Meanwhile over here.
The wing rooms in the back house.
After distributing the cakes, Chen Wei returned to the backyard with Aunt Zhao. Aunt Zhao's heart was still beating rapidly.
As soon as she sat down, Aunt Zhao looked at Chen Wei with excitement and said, "Wei Wei, you are so amazing. I really admire you."
"When you brought the cake to the old lady just now, I was so frightened that I broke out in a cold sweat."
"Madam Hou is extremely particular about etiquette and won't tolerate anything that goes beyond the rules. Yet, you brought a cake to her and asked for her blessing, forcing her to acknowledge the friendship between Master Xu and Wen Lan in front of the guests."
"Not only did she not scold you, she even helped you make a wish and blow out the candles. I can't believe it!"
A faint smile appeared on Chen Wei's face: "Even if she is unwilling in her heart, today is her birthday, she has to cooperate with me, unless she wants to find fault and ruin her birthday."
Aunt Zhao thought about it and after her excitement, she became a little worried about Chen Wei's current situation in the Marquis' Mansion.
Madam Hou was forced to "support the occasion" for the longevity banquet and opera.
He must be holding a grudge now, and once the banquet is over, he will definitely go find Chen Wei to hold him accountable.
Before, Chen Wei was protected by the Marquis in every possible way. Even though the Marquis's wife wanted to beat Chen Wei to death, she could only suppress her anger.
But now, the Marquis is no longer as desperate to protect Chen Wei as before, and the matter of changing the script has made the Marquis unhappy.
Although she knew that Chen Wei didn't want this world, she had no control over many things while in the Marquis' Mansion.
Chen Wei seemed to see through Aunt Zhao's worries. She patted her on the shoulder and said, "Relax."
"When I did this, I never thought about the consequences. I was only worried about one thing - that I wouldn't even have the chance to try."
"Today's advertisement was very successful. It made people remember the longevity cake. This is a good start."
After listening to Chen Wei's words, Aunt Zhao's anxiety was slightly reduced.
Just as she was about to speak, Xiaoman suddenly ran in hurriedly.
"girl!"
"Oh no! I saw Master Dong sneaking into the back garden with his servant."
Upon hearing the news, Chen Wei suddenly stood up and walked out with a slightly changed expression.
Aunt Zhao got up and chased after him.
Men from outside the family are usually entertained in the outer courtyard, and the back garden is where the female family members live. Although it is wrong for Mr. Dong to enter the back garden, as female family members, Chen Wei and she should not go out to meet him.
If other people in the Marquis' Mansion saw it, there would probably be a lot of rumors.
At this critical moment, the Marquis must be eager to find something to hold against Weiwei immediately, and then punish him and take responsibility for the bankruptcy of the shop.
therefore,
Aunt Zhao said worriedly, "Weiwei, Miss Lu is the daughter of the Prime Minister. This matter is of great importance. Should we inform Madam first?"
As Chen Wei walked, he said to Aunt Zhao:
"It's too late by the time we notify Qin Shuyu!"
"If I'm not mistaken, Miss Lu must be in the back garden."
"Even if nothing happens between the two of them, and they are alone together, Miss Lu will be condemned by thousands of people."
Aunt Zhao was a little hesitant. She had heard before that Miss Lu and Mr. Dong were interested in each other. Could it be that they had made an appointment to meet secretly?
However,
Seeing Chen Wei's anxious look, she suppressed the doubts in her heart.
The three of them came to the back garden and saw Master Dong holding Miss Lu tightly.
Miss Lu struggled desperately, but how could a frail woman like her break free from Mr. Dong?
During the tug, Miss Lu's clothes were pulled open a little, revealing her left shoulder.
"Mr. Dong, please let me go, let me go, please don't do this..." Miss Lu begged with tears. She could only beg the man in front of her to wake up in time.
At this moment, she thought of Chen Wei!
If she had Chen Wei's skills, perhaps she could break free from this man.
Just like the day she encountered the bandits, she hated herself so much for being so weak that she could only allow a man to flirt with her.
If her reputation was really ruined, no matter how much her parents doted on her, they would not be able to ignore the reputation of the Prime Minister's Mansion. At that time, she would only be able to prove her innocence by dying.
But even if she died, would the rumors disappear?
She knew it wouldn't happen, the rumor would continue...
Just when Miss Lu was in despair!
Suddenly,
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Chen Wei appear behind Master Dong like a ray of light.
Then!
Chen Wei suddenly grabbed Master Dong's hair, and when Master Dong turned around in pain to see who attacked him, he kicked him in the vitals.
