Just as Zi'er left, she saw Ming Shuang, the maidservant who served Zhan Duo'er, coming over. She asked cautiously, "Madam, our young lady asked me to find out what color clothes you will be wearing. She wants to be careful. She doesn't want to clash with you, the mistress of the Marquis' Mansion, and cause misunderstandings!"

Lin Yiwan's heart trembled. Zhan Duoer was being too clever for her own good.

On the surface, he seems to respect her, but in reality, no one knows what evil ambitions he has.

She answered without hesitation: "I should wear this bright crimson dress to show off my dominance as the mistress, right?"

Ming Shuang nodded: "I will tell our young lady!"

After watching her leave, Lin Yiwan waved at Zi'er and said, "Go and see what color Zhan Duo'er is wearing. Once you've confirmed it, come back and tell me!"

Not long after, Ling'er hurried back and said that Zhan Duo'er was wearing a pink veil and a purple brocade skirt.

Lin Yiwan followed suit and changed into the same outfit as her before going out.

Zhan Duo'er and Old Madam Lou had already grown impatient waiting at the door. She said angrily, "Does she really think she's the mistress of the Marquis' Mansion? She actually made us wait? She's so shameless!"

Madam Lou rolled her eyes: "Isn't she the mistress? Duo'er, we have to face reality!"

Zhan Duoer clenched her fists tightly: "No, she won't be soon!"

Old Madam Lou didn't think so. She felt that Lin Yiwan was very strange. Ever since she entered the Marquis' Mansion, she seemed to be a prophet and could always avoid any conspiracy against her.

If it weren't for Madam Zhan forcing her this time, she wouldn't have wanted to go to Lingyan Temple at all. The lover beside her came up with a new trick, making her want to stick to him every day.

Seeing that she was losing interest, Zhan Duoer couldn't help but remind her: "Grandma, you have to understand that we are all in the same boat!"

Madam Lou nodded perfunctorily: "I know, you grew up by my side since you were a child, how could I not feel sorry for you?"

Zhan Duoer finally suppressed her anger, and the impatience in her eyes grew stronger.

Don't miss the opportunity!

She said quickly, "Come here, go see why the Marquis hasn't appeared yet? We must not delay the auspicious time for worshiping Buddha!"

Before the maid could respond, Ling'er called out, "Here we are! Where's our Marquis's carriage?"

Zhan Duoer looked over carefully and almost fell off the carriage.

She was shocked. Why was Lin Yiwan wearing the same color clothes as her?

Sensing that something was wrong with her, Madam Lou approached her curiously: "What's wrong? Are you acting like you've seen a ghost?"

Lin Yiwan smiled and said, "Good morning, auntie!"

Madam Lou replied with an embarrassed look on her face, "Good morning, but why are you wearing the same clothes as Duo'er? And you have a veil on your face, and you are not disfigured!"

Lin Yiwan explained softly, "Maybe it was because I was so anxious and angry yesterday. When I woke up this morning, I had a few pimples on my face. I felt it was unsightly, so I found a veil to cover them up."

"As for this dress, I hadn't originally planned to wear it. I had a small accident when I was going out, so I just picked a color at random. I didn't expect that it would clash with Duo'er's color!"

Zhan Duoer was so angry that her heart was beating fast. If it weren't for her grandmother's thorough plan, she would have thought that Lin Yiwan had done it on purpose.

But now, it is impossible to ask her to change her clothes again.

She could only speak unhappily: "Then don't dawdle, get on the carriage quickly. If you don't want to pray for the Marquis's Mansion, you don't have to go. No one is begging you!"

Lin Yiwan really can't stand her bad temper, and she even dares to act tough with her. She hasn't suffered enough.

She didn't hesitate any longer and said lazily, "Since Duo'er said so, I really don't want to go. After all, I worked hard in the palace all day yesterday, and my legs and feet haven't rested yet. I'll go and tell the old lady, and it's the same to go to the temple to pray another day!"

After saying that, she turned and left.

Zhan Duo'er's eyes turned red with anxiety. She hurriedly stopped him: "You, you stop right now!"

Lin Yiwan turned a deaf ear and walked back.

Zhan Duoer quickly stumbled out of the carriage and followed Lin Yiwan with an uneasy look on her face: "Aunt, I was wrong. Please don't be so harsh!"

Lin Yiwan looked at her in surprise: "So Duo'er was calling me. You were calling me just now, you and I thought you were calling some maid!"

Zhan Duoer's expression was complicated and obscure, and even though she was covered with a veil, one could see that she was guilty.

She tried her best to suppress the hatred in her heart and said, "Aunt, I was unruly just now. Please don't argue with me, okay?"

Old Madam Lou also spoke kindly, "Yiwan, as the head of the family, you should be tolerant. Duo'er is still young, so we will teach her slowly in the future!"

Lin Yiwan argued seriously: "You are wrong, she is not young anymore, she is half a year older than me!"

Old Madam Lou froze all over. She almost forgot that Zhan Yan had married a young wife.

Originally, she should have married Zhan Yu!

Oh, what is going on?

She smiled awkwardly: "No matter what, Duo'er has apologized to you, what else do you want? If you delay any longer, you will really miss this auspicious time for worshiping Buddha!"

Zhan Duoer gritted her teeth in anger, raised her hand and slapped her cheek hard: "Auntie, are you satisfied with Duoer's self-punishment like this?"

Lin Yiwan frowned: "Look at what you said, it's like I, the mistress, am bullying you. I didn't ask you to punish yourself!"

Zhan Duoer nodded without hesitation: "Yes, Auntie didn't let me punish myself, I volunteered to do it!"

Lin Yiwan pretended to be helpless and said, "Since you've said this, it would be rude of me if I didn't go with you to worship Buddha. Let's go!"

Her voice was so loud that the people watching around could hear it.

They couldn't help but whisper, "This girl from the Zhan family is really interesting. Madam Yan clearly doesn't want to go to worship Buddha, so why force her to go?"

Another person subconsciously echoed, "This wealthy family has many twists and turns. Who knows what plans are waiting for this Madam Yan on the way to worship Buddha!"

Hearing these words, Lin Yiwan, who was sitting in the carriage, smiled.

At this moment, Zhan Duoer was probably so angry that her nose was crooked.

As expected, she was right. When Zhan Duoer returned to the carriage, she swept all the tea sets to the ground, which scared Madam Lou.

She rebuked him dissatisfiedly, "Duo'er, if you destroy one of these tea sets, there will be one less. Do you think the Marquis' Mansion is still the same as before? How long can you ruin your grandmother's wealth?"

Zhan Duoer suddenly choked with grievance: "Grandma, don't I even have the right to smash the tea set now? I am your granddaughter, the only girl in the Zhan family!"

Old Madam Lou curled her lips and couldn't help complaining in her heart, it's already this time, and she's still acting like a young lady in front of her.
