Wen Zhu's nose felt sore, and when she looked up, her eyes were already filled with tears: "Mother, do you think I have any evil intentions? This time, my daughter came back, and she doesn't want to recognize her ancestors. I know I grew up in the countryside and can't compare to my sister. I have been pampered by you since I was a child, and I am a perfect match for my brother-in-law. We are simply a match made in heaven..."
As he spoke, a tear just happened to slide down his cheek. Wen Zhu reached out and wiped it away, then continued, "Don't worry, mother. I will never have any bad intentions."
After hearing this, Mrs. Wen's expression softened a lot. She even stood up and walked to Wen Zhu, holding her hand: "My child is so sensible, it really makes my mother distressed... I will definitely treat you well in the future."
If Wen Zhu really doesn't want to return to his ancestral home, then perhaps he really doesn't have any ambitions.
At this time, Nanny Zhou hurried forward to remind her, "Madam, it's getting late. The young master and young lady are probably on their way. Please get ready."
Madam Wen said regretfully, "Well, Zhu'er, go sit in the back for a while and leave Hongyu here. You've never ordered around servants before, so mother will explain the rules to you."
Wen Zhu nodded, looked at Mrs. Wen reluctantly, then turned and left.
As the door closed, Mrs. Wen's expression instantly turned cold: "Was she telling the truth just now?"
Thinking of the banknotes she had received earlier, Hongyu nodded quickly: "It is indeed true."
After receiving a satisfactory answer, Madam Wen asked Madam Zhou to give Hongyu forty taels of silver: "Help me keep a close eye on her!"
Hongyu knelt on the ground with her forehead pressed against the ground: "Yes!"
"stand up."
Hongyu went out with the silver in her pocket, and she couldn't hide the smile on her face.
As soon as he walked out, he heard Wen Zhu's faint voice: "You look so happy. Madam must have given you a lot of benefits, right?"
Hongyu's face changed instantly, and she quickly took out the silver note and handed it to Wen Zhu.
Wen Zhu glanced at it but didn't take it: "I told you a long time ago that you can take whatever you want from outside, as long as you know who your master is."
Hongyu quickly said, "Yes."
Wen Zhu nodded.
It's not easy to go out, and she also wants to go out for a walk.
Let Hongyu lead the way, and the maids did not stop them. The master and servant went out smoothly and strolled on the street.
While the two were strolling on the street, Fu Yu and Wen Chan arrived at the door of the Wen family with generous gifts.
Lord and Madam Wen personally greeted them outside and welcomed them into the house warmly.
After entering the door, Lord Wen and Fu Yu were sitting in the front hall chatting, while Madam Wen accompanied Wen Chan to the inner room.
As soon as she sat down, she saw Wen Chan's unhappy face. Madam Wen was slightly startled: "What's wrong? Is the prince not well?"
Wen Chan shook her head: "It's Wen Zhu!"
Wen Chan couldn't stop talking as soon as she started: "Mother, you don't know how much Wen Zhu... My mother-in-law reminded me to be more restrained so as not to affect my husband's future. It's really... I'm so ashamed!"
Mrs. Wen was slightly surprised: "Is there such a thing?"
"That's right," Wen Chan said with an annoyed look on her face. "Although the prince doesn't know the truth, but seeing the way he defended Wen Zhu when he spoke, I felt... very uncomfortable. I always felt that he was protecting her."
Madam Wen didn't know what to say, so she could only comfort him: "However, I don't think Wen Zhu has any other intentions, so you can use him without worry. Even if there are any unpleasantness, you must remember that Wen Zhu is helping you consolidate your position in the Marquis' Mansion, which will ultimately benefit you."
Wen Chan pursed her lips: "Yes."
Madam Wen nodded and continued, "I know you don't like Wen Zhu, but now that she's useful, you should take good care of her. Let her bear a child for you sooner, and you'll be able to resolve this worry sooner."
Wen Chan understood what Madam Wen meant. Although she was a little reluctant, she still said, "Don't worry, mother. I know what to do."
Seeing this, Madam Wen reassured her again: "Don't worry, although there is no news from the doctor yet, your father and I have been working hard for you. I think it should be soon."
After hearing this, Wen Chan's expression softened a bit: "Father and Mother have taken so much trouble for me, I really don't know how to repay them."
Madam Wen looked at her with a reproachful look: "Silly girl, I'm your mother, how can you be so distant with me?"
The displeasure on Wen Chan's face disappeared, and she took Madam Wen's arm and acted coquettishly.
The Wen family was bustling all day that day. Wen Zhu and Hong Yu took a walk outside, bought a lot of skin care creams and underwear, and then returned to the Marquis' Mansion early.
Entering the mansion from the side door, I was greeted by a familiar maid.
The maid took them back to Liuyun Garden with an expressionless face and left.
Looking at her back, Hongyu muttered, "This person is very strange..."
Since this maid knows Hongyu, she was probably arranged here by Madam Wen.
But she usually doesn't talk to Hongyu and seems very withdrawn.
As soon as the door closed, Wen Zhu handed her a few pieces of silver: "She is in charge of the back corner door. When you have time, go drink with her more often. It will be much more convenient to go in and out after you get to know her well."
Hongyu quickly took the silver.
Hongyu, who had just received silver from Mrs. Wen, didn't care about the change in front of her at all.
Seeing that it was almost time for dinner, he said, "Girl, I'll go get you dinner for tonight, and then I'll go find her for a drink."
"Don't bother." Wen Zhu said, "Just go directly."
After returning home in her previous life, she ate the same meal as Wen Chan, and it is likely that it will not change in this life.
The only difference this time was that she didn't dare to resist in her previous life, but this time...
She is pretending.
Hongyu felt relieved after hearing this. She bowed and left the room.
As expected, not long after, the exquisite food was delivered to Wen Zhu.
The one who brought the meal was Pearl.
Zhenzhu's expression was always ugly when she treated Wen Zhu, and her eyes were still full of disgust.
"The young lady was kind enough to let you eat the same meal. By the way, tidy yourself up for the evening."
Pearl left after saying this, looking as if she would get impatient if she stayed any longer.
But Wen Zhu didn't take her to heart at all. He ate happily, went to the bathroom to take a shower after dinner, and waited for the night to come.
Soon, the small door of the wing was opened.
As soon as he entered the room, Wen Zhu stood under Wen Chan's scrutinizing gaze.
"Sister, remember, this is the Marquis' Mansion, not some remote place in the countryside. You should be more careful when doing things."
Wen Zhu bit her lip and responded, "Yes."
Hearing her call herself "Young Madam" instead of "sister" like the servants did, Wen Chan felt a sense of superiority in her heart.
Wen Chan originally wanted to criticize him a few more times, but seeing how obedient he was, she finally chose to be tolerant and waved him off: "Okay, go and do your thing."
Fu Yu is taking a shower and may come back someday.
Wen Zhu nodded and turned to go into the main house.
Looking at the slowly closing door, Wen Chan smiled slightly and thought to herself, "Letting her starve for a few days really worked. I'll have to remind her from time to time in the future."
