Huaer asked the demon girl Ruonan for needle and thread to continue making clothes, but the demon girl Ruonan wanted to brainwash Huaer. The two refused to give in and were in a stalemate for a while...
“Boom boom boom…”
Just then, there was a knock on the courtyard door, breaking the deadlock between the two men, and they both looked up at the door.
"Is son-in-law back?" Hua'er's little face lit up with joy, and she ran to the door happily to open it.
"How could it be him? Does he need to knock on the door when he returns home?!" The seductive woman Ruonan shook her head without hesitation.
"Ah, that's right. You need to knock on the door when your son-in-law comes home." After being reminded, Hua'er reacted immediately, stopped, looked at the door in confusion, and asked vigilantly, "Who is it?"
"Hehe, guess?" An uncontrollable laugh came from outside, said in a pinched throat.
"Qiu'er, it's Qiu'er, right..." Hua'er became excited when she heard the voice outside.
With a creak, the courtyard door was pushed open. A little girl with two buns appeared at the door. She was wearing a hairpin, skirt and jacket, and a rabbit fur cloak. She looked at Hua'er with a giggle, "Hehe, Sister Hua'er is amazing. You can recognize my voice even when I pinch my throat to speak."
"Qiu'er, it's really you."
When Huaer saw the little girl, she became even more excited. She was not sure just now, but how could she not be excited now that she saw the person
Suddenly, the two of them trotted over and hugged each other, so excited that the enchanting woman Ruonan beside them rolled her eyes.
"Aren't you in the capital serving the young lady? Why are you here? Did you make a mistake in Fuli and sneak here?"
After Huaer calmed down from the excitement, she asked quickly.
"Sister Hua'er, what are you thinking about? Why would I sneak here? I came here with the young lady."
Qiu Er shook her head vigorously.
"The young lady is here too, is that true? Woo woo woo, Qiu'er you are not lying to me, are you? I think about the young lady in my dreams."
When Huaer heard that the young lady was coming, she screamed in surprise and excitement, and tears were almost coming out of her eyes.
"Why would I lie to you? Miss has just arrived at Taohuaji, and Sister Qin'er is directing everyone to pack up and settle down in the largest house in Zhennan." Qiu'er replied.
"The young lady is really here, wuwuwu... Hurry up, Qiu'er, take me to meet the young lady." Hua'er excitedly pulled Qiu'er and was about to walk out.
"Hehe, Sister Hua'er, don't worry, we just arrived too. The lady asked me to come over and tell you first, pack up, someone will come to pick you up and take you to the big house in Zhennan later, this yard is too small."
Qiu Er said with a smile.
"Qiu'er, I have taken care of you in the capital. Why didn't you tell me earlier so that I could go and greet the young lady? It doesn't make sense for the young lady to wait for a maid like me." Hua'er complained.
"Sister Huaer, you misunderstood me. How could I forget how good you have been to me? It was the young lady who didn't let us tell you in advance." Qiuer pulled Huaer's hands and shook them hard, explaining repeatedly.
"Ah, Miss didn't let you tell us in advance? Why?" Huaer asked puzzled.
"Humph, you are so stupid, Hua'er. I didn't tell you in advance and came here suddenly. It's obvious that I don't trust you. I'm doing a surprise inspection."
The enchantress Ruonan spoke leisurely, with a hint of sarcasm in her eyes, mocking the powerful female protagonist for being unkind.
"Ah?" Hua'er's face turned pale, but she turned her head and glared at the demon Ruonan the next second, "Ruonan, you are talking nonsense. It's not like that. The young lady trusts me the most. Stop talking nonsense."
Qiu'er seemed to have just seen the demon Ruonan, and immediately became alert and asked, "Sister Hua'er, who is this woman, and why is she here?"
"Her name is Ruonan. It's hard to tell her background right now. Her father works for the Zhejiang Army, which is managed by my uncle. She helps me cook."
Huaer explained.
"Oh, so it's the maid and the cook that the son-in-law is recruiting. Humph, you can tell at first glance that they are wild girls from the country. They have no rules and gossip about their master behind his back. If they were in the mansion, such gossipers would have been beaten half to death and sold." Qiu'er snorted at the witch Ruonan, and was extremely dissatisfied with what she had just said.
"Hehe, the maids and cooks he hired? He can't even afford them." The seductive woman Ruonan couldn't help but giggle when she heard that.
"Toad is just bragging... Sister Hua'er, is there something wrong with her?" Qiu'er approached Hua'er, pointed at her head, and asked in a low voice. A maid and a cook dared to talk behind her master's back, saying that the son-in-law couldn't afford it, and laughed all the time. She couldn't help but wonder if there was something wrong with her brain...
Upon hearing this, the enchantress Ruonan couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, and she could hardly keep the smile on her face. However, considering that Qiu'er was just a little girl and was familiar with Hua'er, she didn't get angry.
Hua'er couldn't help but giggle when she heard that, "No, that's just how she is."
"Hey, little girl, you said I was gossiping. Well, I have to ask you, why did your master come here suddenly without telling Hua'er in advance?" The seductive girl Ruonan stuck out her lips at Qiu'er and asked slowly.
"Who do you think you are? Why should I tell you? Besides, my young lady is the master and can do whatever she wants." Qiu'er snorted. She was very dissatisfied with the attitude of the witch Ruonan and did not tolerate her at all.
"Okay, Qiu'er, you don't have to tell her, but you can at least tell me." Hua'er pulled Qiu'er's little hand.
"Well, Sister Hua'er is of course different. The young lady didn't let you know in advance because she wanted to give the young master a surprise. The young lady and all of us wanted to see the young master's surprised look, so we prepared for a long time. But we didn't expect that we would find out that the young master went to Yiwu to recruit soldiers when we arrived at Taohuaji..."
Qiu'er said with a look of regret.
"Oh, that's such a pity." Hua'er also felt sorry after hearing this, "The young lady must be very disappointed."
"It's OK. Miss said that we can give you a surprise when you come back from Yiwu to recruit soldiers." Qiu'er said. Then she remembered something and said quickly, "Oh, by the way, Sister Hua'er, you must keep it a secret. Don't tell anyone about Miss's news. I will give you a surprise when you come back."
"Don't worry." Hua'er patted her chest vigorously, "I will definitely not hold you back."
"And your little cook, you have to keep it a secret too, otherwise you'll be in trouble." Qiu'er looked at the enchantress Ruonan and warned her.
"Hmph." The evil woman Ruonan rolled her eyes and gave her a nasal sound.
"Don't worry, Qiu'er, I will tell her." Hua'er quickly assured Qiu'er.
"Yes, I am most relieved, Sister Huaer. I am about to go back, Sister Huaer, there are many things to do in the new house." Qiuer said as she was about to leave.
"I'll go with you to help." Hua'er wanted to go with them.
"No need, Sister Huaer. We are a lot of people here. You should pack up quickly and we will come to pick you up later. The lady has reserved a big house for you." Qiuer shook her head and said enviously.
