“Shao, see Princess Concubine Yun out please, I need a nap.” Liu Qingqing said.
Hearing that she needed a nap, Princess Concubine Yun said as she showed a drowsy look. “Me too, then I can take a nap here at your place.”
Then she walked towards the inner chamber.
Liu Qingqing threw a look at her – she was definitely hard to deal with. She shook her head, sighed and then continued to practice her martial arts in the yard.
Princess Concubine Yun showed a proud smile and followed suit. She asked Shao to get her a chair so that she could sit and watch. Liu Qingqing could not do anything about her, so she just left her alone.
***
At the Gu Mansion.
Gu Chaoyan had just driven out Gu Yunhe, when Sword One said, “Elder Miss, Miss. Li Yuanxiang is here. She is asking for you…”
Hearing that Li Yuanxiang was here…
Gu Chaoyan nodded. “Oh it is Yuanxiang, let her in.”
She showed a very cheerful smile on her face.
Li Yuanxiang was, after all, her first real friend. They were not in close contact with each other, but they were thinking about each other all the time. She was very happy to meet Yuanxiang.
Sword One went to meet the girl. She knew that Li Yuanxiang was different in Elder Miss’ mind.
In her heart, she believed that Elder Miss was a very different person who did not treat others based on their social status. Elder Miss was treating others the way she liked to be treated. She only cared if that person was good.
Sword One guided the girl politely into the room.
Gu Chaoyan waved. “Yuanxiang, come and take a seat. I have just made a kettle of tea, Tieguanyin, very tasty, try it!”
Li Yuanxiang sat uncomfortably. She had no knowledge of tea. She found tea was all the same in her taste.
Gu Chaoyan noticed that something had happened to Li Yuanxiang, since her eyes were red.
“What is it, anything wrong with the medicine?” Gu Chaoyan asked. “If you have any questions, please ask me, and I can get you all kinds of materials. Don’t stress yourself too much. When you are doing well, excellent medical pills will be produced!”
Li Yuanxiang had been busy with medicine making all day long, so Gu Chaoyan subconsciously thought that it was what she needed.
Li Yuanxiang shook her head slightly. “No…”
“Your father went to your home? If that is the case, come to me directly, and I can fix it for you.” Gu Chaoyan said.
Li Yuanxiang had a very complicated look on her face. She had no idea how to put it.
Gu Chaoyan and she had more or less the same destiny – they both used to be the lineal daughter who got bullied at the mansion, and Gu Chaoyan was also living in the most shabby place of the mansion – the Qiong Pavilion, but Gu Chaoyan was so lucky…
Gu Chaoyan was good at medicine and she was about to marry Lord Huai. She was even able to back her up!
She, on the other hand, was not able to achieve any of those.
She was not even able to brew the best medical pills. If she was a little bit more capable than she was now, her mother would not have treated her like this when she was at home today and asked her to do what she was doing now.
Li Yuanxiang felt so full of guilt.
“Chaoyan, none of these…” Li Yuanxiang countered with confidence. She was about to say something when the words got stuck. She really expected to say it.
“Chaoyan, I am here today, because I was wondering if you still want me as the witness?” Li Yuanxiang asked.
