Shen Biyun didn't expect that she would be at a disadvantage in this battle. Now think about it, she is alone, her cousin won't confess, and her aunt doesn't mention it much now. How can she fight against that family by herself?

Aren't they clearly trying to drive me away?

Fortunately, Qin Yaozu's leg injury gave her an excuse, and she couldn't go anywhere until he recovered.

She found her aunt and said, "Aunt, my mother and I are living under someone else's roof here. Life is hard. Please help me think of a solution."

"I have shown you the way, you should also work harder. There are so many ways to coax a man into doing it. Don't you see the situation clearly? Even I am blamed. If I help you openly, even I won't be able to stay. Besides, why don't you think highly of your child? Teach him a lesson yourself, don't say anything, don't say that An Mingxuan will be unwilling to hear it, it will be unreasonable for me to hear it..."

"But aunt, they are so cruel. They want to kill Yaozu. I haven't told you about the drowning incident. It's not Yaozu's fault. There are indeed fake lotus flowers."

"What does that prove? If people want to put fake lotus flowers in the yard, it's none of our business. Not to mention fake lotus flowers, a few years ago when I was in my hometown, I also planted some grass to decorate the yard in winter, and it looked like flowers were blooming..." The old lady sighed.

She really felt that Shen Biyun was not skilled enough to deal with the woman in the general’s mansion, so she couldn’t help but stimulate her.

Shen Biyun couldn't say anything more.

Seeing that her aunt no longer treated her like herself, she really had no place to complain.

Finally decided to go directly to An Zhongtao.

An Zhongtao was in his study room when Shen Biyun came in and said, "Cousin, please punish me. Yaozu's words are too unbecoming..."

"What does he know as a kid? This is Mingxuan's business. I've already scolded him." An Zhongtao put down his book and stood up. "Don't blame yourself for this. By the way, how is Yaozu's injury?"

"The doctor came to check again and said that I was fine, but I had to continue taking the medicine. I scolded him, but I don't know what this kid is thinking. He just thinks I can marry you..." At this point, she smiled shyly, "Kids are really like that."

An Zhongtao was also moved when he heard this, and then he looked at Shen Biyun's shy look, like an eighteen-year-old girl, and he actually forgot what to say.

Just when the two were falling in love, a maid suddenly knocked on the door and said that Qin Yaozu was crying and looking for his mother.

Shen Biyun felt regretful, but she had to go back. When she got back, the little ancestor was sitting on the bed and howling: "Mom, where have you been? Don't you want to be Yaozu?"

Shen Biyun was helpless: “Don’t worry, mother will take you wherever she is.”

"Then you can't leave this yard..." Qin Yaozu started to act like a spoiled child.

From then on, Tan Yaozu shouted from time to time, and Shen Biyun was really trapped in this yard.

She didn't go to the front garden, and it became quiet. Lian Jinrong was temporarily happy. She seemed to have forgotten about her dealings with Lian Jinyu. She would run to the East Warm Pavilion when she had nothing to do, giving some small gifts and teasing An Mingchen.

When she looked at An Mingchen, she couldn't help but sigh that this child was so good, with such bright facial features, better than An Zhongtao, not to mention An Mingxuan, there was no way she could compare to him. Thinking of this, her heart ached again. She didn't know what the birth of this legitimate son would take away, limelight, property, and power. Thinking of this, the ambition that had been temporarily suppressed couldn't help but stir again.

If humans did not have conflicts of interest, there would probably be no wars.

An Qingran knew that her mother had agreed to her aunt's request and sent An Mingxuan back to her. She didn't react because she knew it was a matter of time.

After all, his father and his aunt still have feelings for each other. Besides, now is the time to employ people. No matter what, she can be considered one of his own for the time being.

It can be seen from the recent events that her strategy has worked. Lian Jinrong is really an expert in family fights.

Faced with the messy situation, An Qingran didn't feel any better.

She only hoped that Shen Biyun could realize her power and know when to advance and when to retreat.

Lian Jinyu was as steady as a rock and remained unmoved by what had happened.

No matter who wanted to come in or out, she was still the mistress of the general's mansion. But she felt bad.

"Mom, do you see that my brother has grown taller than yesterday?" An Qingran hugged An Mingchen and Lian Jinyu while talking.

Lian Jinyu came back to her senses: "You hold him every day, how can you tell? I just think he's a little taller than when he was born."

"That's much longer." An Qingran smiled and lifted An Mingchen up, "And it's heavier too."

An Mingchen drooled all over her face. An Qingran smiled and put him on the bed, wiping his face herself: "Mom, my brother is so big now. He will be able to crawl in a while. Time flies."

"Yes, Shen Biyun has been in the mansion for more than half a year..."

Seeing her mother suddenly mention Chen Biyun, An Qingran knew in her heart that if she didn't think Chen Biyun was a thorn, she wouldn't mention it casually.

An Qingran also sighed: "It's time for her to leave. Why didn't anyone tell her?"

"Leave? She has already regarded this place as her home, and your father has no intention of letting her go. I mentioned it last night, and your father said that she was also very pitiful, so why chase her away? Besides, Qin Yaozu's leg has never recovered... In fact, I heard that your father still cares about her. After all, she is his cousin. If I say more deeply, your father will probably blame me."

"Yes, that's true, mother, don't worry, I know what to do." An Qingran had an idea in his mind.

Lian Jinyu looked at her daughter's expression, and for some reason, she felt reassured. She didn't know why she had such a feeling towards her daughter, as if she was not thirteen years old, as if she could handle everything.

It seems that she is old.

"This woman, newly widowed, has strange thoughts. She dresses up all day long and has no intention of missing her late husband at all. She was so determined to elope at the beginning, but now she changes her mind so easily. It's really interesting." An Qingran's voice was very cold. She really looked down on Shen Biyun. This woman was too proactive and too frivolous.

She disliked it very much.

Shen Biyun came. She knew she was not welcome in the general's mansion, but she still came to visit. When she saw that both mother and daughter were there, she put down the things in her hand: "Cousin, this is the clothes I made for Xiao Mingchen..."

An Qingran took it over. Her needlework was really good. The needlework was very fine. An Qingran smiled and said, "There are special embroiderers in the general's mansion. Why do you have to work so hard, aunt?"
