Chu Qianyu frowned after hearing this and felt extremely disgusted.

...

This old lady came here just to cause trouble, but there was nothing wrong with what she said.

Chu Qianyu was thinking about how to answer.

Unexpectedly, Mo Yinan spoke up, "This prince does not need Qianqian to serve him. There are many servants in the mansion and serving people is their job. The princess only needs to manage the affairs of the mansion and drink tea and appreciate flowers with her close friends."

"As for the branching out you mentioned, I don't think it can be rushed. If fate brings us together, it will happen. But thank you for your concern, old lady."

After hearing what Mo Yinan said, Chu Jun smiled and nodded repeatedly.

"Yes, yes. Now he knows how to protect Qianqian. It seems that Qianqian should be living well in the palace."

Chu Qianyu was so surprised by Mo Yinan's sudden words that she couldn't close her mouth.

'Did you take the wrong medicine? He suddenly helped her speak.'

Chu Yuanshuang, who was far away, had a flash of jealousy in her eyes, and then lowered her head. Li Jing also curled her lips with a disdainful expression.

The old lady was choked by Mo Yinan again, and she felt even more uncomfortable.

"My grandson-in-law is right. There must be many servants in the palace. Qianqian is lucky. She is destined to enjoy a good life like her mother. This way, I can rest assured."

At this point, the old lady suddenly changed the subject and said, "Oh, I forgot that Aunt Jun'er said a few days ago that she would bring her granddaughter to see me. I was so excited when you came that I forgot about it. Aunt Liu, please go and see them quickly. Don't let them think that we are treating them poorly."

After the old lady finished speaking, she looked at Madam Liu with anxious eyes and hurriedly urged her.

Chu Qianyu sneered at this, it seems he is waiting here. He turned his head to look at Mo Yinan and raised his eyebrows to signal him.

Mo Yinan nodded and said to Chu Jun: "Father-in-law, since the old lady wants to meet guests, why don't we go somewhere else first. After all, it's not convenient for the king to be here."

After saying this, he stood up and walked outside, as if he had already made up his mind and didn't give anyone else any chance to refuse.

"Since mother wants to see my aunt, then we will go out before the Regent. And didn't Qianqian just say that she wanted to check Aying's pulse and health? Why don't we go out together? It happens that my aunt and mother haven't seen each other for a long time, so it's not good to disturb them." Chu Jun said.

The old lady watched Mo Yinan leave, feeling extremely anxious. Now Chu Jun wanted Chu Qianyu and Yunying to leave, so how could she let them do as they wished? If everyone left, what would she do next?

"No, how can your aunt come here and leave me alone? Since your grandson-in-law has already gone out, you can follow him. Yunying and Qianyu will stay with us."

"This..." Chu Jun looked a little embarrassed and glanced at Yunying and Chu Qianyu.

Yunying didn't want to see Chu Jun embarrassed, so she said, "Just listen to mother. It's not a good idea for Qianqian and I to go out now. Besides, I haven't seen my aunt for a long time, so it's good to see her."

"Okay then." Chu Jun agreed and walked out quickly.

When he reached the door, he said to the boy beside him, "Stay here and watch. If anything happens, come and let me know."

"Yes, don't worry, sir."

Soon, Nanny Liu came in with two women and a man.

The people in front of him were the old lady’s sister, Zhao Li, and her granddaughter, Zhao Qing.

The old lady sat at the top and watched the three people coming, then looked at the man behind her, she saw that he had a handsome appearance and was worthy of the title.

"Oh, big sister, you finally remembered your sister. I have had a really hard time these years. Fortunately, big sister, you remembered me."

In fact, the old lady had an average relationship with her younger sister since she was a child, and the man she married was not a good one. Now she is just living the life of an ordinary person.

After knowing that Chu Jun became a general, she wanted to come to the mansion to visit and improve their relationship, but the old lady hated such behavior at that time. She didn't help them when they were in trouble, and only remembered them when she saw them become successful.

So I sent someone to send him away because I hadn't seen him for many years.

I sent someone to find them a few days ago, and happened to learn about her family's current situation, so I came up with another idea.

But now she is a second-rank imperial official, and even if she is needed, the old lady remains calm and has no intention of trying to please, but sits upright in the chair without any movement.

Yunying had met this old woman once, and Chu Qianyu had only heard of her.

"Now that you're here, please sit down. You and I, sister, haven't seen each other for a long time, so we should catch up. Today is the day my granddaughter and grandson-in-law are coming back, but I didn't expect that you would meet at the same time by such a coincidence." The old lady spoke slowly with a dignified face, as if she was the head of the family.

Zhao Li lowered her head with a treacherous look in her eyes. Then she raised her head with a pitiful look, and nodded repeatedly as if she was flattered: "Thank you, elder sister, thank you, elder sister, for still remembering me, your sister."

Zhao Li sat down directly to the side with a "pop".

He had no manners at all when sitting. The old lady frowned at the sight.

Before she could say anything, she heard Zhao Li say to the brother and sister standing aside, "What are you still standing there for? Your aunt asked you to sit down, why are you still standing there?"

Zhao Qing and Zhao Jing looked at the magnificent, spacious and bright hall and looked around. They came back to their senses when they heard their grandmother's voice.

The secret passage leading from the front door to the hall is much larger than their home.

Her eyes were full of envy, and she suddenly felt a little resentful of her grandmother. Why didn't her aunt come to live with her earlier when her family was so rich? She made them live a hard life for so many years.

But now that they are here, they naturally have to find a way to stay, as they never want to go back.

"Grandma, my aunt's house is so bright. Fortunately, my aunt still thinks of us and invites us here." Zhao Jing said with a smile after sitting down.

"Of course. When I was little, I had a very good relationship with your aunt. We grew up together, slept in the same bed, and worked together to support our family. Also, when I was little, my family was poor, and I wore the clothes left over by your aunt."

The old lady didn't want others to mention the hard life she had lived before, because it was a shame for her. But now that her sister had mentioned it, she was so angry that veins on her forehead popped out.

"Alright, alright, let's not talk about the past. This time I came here to firstly get together with you, and secondly to see if I can help you with any difficulties. This will also help us complete our sisterhood."

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Zhao Li slapped her thigh, her face a little excited, as if the old lady had hit the nail on the head, and said loudly: "Oh, no wonder I said that we sisters have...what did we have in mind? Anyway, sister, you are really the worm in my stomach. You know what I need."

Seeing the old lady's face becoming increasingly grim, Nanny Liu quickly tried to smooth things over, "Madam Zhao, we are on the same page. And you shouldn't be so rude when talking to the old lady. After all, the people who come to the mansion now are all dignitaries. You still have to be more careful."

Zhao Li waved her hand and said nonchalantly, "Okay, okay, I get it."

After saying this, he curled his lips and thought to himself, 'Didn't he grow up with me before? He just gave birth to a good son. Now he has installed it.'
