I don't want to be the favorite concubine of this palace anymore

Madam Zhang stood up happily when she saw the person coming: "Master An, you are here? Please take a seat."

An Muxi smiled, found a place to sit down, and was very happy to see Erniu could eat by himself.

"I came to see Erniu. It seems that he has improved."

Mrs. Zhang said gratefully: "Thanks to the prescription and herbs you gave me, he was able to get out of bed and move around on his own this week, and he can also eat slowly."

Xiaoyun was also very happy: "Mom, as long as my brother can eat, he will definitely recover. The prescription prescribed by our master must be effective."

Madam Zhang said quickly, "Erniu, come over here and pay your respects to your savior."

An Muxi quickly stopped him: "Don't be so polite to me, we are all family. Erniu has just gotten better, so stop making trouble."

Mrs. Zhang understood the meaning of her words and was very happy so she didn't insist.

An Muxi asked Xiaoyun to put down the herbs she bought, and said to Madam Zhang, "I'll take Erniu's pulse again later. These are the herbs I bought, and they should last for a week."

"I guess after finishing this dose of medicine, Erniu won't need to take medicine anymore. He just needs to eat tonic food in the future."

Madam Zhang looked at the herbs with red eyes, embarrassed. "Master An, you have been so kind to our family. We really have no way to repay you."

If it weren't for Master An, her son would probably be dead now. The couple are truly grateful.

An Muxi didn't say anything polite, she just said, "Just let Xiaoyun follow me from now on, you don't have to do this. Maybe I still need your help."

When Mrs. Zhang heard this, she agreed: "Don't worry, as long as you can use us, our whole family will be at your disposal."

An Muxi chuckled: "It's not that exaggerated, just take care of Erniu with peace of mind."

After saying this, An Muxi checked Erniu's pulse and found that his health had improved and his functions were recovering. An Muxi asked Xiaoyun to stay at home and spend more time with her family. She would pick her up when she came back.

Then she took Qiu Shuang and Qiu Yue into the carriage and left. She had thought it through before going out today. It wasn't easy to go out once, so she wanted to walk around more.

She asked the driver to slow down as she wanted to investigate the situation of the street market in preparation for opening a clinic in the future.

After strolling through several streets, we arrived at East Street, which is the most high-end and prosperous place in the imperial capital and is also close to the imperial palace.

An Muxi had never had the chance to come to this street before, so everything here seemed new to her. After walking for a while, she saw a very eye-catching sign, which was for a theater called Hua Man Lou.

She thought that since she had brought Qiu Shuang and Qiu Yue out today, their safety should be guaranteed. Besides, they were just going in to watch a show, so it should be fine.

Then he took the two of them into the theater. In that era, listening to opera was a form of entertainment that everyone, from the emperor to the common people, loved.

A good drama troupe would also earn a lot of money. The fact that they could open a theater in Dongcheng meant that this theater must have a background, and the actors inside were mostly the top stars of Tiansheng.

Therefore, the consumption here is not low, and most of the customers who come here are royal relatives or high-ranking officials.

An Muxi and the others entered the theater. A waiter greeted them at the door and came up to them and asked enthusiastically, "Welcome, ladies. Do you want to stay on the stage or in the private rooms?"

An Muxi didn't know what was going on here, so she asked curiously, "Is there any difference between the open-air tables and the private rooms?"

The servant said, "The fee for the stage is based on the number of people, 50 taels of silver per person, and the seats are in the hall in front of the stage. The fees for the private rooms are based on the size, and a small room will be enough for you, so you only need to pay taels at once."

An Muxi secretly smacked her lips. Is it so expensive? She worked so hard to save money, but here, even a single table costs 10 taels of silver. It was equivalent to her monthly salary as a concubine for several months.

No wonder she heard that even the rich and powerful wouldn't often go out to listen to operas.

The price almost discouraged her from going in, but as the saying goes, since she was already here, she could faintly hear opera sounds coming from inside the door, and it would be a shame not to go in and take a look.

So he gritted his teeth and said, "Let's just sit at the separate stage."

So the waiter called a waiter to usher them over, took them to pay the bill first, then went into the hall and found a seat for them that was relatively close to the front.

After the three of them sat down at a small square table, a servant quickly brought each of them a small teapot and a small teacup. This was a gift from the theater.

An Muxi thought that the theater owner was really good at marketing. How much is this pot of tea worth? It's the sheep who are paying for it. But it will make the guests feel comfortable.

In her previous life, she had no idea how many times she had been fooled by this kind of marketing. She was often dazzled by marketing slogans like buy one get one free, second item at half price, and special discounts, and bought a bunch of things she didn't need, and still felt she had made a profit.

An Muxi looked around. Since it was daytime, there were not too many customers and about half of the seats were occupied.

There are private rooms all around the upstairs, and I can’t see clearly who is inside, so I guess there aren’t many people.

In fact, she didn't understand the play at all. She was just here to join in the fun. Seeing Qiu Shuang and Qiu Yue were also attracted by the play on the stage, she quietly asked, "Can you two understand it?"

The two nodded, feeling a little strange, as most of the plays in the theater were well-known and could be understood by everyone, unless someone paid to order some unpopular songs.

Qiu Shuang asked: "Master, don't you understand?"

An Muxi smiled awkwardly and said, "I didn't listen to operas much when I was young, so I can only understand the general idea. Well, since you guys rarely come out, just watch the opera carefully."

The two of them didn't think much about it and continued watching the show. This place was in the center of the theater hall and the risk factor was not high, so although the two of them were paying attention to their surroundings, they were also quite relaxed.

An Muxi thought that since she had spent a huge amount of money to come in, it would be a bit of a loss if she didn't listen to the show, so she pretended to watch the show. This time she really got into it.

The piece being performed on the stage was a piece similar to "The Case of the Killing of a Beauty". The actors were performing at a very high level and even a layman like An Muxi could listen to it with great interest.

At this time, in a private room on the second floor, there were a man, two women, and two maids serving them.

One of the women accidentally saw An Muxi sitting at the terrace downstairs and stood up immediately.

"I saw her, it's this bitch!" She couldn't help but scream, scaring the people around her.

The man said, "Sister, what's wrong with you? Who did you see?"

"I saw the bitch who hit my carriage last time! Come over here and see if it's her!"

Upon hearing this, the man also looked downstairs and saw three women sitting in the front seats of the hall. The one sitting in the main seat was indeed the woman who had a car accident with his sister that day.

Seeing his sister's expression, he was afraid that she would cause trouble again, so he reminded her, "Li'er, that incident is over, don't cause trouble again."

Bai Yueli obviously didn't think so, and said bitterly: "Brother, last time I was itchy all over and had a rash all over my body. It must be this woman who did it. She made me lose face in front of my brother the Crown Prince. I haven't taken revenge for this yet."

Bai Jingchen said helplessly: "Do you have evidence to prove that she did it? If it wasn't her, wouldn't it be wrong to accuse a good person?"

Bai Yueli choked, but still said: "It happened after I collided with her carriage. It must have something to do with her!"

After saying that, he gave a few instructions to the maid behind him, and the maid went out.

Bai Jingchen looked at her disapprovingly, knowing that she was going to cause trouble again, and wanted someone to stop her, but then another woman next to her spoke.
