Slowly Deep Love

Changle found Nanny Li, and the two of them happily went back to Qingxiang Pavilion together. On the way, they saw a maid who was walking and running in a panic.

It was the man who was sweeping the floor.

Changle was startled and immediately stopped him and asked, "Why are you so flustered?"

The maid was called Jing'er. She was sweating with anxiety. She turned around and saw Li Ma and Changle. She ran over and said breathlessly as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw, "Oh no! Qian Yue was punished in Yuelong Courtyard!"

"Why were you punished? Do you know the reason?" Nanny Li's heart trembled, and she felt something was wrong.

"Didn't I tell you that when you see Qian Yue, ask her to come back quickly!" Changle stamped his feet anxiously.

"When I arrived at the gate of Yuelong Courtyard, Qian Yue had already been punished, and Lin Xiaoniang was also there!" Jing'er felt aggrieved and afraid.

"The young lady specifically said that you should not suffer any loss today! I think the young lady and the son-in-law have a feud today." Changle looked at Nanny Li, thinking that she would come up with a solution.

Nanny Li frowned and paced in place. Finally, she said, "Changle, you and Jing'er go back first and tell the young lady that I'm fine. Tell her about Qian Yue as well. Remember to keep the young lady steady. She is young and energetic, and she gets excited when doing things. You follow her and never come out of Qingxiang Pavilion. I'll go to Yuelong Courtyard to check things out first."

The three men split into two groups and left.

Nanny Li stood at the gate of Yuelong Courtyard and said politely to the guard, "Please inform the guard that Nanny Li of Qingxiang Pavilion wishes to see the eldest master!"

The guard went in to report, and came back a moment later, saying to her, "You can go in."

Madam Li smiled politely and said, "Thank you for your help."

She walked into Yuelong Courtyard. Every tree and blade of grass looked the same as she remembered. This was the first time she had stepped into this courtyard since Minglu moved away.

After walking for a while, she heard the woman sobbing softly. Nanny Li's heart tightened and she quickened her pace. She saw Qian Yue lying on the wooden board with a few stains of blood on the clothes on her buttocks.

She was so angry that she ran over and asked distressedly, "Qian Yue, are you okay now?"

When Qian Yue heard that it was Nanny Li's voice, she raised her head and tears streamed down her face. She wanted to cry loudly out of grievance, but when she opened her mouth, no sound came out. She just bit the back of her hand and kept crying.

"Madame Li is here!" Upon hearing the soft and charming voice, Madame Li's blood boiled. She stood up straight and turned to look.

But there is no sign of my son-in-law!

"What did Qian Yue do wrong to deserve such punishment?" asked Nanny Li.

"Mammy, don't be anxious! Why don't you listen to what she says herself?" Lin Yuan shook her waist and walked over slowly.

"Everyone in Qingxiang Pavilion keeps to their duties and does not argue with others. It is not my turn to discipline Madam Ming's people!"

When Lin Yuan heard the word "little girl", her face changed suddenly, and her eyes were filled with hatred. She said, "I heard that Madam Ming barged into Chengyun Courtyard today, and the maid she supervised was also a reckless person. She could enter Yuelong Courtyard at will."

"It was you who let me in!" Qian Yue endured the pain, raised her upper body, pointed her finger at Lin Yuan's face, feeling angry and anxious.

"When did I say such a thing? This is Yuelong Courtyard, not Zhuyu Pavilion. How can you make the decision?"

"There are two guards guarding the door. How could Qian Yue, a woman, get in?" Nanny Li said sarcastically.

Lin Yuan turned away without looking at her and said, "Forget it, just take her away!"

"You are just a young girl, who is in charge of disciplining Madam Ming in Yuelong Courtyard. Who gave you the courage?" Nanny Li gritted her teeth in hatred but spoke calmly.

"It's fine if she barged in, but she also used offensive words. What's wrong with me? This is much better than being kicked out of Yuelongyuan!"

