After being reborn, her aloof ex-husband and her crazy deceased husband got into a fight.

"What are you trying to do now?!"

Zhu Xiaoxiao looked at Gan Cai'er warily.

Gan Cai'er looked at her with a smile, but didn't say anything.

Gan Cai'er's idea was simple: if no one saw the beauty of the new dress, then let people see it.

How can I make it visible to others?

Look, why don't we just let Zhu Xiaoxiao wear it and go out shopping?

That's what she thought, and that's what she said.

Then, with a "bang," an embroidered pillow hit Gan Cai'er squarely on the head.

"You want me to wander the streets? Gan Cai'er, do you want to die?!" Zhu Xiaoxiao cursed angrily.

"Go wander around by yourself if you want!"

"Exactly! What respectable young lady would show her face in public like that!" Huan'er said indignantly.

Gan Cai'er touched her nose, looking somewhat embarrassed.

Oh, she forgot about that. Danzhou Prefecture is not like Qingshui Town. Women from noble families travel by carriage or cover their faces with veils when they go out, and they do not easily show their faces.

Xiao Hong was displeased to see her mistress being rebuffed, and retorted with a stiff neck, "If we can't stroll on the street, we can stroll at banquets or parties."

“My young lady thinks Miss Zhu looks beautiful in this dress, and she wants more people to see it. What’s wrong with that?”

Gan Cai'er's eyes lit up. This is a great idea!

“You want to attend a gathering of aristocratic families? That’s not easy,” Yunniang said, shaking her head.

"The interactions within aristocratic circles are all fixed; without an introduction, it's impossible to get in."

"Then what kind of person should we recommend? Isn't Boss Zhang always making clothes for Magistrate Qian's family? Even he won't do?" Gan Cai'er asked.

"At most, he only interacts with the housekeeper of the Qian family. How could he possibly get to see the master and mistress? Let alone the young ladies of the mansion."

"However, your mention of the Qian family reminds me of something."

"The third young lady of the Qian family has reached marriageable age, and Madam Qian has been looking for a husband for her recently. I heard that she is going to organize an autumn outing to Nanshan. A few days ago, she even asked Boss Zhang to make new clothes for her."

Gan Cai'er was overjoyed to hear this; wasn't this exactly what she wanted? It was truly a wish fulfilled by heaven!

The only thing I need to worry about now is how to get the invitations.

What Yunniang considered difficult, Gan Cai'er was full of confidence.

Because she remembered that the Qian family had come to Lan Tingzhou to ask for paintings more than once or twice, it shouldn't be difficult to exchange Lan Tingzhou's painting for an invitation.

"You want to go on the autumn outing to Nanshan organized by Madam Qian?" Lan Tingzhou raised an eyebrow slightly.

Gan Cai'er nodded vigorously.

"So, you're asking me to agree to paint 'Bitter Cold Picture' for Qian Lang?" Lan Tingzhou laughed in exasperation.

"Do you know that the reason I haven't agreed is because the azurite needed for this painting is extremely rare, and there isn't any available in Danzhou Prefecture?"

Seeing Lan Tingzhou's unfriendly expression, Gan Cai'er picked at her fingers and lowered her voice hesitantly.

"You can agree first, and whether you draw it or not in the end is up to you."

Lan Tingzhou closed his eyes, feeling a surge of anger rushing to his head...

"Are you willing to make me break my promise just to get that invitation?"

Gan Cai'er fell silent.

Seeing Lan Tingzhou's cold expression, she stopped talking, lowered her head, and returned to her bedroom dejectedly.

If she doesn't want to draw, then she won't; she'll find another way! Gan Cai'er pouted, tossing and turning, unable to sleep soundly all night.

That night, Lan Tingzhou did not return to his bedroom.

Although Lan Tingzhou was studying at Luming Academy, he still missed Cai'er and would take time to come back every now and then.

Each time he returned, although he wouldn't always make love, he always made sure to share a bed with Gan Cai'er and sleep in each other's arms. This time, however, was an exception.

The next day, when Xiao Hong was helping Gan Cai'er get up, she nagged her that the study light had been on all night. It wasn't until dawn that the son-in-law came out of his room and went straight to the academy without even having breakfast.

Gan Cai'er was stunned. Was he so angry he couldn't sleep all night? It's just a painting, it can't be that serious, can it?!

However, ten days later, a servant from the Qian family suddenly came to Gan Cai'er's door with an invitation. It was an invitation to the Nanshan Autumn Outing, sincerely inviting Lan Tingzhou and his family to join the grand event.

Gan Cai'er was stunned.

The servants of the Qian family were all smiles, praising Lan Tingzhou's superb painting skills.

It turned out that the day before yesterday, Lord Qian had presented one of his landscape paintings to General Wu, which General Wu greatly appreciated. As a result, Lord Qian was highly praised and made quite a name for himself.

Gan Cai'er suddenly realized. So that night, he didn't stay angry all night, but instead spent the whole night drawing?

Looking at the invitation in her hand, she felt a warmth in her heart, along with a touch of reproach.

This person is like a mute, not saying a word.
