The uncles and the mother are from the same mother's childhood, and the two aunts have both given birth to two sons and no daughters, so they have been doted on Wu Tianrou since childhood. Every time he comes to the Prime Minister's Mansion to visit relatives, he will definitely bring gifts to Wu Tianrou.

The eldest uncle Li Minshan is an official in Linxian County, although he is not a big official, but he belongs to the backbone of real power. Uncle Li Minwen didn't like to be an official, so he started business, and the business he did was quite big, so he was not bad for money.

"Uncle and aunt gave it, you can accept it."

Seeing her brothers and brothers-in-law doting on their daughters like this, Mrs. Wu was even happier than she had received the gifts.

"Okay, then my niece will be ashamed, thank you uncle and aunt."

Handing over the things to Cui Ping and Cui Zhi behind him, Wu Tianrou bent down to salute, smiled and thanked sweetly.

"Okay, okay, my niece has really changed a lot, and she is more ladylike."

The little uncle Li Minwen looked at Wu Tianrou's generous and decent posture, and also looked at Mrs. Wu happily and smiled.

"Mother, all the courtyards have been cleaned up, I wonder where my mother arranged for my uncles to live? By the way, why haven't you seen a few cousins? ”

Wu Tianrou thought of the business and hurriedly replied to Mrs. Wu.

"Well, your uncles live in the willow garden in the front yard, your cousins live in Zixu's Bosi Courtyard, and your aunts and uncles will live in Haitang Garden temporarily." After thinking about it, Mrs. Wu said.

"A few of your cousins and Zixu went out to play, and the boys couldn't stay idle, and they were all active like monkeys."

After saying that, Mrs. Wu and her two aunts all laughed.

"Okay, you have worked hard all the way here, go to the garden to rest first, and then go to see the old lady later." At this time, the old lady should have a lunch break. ”

Standing up, Mrs. Wu instructed the eldest girl Huanzhu and Onyx to take their uncles and uncles to their respective courtyards to rest.

Wu Tianrou sent everyone to the door, returned to the house and said a few more words to Mrs. Wu, and then got up and went back to Yunxiang Courtyard to rest.

Leaning on the chaise longue, she was gently pressed by Cuiqin on the acupuncture points on her legs to relieve fatigue, and Wu Tianrou couldn't help but fall asleep comfortably.

Pomegranate Courtyard

Wu Chengcheng sat on a rattan chair in the courtyard, embroidering an embroidered screen under the pomegranate tree to give the old lady the four gods of Fulu and Suxi, this embroidery was about to be completed, and it was almost the final finish.

Gently embroidering the last few stitches, Wu Chengcheng took the embroidery brace and looked at it carefully, and nodded with satisfaction.

"Miss, the second prince sent someone to inform Miss, saying that he has done everything you explained, so that Miss can rest assured."

Lu Ping walked in from outside the courtyard, quickly walked to Wu Chengcheng's side, and said softly.

"So he took Huancai away without attracting anyone's attention, right?"

Reaching out to take the small brush handed over by the nurse Jia's mother who was sitting on the side, Wu Chengcheng carefully brushed the embroidery that had just been embroidered, and brushed the embroidery thread neatly and beautifully.

The second prince said that there was no problem, and no one would find out that the person was taken away by him. He brought it back first, and when the time came, he would arrange it for him to be in the Zhuangzi in the suburbs, and then arrange for her to meet with her family when he had time. ”

Raising her hand to support Wu Chengcheng's embroidery brace, so that she could brush the embroidery thread with a small brush, Luping briefly explained the matter.

"Thank you for the great grace of the young lady, if there is no help from the young lady, my sister will accompany the second young lady to marry in a remote town, and the family will be separated at that time, and it will be rare to see each other in her life. Thank you, Miss! ”

Huan Qiao, who was standing on the side and waiting, suddenly knelt at Wu Qingcheng's feet, and kowtowed with gratitude on his face.

"Okay, you don't have to thank me, this is also your loyalty to me, you have been helping me watch Aunt Liu's movements in the past few years, you have also worked hard, I asked the second prince to help save your sister. Remember, I will never let anyone who is faithful to me suffer! ”

Putting down the small brush in his hand, Wu Chengcheng raised his eyes and glanced at a few maids.

"Okay, don't cry, I'll arrange for you sisters to meet when I have the chance. Lu Qiao, you take the ring to go in and wash your face. ”

Waving his hand at Lu Qiao behind him, Wu Chengcheng lowered his head again to look at the embroidery, no longer paying attention to Huanqiao.

Lu Qiao stepped forward to help Huanqiao up, and the two walked quickly into the lower room of the wing room and went to wash their faces.

"Miss, not only did you come forward to ask for Huanqiao, but this time you also helped her open her mouth to the second prince, begging him to save Huancai and owe the second prince a favor in vain, is it worth it for you to do this?"

Mother Jia moved Xiudun towards Wu Qingcheng, approached her and whispered.

It turned out that Huanqiao and Huanyun, who were Aunt Liu's eldest maids, were originally sold because Aunt Liu was sold, and they were facing the situation of being reassigned to work. And because they had served Aunt Liu, they were not loved by Mrs. Wu, the housewife, so they had to be assigned to Zhuangzi in the suburbs.

Just before sending them away, Wu Chengcheng came to ask to see Mrs. Wu, and on the grounds that there were only two big girls around him, and some things were too busy to ask for another big girl, he asked Huanqiao to leave.

This time, Huanqiao is not an important person, and he is not loved by Mrs. Wu; Second, everyone thought that Wu Tingcheng's injury was Wu Tingshui's fault, so they all felt that she had been wronged a little, and they wanted to make up for her.

Because of this, Mrs. Wu didn't say a word, and asked Wu Tingcheng to take Huanqiao away very happily. So now, Huanqiao is the maid of Miss Wu Chengcheng.

Waving his hand to let Lu Ping go down first, Wu Chengcheng took the embroidery brace and looked at it carefully in his hand.

"Mother Jia, I understand what you mean, you are afraid that your aunt will be angry with me who wants her maid because she doesn't like Aunt Liu."

Putting the embroidery brace on the small table, Wu Chengcheng raised his hand and patted Jia's mother's hand.

"But after all, Huanqiao has been doing things for me for so many years, and in this mansion, I am just an orphan girl under the fence. If you want money or not, if you want power, if you want power, if you have no status, how many people are willing to use it for me? ”

"I'm the only one who is close to you, Lu Qiao, and Lu Ping, who accompanied me into the prime minister's mansion. Therefore, I have to protect the people who are willing to be used by me, so that they can be used by me more desperately, so that I can achieve my goal as soon as possible and get ahead! ”

"Alas, it's really bitter Miss!"

Mother Jia pulled Wu Qingcheng's white and tender little hand, and looked at the pinholes on her fingers that were pierced because of the embroidery screen of the four gods as a birthday gift, and her face was distressed.

"It's a pity that the old lady went early, and I don't have any skills, so it's hard for the young lady to plan for the future. This embroidery screen lady has been embroidering for half a year, and I think I will definitely be able to please the old lady this time! ”

Wu Tianrou knew that she was arrogant and indulgent, and at this birthday banquet, she must shine in front of everyone and be loved by the old lady.

Secretly making up his mind in his heart, Wu Tingcheng stroked the embroidered screen and showed a smug smile.
