The old lady greatly admired Chuanyu's courage and frankness, as well as her clear understanding of the national situation, which was something the old lady had not expected.
Chuan Yu scratched her head sheepishly. She only had the chance to say a few words after listening to the students' discussions at the academy.
The old lady tapped her on the forehead, "Don't be so smug! You're not even married yet and you're already writing love letters. You have to be punished, or you'll never learn your manners!"
Originally, the old lady wanted to punish Chuanyu by confining her to her room to reflect on her mistakes, but Chuanyu begged for mercy, saying she still had to go to the academy to cook. So the old lady sighed and punished her by making her copy scriptures to cultivate her character.
The next day, when Chuanyu went to the girls' school, she wanted to ask Chuanwen to come with her, but when she arrived at Chuanwen's courtyard, she saw that she was still fast asleep and felt sorry for her. She thought that her sister Wen must have suffered a lot in the palace, so she didn't disturb Chuanwen and left quietly, letting her sister Wen have a good sleep.
When Chuanwen woke up, the sun was already high in the sky. He stayed in bed for a while longer, and when he got up, everyone was already having lunch.

There were often assassination attempts against the people of the Changxing Marquis's Mansion. However, the disaster relief fund case had been over for half a year, and there had been no more assassination attempts against the Changxing Marquis's Mansion (actually, it was because she hadn't exposed any corrupt officials during this period). She no longer needed to keep a bodyguard.
Besides, it's freezing cold, and Zheng Yan, being a man, doesn't want to go into her room. It must be quite a hardship for him to always be waiting outside.
Hearing this, Zheng Yan felt warm inside, touched by Chuanwen's concern. However, he was also worried that the emperor might really send him back. He hesitated several times, unsure of how to tell Chuanwen.
Lunch was eaten together by everyone. When Chuanwen arrived, everyone had almost finished eating. Marquis Changxing quickly invited Chuanwen to sit down next to him, and the old lady of Marquis Changxing had someone add more bowls and chopsticks.
