He's here to deliver something again.

This kind of thing has happened many times since she came to the capital.

After all, this is the Duke's Mansion! Du Liu and Qin Lianyue sighed as they looked at the gifts that filled up half of the room.

"Daughter, your good day has come!"

Qin Lianyue smiled and returned to her room. The maid Aqi came over and said, "Miss, I still haven't seen anyone today."

"Haven't seen him yet? Doesn't he ever go home?"

"I was at the side door, and my brother was at the main door, and they guarded for a whole day." Ah Qi thought to himself, he was almost freezing to death! "I saw all the men of the Qi family who were going to court and doing business. But I didn't see the fifth young master."

"Waste!" Qin Lianyue said angrily.

"…Maybe he's out on some business."

"Where's my aunt?"

"Mrs. Qi's car has been out twice."

"Forget it, don't go for now. Mother saw that you were not here today and asked about it again!" I must not let my mother know about this.

The Qin family has a small house in the capital, which is used by the clan members. If I marry from there to the Duke's Mansion, it would be a bit underwhelming.

So, at present, the Qin mother and daughter live in the empty house of their great-grandfather’s student.

The owner of the house was very kind to them and made their stay very comfortable.

The second son of the Jiang family was a very attentive person. He would come to see her on purpose, visit her on his way, and sometimes even twice a day.

This made Qin Lianyue very proud.

If she hadn't seen Wen Yu on the boat, she would have lived a life like this.

But she saw...

…

The servants were also reporting to Yuan.

"The eldest girl was a tenant in the small courtyard, and had only moved there for a year. She was not familiar with the neighbors and never interacted with them. Someone saw the men in the family going in and out of Lord Mo's house nearby every day. The two sons were studying. I didn't find out anything else, and I didn't dare to ask too much. Later, the eldest girl came out and went to a very high-end teahouse. I couldn't follow her in..."

"Go down! Follow me!" I want to see what this damn girl is doing. When Wen Yu went back, Mrs. Wen called her over.

"grandmother!"

"Girl, what do you do all day?"

"After the New Year, we're going to start a big business! My granddaughter has to look around!" Wen Yu said half-truthfully.

"What a big deal! Madam Qi sent a letter saying that the Fifth Master will send New Year's gifts in a few days!"

"Is this the etiquette?" Wen Yu had just met the person and was not surprised.

Old Madam Wen saw Wen Yu's calm look and really couldn't understand this girl. If it were the other girls, they would have been nervous when they heard the news! "My granddaughter has to go out tomorrow! Whatever grandma wants to eat, I'll buy it for you!"

"I don't want anything! You should stop going out every day!" The old lady was a little anxious. "In the past two days, we have had guests coming to our house. I'm afraid many people have heard about your marriage. They want to see you, but you're not here. They don't know you're a busy person, and they think we're making fun of you!" Old Mrs. Wen complained.

"Yes!" Wen Yu agreed with a smile, but she didn't take it to heart at all! ...

The next day, after washing and dressing, we set off again.

Nanny Cui was waiting at the shop door.

As soon as Wen Yu got out of the car, Aunt Cui came to greet her with a smile on her face: "Miss Wen!"

"Madame Cui. Thank you for waiting for so long."

"Miss Wen, you are too polite. Madam has just arrived and is waiting inside!"

"Is Yuanyuan here?"

"Miss Yuanyuan didn't come. The little rabbit is sick..."

"Ah?! What happened?"

"She fed the rabbit too much. The rabbit doesn't know when to be full and it's getting bloated. Move it out for two days and it will be fine after it's been hungry."

"Yuanyuan is very anxious, right?"

"Isn't it?! The little turtle won't eat anymore, it's so anxious." The two of them went upstairs.

The door of one of the living rooms was open, and Mrs. Qi was sitting there drinking tea.

"Madam!" Wen Yu stepped forward and saluted.

When Mrs. Qi saw Wen Yu, she was dressed in light purple and had a bright smile, which was really pleasing to the eye.

Wen Yu came over, her little face blushing.

"Are you used to it now that you're in the capital?"

"I'm used to it."

"Hurry up and sit down. I'm worried you might be cold!"

"It's warm in the house. It's almost New Year, so it's not that cold anymore."

"Isn't it? When spring comes, it will be warm all of a sudden."

"Is my lady all right?"

"I'm fine. It's just that Xiaowu hasn't been home these days. I don't know what he's busy with. Otherwise I would have dragged him here!"

Wen Yu's inner thoughts: I saw it. "As a man, business is the most important!"

