Juanjuan, whose adoptive parents had died, was sold by her uncle for ten silver dollars into the Warlord's Mansion to bring good luck to the severely ill only son, Si Jinchen.
She thought...
Chapter 169 Doesn’t Juanjuan hate her uncle?
Meng Yanxin sat on the sofa: "I'm not here to promote your store, but it's really good."
"You know I'm picky. I wanted to take care of your family's business, so I went to Rouge Button."
"These cosmetics are the same in every store, so I just bought what I use every day. I want to change but I don't know what color to buy. I'm afraid I won't like it."
"By the way, your brother's daughter-in-law is quite interesting. She helped me choose my cosmetics."
Si Ning's smile deepened: "You're talking about Juanjuan."
"Yes, yes, you should have seen her after you came back. This kid is really good." Meng Yanxin was very happy when she talked about Juanjuan.
"My child is naturally good." Si Ning was rarely arrogant for a moment.
"Okay, okay, I'll bring her home to play when I have time. I still have a report to finish writing, so I won't chat with you any more." Meng Yanxin looked up at the clock on the wall.
"Okay, I won't delay you from doing your work." Si Ning hung up the phone.
"Ruanruan, left hand." Juanjuan sat on the carpet and stretched out his hand to play the handshake game with Ruanruan.
Si Ning walked over to her and sat down: "Juanjuan, is this Ruanruan?"
"Yes, she is Songsong's wife." Juanjuan nodded immediately.
Ruanruan tilted her head and looked at Si Ning, then came close to her, sniffed her, and wagged her tail.
"Woof woof. Family."
Juanjuan reached out and touched her head: "Yes! This is my aunt."
"Auntie, there are also spotted chickens and hens." She pointed to a few chickens in the chicken coop nearby.
Si Ning looked at the fat and strong chickens in the chicken coop and asked: "Are these killed for food?"
"Cluck! We're working hard to lay eggs, and you're still thinking about our meat."
"Ohhh! We don't eat it. We can't eat it."
"Auntie, we can't eat them. They are family members." Juanjuan protected the chicks behind her.
"Okay, okay, if Juanjuan says you can't eat it, then you can't eat it." Si Ning smiled and touched her head.
She was just curious about why people kept chickens at home. Now that she knew, she naturally wouldn't think of eating them.
Si Jinchen and Ma Yang now have more homework, and they have much less time to play than Juanjuan.
There are not many people at home in the Governor's Mansion every day. Today, Madam Si went out to play cards with her friends.
"Juanjuan, do you want to help your aunt tidy up the room?" Si Ning planned to live at home permanently, so he thought about tidying up the room.
"Okay, Juanjuan can help." Juanjuan took her hand and walked towards the third floor with her.
Si Ning's room had been cleaned before the New Year, but many of her things were moved to the Miao family when she got married.
Instead, it seems a bit empty here.
Juanjuan looked at the empty room, not knowing how to help.
"Knock knock knock!" The door was knocked at this time.
"Aunt, Master Jiu has sent your things over." The housekeeper's voice came from the door.
"Come in!" Si Ning said towards the door.
Soon a group of people came with boxes of various sizes and placed them on the ground. "Madam, Master Jiu asked us to bring these over. Do you want us to help you organize them?"
"No need, you guys go back! By the way, please tell him a message for me. If he dies, I will remarry immediately." Si Ning said to the few people.
A few people looked at each other, and finally could only nod in agreement.
Juanjuan tugged at Si Ning's skirt with a confused look on her face: "Aunt, where's uncle?"
"My uncle has to go out and do some things. He will be back in a few days."
Si Ning pulled her to sit on the small sofa beside her: "Doesn't Juanjuan hate your uncle?"
Juanjuan shook her head: "Uncle is very good! He likes Aunt the most!"
"He's so fierce, and you still think he's good?" Si Ning looked at her with some amusement.
Juanjuan smiled brightly: "Uncle likes aunt, so Juanjuan also likes uncle."
Because she could feel that her uncle did not pinch her face intentionally, and he was not a bad person.
"Okay, let's pack up!" Si Ning touched her head.
"Okay!" Juanjuan smiled and started to help.
Si Ning looked at the clothes in the box. Most of them belonged to Miao Jiu, and hers only took up a small part, and they were all loose clothes.
There wasn't a single slim-fitting cheongsam or anything like that, which left her speechless.
"Auntie, I'll get it for you." Juanjuan was afraid that she would be tired from bending down and standing up again.
Si Ning looked at Juanjuan who was holding a set of clothes and handed it to her, and her heart warmed a lot: "Thank you Juanjuan."
"Auntie, let's come and help too." Si Jinchen and Ma Yang also came in.
"Then please help me open the other boxes so I can see where they are." Si Ning naturally would not be polite with the children at home.
Ma Yang opened the boxes deftly. Most of them contained daily necessities, things that Si Ning was used to using.
The shoes they sent were all flat and soft shoes. There were no other shoes with heels.
Juanjuan helped hand the clothes to Si Ning. After she finished tidying up the clothes, there was a thin layer of sweat on her forehead.
Squatting and standing up is also very tiring.
Si Ning looked at the children, all sweating on their foreheads: "Take a break."
She pulled Juanjuan to sit on the sofa, waved to Ma Yang and Si Jinchen to sit over, and poured water for the three children.
"Have Achen and Xiaoyang finished their homework?"
"It's all done." Si Jinchen replied.
Si Ning asked them about some academic matters. When it came to Juanjuan, Ma Yang and Si Jinchen were at a loss for words.
She noticed the two children's strange expressions and changed the subject.
Today, Aunt Wu asked another servant to help sell milk tea. After she got the hang of it, she went back home to cook.
Knowing that Si Ning was pregnant, she was happier than anyone else and made food suitable for pregnant women.
Bai Qiao helped in the kitchen. She knew how precious this baby of her aunt was, so she worked with extra care.
"Aunt Wu, is there anything else I can help you with?" Bai Qiao wiped the water off her hands and placed the washed vegetables on the table.
"Bai Qiao, if you have nothing to do, please help me knead the tapioca flour to prepare for selling milk tea tomorrow." Aunt Wu pointed to the large basin next to her.
"Okay, I'll go now." Bai Qiao walked to the table and sat down with a large basin. The brown sugar inside was already prepared, and she only needed to knead the dough.
"Aunt, we're here to help!" Juanjuan ran in from outside the kitchen.
Si Ning shouted from behind: "Slow down, don't fall down."
"Aunt, just let her go." Si Jinchen took her hand and walked slowly with her to the kitchen.
Wu Ma and Bai Qiao looked at the little person who ran in with a smile: "Miss, please take it easy."
"Aunt, Sister Qiaoqiao, Juanjuan, come and help me rub the little pearls." Juanjuan said as he rolled up his sleeves.
