Prince, kneel down quickly, the lady can't run away

"Sincerely, I have met my mother-in-law and all the sisters-in-law."

"Greetings, Prime Minister." The three young men of the Su family bowed in greeting.

"I don't deserve it. Prime Minister, please don't embarrass me." The old lady said carelessly, her hands warming the wine.

"Mother-in-law...why don't you come and call for help?" Wen Cheng said to Wen Xi, and the illegitimate children Wen Ziqi and Wen Moliang.

"Hello, grandma, aunt, and cousin," the three said in unison. They looked like triplets, but Wen Xi was still better than them in appearance. He must have taken after his mother. Thinking of this, the old lady was not embarrassed and just hummed.

"Grandma, do you want to come to my yard and take a look?" Wen Jiu could see that her grandmother came today to see her, so she didn't want to make things difficult for her by sitting here.

"Nonsense, the elders are chatting. Let Xi'er and Liang'er take your three cousins ​​to the front for a walk. You and Qi'er stay here and serve." Prime Minister Wen rebuked

"What do you need them to serve? Where is the mistress of your Prime Minister's Mansion? She must not be up yet, right?" Zhao asked.

"Mother is in the backyard preparing meals. She got up early." Wen Ziqi's tone was full of dissatisfaction.

“Oh, I was wrong.”

"My dear, you should watch out when you go to the front yard. Let them know the proper etiquette that you, the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, should have. It's not difficult to be close to your grandma. After your grandmother's birthday is over, you can go and stay for a few days. Sister, what do you think of my suggestion?"

"Very good, very good, Jiu'er can stay with you more and fulfill his filial piety, which is great." Old Lady Wen had no choice but to quickly respond.

"Then your grandmother and aunt are talking here, you can't blame Jiu'er for not accompanying you. I'm leaving now."

"Go ahead, monkey, and be polite"

"Yes"

"You go down too. I have something to talk to your grandmother about," the old lady said to Wen Ziqi. Without even looking at her, she just said yes and left.

"You old woman, what's so great about that? Isn't it just discussing and announcing that she is the legitimate daughter of the Prime Minister? Humph, she will die sooner or later." Wen Ziqi was so angry that she pinched the maid beside her. This made the maid feel terrified, because when the second lady, oh no, the eldest lady was not back, her own lady was still gentle and graceful.

"Who are you scolding?" Wen Jiu's voice sounded, frightening Wen Ziqi, who quickly shook her head and said, "I didn't say anyone, it was just the maid who did something wrong."

"is it?"

"Yes, sister, um, wine."

"After today, you should get used to calling me sister, right?" Wen Jiu's proud and ostentatious smile hurt Wen Ziqi, who was furious and was interrupted. "It's just right for you to be here. Jiu'er, you don't know the young ladies in Beijing. Qi'er, you go to the front to greet the guests with your brother, and Jiu'er will help in the kitchen. I heard that your grandmother is here, I'll go and pay her respects."

"Yes, mother." Wen Ziqi's anger was immediately extinguished, and she walked away with her head held high. Wen Jiu didn't care. She didn't know anyone in Beijing, except for the passionate girl Zhao Keke. Thinking of her, Wen Jiu smiled and walked towards the kitchen...

"Miss, just now clearly..."

"It was my grandmother who asked me to go to the front yard, right? My grandmother wanted me to show my face in front of the ladies as soon as possible, but I didn't like this, so I had no choice but to go. Now it suits my heart, but I'm afraid that it will be difficult for Madam to get rid of her reputation of abusing me."

"Miss is really amazing"

"What's so great about me? They just want to rush into the muzzle of the gun, and there is no way to stop them. They are so stupid. They do it even though they know it is impossible. Xuan Ling, there is no need to pity them. Come on, I will take you to eat delicious food today, and by the way, I will bring some back for Xuan Xing and Bai Zhi to taste first."

"Wow, thank you Miss."

Compared with the bustle in the front yard, the back kitchen was full of servants and cooks, who were busy washing, cutting, and preparing vegetables. They came to try this and that, and it was very pleasant. Xuan Ling followed behind.

"Miss, I finally found you. Miss Zhao is here, waiting for you at Fumeng Courtyard, and..."

"Xuan Ling, gone"

"Oh"

As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw a girl in a fiery red dress, with her hair tied up high with a ribbon, without any decoration. She was holding a whip and looking impatiently at the young man in front of him. Her skin was very white, a healthy color, with bright eyes and white teeth. She was not stunningly beautiful, but full of heroic spirit, but also good-looking. Wen Jiu's first impression was that she was a young female general. He only heard her say, "It's been many years since we last met, and Master Wen is still the same as always..." Although she didn't finish her words, everyone knew that it was definitely not a good thing.

"Oh, I won't bother with you, but my sister heard that you were back, so she asked me to come look for you first. She is in the pavilion in the front yard greeting the young ladies."

"Your sister? As far as I know, your biological sister is back. Oh, by the way, this is her yard! You came when Wen Ziqi asked you to. Are you her servant? I know her very well?"

"you...."

"What do you mean by 'you'? What face do you want, and what face do I give you? Don't let her get her attention. I won't send you."

"Miss Chu really carries forward the reputation of the big family to the fullest, but don't forget, this is my home."

"Thank you for the compliment, Master Wen."

"You're...good"

Wen Jiu then realized that his brother came to his courtyard to help Wen Ziqi win over Miss Chu. It seemed that this lady was of extraordinary status, but why was she here? Didn't they say that Ke Ke was here?

Wen Jiu stepped forward and was hugged by a blurry figure. "Jiu Jiu, where have you been? Your brother is so fierce that he scared Chu Nan and me."

"Scare her? Miss Zhao, you probably don't understand her! She caught all kinds of insects at the age of three, caught poisonous snakes with her bare hands at the age of five, and killed bandits at the age of ten. She is so cruel and ruthless, and so scheming."

"Master Wen, I know everything you said. How could Tunan be so scheming?"

"Oh, a little child dared to break in. If he hadn't used all his tricks, how could he have swept them around and killed them all in one night? Appearances are both real and fake." After saying that, he looked at Wenjiu for a few breaths and then left. There seemed to be a lot of things in his eyes, but it was a pity that Wenjiu didn't see it now.

"Hmph, you are such a disgusting brother," Zhao Keke said as she pulled her to meet Chu Tunan.

"Miss Chu is polite, my name is Wenjiu"

"You are Wen Jiu, I have heard of your great name for a long time."

"Miss Chu, have you heard of me?"

"That's right, Coco has been whispering in my ears so much these days that my ears are almost callused."

"It's funny"

"Miss Wen's poem about lotus is very good."

"Thank you for the compliment," Wen Jiu didn't want to explain that it wasn't him, after all, the news had already spread that day.

"Jiujiu, she is just as quiet as you. She is Chu Tunan, from the Chu family in Yandu. We have known each other for many years by chance, so I brought her to see you. Will you blame me for acting on my own initiative?"

"No, Miss Chu, please come in and sit down." Wenjiu invited them in and gave Xuanxing a look.

"Jiujiu, this is the Songgui duck from the First Floor that I brought you. It's crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. You'll be satisfied with every bite. There are also these dim sum that are notoriously hard to buy in their store. I got up early and queued up to buy them myself, so I'm late. Look at how bad I look." Wenjiu looked at her, and her face really didn't look very good.

"Didn't I tell you that you can come and play with me without bringing anything?"
