The War God Uncle's Delicate Wife

"Changyun, have you chosen the female secret guards?" Mu Jiuchen asked while handling official business.

"Master, I have asked An Yi to pick it and he will bring it here soon," Chang Yun replied respectfully.

"Well, I'll bring it here later. Let's go down."

"Yes." Changyun bowed and left the study.

Mu Jiuchen felt warm in his heart when he thought of Jiang Li's appearance that day. Her current situation was not good. Those guys wanted to take advantage of her, and Mu Jiuchen felt that he had to be prepared.

He felt that Jiang Li must have someone skilled in martial arts to protect him. Although Jiang Li also had some martial arts skills, it would be useless if he faced someone with shady means. Moreover, the Jiang and Xie families had upright family traditions and teachings, and they would not let Jiang Li get in touch with those private means, so Mu Jiuchen felt that he had to find a suitable person.

"Knock knock knock" there was a knock on the door.

"Enter"

"Your Highness, they're here." Behind Chang Yun followed An Yi and a round-faced girl.

"Well, An Yi, I trust the person you picked. Find a way to send him in."

"Master, I am Sixteen, where is our princess?"

"Hmm?" Mu Jiuchen suddenly looked up. When he heard the word "Princess", the corners of his mouth curled up and he nodded, thinking that this title was nice.

"Your name is Sixteen? Don't you have a name?" Mu Jiuchen chatted with Sixteen for a while because of that name.

"Yes, Your Majesty. I was taken into the Dark Guard Camp by An Yi when I was young. We didn't even have a name, hehe."

Mu Jiuchen felt that Jiang Li should like Sixteen's personality.

"Go, serve your new master well and you will be rewarded."

"Okay, Prince Sixteen will definitely protect the princess. Don't worry!"

Then the three of them left the study together.

Jiang Li returned to Xiangya Garden after talking with his elder and third brothers that night. He didn't fall asleep for a while because he had taken a nap in the afternoon. Instead, he chatted and did needlework with Chuntao and Xiahe. In his previous life, when he was bored in the East Palace after marrying Muyang, he would also make some small things with Chuntao to pass the time. But Xiahe was not there at that time. Now I think it's really not worth it. The good years after marrying in were wasted.

"Miss, what do you want to do?" Chuntao was very curious about why the young lady suddenly wanted to do needlework.

"Well, go get that piece of navy blue cloth with gold threads from the cupboard. I'll make purses for my brothers and father. When I'm done, I'll make a handkerchief for mother, using that piece of purple material."

"Miss, are you sure?" Chuntao remembered that Miss occasionally used to sew when she was young, but she never did it again later! Why did she have to do so much this time? Would Miss be sad if she didn't do it well? Even Xia He was surprised.

"Chun Tao, hurry up and bring it here. The Dragon Boat Festival is coming soon, but they should be able to make one each," Jiang Li told Chun Tao with a smile in his eyes. Chun Tao went to the cupboard with a tangled look on her face and took out the fabric.

"Miss, let Sister Xia He and I help you!" Chuntao was a little worried that the young lady might ruin the fabric with just one touch.

Jiang Li took the material, picked up the scissors and the chalk pencil in the basket, and started to work without saying anything. Chun Tao, who was standing by, was stunned. How could she not know when the young lady learned all this? Looking at the young lady's skilled appearance, it seemed as if she had done it many times.

Xia He was a little older, but she didn't show it on her face like Chun Tao did. She was thinking the same question in her heart.

Xia He hurriedly helped the young lady take out the needle and thread and patterns, and Chun Tao stopped being in a daze and came forward to help.

"Chun Tao, go get some more colored silk threads for me to use in making the brocade."

"Hmm." Chuntao saw how the young lady made a purse, and she was no longer surprised by the knitting.

Then the master and his servants began to work. Jiang Li chose bamboo as the pattern for his father, Clivia for his eldest brother, pine for his second brother, and chrysanthemum for his third brother. As for his mother's handkerchief, he chose her favorite red plum. After choosing the pattern, he started to work.

Chuntao looked at the bamboo embroidered by the young lady and felt that her embroidery skills were not as good as hers.

"Miss, you embroider so well."

"Chun Tao, you taught me all that! Don't you remember?" Jiang Li said with a smile.

"I taught you? Why don't I remember it?" Chuntao scratched her head in surprise, looking confused.

"Yes, how could she remember? It was after she married Mu Yang, Chun Tao saw that she was becoming more and more unhappy alone, so Chun Tao suggested that Jiang Li do some embroidery. Later, when Jiang Li finished the embroidery, Chun Tao suggested that she give it to Mu Yang. Only then did she endure it day by day until the end of her life." A scene from Jiang Li's previous life lingered in his mind again.

"Okay, Chuntao, hurry up and help the young lady. After you finish this, serve the young lady and let her rest. Staying up too late is not good for the eyes." Xia He never stopped working.

"Okay, Miss, hurry up and finish it, otherwise I won't want to get up tomorrow."

But Jiang Li suddenly thought of how to give her second brother's purse? She suddenly thought of someone who might be able to help, but how could she ask for help? Otherwise, she could make another one. After all, one would be the same as two. Besides, it was just a simple Dragon Boat Festival purse, so it shouldn't be a big deal, right?

Jiang Li was a little confused about what pattern to embroider for him. After all, she didn't know him very well. Thinking of that person that day, she felt like laughing. Forget it, she would just embroider a bamboo one. Just like the one for her father, right?
