Spring Drunk Chang'an

main courtyard.

Song looked tired and a little nauseous.

Liu Changan knelt carefully beside her, secretly peeking at her with his almond-shaped eyes, with a look of stubbornness and guilt in his eyes.

A moment...

"Madam, are you really angry?" she whispered.

Song was startled, then came back to her senses and looked at her worried little face. She couldn't help but sigh, "Chang'an, don't be afraid. Madam is not angry. Even if she is, it has nothing to do with you."

She reached out and gently touched the little girl's black hair.

She said softly, "I'm just a little disappointed."

"My son, my eldest son, born after ten months of pregnancy, I always thought that even though he was arrogant and self-righteous, he should at least be a gentleman, a child who knows etiquette and morality. I didn't expect that he, he..."

"He got drunk and had sex with his second uncle's concubine, and then gladly accepted the gift!"

"Uncle and nephew share the same trough!"

Song paused, her face flushed, and she could hardly continue.

Seeing this, Liu Changan's almond-shaped eyes drooped with sadness and guilt, and he stammered, "Madam, this matter is actually, actually..."

Blame me.

In his previous life, it was at this time that Liu Wenbai would stay drunk in the front yard and madly indulge in the pleasure of a girl named Baiguo. It was said that Baiguo was engaged, but she lost her virginity and became Liu Wenbai's concubine, and soon died in the backyard.

So, Liu Changan replaced her with Liu Caodeng.

The uncle and nephew were in the same trough, which was her plan behind the scenes.

But I can't say this to the Song family...

Liu Changan bit his lip, feeling guilty, "Madam, I'm sorry."

"Chang'an, my little girl, what does this have to do with you?" Song Shi laughed, with a hint of sadness and a dense layer of self-blame in her eyes. She said, "It's me. As a mother, I didn't teach him well."

Song's expression was full of bitterness.

Liu Changan frantically grabbed her hand and urged, "Madam, how can I blame you? The old Duke took the Crown Prince away as soon as he was born..."

Liu Wenbai was raised by the old Duke, Liu Wenrui was taught by Duke Liu, and Liu Qingru was also brought to Old Lady Lai when she was two years old.

None of the three Song children were raised by her. They were bad because they were taught to be bad by the Liu family. It has nothing to do with the Song family!

Liu Changan was anxious to defend Song.

"I'm his mother!" Song smiled bitterly and patted her hand, tears in the corners of her eyes. "I gave birth to him and I must raise him well. It's my fault that I didn't fulfill my responsibility."

"But……"

Song married into the Duke's Mansion and gave birth to Liu Wenbai that month, Liu Wenrui the following year, and Liu Changan the year after that.

Having three children in three years completely wore down her body. While the children were growing up, she tried her best to survive.

She had to lie in bed for more than half a year before she could stand up. Even after more than ten years of careful nursing, she was still thinner than others.

"I can't blame you, Madam, really, I can't blame you!" Liu Changan choked, tears flowing from his almond-shaped eyes.

She had seen her adoptive mother give birth to Wanger and Sanxi, and had taken care of her twice during the confinement period. She knew the pain of childbirth, so even though she was replaced by Aunt Lai under Song's nose, she sympathized with Song and felt sorry for her.

Being a mother is so hard and difficult.

Liu Changan sobbed and felt sad for Song.

If Liu Wenbai really was not her biological son, then Song had raised two children for her enemy and love rival.

How painful it would be for her if she knew.

"Madam~"

"Okay, I didn't cry, why are you crying?" Song smiled and gently wiped away Liu Changan's tears. She said, "As a mother, I was absent for so long. It was my negligence, but it's not too late to mend the situation."

"Wen Bo is misbehaving. I want him to turn around."

"Wenrui is also a little inappropriate, and Qingru is a little too domineering. These are all problems that need to be corrected slowly!"

Song took a deep breath, her eyes a mixture of tenacity and tenderness, as if she had made up her mind.

Liu Chang'an's almond-shaped eyes were filled with sadness.

"But, Chang'an, until they change, don't get close to them. You're a girl, and you have to consider your reputation."

"Qingru, she has a bad temper. You shouldn't be alone with her."

"Just stay in my yard. When you are old enough, I will find you a good marriage. You can marry and have children, and live a happy and peaceful life together!"

Song's tone was bewildered, yet filled with pity.

For some reason, the first time she saw Chang'an, she felt a sense of familiarity and inexplicable liking for him. The child was considerate and gentle, which made her feel even more attentive.

Song couldn't help but plan for her future, wanting to see her live a peaceful and happy life with a long and healthy life.

"I, I know, ma'am, I'll obey you."

Liu Changan choked and couldn't hold it in any longer. He carefully leaned his head into Song's arms.

Song was startled for a moment, then smiled warmly and hugged her back.

-

After Liu Changan returned to the back room, he buried his face in the quilt and cried bitterly.

Her almond-shaped eyes were swollen like peaches, and it hurt even when she wiped them with a handkerchief, but a surge of courage suddenly rose in her heart.

She interacted with Liu Caodeng cautiously and investigated Liu Wenbai slowly, and time passed slowly.

On this day, when it was her rest time, she was exhausted. Just as she reached the door of her house, suddenly, from the depths of the alley, an extremely tall man walked straight towards her.

Look her straight in the eye.

Liu Changan was startled and suddenly thought of the time when she was captured. She retreated cautiously with her back pressed against the door.

The man walked up to Liu Changan and stopped. His tall figure completely enveloped her. He slowly extended his hand...

Liu Changan's pupils contracted and he almost wanted to shout.

"Miss Liu, my young lady has sent me a visiting card." The man suddenly spoke.

The voice is silly.

Liu Changan was startled, looking up at this man who was nine feet tall, with a broad back and a strong waist, and could fit two of her. "You, who is your young lady?"

She was panicked.

Looking closer, the man seemed taller and bigger, and the hand that handed over the visiting card was almost as big as her head.

"Miss Liu, my young lady is Shi Xiaoyue from the Duke of Qi's Mansion." The man's voice was so deep that it made Liu Chang'an's ears buzz. He said, "I am the young lady's personal bodyguard, Xiong Zhen!"

"The young lady said that she was able to avoid public embarrassment thanks to your help during the Ningguo Mansion poetry gathering last time. She also felt a strong connection with you and wanted to get to know you more."

"So, let me send you a visiting card to ask when it's convenient for you. She wants to come and play with you."

"Miss Shi?" Liu Changan was stunned.

The legitimate daughter of the Duke of Qi's mansion really wanted to make friends with her. She thought that what Shi Xiaoyue said last time was just politeness?

"I, I always have time!" she murmured.

Xiong Zhen's eyes lit up, and he asked seriously, "Are you available anytime? Or even now?"

"Yeah!" Liu Changan nodded.

I wonder why he asked this?

Xiong Zhen grinned, stretched out his big hand, and stuffed the visiting card directly into Liu Changan's hand. Then he turned around and shouted at a deafening volume: "Miss, please come out. Miss Liu has time to play with you!"

"Yes, really?"

Following his call, a little head quietly popped out from the corner of the wall.

Shi Xiaoyue was clinging to the wall with her small hands, her big eyes filled with pure joy as she smiled timidly at Liu Changan.
