Chapter 44

Zhang Anchu understood that he was virtuous and talented, but he was not a kind person.

Aunt Bai thought that Zhang Anchu was soft-hearted and kind-hearted, so she added another sentence: "I know you are kind-hearted, but sometimes, if you have no means or talent, others will only look down on you, so how can they respect you?"

"Even if you are the master, the servants will play around with you. Maybe you understand Auntie's painstaking efforts?" Aunt Bai said helplessly. She didn't want Zhang Anchu to continue like this. When the time comes, he will be sold and still count the money for others. .

Zhang Anchu lowered her head. She felt that there was nothing wrong with living a life without a conscience.

It can be seen that Aunt Bai was anxious, and what she said made sense, it was not as extreme as that day in the carriage, so she nodded and replied: "Auntie, I know how powerful it is."

She doesn't agree with Aunt Bai, but she gets inspiration from her words, even if she wants to have a clear conscience, she must have the ability to protect herself.

Aunt Bai nodded in satisfaction, she finally said nothing in vain, her mouth was dry.

Aunt Bai left at ease, and when she left, she was in a great mood.

Zhang Anchu was left alone to meditate on the bed. The nanny came in and saw her dazed, and asked, "Miss San?"

"Huh?" Zhang Anchu came back to his senses, lifted the quilt, got up from the bed, and looked at his bookshelf.

Seeing that she was fine, the nanny let it go, and simply started sewing.

Zhang Anchu picked and selected, took out a copy of "36 Strategies", and put it on the desk to study.

I bought this book at a bookstore during the Chinese New Year last year, but after reading it, I felt that I couldn't understand it, so I put it on the shelf to collect dust.

Listening to Aunt Bai's words today, I feel that this book may be useful. Let's read it for now, and if I don't understand it, I have to memorize it by heart. Maybe I can understand it in the future.

The prince returned to the guest room from the garden, in a good mood, humming a ditty, shaking his head, the third prince saw him like this when he came in.

"Brother, today's errands have been completed, and we can prepare to return to the capital." The third prince didn't want to stay here for too long, and he didn't want the prince to stay in the Hou's mansion.

The prince did things absurdly, if he lost his sense of propriety and made a joke, it would not be his face that would be lost.

The face of the royal family will also be lost.

What's more, the father asked him to follow the prince, if something happened again, he would be punished.

He worked so hard to do errands, but in the end he didn't get a good word. He didn't want to be implicated by the prince.

"So soon?" The prince felt a little regretful. He had just finished what he said yesterday. Since he promised the third prince, he couldn't break his promise.

"Well, how are your preparations?" The third prince was asking if he had seen the third lady of the Hou Mansion, and if so, he would leave.

Thinking of what happened today, the prince was in a good mood, and said: "I am so lucky to be able to see the beauty again!"

After finishing speaking, he stood up and said regretfully, "It's a pity that I couldn't say a few words to the beauty, and I didn't get a boudoir name, and I didn't say goodbye to her..."

The third prince felt ridiculed in his heart, thinking to himself, she really is a woman who loves vanity, and dares to have a private meeting with a foreigner.

Marrying this kind of woman into the backyard is a great disaster.

The third prince thought so in his heart, but he didn't say it out loud, and said to the prince: "Then let's leave today."

"Don't be so anxious, we have to leave, how can the Marquis of Beiping not give us a ride? How can we not go to the banquet?" The prince preached, secretly scolding the third prince for being too impatient, and he still wants to have a drink with his future father-in-law !
The third prince was speechless, so he didn't speak any more.

At this moment, the eldest son Zhang Hongye came.

"See Your Highness the Crown Prince, and see the Third Prince." Zhang Hongye did not forget the rules, and saluted the two of them.

"It's eldest brother..." His Royal Highness was about to speak, but when he saw the third prince glaring at him, he had no choice but to change his words and said: "It's eldest son Hongye, come and sit down."

"His Royal Highness, my father has already known that the errands assigned by the emperor have been completed, so he thought of having a banquet to relieve his fatigue, and please His Royal Highness and the third prince to show respect." Zhang Hongye sat down and said to the prince and the third prince.

The prince clicked his tongue, and said to the third prince: "Look, what the prince said, the Prince of Peiping knows how to be polite."

"Let's go, let's go quickly, don't make Beiping wait in a hurry!" The prince pushed the third prince, who had no choice but to go to the banquet.

The banquet will be held later, but the Marquis of Beiping specially invited a theater troupe to entertain the two of them.

Several people sat down, the prince was fascinated by it, the third prince pushed him and told him to speak quickly.

But the prince was impatient, knocked off his hand, and listened to the play on his own.

The third prince had no choice but to say to Beipinghou: "Tomorrow, the prince and I will leave."

"Why are you in such a hurry?" Beiping Hou looked at the stage as if he didn't know, regretful, and said, "I don't know that you are leaving tomorrow, and the theater troupe is here to relieve His Royal Highness and the Third Prince from their fatigue." Yes, but now it's a bit like a farewell, it's really not polite."

How could the Hou of Beiping not know that the two of them were about to leave, Zhang Hongye was on an errand with the third prince, and he knew where the matter was going.

"Peking Hou, why should we care about these things between us, it's good if you have this heart." Seeing Beiping Hou's embarrassed look, the prince said.

"His Royal Highness Xie doesn't care about it." Beipinghou said with cupped hands, he glanced at the third prince, stroking his beard with his hands, and valued this third prince more and more.

The third prince's maid, Bai Lu, would stay in the guest room on weekdays.

After all, the third prince came out to run an errand, bringing his maid with him, which was not as good as it should be, so he could only hide behind others.

She also knew that she was about to leave the Hou Mansion, and she also had something in her heart, which was extremely entangled.

She didn't know if she wanted to find her mother's twin sisters.

She has been in the Hou's mansion for many days, but she has always felt afraid in her heart, and she can't say what she is afraid of.

Thinking, if you don't take a look this time, it may be difficult to have a chance in the future.

She still doesn't know what her mother looks like. After all, her mother has passed away since she was a child, and she was brought up by the bustard.

And my mother's twin sisters should also look the same...

They look the same, but they are not mothers either.

The heart is very complicated, lying on the beam, pillowing his hands, looking at the roof, feeling tangled in his heart.

"Forget it, let's go."

Egret muttered, getting down from the beam, she didn't want to have any regrets!
She went to the backyard. After so long, she also knew that there was only one aunt named Bai in this backyard.

After finding her courtyard, she waited in the dark for an opportunity.

Wait for the sky to completely darken before entering the room.

Aunt Bai was tidying up in Zhang Hongze's room, and at the end of the day, it was a mess again.

The ground was full of sawdust, and she didn't know what Zhang Hongze was doing. She shook her head, thinking to herself, Mrs. Hou promised to invite her husband. It has been several days now, why hasn't there been a letter yet?

"Lift up your feet." Aunt Bai said after sweeping to Zhang Hongze's feet.

Zhang Hongze raised his foot obediently, but his hand didn't stop, he was sharpening a wooden stick.
