  Lin's eyes sparkled with amusement as she saw Yang Lan's worried expression, and a warm smile spread across her gentle face. "Silly child, what's so difficult about this? Just tell the princess that you've already prepared everything, and it'll be fine. Can't she just ask you why you're not wearing a skirt? Tomorrow, find a gift of similar value to send over. I think she doesn't have many accessories, and rarely adds new ones. The young lady can consider sending some new accessories as well, which would also fulfill the sisterly bond."

  Yang Lan thought for a moment, and then nodded in agreement with the nanny's idea. She said: "Go to Silver Building to order a set of gold headdresses inlaid with rubies, and also find a matching veil to bring back. I think this was what Auntie left for my cousin's wedding, she might not have one herself, so I'll make up for it!"

  "Miss, have a bowl of swallow's nest and snow pear porridge! Auntie Yue has been stewing it for you in the small kitchen for a long time."

  Yang Lan nodded slightly, and Bi Lian brought in a red lacquer tea tray with a delicate porcelain bowl on it, "Miss, would you like to have some first? Will we be having lunch at the princess's place or in our own courtyard?"

  "Has my dad come back?" Yang Lan asked.

  "It's just that Eldest Young Master said he had a friend inviting him to drink at noon and didn't come back, only Second Young Master returned." Bilian reported truthfully.

  "Go to the kitchen and tell them to leave a bowl of wonton noodles for Big Brother, the soup should be light and not greasy. Also make a sugar vinegar cold mixed radish strips, prepare it for Big Brother when he comes back, after drinking wine his stomach might not feel comfortable, something needs to be done to make him feel better. By the way, does the kitchen still have some of the fruit vinegar they brewed? If there is, leave a bowl of that too, it's the best for relieving drunkenness!"

  "But isn't it like vinegar after failing to brew grape wine?"

  Last year, Zhuangzi started brewing his own wine and sent some to the mansion. The kitchen maids heard that Fangzi's method was simple, so they also tried it out for fun. Unexpectedly, someone failed, and what they brewed had a sour smell with a fruity flavor but wasn't wine.

  After being discovered by Yang Lan, he was intentionally left behind and was good at cooking or relieving drunkenness.

  "It's him. If Big Brother comes back, give him a bowl."

  "I know, but I have to say that the fruit vinegar is quite good for cooking, it has a slightly fresh and fruity flavor, which is different from ordinary vinegar! Especially when used in meat dishes, it doesn't make them feel greasy. Nowadays, some dishes in the kitchen still need to use it!" Bi Lian said with interest.

  "But when can we drink the plum wine we brewed last year? I've had other people's plum wine and it tastes great! It's sour and sweet, so delicious!" Biyue was the most lively, and couldn't help but feel a strong desire.

  "Wait till next year when the wine is ready, I'm looking forward to it too, it's my first time trying to brew wine!" Yang Lan said with a smile as she took out her half-finished embroidery pouch, planning to add a few more stitches. This one will be done soon. It looks much better than the previous ones, and it feels more comfortable too.

  At noon, she had lunch with her father and second brother. Her father mentioned that in a few days they would go to the suburbs of Beijing for horseback riding and fun, and stay at their villa for a few days before returning. This news made her very happy, finally able to get out and have some fun, being cooped up at home was almost suffocating.

  That night, the big brother came back late at night with a slight drunkenness. Fortunately, Yang Lan had instructed the kitchen in advance, and his personal servant Chang Fu took good care of him. Chang Fu was the son of the wet nurse and was chosen by Big Brother as a personal servant when he was six years old. He followed Big Brother to learn martial arts and recognize characters, and went out to run errands and gain experience. As for Chang Fu's future prospects, Yang Lan guessed that they would not be small either.

  Chang Fu is a steady and down-to-earth person, meticulous and taciturn. He has earned the respect of his elder brother, who thinks he's worth cultivating further.

  On the second day, I went to pay my respects to my mother early in the morning. As soon as I saw He Hui Zhang Gongzhu smiling and waving at me, she pulled my hand and asked: "I heard you want to decide on hair accessories? But if you don't like them, shall I call someone to show you some flower patterns?"

  Yang Lan smiled, "Not at all! Yesterday my cousin invited me to sit in her courtyard for a while and gave me a skirt made of rare fabric. I didn't want to refuse, so I thought about ordering a set of accessories and finding a piece of cloth to make a return gift."

