Wu Weiwei not only brought Wanqiu with her, but she also brought Polly to Qiushui Pavilion.

"May Lady Hou be blessed with good fortune."

"May Lady Hou be blessed with good fortune, and may she stay young forever and always be smiling."

Polly looked at the elegantly dressed Lady Hou and said in a sweet, bird-like voice.

Lady Hou looked at the parrot that was paying its respects to her, and her face showed a hint of surprise.

Unexpectedly, Wu Weiwei brought this parrot, a gift from His Majesty.

"Hehe, its name is Polly, right!"

"But one with a sweet tongue and a knack for charming people, reward her!"

Lady Hou was initially depressed, but the parrot's words instantly cheered her up.

With a strange expression, Qingwen took a silver ingot out of her rusty bag and threw it at the parrot.

The silver nugget traced a perfect arc in the air, then changed direction just as Polly's beak was about to catch it, landing perfectly.

Not receiving the silver ingot, Polly glared angrily at Qingwen, "You bad guy, you bad guy!"

"you……"

Qingwen wanted to reprimand her, but the Lady Hou's cold gaze swept over her, immediately silencing her.

Seeing this, Wu Weiwei felt extremely happy.

As expected, Polly also dislikes the people she dislikes.

Qingwen glared at Polly resentfully, thinking to herself: "As expected, if the master is annoying, the bird he raises will be annoying too."

Finally, Wanqiu helped Poli pick up the silver ingot, and Poli happily carried it to its den.

It knew that following its master meant good things were coming.

This shiny silver thing can buy it delicious food.

"Thank you for your generous gift, Madam Hou. May you live a long and healthy life!"

"hehe!"

Lady Hou looked at Wu Weiwei's beautiful face. Just by looking at how she could train such a lovable little bird, she knew that Wu Weiwei was good at coaxing people.

Besides, she's also very beautiful, no wonder Ting'er dotes on her.

In less than a month, her rank was repeatedly elevated until she was promoted to the rank of favored concubine.

The same position that was promised to He Yuyan.

When Ting'er mentioned her rank, the old lady did mention it briefly in front of her.

However, she managed to shut him down.

Although Ting'er dotes on her, if she is unruly, he will definitely not let her become too powerful.

Now she realizes that Ms. Wu's position is quite good.

Seeing that her son had gone to Tongzhou, she was determined to bring He Yuyan back.

If that woman comes back, she will surely cause trouble in the house again.

Now that the Wu family is on equal footing with her, she has one less thing to worry about.

"Mrs. Wu, do you know why Ting'er rushed to Tongzhou today?"

Wu Weiwei raised her eyes, her brows furrowing slightly: "Weiwei is willing to listen to Madam Hou's explanation."

Lady Hou stared at her, seeing that she seemed genuinely unaware.

Only then did I explain it to her in detail.

……

"Now you know why I sent you to Ting'er in the first place, right?"

"Ah."

Wu Weiwei pursed her lips, her expression seemingly tinged with sadness, but then she smiled broadly.

"you do not mind?"

Lady Hou asked.

Wu Weiwei shook her head.

"If the Crown Prince has another woman who loves and respects him as much as I do, I should be grateful to her."

Lady Hou saw that she spoke sincerely and seemed to have no jealousy whatsoever.

She couldn't believe there could be such a magnanimous person in the world.

Besides, Wu Weiwei had just tasted the joy of being loved, so how could she be willing to give up her man?

"You should know that if He Yuyan comes back, Ting'er might devote all his attention to her."

You might fall out of favor...

"To gain it is my fortune, to lose it is my fate."

Lady Hou, I believe in fate. If something is meant to be mine, it cannot escape me.

What doesn't belong to me, I can't keep even if I try.

Wu Weiwei spoke with great magnanimity.

However, only she herself knows whether she really thinks that way.

Hearing her words, Qingwen, who was standing next to the Lady of the Marquis, curled her lip and thought to herself that she was very hypocritical.

Lady Hou also looked at her thoughtfully.

After a moment, he laughed and said, "What a fine saying: 'To gain it is my fortune, to lose it is my fate.'"

Does this mean they're no longer going to compete or fight?

Liu's sharp eyes swept over her. Did Wu really not know the purpose of her summoning her today?

Or perhaps she was pretending not to know.

However, regardless of whether she was faking it or not, Wu Weiwei only needs to remember one thing.

She can promote her, and she can also make her gain nothing.

"Alright, as long as you take good care of Ting'er, I, as his mother, can rest assured."

Lady Hou did not reveal much.

But she knew that Wu Weiwei would definitely understand what she meant.

"Please rest assured, Madam Hou, I will certainly serve the young master well."

"Hmm, speaking of which, I heard you went to see the Qin mother and daughter. Did you know them before?"

Lady Hou glanced at her indifferently and asked casually.

Wu Weiwei's heart skipped a beat, but she did not lose her composure.

"Madam Hou, I heard from Songzi that the young master dislikes the cousin's relatives."

I also heard that they came for the memorial tablet of the young lady, so that they would not cause a scene at the entrance of the Marquis's mansion.

Only then did they manage to invite them to a teahouse to try and persuade them, but unfortunately, Weiwei was useless and couldn't find out who had written the letter to invite them..."

"That's all?"

Lady Hou looked at her suspiciously.

"Yes, it was just a few casual words!"

If Lady Hou does not believe me, you may send your loyal servant Qingwen to inquire.

When Wu Weiwei spoke of the loyal servant, she not only emphasized the words "loyal servant," but also glanced at Qingwen.

This glance made Qingwen's hand tremble as she poured tea, almost spilling it on the Lady of the Marquis.

"I'm sorry, Madam, I... Qingwen didn't mean it..."

"..."

Wu Weiwei bid farewell to Madam Hou and turned to walk out of the courtyard.

As he passed by Qingwen, he turned back and gave her a special look.

But she glared back at her angrily.

As soon as Wu Weiwei and her maid walked out of the courtyard gate, Qingwen immediately said:

"Madam, I think Wu Weiwei is just ungrateful."

You've already tried so hard to win her over, and she still doesn't know how to go along with you..."

"Shut up."

Lady Hou looked at Qingwen and sternly reprimanded her.

If she hadn't seen it today, she wouldn't have known that Qingwen was becoming increasingly unruly.

Not only was he careless in his work, but he even argued with an animal.

Thinking of the words "loyal servant" that Wu Weiwei had deliberately mentioned in front of her, Lady Hou looked at Qingwen with a puzzled expression.

Why did Wu Weiwei say that, and specifically mention Qingwen?

Could it be that my maidservant really did something shameful?
