The female supporting role is really here to mess things up

As soon as Song Yi entered the mansion, he was called to the presence of Madam Song by the maid sent by Madam Song. Madam Song directly and clearly expressed her request to him. After listening to it, Song Yi frowned and resisted.

The reason why he didn't want to get along with his cousin was not entirely because of the many bad rumors about her circulating in the outside world. After all, she was his aunt's only blood relative and a family relative.

But Song Yi knew that he was cold by nature, and getting along with women would only make him feel troublesome. In the past, he would stay as far away from women as possible. Now there is no maid in his yard, and he takes care of his daily life by himself.

Usually, it was troublesome to interact with women other than his mother and grandmother. Women's minds were fickle and he was not good at figuring them out. Even though his grandmother insisted on her own opinion, Song Yi decided to tell the truth.

"Grandma, I can only say that I will try my best to accompany my cousin. You also know that there are too many things going on in the Ministry of Personnel recently, and my grandson is tied up in affairs and cannot get away. When you summoned my grandson back today, you only told the people below that I would be back in three days."

When Old Madam Song heard this, she knew that this was the biggest concession her grandson had made, so she could only nod helplessly. Before she could sigh, the servant in the mansion came in to report.

"Madam, Young Master, Miss Lu and her friends' sedan chairs are about to arrive. Nanny Li sent someone to inform them in advance. They will arrive in a few blocks."

When Mrs. Song heard this, she didn't even have time to sigh, and immediately stood up. She pulled Song Yi and walked towards the door. Seeing that his grandmother was so anxious, Song Yi quickly changed their posture and supported his grandmother to walk forward.

Before Mrs. Song even reached the door, she began to look forward, hoping that her little granddaughter would arrive soon. In the distance, two sedan chairs with the Duke's Mansion logo were slowly approaching this side, one in front and one behind.

Old Madam Song patted Song Yi's hand, signaling him to go faster, and asked her grandson to support her. She walked straight to the gate before stopping, her body still looking towards the road ahead.

The sedan bearers finally appeared at the other end of the road. Two strong men carried the sedan and walked in front in an orderly manner.

Lu Qingxi heard the noise in front and had a premonition that they were almost there. He reached out and lifted a corner of the right curtain, looking at the scenery outside through the gap in the sedan chair.

The people who were waiting saw a slender hand lift up a corner, but it fell down again after two seconds.

Song Yi looked at the white, tender and slender hand that suddenly stretched out, and felt a little itchy in his heart, as if something had scratched it. When the sedan chair landed, the itchy feeling in his heart was relieved.

After getting off the sedan, he heard some noise coming from inside. A girl in green clothes with a double bun got off the sedan first. Song Yi's eyes fell on the girl's hands, and he retracted his eyes in two seconds. He knew in his heart that it was not the same hands just now.

The girl in green was naturally Xiaohuan. After getting off the sedan chair, Xiaohuan first bowed to Old Madam Song, then stood beside the sedan chair and spoke to the person inside.

"Miss, you can get out of the sedan now."

As the words fell, Song Yi felt his heart lift for some reason. Just seeing Lu Qingxi's hand in Xiaohuan's hand, his heart began to beat wildly. When he saw Lu Qingxi's face, his breathing stopped for a moment.

She is like a peerless beauty walking out of an ancient painting, with a stunning appearance and a graceful figure, which makes people fall in love with her at first sight.

Her face is as delicate as a painting, her skin is as white as snow, and as delicate as if it could be blown away. Her eyebrows are as dark as distant mountains, and her eyes are as affectionate as autumn water. Her bright eyes seem to contain the stars and the sea, shining brightly. Her nose is high, her lips are as red as cherries, and her tightly closed lips reveal a hint of indifference, which makes people feel that she is difficult to approach but can't help but yearn for her.

As the beauty got closer, his heartbeat became louder and louder. When the beauty came in front of him, Song Yi felt that the only sound in the world was his own heartbeat.

"Grandma, your granddaughter finally sees you. Do you miss your precious granddaughter?"

