The princess is rebellious and brings space to make trouble for the villain

"Okay, you two wait a moment."

The servant quickly closed the door and ran inside.

After a while, I heard the rustling sound of footsteps coming towards this side. "Quick, open it."

"Yes, ma'am."

The servant quickly opened the door.

I saw a woman in her thirties, walking towards me slowly in a white jade skirt embroidered with plum blossoms. The long robe set off her graceful figure. Her small steps swayed and moved, making her look elegant and noble, quiet and dignified.

That face, which could not conceal joy, was delicate and beautiful, with her three thousand long strands of hair tied into a bun.

"Huiyi? Are you Huiyi?" Meng Weilan spoke before she even got close, and every word in her tone was filled with excitement and joy.

Zhou's eyes turned red as she looked at her elegant appearance. She nodded, "Weilan, I'm Huiyi."

"Hui Yi, I finally saw you. Come in quickly."

She looked at Fang Shiwan who was standing next to her and said in surprise, "Is this Shiwan? She's really pretty."

"Hello, Madam Meng." Fang Shiwan knew that this was a good person, so he performed the standard etiquette of a junior in a proper manner.

"Hey, hey, good boy, come in quickly, it's hot outside."

Meng Weilan held Fang Shiwan's hand in one hand and Zhou's in the other and walked towards the mansion, constantly asking about Zhou's matter.

Fang Shiwan listened obediently to what the two of them said, sitting very properly like a legitimate daughter.

"Hui Yi, you haven't come to see me in all these years. I'm really worried."

As soon as she sat down, Meng Weilan couldn't wait to express her longing for her friend, and she specifically ordered the servants to take out the children's food and the women's toys to entertain Fang Shiwan.

Looking at the snacks and the little girl's things in front of him, Fang Shiwan curled the corners of his mouth exaggeratedly. Isn't Aunt Meng Weilan too nice?

"Weilan, I'm sorry to have worried you. You've indeed been through a lot over the years. Don't blame me."

"That's not true. I know a little bit about the rumors in the imperial city." Meng Weilan wiped her eyes with a handkerchief while speaking, and then poured another cup of tea for Zhou. "Huiyi, if life is hard, then divorce. With Uncle Zhou's love for you, he will definitely take you back home."

Zhou sighed, "Weilan, I know you are all doing this for my own good. There are some things that have not been clarified yet, so I can't leave."

"Why? Can't you check it out if you're away?"

"Wei Lan, I have been married for decades and have caused a lot of trouble to my parents and brother. In the past, I insisted on marrying him despite your opposition. My parents married me off with a grand ceremony. Now I want to leave the Shangshu Mansion in style again on my own."

Meng Weilan shed a tear in distress, "Why bother? How long will this last? If you really don't want to trouble your parents and have nowhere to go, I have a separate courtyard in the imperial city, you can live there."

Zhou was so moved when she heard this that she took Meng Weilan's hand and choked up, "Weilan, thank you so much. If you really want to help, can I ask you for a favor?"

"Okay, you say."

"I would like you to be Shi Wan's teacher."

When Meng Weilan heard this, she quickly stretched out her hands, "No, no, I can't bear to do that. Although many people want me to be their teacher, I have never taught those people and have no experience. How can I delay someone so young?"

"Weilan, I believe you. You were once a famous talented woman in the imperial city, proficient in everything from music, chess, calligraphy and painting. So what if you have no experience? I believe in you and my daughter, so please be kind."

Meng Weilan looked at Shi Wan, who was concentrating on eating snacks, her eyes full of tenderness.

Fang Shiwan raised her head and saw Meng Weilan looking at her, her mouth full of food. She smiled and said, "Aunt Meng, this is really delicious."

In modern times, she often goes to places that claim to be centuries-old to eat local specialties, but they are not as delicious as in ancient times. Of course, modern delicacies are still more popular.

"If it's delicious, eat more. I'll have someone prepare some for you to take back."

"Thank you Aunt Meng."

Meng Weilan turned her head and looked at Zhou who was full of expectation, but was finally defeated by Fang Shiwan's lively eyes. Who told her to like this girl?

"Okay, Huiyi, I promise you."

After hearing this, Zhou smiled in surprise, "That's great, Weilan, thank you so much."

"There is no need to thank each other, but I have to say something ugly. You and I are like handkerchiefs, but I am very strict in teaching. If you can't hold on, you can tell me at any time."

"Okay, okay, Wan'er, come over and thank your Aunt Meng."

Fang Shiwan's mouth was still full of snacks. After hearing what Zhou said, he walked over with his cheeks puffed out. He chewed the snacks in his mouth faster and swallowed them hard.

Looking at Fang Shiwan who was protecting his food, Meng Weilan smiled and picked up a handkerchief to cover her mouth, "Alright, that's not necessary. There's no need to be so polite between us."

"It's late, during the teaching period, you have to call Master Meng, okay?"

"As you command, Shi Wan."

For a moment, the house was filled with joy and happiness. Zhou briefly described some of her situations at home. After listening, Meng Weilan's face turned cold.

Looking at Zhou's smiling face, I felt very sad.

A few people agreed to start teaching tomorrow. When they walked to the door, they happened to meet Mr. Xu who was coming back from work.

The man was eight feet tall, and was wearing an official uniform that set off his straight and tall body. His face still showed the handsomeness of his youth.

Lord Xu tried several times to invite the two of them to come down for dinner, but Zhou declined politely.

"Sister, why are you so polite?"

"Brother Xu, there are some things going on at your house today. We will definitely visit you another day, okay?"

"Okay, okay, then I'll send someone to send you back." Lord Xu was also an open-minded man and naturally understood Zhou's situation.

After expressing her gratitude, Zhou got on the carriage prepared by Lord Xu and Meng Weilan and slowly returned to the Shangshu Mansion.

When the servant of the Shangshu Mansion saw that it was an unfamiliar carriage, he thought that it was the prominent official who came to see the Shangshu. It was not until Fang Shiwan and Zhou got off the carriage that he realized that they were the eldest daughter and the eldest lady.

"Madam, Miss, take care."

"Okay, thank your wife and master for me."

The groom said respectfully, "I will definitely pass it on."

Zhou pulled her daughter and smiled as she walked past the stunned gatekeepers, ignoring them completely, then walked around the screen wall and went straight to the yard.

Because Fang Shiwan had always wanted a special name for the yard, she hadn't thought of one yet. Plus, she was still illiterate so she didn't dare to say anything.

"Wan'er, can you finish all these snacks?"
