Chapter 261: Si Yuzhu

"Just the two of you?"

Anyone who hears this will be surprised.

They were a group of women who couldn't even kill a chicken, yet they didn't even bring any guards on the road. How confident must they be in the security of the capital?

"Yes, two people are enough to serve you."

Yuan Siyin glanced back at Yulan thoughtfully, "Fine, consider yourself lucky, let's go."

This meant that they agreed to take her back to the Yuan residence. Yulan didn't care about anything else and hurriedly picked up her bundle and followed behind the carriage.

"Sister, that cousin is so pretty, but she speaks in a soft voice and is easily frightened, like a rabbit."

Yuan Fuqing lay on Yuan Siyin's knees, stretching out his slender arms to reach the snacks on the wooden table.

"Even prettier than my older sister?"

Yuan Siyin found it somewhat amusing, and leaned forward slightly to place the plate in front of him. "How about letting her be your elder sister?"

Yuan Fuqing was so startled that her hand trembled, and she almost dropped the pastry. She shook her head more vigorously than a rattle drum: "No, no, I only want my elder sister. I don't want any of the other sisters, no matter how beautiful they are."

Besides, she's not as pretty as my older sister; my older sister is the prettiest!

"You're certainly good at flattering people." Yuan Siyin pinched his chubby little face without any mercy.

As the siblings were talking, the carriage slowly came to a stop; they had arrived at the Yuan residence.

I've been away from home for quite a while now, so it's impossible for me not to miss it.

Yuan Siyin didn't ask Ziyuan for help, nor did she bother to climb down the steps. Instead, she jumped off the carriage with a swift and decisive motion, only to be met with a scrutinizing gaze.

The woman at the door was dressed in a plain green dress, her long, dark blue hair tied up with a simple jade hairpin. She had a beautiful face, and her eyes, beneath her willow-leaf eyebrows, were bright and lively, as if they held a pool of clear spring water. Although she had a delicate and graceful figure, she possessed an elegant temperament nurtured in the water towns of Jiangnan.

This must be Si Yuzhu, the legitimate daughter of the Si family.

Si Yuzhu took in what could be described as her rude actions, but did not show any disapproval. She simply nodded to her from a distance as a greeting.

Yuan Siyin smiled and led Yuan Fuqing to her side, asking, "Why is my cousin standing at the door?"

Si Yuzhu held her delicate handkerchief close to her lower abdomen, and upon hearing this, she pursed her lips and looked at her softly, saying, "This is the first time I have met the princess. I dared not be negligent and came as soon as I put down my bundle."

"Cousin, you don't need to be so reserved, and you don't need to call me Princess. Just treat the Yuan family as your own home."

On the way back, Hongxiu told me that my cousin only had two servants to serve her, and she was afraid that she wouldn't have enough people when she needed them, so she sent Yulan over first.

As for the remaining guards and the various decorations inside the house, Zi Yuan will arrange for them to be sent over.

Yuan Siyin waved her hand, and Yulan immediately stepped forward and respectfully greeted her: "Greetings, Miss Si."

"Then I thank you, Sister Siyin."

Si Yuzhu lowered her head somewhat embarrassedly: "Thank you for your kindness. I'm afraid I'll be troubling you for a while longer."

"We're family, so there's no need to bother you. You're too kind, Sister Yuzhu."

The gatekeeper pushed open the vermilion gate and welcomed the group inside. Yuan Siyin patted Yuan Fuqing on the back and sent him back to his courtyard. She then took Ziyuan and Hongxiu and followed Si Yuzhu to the newly renovated courtyard to see if there was anything that was not suitable.

"This is Ziyuan and Hongxiu, they are my personal attendants. You can ask Ziyuan for help if you need anything."

If my cousin has any food preferences or dietary restrictions, she should tell Hongxiu. Hongxiu is an excellent cook, and my cousin will definitely enjoy it.