This made Mrs. Qi even more satisfied: Look, how sensible this girl is? She is nothing like Mrs. Xu: She is always wondering what Qi Xiao did when he went out, why he took so long, who did he go with, and why he didn't even take me out... She keeps pestering him!

"Are your grandmother and father all right?"

"Grandmother is in good health. She is more energetic than us sisters on the way to the capital. I heard that father's work is going well."

"That's good."

"I thought Yuanyuan would come today too! Zhuzhu has been asking her."

"I took Yuanyuan out for such a long time, her mother missed her so much, the mother and daughter were always sticking together!"

"Ma'am, have you told Yuanyuan's parents about her?"

Cui's face was filled with sorrow: "I told Yuanyuan's father. Her father said, don't tell her mother yet! Yuanyuan's mother is known as the county lady. She is cheerful and arrogant.

If she knew, she wouldn't blame me, but how could she live with such a big mistake? Especially since she couldn't catch the culprit. "

Wen Yu thought for a moment and said, "At that time, I was worried that this incident would be bad for Yuanyuan if it got out, so I coaxed her and said that she fell down while chasing a rabbit. But Yuanyuan didn't know the seriousness of the matter. She refused to admit it and even argued with me.

Later, she really liked the little rabbit, so she compromised. "You, have you discussed this with your brother? What would the county lady think if she knew about this through Yuanyuan or others in the future?"

"I see... I really haven't thought about it. Because later... Yuanyuan never mentioned it again. But you're right: if Yuanyuan remembers it one day, or someone leads her to say it, my sister-in-law will misunderstand that we are deceiving her, and that will be troublesome."

"Please discuss this with your brother. What Wen Yu said may not be correct."

"Good girl, you are very thoughtful." Madam Qi patted her hands, "This New Year, the Wen and Qi families cannot meet each other. I have arranged for Xiaowu to go to the Wen family to deliver New Year's goods. Xiaowu's grandfather, as well as his uncle and aunt, have heard Yuanyuan talk about you a lot. They all want to see you very much. During the New Year, come to the Cui family to visit the Wen family!"

Wen Yu was a little embarrassed: "Master Qi Wu is so outstanding, the elders of the Cui family must like him very much. Will they dislike Wen Yu?"

"How could it be!? They like you so much! Xiaowu used to go to school outside, and when he returned to the capital, he also stayed at Cui's house most of the time. He practiced martial arts with several cousins, and they have a deep relationship!"

"Then you have to be Wen Yu's backbone!"

Mrs. Qi was happy to hear Wen Yu speak: "Although you are a daughter of a civil official, you have a straightforward personality! The Cui family will definitely like you!" She felt more and more that the failure of the marriage with the Qin family was a favor from God to her.

How could that pretentious Qin Lianyue compare to the girl in front of me?

The snob Du Liuer, when he arrived in the capital, didn't dare to come to the Qi family, and even sent gifts to the Cui family! My sister-in-law rejected it directly! How shameless! "I saw in the letter that you bought a house in the capital?"

"Yes, it's in Fangjing Hutong. Madam, why don't you go take a look later? Currently, Yan Zhu and Lan Zhou, as well as the master I hired and several embroiderers, are living there. Yan Zhu is cooking at home, and her cooking is delicious. Madam, why don't you go and try some?"

"Okay. Let's go after we finish watching!"

"I have some ideas about this shop, and I would like to ask Madam to listen to them."

"Okay! Come, I'll tell you about it."

"Why!"

Madam Qi stood up, took Wen Yu's hand, and pointed at her and said, "These two shops are my dowry."

"Madam's family is so generous! Wen Yu came here to ask around, and found out that everyone here doesn't know about this place!" Wen Yu looked at the high roof, the lights hanging on it, and the bright room...

Madam Qi smiled so hard that her wrinkles showed. "My family bought this house a long time ago. We bought the land and built it ourselves, using good materials and labor. At that time, this area was not so prosperous, so the price was not bad. There are two houses on each side of the door, which belong to my brothers."

"They were all rented out, and my family had no time to work. The boss of my two sets did very well and made a lot of money. He also bought a shop for himself."

Madam Qi took Wen Yu and looked carefully upstairs, downstairs and in the backyard.

Wen Yu was very careful and secretly applied Master Qing's design to her design. She found that most of the design was to her liking. Only a few parts needed to be adjusted...

"Last time, Madam Qi's men took Master Qing to look at it. Master Qing had a lot of ideas and sorted them out. But Wen Yu has never done such a big thing after all. Moreover, I am particularly convinced of Madam's vision. I would like to ask you to take a closer look and make the final decision later!"

"My vision is indeed good..." Mrs. Qi said proudly.

The two of them chuckled...
