the Princess."Dugu Cheng responded, his back gradually fading into the distance.The evening market of Huashang was decorated with lanterns everywhere, the night scene was beautiful. Feng Lingxi and H..."Alright, stop arguing. You'll find out who lives here tonight."

Feng Lingxi looked at Lu Nian, "Big brother, you have good martial arts and eyesight. You should handle this tonight."

"Me..." Lu Nian pointed at himself, looking at Feng Lingxi's gaze fixed on him, this was unbearable.

How come his eyesight got better, how come his martial arts skills improved This is clearly just him being made to run errands.

"If you're not going, Big Uncle, then I'll go. Anyway, I'm so cute, I should just go take a look."

Feng Siqi's brain lit up, and she suddenly said, "I'll go fly a kite later. I'll throw the kite into the next house, so I can go look for it openly."

Feng Lingxi patted Siqi's head, "This is a good idea, let's do it."

"Otherwise, I'll just go there tonight. I figured even if it falls in like a kite, they might not let you in. They could find the stuff and throw it out!"

"It shouldn't be a problem, Siqi is just a child. She wouldn't be on guard against anyone, and besides, this is the capital city. There's no danger."

Wind Ling Xi agreed with what Dugu City said.

"Alright then, I'll go make the kite first."

Feng Siqi quickly ran back and saw Feng Siyu coming out at the door.

"Brother, quickly make a kite with me and throw it over to the neighbor's house. Later, we'll go see who it is."

As soon as Feng Siqi finished speaking, Feng Siyu glanced at the neighboring house and said lightly, "If you want to take a look next door, it's not difficult. Come with me."

Feng Siyu pulled Feng Siqi toward the next courtyard. Dugu City and Feng Lingxi followed behind. Seeing the siblings standing at the front door, they were puzzled. Just as they were about to ask, Feng Siyu went forward and said something to them. The guard ran inside and came out a while later, leading them in.

"I didn't expect Siyu to be so capable."

Lu Nian hooked her lips into a smile. "As expected of my nephew, just like me, smart and wise."

Feng Lingxi rolled her eyes. "Go keep an eye on him, but be careful."

Land Nian had just gone past when she saw Feng Siyu and Feng Siqi coming out, and they were both holding a bunch of food. Feng Siqi's eyes were almost closed from smiling, constantly thanking the person who gave them things.

"Mother."

"Come in and speak."

Feng Lingxi took the lead and walked in, Feng Siyu followed behind his mother, looking like a little boss, quite different from Feng Siqi.

The owner of the house next door was surnamed Qiao, but the owner wasn't home. When we went in, it was the butler who received us. He took us to the wall in the backyard. The weeds there were taller than me and hadn't been tended for a long time. The butler said that no one lived there, but I noticed that although the weeds were tall, there were signs of being trampled. I wanted to go look for something, but the butler offered to take us to see something new and gave us food, preventing us from looking around. He said it was to prevent the weeds from hurting us.

"He knows your identity"

This wind Si Yu's answer was indeed surprising, it seemed the assassin did enter that residence, but whether this steward really didn't know or pretended to not know remained unknown.

"How could you not know, the Lu residence is not a small family in the capital city, let alone living next door to this person. They must have already figured out our identities."

Feng Siyu's words made Lu Nian feel very wronged. He didn't live there often, so it was normal to not investigate.

It seems the assassin did indeed go over the wall to the next place.

"I'm afraid the master of this house isn't who Si Yu said he was," Du Gucheng said in a low voice. "This steward must have already realized we would come to their mansion and deliberately fabricated those words."

"That means we've been under surveillance all along."

Feng Lingxi and Dugu Cheng agreed; they were being watched, but who was watching them

"Miss."

The sound of Little Grass was heard. The housekeeper brought over Little Grass, who had changed into a female dress. However, the sight made Feng Lingxi both amused and helpless. The clothes were too long, making Little Grass walk extremely slowly. It felt like it took her an eternity to cover what normally would be a short distance.

"Miss, are you satisfied with this"

The steward stepped forward to take credit, while Dugu City and Lu Nian both stared at the little grass who was carefully making her way over. Most importantly, little grass's shoes were still the kind with a heel, causing her to walk rather unsteadily.

"Miss, can you please not wear that dress I can't walk in it at all."

Feng Lingxi walked past, seeing Xiaochao's eyes welling up with tears. She bent down, lifted her skirt, calculated the distance, and with a rip, tore off the excess fabric from the hem of her dress. Lu Nian watching on the side swallowed nervously.

"How about a short one"

Then you come yourself.

Xiao Cao looked at her own cumbersome long skirt, tugged it hard, and tore off the hem below her knees. It felt cool, and a pair of white legs appeared before everyone, "This is much better."

"That doesn't seem quite right."

Although these legs are long and fair, they are not allowed in this era.

Lu Nian swallowed nervously, looking at the clear-eyed girl in front of him. This was really simple and crude. Who was this girl

"But I'm still not used to wearing women's clothing, it really gets in the way, you know It hinders me."

"Maybe I should just wear men's clothing instead."

"Butler, please change a few sets of clothes for Xiaocǎo according to her request, but don't let her arms or legs be exposed."

The little blade of grass immediately beamed, "Thank you, miss, you are the best."

"Go now."

Little Grass hurriedly dragged the steward away, this rude act made Lu Nian and Dugu City present couldn't help but stare.

"Sister, who is this girl, how come she is like this..."

"Huh"

Feng Lingxi raised an eyebrow, and Lu Nian hurriedly changed her words, "So...so cute." This rough woman, she really didn't know how her sister doted on her so much. Sure enough, those who followed her sister around weren't normal people either.

"She will stay by my side from now on. Her name is Xiaochao, she was left to me by my mother. You are not allowed to bully her."

"How dare I bully her" Looking at his protective stance, he knew this was another person he couldn't provoke, let alone speak to.

He's really unlucky, can't there be a gentle, graceful, and sweet soft girl around his sister

This is too difficult!

"Mother, my grandmother left her maidservant to you, so can she follow me afterwards"

As soon as Feng Siyu spoke, Lu Nian widened his eyes and looked at Feng Siyu with disbelief. "Are you kidding me You don't mean to tell me you like this type of maidservant, do you"

"Uncle, Xiaocao isn't a maid. I let her follow me because I think she's very capable and I want to learn from her."

"Amazing I really don't see it at all." Lu Nian said with disdain, "Could she possibly be better than me That's ridiculous."

Superficial.

Feng Siyu let out a cold snort. "No wonder you still can't find a woman to this day."

“I…”

Lu Nian's heart ached. Didn't he have any problem with his vision for finding a wifeo her room and reflected on herself. She felt that she had really failed. Even Xiao Li was willing to be taken in by Wan'er, but not her. In Wan'er's heart, how much did she reject her as a motherFeng...
