Besides, on Madam Huo's side, she had originally been the main wife of the Duke of Guo's estate, but after marrying the Duke of Guo for a few years, her husband couldn't fall for it.
Seeing that her concubines were about to be bullied by her, and that she had a small promotional note in her hands today, he decided to give it a try.
”Yo, big sister is back.”
Just as he entered the mansion, his concubine, who was in the midst of gaining momentum, walked up to him with a smile while twisting her willow waist.
Madam Huo did not wish to talk to her any longer and left on her own.
”Sister, please wait a moment. Today, I saw that you looked radiant and extraordinary. Your skin is clear and moist, white and rosy, like a delicate flower.”
Madam Huo's expression did not change, but her heart felt a lot more comfortable.
”Elder sister, which servant did you make these nails?” ”With such a clever trick, there's even something stuck on top. It's quite pretty.”
The wet nurse avoided the figure of her concubine and supported Madam Huo as she left.
The woman who was left behind revealed a mocking expression, and her smile instantly disappeared, ”Go and find out where she went today? Especially since who was the one who made that person, Dan Kou? He's so special! ”
One of the maidservants at the side immediately flattered her. ”My wife, don't worry. The Duke of Guo has always doted on you the most. No matter how much the main wife torments you, it's all in vain.”
”She wants to hook up with the Duke of Guo just based on her dead fish appearance?” As a man, I don't know about the dirty stuff on the bed. No one would want to see her like this. ”
That night, however, the wet nurse coaxed the Countess into going to the Crown Prince on the grounds that she was having a headache and didn't feel well.
What was unexpected was that the duke, who hadn't stayed in Madam Huo's room for months, had stayed that night.
The maid guarding the door was still able to hear the sounds of activity coming from the room in the middle of the night. The joyous moans lingered on until dawn before gradually fading away.
Because she had agreed to Aunt Bai's invitation yesterday, Su Zhi didn't go to Flower Mansion the next day.
Aunt Bai had gotten up early in the morning and started busying herself with the food. Su Zhi was sorry, but she insisted on helping out, despite Uncle Liu's obstruction.
When she was busy in the kitchen, Aunt Bai couldn't help but lecture her, ”Little Su, if Aunt didn't say anything about you, you should still dress up. Look at you, you really don't look like a young lady.”
Su Zhi scratched her head and said with an embarrassed smile, ”There's so much work to do today, how could I have the time to do that?”
Aunt Bai nodded, and continued: ”Luckily that Liu family member is a family member, he said that he only wants to find a reliable woman. It doesn't matter if it's good or not, the two of you are just right for it. ”
Aunt Bai was just teasing Su Zhi when Uncle Liu, who was standing outside, stuck his head in. ”My nephew is here. Aunt, bring Little Su out to meet him.”
”Yo, so fast.”
Aunt Bai dried her hands and immediately walked to the front hall with Su Zhi in tow.
”Good child, you're here. Quick, let Aunt see!”
Before he even reached the main hall, Aunt Bai already started getting friendly. She entered the room and pulled a young and robust man along, feeling a wave of coldness and asking for his warmth.
Su Zhi followed behind, feeling somewhat nervous.
She roughly glanced at the man that was being pulled by Aunt Bai and saw that he was about the same age as Xiao Qian.
Just as Uncle Liu had said, he was tall, strong, and powerful. His skin was somewhat dark, but his facial features were handsome. When he smiled, his dimples and canine teeth made him seem like an idiot.
Sunlight, spirit, like a warm sun, loyal and good-natured.
This was Su Zhi's first impression of a man.
”Come come come, let me introduce you.” ”This is the nephew I mentioned, his name is Liu Yuan.”
The two of them looked at each other and smiled. Liu Yuan immediately opened his eyes as a hint of red flashed across his dark face.
”This is Little Su, the one my aunt mentioned to you before. She opened her own store and is probably doing business!”
Liu Yuan took a step forward and bowed, ”It's our first time meeting. I've already made Little Su watch a joke.”
He then picked up a few wrapped up items from the tea table and handed them to Su Zhi. ”A mere gift is not worthy of respect.”
And even prepared a gift? Su Zhi felt somewhat sorry. She hadn't prepared anything.
”You said that for a child like you, etiquette is too considerate. Why did you bring such a thing when you just came?”
Only then did Su Zhi see that there were several items inside the room, as well as two baskets of white noodles and a basket of eggs.
Although the items were not valuable, they were brought here by someone who had gone through a lot of trouble.
”Many thanks for Young Master Liu's gift, but I, I, didn't prepare anything …”
Liu Yuan looked at her with an innocent smile, ”It's fine, it's fine. It's my daughter's house. How could she be so polite the first time we meet? It's unreasonable.” If it's a pickled product, the gains will not make up for the losses. ”
”Hahaha, you brat.”
Uncle Liu and Aunt Bai laughed up and down, scolding Liu Yuan for his glib.
Having said that, Su Zhi still felt a little uneasy. She casually took out the silver hairpin from her bun and handed it to him, ”It's not worth much money. Consider it a gift in return. I can't just take these things for nothing.”
