She already knew what her daughter was going to do. She was her own daughter; no one knows a daughter better than her mother. How could she not know what her daughter was planning?
But should she stop it?
Thinking of Yunzhi, a flash of hatred crossed Xu's eyes, so quick that even Yunzhu, who had been watching her the whole time, didn't notice.
"Mom, please give it to me. I promise you I won't misuse it."
Xu pretended to be hesitant and embarrassed, but finally nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll lend you some to take a look. But you mustn't use it recklessly, understand?"
"I understand, Mother." Yunzhu happily agreed. She had done things in secret before, so what was there to be afraid of?
When things happen, her mother not only won't blame her, but will even try to clean up the mess.
As Xu watched her daughter walk away, a cold glint flashed in her eyes.
The Princess's residence has a peony garden, where the peonies are of various colors and shapes, and they are all precious varieties.
Every year during the flowering season, the garden is filled with pink, yellow, red, purple, white, and blue flowers, creating a truly breathtaking sight.
On the day of the flower festival, the girls who received the invitations started dressing up early in the morning, trying to make themselves look as beautiful as possible in order to give the young gentlemen a good impression.
Yunzhi was initially indifferent and planned to dress as usual. But Rulan disagreed. She felt that her mistress was, after all, the Regent's Consort, and was already beautiful. With a proper makeover, she would surely outshine all the other beauties.
So she used all her skills to make her master look better than everyone else.
Seeing Rulan's high spirits, Yunzhi had no choice but to let her be. Well, as a woman, she naturally loved beauty, and who wouldn't want to dress up nicely? It just took a little time.
Now, she has no in-laws to serve, no man to care for, and no children to look after; she has plenty of time.
It took Rulan more than half an hour to get Yunzhi dressed. Looking at her incomparably beautiful self in the mirror, Yunzhi couldn't help but smile.
It is said that women dress up for those they love, and it is indeed true.
"Miss, are you satisfied with this makeup?" Rulan asked with a smug look on her face.
"Not bad, your skills have improved again." Yunzhi praised with a smile, which made Rulan even happier. She turned to look at Rumei, as if to say: Look, my mistress praised me again.
Seeing Rulan practically strutting around because of her master's praise, Rumei couldn't help but shake her head, thinking she was too unsteady.
However, her master also spoiled Rulan, causing her to swallow back several times when she wanted to say something about Rulan.
Never mind, as long as Master is happy, it doesn't matter if Rulan's personality is not steady, because there is still her.
After the master and servants finished packing, they boarded the carriage and headed to the Princess's residence.
Yunzhi's villa was quite a distance from the Princess's residence, but the Regent's residence was much closer, separated only by a street.
Because of the distance, when Yunzhi and the others arrived, quite a few people had already arrived.
The person in charge of welcoming the young ladies was Granny Fang from the Chang Gong Mansion, who was also a confidante of Princess Dongli Yuehua. She already knew that Yunzhi was coming, so when she received her, her face was covered with a friendly smile, but her eyes were scrutinizing and appraising.
Aside from being a bit better looking, she couldn't see anything else about her.
It seems the regent is also someone who judges by appearance.
