He Yusheng raised an eyebrow, showing some interest. "Fishing? How do you do it?"
How could a prestigious family like the Tang family be attracted by any kind of bait?
Anle smiled and said, "Well, I'll explain it to you in detail when we get back to the manor."
Yufu.
After returning from her trip outside, Anle took the tonics to her aunt. She needed her aunt's help with this matter.
When Anle brought the tonics to visit Su Mier, An Dalin already knew about it.
Of course, the one who delivered the message to An Dalin was none other than Luzhi, the maidservant beside Su Mier.
Things were about to escalate, which was clearly the style of Green Branch, who was by her aunt's side. Anle could tell from the arrogant look on Green Branch's face as she stood next to An Dalin, who had found someone to back her up.
Upon entering, he saw the youngest aunt of the Feng family kneeling on the ground, and An Dalin's old face was ashen.
Green Branch pointed down at Feng's aunt, who was standing next to An Dalin, fanning the flames.
"Old man, it was this woman who did it. She clearly had bad intentions. She just came in and managed to get rid of our lady's baby. That was your grandson!"
"Old man, this kind of vicious woman should be dragged out and beaten to death."
Su Mi'er was still unconscious on the bed. The laundry girl who came to check on Su Mi'er was breathing rapidly when she heard the sound and shook her head vigorously at An Dalin.
"No, Sister Mei'er didn't push the person on purpose. Miss Yan saw it with her own eyes. It was really an accident."
If we really drag Sister Mei'er out and beat her to death, how will we explain it to the Feng family? That will put Brother Xiao in a difficult position.
If they beat a perfectly healthy girl who was sent to them to death like this, the Feng family would definitely not let it go.
Feng Xiaomei was sobbing quietly to the side, occasionally glancing up at An Dalin, and then bursting into tears as she listened to Lüzhi's words.
"Grandpa, you...you can just kill me, sob sob sob...please really kill me, I don't want to live anymore, I actually harmed a person's life, that was the eldest grandson."
A child who hadn't even been born yet... Waaah, just like that, just like that... I pushed him away in an instant. I have a life on my hands, and it's the life of Brother Xiao's own flesh and blood.
I live with a guilty conscience, and I don't want to live my whole life with this uneasy conscience, facing Brother Xiao every day, my heart is torn apart.
Xiao Ge hasn't come back yet. If he finds out when he gets back, he probably won't feel any more affection for me as husband and wife.
Green Branch scoffed from the side, "What nonsense are you spouting, you wicked woman? What about marital affection? Even if there is marital affection, it should be for our mistress. What kind of wife are you? You're at most a concubine."
"Yes, Miss Green Branch is right. I am indeed just a concubine who cannot be brought to the table. How can I be compared with the eldest grandson of the old master?"
I'd rather die than lose my sister's unborn child; it's Xiao-ge's first child.
Feng Xiaomei's shoulders trembled, and with great emotion, tears streamed down her face. She slapped herself hard, making the slap mark on her already red face even more obvious, giving her a more pitiful and weak appearance.
An Dalin's face, which had been ashen, softened a little because of Feng Xiaomei's actions and her remorse, and he didn't seem as bad as before.
Although he didn't witness it firsthand, it sounded like an accident. The child was already so remorseful that he didn't even try to defend himself. What else could he say?
"Alright, not everyone is happy about this." Old An Dalin sighed, his face showing regret and heartache for his unborn child. His beloved grandson was gone just like that.
What a terrible thing to do.
Why bring so many wives into the family? The An family has never done this before. Isn't this just divine retribution?
As Anle carried the tonics, looking at Feng Xiaomei, who was speaking with such emotion that she could win an Oscar, he inexplicably felt a sense of unease and suspicion.
With such exaggerated acting skills, it doesn't seem like she really feels guilty at all.
This acting is a bit over the top.
Perhaps his grandfather saw it as fact, believing it was unintentional and caused by an accident.
Judging from her acting skills, she felt that this matter was probably not as unexpected as it seemed on the surface.
Did this woman really not know that her aunt was pregnant? Even if her aunt didn't know, it doesn't necessarily mean the woman didn't know either.
Before, she thought she might be overthinking things, but now she feels that she really wasn't overthinking it. This woman was clearly putting on a show of retreating to advance.
“Grandpa, we can have another child in the future. If the child is gone, it means that the child was not meant to be with our family.” Anle forced a smile and comforted An Dalin, then stuffed the tonics he had bought into Green Branch’s hand.
"This is for my aunt to nourish her body."
Green Branch paused for a moment, took the tonics Anle handed over, glanced at them and saw that they were all very expensive tonics. She paused for a couple of breaths, then looked at Anle with surprise. For the first time, there was no disdain or contempt in her eyes.
I never expected that this child, who looks so young, would be so capable and considerate. He even went out of his way to buy me supplements.
It seems this child is quite different from her troublesome older brother.
This time, Green Branch really thought more highly of Anle, and felt that perhaps not all the people in the An family were as she had imagined.
It's good that this child still has some conscience; it's all worth it for her mistress to treat everyone in the An family so sincerely and care so much about them.
There were always a few who did not disappoint her mistress's good intentions.
Anle coughed lightly and deliberately spoke to An Dalin in front of Lüzhi, "Grandpa, Aunt is the apple of the Su family's eye. It's because our An family didn't take good care of her that Aunt lost a child and also injured her body."
My aunt suffered some injustice at our Anjia family's place.
We must go to the Su family in person to apologize, show our sincerity, and earnestly seek their forgiveness.
"When your uncle returns, you and he will go together to the Su family's place to personally explain the situation and then properly apologize to them."
Of course, the apology was just a pretext. The incident involving her aunt was a convenient excuse for her to use as a pretext in her fishing plan. She could use this incident as a legitimate reason to complete her fishing plan.
Moreover, this approach achieves three goals at once: it makes An Jia appear to be a skilled interpersonalist, pleases the Su family, elevates their reputation, and allows her to accomplish her plan.
Why wouldn't she do something that kills three birds with one stone?
In any case, it benefits everyone involved.
