Chapter 351 Twenty Years Ago

An Yunqing glanced at his second brother: "You're not bad."

If An Qing hadn't been good-looking when he was young, mother wouldn't have liked him.

Otherwise, because he was poor? Because he had no ability?

This made An Yunshen a little happy. He immediately shook his head a little embarrassedly: "Big brother, please give me a compliment."

An Yunqing said: "I'm not complimenting you."

An Yunshen: "?"

An Yunqing opened and closed his thin lips: "I was comforting you."

An Yunshen: ""

He didn't understand why the eldest brother's attitude towards him was so different from his attitude towards the two third brothers, who were both younger brothers?

An Yunqing then looked at An Yunze, his eyes were filled with emotions, and a warm smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

He doesn't smile often, but when he does, the coldness on his face disappears immediately. "Yunze, I'm your elder brother, An Yunqing."

An Yunze quickly stood up and saluted An Yunqing.

"Hello, elder brother."

An Yunqing also stood up and pulled up An Yunshen who was sitting next to him.

"His name is An Yunshen, and he's your second brother."

An Yunze didn't show favoritism and saluted as well: "Hello, second brother."

An Yunshen couldn't stand this: "No need to salute, just call us the same as Xier in the future, we are all family, there's no need to be too formal."

"Okay."

An Yunze was very obedient, and his well-behaved appearance immediately made An Yunshen feel a surge of love in his heart.

Looking at his slightly thin, white-haired third brother, An Yunshen suddenly felt an impulse, and then he patted his chest and promised An Yunze: "You are my younger brother from now on. If anyone dares to bully you outside, tell your second brother and he will help you deal with it!"

An Yunxi suddenly coughed: "Ahem"

The sound she made immediately caught An Yunshen's attention.

"Yunxi, what's wrong with you?"

An Yunxi smiled with her lips covered, her eyes curved into a pair of crescents.

"Second brother, what you said is really a bit exaggerated."

An Yunshen didn't understand.

"Why am I so arrogant?"

An Yunxi smiled and said, "If someone really bullies the third brother, you won't be able to beat him even if you go over, after all, the third brother is more powerful than you."

An Yunshen: "Ah, this"

This is embarrassing.

He didn't doubt An Yunxi's words at all, but he couldn't take them back since he had said them.

"Then my elder brother and I will help you vent your anger!"

An Yunze didn't think there was anything embarrassing about An Yunshen saying such a thing.

His eyes were full of gratitude.

"Thank you, second brother."

Even if he could protect himself, it was still good to have someone agree to stand up for him.

Is this what family is?

Mrs. Du said, "Don't just stand there, eat. If you don't eat, the food will get cold."

Her eyes were full of smiles. She picked up a piece of food with the serving chopsticks and subconsciously put it into An Yunze's bowl. However, she realized that the table was a bit too big today and she couldn't reach it.

Mrs. Du could only give up and warned An Yunze: "You are so thin, you must eat more meat."

An Yunze was silent for a moment, and really listened and picked up the meat to eat.

He used to live in a temple and had always eaten vegetarian food. Even after returning to secular life, he still couldn't avoid this habit.

But today, he will listen to his mother.

Everyone's eyes fell gently on An Yunze. Everyone in the An family had great enthusiasm for this new member of the family.

However, at this moment, a servant's report suddenly came from outside the door.

"Prince, there is a person outside the palace. It is said that she is Lianzhi, the maid who served Madam Du twenty years ago."

Upon hearing the news, Mrs. Du was obviously stunned.

"Lianzhi?"

She almost forgot the name.

Twenty years have passed. In the first few years, she sent people to look for her, but gave up because of no results.

As a result, this person suddenly showed up today.

Things are a bit weird.

Mrs. Du looked at An Yunxi for the first time.

"Xier, does your mother want to meet this person?"

As the mother-in-law of the Regent King, Mrs. Du is no longer as innocent as before.

She vaguely smelled the conspiracy.

Because, it was too coincidental.

She had just found her biological son, and the maid who had been missing for twenty years showed up. It was so coincidental!

An Yunxi suddenly laughed.

"Meet, of course I have to meet. No matter what the other party is planning, as long as the person shows up, it will be easy to deal with."

An Yunze had put down his chopsticks, and he felt a little uneasy.

"Mother, I'll step aside."

Mrs. Du immediately waved her hand: "What do you mean by step aside? Just let her come in directly. We are having a family dinner, and we can't let an extra person spoil the mood."

Who dared not to listen to her words today? Everyone stayed in the living room, and then saw the door open and a woman was brought in from outside.

The woman was wearing a coarse linen dress, her hair was messy, as if she hadn't washed it for a few days, and her face looked quite haggard, she had become a yellow-faced woman, and even Mrs. Du almost didn't recognize her at first glance. As

soon as she entered the room, the middle-aged woman knelt directly on the ground.

"Madam, I'm sorry!"

After saying this, she knocked her head on the ground, and the people in the room even heard the sound of her forehead hitting the ground.

Mrs. Du had a calm expression, still sitting in her original position and asked, "Lianzhi, where have you been all these years?"

Lianzhi cried, "Those thieves killed people in the temple at that time. Lianzhi was very scared at that time, and together with Grandma Gao, she took you and the young master to a safe meditation room and hid them. As a result, someone broke in later, and that person wanted to kill without saying a word."

She paused, and then continued, "In order to protect you and the young master, Grandma Gao took the initiative to rush over and hold the other party, and asked me to take you and the young master away, but Lianzhi was useless. At that time, I was so scared that I ran away alone in a fit of anger."

Mrs. Du understood.

She thought of the wet nurse Grandma Gao who died for her, and her eyes suddenly turned red.

So this is how the situation was at that time.

She fell into a coma right after the birth of the child. She had no idea what happened afterwards. She only saw the miserable corpse of Gao Mama and the crying baby.

At that time, she thought Lianzhi had led the murderer away and was worried about him for a long time.

As a result, the maid ran to her and told her that it was too dangerous at that time, so she ran away alone, leaving everyone behind!

Lianzhi saw that Du was angry, and she cried and kowtowed again.

Once, twice, and three times, there were bloodstains on the ground.

She raised her still bleeding forehead, and said with a guilty look: "Lianzhi knew she was wrong, so she hid herself and didn't dare to show up for so many years, fearing that you would punish me. But this matter has been tormenting me for so many years, making me unable to sleep at night and uneasy, so today I took the initiative to come to you, Madam, to confess my guilt!"
