Chen Yi sat in the room bored, his elbows resting on the table, his little face supported by his small palms, and his other hand tapping the cup on the tea tray to pass the time.
He kept one ear perked up, not missing any sound coming from outside.
The sound of footsteps came from far away.
After hearing this, Chen Yi immediately stood up from the stool with joy in his eyes.
"It's my elder sister!" he was very sure.
"Yier, you..."
Chen saw Chen Yi’s excited expression and hadn’t finished her words of advice yet.
Chen Yi ran out like a gust of wind.
“Big sister!”
As soon as Li Xia stepped into Chen's residence, she heard a familiar voice before she saw anyone, and she was extremely excited.
The next second, a soft body rushed into Li Xia's arms, and small hands wrapped around her slender waist.
"Yier!"
Chen, who followed behind, saw Chen Yi hugging Li Xia directly. She was afraid of making her unhappy, so she quickly scolded him.
After Fuling reacted, she reached out to pull Chen Yi's hand away.
"Young Master, please let go of the Empress Dowager. You are being disrespectful to her by being so reckless, do you know that?" she said.
Poria cocos is not like Polygonatum odoratum, which can hide emotions very well.
She is the kind of person who loves everyone in the house and hates everyone in the house.
Fuling bears a grudge against Chen.
Chen Yi is her son, so naturally he was implicated.
After Chen entered the general's mansion, she did a lot of excessive things to the original owner.
As the original owner's personal maids, Fuling and Yuzhu saw all those things and kept them in mind.
Yuzhu does not show her emotions.
But that didn't mean she had forgotten what had happened to them before.
But she is calmer.
She didn't like Chen, but she would not transfer her disgust to Chen Yi.
"Your Majesty, please calm down. Yi'er missed you too much, that's why he behaved so inappropriately."
Chen explained.
She took two steps towards Lixia and stopped in front of her.
"Yier, come here." Chen stretched out her hand and waved to Chen Yi, asking him to come over.
"I don't want it, I just want my big sister."
Not only did Chen Yi not let go, he hugged Li Xia's waist even tighter.
Seeing that he refused to eat anything, Fuling's face looked as ugly as if she had eaten a fly.
"Young Master..."
"Okay, Fuling, let me do it."
Fuling bit her lip. She was full of anger and her face turned red, as if she was about to explode.
Li Xia gave her a look and spoke in a soothing tone.
"Yes." Fuling lowered her head and stepped aside obediently.
The Empress Dowager has spoken, so there is nothing I can say.
Li Xia moved her hand behind her waist and patted the small hand that was holding her waist, "Chen Yi, let go of your hand. I won't leave so quickly."
She said softly.
It should be that time in the palace. Her decisiveness made Chen Yi feel insecure.
Chen Yi raised his eyes, curled his lips and said: "Big sister, please don't hate Yi'er, okay?"
His humble request.
Mother said that she would never treat my elder sister badly again.
He just hoped that his big sister wouldn't hate him.
"I don't hate you." Li Xia said.
This is what she really thinks.
Even the original owner never hated the little follower who followed him every day.
She might not like him, but she definitely didn't hate him.
The same goes for myself.
"Big sister, are you telling the truth?" Chen Yi blinked and asked cautiously.
Li Xia nodded, "Yeah."
"Yier, I have something to tell the Queen Mother. I'll let Xiaodie take you to the yard to play first. We'll pick you up when we're done."
Chen gave Xiaodie a look.
Xiaodie lowered her eyes and walked forward, "Young Master, I will take you to play."
"I don't……"
When Chen Yi saw Xiaodie extending her hand towards him, he subconsciously turned his body to avoid her hand.
But when he saw that Li Xia was indifferent, Chen Yi had no choice but to pout, lower his eyelids and be obedient.
"All right."
Chen Yi lowered his head and said in a muffled voice.
"Empress Dowager, may I have a word with you?" Chen looked at Yuzhu and Fuling who were following Li Xia closely. She licked her lip and asked with her lips moving.
"Madam, what do you have to say behind our backs?" Yuzhu said, "Fuling and I are close to the Empress Dowager. We have been master and servant since childhood. Our loyalty is known to all. Why should Madam be worried?"
She moved her lips and asked Chen back.
Although the Chen family didn't say it explicitly, they are neither stupid nor foolish.
The implication of her words was already so obvious.
Chen asked the Empress Dowager to let her take a step to talk.
In fact, he just wanted to send her and Fuling away.
"Yuzhu, Fuling, please don't misunderstand me. I don't mean to worry about you two, it's just..."
Chen pursed her lips, seeming to want to say something but stopped herself.
"Host, your guess is correct. The young prostitute that Chen found is currently being arranged by her in a house in a courtyard of the mansion."
The electronic sound of the system rang in Li Xia's ears.
When Li Xia saw Chen's hesitation, she knew that even though she had rejected the plan she had mentioned to her when she entered the palace that day, she had not given up.
———
"Auntie Hong, the Queen Mother has gone to Madam's courtyard. There are people guarding outside, so I can't follow her in."
When Honglian heard what the maid said, she took off her red veil and raised her eyes and said, "Isn't it rumored that the current queen mother and Madam Chen don't get along?"
