"Who... who's going to wear a high bun?" The next second, Fang Chengyin blushed and stammered, "Who's going to get married?"
The maidservant was confused: "I didn't say that the young lady was going to get married. I just said that the young lady has a beautiful face and will look good with a high bun."
Fang Chengyin was stunned as soon as she saw her ugly face in the mirror. She turned her head away and whispered, "Why are you talking so much nonsense? Hurry up and comb my hair!"
"Yes, yes, yes!" The maid was busy combing Fang Chengyin's hair. After a pause, she boldly asked in a low voice, "Miss, do you... do you want to get married?"
"Get out! Get out!" Fang Chengyin was startled, and then snatched the comb from the maid's hand, not caring about the maid's pitiful begging for mercy. She pushed the maid out. "Bang!" The door was closed, and she stood in front of the door, looking at the bowl of cold medicinal food on the table, and suddenly sighed. Then she went into the bedroom silently. She sat in front of the dressing table again. She looked at herself in the mirror with only half of her hair combed and her face blushing. She felt irritated no matter how she looked at it. She simply untied the combed single screw, and then combed it a few times with the comb. She tied a ponytail for herself, and then washed her face again. This time she didn't put on rouge again. And she didn't put on lip balm.
She looked at herself in the mirror and found that she was exactly the same as before. She felt relieved, but... but was she really the same as before?
Fang Chengyin slowly turned her head and looked at her fluffy pillow on the bed. Somehow, her face turned red. She walked over slowly, removed the pillowcase, and took out a moon-white undershirt that was obviously a man's. She stroked the undershirt, folded it for a long while, put it in her bag, and then hurried out the door carrying the bag.

Kong Wenmin had been at the Northwest Farm all day to keep an eye on the criminals and their surviving relatives. He had stayed up all night last night and came back tired early this morning. He originally wanted to fall asleep as soon as he lay down, but he was too tired. However, he was very hungry. He was about to go to the kitchen to see if there was anything ready-made to eat when he saw Fang Chengyin coming in with a food box and a small bundle. When their eyes met, they were both startled. Kong Wenmin did not expect to see Fang Chengyin at this time, while Fang Chengyin felt a little embarrassed.
"Miss, why are you here?" Kong Wenmin came back to his senses and hurried over to greet her. He took the lunch box from Fang Chengyin and felt the weight in his hand. When he spoke again, his tone was inevitably a bit complaining, "You are still injured, how can you carry such a heavy thing?"
"No, nothing, I'm almost well now," Fang Chengyin said hurriedly, looking around randomly, and said with a relaxed look, "Thanks to you two brothers, I was able to rush back to Ningguta to treat my injuries so quickly. I hope you will accept this little gift."
Kong Wenmin looked at the food box in her hand and said in surprise, "Miss, you can just send a servant, why do you have to come here in person? The distance from the backyard to the front yard is quite long."
"Nothing, I'm just too bored, I want to go out for a walk," Fang Chengyin said, pursing her lips, and then asked softly after a long while, "Why is Guard Xiao Kong not here? He... is he still not up?"
Kong Wenmin looked at the girl's blushing cheeks. What was there to not understand? Fang Chengyin came all the way with a full food box despite her injuries. She was not here to thank the two brothers as she said, but came to see Kong Wenjie. Kong Wenmin felt an indescribable sadness in his heart. Even though he had seen from the beginning that Kong Wenjie and Fang Chengyin were in love with each other and had made up his mind to help them get together, he still felt very uncomfortable at this moment.
"Oh, he received an order to go out on business," Kong Wenmin tried his best to conceal his feelings and tried to keep himself calm as always, "Miss, what do you want to see him about?"
"When did he leave?" Fang Chengyin was stunned when she heard this.
"That day, Wen Jie left right after sending the young lady back home," Kong Wenmin said. Looking at Fang Chengyin's expression, he added, "I'm afraid he won't be back for more than a month."
