After the mind-reading and gossip-eating incident, officials in the imperial city were demoted one a

"Miss An, you have good taste. Why don't you push the door open and take a closer look inside?"

An Ruyi then realized it wasn't her maid's voice. Turning around, she felt a little awkward, her face flushing, and she stammered:

"I...I was just curious. I heard there was an extremely handsome young man here, so I just wanted to take a look...hehe..."

An Ruyi's round face was like a pancake, fair with a rosy glow, and her cheeks were full. Fortunately, her eyes were naturally big, so even though she was too fat, she still looked somewhat cute.

"Girl, who are you? I've never seen you before." An Ruyi looked Ye Yaoyao up and down.

“If the person inside is Ye Li’an, then I am his sister.”

"Hehe... little sister... ah!" An Ruyi laughed somewhat awkwardly, her face turning even redder after being caught peeking at a handsome man by his sister.

"Didn't you say you wanted to take this opportunity to marry a handsome man? Aren't you going in to see how you're going to get married?"

The system provided An Ruyi with information: this girl has loved eating braised pork knuckle since she was a child. She was originally plump and not fat, but her figure has gradually changed since two years ago, and now she weighs almost 200 pounds.

She was famous in the capital city. Although she was the legitimate daughter of the General of the State, no one dared to propose marriage to her because of her physique.

Madam An broke her elbow, and even though she insisted on exercising every day, she couldn't lose the weight. An Ruyi simply let go of her worries and decided that if she couldn't get married, she wouldn't. Instead, she started to enjoy looking at handsome men.

It turns out that she heard someone say that her older brother was changing clothes, and someone encouraged her to come and peek, so that she could scream for molestation when her brother was disheveled.

Because of their reputations, the two families are sure to get together, but luckily the girl has the desire but not the courage.

An Ruyi lowered her head and stammered, "Miss Ye, I know I was wrong. I just wanted to take a look; I really didn't have the guts."

Hehe... Don't worry, this will only happen once, and there won't be a next time.

"Haha, luckily we arrived at the right time, otherwise Li An's innocence would have been in jeopardy."

An Ruyi was a bit chubby, but she wasn't a bad person, and Wei Shaohan still had the mind to tease her.

Xin Chuli stared at An Ruyi for a while, then suddenly pulled Ye Yaoyao aside and asked:

Is she sick?

"I've never seen a girl look like this before," Ye Yaoyao nodded.

"Yes, there is a disease called obesity."

An Ruyi has beautiful features; if she were to lose weight, she would be a stunning beauty. Wei Shaohan leaned closer and whispered to them:

"The General's Mansion has five male members, and this is the apple of his eye. He cherishes her very much. She used to love to eat but never gained weight, but she has become like this in the last two years."

"Little sister Yaoyao, do you have any way to cure her? The An family is very worried. Whoever can cure her will become a benefactor to the An family."

Ye Yaoyao looked An Ruyi up and down, and nodded:

"We need to find out why she gained weight."

An Ruyi felt a little flustered as she watched the group of people huddled together, glancing at her from time to time.

She pulled her maid, Xiao Qiu, to stand in front of her, but given Xiao Qiu's size, it was no use.

Are they plotting how to deal with me?

An Ruyi's voice carried a hint of unease, and Xiao Qiu straightened up as she mustered her courage to comfort her.

"Don't worry, Miss will be fine. Our General's Mansion is not easy to bully."

If you're scared, we'll go find the Fifth Young Master.

An Ruyi nodded, and the two of them, master and servant, began to move at a snail's pace, trying to slip away.

The door to the side room creaked open, and Ye Lian walked out, dressed in a moon-white robe.

His face was handsome, like a jade crown, and his clear, snow-white eyes added to his charm.

An Ruyi turned her head and froze the moment she saw Ye Li'an, completely forgetting her plan to sneak away.

"Brother Ye is out."

Ye Li'an noticed that An Ruyi was staring intently at him, and he knew that someone was spying on him from outside.

An Ruyi suddenly came to her senses, realized her lapse in composure, and quickly lowered her head, her cheeks flushed.

Seeing this, Wei Shaohan chuckled and teased, "Li An, Miss An has fallen for you at first sight! Spying on you while you're changing..."

"No, that's not true! I didn't see anything! It's a misunderstanding! It's all a misunderstanding!"

An Ruyi quickly waved her hand in denial and hurriedly offered an explanation.

Waaah... She's destined to never get married, so it's okay if she takes a few more glances at handsome young men!

An Ruyi felt a pang of resentment in her heart, but then thought that she had only been looking at people and hadn't done anything of great importance.

Haha! This girl really does have the desire but not the courage.

"Brother, why are you changing clothes here?"

"While helping Miss Zhao pick up her handkerchief in the orchard, my coat was accidentally torn by a broken branch."

While I was changing, I heard a noise outside. It turned out to be Miss An outside.

"Young Master Ye, I... I just came here to take a look around."

Ye Li'an, having heard Ye Yaoyao's thoughts, naturally knew what she was doing, and couldn't help but smile slightly, finding this girl interesting.

“Miss An, a young lady values ​​her reputation. Please do not act in this way in the future.”

"Oh! Okay!" As long as she doesn't pursue the matter, it's fine.

An Ruyi nodded vigorously, and because of the large movements, her whole body trembled, making people laugh at her appearance.

"Ms. An, are you still gaining weight?"

"Yes, I don't know why? The doctor said it's because I eat too much, even though I eat vegetarian food and exercise."

An Ruyi was distressed. Facing the ridicule of those outside, she felt increasingly annoyed and dared not go out.

This time, my cousin and fifth brother dragged me out. Thinking of the love and care my family has for me, I felt a little better.

"Miss An, I think your obesity might be related to your diet. I have some medical knowledge, how about I take a look?"

An Ruyi shook her head in frustration, having given up hope of treatment.

"My family has consulted many doctors, but none of them could tell the cause. I wonder if it's because I used to eat too much pork knuckle. Now I can gain weight even from drinking plain porridge."

"It has nothing to do with that. It's possible that you ate something you shouldn't have." Ye Yaoyao looked at her meaningfully.

"Impossible. My young lady eats very light meals every day and has not eaten any of the foods that the doctor told her not to eat."

Xiao Qiu quickly defended her young mistress.

"You've eaten a lot of pork knuckles before and never gained weight, which means you're not prone to weight gain."

"If Miss An trusts me, I can take a look; perhaps I can find the reason."

Ye Yaoyao patiently analyzed the situation and then waited for her decision.

An Ruyi had long given up hope on this matter. She looked at her maid, Xiao Qiu, and after thinking for a moment, she nodded. Just looking at it, she felt it was worth a try.

Encouraged by someone, An Ruyi gritted her teeth and mustered her courage to reply, "Then I'll have to trouble Miss Ye."

The two sat down in the pavilion. Ye Yaoyao listened to her pulse and asked a few more questions, eventually finding out what was wrong with her.

"You did eat something you shouldn't have."

Ye Yaoyao nodded affirmatively, and An Ruyi eagerly pressed for an answer:

"what?"

"A drug that can make pigs gain weight rapidly."
