"Oh, that's a coincidence."

Tang Manru was not as surprised as Xiaoxiang showed, and began to carefully look at Xibao's body again.

Xibao felt a little uncomfortable when she saw her. He guessed her purpose of coming and saluted generously: "Madam, please stay for a moment. I will take off my makeup first and then come back."

Tang Manru then went back to her private room to wait.

Xibao and others returned to the backstage, and the girls came up to talk curiously.

"Xibao, you are so lucky to be so appreciated by Mrs. Futai and even have tea with you alone."

Xibao just smiled and said nothing. She vaguely remembered Tang Manru's temperament and would never come here to listen to a show for her own selfish desires.

She is just like last time, if there is nothing important, she will never come.

It was Su Yawang who knew Xibao well. Seeing that she remained silent, he sent the girls away first.

"Madam is still waiting outside. You are wasting time by surrounding Xibao like this. What will you do if Madam blames you? Why don't you quickly remove your makeup so that you can go back early to honor Master?"

As soon as the girls left, Su Yawang came over and asked softly: "Xibao, are you worried that your wife has other motives for keeping you here?"

As she spoke, she talked to herself: "But she stepped forward to help you deal with those rogues, and even promised to protect you. It shouldn't be detrimental to you, right?"

Xibao had already taken off her makeup and changed back into her own clothes. She didn't want to worry Su Yawang, so she pretended to be relaxed and said to her: "Don't worry, what can happen? You should leave quickly, don't you say

Tonight is Uncle Tian's birthday? His old man is waiting for you to go back and cut longevity peaches."

As she spoke, she took out the gift she had prepared in advance from the table, handed it to Su Yawang and said, "I originally wanted to go and celebrate Uncle Tian's birthday in person, so I have to ask you to do it for me."

Su Yawang understood that there was nothing she could do about it, so she took the gift for Tian Wuji, said a few words to tell her to be careful, and then followed the people from Shang Ya's class.

Xibao then suppressed his smile and walked to Tang Manru's private room alone.

She vaguely guessed that Tang Manru had doubts about her life experience.

After all, she has looked more and more like Mrs. Chiang ever since she was twelve years old.

Dancing roles are all dressed up. Although the face is painted with makeup and heavy makeup, it is still easier to distinguish the true appearance compared to pure roles.

Tang Manru and Mrs. Jiang are so familiar that if you can't tell it once, you won't be able to tell it after watching the show several times.

She didn't choose to get to know Tang Manru right away, not because she didn't trust her, but because she didn't understand her husband, Mr. Song.

She knew very well that although Tang Manru was a woman of great wisdom, the reason that could support her today's success was Master Song behind her.

The position of Futai in Songjiang Prefecture was vacant decades ago. Now the world is run by Yuwen Shike. Lord Song can be sent here as an official, so his relationship with Yuwen Shike will not be bad.

If she rashly recognizes Tang Manru at this time, it is still unclear whether it will be a blessing or a curse.

But if Tang Manru takes the initiative to recognize each other later, will she cooperate?

It has been six years. Maybe Yuwen Shike has already forgotten the Chiang family back then. Can old friends meet again and reminisce about the past?

Thinking about these things, Xibao's steps became heavier and he unknowingly entered Tang Manru's private room.

The emblica jasmine tea has been served, and the lingering fragrance lingers in the tea cup in front of Tang Manru.

"I've kept you waiting for a long time, madam. Please bear with me."

Xibao went in as if nothing happened, did not sit down directly, and waited for Tang Manru to speak.

Xiaoxiang couldn't stand her, because she really kept Tang Manru waiting for a long time.

"You know, I'm just taking off my makeup, taking my time."

"Xiao Xiang!"

Tang Manru gave Xiaoxiang a look and motioned for her to go out first.

Xiaoxiang refused to give up and still stood there and said: "The slave has gone out, who is waiting for the wife inside?"

"How presumptuous! Without you to serve me, I can't drink tea? Can't I talk?"

Xiaoxiang was immediately speechless, glanced at Xibao displeased, and walked out coquettishly.

Xibao discovered the clue from her eyes.

Xiaoxiang is definitely not Tang Manru’s confidant.

"I told you to watch a joke."

Tang Manru took the initiative to pour tea for Xibao, "The adults in our family are always worried that it is inconvenient for me to go out alone, so they often send people to follow me to serve me, as if I have become a useless person if I have no one to take care of me."

As she spoke, she glanced at Xibao specifically, with a hidden mystery in her eyes.

Xibao immediately understood what he meant and hurriedly took the teapot and poured tea himself.

"Madam and your Excellency are so loving that they are a match made in heaven. We mortals can't even envy you, so how can we dare to laugh at you?"

Xibao said, standing up again to add tea to Tang Manru, but looking behind the door curtain out of the corner of his eye.

She had already noticed that there was an eye peeking in from the edge of the curtain, and now she deliberately smiled and said: "Madam came to me, could it be that she was bullying me because I was young and didn't understand these things between men and women, and she wanted to show it off in front of me?"

Is it from love?"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Tang Manru liked Xibao's cleverness and immediately laughed and said: "How can it be possible? Actually, it's the first day of the lunar month next month when an adult of my family celebrates his birthday, and I would like to invite Boss Liu to come over and sing a song to help the fun."

"Singing party?"

Xibao finished pouring the tea and sat back on the chair. He glanced at the door curtain and was still peeping.

She chuckled and said: "It's not that I want to refute Madam's reputation. I have already booked it on the first day of next month. You are too late."

"Too late?"

Tang Manru looked shocked, and quickly twisted her handkerchief and said, "How about I send someone to talk to him and ask him to let you out? I want to see who dares not to give Mr. Futai face?"

Xibao shook his head repeatedly and said: "There is no need to go to such trouble and pay some money. As long as Madam is willing to tell me more stories about the love between you and your Excellency, I will go and congratulate you on your birthday. We opera singers

, I just like hearing this.”

"Ahahaha!"

Tang Manru was amused by Xibao's wit, and immediately laughed and said, "What's so difficult about this?"

As she said this, she started telling Xibao that because it involved matters in the house, the unmarried girl couldn't listen to it, let alone the soldiers outside.

The hand outside the door lowered the curtain not long after, and Xibao heard clearly from inside that the person at the door had gone away.

When she turned around again, Tang Manru's expression had turned cold. There was nothing else in her mouth about sexual relations between men and women. She then took out a southern treasure from her sleeve. The top page happened to be Xibao's.

Exclusive interview with Zhang.

"When I was young, I had my best friend. Before we got married, we were as good as one person. In my heart, no one in the world can compare with her."

Xibao sat quietly on the chair, and she saw tears in Tang Manru's eyes.
