At night, Zhou Yao had a dream, and a tall shadow appeared in the dream.
When she opened her eyes in the morning and felt the throbbing for a long time, she slowly woke up.
She warned herself over and over again not to think wildly. Unexpectedly, as soon as she opened the courtyard door, she saw the person in her dream standing in front of her.
She almost thought this was another dream.
He Zhiqiu smiled at her and said, "Madam, it turns out it's you. We are really destined."
Zhou Yaomu nodded blankly, "Sir, are you here?"
There was a glimmer of hope in her heart, hoping that this person had fallen in love with her at first sight yesterday, so she had inquired all the way here.
But He Zhiqiu opened his mouth and said, "My new house is here, and I came to see it today!"
"Could it be that..." Zhou Yao looked at him in surprise, "The young master bought the house next door to ours?"
"Well," He Zhiqiu said, "You can also say that."
Originally, he hadn't found the specific place yet, but after hearing Zhou Yao say it was next door, he subconsciously continued to take a few steps to the right.
Sure enough, a quaint courtyard fell into view.
He took out the key and tried to unlock the door, but it opened easily.
He Zhiqiu breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out to be the right place.
Walking into the courtyard, he closed the door and shut out Zhou Yao who still had a lot to say.
Zhou Yao was slightly embarrassed, but she felt that this was completely normal. After all, they just met on the street and there was no friendship between them.
Anyway, he already lives next door, so she will still have many opportunities to talk to him in the future.
He Zhiqiu didn't know how the woman holding her child outside the door felt when she saw him. He only knew that he was extremely excited when he saw the layout of the house inside and outside at this moment.
"It seems that I was right to go to the gambling house last night. I really made a lot of money this time!"
In the past three years, he has not suffered all the hardships outside. Although he has no fame or any skills, he is good-looking and has some boxing skills.
He could find a place to work and not starve to death, but these were not what he wanted.
Life anywhere could not be as luxurious and comfortable as in the Duke's Mansion, so he missed home very much.
But his father had an order not to allow him to return to the capital, let alone his hometown. He said that if he saw him in the capital, he would break his legs.
So he quietly went to Beijing, hoping to take advantage of his father's fiftieth birthday to get a chance to return.
To wish your father a happy birthday, you need a gift.
How could an ordinary gift be appreciated by his father, but he didn't have that much money to buy something unusual?
Before he knew it, he went to the gambling house.
He thought that as long as he earned enough money to buy a birthday gift for his father, he would stop.
Unexpectedly, his luck seemed to be particularly good on his first day in Beijing. Not only did he win money, he also won a house deed.
When he came out of the gambling house at dawn, he had nowhere to stay, so he went directly to the address of the house deed.
He was not afraid that there was someone living in that house, because the person who gambled on the house deed said that the house had just been tidied up and no one had moved in yet.
He Zhiqiu came to the bedroom and saw the high bed and soft pillows. After gambling all night, he immediately fell asleep.
…
Early in the morning, Su Nianyun, who had just woken up, was dressing up in the mirror when Chunhua walked in.
"Princess, what we arranged last night is done!"
Su Nianyun smiled slightly and said, "Well done, you will also be rewarded."
"Thank you princess!"
After packing up, Su Nianyun went to the old lady's room.
Seeing Su Nianyun walking into the house, the old lady hurriedly waved to Su Nianyun, "Nianyun, come quickly..."
Su Nianyun walked a few steps quickly and came to the old lady's side, "Old Madam."
The old lady said, "Mama Zhao's technique is far inferior to yours, but I still feel more comfortable when you apply facial makeup on me."
Su Nianyun immediately pushed Ma Zhao aside, then picked some facial fat, rubbed it in her palms to warm it, and then slowly applied it to the old lady's face.
With the lubrication of the facial oil, he kneaded and massaged her face.
After a while, the old lady closed her eyes and let out a familiar sigh, "Hey, I still want to read the clouds!"
Su Nianyun smiled and said, "Mom, practice makes perfect, I just need to give Mother Zhao some time and let her see my techniques a few more times."
Zhao Ma stood aside with a complicated expression.
Recently, she clearly felt that the old lady was alienated from her.
If Biyu had made a mistake and offended the princess first, she would have admitted it, but unfortunately, there was also a steward Qin who was instigating discord.
Butler Qin can be said to be the second most responsible person in the Chen family, second only to the old lady.
There is no way, he is the cousin of the old lady's mother's family. In terms of closeness and distance, he is the person that the old lady trusts the most.
Yesterday, Butler Qin came back from collecting rent from Zhuangzi and reported the accounts to the old lady, then he went to find Bai He in a hurry.
Unexpectedly, after walking around the courtyards, they suddenly found Bai He being imprisoned in the woodshed.
Seeing that his backbone was back, Bai He felt confident. She snuggled into Butler Qin's arms and cried, telling how Biyu framed her and so on...
Bai He was naturally enchanting, but the sight of the pear blossoms and the rain made Butler Qin feel angry in his lower abdomen, and he immediately ignored her and had a gentle relationship with her.
After several disputes, Butler Qin promised Bai He that he would seek justice for her.
So, there was a scene where he falsely accused a little girl under Zhao Ma's jurisdiction of stealing, and the old lady scolded Zhao Ma for three days in a row.
After massaging the old lady's face, Su Nianyun looked at Zhao's mother.
"Mother Zhao, did you see clearly what I just did?"
Zhao's mother was a little embarrassed, "The princess's methods are complicated, and the servant is stupid, sometimes, sometimes..."
Instead, Su Nianyun comforted her, "Don't be impatient. There are some acupoints involved in the massage, so you may be a slower learner."
She turned to the old lady and said, "Mom, do you have a girl who knows medicine by your side?"
The old lady's eyes fell on Wen's mother.
Wen's mother could only reply honestly, "In the past, I knew that Bai He was proficient in medical skills, but she..."
Wen's mother wanted to say that Bai He was still locked up in the woodshed.
But I felt that it was not good to say it in this situation. After all, this girl was also charged with stealing the Jade Buddha.
"It turns out to be Bai He," Su Nianyun suddenly realized, "She is by my side, but I didn't know she understood this."
She suggested to the old lady, "Mom, why don't I teach her these acupoint massage techniques, so that when I am not around, she can massage my mother at any time."
"Nianyun, you are really thoughtful!" The old lady nodded with satisfaction, "That's it."
Just in time, Butler Qin begged her to let Bai He go, and the old lady Zhengchou told Su Nianyun for some reason that it was okay now, and Su Nianyun proposed it herself.
Soon, Bai He was released from the woodshed.
She originally thought that although she had a chance to escape this time, she would no longer be a first-class girl. Unexpectedly, she got the news that she would return to the old lady to take care of her.
Not only that, but also personal care.
In this way, although she and Biyu are both first-class girls, because she can take care of the old lady personally, her status is higher than Biyu.
At night, she went to Butler Qin's room and used her most useful body to thank Butler Qin.
In Bai He's view, it was entirely due to Butler Qin that he reversed his misfortune.
Looking at the enchanting woman with such passionate body, Butler Qin accepted the credit.
Of course, he did not forget to go and thank Su Nianyun the next day.
"Thank you princess for letting Bai Hema go!"
Su Nianyun put down the teacup in her hand.
"It was Zhao Ma and Biyu who had inappropriate reveries that caused all this trouble. I know that these things have nothing to do with Bai He!"
