Luo Chengzhang even said to little Yining, "Although Yilian is your sister, she is weak and not in good health. Although you are her younger sister, you should give in to her more on a daily basis."
How could Xiao Yining not feel aggrieved after hearing what his father said?
Yi Ning looked at Luo Yilian carefully, thinking that she was indeed pitiful, with her pointed chin and snow-white skin, it was clear that she would be a beauty in the future.
"Thank you, Fifth Sister." Yining said with a smile, and Xuezhi accepted the sachet on Yining's behalf.
Lin Ruhai and Chen Lan greeted each other and departed. The other girls stayed behind to learn needlework. This was a task for the girls, and the old lady had hired a nanny to teach them.
Luo Yiyu was already thirteen years old, and with marriage proposals approaching, she was studying very diligently. However, Luo Yixiu couldn't sit still and would get tired after studying for a while. The nanny who was teaching her saw her squirming around like a worm under her butt and said with a smile, "Fourth Miss, you must be tired after studying for so long. Take a break."
Luo Yixiu was very happy to hear this and pulled Yining out to feed the fish.
Mrs. Luo immediately warned, "You can only play in the small pond. Don't go too far."
Yining was still lying in bed digesting her food when she was pulled out.
The two of them took their maid to the rockery, where a small pond held many koi. Luo Yixiu sent her maid off to fetch fish food, wrinkled her nose, and said, "You didn't even call me when you went out last time. I heard your third brother took you to Daci Temple. Was that fun?"
Yi Ning said rather angrily, "I almost didn't make it back. Do you think it was fun?"
Luo Yixiu came over and said mysteriously, "By the way, speaking of your third brother, I overheard my mother and my mom talking last time."
Yi Ning had nothing to say to her eccentric fourth sister. She even told her what she had overheard Chen Shi talking about. Luo Yixiu continued, "It's about your third brother's biological mother. Are you really not interested?"
Yining finally raised her head and looked at Luo Yixiu, who became even more pleased: "You want to hear it, right?"
She was impatient and immediately leaned over to whisper in Yining's ear, "I heard your father had two concubines. One of them got pregnant, and the other got jealous and put poison in her tonic soup. When our grandmother found out, she was furious and wanted to beat the poisoned girl to death. But who knew it turned out that the poisoned girl was also pregnant—with your third brother."
"You can't hit her now. Your mother was kindhearted and kept the girl well fed and well fed, saying that if she really gave birth to a son, she would spare her life. But she died of complications during childbirth. Because of this, everyone dislikes your third brother, even your second uncle. They say that if the mother was so cruel, what good could the child do?"
Yi Ning was stunned after hearing this. No wonder Luo Shenyuan had such a background.
She found it strange. Even if he was born to an ordinary concubine, his status would not be so low. Old Lady Luo would not dislike him so much.
