But how could Wei Wei agree to that?
"I'm already a day late. If I don't go back by tomorrow, the neighbors will be laughing at me!"
"I don't care, I'm going!"
Her willfulness caused a flicker of impatience to cross Meng Zhixuan's eyes.
He didn't refuse her again, but said, "Then I'll pick you up later."
Wei Wei smiled slightly and agreed.
After Meng Zhixuan left, Xiao Qiao'er, who was guarding the door, went into the house.
"Miss, are you hungry?"
Wei Wei hummed in response, a complex look flashing in her eyes as she looked at the well-dressed maid.
Xiao Qiao'er was a quiet and reserved person. Later, she secretly climbed into Meng Zhixuan's bed and was beaten to death with sticks.
Wei Wei used to believe this wholeheartedly, but now she can't be sure if it's true.
"Let's set the table."
She spoke.
However, before the meal was even served, the matriarch of Yanshou Hall sent someone over.

So she picked out the heaviest piece of jewelry from the pile and stuffed it into Granny Chun's hand: "From now on, Granny, you must come and visit me often."
Being flattered by the eldest young mistress, Granny Chun responded with a beaming smile, her eyes brimming with joy.
As he left, he raised an eyebrow triumphantly at Granny Zhang before swaggering away with his head held high.
Once everyone was gone, Wei Wei smiled and looked at Zhang Mama: "Mama, you should also choose a good one."
However, there was a hint of perfunctoriness in his tone.
Granny Zhang wasn't stupid; she could tell what was going on.
