The Duke's Daughter is Reborn

For several days in a row, An completely obeyed the Duke's orders, limiting her daily activities to the main house and never stepping out of it.

Except for maids and old women who were allowed to enter and leave the courtyard to get daily necessities, no one else, even the Sixth Miss, was allowed to enter the main house.

After another failed attempt, Yang Jing turned around and was about to leave, but was stopped by Aunt Yin who was approaching from a distance: "Sixth Miss."

If it were before, Yang Jing would have looked down on her father's concubines and would have turned around and left.

But now, her mother has lost her power and has been temporarily confined to her home, and Yang Jing's arrogance has been suppressed a lot.

At this moment, Yang Jing actually stood there obediently and said, "Aunt Yin."

Aunt Yin stepped forward without a smile: "Sixth Miss, I saw it was you from a distance, and I can recognize you clearly even though I am old and my eyes are blurry."

Yang Jing smiled and said, "Aunt Yin is joking."

Although she was smiling, Yang Jing wanted to turn her face and leave. Aunt Yin was not even thirty years old, so how could she be said to be "old and dim-sighted".

Is this a roundabout way of trying to make me admire her for being young and beautiful?

However, in terms of age, my mother is younger than Aunt Yin and looks better.

If she were asked to praise An, Yang Jing would be able to praise her for three days in a row. But when it came to Aunt Yin, let alone anything else, Yang Jing didn't even have the desire to speak.

"Aunt Yin, I have some other things to do right now, so I have to hurry back to the courtyard." Now in the Mansion of Duke Song, Yang Jing's life is indeed not as convenient as before when An was in charge of the miscellaneous affairs, so Yang Jing has been keeping a low profile these days.

I think that until the issues of An's Changshou Hall and the placement of the primer money are resolved, Yang Jing will keep a low profile.

Seeing Yang Jing trying to get away, Aunt Yin asked with concern, "Sixth Miss, how is Madam doing these days?

I heard that Doctor Bai was called in to take a look a few days ago."

Mother called Doctor Bai? Yang Jing frowned. She really didn't know about this. "Thank you for your concern, Aunt Yin. Mother has been feeling a little unwell recently. Fortunately, everything is fine now."

After going through some things, Yang Jing spoke more tactfully than before.

Hearing that Madam was fine, Aunt Yin finally showed a smile on her face: "That's good, Madam is fine, I can finally put my mind at ease."

Yang Jing and Aunt Yin were talking outside the yard. The door was not closed, so people in the yard could naturally hear their conversation.

When An heard Sister Jing's voice, she became curious and leaned in to listen more closely. What was this Aunt Yin planning that made her so kind as to come and see her?

Worried that Sister Jing would suffer, An quickly said at the entrance of the courtyard: "What a rare guest! I didn't expect that Aunt Yin would come here today."

Because An was standing right at the gate of the courtyard and had not yet left the main gate, the servant sent by Song Hongwen would not stop her.

When Aunt Yin saw An, she ignored the sarcasm in An's words and said with a smile: "Sister, seeing that you are in good health, I feel relieved.

The Duke has been very busy these days, and I haven't had time to come visit my sister.

Today, if I have time, I will put down everything I am doing and come to visit my sister first."

Aunt Yin called her "sister" all the time, which made An feel very uncomfortable.

What? She was just punished by the Duke to kneel in the ancestral hall for a few days and she hasn't been divorced yet, but this concubine Yin has started to change her mind.

"Thank you for your hard work these days." An was not stupid. She naturally knew that Aunt Yin came from far away not just to visit her, but was deliberately trying to cause her dissatisfaction.

Xing'er and Jin's mother in the back pricked up their ears and stared at the movement in front. Although Jin's mother really disliked Xing'er on weekdays, with the threat from Aunt Yin, the two of them now directed their attacks outward.

"If you came here today just to see if I am well, now that you have seen me, you can go back." Since Aunt Yin spoke so impolitely, there was no need for An to show any mercy to her.

Aunt Yin had already prepared for An's estrangement: "Sister, you are joking. Since I came here today, I have something to tell you.

Isn't my sister curious about what will happen next at Changshou Hall?"

Xing'er behind him thought to herself, "Thank you for your concern, Aunt Yin, but the Duke has been worried about my wife these days and has given her some instructions."

Xing'er's words saved face for An, but everyone in the Duke's Mansion knew that An was now under house arrest by Song Hongwen.

As soon as these words were spoken, the maids and old women who were doing their own things at the side put down the rags, brooms and other items in their hands, and looked over here vaguely.

Feeling the secret gazes of the crowd, the smile on An's face began to fade.

Xing'er realized that An was in a bad mood and she realized that she had said too much.

It's all over. I handled some things too smoothly these days. Now I'm talking too much and making my wife unhappy.

Xing'er felt a pang of regret. The Madam had been in a bad mood these days, and now that she had said the wrong thing, she would have to do something to make up for it.

Mother Jin, who was standing by, couldn't help but secretly rejoice when she heard what Xing'er said. In the past few days, Xing'er would rush in front of the lady whenever she had the chance, no matter whether it made sense or not, as long as it was something the lady liked to hear, Xing'er would follow the lady and talk to her every day whenever she got the chance.

It just so happens that the lady has been in a bad mood these days, so she is willing to listen to Xing'er's nagging every day.

Aunt Yin looked at the scattered maids and servants of the An family and thought to herself, "Sister, Changshoutang has been in the capital for quite some time, and the medicinal herbs sold there all have their own channels. How could something go wrong?"

An stared at Aunt Yin for a long time and said, "What do you know?"

Aunt Yin took a few steps forward and got closer to An: "Sister, come closer, I'll tell you."

For some reason, Mrs. An was listening to Aunt Yin's words, as if fascinated, and silently moved forward.

Because the maids and old women from the main house gathered at the entrance of the courtyard, the courtyard gate, which had been quiet these days, suddenly became lively. The servant standing by did not notice that An had left the courtyard unknowingly.

When An and Aunt Yin were almost touching each other, Aunt Yin suddenly grabbed An's hand and threw herself to the ground. At the moment of falling, she let go of An's hand, leaving An with a look of disbelief.
