Yang Wanning sat down and said, “1 heard that you moved. I was thinking of finding an opportunity to visit and congratulate you.”
“You’re quite well-informed. Yeah, we just moved in yesterday. If you have time, do come over for a visit.”
“Definitely. Do you know how to play chess? Do you want to play a game?”
Zhou Ying shook her head. “I don’t know how to play Go. It’s too much for my brain.”
After that, she noticed the figure of a servant girl swaying outside the window. She thought to herself that they were really watching them closely. Zhou Ying sneered and said in a low voice, “It looks like you have quite a lot of rats here.”
Yang Wanning followed her gaze and saw a shadow quickly fleeting by. She smiled and replied, “Just a bunch of rats in the dark.”
“You’d better be careful. Be careful so that your aides aren’t taken over.”
“I will.”
After chatting for a while, Zhou Ying asked, “We are going to the Imperial Residence of King An later. Do you want to come along?”
When Yang Wanning heard they were going to the Imperial Residence of King An, she immediately thought of Princess Mingyu’s fate.
Thinking back to how she had helped her last time, she decided to befriend her and try her best to stop the tragic fate befalling King An’s Imperial Residence. Yang Wanning stood up and asked, “Can 1 really follow you to King An’s Imperial Residence?”
“Of course, you can. You’re not young anymore, so go out and make some more friends. Don’t stay at home all the time.”
“I will. Please wait a moment, as I’ll go change my clothes.” After Yang Wanning said that, she immediately went into her bedroom to change.
After a while, Chun Xi walked in with tea and snacks.
Zhou Ying saw that the color of the tea was lovely, so she picked up the teacup and blew on it carefully while taking a small sip.
The taste was pure, rich, calm, yet intense.
Her appet.i.te was stimulated after she drank it. The tea was smooth and refreshing, with a lingering sweetness. It was a rare and excellent tea.
However, after finishing a sip, there is a faint astringent taste. It was weird and out of place.
At first, she thought it was her imagination, but after taking another sip, she realized that it indeed had an astringent aftertaste.
Zhou Ying looked at Chunxi and asked,” Chunxi, these tea leaves are excellent. Can you bring them over for me to look at? I’ll buy some later.”
“If you like it, 1 will wrap some for you.”
“That won’t do. This is a gift from your young master. It’s a gift from a younger brother to his older sister. How can 1 take it away?”
Chun Xi nodded understandingly. She turned around, took out a tea box, and handed it to her.
After Zhou Ying took it, she scanned it with her spiritual senses. Sure enough, she found a lot of tea leaves that looked similar to Pu’er tea leaves but were of a different kind.
She pinched a small handful and wrapped it up. She kept it on her and said, “Alright, thank you.”
After Chun Xi carried the tea box away, Yang Wanning wore a dark green, cross-collared dress.
Not only did she not look old in that dress, but it emphasized her slender figure due to her fair and tall stature.
Seeing this, Zhou Ying called Chun Xi to accompany them.
When they arrived back at Madam Cui’s residence, Yang Wanyu was also there.
After Yang Wanning stepped forward and bowed to everyone, Gu Chengrui stood up and said, “Uncle, it’s not early anymore, so we won’t disturb you any further. We’ll visit you again when we’re free.”
“This is your first visit. How can I let you leave on an empty stomach? It’s better to have lunch before you leave.” Although Madam Cui hated them, she still stood up and offered politely.
“Thank you, Aunt Cui, but we must still visit King An and his consort today.
“Oh right, we’ll be bringing Wanning along since it just happens that she’s free. We’ll personally send her back later.” Zhou Ying replied with a smile.
Madam Cui knew that they were going to visit King An’s Consort, so she immediately pulled Yang Wanyu up and said, “I see. Since you are going to the Imperial Residence of King An, then Wanyu will follow you..”
