Episode 2: Ling Miaomiao changes her dressing
The capital of Taicang County. Mu Yao planned to continue on her way, but Mu Sheng was worried about her injuries and insisted on waiting until she recovered before leaving.
However, Mu Yao was worried that this was an official residence with many rules and that she and Liu Fuyi would not be able to get used to it. Mu Sheng was not convinced and muttered that he had things to do here. Mu Sheng had always suspected that Ling Miaomiao had taken Liu Fuyi’s talisman and wanted to kill Mu Yao with a borrowed knife.
Unfortunately, he found a strand of Ling Miaomiao’s hair on the door, and the evidence matched up. Mu Sheng checked most of the hair of the people in the mansion, and the rest was already very obvious.
Ling Miaomiao was still immersed in the joy of meeting her father. Her father in real life had passed away. She finally met her long-missed relatives in this world, and she was filled with emotion. When Father Lin heard that the monster had been eliminated, he hurriedly ordered a banquet to entertain Mu Yao, Mu Sheng, Liu Fuyi and others, but the housekeeper reminded him that he was not in good health and should not drink.
Ling Miaomiao heard it and thought, isn’t this the three highs! That won’t do. You still have to listen to the doctor’s words. Health is the first priority. Father Lin was moved to tears by Ling Miaomiao’s caring words. Father Lin thanked Mu Yao and Mu Sheng, but Mu Sheng didn’t pay much attention to him. Ling Miaomiao glared at him, but still stood up to make peace for him and drank for him.
As a result, she passed out after drinking one glass. Afterwards, Mu Yao taught Mu Sheng that he shouldn’t do this, but Mu Sheng couldn’t stand the false people in the world. Father Lin’s position didn’t have the money to repair such a good house.
After Ling Miaomiao sobered up, she had planned to have an extra meal, but the maid only brought a little. It is said that Ling Miaomiao used to be most afraid of eating too much and was unhappy, but now Ling Miaomiao is very different.
Ling Miaomiao was afraid of violating her character setting, so she quickly made up a reasonable reason for herself. Lin Yu’s physical fitness is really too poor. If he wants to pass the level, he must exercise well, so Ling Miaomiao asked someone to prepare a skipping rope and asked Lin’s father to exercise with her.
Lin’s father couldn’t hold on for a while after skipping. He happened to catch a glimpse of Mu Sheng’s figure, and quickly threw the skipping rope to Mu Sheng to let him play with Ling Miaomiao for a while, and then he ran away. Ling Miaomiao chased for a long time but couldn’t catch up. Mu Sheng combed Ling Miaomiao’s hair with bad intentions, and compared them by the way.
Fortunately, Ling Miaomiao secretly took care of her hair. Mu Sheng was not giving up and asked about another maidservant beside her, Hua Yi. Ling Miaomiao then remembered this poor maidservant in the book. It turned out that she wore a bracelet which attracted the attention of Liu Fuyi. Unhappy Lin Yu married her to the cripple in the kitchen. Later, Hua Yi was heartbroken and jumped into the well.
Ling Miaomiao was once again blamed for a huge crime, especially when she heard that Huayi had a blind old mother who depended on her for life, Ling Miaomiao became even more entangled. While telling herself that this was all fake, she found a reasonable reason to save Huayi. When she saw Huayi was about to jump into the well, Ling Miaomiao hurried over there, but accidentally fell next to Mu Sheng on the way.
Ling Miaomiao looked at Mu Sheng, thinking that there was some princess hug plot that was not in the book, but Mu Sheng dodged and passed her. Ling Miaomiao didn’t care about anything else and hurried to the backyard. Mu Sheng also curiously used the instant body spell to go to the backyard first and saved Huayi. Ling Miaomiao comforted Huayi and told her not to think too much and not to mention getting married.
Mu Sheng witnessed everything in front of him and once again doubted Ling Miaomiao’s actions. Ling Miaomiao was quick-witted and escaped, and secretly vowed in his heart that he must survive to the end and not make any mistakes. But the system did not let Ling Miaomiao feel at ease, and immediately issued a second task, replacing Mu Yao’s healing medicine and blocking their time to set off.
Ling Miaomiao sneaked to the kitchen. According to the book, Mu Sheng went out and heard that Mu Yao had abdominal pain, so he hurried back. He suspected that Lin Yu had tampered with the medicine. In order to retaliate, Mu Sheng exposed the corruption case of the county governor’s office, which led to the beheading of the entire Lin family except Lin Yu. Ling Miaomiao comforted herself that she could go home as long as she completed the task, and that she could not control what happened next.
But when Ling Miaomiao saw her father, she was reluctant to leave again. The clever Ling Miaomiao changed the medicine to a tonic. After all, the system did not say that it had to be changed to a laxative. Ling Miaomiao took the medicine to Mu Yao’s room.
Unexpectedly, Mu Sheng had been waiting here all the time, and tasted the medicine himself before giving it to Mu Yao. But unexpectedly, Mu Yao still had unbearable abdominal pain after drinking the medicine, and Mu Sheng immediately killed Ling Miaomiao in anger. Ling Miaomiao opened her eyes again and returned to the scene in the kitchen.
She finally understood that it was she who changed the plot that caused Mu Sheng to come back early and also caused her to be killed early. In order to avoid any flaws, Ling Miaomiao tried again and again, but no matter whether she changed the recipe or stewed the tonic, the final result was that Mu Sheng cut her neck with a knife. I don’t know how many times she was killed.
Ling Miaomiao was heartbroken and numb. This time, Ling Miaomiao numbly brought a bowl of water, thinking that she could pass it smoothly, but she didn’t expect Mu Yao to have abdominal pain again.
Ling Miaomiao suddenly knew what the problem was, and begged Mu Sheng to cut her neck. After reopening, she asked the maid about the pot that Mu Yao boiled medicine for. It turned out that Mu Yao was allergic to heavy metals on the glaze!
The medicine was boiled again, but Mu Yao didn’t react this time. The novice Ren Er finally finished, and Ling Miaomiao was so moved that she hugged Mu Yao and cried. Mu Sheng was stunned when he saw this. Liu Fuyi brought Mu Yao some small toys to heal her wounds. Mu Sheng looked at Ling Miaomiao who was playing with Mu Yao in the room and said in a weird way, I’m afraid she doesn’t need it anymore.
