Seeing He Yuyan's haggard face, Dingxiang said with heartache, "Did you not sleep well last night, Miss?"

He Yuyan nodded.

For some reason, she felt a vague unease in her heart.

Dingxiang held her hand and comforted her, "Don't think too much, young lady. Today is your engagement day with your fiancé."

"Your son-in-law is fond of you; once you marry him, you will surely have a happy life."

After hearing Dingxiang's comforting words, she felt a little more at ease.

In the inn.

The Qin mother and daughter glanced at the letter in their hands.

This is what the waiter just gave them.

The letter instructed them to take the items to the Marquis of Dingguo's residence to plead their case, promising to deliver on their promises if the matter was resolved.

Qin threw everything the man had said onto the table.

If Wu Weiwei saw this, she would probably be surprised.

The dark object in front of her was the black iron box she had been searching for for many days, and she never expected that it would end up in the hands of the mother and daughter.

"What the hell is this?"

They initially thought the contents contained the land deeds and money that He Yan'er had stolen from her hometown, but upon opening it, they found only some worthless items.

A few pieces of charred paper, a pair of blackened pearl earrings, and some jewelry melted by the high temperature.

Now it's burned to the ground, and there's just a mess of things.

They're all worthless junk.

And so, that man actually tricked their whole family into coming here, and now he's gone back on his word and won't give them the money he promised to give them after they arrived in Beijing.

What's most hateful is that her dead husband was killed by robbers.

Damn it!

That damned liar.

"Let's go, let's go to the Marquis's mansion now. I have to make that damned swindler get what he deserves."

"Mom, calm down."

If you go like this, will the people of the Marquis of Dingguo's mansion let you in?

Besides, how could they believe you based on just a broken tin box?

Besides, have you forgotten how you and Dad returned to your hometown looking utterly defeated?

"What should we do then?" Qin asked angrily.

Her daughter only knows how to make sarcastic remarks and never offers any constructive advice.

If she had known it was a scam, she would never have listened to the old man and sold her land and house, and brought her whole family to the capital.

"We were used."

He Xiuer said with a gloomy face.

"How could I not know your mother?"

If it weren't for that, she wouldn't be angry.

"Mother, let's go to the Marquis of Dingguo's residence again."

"what?"

Isn't what her daughter said just nonsense?

Who just said we can't go?

"Listen to me first..."

He Xiuer leaned close to Qin Shi's ear and told her about her plans.

Biyunting.

These past two days, Wu Weiwei has been teaching her pet Polly to speak.

Polly is the little parrot that the Crown Prince gave her a few days ago. It's very clever, and its ability to mimic speech is probably no less than that of an ordinary three-year-old child.

"The prince is handsome and wealthy, and he is also dashing and debonair."

"The Crown Prince is handsome and wealthy. The Crown Prince is handsome and wealthy."

"Hmm, well said, Linghe, here is the reward."

Wanqiu, who was watching the parrot talk, found it amusing. She took an apple and put it into its pointed beak.

The parrot used its clever beak to peck a few times.

After tasting the crisp, sweet flesh of the apple, it happily said, "Thank you, thank you."

"Girl, this Polly is so smart, he even thanks you."

Wu Weiwei laughed and said, "Of course, it doesn't matter who gave it to me."

After speaking, Wu Weiwei went into the study inside the house.

Linghe and Wanqiu were feeding Polly apples outside when she came out with a sketchbook in her hand.

By this time, Polly had finished eating his apple.

Then it let out a loud burp.

Seeing Wu Weiwei waving the picture book in front of its eyes, it immediately became irritated and said, "Take it away, take it away."

"This……"

Lingfu, who was watching from the side, was shocked. "Polly, you can't be so disrespectful. The young lady is our master."

Wu Weiwei didn't mind, after all, it had just tasted the sweetness and probably wasn't in the mood now.

"Girl, what are you drawing?"

Wanqiu leaned closer.

"Let me take a look."

"Let me see, let me see..."

Polly then followed the teachings.

“Wanqiu, it’s learning from you, Polly likes you.”

really?

Wanqiu looked up at Polly and said, "Our girl is the best. You're not allowed to talk back to her."

“Our daughter is the best, you are not allowed to talk back to her.”

"The young master likes our young lady, you mustn't bully her."

"The young master likes our young lady, you mustn't bully her..."

Several people tried, but Polly always got the same result.

Lingfu looked at Wanqiu, feeling only surprise.

"Miss, could it be that Polly likes Wanqiu, which is why it listens to her?"

"I like Wanqiu, I like Wanhuo."

Wu Weiwei chuckled. Could it be that even a little bird like Polly understands love?

After that, the task of training Polly to recognize people naturally fell to Wanqiu.

"Lingfu, go and hang this string of wind chimes on the eaves of my house."

"Girl, there doesn't seem to be any wind there..."

Lingfu thought that hanging the wind chimes on the eaves where there was no wind was pointless.

"Go!"

"Yes, girl."

Although I don't understand why the girl did this, she liked it, so I'll just do it too.

After Ling Fu left, Wu Weiwei stared blankly at the woman in the picture book.

Actually, the person Wu Weiwei just showed Polly was the female lead.

In modern times, she was an art student at the Kyoto Central Academy of Fine Arts, and a talented woman in her department, so her painting skills were undoubtedly superb.

The reason she taught Polly to recognize people was because she was waiting for the female lead to return, at which point Polly would come in handy.

at night.

The Crown Prince has finished his work and is coming over.

Wu Weiwei was asleep when she heard the melodious sound of wind chimes coming from the corridor.

"World……"

Wanqiu, who was on night watch, was about to pay her respects to the prince when he stopped her with a look and gestured for her to leave.

Seeing Wu Weiwei fast asleep, clutching her blanket, Wanqiu could only wish the girl good luck.

Looking at the woman's charming appearance with her slightly pouting red lips, Lu Hanting's inner demons immediately awakened.

He couldn't resist giving her a light peck on her pink lips, but then, unable to hold back, he started groping her all over.

Just as they were about to take the next step, they heard Polly shout loudly from inside the room, "Your Highness is so sexy, Your Highness is so sexy."

"I……"

Lu Hanting made a throat-slitting gesture at it; he hadn't expected this parrot to be such a spoilsport.

I should have drowned it and thrown it away when the emperor bestowed it upon me.

"Sir..."

Wu Weiwei opened her eyes, looking blankly at the man who was burying his face in her chest.

“Wei’er…”

In front of Polly, the prince stripped Wu Weiwei of one of the few see-through sexy silk dresses she was wearing.

Polly was about to broadcast again when the despicable prince casually tossed his see-through skirt onto its birdcage, perfectly covering the bird's coveted eyes.

"The Crown Prince is treacherous, the Crown Prince is treacherous..."

With the help of the parrot Polly's voice, the two started playing a game.

At the same time, He Yuyan, far away in Tongzhou, sat anxiously in her room, waiting for Jiang Yang and his mother to come and make the deposit.
