Mu Ning turned around only to find a woman dressed in what seemed to be a Tang suit of the interstellar era.
Before her transmigration, she might have found it high and mighty, but now... she only felt that it was another fashion disaster
After studying the historical era of different worlds, she had the chance to glimpse the designs of the Tang suit, and... they were tacky pink with a strange kind of carvings.
The popular Tang suit didn't belong to the Tang dynasty; it belonged to the Qing-era Manchu clothing and got popular in the 20th century.
The women of the real Tang dynasty used to wear Ruqun, a short blouse on the top and a long, high-waisted skirt tied just under the bust, often paired with a long, flowing shawl (pibao).
Only now did Mu Ning realize how ridiculous the interstellar fashion design was.
The woman, who was no more than 50 years old, had her hair styled in a neat bun, with an imposing aura; she looked authoritative.
"Grandmother! Grandmother, thank god you have arrived; this woman is trying to poison Brother Liam's children by feeding them poison, and when I ate it for testing, she kicked me!" Kaylee rushed toward the woman with tears in her eyes.
If it wasn't for her constant chewing gesture and look of bliss... her words would have seemed feasible.
However, the so-called grandmother was blind, because the next second, she walked over to Mu Ning and lifted her hand to slap Mu Ning.
Mu Ning blocked the attack and sighed.
"Hey, Granny, control your hand; otherwise, I will have to chop it off."
Her bold words made the entire room fall silent.
"You... you b..." The granny began to curse, but Mu Ning interrupted her.
"B*tch? Was that what you were going to say? Indeed, like grandmother, like granddaughter. Both of you are brainless and way too arrogant."
With that, Mu Ning pushed the granny away, who stumbled and fell on the ground with a thud.
"Aiyyo! Ah!! Help me! This Mu Ning has gone crazy! She is killing me!"
Mu Ning ignored the old woman and turned her attention to her own babies... only to realize that they had left at some point with the food.
'They returned to their room? Sigh... attracting their attention is difficult.'
With her babies not there, Mu Ning lost interest and returned to her room.
That night, there was a lot of chaos going on, but Mu Ning didn't step out of her room.
Rather, she focused on her body and inserted the silver needles she had in her body to treat herself.
Without herbs, she couldn't force out the poison, but for now, Mu Ning suppressed it.
She vowed to find the herbs to treat herself.
The next day, when Mu Ning woke up, it was already late in the morning. Stretching her limbs, she sighed.
Being omnipotent was great, but the side effects were truly terrible. To make sure that she wasn't punished by the Heavenly Dao, she had incurred a side effect; her sleeping time increased.
From 7 hours to 12 hours. Sometimes, if she overuses her knowledge, she could remain asleep for even 24 hours.
After checking on her condition, Mu Ning realized the red, painful acne on her face had reduced. As for her weight... it remained the same.
It was within her expectations.
Soon she came up with an exercise routine, and by 2 pm, she was done with her exercise.
With a quick shower, she left her room and was relieved when she didn't see Kaylee or that old granny.
Just like before she entered the kitchen. Today, she decided to make scallion pancakes.
She first took a bowl and added plain flour and a pinch of salt. She slowly poured in water and mixed it with her hand. She kneaded it until the dough felt soft and smooth. Then she covered it and let it rest for a short while.
After resting, Mu Ning divided the dough into small balls. She rolled each ball into a thin circle. She brushed a little oil on top and sprinkled chopped scallions and a bit of salt over it.
She then rolled the dough into a long strip and coiled it into a spiral. She pressed it gently and rolled it flat again into a pancake shape.
Mu Ning heated a pan and added a little oil. She cooked the pancake on medium heat until it turned golden and crisp on both sides. The scallions gave off a warm smell as they cooked.
When it was done, she removed it from the pan and cut it into pieces.
Just like yesterday, Wu Jiao, other servants, and her twins were standing at the door.
Mu Ning ate two bites before she presented it to the two twins.
Just as the twins were hesitating, Wu Jiao's voice echoed, "Madam... if you want, I can test it for little sir and little madam."
Compared to the cold suspicion before, his tone improved, and he even started to show respect in his eyes.
Before Mu Ning could reply though, she heard the system say,
