'er have to work so hard? She would definitely go to such a banquet."
Mentioning this, An Xilin's gentle eyebrows frowned slightly, and her eyes were full of resentment. She was not the child of her real wife, which made An Xilin feel very resentful, and her delicate skin was filled with a layer of haze due to the deep resentment.
It doesn't matter that her father loves her, loves her and praises her, after all, she can't compare to her noble status.
Therefore, from the day she became sensible, she knew that she wanted to surpass her sister.
After a while, a nun in blue walked in and whispered: "The eldest lady's carriage is out."
Aunt Lin had a sinister look on her face and nodded secretly, then the nun in blue withdrew respectfully.
An Xilin was feeling resentful. She looked at her mother's eyes and said, "Mom, what are you doing out there, madam?"
"The eldest lady fell into the water. The Bodhisattva in Jingyue Temple was very effective. Madam went to pray for the eldest lady." Aunt Lin smiled proudly.
An Xilin's head turned quickly and she said anxiously: "Mom, do you have any ideas?"
I saw a vicious light in Aunt Lin's eyes and a proud smile on her lips: "Your father is already on his way back now. He must pass through Jingyue Temple when he comes back from Jincheng."

Junlan Garden is the yard of the mistress of the Hou Mansion. An Xiyue remembers that the swing made of vines in the yard was planted by her father when she was a child. Her father still carried her on a horse in this yard. When she was a child, her father He loved her very much, but he also loved his aunt's child.
An Xiyue looked at the supposedly prosperous Junlan Garden. Because her father often did not step into her mother's yard, the servants slowly began to neglect her.
An Xiyue's eyes suddenly became moist as she recalled all the past events.
At this moment, Xiu'er saw a small figure in the rockery cave and said strangely: "There seems to be a young master in that cave."
An Xiyue retracted her thoughts and walked closer to see a pink and cloud-like little guy hidden in the fake cave. Who could it be if it wasn't her brother Yuner.
An Tingyun suddenly saw An Xiyue. Her short legs and short hands came out. She looked silly, pouting her pink lips, revealing a pair of big, bright and clear eyes, staring at An Xi closely. Yue, kept calling "I want a hug".
An Xiyue felt a pain in her heart. She could hardly remember what her younger brother Yuner looked like when he was a child.
In her previous life, after her mother died, her younger brother followed Aunt Lin. She didn't know how such a demented brother managed to survive after living with Aunt Lin.
Every time, he clamored for a hug, but could not say anything else. He looked dumbfounded, and the doctor said there was something wrong with his head. Later, he also treated my grandfather, but it was not cured and the cause could not be found.
An Xiyue secretly thought that in her previous life, An Xilin said that her brother was poisoned. Even her grandfather didn't know what kind of poison it was. An Xiyue clenched her fists bitterly, thinking that these were all caused by Aunt Lin, and her eyes became even colder. flash.
An Xiyue's heart ached. After her death in her previous life, she didn't know what An Xilin and Nangong Hao did to Yoon'er. Would it be the same as before? In order to show her stepmother's benevolence and charity, she didn't kill him. Maybe after After her death, Yun'er had no protective barrier, and they also... An Xiyue didn't dare to think about it, and held An Tingyun tightly in her arms.
"Sister, hold Yuner, Yoner must be good." An Xiyue looked around, but could not find the maid who was following her. Her eyes turned cold, knowing that these lazy people must not take Yoner seriously.
Suddenly, a voice called from the other side of the rockery: "Young master, come out and stop playing hide and seek with the slaves."
"Young Master."......
An Xiyue walked out with the stupid Yoon'er in her arms. When Xiu'er saw that the stupid young master was hiding alone, he must have been bullied, and said angrily: "How did you take care of the young master?"
"Eldest, eldest lady..." When the maids Cui'er and Hong'er saw An Xiyue in front of them, they asked the young master to run into the yard alone to avoid being blamed by the eldest lady. They quickly kowtowed and said, "The eldest lady is going to pray for the eldest lady. The young master fell asleep in the house and ran out for some reason."
