2. The Prime Minister's Tool Man Step-wife (2)

Only then did Taoye remember that Shichu still had the reputation of being the wife of the prime minister, no matter how muddy the wall was. Although she didn't think that Shichu had the guts to complain to the prime minister, the rabbit would bite people when it got anxious.

She couldn't be too arrogant. It wouldn't be good if she was forced to risk her life.

So she had no choice but to say: "Madam is joking, I will go find something to eat for Madam."

As she was about to go out, Shichu hurriedly called out to her: "Call those lazy servants back to me as errands!"

At the beginning of the morning, I got up and sat in front of the dressing table. An unclear face was reflected in the bronze mirror. However, no matter how unclear it was, I could still see the thin face, pale complexion and dry and lusterless hair of the person in the mirror.

The original owner had no biological mother since he was a child. After having a stepmother, he had a stepfather. He suffered a lot. He suffered from lack of food and clothing every day. He was so hungry that he looked sallow and skinny. He was twenty years old and still had a shriveled figure, like a fifteen or sixteen year old.

The little girl's face was lifeless and lifeless, without any youthful beauty of a young girl.

Shichu looked at himself with disgust and twitched the corner of his mouth. Fortunately, his facial bones were straight and his nose was delicate and small. Although his eyebrows were light, he could tell that they were well-shaped. His eyes were dim and lifeless, but they were big and round.

The eyes are also clear. As long as you take good care of them, when your cheeks become fleshy and your face becomes rosy, they will not be ugly.

Shi Chu carefully looked at the appearance of the original owner, and then a tall maid walked in. Seeing Shi Chu sitting in front of the dressing table, she asked: "Do you want to dress up today, madam?"

"Yes, give me some dignified and imposing makeup." Shi Chu glanced at the maid named Li Ye and said.

Liye looked at Shichu in surprise, obviously not expecting her to make such a request, so she asked: "Madam, are you going out?" Otherwise, there is no need to dress up "impressively".

Shi Chu nodded and asked Li Ye to take action.

After I finished applying makeup, Shi Chu took a look at it and used black powder to paint the two eyebrows a little darker before I was satisfied.

After eating what Taoye brought back, Shichu said: "Gather all the people who came with me to marry me. I will give you some instructions later."

Tao Ye and Pear Ye looked at each other, not knowing what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd at the beginning. Tao Ye asked: "What are you going to do, madam?"

"Of course something happens, just call people. Remember, no one is missing." Shichu said solemnly, and then told Li Ye, "You and I go to find the eldest lady."

When Shichu left the house, she found that her yard was really deserted and remote. Although it occupied a large area, the yard was empty, even the flowers and plants were sparse, and even her owner was lifeless.

The original owner had never been to the eldest lady Luo Yaqing's yard, and he still called a servant from the Prime Minister's Mansion to find the place.

Luo Yaqing was writing a letter to her best friend in her study room when she heard the maid reporting that Madam was here. For a while, she didn't remember who it was: "Madam? Why is Madam looking for me?"

Apparently she had forgotten that she had a stepmother.

"That's the step-wife. Miss, have you forgotten the prime minister's new wife?" Her eldest maid quickly reminded her.

Only then did Luo Yaqing think of her stepmother, who was not worthy of her name: "Why did she come to me?"

"Maybe something is wrong. Please change your clothes quickly. She will be here soon."

When Shichu entered Luo Yaqing's courtyard, a maid ushered her in and said apologetically: "Madam, please sit down for a while and have some snacks and a cup of tea. The lady will be out soon."

She is worthy of being the daughter of the Prime Minister. When she saw the invisible man at the beginning, she did not look down upon him at all, but was respectful and polite. This was in sharp contrast to her maid.

"Mom, mother, you're here, what do you want from me?" Luo Yaqing called out to Shi Chu awkwardly, but she soon became calm after speaking.

When I first looked at Luo Yaqing, I saw that she was fifteen or sixteen years old, with a small heart-shaped face, round and bright almond eyes, two thin eyebrows and a slight smile. At first glance, she was a pleasant person.

The beautiful girl I like.

"I want to go back to Uncle Ningyuan's house. You can ask the second housekeeper and a few strong servants to accompany me back." Shichu didn't be polite to her and directly stated the purpose of his visit.

Luo Yaqing was a little confused: "Don't you have your own nanny? Why do you still need one?"

"Of course it's convenient for a fox to pretend to be a tiger." Shi Chu said meaningfully, "By the way, we also need a few skilled guards."

Luo Yaqing was surprised. Although she didn't have much contact with this stepmother, she knew that she was timid and afraid of getting into trouble. She didn't expect to say these unexpected words at this moment. It seemed that her stepmother was not as cowardly as the legend said.

Luo Yaqing readily lent the person to her. Although she didn't know what she would do when she returned to her parents' home, it didn't affect anything in the prime minister's house, so it didn't matter.

Although she didn't like someone occupying her mother's position, it was only in name only at the beginning and would not harm the interests of her and her brother, so she was still willing to help with this small favor.

At the beginning of the day, he led a group of people in a carriage back to Uncle Ningyuan's Mansion.

In the Shouchun Hall of Uncle Ningyuan's Mansion, Xu Shichu's eldest aunt, Mrs. Zhou, was frowning and looking at the account books of the mansion this month. Uncle Ningyuan's Mansion would have been in disgrace a long time ago, if she hadn't been calculating every day.

, fussing over everything, how difficult it is to make a living in the house, so Mrs. Zhou feels bad every time she looks at the account book.

This month she was unable to make ends meet again. Mrs. Zhou was sullenly thinking about how to deduct her husband's concubine to save some money. A nanny came in from outside, saluted her, and said with a smile: "Old madam, third aunt, grandma

I came back from the Prime Minister’s Mansion, and I brought a lot of people with me, it’s really impressive!”

"Grandma Third Aunt? Xu Shichu?!" Mrs. Zhou finally remembered that Grandma Three Aunt was her niece who married into the Prime Minister's Mansion three months ago as her stepmother. When she heard that she was back, she became happy and frowned.

It also stretched out.

Yes, this niece is the wife of the prime minister who holds great power at that time. Among the daughters of the uncle's house, she is the one who has the most prestigious marriage. Her parents' family is in such a difficult situation, so she should help her!

When she thought of this, Ms. Zhou immediately became energetic, but she still felt a little pity in her heart. It would have been better if it was her own daughter who married into the Prime Minister's Mansion, and now she was getting her niece's advantage in vain.

She didn't know that what Luo Changqing was interested in was Xu Shichu's character and life experience. Even if she had a daughter, Luo Changqing would not choose her daughter.

"Hurry and greet Grandma Sangu." Mrs. Zhou deliberately called Grandma Sangu instead of Mrs. Xiangfu, just to appear more affectionate with her niece. At this time, their uncle's family had to rely on Xu Shichu, not Xu Shichu who had to rely on her.

As soon as Xu Shichu entered the hall, Mrs. Zhou immediately came up to her, held her hand affectionately, looked at her lovingly, and said repeatedly: "Oh, Sister Chu is back, you have been away for three months.

Auntie, I don’t know how much I miss you! Let Auntie see... you have lost weight..."
