Li Die smiled sweetly at this scene. Liu Yi Chen's bright and bright appearance was still engraved in everyone's heart even after so many years had passed.

"You've been out for such a long time, I'll send you back!" Although he was somewhat unwilling, he did not reveal it. After all, she was still unmarried. If today's matter were to be seen by others, it would ruin her good name.

Li Die nodded. Let him pull her.

Liu Yi Chen only needed to send her to the entrance of the Li Residence, so he let her go back by herself.

"Young lady, you're back! Auntie Zhou was looking for young lady earlier!" When Zi Yi saw that she had returned, she impatiently went up to greet her.

Li Die's eyes darkened as she looked at Zi Yi and asked, "When did Auntie Zhou arrive?"

She didn't think that Auntie Zhou had come to find her for any reason. After all, she had only left Li Xiangnan in her room for the night a few days ago. He should be in high spirits by now!

"A moment ago." After thinking for a while, Zi Yi replied honestly.

She nodded her head and continued to ask, "Can you tell me why you're looking for me?" Thinking about it, there shouldn't be anything good to do. She was just a little bit simple. After all, she wasn't stupid.

Zi Yi shook her head in annoyance. She had also asked about this, but Zhou Yi's wife had only stammered, not wanting to say it out loud for some reason.

"I know." Li Die felt that after going out for a walk, her body was extremely uncomfortable. Naturally, she had no way to deal with her, so she just wanted to quickly bathe and wash off her exhaustion. "Get some water, I want to bathe." After saying this, he strode into the room.

Yan Luo quickly filled up the bath until it was soaked in water. Only then did Li Die let out a sigh of relief. The warm water slid across her skin, causing her to squint.

Li Die was wearing only a white robe after her bath. Water was still dripping from her hair. She held a book in her hands and was leaning against the wall as she read with great interest.

"Miss, Auntie Zhou is here again." This time, it was Yan Luo. It was obvious that she had just taken a bath after returning home. Her entire body was emitting a refreshing feeling, and even her tone had an almost imperceptible feeling of joy.

"Auntie Zhou came so quickly." Li Die rolled her eyes and said with a smile. She didn't seem to want to put down the book in her hand.

Yan Luo didn't understand what she meant. She probed, "How about I kick her out?"

"Since Madame Zhou is in such a rush to see me, it's only natural that you want to. Go and invite Madame Zhou in!" Li Die put down the book in her hands and said to Yan Luo.

"Yes." Yan Luo nodded its head and left.

"Eldest Miss." Her long and narrow eyes were watery as she looked at him, making it impossible for her to say any words of rejection. At this moment, she somewhat understood why Li Xiangnan doted on her so much.

"Auntie Zhou, please take a seat. This is such a hot day, how did auntie recall coming to this place?" Li Die didn't change her posture.

"Thank you, Eldest Miss." Aunt Zhou looked at her nervously, her hands gripping the handkerchief tightly. It was quite different from the last time she had seen her.

"Aunt has been walking for so long, I think she must be in a hurry. Let's eat the frozen watermelon first." A few snacks were laid out in front of Li Die, but she didn't like to eat these. In the end, most of the snacks fell into Yan Luo's stomach.

"Many thanks for Eldest Miss's good intentions. My concubine isn't hot." Auntie Zhou looked at him indifferently, explaining to him while she arranged the watermelons neatly in place.

"It looks like Aunt's still pale, but her body hasn't recovered yet?" Since she wasn't in the mood to eat these things, she naturally didn't continue this topic. However, when she looked at her expression, it was as if she was unintentionally inquiring, but also seemed to be a bit concerned.

Upon hearing her question, Aunt Zhou's body stiffened. She immediately came back to her senses, her face filled with grief. Tears welled up in her beautiful eyes. Truly, I feel pity for her when I see her.

Li Die's expression changed, before she could even open her mouth, she had already changed the topic. Sighing, she said, "Although aunty has lost her child and is feeling unavoidably depressed, you still have to let go of your mind and take care of your body as soon as possible!" There was even a hint of regret in his tone.

Hearing her say this, Aunt Zhou immediately thought of an excuse. With reddened eyes and a choked voice, she said, "I also want to take good care of my body, but Fourth Miss and Madam won't give me this chance. Fifth Miss, please save me!"

"What is Aunt saying? Who doesn't know that mother is the most generous and virtuous person in the estate." She had guessed that Li Rou Ping would not let Auntie Zhou off so easily, but she had not expected her to make a move in such a short amount of time. Moreover, Auntie Zhou had just lost her child, so how could she bear it?

Thinking about this, Li Die frowned. Her heart was in turmoil, but she held a handkerchief and sobbed softly. However, she was afraid that she would annoy Li Die, so she didn't dare to cry loudly.

However, this soft sobbing caused her to feel extremely vexed. Her previous good mood had been completely ruined.

"Aunt, don't cry anymore." Li Die tried her best to control her emotions as she spoke. However, the frown on her forehead revealed her feelings.

When Auntie Zhou saw this, she did not dare to cry anymore. She used the handkerchief to wipe the tears at the corner of her eyes. However, her eyes were still red, making her look rather pitiful.

"The concubine had already lost her child, so her health hasn't been fully recovered yet. The fourth lady has even gotten rid of her concubine's monthly allowance and food from the servants below." Madame Zhou lowered her head slightly, her eyes red as she spoke.

Originally, she was somewhat disgusted with this kind of girl who did not care about the relationship between mother and daughter. However, after seeing her like this, she could no longer be disgusted. With a soft sigh, her voice was so soft that it was hard to detect.

"You are father's concubine. Under such circumstances, you should seek father to make the decision for you." The words that came out of his mouth couldn't help but slow down. They became a bit soft, making one feel as if they couldn't catch up with them.
