Because the carriage was too wide to enter the alley, Song Wu ordered the driver to stop at Xuanwu Street.

She and Sang Luo sat in the carriage, waiting for Xiaokui to come back from buying cinnabar and yellow paper.

Song Wu: "From now on, you are no longer a member of the Duke's Mansion, but my bodyguard. Are you disappointed?"

Sang Luo is five years older than Song Wu and is already twenty-four. Song Wu looked at her face and saw that she was poor in her childhood, wealthy in her middle age, and a shrewd person. Now she is dressed in a dark red suit and looks heroic.

She replied, "What's there to be disappointed about? Miss, don't you have money? Following someone with money is just like following anyone else!"

Song Wu was not surprised: "If you want to make money, why do you sell yourself?"

"When I was young, my family didn't like me and sent me to a big opera troupe to earn money to marry my brother."

"Every month, the day before the salary was distributed, my father would go to the opera troupe to watch over me. I worked so hard, but I couldn't even afford the medicine for my injuries, so I ran away with the traffickers!"

"The traffickers saw that I had practiced in an opera troupe, so they recommended me to wealthy families. In the end, I was chosen by the Duke's Mansion!"

Sang Luo smiled nonchalantly, as if talking about someone else's business. "Butler Lu said that the young lady is a very capable person. As for me, besides wanting to save some money, I also like to practice martial arts. I hope the young lady can assign me more work!"

"You are quite straightforward." Song Wu smiled, then looked at her seriously, "But following me may not be that easy. It depends on your own cleverness."

She couldn't say that she liked Sang Luo for the time being, but she didn't reject him either.

Although some people are materialistic, who can look down on those who make money by their own efforts and want to leave a way out for themselves?

It was a bit stuffy inside the carriage, so Song Wu opened the curtain.

Outside the window, a familiar silhouette of the opposite carriage passed by her sight.

Song Chuchu?

Didn't she say he was badly injured? Why did he leave the house so soon?

Haha, you really aren’t worried about being exposed!

Speaking of Song Chuchu's injury, before his rebirth, Song Wu really felt like there was something stuck in his throat.

But now, she already knows her tricks well.

On the day when she was punished to go to the farm, Song Chuchu planned to seduce Ji Bozhou with the love fragrance, but was discovered by Song Wu.

She thought that even if she wanted to change the engagement, she would have to ask Ji Bozhou's opinion first. So when she saw him about to be dragged into the house by Song Chuchu, she arrived in time and pulled him over.

But she didn't expect that Song Chuchu not only didn't feel embarrassed or annoyed at having her trick discovered, but instead deliberately pounced on her arm, quickly stepped back, hardened her heart and hit her head hard on the door frame, and then said that it was Song Wu who pushed her!

The wound just avoided the face, and it looked scary and bleeding, but it was actually not a serious injury.

Everyone in the Marquis' Mansion rushed over after hearing the noise. In front of everyone, Song Chuchu asked Song Wu not to kill her and said that she could leave the Marquis' Mansion.

So her younger brother Song Chusi, whom she had carefully protected for seventeen years, slapped her twice on the spot and kicked her to the ground.

She was directly punished by her uncle and mistress to go to the farm to reflect on her mistakes, and was not allowed to come back for at least a month.

Looking at the shadow that was quickly leaving from the opposite side, Song Wu sneered in the car.

Yesterday the city was full of rumors, and today they went out.

She could guess with her toes what the second young lady was doing.

Sang Luo followed Song Wu's gaze and glanced across at the opposite side: "Miss, does that person have a grudge against you?"

"You should be clear about my identity, right?" Song Wu looked back. "The rumors in the city yesterday were about me and her!"

Sang Luo glared: "It's the Second Young Lady who wants to kill you?!"

……

After Xiao Kui came back with a big bag of things, the carriage team continued on their journey.

Li was standing at the door, but Song Chuchu's carriage arrived first.

She was furious.

"You're so badly injured, and you're still going out! You really don't take your body seriously!"

But after thinking about it, she pulled Song Chuchu to stand at the door as well.

Song Chuchu said impatiently: "Mom, what are you doing? My daughter still has a headache!"

Although Li felt distressed, she still glared at her in anger.

"Just now, the servants said they saw a carriage from the Duke's Mansion in the distance. I guess it must be the Fourth Young Lady bringing that bastard back! Your sister can't be the only one to reap the benefits. You should also show your face in front of the Duke's Mansion!"

"By the time you become familiar with the Fourth Young Lady, you'll be able to attend any women's banquet. You won't let that bitch steal all the limelight!"

When Song Chuchu heard this, she immediately became alert.

She clearly remembered that Song Wu had no connection with the Anguo Mansion in her previous life. Why was she not only sent back safely yesterday, but also invited to the Anguo Mansion today?

But thinking that their birthdays were only ten days away, she suppressed her dissatisfaction.

I can't stand it much longer!

The carriage and ceremonial procession of the Duke's Mansion arrived soon, and Sang Luo jumped off nimbly.

Li smiled so hard that her eyebrows were not visible. "Oh, the fourth lady has run twice today. How can this be done?"

She nudged Song Chuchu with her arm, signaling Song Chuchu to come forward and support the fourth girl Lu Yuehe.

Song Chuchu really endured it again and again.

In her previous life, she was the most honorable queen in Daliang. Who wouldn’t be respectful when seeing her?

After being reborn, she just returned to the uncle's house and was still being oppressed by the bastard Song Wu!

She had long been fed up with the days when those two idiots, Li and Song Ming, would not allow this or that, and she only regretted that the time was not right yet!

Song Chuchu still pretended to be obedient and walked forward and stretched out her hand.

Sang Luo looked at her in surprise and stretched out his arm.

Song Wu got out of the carriage, looked at the two hands in front of him, supported Sang Luo and walked down steadily.

Song Chuchu suddenly retracted her hand: "Why is it you?!"

Song Wu smiled coldly: "If it's not me, then who does the Second Miss think it is?"

Song Chuchu turned her head and glanced at Li, and Li's face suddenly turned cold.

Song Wu's voice was icy and piercing: "Isn't the Second Miss too injured to get out of bed? How could you still have the energy to go out and kill someone today?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's expression changed drastically.

"How dare you!" Song Chuchu scolded harshly, "You are slandering me for no reason. It seems you really have no regrets!"

Hearing Song Chuchu's arrogant tone, Song Wu subconsciously realized that something was wrong.

No, she is the best at pretending to be pitiful at this time, how could she say such ostentatious words?

Song Chuchu also noticed her own reaction, so she continued in a soft, tearful voice, "I came to pick you up with good intentions, yet you slandered me like this! It wasn't enough that you spread those rumors yesterday, but today you're accusing me of murder?"

When Li heard Song Chuchu say this, her heart slowly calmed down.

She knew that it was the bitch Song Wu who spoke nonsense and really scared her just now!

After Song Wu got off the car, Xiao Kui also got off with a big bag of things.

Li stood on tiptoe to peer into the carriage, but there was no sign of the Fourth Young Lady. However, she couldn't get angry in front of the servants of the Duke's Mansion, so she just glared at Song Wu with disgust.

Song Wu didn't care about Li's expression: "Second Miss went to the government jail today, right? I guess Haiyue is dead?"
