An Qingran was thankful for the kung fu she had practiced, otherwise she would have really been hit by it!

So, she paid special attention to it and stopped putting things around its cage, but banana peels and fruit cores later became its hidden weapons.

Honeysuckle became more and more careful and cautious, and finally felt that she should remind the young lady and let it go.

Haven't the rabbits been released? Why are you still keeping this monkey locked up?

Besides, the lady hasn't practiced acupuncture for a long time.

In fact, An Qingran is already very skilled. However, Dongfang Jin has not come to see her for a while. She thinks that he has not had an attack of the poison yet. She doesn't know whether this is a good thing or a bad thing, because only when the poison attacks can she detoxify him. However, she doesn't know how to induce the poison to attack him. Last time, they did not discuss this issue. She is still thinking that if she sees him in the future, she must ask him about it.

Just as she was thinking about it, the monkey jumped up again and snarled at her in the cage. An Qingran felt that she couldn't just let this poor monkey go in the general's mansion, because she thought it would take revenge and stare at her. She didn't want to be stared at by a monkey all day long...

So, even if the poor monkey continued to glare at her, she couldn't let her go.

Dinner time.

Although An Qingran didn't expect it at all, it still came.

She didn't know when this rule could be changed. She didn't want to face so many people she didn't want to see during dinner, as that would affect her appetite.

Fortunately, she still has a great mission, which is to protect her mother.

Dinner went on as usual. After everyone was ready, the old lady's face became gloomy, which was different from before.

No one dared to pick up their chopsticks, just waiting for her to make her speech.

Finally, the old lady spoke: "Jin Yu, I have always thought that you are a decent and kind person. You are the mistress of the general's mansion, so you are naturally fair..."

Hearing her say this, An Qingran's heart tightened.

I don't know what kind of accusation he is trying to pin on his mother.

So, she became alert.

Sure enough, the old lady continued, "I heard someone say today that Mingxuan was crying loudly in your room. Did you do anything wrong to him? You can't be like this. Although we know that your baby might be a boy, he still calls you mother. You should treat him as your own child. This is what you did wrong, isn't it?"

Her voice was stern, as was her expression.

So that's what happened.

An Qingran felt that what happened in the morning would not end so easily, and sure enough!

Hearing this, An Zhongtao looked at Lian Jinyu and asked seriously, "What's going on? How did you treat An Mingxuan?"

Lian Jinyu didn't expect An Zhongtao to ask her so seriously. She didn't mind him asking her, but the meaning of his question did imply that he directly thought she was being harsh on An Mingxuan.

Yes, no matter who gave birth to An Mingxuan, he is his son.

So, he was really heartbroken.

However, no matter how much he felt heartbroken, he shouldn't have spoken to me in such a tone, and more importantly, he shouldn't have thought of me in this way.

Thinking of this, her heart ached and her expression showed aggrieved, and she was speechless for a while.

An Qingran knew the grievances in her mother's heart.

If she didn't speak, no one would speak for her mother at this time.

Even if my father believed in my mother in his heart, he couldn't show it now, otherwise my grandmother would have something to say, saying that he was the biological father but was harsh on his illegitimate son. Who knows how much trouble would arise then.

So, An Qingran burst out laughing: "Grandma, I didn't think it was a big deal. My mother couldn't defend herself in this matter, but it's very funny. I tell you, An Mingxuan heard someone gossiping that my mother must be pregnant with a little brother, and that my mother would like him if she had a little brother. So, he cried and made a fuss, insisting that my mother give him a little sister. Everyone laughed when they heard it!"

She said it with a smile, and when An Mingxuan heard him say that, he also smiled and said, "Yes, give birth to a little sister!"

Everyone burst out laughing.

Lian An Zhongtao also laughed: "Why bother? The child is ignorant and has brought trouble to Lian Jinyu's reputation. If this gets out, who knows what will happen. People will really think that the mistress of the general's mansion is a disgusting person!"

The old lady's face flashed with embarrassment when she heard this, but then she said, "Who was it that was gossiping so much that caused me to misunderstand Jin Yu? How can I explain this? Qing Ran, it's a good thing you said it now... And you concubines, were you all in the room at the time? Why didn't you say anything and let me misunderstand your sister..."

Lian Jinrong saw this and said, "Mother, this matter involves Mingxuan. I want to speak up, but I can't. If I speak up, people will think that I instigated it. Anyway, Qingran should tell it out. It just so happens that this child is sensible. If she tells it out, it will be good for mother to not wrongly accuse her sister!"

The old lady nodded when she heard this: "That does make some sense, Zhongtao, why don't you check who provoked Mingxuan? He himself would never have thought of this, there must be someone!"

Even if she didn't tell him, An Zhongtao would still find this person.

Just now, he saw the expression on Lian Jinyu's face and knew that he had wronged her again. He was blaming himself so much that he couldn't just let it go. Thinking of everything that happened before, he was even more angry: "Someone, bring that teaching nanny... Forget it, there's no need to bring her here, just sell her! We can't keep such a person around Mingxuan, what do you think, mother?"

The old lady thought for a moment and nodded: "That's great. What I said just now was unfair to my daughter-in-law. I hope she won't be angry with an old woman like me?"

"No, mother is so anxious because she loves her grandson!" Lian Jinyu said with a smile.

Otherwise, what else could she say.

When An Qingran heard that her father had sold the tutor, she felt sad for them. However, they were Lian Jinrong's people after all, and they must have helped her do a lot of bad things!

Anyway, she had no objection to them leaving.

Lian Jinrong did not expect An Zhongtao to do this. She thought he would vent his anger on herself, but she did not expect to implicate the teaching nanny. She brought them from home and they had watched her grow up. She trusted them and they were very loyal to her. This made Lian Jinrong's heart ache.

She opened her mouth and wanted to plead for the maids, but when she saw An Zhongtao's expression, and thought about the last time she brought people to An Qingran's yard, he had always ignored her. He didn't divorce her because he was still interested in her skills in bed.
