Started as a thatched house and ended up as a female figure

When Cheng Wan came out of the Prince's Mansion, it was almost three quarters past the twilight hour. There was no other official business to be done today, so Cheng Wan simply went straight back to the backyard of Suiyi Building.

"Mom?" Cheng Wan called out to her first when he entered the room.

"You're back? I'm packing my things in the house."

Wang's voice came from a room.

"Miss!"

Cheng Xiaoyu and several other children ran out cheering.

Xu Zhinian came last, holding Gu Yu's hand.

This scene was too happy.

Cheng Wan sighed, ran over with a smile, then picked up Cheng Xiaoyu who was running in the front, and swung the little girl in the air.

"Ah! Big sister!"

Cheng Xiaoyu was extremely excited. The orange glow of the setting sun fell on her smiling face, bright and warm.

Cheng Hua and Li Yuan quickly hugged Cheng Wan's waist.

"Big sister, I want one too!"

"And me! I want it too!"

Cheng Wan put Cheng Xiaoyu down, held Cheng Hua and Li Yuan in his arms respectively, and took them around for a few circles.

"Ah! Big sister! Ah! Big sister!"

The two little girls screamed with excitement, calling out "big sister" again and again. If you didn't know, you would think something had happened to their big sister.

Old Mrs. Lin ran out of the kitchen with a worried look on her face. Seeing this scene, she covered her chest and gasped. She wanted to say something, but in the end she rolled her eyes speechlessly: "Sanxiong, Awan is back. Don't wait there. Go and have a rest. Do whatever you want."

"Got it, grandma." Deng Xiong agreed verbally, but his body was still blocking the door of Cheng Wan's room.

Next to it were the refreshments that Wang had brought him earlier...

In the courtyard, Cheng Sanping and Li Zhuang were very moved when they saw Cheng Hua and Li Yuan so happy, but they were already grown up and needed to be careful about the boundaries between men and women.

Cheng Wan put Cheng Hua and Li Yuan down, walked over and rubbed the two little kids' heads: "Do you want to play?"

“No…Ah!”

Cheng Wan took advantage of the two kids not paying attention, picked them up, and then quickly put them down.

"Hahaha......"

The two little brats were a little confused. Cheng Wan laughed and rubbed their heads again, then walked over to Xu Zhinian, picked up Gu Yu, and took a deep sip: "It's so delicious, so good to suck!"

Xu Zhinian shook his head helplessly, and then couldn't help laughing: "Look at you, how can you look like a marquis?"

"There's no one else here."

Cheng Wan lightly touched Xu Zhinian, her smile pure and bright.

Cheng Wan carried Gu Yu inside and asked Xu Zhinian as he walked: "Except for my grandma, my mother, my third brother, and Xiaoyu and the others, has everyone else gone back?"

"Uncle Daniu and his friends bought a lot of things and went back to the village, and your second brother went to see Miss Ru off.

Miss Ru originally wanted to wait for you to come back before leaving, but it was getting late, so Grandma Lin decided to let your second brother take her back.

I guess we're almost home by now."

At this point, Xu Zhinian glanced at Cheng Wan's profile with a smile, and said softly, "When Miss Ru goes back and tells her family about your attitude towards her, they will be very happy."

She is also a girl, so she can naturally empathize with Ru Yu Niang and the Ru family. It is also easy for her to understand why Cheng Wan wanted to reassure Ru Yu Niang in public.

"Just be happy."

After saying that, Cheng Wan also saw Deng Xiong sitting at the door of her room.

"Third brother, I'm here, you should take a rest."

Deng Xiong felt satisfied that he had completed the task assigned by Cheng Wan, and then he pinched his fingers awkwardly and said in a muffled voice: "Ah Wan, you are going to the capital this time, should I, should I continue to stay in Liangzhou?"

"Brother San, do you want to stay in Liangzhou or go to the capital together?"

