If he hadn't listened to his sister's true feelings, he would still be foolishly treating him as his older brother!
Feeling someone beneath him slip their hand under his mattress, Lin Rui'an closed his eyes again.
He bit his lip hard to suppress himself.
He had never received much care from his father, so he listened to Lin Shixuan in many things.
Lin Shixuan often said, "The eldest brother is like a father."
It turns out they were brainwashing him.
Lin Rui'an made a 'huh' sound in his throat, which startled A Yong and made him withdraw his hand.
"Ah Yong, I think I hear someone talking."
"Jinbao, I just spoke a few words with the Second Young Master. He said he was a little tired and has gone to sleep now."
Jinbao poked his head out, trying to peek into the house.
"What, Jinbao? I'm the Second Young Master's personal servant. Do you dare question me?"
"No, Brother Yong, I'm just worried about the Second Young Master. He's not in good health, and I'm afraid something might happen to him."
A glint of malice flashed in Ah Yong's eyes. "What about the Second Young Master? With me as his personal servant, what right do you, a mere courtyard sweeper, have to point fingers here? Get out."
Jinbao responded humbly.
"We are both servants, when has this young master ever given such an order in the courtyard?"
The sound of Lin Rui'an behind him terrified A Yong. He slowly turned around, looking like a guilty thief.
"Second Young Master, you're awake?"
"Yes, my health is getting worse than before. I'm fainting far too often these days."
"Why did you talk like that just now? We're all working together, why be so aggressive?"
Ah Yong quickly stepped forward, "Second Young Master, I was worried about your health, that's why I spoke a little harshly."
"Why didn't you let Jinbao in when he just showed concern for me?"
Ah Yong nervously clenched his hands, trying to find a reason.
“Young master, you are not well, and I was afraid that you would be disturbed, so I did not let Jinbao in.”
“You’re so kind. My health is getting worse and worse, and it’s too hard for you to work alone. Since Jinbao is here, he can help take care of me.”
"What?" A Yong looked up. "Young master, only I know your health best. Wouldn't having another person just cause trouble? I don't think it's hard work."
Lin Rui'an sneered, of course he didn't feel it was hard work.
The servants who served him also served him.
Sometimes when I'm not around, he'll even sneak off to sleep in my bed.
"You are my personal servant, so naturally you are the most important."
Jinbao's eyes gleamed, and disregarding Ayong's attitude, he immediately knelt down, "Second Young Master, Jinbao will definitely serve you with all his heart."
"Get up."
"yes."
"The meals that Chang'an and I have been eating at Mother's place these past few days have been delicious. Ah Yong, I'll have Mother draft a menu, and you'll be in charge of the kitchen's meals from now on."
"Jinbao, you can take care of these trivial matters, like serving tea and water."
"Yes, young master."
Ah Yong was overjoyed, as he could serve the second young master closely without having to serve him tea or water.
The monthly allowance remains the same, the workload is halved, and I can still complete the tasks assigned by the eldest young master. It's a win-win situation!
Ever since Lin Rui'an and Lin Chang'an heard Lin Wanwan's innermost thoughts.
The two confessed to each other in private.
【lalalala.....】
[Breastfeeding is so comfortable, oh, if only I had some meat on my belly...]
[Sizzle...]
Lin Rui'an: —_—
Lin Chang'an: ...
Ye Lanyin: She twitched the corner of her mouth...
The old lady was already in a bad mood after the midwife and wet nurse were beheaded.
Now that Zou Shuang'er is in prison, she looks much older.
"Madam, the old lady requests your presence."
Hua Xin reluctantly walked in. After her mistress was almost killed, she was now wary of the people in that courtyard.
"Chang'an, Ruian, you and your sister are here. Mother will go and see you."
Me too! Me too!
[Mom, I want to go too.]
Lin Wanwan wriggled her chubby little body and clung tightly to Ye Lanyin's sleeve.
Ye Lanyin couldn't bear to see Lin Wanwan's adorable appearance.
So I took her with me.
"Mother, why did you call for your daughter-in-law?"
Ye Lanyin entered the room, picked up Lin Wanwan, and found a place to sit down, without waiting for Old Madam Lin to speak.
Originally, Madam Lin wanted to teach her a lesson, but seeing her sit down without any politeness, she felt a surge of anger rising in her chest.
"Lanyin, my cousin Dehong has been locked up for two days. Wanqing has been crying and asking for her mother. Why don't we help her and get her out of jail?"
When Madam Lin spoke, her tone was full of caution.
This was the first time Ye Lanyin had ever heard such a delicate voice.
"No, no, Mother won't save you."
Ye Lanyin chuckled, "Mother, it is only right that murderers should pay with their lives and thieves should go to jail. No thief has ever been worthy of holding his head high in front of his victims."
The old lady looked completely bewildered.
"Lan Yin, what does 'victim' mean?"
"She's my sister's child, shouldn't we, as family, help her?"
When did Ye Lanyin become so difficult to talk to?
Normally, as long as she speaks gently and negotiates with her with a smile, she always agrees.
"Mother, I am the victim. That day, you and the Marquis both misunderstood me as a thief. Why didn't you help me?"
Ye Lanyin's words hit the nail on the head, and the old lady lowered her head guiltily.
"Lanyin, I know I didn't help you that day, and it's understandable that you blame me. I just thought that since you are the legitimate daughter of the General's Mansion, it wouldn't matter if you were locked up for a day or two at most."
