"I can't accept this! I can't! Even as a ghost, I'm going to spend eter...
Sure, my ass! This was clearly something that a servant girl could do. And yet, he had easily told her to do this. It was clear that in Marquis Moyu's heart, Nie Sangyu wasn't any different from a servant girl!
Although she already knew this truth, Ji Man was still very upset about this and immediately silently cursed him a hundred times to wear a green hat (i.e. be cheated on).

The next day, when Ji Man went to old madame's courtyard to pay her respects, Ning Mingjie was also there. He had come here earlier than her and was currently sitting on the small couch that was near the window and quietly drinking tea.
"Sangyu, you came here at just the right time," Old madame said with a smile. "Mingjie said he wanted to go out with Errong, but they're not too familiar with this area. How about you bring Errong out and have Qingyun come over to drink wine with Mingjie?"
Tell Qingyun to come here? Ji Man raised her eyebrows and looked at old madame doubtfully. But, she saw old madame giving her a meaningful look.
Ji Man didn't understand what she was trying to hint at, but she still agreed. On the side, Ning Mingjie turned his head and his silver mask slightly glimmered. His eyes held a gentle, smiling intent as he said, "Old Madame, thank you for taking the trouble."
Ji Man still didn't understand. She was only a concubine, ah. How could she accompany the guests outside to stroll around? Although she had a good relationship with Errong, it was strange that old madame would so easily agree to this.
"Young people like to play together. I'm old, so I won't bother the four of you by coming along," Old madame was smiling as she looked at Nie Sangyu. "While you're out, check if that store is selling cold cream and buy two boxes for me."
Old madame had really liked the cold cream and hadn't used any of her other skincare and makeup products since she started using it. She had used up the box of cold cream from before. Shouwu and Danggui had also been using the small box of cold cream and seemed to have outstanding status in the household. Recently, the price of cold cream had decreased and the supply had increased. It was much easier to buy cold cream. This was why old madame asked her to bring back two boxes.
Ji Man agreed with a smile. Right now, she didn't have to worry about Miss Shui's business. She had already made Shuiji's cold cream into a brand. Everyone was using Shuiji's cold cream as a status symbol.
Although she was feeling happy, Ji Man was still thinking about old madame's strange behavior while she went to the southern courtyard with Ning Mingjie. They were going there to look for Ning Errong. Why had old madame wanted her come along? It couldn't be that she was also unhappy about seeing Wen and Ning Mingjie together?
Hearing that Ning Errong was still dressing up inside, Ji Man led Muxu and Ning Mingjie to stand outside to wait. Ning Mingjie seemed to be in a very good mood. The corners of his mouth had a tendency of curving upwards today. His black hair was tied up by a jade crown hat. Even though he was wearing a mask, he still gave off a handsome impression.
