309: Do you want such good fortune?

Pei Nianwei's eyes swept over You Xiangrui, her face still adorned with a shallow, affable smile. Even while speaking to her mother, her tone maintained a touch of coquetry. "Mother, my cousin has come to the capital, so I should show her some hospitality. I plan to take her to the Merits Theater Tower to watch a show, not anywhere else. What could you possibly be concerned about?"

At the mention of the Merits Theater Tower, Duchess Wu'an's eyelid twitched. Of all places, why did she have to choose that one? Hadn't the Crown Princess made a fuss there a few times?

Duchess Wu'an was naturally fond of her daughter, but this matter concerned the family's future. She couldn't help but sternly address her daughter, "What nonsense are you talking? The theater is bustling all the time, your cousin is frail. What if she gets hurt in the crowd? Once your cousin has regained her strength in a few days, you sisters can go out together."
