Mistakenly recognized as a cousin, thousands of pampered

Near dusk, the nanny who was in charge of looking after Tao Jiuxi finally appeared slowly.

The nanny folded her hands in front of her chest, her face full of impatience, and the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes were as deep as if cut by a knife. She looked very mean. She glanced at Tao Jiuxi with a sarcastic sneer on the corner of her mouth.

"Humph, do you really think you're a precious master? You've only been locked up for two or three days. Who are you pretending to be like this?"

As the nanny spoke, she dropped the food box heavily on the ground with a loud "bang", venting her dissatisfaction.

Tao Jiuxi was originally lying quietly on the mat, pretending to be exhausted.

But then, when he saw the food box, he slowly stood up very weakly and reached out to grab the food box.

"You really have no spine."

The nanny curled her lips, her face full of disdain, her eyes as if she was looking at a puppy wagging its tail and begging for mercy.

Tao Jiuxi opened the lunch box and drank the rice soup in one gulp without hesitation.

"What? Are you so hungry after just three days?" The nanny squatted down, curled her lips unkindly, and her tone was full of sarcasm.

"You said you would release me after three days. Today is already the third day. Can you please let me out?"

"You gave in so quickly?" The nanny raised her eyebrows, a hint of pride flashing in her eyes.

"I give in. It's dark and cold here, and I hear strange noises at night. I can't stay here any longer. Can you let me go back to the yard? My sister must be worried sick about me right now."

Tao Jiuxi pretended to be very scared just to let the nanny relax her vigilance. She couldn't simply believe everything Xie Yushu said. In case her sister was still staying in the mansion, she couldn't run away alone and abandon Tao Qingwan.

"Don't worry, your sister is different from you. She is blessed. Right now, she is praying for you in Jian'an Temple."

Upon hearing this, Tao Jiuxi felt relieved to know that his sister was indeed not at home at the moment.

"Jiuxi is ignorant. I don't know how this can be considered a blessing?" Tao Jiuxi's face was full of doubts, and his eyes revealed confusion.

"Her Royal Highness the Princess took a fancy to your sister at the polo match. I believe she is about to get married. No sooner had you been imprisoned than the Princess's invitation arrived. Let our wife take your sister to Jian'an Temple to accompany her to worship Buddha."

Mammy narrowed her eyes slightly, and a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"But your sister is also stupid. She was so naive that she actually believed the lady's words that she was sending you to Pizhou to find your father. Right now, she might be kneeling in Jian'an Temple, her knees swollen, praying for your safe journey."

As the nanny spoke, she shook her head vigorously, and every wrinkle on her face was filled with contempt, as if she was mocking Tao Qingwan's naivety and stupidity.

"The eldest princess wants to find a marriage for my sister? Who is she looking for?" Tao Jiuxi's heart tightened and he asked hurriedly.

"Anyone who can be proposed to by the eldest princess must be rich or noble. Even if she becomes a concubine to the prime minister, she will come from my Xie Mansion. She will definitely be grateful to my Xie Mansion." The nanny raised her head slightly, a hint of pride on her face.

Tao Jiuxi really didn't admire the nanny in front of him. She was indeed a good dog to her master.

But when I heard that the eldest princess wanted to arrange a marriage for my sister, I was shocked. It was just a one-time meeting, so could she just randomly match them up?

But soon, he forced himself to calm down and disguise his emotions.

"In that case, please let me go back quickly. When my sister comes back, I won't be angry with my aunt anymore." Tao Jiuxi said anxiously.

Mammy sneered, a shrewd look in her eyes.

"Cousin, do you really think I've lived all these years in vain?"

"What do you mean, Madam?" Tao Jiuxi pretended not to understand and asked nervously.

"If your sister had no power, she would have just locked you up for a few days. Even if she knew, there would be nothing she could do. But times are different now. Your sister might gain power one day. What would happen if she knew about this?" The nanny frowned slightly, a hint of worry in her eyes.

"Madam, are you planning to kill me?"

Tao Jiuxi widened his eyes and looked at the nanny with horror, his body unconsciously shrinking back, but his hands hidden in his wide sleeves were tightly holding the handkerchief with sleeping pills, ready to knock the nanny unconscious at any time.

"This old servant cannot make the decision. As long as you serve the young master obediently today and give your body to him, the matter will be settled. Then, after your sister comes back, I believe you will not have any second thoughts and will naturally not control you then." There was a hint of cunning in the nanny's eyes and a hint of threat in her tone.

"Give me your body? Brother Jing Yan knows that I'm locked up here?" Tao Jiuxi's face turned pale in an instant, and his voice trembled slightly.

"I don't know yet. As long as the young lady is willing to devote herself to me, I will invite the young master to come over."

Tao Jiuxi now confirmed that Xie Jinghe didn't know about this, so she could still act according to the original plan, so she didn't play along with the nanny.

Tao Jiuxi's mouth corners suddenly rose slightly, and a sarcastic smile slowly bloomed on her lips.

"Do you think your young master is an animal? If I agree, will he agree too?"

"How can you talk like that, you little bitch?" The nanny's face darkened and a hint of anger appeared in her eyes.

"I speak with my mouth. Why don't you just shut me up?" Tao Jiuxi had a smile on his face, but his hands did not slacken their movements.

"Don't worry, young lady. Madam won't kill you unless it's absolutely necessary. You are the apple of the young master's eye." The nanny's tone softened a little. She came today just to see if Tao Jiuxi, who had been hungry for three days, would give in and willingly serve her young master.

"If I don't want to today, you will still lock me up, right?" Tao Jiuxi said, and his eyes slowly swept across the simple house again.

"It's good that the girl knows."

The nanny thought that Tao Jiuxi would agree to her conditions because he was afraid of being imprisoned again, so her tone was much softer than before.

However, she never expected that she would hear Tao Jiuxi's response as soon as she finished speaking.

"Okay, then you guys stay locked up. Please go back, Madam." Tao Jiuxi said in a flat tone, and then he lay back on the futon.

When the nanny heard this, her face turned red with anger.

She couldn't hit Tao Jiuxi directly, fearing that Tao Jiuxi would take revenge on her in the future if she gained Xie Jinghuan's favor. However, she was still furious and kicked the food box on the ground. Seeing that Tao Jiuxi was just lying there quietly without any reaction, she became even more furious: "What an ungrateful person."

Then, the nanny left with a heart full of anger and cursing.

Tao Jiuxi lay quietly on the mat, his eyes slightly closed. He seemed calm, but his mind was in turmoil as he secretly planned his next move.

She had thought about knocking the nanny unconscious and then running away, but she had many concerns.

First, she was not sure whether the drugs in her hand were really effective. If the drugs failed to work, her situation would be even more dangerous.

Secondly, Xie Jinghuan was very affectionate towards her. In her opinion, even if her actions were discovered, Xie Jinghuan was capable of protecting her.

She held the handkerchief tightly in her hand, waiting for the opportunity to come.
