Chapter 12 Let Them Be Proud First
Chapter 12

Old Madam Shen nodded continuously, and the mother and son discussed for a while before Shen Ling returned to his own yard.

Gu Nianchu returned to Haitang Garden, and Nanny Tian asked her to have a good sleep first. When Gu Nianchu wanted to go out, she was stopped by her: "Miss, the Marquis' Mansion is eyeing you covetously now. If they knew that you were going to see Master Changhuan, who knows what tricks they might use. You should stay calm first, there is still a long way to go."

Gu Nianchu knew that what Nanny Tian said made sense, but she just couldn't help wanting to see her child.

Regardless of whether Chang Huan is that child or not, she treats Chang Huan as her own child.

"Miss, His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi has sent someone."

Dong Yu came in to report, and Gu Nianchu was a little excited: "Please come in."

The person sent by the King of Qi was a girl in black clothes. She bowed deeply to Gu Nianchu and said, "Your servant Han Chan greets you, young lady."

"His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi asked me to tell you that the child is safe and sound. Please rest assured."

Han Chan's words made Gu Nianchu cry with joy. He asked Dong Yu to help Han Chan up and rewarded her with a purse containing a silver ingot weighing ten taels. Han Chan did not dare to accept it.

"Miss, His Highness has sent this servant to stay with you from now on. If you need anything, you can always use me."

Han Chan knelt down and kowtowed to Gu Nianchu, who was stunned: "Why?"

"Miss, His Highness said that you are in a wolf's den, surrounded by tigers and wolves. I have been learning martial arts since I was young, please keep me by your side, I can protect you. This is my personal contract, please accept it."

Han Chan took out the indenture from her bosom and presented it with both hands: "From now on, Han Chan belongs to you, young lady, and I will be loyal to you forever."

Gu Nianchu took the indenture from Han Chan and handed it to Nanny Tian: "Nanny Tian, ​​please accept it."

Nanny Tian and several maids were a little confused.

But since this is the young lady's order, I will accept it.

"Dong Yu, take Han Chan to settle down."

Gu Nianchu asked Dong Yu to take the person away first. Nanny Tian asked in confusion, "Miss, why did you want to keep Han Chan? Why did His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi send you a maid?"

Gu Nianchu smiled faintly: "How can I not accept the kindness of His Royal Highness Prince Qi? This Han Chan is very skilled in martial arts. If he stays by our side, we won't have to worry about being defeated no matter what we do."

Han Chan is the secret guard of King Qi.

Those who can become secret guards have all made their way through blood and are absolutely loyal.

"Miss, you and His Royal Highness Prince Qi..."

Nanny Tian didn't dare to say the rest, but Gu Nianchu didn't care: "Five years ago, he promised me that I could ask him for help when I regretted it. I gave him the token last night."

Nanny Tian was somewhat helpless. Five years ago, the Prince of Qi and her young lady were a perfect match, but the Queen was afraid that if the Prince of Qi married the daughter of the General's Mansion, it would pose a threat to the Crown Prince's position, so she persuaded the Emperor to grant Gu Nianchu the marriage.

The Gu family originally didn't want their daughter to enter the royal family, so they happily married their daughter off.

Later, something happened on the wedding night. The Gu family learned that their son-in-law had lost his life in order to protect their daughter. Although they felt sorry for their daughter having to live a widow's life, they supported Shen Ling very much and tried their best to make up for it.

But I never expected that this marquis's mansion would be so dirty.

Gu Nianchu breathed a sigh of relief, finally he could take a break.

Since her rebirth, she has hardly slept well, and her sleep was not peaceful. Her dreams were all about Chang Huan having a bad time, and she was woken up by fright.

"Chang Huan!"

Dong Yu hurried over to comfort Gu Nianchu: "Miss, Miss, are you having a nightmare? Don't be afraid, we are all here."

Gu Nianchu took the hot tea offered by Dong Yu and took a sip: "What time is it?"

"Miss, it's time to get up and have dinner."

There has never been a small kitchen in front of Haitang Garden. Yesterday, Gu Nianchu asked the people in Haitang Garden to set up a small kitchen, but as soon as it was set up, the door was sealed by the palace soldiers, and they couldn't get out at all.

"Sent from the big kitchen?" Gu Nianchu had no appetite. Dong Yu hesitated for a moment and said, "Han Chan took us to the big kitchen to get the ingredients."

"A fight started?"

Gu Nianchu asked very confidently, and Dong Yu smiled: "Well, those old guys in the kitchen must have received orders from the old lady in the courtyard, and they refused to let us take the ingredients away. Han Chan beat up seven or eight of them by himself, and then we took all the good ingredients back to Haitang Garden."

"That's right. If anyone dares to bully us from Haitangyuan in the future, just fight back. Don't talk if you can use your hands."

Gu Nianchu's mouth curved upwards: "We are a military family. We are not good at quarreling with others, but we are good at fighting."

Dong Yu smiled so hard that her teeth were showing. It was great that their young lady was back to her old self.

"Yes, Miss, we have discussed it. From now on, we will get up early every morning to practice with Han Chan. If anyone dares to bully you in the future, we will slap him in the face."

Even if it was the prince, they would still beat him.

They really like the new guy, Han Chan.

Gu Nianchu washed her face, changed her clothes, and went outside to eat. Nanny Tian was very pleased to see that her complexion had improved a lot.

After dinner, Nanny Tian accompanied Gu Nianchu in the backyard to digest the food.

"Miss, the old lady had someone send back the key to your private vault, and she also asked me to count it."

Gu Nianchu nodded: "Well, have someone keep an eye on them, and when they try to smuggle the stuff out, they will end up losing more than they gain."

Nanny Tian agreed. Gu Nianchu told her to let Han Chan handle any difficulties she had. Nanny Tian was a little worried.

"Miss, do you trust Han Chan so much?"

Gu Nianchu smiled faintly: "I trust His Royal Highness Prince Qi."

Nanny Tian looked a little unhappy: "Miss, everyone says that His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi has killed many people and is cruel. You..."

Gu Nianchu reached out and hugged Nanny Tian: "Mammy, I don't know what kind of person His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi is. I only know that I trust people who can be valued by my father."

Madam Tian nodded: "Yes, I have overstepped my authority."

It was getting dark. Gu Nianchu changed his clothes and went out with Han Chan and Dong Yu, naturally they climbed over the wall.

Gu Nianchu was worried about Chang Huan, so she had to go and see him in person.

"Miss, His Highness has instructed that if you wish to come and see the young master, you should be brought here directly."

Han Chan took Gu Nianchu directly to the backyard of Prince Qi's mansion.

"Miss Higurashi is here."

The guards were very respectful when they saw Han Chan. Han Chan waved his hand and asked them to leave: "You can leave now. My master has something to say to that child."

The guard bowed respectfully to Gu Nianchu and left. Han Chan opened the door and invited Gu Nianchu in: "Miss, Ergou is inside."

"Chang Huan, his name is Chang Huan."

Gu Nianchu didn't like hearing the name Ergou and frowned slightly.

Han Chan quickly changed his words: "Yes, Master Chang Huan is inside, Miss, please come in."

Han Chan went in first and said softly to the child lying on the bed: "Chang Huan, my young lady is here to see you."

On the bed, a pale-faced child was lying on the bed. Hearing Han Chan's words, he wanted to get up. Gu Nianchu quickly stepped forward to support him: "Child, don't move."

"Madam, I am Ergou, not Changhuan."

Chang Huan's voice was a little weak, but he answered Gu Nianchu very seriously.