  He Hui Chang Gong Zhu heard that it wasn't what her daughter wanted, so she nodded casually and followed her daughter, "Did she make it herself?"

  "Yes."

  "If you don't like it, then don't force yourself to wear it, just push it onto me. If she learns her manners well, let her attend the banquet in April!" He Hui Chang Gong Zhu's eyes rolled and she understood. She wasn't a bad person either, if someone had good manners and didn't lose face, she would naturally be willing to help them out. But if they really couldn't make it work, then they shouldn't meet guests, so as not to embarrass themselves for nothing.

  Yang Lan leaned against her mother's chest with her eyes closed, like a well-behaved little cat. "Don't worry, I won't be bullied! I just think my cousin is being stubborn and can't see reason. Mother should keep track of things in her heart and not let Father be dissatisfied."

  The old man remembered his sister's feelings and, even if he wasn't in the mansion during holidays, would instruct the steward to send someone to visit his cousin at the Li residence, bringing gifts of seasonal vegetables as a token of goodwill. He was afraid that his sister's only child might suffer some injustice. As soon as his cousin finished her mourning period, she immediately had someone bring her into the mansion to raise her, fearing that she would be left with no one to care for her.

  She vaguely knew her father's plan, wanting to marry her cousin to a general under his command. The family was clean and the mother-in-law was kind, so she could take charge of the household as soon as she entered. The man was also making a career under her father's hands, and no matter what, as long as the Yang family didn't fall, her cousin would have no worries about food and clothing for this life.

  Unfortunately, my elder sister wasted all the efforts of our old father, and I'm afraid there will be more troubles in the future!

  It's not that she looks down on her cousin, but rather that her personality is weak and delicate like a gentian flower, unable to withstand the storms of the Yang household. Even if her father were to dote on her cousin, he wouldn't possibly let her become his eldest daughter-in-law, let alone his youngest. But her cousin just can't see this point.

  The Yang family is in a high position with great power, holding military power for many years. It seems like a prosperous and flourishing scene, but unbeknownst to her, her parents are unable to rest easy, exhausting their minds to protect the old and young of the Yang household from worry.

  He Hui Chang Gong Zhu also sighed, the little girl from back then was indeed a good girl, but her weak personality made her indulge in poetry and songs, and she was deeply emotional. At that time, the Yang family was already favored by the emperor, so they didn't mind spoiling their daughter. The little girl was really good, helping her husband and second uncle get along with the old lady, and that period of time was also the most harmonious between mother and son.

  What a pity that the young lady's personality was... In those days, the ten-mile red sedan chair envied many boudoir daughters! What happened later? She couldn't even get through the emotional tribulations and left the world early!

  "Thinking back to the little girl's good intentions everywhere, carefully reminding her, and also softening Hui Chang Gong Zhu's heart a bit, 'Your cousin isn't easy either, she's just been blinded by wealth and luxury. I'll have someone keep an eye on her, you can give in a bit too. After all, she's not as lucky as you! I only hope she doesn't lose the Yang family's dignity, a little girl causing trouble is limited anyway, you don't need to worry about this.'"

  Yang Lan nodded and put it behind her mind. With her father and brother around, there was no need for her to worry.

  "Are you going into the palace tomorrow?" He Hui Chang Gong Zhu asked, remembering something.

  "I've been taught by Master Li for a few days and feel I've made great progress. I'd like to go visit my paternal grandmother and tell her about my intention to become an apprentice of Master Minghui to learn painting. Do you think Mother will approve?" Yang Lan had been thinking about learning painting!

  "I think that even if you were the emperor's uncle, it would be better to speak straightforwardly and not hide anything!" He Hui's words conveyed many meanings, which are hard to express in one sentence.

  Yang Lan thought for a moment, then smiled and said: "I understand. I'll be honest with you, I've heard that Master Ming Hui is extremely skilled in the art of painting, and I would love to receive guidance from a renowned master."

  He Hui smiled with satisfaction, a hint of flirtatious charm on her lips, "En! Very good, from now on, it must be like this, absolutely cannot lose one's original intention!"

  "Yes, daughter understands!" Yang Lan deeply understood the meaning and couldn't help but sit up straight and listen carefully.

  Wish you all a happy Labour Day and good health!
