"Creak", the door was pushed open, and a man dressed as a butler walked in and saluted Cheng Miao.
"Miss Qiao, you have been waiting for a long time. Our master may come home late today. Madam, please go and meet the young master first."
Cheng Miao nodded and smiled, "Thank you very much."
Lin Zhu, who was still in a daze, saw Cheng Miao transform into everyone's daughter 0.0 in one second.
Walking in the nine-curved corridor, Cheng Miao tried his best to talk to the housekeeper and learned that he was Qiao Shui, the daughter of the Qiao family in Shangjing, and Lin Zhu was the second young master Qiao Mu.
The Qiao family was infected with the plague a few years ago, and neither the master nor his wife survived it. Now, even though he is young, he still has to support the family.
This time, the daughter of the Qiao family brought her younger brother to her father's old friend's house to connect with each other, hoping to develop and prosper together.
When he arrived at the main hall, Cheng Miao saw a woman dressed as a lady already in the hall.
This woman was so beautiful that she was so beautiful that even in real life, Cheng Miao had never seen such a beautiful woman.
The fragrance on the woman's body is astonishing. Although it is strong, it is not pungent. Instead, it makes people feel like she is like a fairy from the Nine Heavens.
"Miss Qiao, this is our Mrs. Chang." The housekeeper reminded kindly on the side. After this communication, he had no idea about the Qiao family who had to take care of such a large business at such a young age that he was still in his twenties and was still unmarried. The favor of a daughter is doubled.
"Hello, Mrs. Chang." Cheng Miao and Lin Zhu, who didn't know what dynasty or etiquette system they were in, could only follow the rules and salute.
Fortunately, Mrs. Chang didn't mind this at all and enthusiastically helped Cheng Miao up, "Shui'er can't help but call me sister-in-law as usual."
Cheng Miao and Lin Zhu bravely called for help. Mrs. Chang asked them to have a good rest and treat this as their own home without restraint.
"I didn't expect you to arrive so late, but are you hungry? Could you ask your servants to prepare some midnight snacks?"
Cheng Miao and Lin Zhu, who had just entered the dungeon and still couldn't tell the difference between friends and foes, dared to eat rashly. He happened to have eaten his stomach before entering the dungeon, so he refused.
It was getting late now, and it was estimated that Mr. Chang would not be able to see her. Worried that Mrs. Chang would see off the guests if she sat around for a while, Cheng Miao pretended to mention the Chang family's young master casually.
Mrs. Chang showed a loving smile and said, "The two of them are still sleeping. They are still young and only know how to eat and sleep. It's late today. Come back tomorrow and I will definitely meet your nephew."
Cheng Miao deliberately observed Mrs. Chang's expression. Mrs. Chang mentioned that the love in the child's eyes almost overflowed, and it didn't look like he was cheating.
Cheng Miao smiled and said a few perfunctory words before returning to the room with Lin Zhu. The men and women were on guard. Originally, the two of them lived in two rooms far apart, but there were many crises in the dungeon. Lin Zhu took advantage of the moonlight and ran to Cheng Miao. The outhouse is paved on the floor.
"Sister Miaomiao, it seems that Mr. Chang in the mission was just born. I don't know what kind of accidents he will encounter." Lin Zhu searched through the house where he lived, but did not get any clues about the age. He thought that this could only be an imaginary era.
"What if you're sick? We won't see a doctor. If it's an evil spirit, we won't exorcise ghosts." Lin Zhu was afraid of strangers and would start to chatter around familiar people.
Speaking of fighting evil, Cheng Miao thought of the attribute "Ghost Friend" that he obtained in the [Abandoned Courtyard] copy. Until now, Cheng Miao didn't know what the use of this bUff was, although Cheng Miao didn't really want to know. .
"No one else saw it either. Who knows whether it's an enemy or a friend." Lin Zhu was still chattering outside. Cheng Miao blew out the candles in the room, and after a while there was no sound outside.
Worried that some horrifying scene would appear in the middle of the night, Cheng Miao counted the sheep in trepidation. This dungeon really had no clue, and unlike the previous two dungeons, she didn't feel any danger.
Consoling himself that "I'll settle down now that I've come," Cheng Miao finally fell asleep.
The next morning, the servants were quietly working in the yard, and Cheng Miao woke up.
My spirits improved a lot and I didn't dare to delay any longer. As soon as the day broke, I took Lin Zhu for a walk in Chang's Mansion under the pretext of Lin Zhu's habit of doing morning exercises.
The inner house is the residence of the owner's family. Cheng Miao, who is visiting relatives from afar, can't go into the courtyard and can only walk in the garden of the Chang Mansion.
Although the Chang family is just a small wealthy family, the garden is exceptionally beautifully maintained. Thousands of beautiful flowers bloom in the garden, exuding a fragrant floral fragrance.
"Sister Miaomiao, this is very similar to the smell of Mrs. Chang." Lin Zhu smelled this and that.
Cheng Miao nodded, "The ancients loved to incense and use flowers and plants to make sachets. It seems that Mrs. Chang is no exception."
They caught a little maid who came to water the flowers, and the two tried to extract information about the Chang family. Unexpectedly, the maid asked the question and asked, "How can we servants know the origin of the name of the master and his wife?"
Looking at the little maid running away, Lin Zhu sighed in frustration, "It's not that wealthy people talk the most about gossip, why are the people here so simple?"
Cheng Miao walked to the main hall indifferently, "Maybe the method is wrong. Later, you can take some money and go to the corner door of the kitchen to ask my mother-in-law."
Lin Zhu slapped his forehead, "Yes! Money can make all the difference. We still have a little bit of silver in our baggage."
The peonies in the garden are blooming particularly well, and there are a bunch of lush green ones. Two of them have just been transplanted at any time. The buds have just grown, but they are extremely delicate and stand tall among the flowers, which is very eye-catching.
Even someone like Cheng Miao, who knew nothing about flowers and plants, stopped to take a look.
The housekeeper who came to look for someone saw Cheng Miao and Lin Zhu stopping by the flowers, and said with a kind smile: "Master Chang loves peonies very much. Madam found a way to move them from Luoyang. They are very precious."
Cheng Miao pretended to be a flower lover and nodded repeatedly, but hesitated a little, "Such a precious flower must cost a lot, right?"
The housekeeper was a little complacent, with a bit of arrogance in his eyes, "That's natural. The monthly expenditure on the flower house accounts for one-third of the Chang Mansion's expenditure. But if I can't boast, the flowers in the capital are not as good as our Chang Mansion."
Cheng Miao suppressed the light in her eyes and nodded.
"Madam is awake, and the master is also here. Let me invite you two to have breakfast together." Cheng Miao politely asked the butler to lead the way.
"Originally, the second master and the second wife were also coming, but the second master suddenly fell ill. It happened that two charlatans came to visit this morning. The second wife was still accompanying the two doctors for consultation this morning."
Cheng Miao and Lin Zhu, who were walking behind, looked at each other. As expected, the two charlatans must be played by players. They didn't know which pair they were and what their mission was.
After walking for about ten minutes, he arrived at the front hall, where food had already been set. Cheng Miao was able to see Mr. Chang who had returned home late yesterday.
Mr. Chang is in his thirties, with a plain face and a bit bookish. When he saw Cheng Miao, he greeted him cheerfully. "I didn't expect that my little cousin would look so beautiful after not seeing her for several years."
Um? Lin Zhu frowned. Is this what a brother should say when meeting his sister?
Cheng Miao calmly dodged the hand that wanted to pat her body, "Brother, your wife is so beautiful that you can't even find her with an incandescent light, and she still wants to steal sex."
Hey, man!
