Chapter 29 Outperforming others
The candlelight swayed slightly, and Yao Hua stood in front of the bed and shyly helped Gu Changheng take off his clothes, calling out delicately, "Second Master..."
She was so obedient and obedient that Gu Changheng couldn't help but feel embarrassed.
But she was thinking about Yun Suiwan, but she didn't take the initiative to get close to Yao Hua.
"I have made my position clear to you. I am keeping you here just for my wife's sake. You'd better not have any inappropriate thoughts."
I thought Yao Hua would cry and complain, but after hearing what she said, she actually moved a quilt to the ground, "Second Master, please don't worry, I understand."
She just made a bunk on the floor and fell asleep.
Gu Changheng?
The unexpected success made Gu Changheng feel empty in his heart. He didn't even have a chance to finish what he wanted to say.
He was a little depressed and turned over and fell asleep.
Early in the morning, Zhao Mingruo took Ah Fu out to the newly purchased house.
Shen Qingshan used to live with Zhao Mingruo in the Hou Mansion, but after he got a new mansion and started business, he traveled between places.
As soon as their master and servant arrived, a leading young man in the courtyard came forward and said, "He Jiang, the little man, was promoted by Mr. Shen as the manager of this place. I have met Madam."
"Mr. Shen just left to inspect the East Street shop. If you need it, I will send someone to look for him right now."
"No."
Zhao Mingruo looked around and saw the deft movements of the guys, "I'm here to ask for a few people. Come back with me to buy some charcoal."
He Jiang immediately trotted over and called over several strong men who were working.
"Madam, these guys work neatly, and the leader is called Wan Chen."
Zhao Mingruo nodded, "Okay."
However, her eyes were attracted by the two identical girls who had just come out of the house.
"Are those two hired workers or bought back?"
He Jiang took a look and said, "Madam Hui, Mr. Shen bought her from the government's human market. The two girls are twins. The elder sister Iris and the younger sister Luwei came from the palace of the former sinner Wei Wang."
Zhao Mingruo stared deeply.
It was rumored that the King of Wei was lustful and liked to play with prostitutes and young girls. Dozens of corpses were carried out of the house every month. Later, his house was confiscated and executed. The female retainers in his house comforted the army, and other slaves were taken into custody by the government. People sell it in the market.
Seeing that the two sisters were only in their teens, but their eyes were extremely mature and their hands and feet were very agile, Zhao Mingruo couldn't help but like them and said, "Let them come over."
He Jiang hurriedly went to call someone, and after some explanations, Iris and Lu Wei came over to Zhao Mingruo to say hello, "I've met the second lady."
"How old are you two, and what are your special skills?"
Lu Wei returned, "Madam, my servant Lu Wei, and my sister Yi Li are twins. I am sixteen this year. My sister knows a bit about boxing and kicking, and I know a little bit about medicine. I am willing to serve Madam."
Zhao Mingruo only felt happy. It was an unexpected surprise that two little girls who looked weak and weak could have such great abilities.
"Okay, this is Ah Fu, you can call her sister."
"Let's go."
Several people got on the carriage and quickly went to the firewood store.
Zhao Mingruo told Wan Chen, "You go and buy charcoal firewood first. Whether it is silver bone charcoal, gray flower charcoal or stove charcoal, each costs three thousand kilograms. Order them separately and wait until I come back to pay."
"Be nice, don't worry about the money, as long as you are not taken advantage of."
Wan Chen roughly figured out what Zhao Mingruo meant, "I understand."
Zhao Mingruo herself took her two maids, Liuli and Lu Wei, to her own garment shop in the next street to measure and cut clothes.
Iris and Lu Wei were a little embarrassed, "Madam, we have clothes to wear..."
To be able to escape from the dire straits of Prince Wei's Mansion, follow the master innocently, and rely on their own strength and ability to do things was a life they had never dared to imagine before.
How dare you accept preferential treatment from your master for no reason?
Zhao Mingruo knew that they were sensitive in their hearts and did not dare to trust others easily. He just said in a normal tone, "Although spring has begun, the weather is still a bit cold. Seeing that you are wearing thin clothes, it will not be good if you catch a cold and get over the illness."
"Order some suitable clothes to keep warm from the cold. Take good care of yourself so that you can do more work in the future."
After hearing Zhao Mingruo's explanation, the two sisters did not refuse.
Two guys measure.
Zhao Mingruo and Ah Fu were waiting aside.
A laugh outside the door attracted the attention of several people, and Zhao Mingruo's face turned cold.
"Hey, what a coincidence today. Isn't this my eldest sister? Why did you see her here?"
I saw a girl about sixteen or seventeen years old wearing a pink gauze shirt, walking towards the crowd with a smile.
She has a swallowtail-shaped hairpin hanging down her head, beautiful eyebrows and phoenix eyes, jade cheeks and cherry lips, and her face is extremely beautiful and delicate.
Looking carefully, the woman's eyebrows and eyes actually bear a vague resemblance to Zhao Mingruo.
"Why, the eldest sister is married, so she no longer recognizes people from the Duke's Palace? I am your favorite sister?" Zhao Minglian had a smile on his lips, his eyes were lively, but there was a hint of provocation and pride.
.
The second young lady of the Changning Palace and the half-sister of Zhao Mingruo.
Zhao Mingruo's eyes quickly turned cold, and she smiled slightly and said, "I know the people in the Duke's Mansion at all times, but the dogs in the Duke's Mansion, I'm sorry, there are too many, I forgot
It doesn’t matter what the name is.”
Ah Fu couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Zhao Mingruo, who had just laughed at Yan Yan, suddenly became cold and said with a sinister look, "Zhao Mingruo, it seems that you have suffered less in the Duke's Mansion and are not impressed enough, so you dare to talk back?"
Zhao Mingruo raised his eyes, the corners of his brows and eyes were full of innocence, "I remembered, it turned out to be the second sister, what's wrong? Her face is twisted like this? Is she scared to death?"
Zhao Minglian was so angry that he wanted to take action.
The middle-aged woman who walked slowly outside the door scolded her softly, "Sister Lian, didn't my mother teach you not to get angry with irrelevant people outside and lose your sense of proportion? It will damage the reputation of the Duke's palace.
"
This is Zhao Mingruo's mother, Fang Rong, the present wife of the Duke's Mansion. She actually looks more like Zhao Mingruo, a full five or six points.
After hearing that his mother had hurt Zhao Mingruo openly and covertly when he was a child, and that he had been raised in the countryside and had a bad upbringing, Zhao Mingli's expression improved a lot.
She held Fang's arm submissively and said coquettishly, "My mother taught me that it is best to have a mother."
"Really, big sister?"
Ah Fu listened to Fang and Zhao Minglian verbally ridiculing Zhao Mingruo. He was angry and distressed and wanted to argue with these two people, "How can you say that to the eldest lady?"
Zhao Mingruo felt warm in his heart when he looked at Ah Fu. She was the maid left to him by his mother, and she had always been by his side when he first returned to the Duke's Mansion.
She has a weak personality, but is loyal to herself. For Zhao Mingruo, Ah Fu is the only person in the world who is close to her and her only relative.
Zhao Mingruo protected Ah Fu behind him, "Second sister is right, any kind of mother can hand over any kind of daughter. Second sister's evil intentions are far higher than those of my aunt, and she is better than her master."
