"What method?" An Yuan'er had been racking her brains for a long time without finding a solution, but now Yi Chenli said that there was a way.
"Treat them as they treat you."
Yi Chenli didn't explain it too clearly. An Yuan'er said dejectedly, "Father has been searching for the Taoist priest who said that my brother's fate was incompatible with the An family all these years, but he hasn't found him yet."
“Roundball, is that Celestial Master from back then really important? What's important is how to break the prophecy of fate from back then.”
An Yuan'er didn't immediately refute this time; she calmly thought about it.
Suddenly, he felt a sense of clarity: "Yi Chenli, I understand. I'll go back to the An residence now. Wait for my good news."
Not long after An Yuan'er finished speaking, she quickly packed her luggage and went back.
After An Yuan'er left, Yi Chenli continued drinking the tea in his cup, but tasted a hint of bitterness.
"Li Gui, bring a new pot of tea."
Seeing that his master was not in a good mood, Li Gui said, "Master has gone to great lengths. Miss An knows that you helped her behind the scenes, and she is very grateful to you!"
"There's no need for her to know. The little girl keeps talking about her brother all day long, which is very annoying. It's better to relieve her of her annoyance so that she won't keep mentioning him in the future."
Li Gui knew that her master was just being stubborn and refusing to admit how good he was to Miss An, but emotions couldn't lie. As soon as Miss An left, her master's expression turned somewhat pale.
After they changed the teapot, Yi Chenli only took one sip and then stopped drinking.
The tea still tasted bland. He said, "This tea is no good. I'll throw it away later."
Li Gui said with heartache, "Master, this is a new tea that arrived from the South yesterday. It's the best."
Yi Chenli glared angrily at Li Gui, who shrank back and changed his words, saying, "Master is absolutely right. This tea should be thrown away."
In an attempt to atone for his sins, Li Gui said, "Master, rest assured, I have already sent someone to secretly follow Miss An. If she encounters any difficulties, the Second Prince will report back."
Yi Chenli nodded almost imperceptibly.
He casually picked up the tea he hadn't finished earlier and drank it all in one gulp.
Li Gui watched in disbelief; hadn't his master just said the tea was bad?
Li Gui: "???"
My master's intentions are becoming increasingly difficult to fathom. Being a servant is no easy task!

Anfu.
"Father, Yuan'er is back to see you." An Yuan'er returned home and searched for her father in Litingyuan for a long time, but couldn't find him.
An Yuan'er was about to go to the hall to find An Chaoli when Aunt Yun stopped her.
"Fourth Miss, now is not a good time for you to come back. Things are not peaceful at home. Why don't you go back to Chenyang Palace and lay low for a while?"
Aunt Yun looked exhausted, as if she hadn't had a good rest.
"Auntie, tell me, what happened?"
Before An Yuan'er could finish speaking, a maid outside called out, "You people of Litingyuan, don't even think about slacking off. Hurry up and go to the kitchen to cook for Madam Lihua. If you delay the precious child in Madam's belly, who among you can bear the responsibility?"
This girl is Zizhu, the head maidservant of my aunt.
Judging from her arrogant demeanor, anyone who didn't know better would think she was the owner of the Liting Garden.
This is outrageous! An Yuan'er can't stand this.
She stepped forward and said, "There are so many maids serving at Huacai Residence, and Auntie only has one mouth, why would she need the help of people from Liting Garden?"
Zizhu still looked smug: "Fourth Miss, it's been a long time. I'm afraid you don't know the rules in the house recently. The old lady has spoken, and the most important thing in the house recently is the baby in my lady's belly. Since it is the most important thing, it is only right to use some maids."
