"Hey, isnt this our Sixth Sister?"
He Lean followed the servant girl of Bo Fus mansion as they walked along the winding corridor, and when they turned a corner, her eldest sister-in-law, He Shi, came out with a look of disdain on her face. However, she seemed to ignore the womans contemptuous expression, smiled slightly, and bowed: "Anan greets Eldest Sister-in-law."
He gazed at her increasingly delicate face, sneering in his heart, and said with a sharp tone: "Its not that I, as your aunt, dont want to help you win over your father, but its just that the woman who gave birth to you as a concubine hurt your father so much back then, that he still doesnt want to see you to this day."
"Nowadays, he is ill, but you dont have to worry too much. Xiuer, the eldest granddaughter, takes care of him by his bedside every day, and I believe he will recover soon." Speaking of her own daughter, who was the same age as He Lean, Heshi had a complacent smile on her face. It didnt matter how beautiful she looked; after all, she was just a lowly illegitimate child.
He Lean said calmly, "As the saying goes, a son repays his fathers debts. The debt of my mother hurting her father-in-law for many years should be repaid by me as her daughter. I beg you to give An An a chance to make amends." She sincerely bowed again.
The current Zhuo Yi Bo Fu is He Shis master, if she says dont let herself enter the inner courtyard, then oneself also cannot force ones way in.
He sneered, "Look at what youre saying, as if I deliberately didnt let you see him. If you insist on going in, I wont stop you. But let me tell you something ugly first: Fathers illness has just shown a bit of improvement. If he gets angry because of you and his condition worsens again, dont blame the big gate of our manor for not being open to you in the future."
"Thank you, Auntie, for your blessing."
He Lean followed the maid and continued to walk forward. With every step, the pink agate silver flow su zi yu jade hairpin on her head would sway out a clear and crisp sound. As they entered the inner courtyard, in a garden with several white jasmine flowers, she heard an impatient female voice discontentedly say:
"Grandpa has lost control of his bowels again, hurry up and go clean it up, it stinks to death!"
Then, several voices responded in a panic. He Lu An raised his eyes and saw a girl of about 14 or 15 years old, dressed nobly, with clear eyebrows and eyes, covering her nose with a silk handkerchief, walking out of the side room next to the hall.
The girl looked at He Lean with a dazed expression, seeing He Shi walking behind her. She thought of the invitation card handed over last night and frowned to measure that although her clothes were not luxurious, they were all exquisite inside and out, and some familiar looks became exceptionally charming, like a peach blossom in early spring that was carefully taken care of and bloomed magnificently. In her heart, she said with a bad taste: "You are He Lean?"
He Lean smiled and nodded, and then said: "Xiu Er, she is here to visit your grandfather on behalf of Old Lady He."
"Take care of Grandfather?" He Yinxia seemed to have heard a joke, and sneered: "In the past when Aunt was a concubine, Grandfather said that he would not allow her illegitimate child to appear in front of him. Mother, you are really confused, actually calling her over to irritate the seriously ill Grandfather!"
He Shi said: "She asked me to give her a chance to repay the debt, how could I, as her aunt, stop her?"
"Pay back the debt?" He Xingxiu grasped the key point and asked.
He Lean said firmly: "Yes, I am willing to serve my uncle day and night in front of his bed."
"It seems to be full of sincerity." He Yinxia was delighted to let her do the work she had never been willing to do, and said: "Since mother has agreed to give you an opportunity, I wont make her break her promise. But if you dare to be lazy with your grandfather for a moment, I will drive you out without hesitation!"
