The chief steward of Prince Rong's mansion came to the house in person and said that he heard that the third young lady of Minister Yan's mansion could cure heart disease. The princess had been feeling anxious recently, so he wanted to invite the third young lady to the mansion to treat the princess.

He also specifically told the Third Miss that if she felt uneasy, she could ask her sisters to accompany her.

This statement was euphemistically expressed as understanding, but in reality it was irresistible and Yan Muyun had to go on this trip.

The Su family agreed to come and discuss the marriage tomorrow. Yan Muqing couldn't leave the house, so Yan Muxi was the only adult girl left in the house.

In the evening, Yan's father, who had not set foot in Manweiyuan for many days, came over.

The mother and daughter were having dinner. Qian Manman looked up and saw Yan's father. She dropped her chopsticks with a "pop" and tears as big as beans rolled down her cheeks.

Her vision was blurry and she couldn't see the person's face clearly. She couldn't believe what she saw. She was stunned for a long time before she shouted, "Husband!"

Father Yan sat down on a round stool nearby and wiped away her tears with his hand. "Why are you crying? Sister Xi is still here. Aren't you afraid that your child will laugh at you for your childish behavior?"

Qian Manman glared at him and burst into laughter, "Sister Xi is very sensible, she won't laugh at me! Only my husband will bully me."

"Hmm? I don't admit that. Tell me, when did your husband bully you?" Father Yan asked, but his eyes were full of affection.

Looking into his eyes, Qian Manman felt guilty about the words she was about to say and took them back. She had killed her husband's child, but her husband had not said a word of blame, which meant he must have cared about her very much.

If she hadn't come to Manwei Garden, she would have hidden herself away to lick her wounds. I couldn't bear to see her suffer, so what right did she have to act like a little bitch?

The complaining words were replaced by a delicate snort, "Humph, my husband is bullying me! I don't care, I will punish my husband by making him eat two more bowls of rice, not even a grain of rice less."

Father Yan took the bowl and chopsticks handed over by Liu's mother with a smile, and first gave Qian Manman a piece of her favorite braised chicken with chopsticks, "Eat more, you've lost weight."

Seeing that her mother was about to burst into tears again, Yan Muxi, who was treated as air, spoke up, "It must be because I ate too much and took away her food, that's why she is so thin and hungry."

After saying that, she smiled and stood up, "I don't want to trouble you any more, Dad, Mom, please eat slowly, I will go back to the yard first."

"Wait," Father Yan put down his chopsticks, "It's not easy to offend Princess Rong. Your eldest sister can't go out tomorrow. Your third sister is shy and afraid of strangers. Sister Xi will accompany your third sister to the Rong Palace!"

Yan Muxi knew that she couldn't refuse, but she still said, "But I'm afraid of running into Prince Rong."

Qian Manman woke up from her sweetness, "Yes, Sister Xi can't go to Prince Rong's Mansion. The last incident was finally settled, and we can't cause trouble again."

"It's OK. Prince Rong has promised that he will not pursue the past, so he will not trouble Sister Xi again. Prince Rong has fallen in love with a dancer recently. He spends all day in brothels and is not often in the palace. I don't think we will run into him."

Seeing that Father Yan was certain, Qian Manman looked at Yan Muxi and said, "How about Sister Xi go with your third sister?"

As expected, it was the same. Whenever she met her husband, she, as his daughter, had to stand aside. There had never been an exception.

Yan Muxi nodded in agreement, "Alright then! Since mother has said so, even if the Rong Palace is a sea of ​​fire and swords, my daughter will accompany my third sister on this trip." After saying so, she bowed and left the room.

"I, as a mother, pushed Sister Xi to go to the palace even though I knew there would be trouble. Is Sister Xi angry with me?"

Qian Manman puffed up her face and acted coquettishly. Her small round face, which looked extremely childish, was white, tender and smooth. Coupled with her clear almond-shaped eyes, her pouting lips and puffed face did not seem at all out of place.

