Mrs. Luo always felt that she was too direct and didn't like her very much. But it seemed that she was sincere to Luo Yining and didn't dislike him that much.

Yining shook the bracelet and said with a bit of a smile: "Thank you, mother."

Lin Hairu waved her hand and said, "These are just external possessions, they don't count for anything. If you want to eat anything during your illness, just come and ask me..."

Just as he said this, another maid came to tell him that Aunt Qiao had brought the fifth young lady to see Yining.

Now both Mrs. Luo and Lin Hairu looked unhappy.

Yining looked up and saw a graceful figure walking in, wearing a light blue jacket with a twisted branch pattern and a snow-white skirt with embroidery. She was extremely pretty. Behind her was a little girl who looked about half as good as her, looking delicate and graceful, also a beauty.

Xiao Yining's fifth sister is named Luo Yilian as her name suggests.

Aunt Qiao was the concubine of Luo Yining's father and was usually very favored.

Aunt Qiao bowed to Old Lady Luo and looked at Lin Hairu and said, "Madam, you came to see Miss Seventh first. I waited for you outside for a long time, but I didn't expect you to leave first."

Before Yi Ning could say anything, Lin Hairu, who was very direct, said coldly, "Did I ask you to wait for me?"

Aunt Qiao sighed softly, a look of worry on her face: "Madam is right. Whether I wait or not is my duty. I know I was wrong."

Old Mrs. Luo looked at Lin Hairu with disapproval again.

Although she disliked Lin Hairu, she disliked Aunt Qiao even more. Unfortunately, Lin Hairu was a straightforward person, and Aunt Qiao was a cunning person. Over the years, Lin Hairu was suppressed by Aunt Qiao.

Lin Hairu, however, felt that she had the upper hand and was about to slam the table and say, "I was originally your concubine..."

Old Mrs. Luo immediately held Lin Hairu's hand to prevent her from falling into the trap.

Lin Hairu hesitated and stopped talking.

Aunt Qiao continued, "Madam, I came here not only to see Miss Seven, but also to talk about the Third Young Master." She paused, "I heard that the Third Young Master is kneeling in the ancestral hall with a high fever. I have the audacity to ask that he leave the ancestral hall and get some treatment before continuing to kneel. If his fever continues like this, his life is in danger..."

Mrs. Luo said calmly, "I need him to kneel down so that he can wake up."

Aunt Qiao smiled helplessly after hearing this, then bowed: "That's because I said too much."

Lin Hairu waited until Aunt Qiao and Luo Yilian left before she suppressed her anger and said, "She acts like she's about to fall down at the slightest touch. I don't know who she's trying to impress. And yet the master loves her so much."

Mrs. Luo glared at Lin Hairu and said, "Stop talking now."

Lin Hairu pulled Yining's hand again: "Yining, don't you think so?"

Yining is still a little confused. Anyone who is forced to join a fight without understanding the relationships between the characters would be a little confused.

She calmed down before saying, "Mother, if father knew how you treated Aunt Qiao...I'm afraid he would feel even more sorry for her."

Mrs. Luo thought her granddaughter was usually clueless, comparable to Lin Hairu, but she hadn't expected her to be so understanding today. She sighed at Lin Hairu, "If a little girl like Yining can see it all, you might as well know it, right?"

Lin Hairu continued aggrievedly, "I just can't stand the way he is..."

Old Mrs. Luo did not expect Lin Hairu to have the same thoughts as Aunt Qiao. Seeing that it was getting dark outside, she asked the maids to light the lights and invite Lin Hairu to have dinner.

Although Yi Ning lived only seventeen years as a human in her previous life, she had lived for over twenty years as Yu Zan. She had seen too many quarrels among the women in the harem. It was common for the east wind to prevail over the west wind, and vice versa. They were bored anyway, so bickering all day was just a solace.

But the most important thing is that Aunt Qiao was pleading for Luo Shenyuan.

This Concubine Qiao had a son and a daughter, and was quite scheming. But she was always praised for her kindness, which in turn made Lin Hairu's image less favorable. Concubine Qiao's small favors were a good way to win people's hearts. It might be fine for others, but what if my third brother was grateful for Concubine Qiao's kindness? What would happen then?

Now things are better. Xiao Yining and the people around her probably all hate Luo Shenyuan. But Aunt Qiao is here to save the future Prime Minister.
