Less than half an hour later, the Yan Mansion's carriage slowly drove into the alley.

Gu Yuelan jumped up again and said, "Look, this time it's correct, right?"

The two maids looked at each other helplessly. They were really worried about their young lady. With such an uncontrollable temper, what will they do when she enters the Eastern Palace in the future?

Before Yan Muxi jumped off the carriage, Gu Yuelan yelled at the top of her voice, "Look, look how high the sun has climbed! If you come a little later, all you'll have left is dinner and sleep!"

Yan Muxi pretended to return to the carriage, "Since the county lady thinks it's too late, let's visit her another day!"

"Come here, now that you're here, why do you want to leave?" Gu Yuelan dragged Yan Muxi off the carriage, and walked towards the mansion. "I'll take you to see the newborn foal, it's so cute and full of milk!"

Yan Muxi had no choice but to break free, "Go slower, the third sister is still in the carriage!"

Gu Yuelan then remembered that the purpose of inviting the Yan sisters to her house today was to bring together Yan Muyun and her uncle.

Both her grandmother and her mother wanted to marry Meng Yuan to her uncle, but she didn't like Meng Yuan and she would never want to call her aunt again.

Although Yan Muyun is a concubine's daughter, she looks quite manly and is definitely better than the delicate Meng Yuan.

Old Madam Gu lived in Xiangjuyuan. Only when Yan Muxi and Yan Muyun entered the house did they realize that the daughter of the Meng family was also there.

The two looked at each other, sighed knowingly, and thought that this trip might be unnecessary.

"If I remember correctly, Sister Yun and Sister Yuan are the same age. You people of the same age will definitely be able to play together. You must get along well with each other in the future." Old Madam Gu held Meng Yuan's hand while speaking. The two of them seemed to be closer than grandparents and grandchildren.

Before Yan Muyun and Meng Yuan could reply, Gu Yuelan spoke first, "I think what grandma said is wrong. Whether people can get along well with each other depends on their personalities, not their age. Just like Miss Meng and I, we are born to be incompatible and hate each other. We can never become close friends in this life."

Although she was used to it, Madam Gu was still so angry at her granddaughter that she scolded her unhappily, "You are everywhere. Do you have to use your mouth to irritate people?"

"What else? You don't need to use your mouth to anger others. Are you being angered by others?" Gu Yuelan argued unconvincedly, while at the same time she did not forget to step back, retreating to a distance of ten steps away from Old Madam Gu.

Madam Gu picked up her cane and pretended to hit him, but she couldn't reach him. "Forget it, take your close friends back to your own yard to play, don't stand here and make me angry!"

Meng Yuan said shyly, "I will stay here to accompany the old lady."

Madam Gu glared at Gu Yuelan, then smiled and praised Meng Yuan, "Sister Yuan is still the best. She is willing to kiss an old woman like me."

After saying that, he looked at Yan Muyun again, "It would be a bit boring to leave Sister Yuan alone with me, Sister Yun, are you willing to stay too?"

The old lady's meaning was very clear. She had set her eyes on Meng Yuan as her daughter-in-law. If Yan Mujun wanted to enter the Marquis's Mansion, she would probably have to be only a concubine.

Yan Muyun really wanted to turn around and leave, but she had to consider Gu Yuelan's face.

Just as she was thinking about how to refuse without hurting both parties' reputation, Gu Yuelan made the decision for her.

"Why should you keep her? I invited Sister Yun into the house. If grandma wants someone to accompany her, go ahead. Don't you feel embarrassed to compete with your own granddaughter at your age?" After saying that, he pulled Yan Muxi and Yan Muyun and walked out, one in each hand.

Old Madam Gu stroked her chest which was rising and falling, and it took her a long time to catch her breath.

If Gu Yuelan wasn't the only legitimate descendant left in the family, she would have been ruthless and taught her a lesson.

She was really afraid that her eldest granddaughter would enter the Eastern Palace one day and beat the prince in anger.

All the way out of Xiangjuyuan, Gu Yuelan was still cursing.

"... She is just a hypocritical thing, what's so good about her? Grandmother is really old and blind, otherwise how could she be interested in a girl like Meng Yuan as a daughter-in-law..."

Yan Muyun suddenly asked, "Does the county lady still need a friend?"

She really likes Gu Yuelan, and she is willing to help her friends when they have problems. It is so great to be her friend.

Gu Yuelan turned around and looked at her, "What? You can't be my little aunt, and you want to be my friend?"

Yan Muyun admitted generously, "Rather than being the county lady's aunt, I would rather be the county lady's best friend."

Hearing that her charm was greater than that of her uncle, Gu Yuelan's depression immediately disappeared. She tried hard to recall the frustrating things that happened in the past year, and finally she managed to suppress the corners of her lips that were rising wildly.

"Not everyone can be my close friend, but considering that you are Yan Muxi's sister, I will reluctantly consider it!"

Upon hearing this, Yan Muxi smiled and said, "I am truly flattered. I never thought that I would be so important in the county lady's heart!"

"You just found out about this?" Gu Yuelan rolled her eyes at her, then looked at Yan Mujun standing beside her and hesitated again.

She initially became friends with Yan Muxi because they were both unremarkable. Who would have thought that her former unremarkable friend would suddenly transform into a great beauty, making her look like an ugly duck.

If she had another good-looking handkerchief friend, wouldn't she be made to look even uglier?