Lu Qingxi acted like the original owner and acted like a spoiled child, which made the old lady smile from ear to ear. She went forward and hugged her precious granddaughter, thinking that her granddaughter was the cutest thing in the world.

"Yes, yes, there is no one more precious than my Xi'er." Looking at the extremely beautiful granddaughter in front of him, he couldn't help but reach out and touch his baby's cheeks and head. He was amazed at the beauty of his granddaughter.

Lu Qingxi cooperated by leaning his head towards Old Lady Song's hand. Feeling the warmth from Old Lady Song's palm, he knew that the old lady in front of him really cared about him, and the smile in his eyes deepened.

Then, he felt a burning gaze staring at him. He looked behind Old Madam Song and saw a man in green.

His face has clear contours, like a finely crafted work of art, with soft and elegant lines. His eyebrows are like a crescent moon, his eyes are like autumn water, and his eyes seem to hide thousands of stars. His nose is straight, his lips are rosy, and his slightly upturned mouth corners have a faint smile that is intoxicating.

After being amazed by the man's outstanding appearance, Lu Qingxi turned her gaze back to Old Madam Song, conveying her doubts with her eyes.

When Old Madam Song saw the confusion in her granddaughter's eyes, she paused for a few seconds before understanding what she meant. She was both angry and amused.

"I can't even recognize my cousin. You two are really unfamiliar." After saying that, he turned around and glared at his grandson, then looked back at his lovely granddaughter. Although there was a complaint in his words, it was obviously directed at his grandson alone.

Mrs. Song's heart was biased to begin with, and when she saw her particularly attractive granddaughter, her heart was even more biased. How could such a beautiful granddaughter of her own be wrong?

But Song Yi didn't say anything for a long time, and he turned back in confusion. Seeing his grandson, who never had any expression, staring at Xi'er blankly, the corners of his mouth unconsciously curled up. He immediately understood that this kid must be stupid.

Old Madam Song couldn't help but laugh and coughed twice. Finally, Song Yi came back to his senses. Song Yi lowered his head in embarrassment, his eyes flickered several times before he spoke.

"I am usually negligent. I have too many trivial things to do and I really can't spare the time. This is why I don't communicate much with my cousin. I will definitely spend more time with my cousin in the future."

When he said the last sentence, he looked firmly at the stunning woman in front of him. Outsiders might think that the man was very calm, but if you look closely, you can easily find that the man's face was red from behind his ears to the base of his neck.

Lu Qingxi sighed in her heart, the man in front of her has outstanding appearance, worthy of being the heroine's white moonlight. Moreover, he is a rare man with both good looks and talents, but he has never had a good impression on the heroine.

Then I thought about how this cousin in the story didn't like the original owner. I thought that he and I had no connection, so I didn't want to have a good relationship with him.

After a polite nod, Jiu turned to Old Madam Song again. He couldn't help but stepped forward and shook Old Madam Song's hand and acted like a spoiled child. "Grandma, Xi'er seems a little thirsty. Can you come in and have a cup of tea first?"

Mrs. Song looked at her granddaughter's attitude towards her grandson, which was really perfunctory. She was a little disappointed that her grandson's appearance could not attract Xier. Now the two of them stood together, and their looks were really a match. After a few seconds, she heard her granddaughter say that she was hungry, and she quickly came back to her senses. She put her arm around her granddaughter's waist and walked into the mansion.

"Then hurry in. How could grandma bear to let my family's Xi'er starve? Let me take you to see the yard I've prepared for you first."

Song Yi naturally also felt his cousin's distant attitude towards him, and his eyes dimmed a little.

I began to recall the past times when we were together. It seemed that we didn't meet often, and the image of my cousin became blurred. But my cousin seemed to be quite enthusiastic towards me in the past.

Last year, my cousin seemed to want me to teach her the piano, but I was a little impatient at that time and refused directly in front of all the servants in the mansion.

After my cousin was so bluntly humiliated by me, she never took the initiative to look for me again. Although I felt a little guilty at the time, I was more relieved. Thinking about it this way, my cousin is still polite to me now, and it is all my fault as a cousin. I sighed and followed the group of people in front.

