“Princess, are you okay, why are you not replying” the thin maid stared at her mistress who was lost in her own thoughts, when she was not awake no one was calling her a doctor while her second sister was only splashed with some water on her face the imperial doctor was called to check up on her but no one for her mistress
“I am okay Shen Mia; can I get some water please” She knew that today was the Banquet where her father will ask the emperor to raise her second sisters title and her step mother gave her a very dull yellow dress with so many ornaments that she wore all which made the crown prince hate her more.
“I Begged and cried to the mistress to call you a doctor but she said that you will get fine” Shen Mia started telling her what happened that she went to the head maid but no one helped her and told her that her stepmother sent the dress and the ornaments and gave her a red tea
Xi Lanyon started drinking tea and
“Spat, what bullshit drink is this, ewww my tongue feels so bitter” Xi Lanyon started patting her tongue trying to remove the taste of the tea
Shen Mia was shocked to hear so bad words from her lady “You shouldn’t use so bad words lady it doesn’t suit the ladies, but where did you even learn this word” Shen Mia forgot what the mistress said about the tea all her focus was on the bad word that she used.
Hearing her maid’s words Xi Lanyon remember that it was the old era not the modern era where she cannot use bad words
“I just heard it from the local when I went outside, can I have something to eat before we get ready” Xi Lanyon said while moving her hands on her stomach
Shen Mia was shocked to see her mistress doing these things which a lady should not do but she did not say anything and went to bring her food
She brought back the food and saw her lady sitting on the floor and patting beside her “Come sit let’s have a meal together”
The narrative has been taken without permission. Report any sightings.
Shen Mia never thought that her lady will tell her to have a meal together she always used to miss meals or tried to sit together with her family where they always used to ignore her
They never used to wait for her meals
“It’s not good for a maid to have food with her mistress” Shen Mia said while she started serving the princess her food
“Please Shen Mia come and have a meal, first only my family ignore me, I thought you are my true Friend and won’t ignore my wishes” Xi Lanyon said because she really wanted her to sit together to have meals together its boring to have a meal alone
In her previous life she sat with the patients or her best friend to have her meals. It was the best time of her day. They started having the meal Xi Lanyon thought that the meal had no spices or anything, it was very simple but still fine.
Shen Mia helped her to take bath which she enjoyed very much she never had anyone washing her hair, after bathing she came to her room and checked herself in the mirror
Woah she was so pretty she had long silver hair, she was so fair and thing even her facial features were so pretty now she remembered that in the book she was described as a cold hearted beautiful princess now she knows why her stepmother used to hate her, her second sister was not that fair, so she might look prettier that her if she dressed up nicely.
Thanks to Shen Mia ’s care there was no change in her face She also used to apply lots of makeup because her stepmother used to say that it made her look more pretty but it only made her look disgusting.
She saw the pale yellow dress with so many ornaments that she wore which made the crown prince hate her more. She though wearing too many ornaments made her look like that her family used to love her but it was only a facade.
She did not want to impress the crown prince or anyone but she cannot wear this dress.
“Shen Mia can you please find me a better dress than this”
“Apologies my lady this is the most fine dress that you have right now all the other dresses are very thin which you cannot wear to the party”
Huhh Xi Lanyon was shocked that was she a poor princess or what even after her parents died in her previous life, she still had so many dresses thanks to her warm relatives. Her parents were in army who died in a bomb explosion but all their comrades also helped her to overcome the loss of her parents.
"Go and pawn these ornaments also take my older ornaments and bring me a simple elegant dress with a simple hairclip" Shen Mia was shocked but she collected all the ornaments and sold it at the thrift shop.
She got around 100 teals of silver through which she purchased a long pink colored gown with a white jade hairpin.
