Stepmother's Adoption Letter

Chapter 357: A Smart Woman Fights a Man (3)
After a tureen and a few small plates came out, Qiu Xiu's face sank, "Is this what you brought back?"

Mei Xiang hurriedly knelt down to plead guilty, "When the servants went to the kitchen to have a look, the cook said that's all they had. She also said...that the other masters also ate these."

Qiu Xiu immediately dropped a cup.She just came out from the old lady's place, how could she not know what they ate?It is indeed porridge and side dishes. The porridge looks like it has been carefully cooked, bright in color, and the ingredients are ordered, rather than this kind of mess stewed into a pot.

Qiu Xiu squinted her eyes, it seemed that this little Yuan family was determined to make the whole Chengguo government embarrass her.

Mei Xiang knelt on the side without saying a word, and gradually there were sounds of people walking around in the yard, and the servants came back after eating.Only then did Qiu Xiu let her get up, and then she ate the food that Mei Xiang brought back without changing her face.

Yuan Lu talked to the old lady for a while, and the two brothers said they were going to play by the lake. Because it was a rare holiday, Yuan Lu called two more maids to follow, and let them go.Sister Xi also said to go back to the house and do some embroidery.

Only Gao Fei and Yuan Lu were left in the room, and the old lady looked at this and then that with a smile on her face.In the end, Yuan Lu couldn't take it anymore, so she said that there were still some things to deal with, so she went back first.

Before she stepped out of the courtyard door, Gao Fei followed.

Yuan Lu stepped back three steps vigilantly, "Deng Deng Deng", "What's the matter?"

Gao Fei saw her guarded face and said, "It's okay."

"It's okay, why are you following me?"

"This is the way out."

Yuan Lu retreated to the side, "Go first, I'm not in a hurry."

Gao Fei snorted softly, raised his long legs and walked away.

Seeing that the plague god was finally sent away, Yuan Lu walked briskly back to her room.

Seeing her coming back, the servants in the room couldn't help but look behind her, fearing that a dark-faced Duke would follow behind her.The Duke stayed with them for one night, and the atmosphere in their room was suppressed all night.After their wife went out in the morning, all the servants in the yard wished they were counting cats, and they dared not make any noise when they walked.

Yuan Lu sat down and moved her neck, and complained to Mama Hua: "I don't know which tendon is wrong, and it will be a night here."

Mother Hua said: "It's not a bad thing. After all, it's for your face, so that the government will know that even if the Duke of Qi's family is from the Duke of Qi's house, the current emperor is a matchmaker, and he still can't compare with you."

Yuan Lu curled her lips, this is not a long face, it is obviously to bring hatred to her.Now Qiu Xiu doesn't have to think about other ideas, just fight her imaginary enemy.

"Stupid women fight with women, and smart women fight with men." Yuan Lu said, "I hope she is smart."
