Shu Yu listened and welcomed Mr. Hou into the door.

She has been in the capital for five or six days. In addition to taking Xiao Song Le to meet Aunt Hong on the first day, she also visited several familiar families in the Yao and Qi families.

But she didn't go to Wan's house, mainly because she wasn't familiar with Mr. Wan and didn't have much friendship, so it wasn't appropriate to visit him.

And the Hou family is not the mistress of the Wan family, she is the concubine. Shu Yu doesn't know the situation of the Wan family, nor does he know her situation in the house, and is afraid that coming to the house rashly will bring trouble to her.

So someone sent a message to Mrs. Hou, saying that she had come to the capital and was in the small courtyard in the south of the city.

She gave her address. If Aunt Hou has nothing to do, she can come here to find her.

Mrs. Hou hadn't come in the past few days, so Shu Yu thought it was inconvenient for her. Unexpectedly, she was afraid that coming would disturb Meng Yunzheng's study.

Shu Yu led people to the main room and sat down, and asked Ying Xi to pour a cup of tea. Then he said, "Speaking of which, we haven't seen each other for more than four years. I didn't expect you to come to the capital. That's fine, otherwise.

We can't meet today either. Did you receive the letter I sent you years ago?"

"Received, congratulations, we have been engaged for several years, and finally we are willing to get married." Ms. Hou teased a few words, "I told my adults about this. When they heard that it was you getting married, they didn't stop me.

Since he wants to go back to his hometown to have a look, it’s okay to go for a walk. But he can’t leave the capital, so someone will send me back to Dong’an Mansion when the time comes.”

"It seems that Mr. Wan is very kind to you."

Speaking of this, Mr. Hou lowered his head slightly and smiled slowly.

Shu Yu was surprised, looking at the amorous look in Hou's lowered eyes, it was actually much stronger than before in the Shu family.

How should I put it? It’s that Hou is a beauty herself. She can be beautiful in front of her, but she always carries it on intentionally or unintentionally. Now the beauty exposed in her bones has begun to become unscrupulous.

It seems... I don't have so many worries anymore.

Sure enough, Mrs. Hou said in a low voice, "My lord has been very kind to me. I am living a very comfortable life now. Compared with the Shu family, it is not an exaggeration to say that I have fallen into a lucky nest."

In the Shu family, she is also a concubine. In the eyes of others, she is nothing more than an Israeli servant.

But even though you have such a role, you are still pressured so that you don't dare to be too public. Because if you are too public, your death will come.

Mrs. Hou was murdered several times in the Shu family. When she gave birth, her daughter was almost killed. For herself and her daughter, she usually kept a low profile and tried to dress as plainly as possible.

But the result of doing this is that she will be rejected by her husband, who thinks that she does not understand the style.

So no matter what Ms. Hou did, it was wrong. If she was too beautiful, her wife would be unhappy. If she was not beautiful, her husband would be uninterested. She was living in a tight spot and struggling.

But it's completely different in Wanjia.

"The Wan family's backyard is very clean. After my lord's first wife passed away, he did not remarry. There are only two concubines in the backyard. They are both honest and dutiful. They have followed the lord a long time ago. Now they are older.

, I just stay in my small yard and plant flowers, occasionally go out to go shopping and buy things, and basically don’t do it in front of adults.”

Shu Yu, "So now you are in charge of Wanjia's middle fund?"

"That's not the case." Mrs. Hou shook her head, "There is a housekeeper in the house and a nanny who understands this kind of thing. But you have taught me how to read the accounts and occasionally let me check the accounts."
