"Miss, Miss..." At this time, a cautious voice came from behind.

Cheng Jiuyuan glanced at Chun Xing who was standing in the distance through the mirror and did not answer.

Chun Xing could only describe her feeling as shocked.

The Pei family is indeed the richest family. Everything they have done along the way has demonstrated the wealth of the Pei family.

She also knew that Aunt Zhou sent her here to look after the Second Young Miss, but when she entered the Pei Mansion, she felt isolated and helpless, and the Second Young Miss no longer trusted and relied on her as before.

Now the Pei Mansion has sent two maids. After this, what status will she have?

"Miss, let me help you bathe. I am used to serving you..."

Before she could finish, Cheng Jiuyuan interrupted her: "No need."

Hibiscus and Indigo looked at each other and they also realized that the girl didn't like Chun Xing.

Chun Xing was at a loss for words. "Miss, what did I do wrong to make you angry?"

"Chun Xing, what good did Aunt Zhou promise you?"

Chun Xing immediately knelt on the ground: "I don't understand what the young lady is talking about. The Prime Minister and the aunt just asked me to take good care of the young lady."

Cheng Jiuyuan stood up. She was clearly only seven years old, but her eyes shocked Chun Xing so much that she didn't dare to look up.

"Chun Xing, you know, this is Gusu Pei Mansion. I have countless ways to make you disappear." Cheng Jiuyuan's voice was flat, as if he was talking about something insignificant.

"Miss, please spare me! Miss, please spare me!" Chun Xing kowtowed continuously.

Hibiscus and Isatis both had shocked expressions on their faces.

Cheng Jiuyuan looked down at her. In fact, Chun Xing didn't do anything to hurt her substantially in her previous life. She just told Zhou about her every word and action, and kept saying good things about Zhou and her daughter in front of her.

"You continue to communicate with Zhou, but I have the final say on the content of the letter."

Chun Xing's eyes were full of shock.

It turns out that the second girl knows everything.

She had always thought that the second girl was the easiest to deceive, but it turned out that all of them had been wrong.

"If you behave yourself, your life will be safe."

Chun Xing gritted her teeth and kowtowed: "I will follow your instructions, young lady."

What could she do? She thought she was easy to control and it would be easy for her to help Aunt Zhou pass on a message. But she didn't expect that the second girl was pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger, and was so cruel and ruthless.

She was just a little maid who just wanted to save her life.

"Go and tell Zhou that I fell ill as soon as I arrived in Gusu and couldn't get out of bed." After saying this, Cheng Jiuyuan didn't even look at Chun Xing and sat back in front of the dressing mirror.

Mu Jin and Song Lan continued to help her with her hair, but they were more cautious.

"Yes, I'll go right away." Chun Xing got up tremblingly and quickly left the room.

Cheng Jiuyuan lowered his eyes.

Without the support of the dozen or so shops of the Pei family, the housekeeper Zhou would definitely be overwhelmed.

In addition, Cheng Yunge will definitely try his best to get her back to Beijing as soon as possible.

The New Year is just over a month away, and they will definitely ask Cheng Zongyang to send someone to pick her up and bring her back to Beijing.

Since she has left the capital, she has the final say on when to return.

She will definitely go back, otherwise how can she take revenge?

Once she has the ability to protect herself, she will return to Beijing on her own without the Cheng family coming to pick her up.

However, the ability to protect oneself is not so easy.

After all, her enemies are not only the Cheng family, but also the third prince Chu Ze, and even... Northern Qi!

She looked in the mirror and saw that the two girls were so frightened by what she had just done that they held their breath. She immediately smiled and said, "Do you want to avenge your parents?"

The two girls looked at each other and knelt down without hesitation.

"If you can redress the injustice for my parents, I and my sister will follow you till death!"

Their lives were saved by the Pei Mansion, so they were naturally grateful to him and would serve this cousin wholeheartedly.

But if anyone can help the two sisters to get revenge, they will do it even if it means going through fire and water.

"Get up, and tell me everything you know about Magistrate Weng."

I saw that the hair had been removed and the hot water had been delivered.

Cheng Jiuyuan stood up and stretched out his hands.

While the two maids were helping her bathe, they were whispering about the evil deeds of the county magistrate's family.

After all, I am still young and what I can find is limited.

All we know is that County Magistrate Weng is greedy for money and lustful, and he has more than ten concubines at home, not to mention the maids and decent women he has abused.

He had countless illegitimate children in his family, and many of them were given away by him to his colleagues or wealthy businessmen.

Weng Ruyi was his legitimate daughter, and was also used by him to win over the Pei family.

The Weng family's huge network of relationships covers the entire Gusu.

This Weng Youcai is simply the local emperor here.

"Bullying men and women, collusion between officials and businessmen, and taking human lives are truly lawless." Cheng Jiuyuan closed his eyes, soaked in the warm water, and sighed slowly.

Hibiscus' eyes were red, while Isobella turned her back to wipe her tears.

They were really desperate and tried every possible means.

No matter how powerful the girl is, she is just a seven-year-old child. How can she fight against the cunning and treacherous Weng Youcai?

"Girl, do you want to add hot water?" Mu Jin asked in a low voice.

"No need."

Cheng Jiuyuan opened her eyes and stood up.

No matter how many in-laws he has, if Weng Youcai's crime is serious enough and the evidence is conclusive, no one will dare to save him.

Weng Youcai is Chu Ze's man, but he is not high enough to hold such an official position, so how dare we investigate him?

What if it offends the majesty of heaven?

Having made up his mind, Cheng Jiuyuan smiled at the sisters with sad looks on their faces.

"My two sisters, don't be so depressed all day long. Your parents in heaven would definitely want you to be happy. I told you that I would help you get revenge, and I will."

The Weng family owes a lot of blood feuds!

Although Hibiscus and Indigo knew that the girl was trying to comfort them, they were also touched.

"Thank you, young lady. I will help you twist your hair."

Cheng Jiuyuan was half lying on the couch, wearing only her middle shirt, letting Mu Jin help her wipe her hair.

The charcoal fire was burning brightly in the house, making it warm.

Cheng Jiuyuan closed his eyes and thought about his revenge plan.

Mu Jin gently wiped her long hair. When it was half dry, she applied some hair oil. Her long hair was like a waterfall, with a faint fragrance.

Song Lan covered Cheng Jiuyuan with a thin blanket and went to prepare clothes for her to wear at the family dinner in the evening.

The room was quiet and warm.

The room was so warm and comfortable that Cheng Jiuyuan actually fell asleep.

But she slept quite restlessly.

"Except for Weng Ruyi, the 130 members of the Pei family had already become ghosts three years ago..."

Cheng Jiuyuan suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes full of hatred.

Mu Jin whispered, "Girl, are you having a nightmare?"

Cheng Jiuyuan rubbed his brows and asked, "What time is it?"

At this time, Song Lan pushed the door open and walked in.

"Miss, the family dinner is about to begin. The servants will help you change your clothes."

At the family dinner, Weng Ruyi would naturally be present.

Weng Ruyi killed her grandfather's family and helped Chu Ze deceive her for three whole years!

"Change your clothes."
