No sooner had Qiu Hong left than Mu Xue entered Lin Qingwan's room. This girl had been able to move around freely for the past two days.
She winked at Lin Qingwan, "Miss, everything has been done as you instructed."
Huaguang Institute.
Granny Lai grinned as she presented the ointment, looking smug with satisfaction at her accomplishment.
She had indeed done a good job, but Lin Qingwan asked her to bring the begonia-red fox fur. Unfortunately, Granny Lai was heartless and forgot that Chunyu's life had been lost because of this fox fur a while ago.
"Miss, please use this medicine. Apply it and you'll see improvement by tomorrow, and the scars will disappear in a couple of days."
When Granny Lai's smug, condescending manner met Jiang Yanwan's icy gaze, she instinctively shrank back. Her eyes darted around, and she added, "Then Lin Qingwan bowed down to you and even had me deliver a fox fur coat to you."
"These past two days, I've been advising her to listen to the young lady more and learn from you so that she can win the favor of the Prime Minister and his wife."
"Among all the noble ladies in the capital, Miss is definitely one of the most outstanding."
Jiang Yanwan played with the ointment, a smile playing on her lips. "So, you've already gained her trust at Ningsi Garden."
"I only wish to do my best to help Miss get things done, and I hope I will not fail in my mission."
"In another day or two, Muxue will be able to get out of bed. That girl is keeping a close eye on her, so things will be difficult then."
Jiang Yanwan's eyes, reflected in the fox fur, appeared fiery red. "Go down."
Granny Lai was taken aback. "Young Miss, what about my nephew..."
Jiang Yanwan's face suddenly turned cold. "Get out."
Xia Yan immediately dragged Granny Lai out, throwing her the fox fur coat as well, saying, "You did a good job."
"Go back first, I'll get back to you about your nephew's matter soon."
Granny Lai nodded vigorously, "Yes, this servant thanks you for your kindness, Miss."
After saying that, she hugged the fox fur coat in her arms again, "Miss Xia Yan, this fox fur coat..."
Xia Yan had already returned to her room. Granny Lai knew that the young lady was proud and arrogant and didn't care about the things Lin Qingwan gave her, but the fox fur was indeed very warm against her skin.
Her eyes darted around, and seeing that no one was around, she left with the fox fur coat in her arms.
Xia Yan watched through the window as she sneaked out of the courtyard, her expression hardening. "Miss, take it."
Jiang Yanwan smelled the sweet and slightly bitter fragrance emanating from the ointment, and coldly looked at the plate of persimmons on the table. "Ah Lin has been leaving early and returning late these past few days. He must be very busy with the affairs of the Xiaoji Camp. Go and send two plates of persimmons to the young master so that he won't be hungry when he comes back late."
Lin Qingwan, do you think you can compete with me in the Prime Minister's mansion just because your father favors you? I'd like to see how long your father will dote on you!
At the same time, Lin Qingwan's medicine was also delivered to Lan Garden.
Rongma advised Lin, "It's not a bad thing that Miss Qingwan is straightforward. You were like that when you were young too."
“You see, even a serious person like the Prime Minister loves his own daughter. Miss Qingwan took the initiative to ease the tension between you after receiving your favor, sending you persimmon cakes and ointments.”
"A biological mother and daughter are bound by blood; even if the bones are broken, the tendons are still connected."
Lin sighed and remained silent.
Rong Ma said again, "This servant will try this ointment for you."
Lin slowly closed her eyes, but did not refuse. "Hmph, if she could understand my thoughts even half as well as Yan Wan, I wouldn't have to be cold to her."
Rong Ma chuckled, "You know the Prime Minister dotes on her, that's why you're even colder, isn't it?"
Lin smiled and said, "You have a sharp eye."
