Wu Qianqian went to live with Mrs. Qian's parents' house for a few days, and then shouted that she wanted to go back to Ning'an Hou Mansion.
Mrs. Qian's siblings sent the person back, and when they saw the old lady, their faces were full of embarrassment.
"This child has to say that he misses Butler Wu. I know that the child still misses the Hou Mansion in his heart. He will be sent back to stay for a while. I will pick him up in a few days."
The old lady saw how much she loved Wu Qianqian and picked her up with a smile.
"Relax, I will send him back to you in a few days."
Mrs. Qian's younger siblings didn't say anything and went back in the carriage.
Because of Wu Qianqian's current status, she could not live in Si Ning's courtyard, so the old lady arranged for Wu Qianqian to live in an empty courtyard.
Later in the evening, she invited everyone to come to her courtyard for dinner.
Si Ning and Jiang Linrou also came. At the door, Jiang Linrou pulled Si Ning and said softly.
"I always feel like something is going to happen again, so you should be more careful."
Si Ning looked up at Jiang Linrou and asked lightly.
"Sister-in-law, the eldest brother is at the border and plans to come back when. You should get closer to the second brother. I can't help you."
This is the truth. Dafang has always relied on the old lady and the second room. Even if Lu Hanxiao was not injured before, he never helped Dafang.
Si Ning also asked Lu Hanxiao about this, and Lu Hanxiao gave a very subtle answer.
"My eldest brother is not suitable for work. I dare not recommend him."
But he recommended Lu Zhiyuan. He felt that Lu Zhiyuan was more suitable to serve as an official in the government than this eldest brother.
Si Ning has not delved into the twists and turns of this.
But she was sure that Jiang Linrou knew it, so her gesture of kindness made Si Ning wary.
No one would treat someone sincerely without any benefit, unless they are friends.
But Si Ning didn't think she and Jiang Linrou were friends, at least their personalities were too different.
Jiang Linrou turned pale at what she said. When she opened her mouth to defend, Li Xutang walked out.
She was going to pick up Wu Qianqian. When she saw the two people coming over, she smiled and said hello.
"You two arrived late. Mother has urged me several times. Come in quickly. If you have anything to say, you must say it today."
Wu Qianqian was found by Lu Qingling, the second room raised his head again, and Li Xutang was no longer depressed as before.
She felt that with the help of the British father-in-law, their second wife would soon become prosperous and would no longer have to rely on Lu Hanxiao to make a living.
Li Xutang turned around and walked out with a red face.
Si Ning looked at it without saying anything and walked towards the house.
When we got inside, it was indeed as Li Xutang said, it was late, even the Li family had arrived.
The eldest son of the Li family and Li Honglin were talking to the old lady. The old lady liked these two grandnephews very much and always saw the shadow of Lu Baohu in them.
"When the sun gets better, we will go out for a walk with my aunt."
Li Honglin's mouth was very sweet, and he called her "aunt" every time, which made the old lady happy.
Compared to him, the eldest son of the Li family seemed much duller. When he opened his mouth, he sounded like the ancients and was extremely boring.
Si Ning walked in, and several people's eyes fell on her.
Li Honglin's eyes lit up, and his eyes wandered to Si Ning's chest without any scruples.
Si Ning frowned in disgust, just as Jiang Linrou arrived to help her out.
"What are my brothers and sisters still doing here, why are they still standing here and not saying hello to their mother?"
She pulled Si Ning to salute the old lady, and the old lady gave them a rare good look.
"Don't be stunned, sit down, Si Ning, although Qianqian came out of your room, it was Ling'er who found her, so don't show off."
This was a reminder to Si Ning not to take the credit from Lu Qingling. Si Ning smiled and nodded.
"Auntie, Lin'er is curious. Since Sister Qian lives in the third aunt's room, how did Sister Ling'er discover the birthmark on her body? Do they sleep together?"
Li Honglin raised his face, seemingly innocent.
But these words shocked the old lady.
Li Honglin looked at Si Ning again and winked at her playfully, which made Si Ning frown a little tighter.
She pretended not to understand what Li Honglin meant and remained seated.
At this moment, Li Xutang's voice sounded from outside, and he led someone in.
"Mother, look who's coming."
Wu Qianqian was brought in, followed by Lu Qingling.
After Wu Qianqian came back, the old lady asked Lu Qingling to stay with her.
The euphemistic name is that she is worried that Wu Qianqian will give up her life, but in fact, she just wants to deepen the kindness and let the British princess's natal family know that the second wife is taking care of their girls when they are in the Ning'an Marquis Mansion.
The old lady waved her hand for Wu Qianqian to sit next to her, and Lu Qingling naturally followed.
The Li brothers made room for the two of them and sat next to their father, while Li Xutang sat with them.
"Why hasn't Zhiyuan arrived yet?" Li An asked.
Li Xutang also felt strange, so she asked people to find Lu Zhiyuan.
Lu Zhiyuan arrived late, holding a brocade box in his hand.
He saluted the old lady, and when he stood up, his eyes glanced at Wu Qianqian beside her.
His back was turned to everyone, so no one noticed his glance, except Lu Qingling.
Lu Qingling's hanging hands were clasped tightly, but she didn't say anything. She just turned her eyes aside and pretended not to see anything.
When everyone arrived, the old lady asked people to serve dishes.
She seemed to like Wu Qianqian very much, pulling her to ask questions, but most of them were about Mrs. Qian's natal family.
Wu Qianqian is still very timid, which is how she used to be, which makes people feel easy to control.
She replied one by one, but her voice was a little soft.
"Don't be afraid. If you get bullied over there, just come back and tell us that this is your home too." Lu Zhiyuan, who had been silent for the whole time, said.
Wu Qianqian looked towards him, the affection in her eyes undisguised.
Li Xutang felt strange and glanced sideways at his husband, then his eyes fell on the brocade box in his hand.
"What's this?"
She reached out to take it, but Lu Zhiyuan blocked it first.
"It's not for you, hurry up and eat."
He looked at Li Xutang's hand with disgust. Li Xutang noticed it, and embarrassment flashed in his eyes.
She looked in the direction of the old lady again and stopped when she saw that no one was looking at her.
Si Ning saw everything with his eyes, and the spoon in his hand made a slight sound as he scooped up the soup in front of him.
The soup is rich and Si Ning likes to drink it.
While drinking the soup, I thought about what was going to happen next, with sparkles between my eyebrows.
The Lu family thought Wu Qianqian was a little white flower, but this little white flower would turn them upside down.
But this had nothing to do with her. She drank the soup in front of her and waited for a good show.
After the meal, the old lady asked Wu Qianqian to talk. Wu Qianqian seemed a little distracted.
From time to time he glanced aside, and everyone saw it.
"What's wrong with Qianqian?"
"Old madam, I feel a little uncomfortable and want to go back first."
Wu Qianqian lied, but no one would expose her.
The old lady still asked Lu Qingling to accompany Wu Qianqian, but Lu Qingling was reluctant this time.
She is the eldest lady of the Lu family, not just a servant.
I just couldn't go against the old lady's wishes, send Wu Qianqian back to the room and leave with an excuse.
As soon as she stepped forward, a figure flashed into Wu Qianqian's room.
After a while, some melancholy sounds came out.
