Xu Wanning said with a smile, "I am very happy with Mianmian these days, and she takes good care of me. I just want to bring her to live in the house for a few days, and also take her to play in Yancheng."
Cui Lu smiled and ate the last bite of beef porridge: "Okay, you can do whatever you want."
Chen Ming, who was standing beside him, was not stunned for long before his face lit up with joy.
It would be great to be able to visit the Marquis Mansion for a few days.
As long as you go in, you might not be able to get out even if you play around!
His face remained calm, "Mianmian, the Marquis and the others will leave in a moment. Why don't you go back and pack your luggage quickly? Don't waste the Marquis' time."
Chen Mianmian stood up quickly, with a happy body and an excited face like a peach blossom in March: "Mianmian will leave first, and I will go pack my luggage."
She had learned etiquette from her nanny. In the past few days, Xu Wanning had been in contact with her and told her a lot of the rules in the Hou family. Chen Mianmian kept them in mind.
"Go ahead, don't be in a hurry." Cui Lu said with a smile, fearing that he might be in a hurry to the little beauty.
Chen Mianmian blushed again, "Thank you, thank you Lord Marquis." After saying that, he lowered his head like a deer returning to the mountains.
When the person left, Cui Lu's heart also left.
I really want to follow the little girl and see what the mountains and fields she returns to look like.
"Do you really want to go back to the Marquis' Mansion with the Marquis?"
In Chen Mianmian's house, Mrs. Bao also came. When she heard the news, she felt that Chen Ming was teasing her.
Why did the young lady bring Mianmian into the house?
"Yeah." Chen Mianmian nodded.
Mrs. Bao was stunned at first, then slapped her thigh, ecstatically saying: "Mianmian, Mianmian, your blessing has come!"
Chen Ming was also very excited: "Mianmian, when you enter the mansion this time, you can meet the young master, but you must seize the opportunity."
"Yes, Mianmian, Xu Wanning personally mentioned the matter of bringing you into the house. Maybe she has the intention of taking a concubine for the young master. If so, you will have a chance."
Chen Mianmian knew that her parents had misunderstood her, and she did not defend herself.
Parents will only be happy when things work out.
"I know, I will take advantage of the opportunity."
But it was not to the young master, but to another man who was more stalwart and better than the young master.
Mrs. Bao helped Chen Mianmian pack her luggage.
Since knowing that her daughter had this intention, Mrs. Bao prepared a lot of good clothes and jewelry for Chen Mianmian, and this time she put them all on.
"Dress up well, you are no worse than anyone in the house." Mrs. Bao secretly said to her: "Mianmian, a man chases a woman, separated by a mountain, a woman chases a man, separated by a layer of gauze, you stay with the young lady, I will definitely see the young master often, you have to take advantage of this opportunity to capture the young master, do you understand?"
Chen Mianmian nodded: "Yes, I know."
"When necessary, you still have to play some tricks." Mr. Bao added: "If it's raw rice, cooked rice, the young master must be responsible for you, do you understand?"
Chen Mianmian nodded: "Yes, I know."
Mrs. Bao patted her daughter on the shoulder: "Mianmian, let's talk to Mr. Hou now that we are relatives. In fact, it is impossible to get married. If you can marry into the Hou Mansion, then the marriage will be a certainty. And... …”
She deliberately lowered her voice: "There is only one young master in the Hou Mansion. I heard that his face is ruined. If it cannot be cured, another child will have to inherit the Hou Mansion. Mianmian, if you become a man in one fell swoop, your status in the Hou Mansion will be , no worse than Xu Wanning, the head wife, if your child inherits the Hou Mansion in the future, your status will be higher than Xu Wanning."
Could it be that her status was higher than that of Xu Wanning? What she wanted to do was to be Xu Wanning's aunt, and her seniority was much higher than hers.
Chen Mianmian's cheeks turned red, "Mom, I know."
She is still young, only eighteen, but Du Shi is already forty. She is confident that she can survive that old woman.
Xu Wanning is waiting for Chen Mianmian.
Chen Mianmian came here carrying a baggage, and Mrs. Bao sent her here.
Mr. Bao smiled the most happily, "Young Madam, Mianmian depends on Young Madam for your care these days."
Xu Wanning smiled: "Why are you so polite? During the time I was at Zhuangzi, Mianmian still took care of me! Come on, Mianmian, it's getting late. Let's go back home. Father must be waiting impatiently."
Cui Lu was waiting for someone at the gate of Zhuangzi.
He had just changed into a horse-riding outfit.
Although Cui Lu is forty, he still maintains a good figure.
He does not have the baldness and potbelly of a middle-aged man. He is dressed in black and has broad shoulders and a narrow waist. Just looking at his back, one would have thought he was a young talent in his early twenties.
Chen Mianmian stared at the back with burning eyes.
Cui Lu felt eyes on him from behind and turned back gracefully.
When he turned around, he met Chen Mianmian's eyes.
Cui Lu stared at her.
Chen Mianmian was caught peeking at her, her cheeks turned red, she lowered her head, and when she raised her head again, there was clearly a hint of jealousy in her eyes.
Cui Lu was in a great mood, his face glowing red.
Sure enough, love can make people young!
Chen Mianmian and Xu Wanning were sitting in the carriage together.
"You did a good job." Xu Wanning patted her hand, "You have successfully aroused his interest."
Chen Mianmian clutched the handkerchief: "Young madam, what should I do next?"
"We will arrive at the Marquis Mansion soon, so of course we have to visit the madam and the young master first. What you have to do is..." Xu Wanning lowered her voice and whispered in Chen Mianmian's ear.
Chen Mianmian was a little scared: "Is this appropriate?"
Xu Wanning smiled: "I didn't say it was inappropriate, what are you afraid of?"
"Young Madam, you have helped me so much, I cannot be sorry to you."
"When you arrive at the Hou Mansion, you will have to deal with the most powerful person in the Hou Mansion - Du Shi." Xu Wanning explained: "If Du Shi knew what you were thinking, he would have kicked you out of the Hou Mansion and find you the next day. This is a relationship that cannot be lowered. As long as the rice is cooked and the Marquis is responsible for you, there is nothing Du family can do. These days, you have to be patient. "
"Then does the Marquis think that I..." Chen Mianmian was still a little scared.
Xu Wanning smiled: "Don't worry, a man's competitive spirit will only make him more inseparable from you." She opened the curtain, looked at Cui Lu who was riding in front, and pulled Chen Mianmian over, "Let's take a few more looks. , when you get to the Hou Mansion, restrain yourself and don’t let anyone discover your thoughts."
Chen Mianmian stared at the longing figure from behind unscrupulously.
Finally, she was about to take another step forward.
Cui Lu felt that fiery gaze appearing again.
He turned back and subconsciously looked in the direction of the carriage.
Sure enough, outside the opened curtain, a pretty face was revealed, looking at him with intent and affectionate eyes.
Cui Lu: "..."
He was very useful.
For how many years, no one dared to look at me like this.
Cui Lu's heart became hot again.
