Chapter 269: From Now On, There Is No More Prince Jing’s Mansion
When Juanjuan saw the bird, he woke up from his sleepiness, jumped out of bed immediately, and ran to the window with his bare feet.
"Little bird."
When Si Jinchen saw her running towards him barefoot, he frowned slightly, walked to the bed and took her little slippers.
He squatted down, gently lifted up her curly little feet, wiped her not-so-dirty little feet with his little hands, and put slippers on her.
Juanjuan looked down and saw Si Jinchen had put on her slippers: "Thank you, brother."
"You must wear good shoes. Although it is not as cold as winter now, you will still catch a cold." Si Jinchen said and stood beside her.
"Okay!" Juanjuan nodded obediently.
The little bird tilted its head and jumped on the windowsill, telling Juanjuan all the news it had heard.
Juanjuan repeated it to Si Jinchen, mainly because she couldn't remember too many things.
She also ran to find her small bag and grabbed a handful of delicious millet for the bird: "Thank you, little bird."
"Chirp chirp. You're welcome. I'll keep an eye on it for you and tell you when there's any news." The bird burped as it flew away.
He let his flying body fall down a bit, and then quickly flapped his wings to stabilize his body and flew away.
Si Jinchen looked at the bird's action and was filled with questions: "Juanjuan, what happened to the bird just now? Is it injured?"
"It's full." Juanjuan turned and said to him.
"Are you full?" Si Jinchen was confused. This time he really didn't know what it meant.
But he quickly adjusted his attitude and tiptoed to close the window: "Let's get dressed and go find grandma."
He had to quickly tell Mrs. Si the news that Xiaoniao had found out, and he couldn't let his aunt succeed.
Juanjuan nodded, picked up the clothes and put them on. Although she was a little slow, she was able to put them on by herself. However, Si Jinchen still needed to help her button up.
Old Madam Si looked up at the wall clock, thinking that the two children should be waking up soon, so she put down the book in her hand and prepared to go and take a look.
As soon as I walked out of the living room, I saw two children coming down the stairs: "Why are you up so early?"
"Grandma, we have something to tell you." Si Jinchen pulled Juanjuan to her side, took her hand and walked towards the living room.
Madam Si looked at the seriousness on his little face and noticed something was wrong: "Something happened."
"Grandma, it was the bird that brought the news to Juanjuan." Si Jinchen told her the complete news he had heard.
"So that's how it is. Grandma knows about it. We're going to help out on the farmland outside the city tomorrow, and we've already asked for leave from the two teachers."
"They also hope that you can go out for exercise, so tomorrow you three little ones will have to go to the fields to work." Old Madam Si smiled and touched their little heads.
"Juanjuan loves to help the most." Juanjuan smiled happily.
Madam Si saw that she didn't tie up her long hair today, but just pinned it with a hairband. Her soft black hair curled into the shape of a cloud at the end.
"Go play with Songsongruanruan and the others. Grandma has to pack some changes of clothes for you, otherwise you won't have anything to change into tomorrow if they get dirty."
Si Jinchen took Juanjuan to play with Songsong and Ruanruan.
"Housekeeper." Old Madam Si spoke only after seeing the two children go to play in the yard.
"Madam." The butler stood aside respectfully.
"Give everyone in the family a day off tomorrow. No one should stay at home." Mrs. Si ordered.
"What about the doorman?" Although the butler didn't know what happened, he didn't question it.
Madam Si changed her tone, "They're off this afternoon and won't be back until tomorrow night. They have nowhere to go, so let them stay at the inn for the night and give them some money."
"Also, call Ah Ming and ask them to come back early."
"Yes, I'll arrange it now." The housekeeper hurried to make arrangements, asking them to leave separately so as not to attract too much attention.
Although the people at home didn't know what was going on, they still followed the housekeeper's instructions.
"Butler, has something happened?" Aunt Wu looked at him worriedly.
"I don't think the old lady looks like anything has happened. Maybe she doesn't want to see some old people coming to her house." The housekeeper didn't say it explicitly.
Wu Ma and the others are all elders in the family, so how could they not know who he was talking about? They all looked unfriendly.
"We understand. Let's go out for a walk. We don't have much free time on weekdays, but now it's a rare holiday."
Bailing received a call telling her not to come back tonight and to stay in the store for the night.
Although she didn't understand, she believed that the housekeeper's arrangement must be useful.
There is no need to rush to close the store today, and we can still sell more cosmetics.
When Si Ming and the others came back, they found that the servants were gone from the house, and Old Madam Si had packed up some things.
"Mom, what's going on?"
"Let's talk about it later when Xiaojiu and the others come back." Madam Si asked him to sit down first.
As soon as Siming sat down, two little guys ran over and hugged his arms, one on the left and one on the right.
“Dad!”
"Are you bored at home today?" Siming looked at the two children with a smile.
"It's not boring!" Si Jinchen said, then let go of his arm, ran back to the room and took out a book.
"Dad, this is the picture you asked me to find for you before." He said and turned a page in the book.
Siming looked at the picture in the book, which really looked a bit like the boat drawn by the workers in the raincoat factory, except that it was all in foreign words, and he didn't understand what was written on it.
He flipped through the rest of the book, which looked like a military book.
Should I hire foreigners to teach my two children?
Before I could think too much about this idea, a voice came from the door.
"What's going on? Why are all the servants away?" Miao Jiu's puzzled voice came in.
Si Tian was also confused. Seeing some boxes in the living room, he asked, "Mom, what's going on?"
"Now that you are all back, I will tell you what happened." Old Madam Si repeated what Si Jinchen said.
"Is this guy courting death?" Miao Jiu sneered.
Si Ning's expression wasn't very good either: "In order to get close to us, he really used every possible method."
"I have to say, it's quite cruel." Si Tian raised his eyebrows slightly.
"I don't think he is cruel, but more like a madman. Don't forget how Prince Jing got addicted to opium." Siming had someone investigate when his father-in-law was addicted to opium.
After investigation, it was found that it was Jing Xiuxiu's trap that made him addicted to opium step by step.
She used opium to control Prince Jing and the entire Prince Jing's Mansion.
However, she did not have Wanru's means and abilities. After only two years in her hands, the Prince Jing's Mansion had lost its former glory, and in the end, the entire palace was defeated.
From then on, there was no more Prince Jing's Palace.
