"Chicken leg, don't run." Sang Luan hugged Yupo's arm and bit it, muttering softly.
Hearing the sound getting closer, Yupo couldn't help but speed up the shaking of his hands.
Sang Luan suddenly woke up. She rubbed her eyes and looked at Yupo sleepily, "What's wrong?"
"Wait." After a split second of reaction, she suddenly opened her eyes wide and looked at Yupo in disbelief, "Who did you say was coming?"
Yupo nodded at her, "Madam is here."
Sang Luan paused, then quickly stood up, grabbed the quilt and hid herself.
Yupo also hurriedly changed the cushion.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry." Sang Luan waved her hand, "Rouge."
Yupo let out a cry, not understanding what Sang Luan meant for a moment.
Seeing that she was still dazed at such a critical moment, Sang Luan took action herself, grabbed Yupo's collar, and put her hand into her arms, "Yanzhi, didn't I ask you to be prepared all the time?"
In a flash, Yupo finally reacted and quickly took out the rouge that she had prepared long ago.
Immediately, she watched her young lady open the rouge box, gently scrape it with her fingertips, then sit down on the ground and lift the hem of her skirt to her knees.
He rubbed his knees lightly with his fingertips, and in the blink of an eye, the originally fair and delicate skin turned red.
Sang Luan took another rouge box and rubbed it on her knees in the same way.
Yupo couldn't help but widen his eyes.
"This is what it's like to kneel all night long." Sang Luan looked at it with great satisfaction and casually threw the two rouge boxes to Yupo, "Put these two away. Don't let anyone see them."
Yupo nodded and quickly hid the things.
Sang Luan reached out to ruffle her hair a little, then knelt on the ground and gave Yu Amber a look sideways.
"Miss, you have been kneeling all night, so get up and eat something." Yupo bent down to Fusang Luan and persuaded her earnestly.
"I won't get up. I left the house without telling Brother Hengzhi in advance." Sang Luan's voice was soft, but her tone was remarkably firm. "Brother Hengzhi is already so busy, and I shouldn't have put him through so much trouble."
"The old lady said that as long as you write the Four Virtues a hundred times, you can get up." Yupo couldn't help but sigh when he saw that his young lady was so stubborn.
"Just a little more, just a little more." Sang Luan straightened up instantly, a bright smile on her face. "A hundred times, not a single word wrong, not a single time less."
"Miss, ever since you married the Prime Minister, you've always been punished to kneel." Yupo curled her lips. "This servant has seen it with her own eyes, and it hurts my heart. After all, when you were in the mansion, the master and his wife held you in their mouths for fear of you melting, and in their palms for fear of you falling."
After saying this, she sobbed softly a few times.
Sang Luan raised her eyebrows slightly. Was this part included in the scene she told Yu Amber about in advance?
This girl even adds drama to herself.
"Yupo, don't talk nonsense." Sang Luan turned sideways and glared at Yupo. "Marrying Brother Hengzhi has always been my dream. Now I can see Brother Hengzhi every day. I can't tell you how happy I am. I believe mother will be happy for me too."
She collected her thoughts, put the paper aside, and knelt upright.
With his hands clasped together and his eyes closed, he looked extremely sincere and pious. "My dear ancestors, I beg you to bless Brother Hengzhi from being bothered by the trivial affairs of the court. I also hope that my parents-in-law can be healthy and live a long life. If so, I will sacrifice Luan'er's life for it."
What she said just now was nonsense. Dear ancestors, please don't pay any attention to her. It's best not to believe a single word she said.
After she finished speaking, Sang Luan slowly opened her eyes. When she saw the scene in front of her, she was obviously stunned for a moment.
Then he subconsciously said, "Mom, why are you here?"
There were dark circles under Liu Wenxian's eyes, and her complexion did not look very good.
She first glanced at Yu Amber casually, then at Sang Luan.
"Mother." Sang Luan's eyes lit up. She bent down, held the paper in her palm, and held it in front of Liu Wenxian. "Look, this is Luan'er copying the Four Virtues a hundred times."
Liu Wenxian took it and glanced at it. "Did you write all of these yourself?"
"Of course." Sang Luan's expression was sincere. "Luan'er knows very well that she has angered her mother. Every stroke of this pen is filled with uneasiness and guilt."
She lowered her head and sighed slowly.
"Come and count them." Liu Wenxian threw the paper on the ground and said to the maid beside her.
As soon as she finished speaking, the maidservant who was serving beside her bent down, gave two to each of them, and began to count them.
Sang Luan didn't care at all, with a slight smile on her lips. She knew that Liu Wenxian was not someone who could be easily fooled.
After one stick of incense.
"Ma'am, it is indeed a hundred times."
Liu Wenxian's face, which had been tense since she entered the ancestral hall, softened a little and she waved to the people around her.
Then his eyes fell on Sang Luan.
Sang Luan's hair was a little messy at this moment, and looking closely, her body seemed to be trembling slightly.
"Raise your head." Liu Wenxian said in a tone that did not allow for refusal.
Sang Luan looked up obediently, her originally stunning face was now stained with a layer of paleness, her brows were slightly furrowed, and she looked quite uncomfortable, but there was also a hint of forbearance on her face.
After kneeling and copying all night, her right hand fell limply at her side.
Liu Wenxian paused, her gaze suddenly fixed on the corner of Sang Luan's mouth.
There was a trace of suspicious liquid there.
Feeling the other person's gaze, Sang Luan quickly sniffed, raised her hand to wipe the corners of her eyes, and accidentally wiped the corners of her mouth.
"I didn't see Brother Hengzhi this morning." Sang Luan tried hard to hold back her tears. "Luan'er is so upset. I don't know if he slept well last night."
Yupo couldn't help but twitch the corners of her mouth. Miss, who would believe you if you said that?
A trace of pity flashed across Liu Wenxian's eyes. Although this child was a little unruly, he had a good heart. He always thought about Hengzhi and the Feng family.
From this perspective, agreeing to let Sang Luan marry Heng Zhi is not entirely a bad thing.
"Alright." Liu Wenxian still had a stern face. "Get up."
"Yes." Sang Luan nodded lightly, then slowly stood up, holding up the hem of her clothes.
Yupo quickly reached out to help.
Sang Luan had just stood up on one leg when she cried out "Ah" and fell to the ground, accidentally exposing her knees.
She reacted quickly, straightened her clothes, and stood up with the help of Yupo's wrist.
Liu Wenxian gave a look, and immediately two maids came forward and lifted up the jade amber, one on the left and one on the right.
