Chapter 180 Greed
Anqing Mansion——

Duan's backyard.

After the former magistrate took office, the house was returned to the court.

The new magistrate takes office and takes over official affairs, official seals, residences and other matters.

Mrs. Duan was not idle either. She took care of things in the back house and held banquets in various houses.

After a month of busy work, everything was completely settled.

What we have to do now is the family dinner.

However, the master likes to eat the dishes of Furong Restaurant, so he simply ordered a table of good wine and delicious food in the restaurant.

I heard that my cousin's wife was pregnant. As a sister-in-law, she couldn't slack off.

No, she was going to choose some expensive items in her dowry, the kind that meant more children and more blessings.

During this selection, I lost track of time and picked out quite a few good things.

"Aunt Rong, help me choose, which one is best?"

"Madam has a keen eye, and the items she has selected are all of the best. I really can't think of anything else. It's better for you, madam, to make the decision."

"You, try your best to use nice words to prevaricate me."

"The slaves dare not."

While the master and servant were chatting and joking, the maid outside the courtyard came to report that Miss He'er came to say hello.

Hearing this, Mrs. Duan glanced at her, and Grandma Rong nodded, signaling the maid to carry the things into the inner room.

After everything was tidied up, he relaxed and let the people in.

"He'er has met her adoptive mother. I wish her adoptive mother good health."

Lian He'er was like a weak willow supporting the wind, walking slowly and generously, stepping forward to greet her.

Not to mention that the etiquette is perfect, there is not even a single flaw in the manner.

"No courtesy, please sit down."

Mrs. Duan has a warm smile on her face. If you look carefully, you will find that the smile does not reach her eyes.

But Lian He'er lowered his eyes at this moment, unable to see anything.

Even if he sees it, he will not break up, but will choose to continue to act stupid.

"He'er, are you still used to living here recently? Is there any place in the house where the maid is not taking care of you as well as you can?"

Mrs. Duan's tone was gentle, like a loving mother, caring about her beloved daughter.

"Reporting to my adoptive mother, He'er is very accustomed to living there, and the maid and mother-in-law serve her very well."

Lian He'er couldn't help but be on guard and responded cautiously.

She has been in Duan Mansion this month and has not gone out in private.

There is absolutely no fault in every move.

When her adoptive mother said this, was she testing her, or did she have some other agenda?
Mrs. Duan picked up the tea cup, took a sip, and said warmly:

"That's good. Your adoptive father will entertain our brothers at Furong Restaurant in two days. You go back and prepare well. Then come with us."

"Thank you stepmother for your support, Na He'er will be well prepared."

Lian He'er couldn't hide her excitement, which meant that she had humbled herself and gained the trust of her adopted father and mother!

Look, they are all willing to take her to meet her relatives!
Mrs. Duan put down the tea cup, wiped her fingertips with a handkerchief casually, and ordered:

"Aunt Rong, take out the jewelry I plan to give to Miss He'er."

"Yes, ma'am~"

Grandma Rong stepped back and turned back to the inner room.

Soon, when he appeared again, he was holding a tray with a large jewelry box in both hands.

Lian He'er covered her lips as if she couldn't believe it, her eyes filled with flattered joy.

Then he frowned in embarrassment, stood up and bowed down and said: "He'er is grateful to his adoptive mother for her love. However, He'er deserves her forgiveness. I also ask my adoptive mother to forgive me. He'er has no merit and no reward. Such exquisite jewelry , it’s better to give it to sister Xuewei.”

Look, these words are so beautiful.

Even Grandma Rong couldn't help but look at this young lady a few more times. She was really good at talking.

Mrs. Duan hid her sarcastic smile and said with emotion on her face:
"He'er, don't belittle yourself. I specially ordered this set of jewelry to be made for you. As a sister, it's good to be modest, but it's yours, so accept it."

Her Xuewei naturally has better jewelry that she chose!

How could she use Lian He'er to let her go?
"So, He'er is disrespectful."

Lian Heer didn't refuse anymore. After pretending to be embarrassed, he figured it out and Shi Shiran accepted.

She gave up as soon as she could, pretending to be sensible and retreating.

After waiting for people to leave the main courtyard, Grandma Rong returned to Madam to serve her.

"You see, this method is so clever."

Mrs. Duan held the heater in her hand and looked at the fragrant bouquet on the table with a sneer on her face.

Aunt Rong put on a cloak for Madam and said in a confused tone:

"Since Madam has seen through Miss He'er, why don't you deal with her as you please and send her away?"

Mrs. Duan leaned on the soft couch and said in a faint tone:
"No one plotted against our Duan family, and we still escaped unscathed!"

When Grandma Rong heard this, she stopped talking. Madam, you have your own plan.

"Xuewei, please be more protective. She has a pure temperament, and she just needs this girl to temper her temper~"

Parents love their children for their own purposes.

I hope my daughter can understand her painstaking efforts.

"Where's the eldest young master?"

"He stumbled before. If he stumbles again, he will be considered useless."

After Lian He'er returned to her yard, she told everyone except Ye'er that they didn't have to wait on her and that they could rest after doing their own thing.

The other maids were very happy and thanked him one after another and left.

After the door was closed, Ye'er closed the window, checked that there were no outsiders inside and outside the house, and nodded to the lady.

"That's great, I'm sure my adoptive mother now treats me better than her biological daughter!"

Otherwise, how could such a fine ruby ​​headband be customized just for her!

She asked Aunt Rong next to her adoptive mother, and she said that she only had this one, not even Miss Xuewei!
Hahaha~
"Miss, does that mean we don't have to look at Miss Xuewei's face in the Duan Mansion from now on?"

Ye'er bit her lip. She was fetching the bird's nest from her young lady in the small kitchen a few days ago, but she was overrun by the cook in the kitchen.

One glory and one glory.

If the young lady outdoes Miss Xuewei, does that mean that she can challenge the cook and get the young lady's share in the future?
"No matter how long you endure, only my gentleness, Shuyuan, can set off sister Xuewei's recklessness and ignorance, so that my adoptive father and stepmother can devote their energy to me!"

Lian He'er stroked the fine gemstone's head with both hands, took out a tassel and shook it, the golden butterfly spread its wings, golden and red, how beautiful it is~
But by being humble and pretending to be well-behaved, she was able to gain such a prestigious reputation. What if she became the only young lady in the Duan family?

What should I do? I can hardly hide the greed in my eyes.

The Duan Mansion is richer than she imagined!

If she is the only young lady in the Duan family, even if she is not her biological child
Ye'er understood the implication of the lady's words and whispered:
"My slave, I wish you all your wishes come true."

"Good Ye'er, if you hadn't been with me all the time, I don't know if I could have survived until now.

When I become successful, it will be your time to come forward! "

Lian He'erxu helped Ye'er up, his tone full of bewilderment.

"My slave, I believe that Miss will be able to make everything she wishes come true!"

"Ye'er~"

The master and the servant each have their own minds, but they have a burning ambition.
