Going through the twists and turns in the back house, Cheng Yushu also found some doorways.
She had already bribed Zhuang Er, including the people around Chen Wen.
Therefore, after so long, Zhao still didn't know about his existence.
Zhuang Er moved the money in his hand forward and said flatteringly: "I don't dare accept this small amount of money."
He is quite obedient. Cheng Yushu said with a smile: "Just accept what is given to you. We will remember your kindness to me and the young master, and we will never treat you badly."
Chen Wen looked at Cheng Yushu and smiled at her.
Cheng Yushu continued: "There is also Su Niang's marriage. You have to persuade Su Niang again. Once you marry, you will be an official wife. If you miss this, where can you get a better one?"
Zhuang Er's eyes lit up.
If Su Niang becomes an official's wife, won't all the bankers attain enlightenment and ascend to heaven?
Zhuang Er quickly kowtowed to Cheng Yushu, "Don't worry, Su Niang will listen to us the most. My parents and I will definitely persuade Su Niang to get married."
If it doesn't make sense, even if she is tied up, Zhuang Er will still tie Su Niang to worship in the church.
Cheng Yushu smiled, she didn't believe that Zhuang Er would be willing to miss such a good thing.
She knew that Su Niang was Zhao's right-hand man.
Without Su Niang, Zhao would be constrained in doing things.
Cheng Yushu asked Zhuang Er to go out and poured tea for Chen Wen with his own hands.
Chen Wen liked Cheng Yushu's gentle and considerate appearance. Compared with Zhao, Cheng Yushu was more lively and agile.
Chen Wen saw the gold-inlaid jade headband specially made by Cheng Yushu's craftsmen on Cheng Yushu's bun, and asked, "Have you been out today?"
Cheng Yushu held up the hairpin on her bun and said with a smile, "Well, I went to Mrs. Rong's place to sit for a while in the morning."
Chen Wen smiled and did not answer.
Mrs. Rong belongs to Prince Gong, and Chen Wen is not bold enough to make friends with the prince in private.
But he had always been conniving towards Cheng Yushu, so he turned a blind eye to the relationship between Cheng Yushu and Mrs. Rong.
Seeing this, Cheng Yushu put her soft and white hand on the back of Chen Wen's hand and said: "Mrs. Rong gave me something, saying that as long as you succeed, the prince will promise you a bright future, and you don't have to worry about it anymore."
Marquis Mansion, I will continue to be a young master with no sense of existence."
Chen Wen quickly retracted his hand and said hesitantly: "Let's forget it, I don't have that ability."
Cheng Yushu sneered in his heart, but pretended to be distressed on his face and shouted "Wenlang".
When Chen Wen looked over, she said softly: "Mr. Wen, I will help you deal with this matter, not only for you, for me, but also for our future! If you can't say a word in the Hou Mansion,
Then how can I enter the Hou Mansion? You know, my aunt and others have misunderstood me. If they knew that I was with you, they would definitely be so angry that they would send me back to my hometown."
As she spoke, she began to cry.
The cry was not loud, but it broke Chen Wen's heart.
Chen Wen immediately hugged Cheng Yushu to comfort him. Finally, amidst Cheng Yushu's tears, Chen Wen nodded, "What do you want me to do? As long as it's not harmful to nature, I will never do it."
Cheng Yushu burst into tears and laughed, and said hurriedly: "It's definitely not a sinful thing. You just need to put the things in the prince's study without anyone noticing."
Chen Wen asked warily: "What is it?"
"It's just some account books. The prince wanted the prince to do something for him before, but the prince refused, which made the prince angry. The prince wanted to teach the prince a lesson. At most, the prince would be reprimanded, and nothing would happen.
of."
Chen Wen was still very vigilant.
Although he is in the Hou Mansion, he is just a person with no sense of existence.
But he still has the acumen that he should have.
Is it really as simple as Cheng Yushu said?
Seeing the deep concern on Chen Wen's face, Cheng Yushu took the initiative to sit in Chen Wen's arms, wrapping her two slender arms around Chen Wen's neck and acting coquettishly.
"Wenlang, don't you believe me? Now I rely on you to survive, can I still lie to you? If something happens to the Hou Mansion, it will be of no benefit to you or me! And Mrs. Rong values me so much that she lets you
I do this. You know, I don't know many people in the capital, and it's rare to find anyone I can talk to. If you have someone else in your heart in the future, I won't be too lonely."
Cheng Yushu's nose felt sore and tears fell again.
Chen Wen's heart suddenly softened, he touched Cheng Yushu's face and said, "Don't worry, I'll just agree."

At night, when Chen Feng came back, Fu Zhao pretended to mention Chen Wen accidentally.
"I went to see my fourth sister-in-law today. I heard that my fourth brother has changed a lot recently."
Chen Feng played with the jade ring on his thumb and said calmly: "My fourth brother and I have never had a close relationship. The last time I talked to him alone was probably during the Chinese New Year."
This is true. Fu Zhao pursed his lips and pretended to say to himself, "I don't know what the fourth brother is busy with outside."
Chen Feng took Fu Zhao into his arms and asked with great interest: "When did you become so interested in fourth brother?"
Fu Zhao's eyelashes trembled twice, "I just feel sorry for the fourth sister-in-law. Such a big thing happened to the fourth sister-in-law, and the fourth brother was not with her. I heard that Sister Rui has not seen her father for a long time, and she often cries for help.
Where is my father?"
It is not difficult to find out a person's whereabouts, especially Chen Wen's whereabouts.
Chen Feng also knew about Chen Wen's recent changes, he just didn't bother to investigate.
Now that Fu Zhao mentioned it, he took it to heart.
Chen Feng chuckled, "I'll let Wei Shan go check it out, don't worry."
Fu Zhao hummed.
Spring has begun, and it’s time for the Hou Mansion to prepare a flower-viewing banquet.
This will be Chen Yaying's last flower viewing party as a young lady in the Hou Mansion, so she is particularly melancholy.
Mrs. Chen rewarded her with two pieces of silk and satin suitable for making spring clothes, and asked Chen Yaying to make new clothes to wear on that day.
On the day of the flower viewing party, Shen Han and the Shen family will come over.
In a confused moment, she felt that Shen Han was not a good match.
Chen Yaying couldn't sleep tossing and turning. After she found out about Shen Han's whereabouts, she used her handkerchief to hand over the reason for going on an outing and went out to look for Shen Han again.
She found Shen Han in the private room of the restaurant. Of course, Shen Han was not alone.
Shen Han was hugging him on the left and on the right, and there were two beauties fanning beside him. It felt very comfortable.
Seeing Chen Yaying suddenly barging in, Shen Han was surprised, then sat back and asked in a leisurely manner: "Why are Miss Chen Si here free? You didn't even say hello to me first."
Chen Yaying could spit out fire from her eyes, she wished she could burn these bunch of dogs and men to death with a fire!
She clenched her fists, resisting the urge to hit someone, and gritted her teeth and said, "I want to have a good chat with you."
