Nanny Mei is a shrewd and strict person. She is very strict in guarding Chunhuayuan, making it difficult for any outsider to sneak in.
She also knew that it was not easy to implement her plan. After all, the other party was so defensive that she could hardly find a suitable opportunity to act.
Well then, it seems we have no choice but to wait until Wen Zhu gives birth to the child first.
As soon as the baby is born, send him to Qifangyuan to be raised. As long as we have this child as a handle, aren't we afraid that Wen Zhu will still be disobedient when the time comes?
The trouble caused by Concubine Liu this time was too big. Not only did it cause panic among the people in the mansion, it even made Fu Shuyan, who always cared about her reputation, extremely dissatisfied.
Everything was originally calm, but unexpectedly, on such an important day, Aunt Liu would do such a thing.
That day was originally a reception specially held for her by her stepmother. It should have been a rare opportunity, but because of Aunt Liu's behavior, many guests left in a hurry. Even the young masters who came with her took their leave one after another, making Guanshuiyuan suddenly deserted.
In order to prepare for this gathering, she waited patiently in Guanshuiyuan for a long time, and was always cautious and tried not to offend her stepmother.
It took a lot of effort for her stepmother to agree to arrange such an occasion for her to show up, but she didn't expect it to be completely ruined like this.
The most depressing thing was that Wen Zhu, who should have been punished, was unharmed, but instead, it was Aunt Liu on his side who was scolded and punished.
How can one not be angry in the face of such a situation?
However, even though she was filled with anger, Fu Shuyan could not express this emotion at will.
She was afraid that she would be criticized and punished more harshly by her stepmother for her inappropriate behavior again.
Therefore, I could only choose to stay alone in the room and beat the pillow hard to vent my resentment.
After a long time, as time passed, the resentment in my heart finally faded away little by little.
Fortunately, there were still a few young masters from noble families at the banquet who showed great interest in him, and they cast their glances over here from time to time.
Perhaps after this storm is over, the families of these young masters will send people to propose marriage.
So for now, we can only wait and see how the situation develops.
It’s a pity that her favorite Yu Mubai was not there.
Whenever Wen Zhu thinks of this name, a hint of regret always arises in his heart.
I had originally hoped to meet him on such an occasion, but now it seems that this wish has been dashed again.
Wen Zhu was very grateful that it was Concubine Xiao who came to his aid at the critical moment.
The helping hand that suddenly extends to you in times of trouble is as precious as the warm sunshine in the cold winter.
For this, she specially chose a gift to express her gratitude.
I heard that this person likes to collect various exquisite teacups, which gave Wen Zhu some inspiration.
She carefully screened through many options for a long time, and finally chose a set of "Twelve Flower God Cups" as a gift for the other party.
Each cup in this set is painted with a different floral pattern representing each month, and is accompanied by a corresponding poem to describe the unique charm of this flower.
Both in terms of aesthetics and cultural value, this set of cups is very elegant and unique, which is in line with Concubine Xiao's elegant interests and tastes.
After thinking for a while, Wen Zhu decided to visit in person instead of just conveying her feelings through servants. This would better show her sincerity and respect.
Since you have chosen such a meaningful gift, of course you have to make the giving process full of ritual.
Soon after the post was sent, I received a reply.
Wen Zhu was very happy to hear that he could meet her.
That afternoon, at the designated time, Huang Li, a person close to Concubine Xiao, came to the corner gate in person to welcome Wen Zhu.
The oriole's smile is gentle and kind, which brings great comfort to first-time visitors.
After passing through several paths, passing by carefully repaired bridges and flowing water, and admiring the blooming flowers along the way, they came to a courtyard located deep in the courtyard.
This is the residence of Concubine Xiao, and it is also one of the most eye-catching places besides the Princess Royal.
After all, she is the younger sister of the current queen and the mother of the current prince, so her status is extraordinary.
Therefore, the residences here are decorated extremely magnificently and luxuriously.
Seeing the guests arrive, Concubine Xiao, who was enjoying a leisurely afternoon stroll in the courtyard, hurriedly helped Wen Zhu up as she was about to kneel down to greet them, and gently reminded her, "You are pregnant now, so there is no need to be so reserved."
His words revealed his love and care for the younger generation.
Then Wen Zhu smiled slightly, stood up straight, and began to explain the purpose of this visit. He also asked Su Yue, the maid who had been serving silently beside him, to show the "Twelve Flower God Cups" that had been prepared in advance.
The exquisite teacups were placed on the plate, emitting a delicate and elegant scent, which made one know at a glance that they were of great value.
After looking at it, the concubine was obviously very satisfied and praised: "This gift is exactly what I like. You really know how to choose. Such taste and thought are rare and precious."
The words were full of appreciation for the other person's choice.
"As long as you like it, that's all. This small token of my appreciation really can't express my gratitude to you. I'll always remember your help and pray for your health and good fortune every day."
Wen Zhu responded earnestly, with a sincere and gentle light in his eyes.
"You don't need to be so polite in front of me. Don't always call yourself a 'slave'."
Concubine Xiao smiled and stopped the other party's overly humble attitude, then turned around and instructed Huang Li beside her, "Go and bring in some fresh fruit, especially lychees, which are the best in season now."
Thus, in such a relaxed, happy, warm and beautiful atmosphere, the communication between the two continued...
The oriole quickly brought a large plate of bright red lychees. The fruits were plump and bright, exuding an enticing aroma.
"These are all delicious delicacies specially shipped from Lingnan. Come and try them."
Concubine Xiao invited Wen Zhu in a friendly voice, with a smile on her face, and was obviously very enthusiastic.
Wen Zhu knew that these fruits sent from far away were extremely rare treasures and not something that ordinary people could eat. So although she was happy in her heart, she still politely smiled and declined, not wanting to trouble the other party too much.
However, what surprised Wen Zhu was that Concubine Xiao did not stop caring about her feelings. Instead, she peeled a lychee herself and gently put it to her mouth. The action was full of warmth and care.
Since Concubine Xiao has shown such sincerity, I cannot refuse this kindness again.
Thinking of this, Wen Zhu accepted this gentle gesture with a smile. In the following time, she tasted many lychees in succession with the enthusiastic encouragement of Concubine Xiao.
However, when he felt a little uncomfortable in his stomach, Wen Zhu had to find an excuse.
