The carriage slowly stopped in front of the gate of Shen's house. Shen Zhao jumped out of the carriage, kicked away the servant who had just wanted to use him as a human ladder, and personally lifted the curtain.
Bai Zhirou, who was soaked, poked her head out from inside and her eyes fell on the umbrella handle stretched out in front of her.
Bai Zhirou was puzzled, "What does this mean?"
"Men and women should not touch each other. This is for the good of both of us." Shen Zhao said righteously.
Bai Zhirou remained silent, grabbed the umbrella handle and got off the carriage.
She felt that Mr. Shen's brain didn't seem very good. "Tongzi, if he is like this, will the IQ of the child he gives birth to really be okay?"
"It's okay, host. Just knock on his head. If the sound is nice, it's a good sign." said the fertility system.
Bai Zhirou actually raised her fist and hit him on the back of the head, making a dull sound.
"It doesn't necessarily sound that good." Bai Zhirou was speechless.
"You are so ungrateful! I saved you in this heavy rain, and you hit me on the head! It's totally unreasonable!" Shen Zhao was angry. Is it so easy for a man to be touched on the head?
He left angrily and quickly, leaving Bai Zhirou behind, completely losing his previous composure.
The Duke of Zhenguo and his wife had heard that Chen Zhao had brought back a strange woman, and they rushed over in anger.
The servants brought Bai Zhirou and Ming Cui to the flower hall, where the Duke of Zhenguo and his wife were already waiting.
Guo had a preconceived notion that the woman who came back with Chen Zhao must not be from a good family.
But when she saw Bai Zhirou standing there pretty, she swallowed the words she wanted to scold her.
"Oh, how come you are so wet!" Guo exclaimed and gave the Duke of Zhenguo a look, who turned away with an unnatural expression.
Guo was busy and asked the servants to take Bai Zhirou to the side room to change into clothes that Shen Ruyi had never worn.
After Bai Zhirou and Ming Cui had changed their clothes, he returned to the flower hall.
Bai Zhirou was so thin and pale that she couldn't support the clothes she was wearing.
But his eyes are clear and bright, and he is a child with a pure heart.
The servant brought ginger tea, and Guo started chatting with Bai Zhirou again. When she learned that she was Prince Rong's biological daughter, who had been living outside for fourteen years and had just returned to the capital today, she was extremely shocked.
Guo and the Duke of Zhenguo looked at each other and remembered that this was indeed the case.
They had formed an alliance with the Rong Wang Mansion and had exchanged engagement letters some time ago, and were waiting for their two children to get married.
But now a biological daughter suddenly appears. What will happen to the marriage between the two families?
They don't want a fake daughter of Prince Rong!
They have to demand an explanation from Prince Rong’s Mansion!
“Thank you, Madam, for the gift of clothes. My daughter just bumped into Master Shen. When he saw me and the maid were wet in the rain, he brought my daughter back.”
"Mr. Chen is such a good man." Guo was delighted in her heart, but her face was very reserved.
It was the first time that a little girl praised her disappointing son so directly.
"Let's go, I'll take you out." After changing his clothes, Shen Zhao strode over.
He saw the two of them at a glance, and since they had changed their clothes, there was nothing wrong with it.
He looked a bit lazy, with water still dripping from the ends of his hair, and a few water stains on his clothes, casting a dark shadow, but it did not make people feel that he was untidy.
"I was just saying that you are so clumsy when doing things." Guo said angrily.
"You rascal, you just brought a girl home. If this gets out, how many rumors will it cause?" The Duke of Zhenguo said with a stern face, accusing Shen Zhao.
Bai Zhirou drank tea quietly, looking at the Duke of Zhenguo and his wife in front of her.
"Mom and Dad, it's almost time, let's send her back." Chen Zhao was impatient to listen to the nagging, so he straightened his clothes and stood up.
Bai Zhirou also stood up and said, "I'll wash these two sets of clothes when I get home and send them back. I'm grateful for your kindness today."
She bowed respectfully to the Duke of Zhenguo and Guo, with standard posture and graceful figure, just like a lady from a noble family.
These were all things Bai Zhirou had learned privately.
The original owner was raised in a small landlord's family in the south of the Yangtze River since childhood, and he was not very strict with etiquette and laws.
But if you don’t learn some etiquette when you get to the capital, you will definitely be laughed at!
Shen Zhao walked in front, with Bai Zhirou and Ming Cui following behind.
"Thank you for today." Bai Zhirou said, looking at his back.
"You're a girl, don't run away when there's a quarrel. It's not safe. If it weren't for my kindness, you would have been kidnapped right now without even knowing it."
Shen Zhao put his hands on his hips and boasted about himself.
"You're talking nonsense. The capital is a good place. How could something like this happen?" Bai Zhirou couldn't stand him like this.
"Tsk, why don't you believe me? Forget it, I won't bother with you."
"By the way, why did you lie today? You and I don't even know each other." Chen Zhao stopped and looked at her steadily.
Bai Zhirou also stopped and looked at him boldly, "I have my own difficulties. Master Shen is not worldly, so he naturally doesn't understand. If I don't get involved with you, these dogs will definitely humiliate me. Master Shen is kind-hearted, can you lend a helping hand to me?"
"If I remember correctly, this is the first time we met. Is there anything I can help you with?" Shen Zhao scratched his ear.
"Mr. Chen has always been careless about the trivial matters when it comes to playing around in the world, so I will invite Mr. Chen to watch a fun event." Bai Zhirou smiled gently.
She was clearly smiling, but in Shen Zhao's eyes, she seemed to be hiding a dagger behind her smile, and he shuddered subconsciously.
This little girl is not as innocent as she looks, her appearance is so deceptive!
Ming Cui lowered the curtains and praised Shen Zhao sincerely.
Bai Zhirou also felt that Chen Zhao's character was precious.
The rain had stopped by now, and the carriage seemed very out of place on the quiet street.
"When we get home, tell the truth. There's no such thing as a broken wall. If they want to know what I did tonight, they'll definitely find out." This isn't something shameful, so there's nothing wrong with speaking out. Ming Cui nodded.
When she returned home, she thought there would be someone waiting to interrogate her, but she thought too much. At most, a servant would stay and go to each room to inform them when she came back, and then the matter would be over.
Bai Zhirou laughed angrily. How unpopular was she?
It only took her a few seconds to adjust her mindset.
The Rong Wang Mansion is wealthy and powerful, but the people are cold and indifferent. Bai Zhirou really feels sorry for the original owner. She returned home after going through so much trouble, but she didn't expect that no one likes her!
Mingcui was about to cry again, but Bai Zhirou took her hand and took her back to her own yard.
The small courtyard was pitch black, as if telling the world that unimportant people lived in it.
Mingcui didn't want to make Bai Zhirou sad, so she quickly stepped forward to darken the room and light the lamp, and the room became bright.
