Gu Yaoniang nodded.
Xie Danqiu found it strange and took Yao Niang's hand to examine it, saying, "You're not hiding some kind of face-blushing medicine, are you?"
Wang Zhilan was both amused and exasperated, and upon seeing this, she quickly pulled Xie Danqiu away.
She said, "Cousin, you're getting more and more outrageous. It seems that Sister Yaoniang really can't drink alcohol!"
Wang Zhilan also found it extremely novel; it was the first time she had ever seen someone blush after just a sip of osmanthus wine. Truly, their alcohol tolerance was incredibly low!

Xie Danqiu is truly a good woman. But what about Qin Yuxiu? What kind of person is Qin Yuxiu? Is she a truly treacherous and despicable person, or simply an ordinary person who followed the emperor's wishes?
Is Qin Yuxiu a good match for Xie Danqiu? Should I tell Xie Danqiu this?