When An Xiyue heard this, he looked at Yoon'er who was hiding in his arms. He was still dumbfounded and couldn't ask anything.
At this time, An Xiyue couldn't think too much and asked anxiously: "Where are you going? How long have you been there?"
"I went there as soon as I got up in the morning. I brought my servants and my mother who was always waiting with me. I'll come back as soon as the eldest lady says." Hong'er, the maid, is well-behaved. They usually play with the young master, and they can also talk a little.
Then Cui'er continued: "I'm going to Jingyue Temple in the east of the city. Today is the Laba Festival. Cui's mother said that I went to the temple to pray to God and worship the Buddha."
An Xiyue didn't have time to think about it. She didn't remember such a scene in her previous life, and now she felt like something was wrong.
An Xiyue was afraid that something would happen again, and it was important to find her mother now.
An Xiyue handed Yun'er to Xiu'er. She didn't know how many Aunt Lin's people there were in Junlanyuan, but Xiu'er was not Aunt Lin's person, and ordered her in a cold voice: "If you can't keep the young master safe, wait until I come back." I will never spare you."
Xiu'er nodded in agreement, holding An Tingyun in her arms with the expression of a strong man who looked forward to death.
The Laba Festival in the Great Northern Dynasties is a very grand festival, and both the rich and nobles as well as the poor families pay special attention to it. In addition to cooking Laba porridge, going to temples to pray to gods and Buddhas, offering incense to Bodhisattvas, and praying for Buddha’s blessings is also essential. Anxi Yue She knew that she might be overthinking, but she had to be careful when resurrecting her life.
There is Jingyue Temple to the east out of the city. It is said that the incense in Jingyue Temple is very popular because the Bodhisattva here is particularly efficacious. Mei Yunluo travels simply and unobtrusively. He only brings a servant who can drive the carriage, two maids and a portable mother. Sincerely Sincerely, he offered incense to the Bodhisattva, added money for sesame oil, and kowtowed three times.
A nun in coarse gray clothes clasped his hands together and said slowly and compassionately: "Madam, don't worry, the eldest lady is haunted by a water ghost. The poor nun will do the magic for the eldest lady. After reciting sutras for seventy-seven forty-nine days, she will be freed from the water ghost." Damn it, the eldest lady is of course fine."
Mei Yunluo has good facial features, although she is not as charming and enchanting as Aunt Lin, but a daughter raised from a wealthy and noble family is naturally very dignified, quiet, elegant, and unhurried.
The day she learned that An Xiyue had fallen into the water, Mei Yunluo went to see her daughter. On that day, she was so frightened that she could barely breathe while wiping her nose. Her son was already stupid. If she didn't have her daughter anymore, she would If she follows them to death, she will not live anymore.
"Thank you, Mrs. Hui'an. If you can protect my daughter's health, I am willing to shorten my life by ten years." Mei Yunluo is still very young, but her face has a light khaki color, which makes her look a little aged.
The incense in Jingyue Temple was very popular, and there were an unusually large number of people coming today. Mei Yunluo was thinking about her son at home, and wanted to go back as soon as possible after entering the incense. She didn't find anything strange, and said: "Mother Cui, please donate more sesame oil money. Let’s go back.”
Cui's mother's palms were all sweaty. She hurriedly pulled the eldest lady and persuaded her slowly: "The Laba porridge in Jingyue Temple is also very delicious. Madam hasn't eaten yet. Please wait for Madam to take some before going back."
In order to show his sincerity, Mei Yunluo went out early today, and indeed did not have breakfast. In addition, today is the Laba Festival, so eating Laba porridge is the best, and the Laba porridge at Jingyue'an is good, so he nodded and agreed: "Okay. "
Then, Mother Cui supported the eldest lady and walked slowly towards the side courtyard...