Deng Xiong is already an adult and is still learning skills from his master. Cheng Wan cannot make decisions for Deng Xiong without permission.

Deng Xiong immediately shouted: "I want to go to the capital with you!"

"Then let's go together." Cheng Wan made the final decision with a smile in his eyes: "Third brother, take some time to ask for leave from your master. When we return to Liangzhou, third brother will continue to learn skills from your master."

Deng Xiong nodded heavily, then scratched his head and laughed. He thought he would be left behind when going to the capital this time. "I'll go now. My second brother said that we have to transport things back to the village tomorrow."

"Going at this time?" Cheng Wan frowned slightly: "Will it be time for dinner?"

"It's okay. I've eaten the food cooked by Master's Wife. It's not bad."

Cheng Wan: "..."

Xu Zhinian burst out laughing.

Cheng Wan was silent for a moment, then shouted towards Wang's room, "Mom, give my third brother some silver."

She really has no money left.

Wang came out of a room, her hand still touching her waist: "What's wrong? Are you going to buy something?"

Deng Xiong also looked at Cheng Wan in confusion.

"Third brother is going to ask for leave from his master. He will be gone for more than three or five days, and he may even have to have dinner at his master's house.

I thought of asking my third brother to buy two jars of good wine and two roast chickens for his master to take to him. The more gifts, the less blame."

The master that Cheng Wan found for Deng Xiong was introduced by Xiao Tongtai, a colleague from Xingnong Yamen.

He is a bodyguard.

The escort was a strong man with a delicate mind. When he saw Deng Xiong's physique, he liked him very much.

Although Deng Xiong is not very smart and does not have any shrewd ideas, he is very obedient and will do whatever he is told to do.

The escort wanted someone like this, and he was sincere to Deng Xiong.

After listening to Cheng Wan's words, Wang nodded repeatedly, took out a few pieces of silver from the purse on her waist and handed them to Deng Xiong. Feeling that it was not enough, she took out two more pieces, and finally stuffed the entire purse into Deng Xiong's hands.

"Go to the most famous Zuixian Winery in the city and buy good wine. Do you understand?"

Deng Xiong nodded, held his purse tightly, and walked out.

Wang turned around to go back to the house, but suddenly turned back: "No, I'll go with you. What if someone tries to trick Sanxiong with bad wine? After all, this is to be given to Master Sanxiong."

As she said that, Wang hurriedly chased after him, still shouting, "Sanxiong, wait for me."

After Cheng Wan watched the whole thing, she truly felt that her mother had a very deep filter for her third brother.

In her mother's eyes, her third brother is extremely naive and foolish, and she always feels that people outside will hurt her third brother.

But given her third brother's appearance, who would dare to mess with him?

"Mom, I want to go too!"

Cheng Xiaoyu ran away following Wang, and then Cheng Sanping and others followed quickly.

Well, all of a sudden, only Old Lady Lin in the kitchen, Cheng Wan, Xu Zhinian, and Gu Yu were left at home.

Old Mrs. Lin came out with a fire poker in her hand. She only had time to see the heels of the children. “It’s almost time for dinner! Come back quickly after you finish shopping!”

"Grandma, do you need any help?"

Old Lady Lin waved her hand and said, "Don't come near the stove anymore. If a marquis is busy with kitchen matters, people will laugh at you."

"Grandma, you are still a noble, but you are holding a firewood stick, aren't you?"

Having said that, Cheng Wan put Gu Yu down and walked towards the kitchen.

Old Lady Lin quickly stopped Cheng Wan and said anxiously, "Why are you so rude?! There's nothing I need your help with, just go and talk to Nian Nian for a while, don't get in the way here!"

Hey!

Cheng Wan raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Old Lady Lin.

She didn't have any baggage, but the people around her gave her the burden first.

"Hurry up, don't waste time with me, I'll be ready soon. I tell you, when we get to the capital, I won't even go into the kitchen anymore. I'll just wait for people to serve me every day!"
