Lin Qianqian pushed Taozhi to sit down at the table, grabbed three strands of hair and braided them into two scorpion-tail pigtails exactly the same as her own.

From the copper wire inlaid with shell and mother-of-pearl dressing box, she selected a pair of blue dragonfly jeweled silk flowers and gently inserted them into Taozhi's hair.

"Auntie Lin, this..." Taozhi was surprised and flattered to see such beautiful jewelry worn in her hair.

"Mrs. Lin, how can you wear such precious jewelry on my head?"

"I'll give it to you. I don't really like this color. It will just gather dust in the box anyway." Lin Qianqian said as she scooped up some hair oil and rubbed it on Taozhi's head and temples. Her hair suddenly became black and shiny.

"Thank you, auntie." Taozhi said gratefully.

Her heart felt warm, and she felt that she had been very sorry to Aunt Lin before.

The Crown Prince's wife helped her a lot, calling her over every now and then to ask her about Aunt Lin in detail. Aunt Lin was no longer as noisy and troublesome as before, and now she was very nice to her.

……

Taking some free time today, Lin Qianqian went out from the side door of the Marquis' Mansion and came to the Jade Pavilion, where she was led to the second floor by the waiter.

She sat at the table, picked up the earrings and rings she had asked to make, and looked at them again and again. They were really beautiful, with generous materials and good craftsmanship.

Seeing her take off the ring on her middle finger, Boss Wu had been holding back for a long time: "Ms. Lin, you mentioned earlier that you wanted to buy the blueprints."

Boss Wu observed Lin Qianqian's expression and speculated, "Thirty taels, what do you think?"

Lin Qianqian just smiled and said nothing.

"Forty taels."

……

"make a deal."

Lin Qianqian repeatedly emphasized, "Please keep the transaction between you and me confidential to everyone."

Boss Wu nodded, "Okay."

Lin Qianqian thought about the profit sharing, but then she thought that the Jade Pavilion would not tell her the actual sales amount one by one. Instead of arguing and making people unhappy, it would be better to just take the money. After all, it was just a small thing. Modern aesthetics encompasses ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign, and she can draw many elements.

When Lin Qianqian was walking down the stairs, she met two noble gentlemen with their entourage.

One of them was wearing a dark blue brocade robe, with a noble temperament, and the other was wearing a light green robe, also with an extraordinary temperament. When they saw Lin Qianqian, they were both startled at first, but then they looked straight ahead and walked up the stairs.

Lin Qianqian didn't recognize the two people and just glanced at them quickly.

The aisle was narrow, so Lin Qianqian stopped on the steps in advance, turned sideways and leaned to the right.

As the two sides passed each other, a man accidentally bumped into her shoulder.

Lin Qianqian was in a hurry to return home and didn't bother with him.

"Isn't this the same Lin Qianqian who used to speak arrogantly and disrespect the law? Has she really changed? She has become humble and polite."

The Fourth Prince said, "It seems that she has learned her lesson. But that's not necessarily the case."

The man in green shirt smiled and said, "I have a way to expose her true colors. If we call the Ninth Prince, it will be very interesting."

……

Gu Huai discovered that Liu Ye had been hanging around him recently and even fell down in front of him on purpose the day before yesterday.

It was not until today that he discovered that she was wearing a low-necked skirt that revealed her cleavage.

Liu Ye lowered her body very low, held the teacup with both hands, and slowly handed it to Gu Huai while carefully observing it, "My Lord, please have some tea."

Gu Huai closed the book immediately.

He said coldly, "What do you want to do? Who are you trying to seduce by wearing this?"

Liu Ye came to her senses in shock, and quickly knelt on the ground, kowtowed.

"My Lord, my Lord, I won't dare to do that again. I won't dare to do that again!"

Gu Huai sneered: "Compared to Qianqian, you are not even a hair away from her. Do you think I am interested in you?"

"Put away your inappropriate thoughts and be a good servant in the mansion. If you do it again, I will never forgive you."

"I was wrong! I was wrong!" Liu Ye cried out in fear and kowtowed twice.

"Go back."

"Yes."

When Cheng Jiayao learned about this, she raised her hand and slammed the teacup to the ground, smashing it to pieces with a "bang".

The porcelain cup shattered into pieces in an instant, and the tea and tea leaves flowed all over the floor.

She looked at Liu Ye kneeling on the ground and cursed: "You are so stupid!"

"That idiot prince actually figured it out so quickly! I thought you were so smart! You can't even handle something like this!"

Liu Ye was so frightened that she trembled all over and cried in fear, "Princess, yes, it's because I'm too ugly."

"Auntie Lin is so beautiful, the prince said I can't even compare to her hair."

Cheng Jiayao calmed down immediately.

She actually forgot.

Lin Qianqian's appearance is indeed too outstanding.

Gu Huai sees women like this every day, and he probably doesn't even like ordinary looks.

Cheng Jiayao sat back in her seat in a daze. After a while, she said, "You can go down."

It seems that the prince will not touch willow leaves unless taking medicine.

She had to take two concubines for Gu Huai.

At lunch, Taozhi served dry-fried rock carp, stuffed tofu, bamboo shoot lamb stew, Dinghu vegetarian, and lotus in the pond. During the meal, Gu Huai told Lin Qianqian about this matter.

"I just realized why Liu Ye has been dangling in front of me recently."

Lin Qianqian ate the fish in her mouth, pretended to be surprised, and asked knowingly, "Why?"

Gu Huai raised his chopsticks and said, "She is wearing revealing clothes and heavy makeup. Qianqian, what else could it be for?"

Lin Qianqian blinked, and seemed to slowly react, "So that's how it is. I thought she suddenly started to pay attention to her image."

Gu Huai said, "Wrong, women dress up to please themselves."

Seeing that he was a little proud of himself for seeing through her little trick, Lin Qianqian smiled and said, "You are quite smart. I didn't even notice it."

Gu Huai was even happier after being praised, "I also realized it later. However, when I discovered it, I still felt that I was a little too slow."

Lin Qianqian sighed and asked, "So you don't have that thought about Liu Ye?"

Gu Huai pouted aggrievedly, "No! I already have you, how could I still have thoughts about others."

Lin Qianqian remembered that in the original text, the two concubines were also plain in appearance, but were also slept with by this cannon fodder prince.

She couldn't understand why the female supporting role Lin Qianqian was so beautiful, but he could still make a move on a woman of average appearance. The premise was that he and the female supporting role Lin Qianqian were a loving couple, but there was nothing loving about them.

In the afternoon, strands of sunlight passed through the bamboo curtains, illuminating half of Lin Qianqian's body, making her green pomegranate skirt hot.

She took a nap on the bamboo couch for a while and was woken up by Gu Huai.

The young man was dressed in white, with his hairband blown up by the wind. His face was as white as the flesh of a peeled lychee, and the snow was pink, and even the fine hairs could be seen. For a moment, Lin Qianqian thought she saw a young crane descend to the world.

Gu Huai knew that Lin Qianqian didn't like being confined in the mansion, so he asked her to get up. "Qianqian, I've been invited to a small gathering at Beixuan Palace, and they want to invite you to go too."

"Well, go."

She has to turn her image around.
