Chapter 3

Watching Tang Huizhou leave, Yun Niannian's drowsiness had already been disturbed.

She frowned, still simply washed up, and decided to check this small courtyard that belonged to her.

Xiangfu has a professional gardener to take care of it, and all kinds of flowers are planted everywhere, and her yard is no exception.

Yun Niannian was not interested in flowers at first, but after a brief glance, her gaze suddenly froze.

The leaves are broad and ovate, and the calyx is cylindrical. This is... Datura?
She knelt down and sniffed the scent of the flower lightly, feeling more confident in her heart.

Really, why did the Prime Minister use this highly poisonous thing as an ornamental.

This thing looks inconspicuous, but its flowers and leaves can cause convulsions and coma, and the seeds are even more poisonous, taking three pills can cause death.

Cuiping, who was following at the side, watched Yun Niannian's careful movements, and asked curiously, "Miss, what are you doing with this morning glory!"

Yun Niannian glanced at her speechlessly: "Find a flower pot and move this flower into the house for me."

After what happened last time, Cuiping naturally didn't dare to disobey, but she couldn't help complaining: "What's so beautiful about this morning glory, why don't you plant some roses."

Yun Niannian raised her eyebrows lightly: "This is not morning glory, this is a mandala. You'd better find some water to wash your hands after a while, otherwise if you eat a little by mistake, the gods will not be able to save you!"

Cuiping's body froze, and the movements of her hands became more agile, and she ran away as soon as she planted it, and she must have rubbed off a layer of skin on her fingers.

After scaring this restless little girl, Yun Niannian was in a good mood, humming a little tune and counting her small treasury.

The original owner had no sense of saving money at all, only a lot of gold and silver jewelry.

Yun Niannian counted some, wrapped them in cloth, and called for Cuiyu.

"Take these and go to the pawn shop to exchange for some bank notes. Remember, don't ask for a large amount, and share a few more."

Cuiyu was startled, and quickly persuaded: "Miss, madam won't be so cruel, you don't need to be like this..."

Yun Niannian glanced at her, her tone was light but unquestionable: "Go as you please."

Cuiyu pursed her lips, nodded and left.

Yun Niannian put the rest of the jewelry back into the box, and she gained some confidence in her heart.

She has no intention of going head-to-head with the heroine blessed by the halo, if she can't stay, she should have something close to her.

Regardless of how Yun Niannian planned his way out, a distinguished guest was welcomed in the hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"Mrs. Hou, you are here this time, do you have something important to discuss?"

Mrs. Zhen Guohou nodded, and said euphemistically: "I heard that your mansion has found the wrong child many years ago? Then the marriage contract between the Marquis' mansion and the Prime Minister's mansion... Madam Xue, what do you think?"

She paused, with a polite smile on her face: "Mu'er also told me before that he and Nian'er don't seem to get along, even though the parents ordered the matchmaker's words, the children's opinions must be consulted, right?" ?”

Xue Pingjuan naturally understands that Mrs. Hou is euphemistically expressing that Yun Niannian is too domineering and the prince doesn't like it, so she can only respond with a smile: "I was negligent, so, I will call Zhou'er to you to see each other, let's talk about other things." .”

She winked at the big maid beside her, and soon, the maid led Tang Huizhou in an apricot dress and walked in.

"Mom, you call me."

Xue Pingjuan smiled and waved at Tang Huizhou: "Zhou'er is here, this is Mrs. Zhen Guohou, come and say hello."

Tang Huizhou showed a gentle smile, stepped forward and said, "Hello, madam."

Mrs. Hou looked this pretty girl up and down, and nodded with a smile: "This is really the blood of the Xiangfu. She was born dignified and elegant, and she is a good girl."

Tang Huizhou smiled shyly: "Mrs. Hou praised her absurdly. The wife is the one with a good appearance. If it hadn't been for the mother's introduction, Zhou'er would never have thought that the wife would have such a handsome son as Shizi."

Being praised together like this, Madam Hou smiled even more: "This little mouth is too sweet!"

Xue Pingjuan also laughed and said, "Zhou'er is very sensible."

Madam Hou nodded, but there was a hint of hesitation in her eyes.

Although she also loves to hear these good words, but she is so flattering and flattering when she first comes up, it is somewhat impossible to get on the stage.

Perhaps she has been raised at the bottom for a long time, so she doesn't have the demeanor of a lady.

Sensitively seeing the slight disgust in Madam Hou's eyes, Tang Huizhou's eyes sank.

What Madam Hou's Mansion, aren't they some superficial women who can only see their backgrounds!
Tang Huizhou's eyelashes trembled slightly, hiding the resentment in his eyes.

When she marries into the Hou's Mansion, she must firmly grasp the power of the head of the house, so that this old woman will not dare to be dissatisfied with her in the slightest!
"Well, I'm going to hold a flower viewing banquet in a few days, and there will be a lot of noble children participating, let Zhou'er come to join in the fun, so that the two children can meet."

After all, the Prime Minister's Mansion has a high position and power, and it would be of great benefit if they can marry with the Hou Mansion.

Not being able to get on the stage is also good, unlike those high-ranking daughters who are difficult to handle.

With her own little calculation in mind, Mrs. Hou left satisfied.

After watching her leave, Tang Huizhou let go of the blood-stained hand.

"Mother, does Mrs. Hou dislike me?"

Naturally, Xue Pingjuan would not fail to understand, but just patted her head awkwardly: "When Mrs. Hou gets to know Zhou'er better, she will know that Zhou'er is all right."

Tang Huizhou nodded pretending to be depressed, and suggested softly: "Why don't you let my younger sister go to the flower viewing banquet too, my younger sister is so outstanding, she will definitely win Madam's heart, so as not to let the Xiangfu lose a great opportunity."

Xue Pingjuan feels sorry for this sensible daughter, but thinking that if Yun Niannian is not allowed to go, her proud temper will be hit hard, not to mention that what Tang Huizhou said is somewhat reasonable, so she nodded her head.

"Good boat, don't worry, mother will definitely invite a good master to cut your clothes for you, and the prince will be attracted by you!"

Tang Huizhou hugged Xue Pingjuan coquettishly, but there was a stern look in his eyes.

Yun Niannian's temperament is notoriously bad in the capital, presumably the calmness these days is just a forced pretending that she is worried about being thrown away.

Just as she was asking for a little guidance, this person's true nature would be exposed, and by then...

Tang Huizhou raised his lips and sneered silently.

Miss Xiangfu, she can only be alone!

……

"Miss, Miss Zhou has brought you new clothes."

"Give me clothes?"

Yun Niannian looked up at the dazzling sun, narrowed her eyes, "That's right, the sun comes out from the east."

Cuiping secretly rolled her eyes speechlessly.

Before she got up, Tang Huizhou quickly walked in with his clothes.

"Sister, come and try to see if it fits."

Yun Niannian raised her eyes slightly, and looked at Tang Huizhou, who had a smirk on her face: "You will not be rewarded for nothing, sister should keep it for herself."

Tang Huizhou's expression froze, but he quickly said softly: "Mother specially sent someone to do this. Madam Zhen Guohou will hold a flower viewing banquet at home in three days, and we all have to attend it."
