Since she knew the news in advance, Manbao got up very early the next day, woke up early, washed early, dressed in her official attire early, and then obediently sat at the dining table waiting for breakfast.
Junior Ms.Qian saw her get up so early for the first time, first incredulously looked at the dark sky outside, then went to check the hourglass in the main room. Manbao immediately said, "Sister-in-law, don't bother, I purposely got up early."
She said with a serious face, "I haven't attended the court assembly for a long time; it's rare to attend once, so naturally, I have to get up early to prepare."
Junior Ms.Qian didn't know about her impending award, felt it made sense, and nodded.
She asked, "Do you want pancakes or noodles?"
Manbao then hesitated, "Do I have to choose?"
She wanted to choose both.