Song Yi followed them all the way and stopped at the entrance of the bamboo garden. Although it was his own yard, it was still inappropriate for him as a man to enter the boudoir of an unmarried woman. He said goodbye to the two people in front of him, watched them enter the room, and turned around and walked towards his grandmother's yard when he could no longer see the women.

Old Madam Song stayed with her granddaughter and chatted for a while before leaving. Before leaving, she specifically asked her granddaughter if she wanted to eat any dishes.

After waiting for Old Lady Song to leave, Lu Qingxi collapsed on the bed. He had been sitting in a sedan chair for three hours in the afternoon, and his waist was really exhausted. Thinking that he had to go to the main hall to have dinner with Old Lady Song in the evening, he decided to sleep on the bed first. He told Xiaohuan that he needed to rest and would call her when Old Lady Song was ready to eat.

Seeing that her young lady looked sleepy, Xiaohuan didn't have the heart to stop her and hurriedly helped her to rest.

As soon as Old Madam Song entered her yard, she saw her grandson standing in the yard, and as soon as he saw her, he walked towards her. He walked over and held her hand, but he kept opening and closing his mouth but didn't make a sound, as if he was struggling with how to start.

She seemed to have guessed something in her heart but still pretended to look at her grandson with confusion, "Yier, why don't you go back to your own yard to rest? You just came back from the Ministry of Personnel. You must take care of yourself and go back to your own yard to have a good rest." After saying this, Old Lady Song did not move forward and tried to pull her hand out.

Seeing this, Song Yi also became anxious and spoke quickly. "Grandma, I want to tell you about my cousin." He looked up and saw his grandmother's smiling face. He realized that his grandmother was teasing him on purpose, and he was curious about what happened to him now.

Thinking about the stupid things I said before my little cousin came, about only watching for three days, my grandmother tried to persuade me for a long time but I didn't change my mind.

Now that I know I was wrong, I have to ask my grandmother to help me and my little cousin interact more and clear up the misunderstandings between us.

"Grandma, I am the one who is confused. I was ignorant in the past. My aunt died early, leaving only my cousin as her bloodline. I must protect her well. Moreover, I felt bad when I saw my cousin's cold attitude towards me today. It was because I ignored my cousin in the past. Now I want to make it up to my cousin. I hope that grandma will help me."

After saying this, Song Yi heaved a sigh of relief, feeling that the anger he had been holding back had finally come out after confessing his inner feelings. He stared at Old Madam Song, and for some reason, when Old Madam Song saw the look in her grandson's eyes, she thought of the look of a three-year-old child asking for candy, and couldn't help laughing.

Old Madam Song took her grandson's hand and patted it. "My son Yi'er is really good. He knows that he shouldn't be so cold to Xi'er in the past. It's not too late to correct his mistakes now. Grandmother only has two young people like you two. Your parents only care about themselves. They have been traveling outside for several years. They only know how to send letters and don't know how to come back. Your little cousin is now living alone in the Shangshu Mansion. Her father doesn't love her. Grandmother is really worried. I just hope that you two can get closer and I hope you can take care of your cousin more."

Song Yi's expression became more serious after hearing what his grandmother said, and he knelt down solemnly and clasped his fists towards Old Madam Song. "It's my fault. I didn't take my grandmother's good intentions to heart. My cousin is my blood relative, the only bloodline left by my aunt. I will definitely protect my cousin in the future. Besides, I felt a little strange when I saw my cousin today, and my heart kept beating uncontrollably."

Old Madam Song nodded as she listened, and raised her eyebrows unconsciously when she heard the last sentence, and stepped forward to help her grandson up. "Okay, get up quickly. Look, your robe is all dirty. Choose a suitable one to change into before dinner." She pointed to the stain on the corner of the robe.

She smiled and spoke again. "Xi'er will come to have dinner with me tonight, so you should come early too."

Song Yi's eyes lit up when he heard this. After thanking his grandmother, he immediately went back to the house to find some change of clothes.