Father Yan scratched her little upturned nose and said, "How can a biological child be angry with her own mother? Sister Xi has the same temper as you. She just doesn't like to be petty!"

Qian Manman didn't suspect anything and immediately picked up the chopsticks and started serving the food with a smile.

The sounds of conversation in the room disappeared from his ears, and Yan Muxi walked calmly without pausing for a moment.

The one serving by her side today was Yin Xia, who advised, "Madam is just like that, Miss, don't worry about it."

Yan Muxi forced a smile, "Who said I'm worried about it? I've met so many people and things in my life, and if I keep them all in my heart, wouldn't my heart be heavier than a weight? When we get back to the courtyard, tell Qiuzhu that the princess has been bedridden for a long time and should like brighter clothes. Prepare the clothes and jewelry for tomorrow's visit to the palace in advance, and make them more festive."

"Okay." Yinxia responded respectfully, but thought to herself, Auntie, do you have any non-festive clothes?

She dresses up like a bride every day, with her hair full of pearls and jade, and she wears brocade and jade robes. She wishes she could write from head to toe: I have money, lots of money, be careful about being tempted by money, don't touch me.

When Yan Muxi returned to the yard, he found out that Yan Mujun had been waiting for a long time.

She ordered the maid to bring new tea and sat down on the couch on the other side. "Why didn't Third Sister ask someone to go to the next room to call me?"

"It's nothing anyway. It won't matter if I wait for a while." Yan Muyun took out a small porcelain jar. "I mixed a beauty cream myself. Apply it before going to bed at night to relieve the damage caused by makeup to the skin. Second sister can try the effect."

Yan Muxi opened the porcelain jar and smelled it. There was no special smell, just a slight milky fragrance.

The entire Yan family knows that Jin Chun understands pharmacology, and Yan Mujun would not be stupid enough to use medicine to harm her.

If you show kindness to others without any reason, you are either harming them or asking something of them.

I looked up and saw Yan Muyun's face was in a state of confusion. My request was written all over her face. She suddenly wanted to tease him, "Tsk, is there any poison in this ointment?"

Then, she saw the beauty rolling her eyes again, and in an unusually familiar manner.

After rolling his eyes, Yan Muyun snatched the porcelain jar and said, "Don't use it if you're afraid of ruining your face. I'm saving money. This ointment can be sold for a few taels of silver if I send it outside."

Yan Muxi also followed her example and rolled her eyes in an unorthodox way, "If you don't want it, then don't want it. Who cares!"

Yan Muyun was impatient, and she lost her temper. "Yan Muxi, has anyone ever told you that you put on makeup all day like an actor, which really doesn't look good. I have a piece of advice. The powder contains a lot of lead powder. If you use too much, your face will be damaged."

Unexpectedly, she would suddenly say this. Yan Muxi was stunned for a moment, raised her chin and said proudly: "Why do you care? I will make my face look whatever I like. What does it matter whether others like it or not?"

Yan Muyun stood up and walked out, "I shouldn't have come."

Yan Muxi didn't stop her. If you want to ask for help, you have to have the right attitude. They are not biological sisters born of the same mother, so there is no need to spoil them.

Yan Muyun walked to the door and then turned back. She stared for a moment and gritted her teeth, "Can I borrow your maid tomorrow?"

After the humiliation in Meiyuan, she has deeply experienced the horror of class society and realized her own weakness.

As the saying goes, it is better to live a miserable life than to die a good death. The ability to live again is a blessing that she has accumulated over many lifetimes. She cannot lose her life easily.

Therefore, even at the cost of his reputation, he had to borrow a maid who was good at martial arts to take to Prince Rong's mansion for protection, so that he would not be bullied by anyone.

When Yan Muyun went out the next day, she found out that Yan Muxi would accompany her to Prince Rong's Mansion, and her face turned pale from yesterday.

After getting on the carriage, she questioned, "Why didn't you tell me yesterday that you were going to the palace too?"