"You are the one who can handle things, Miss Lin. The whole Taiwei Mansion is saying that Miss Ming voluntarily moved out of Yuelong Courtyard for the sake of Third Sister's health. Her spirit of sacrifice is so touching. How come you are kicked out?"

Yue Weiwei strode over and imitated Lin Yuan's twisting of her waist. When she said the three words "drive out", she pointed her index finger at her three times in an awkward and exaggerated manner.

When Nanny Li saw Yue Weiwei appear, she was surprised and frightened, but she couldn't help but laugh a little.

Changle just saw Li Mama and felt very guilty. Yue Weiwei couldn't hold her back! Seeing this scene, she couldn't help laughing.

"After I woke up, I found out that they were not getting along. It turned out that you were the one behind it. You spread rumors and misled people. You spoke without restraint and deliberately tried to sow discord between the siblings!" Yue Weiwei told Lin Yuan everything that Li Hengan had said to her.

"You are talking nonsense!" Lin Yuan was so angry that he threw his sleeves and stared at Yue Weiwei with hatred, as if he wanted to eat her.

"Third sister believed your rumors and misunderstood her brother. She thought her brother wanted to drive Madam Ming away and used her as an excuse. But Third sister is a kind and soft-hearted person. She just felt sorry for her sister-in-law and took her anger out on her brother."

Yue Weiwei approached Lin Yuan and continued, "I finally found the reason today. I have to talk to Third Sister and help her resolve the knot in her heart so that the misunderstanding won't continue."

She looked at Lin Yuan's face, which turned pale and blue, and felt relieved. She turned around with disdain and asked, "Where is Li Hengan? In this Yuelong Courtyard, when the tiger is not at home, the monkey is the king!"

Li Chu arrived shortly after Yue Weiwei entered Yue Longyuan. As soon as he entered the door, he heard her impassioned speech and couldn't help but get excited.

In fact, he had quite a few complaints about Lin Yuan, especially after Li Hengan helped solve her brother's murder, his only evaluation of her was that she was a beauty who brought disaster.

In the past, Madam Ming and Lin Yuan seldom met. If they met, Madam Ming would act like a mistress and wait for Lin Yuan to greet her, then she would go through the motions coldly without any formalities.

Today is completely different. After waking up, Madam Ming is like reborn. Her heroic words make public opinion take a sharp turn and all point to Lin Yuan.

If it can really change the relationship between the two siblings, it would be a great achievement!

Li Chu was about to step forward to greet Madam Ming when Li Hengan walked out at this moment.

"It's so strange to listen to you speak. In the first half of the conversation, you kept referring to Madam Ming, saying 'she, she, she'. But when you were about to talk to Heng Ying, you suddenly changed to 'I'. I wonder why this change happened?"

Yue stared at him and then glanced at Qian Yue. Lin Yuan was just instigating him to do this.

She thought about it and said to herself loudly in a puzzled manner, "Did I analyze it wrongly? Does the eldest master simply want to drive Minglu out?"

Everyone in the yard was suddenly stunned. Yue Weiwei said, "No wonder Hengying insisted. She sees things clearly!"

Li Hengan clenched his fists, walked up to Yue Weiwei, and whispered, "If you embarrass Lin Yuan again, be careful of Luo Zhuangzhou and your reputation!"

She took one look at the face, disgust flooding from her eyes, and her mind was in a trance.

He was very proud, raised one corner of his mouth, smiled wickedly, and was about to leave when he heard Yue Weiwei say, "Senior and I have a clean record, and we have never crossed the line!"

"Senior"?

When Li Hengan heard this for the first time, he showed a puzzled expression and stared at her face for a while. He thought that "senior" should mean senior.

When did these two study together?

"Didn't you lose your memory? How come you remember that he was your senior?" Li Hengan decided to get to the bottom of it and expose her true face.

Yue Weiwei was speechless for a moment, not knowing what to do. Li Heng stared at her quietly.

The two stood together, whispering, and the people in the yard were stunned again.
