Before the house was raided, the maidservant of the Prime Minister's residence absconded with t

After dinner, my second uncle and aunt went home after a short while.

She had already given the specially made poison pill to her second uncle, hoping the plan would go smoothly.

Xiuxiu and Shiliu are now officially her maids, so of course they stay in their house.

She let the two sisters choose their own rooms from the available rooms.

Xiuxiu and the others quickly chose two adjacent rooms in the side courtyard, so that they could stay close to each other and take care of one another.

Tao'er suggested they choose rooms closer to the main courtyard, but the two refused, saying that although the side courtyard was a little further away, the rooms were still quite nice.

Compared to the rooms they used to live in in the old house, it was like heaven and earth.

Here you can also have your own private room, fully furnished with all kinds of mahogany furniture.

The rooms were no different from those of the ladies in town, so what could they possibly be dissatisfied with?

Even the quilts and such were all new ones sent by Sister Tao'er through Miss Qingge.

Not only that, but they also sent each of them two new outfits, made of the finest materials, which they had never worn before.

There were also beaded jewelry and rouge/lipstick.

The two sisters felt like they had fallen into a paradise. That night, they couldn't hide their excitement and joy, but even more so, they felt grateful.

The two sisters hugged each other and cried for a long time, not because they were sad, but because they were so happy.

During this time, their aunt came to ask if they needed anything, and told them to tell her if they did.

Even my own mother has never been so thoughtful and considerate.

It wasn't that their mother didn't care about them, but rather that she was powerless to do so and couldn't afford to worry about anything else.

Thinking back to the days when they were bullied in the old house, and looking at themselves now, the two secretly vowed to repay their kindness.

If anyone dares to bully Sister Tao'er in the future, they will fight them to the death.

On the other side, Tao'er was telling the two children a story about a cat catching a mouse, and the two children were laughing non-stop.

"Sister Peach, why can't the cat ever catch the mouse?"

Ayan was very curious and couldn't understand why this was happening.

Huanhuan tilted her head and asked, "Yeah, why?"

Qingge made the bed and asked in confusion, "Miss, I'm also curious, why is that?"

When I was little, I thought cats were really good at catching mice!

Tao'er was taken aback at first, and after thinking for a while, she explained, "Because...because that cat is too stupid, and that mouse is too smart."

Therefore, the cat will never catch the mouse.

This explanation should be enough to fool the two kids!

She can't exactly say that the director arranged it that way on purpose!

Otherwise, if the mouse gets caught immediately, what's the point of the performance?

Ayan thought for a while, then nodded very seriously with his little face, "Yeah, I also think that cat is too stupid. If it can't catch this mouse, can't it just try another one?"

"If I were that cat, I would have switched to another mouse long ago."

Tao'er was clearly taken aback, shocked by Ayan's words. This little guy is indeed from the Xiao family; his intelligence is truly remarkable!

His future achievements will likely be no less than those of the prodigy Xiao Yi.

"Ayan is very smart."

However, both humans and animals have a competitive spirit.

That cat was probably unwilling to accept it!

That's why you persevered and refused to give up, right?

Tao'er wants to test Ayan.

Even if I'm unwilling, I can't let myself go hungry!

Starving to death would be a terrible waste.

Sister Tao'er, didn't you teach us that when facing a strong enemy, we should know how to avoid their sharp edge, conserve our energy, and then seize the opportunity to strike and take them down in one fell swoop?

To stubbornly resist is foolish!

Moreover, my uncle, the prince, also said that it is unwise to do something knowing it is impossible!

Tao'er was surprised that the little guy had remembered everything she had said before and even knew how to quote it.

"Ayan, you are such a smart little darling!"

"I'll treat you to a string of candied hawthorns as a reward when we go to town tomorrow!"

It's quite impressive that a five-year-old can say something like that.

This child's studies were worthwhile, and what Xie Jingchen taught him was truly useful.

"Thank you, Sister Tao'er!"

Huanhuan, standing nearby, immediately pouted and mumbled in her childish voice, "Huanhuan wants to eat candied hawthorns too!"

"Huanhuan has it too, she has it all."

"Tomorrow, your sister will take you to the county town and buy you candied hawthorns, okay?"

Looking at the two exquisitely beautiful little babies, Tao'er was overjoyed.

"Okay, Sister Tao'er is so nice!"

We can go to the county town tomorrow.

"Time to eat candied hawthorns!"

The two children cheered and jumped around on the bed, very excited.

"However, we have to get up early to travel tomorrow, so you all need to go to sleep."

Otherwise, if you can't get up tomorrow, don't blame me for not taking you to the county town!

The two children immediately lay down obediently, closed their eyes, and soon their soft breathing could be heard.

Children are tired from playing during the day, so they fall asleep quickly.

"Miss, the two young masters really fall asleep quickly; I'm afraid even ten breaths wouldn't be enough!"

Qingge looked at the two little masters on the bed, unable to stop smiling; she truly loved them.

"Kids are all like that; they fall asleep quickly when they have no worries."

Adults often have many worries, which makes it difficult for them to fall asleep.

"Have everything been arranged for Xiuxiu and Shiliu? Have all the things been sent?"

"Xiuxiu and the others have made all the arrangements and sent the items over."

They also expressed their gratitude to the girl a lot!

The girl was so kind to them!

Qingge was even a little envious.

"Xiuxiu and the others are all good girls, it's nothing for me to lend a hand."

My second uncle and aunt took good care of my parents in the past, and I should remember that kindness.

As long as they don't change in the future, I will make sure they live a good life.

But if they develop ulterior motives, then it all ends here!

"Qingge, remember this: those two are not my maids, and you cannot treat them as maids."

Don't make them feel uncomfortable.

They're not unreasonable people, and they certainly wouldn't harm me, so you don't need to worry.

She doesn't do charity work, but she will repay kindness.

"Miss, Qingge understands."

Qingge bowed her head and responded.

"Qingge, you're the same. You don't need to think of yourself as a maid. We didn't sign any contract."

And our relationship will become even closer; you'll be my second sister-in-law from now on!

"Peach teased."

"Girl, why are you dragging me into this all of a sudden?"

Qingge's cheeks turned red in no time.

"What's there to be ashamed of?"

In October of this year, your wedding with your second brother can be held.

Then you'll be living with my second brother.

You should have felt embarrassed back then!

"girl……

You're getting more and more absurd!

I'm not talking to you anymore, I'm going to sleep.

After Qingge finished speaking, she turned around and ran back to her room.

Tao'er smiled as she watched Qingge's figure disappear.

Soon, both of my older brothers will be getting married.

Currently, there is still no information about Huanhuan's background, and the background of her father also needs to be investigated.

Although my father said there was no need to investigate, it had been so many years, and he was afraid it was impossible to find out.

He didn't care anymore.

The most important thing right now is not these things, but finding a home-based tutor for Ayan.

She thought about it for a long time and felt uneasy about sending Ayan to school.

Why not hire a tutor at a high price to teach her at home? She's not short of money anyway.

Let's see if I'll have that good luck tomorrow.

Ugh, I'm sleepy, time for bed!

She bent down and kissed the two little ones on the forehead, then Tao'er fell asleep on the other side.

He quickly fell asleep.
