22 Su Heyu is going to get married
"What does that sister mean by?" The smile at the corners of Mu Nianqing's mouth remained unchanged, but the corners of his eyes darkened cold.
"Please ask my sister to beg my father for me." Mu Xilan couldn't help tightening Mu Nianqing's hand and choked a little, "Dad loves his sister the most. As long as my sister says a few words for me, Dad will think about it even if he doesn't agree on the spot. I... I really don't want to be a concubine... Sister, can you help me?"
Unexpectedly, Mu Nianqing pulled out his hand and said in a lukewarm voice, "My sister's words were wrong. Marriage has always been decided by parents. How can I make fun of myself because of my sister's marriage? What Dad has decided has never changed because of me. My sister thought about how to regret her marriage. It's better to think about how to get along with her wife after marrying Mr. Chu!"
Mu Nianqing's words were extremely indifferent. Mu Xiran stared with a pair of bright eyes, crying full of grievances, and asked again, "Doesn't my sister really help me? Or does even my sister want me to marry someone as a concubine?! Or... or the third sister blamed what happened in Yinyue Temple a few days ago!"
"It's not that my sister doesn't help you, but that this matter is related to the relationship between Mufu and Chufu. Please understand." No longer willing to say one more word, Mu Nianqing returned to the desk and prepared to immerse himself in continuing to copy the scriptures.
With a bang, the precious teacup was swept to the ground by Mu Xiren, and Mu Xiren's eyes were red. "The third sister actually complained that I didn't speak for the second lady that day." After saying that, he ran out.
There was no other smell in the room. Mu Nianqing looked at a smashed teacup on the ground in disgust, "Nanluo, clean it up quickly." There are no more words about what Mu Xiyan did and said.
walked out of the aromatic courtyard and returned to the corridor again. Mu Xilan took the copied scriptures in Nanxiao's hand and was meditating.
At this time, Nan Xiao took the scriptures and said in surprise: "Miss San is imitating the handwriting of Miss Four to copy the scriptures. Nanluo, who had heard from the Aromatic Academy, mentioned that in addition to writing good handwriting, Miss San is also good at imitating her handwriting. I didn't expect it to be so similar.
Mu Nianqing's eyes also lit up, "As you say, it suits me." There was also a hidden joy in his tone, "I didn't expect to come to Wangxue Pavilion, and the harvest was not small."
Nan Xiao seemed to have heard Mu Xilan's intention and asked, "Then we don't need to go to other ladies, do we?"
"Go! Of course, I still have to go. We have to be foolproof." Mu Xilan's footsteps were a little brisk.
When the three arrived at the fourth lady's water dew courtyard, there was a noise of two women. Mu Xilan reached out and stopped Nan Xiao and Nan Shi, "Well, we don't need to get in. That's enough."
That night, there was no starlight in the vast night sky, only the crescent moon passed through the thin clouds.
In Shuiluyuan, Mu Miao, who had dinner, was embroidered with a brocade handkerchief, and the maidservant beside him stood quietly beside him. After a while, there was a gentle knock on the door. Both of them looked up at the door, but the door was open, but there was no one at the door.
"Nanqiu, go and see what's going on?"
"Yes, miss." Nanqiu walked out of the door and looked around. There was no one under the cold moonlight. She stepped into the threshold and inadvertently saw a paper ball at the threshold. She picked it up and gave it to her lady curiously.
Mu Miao also only regarded it as a little joke from the house. Unexpectedly, she opened it and stared at her, and her cheeks were still red. She squeezed her mouth and suppressed her smile, but for a moment, she said calmly, "It's the fifth sister who wants to apologize for what happened in the morning. Don't follow me. I'll come as soon as I go."
Nanqiu knew Mu Miao's nature, so he nodded obediently and returned to his room.
Mu Miao took a cloak and walked out of the courtyard very quickly. The petite figure did not attract anyone's attention at night. There was a bamboo forest between the garden and the backyard. Mu Miao went to the bamboo forest according to the paper ball and found the only messy stone place in the bamboo forest. She sat on a smooth stone and lowered her head thinking about the man's beauty.
"You are so bold that you are not afraid to sit here alone." Under the moonlight, Chu Luo, dressed in a brocade white shirt, came with a charming smile on the corners of his thin lips. Before Mu Miao could speak, he stepped forward and hugged the young girl, "You are the most beautiful among your sisters."
Women like to listen to sweet words, not to mention Mu Miao, who has never had an affair. She didn't know how happy she was, but she said, "You are the only one with a poor mouth. So, why do you want to marry your second sister? Have you seen her?
"What I like is just her identity, the granddaughter of the Yi family. Don't you know that in the four major families in the capital, the Yi family and the Chu family have always had some grudges, and the Yi family refused to take the initiative to reconcile with the Chu family. If I can make your second sister like me, wouldn't it help the Chu family from it? Chu Luo had walked into the grotto with Mu Miao in his arms and pressed her on the stone.
Mu Miao let the man's hand light her body, but she kept a trace of sobriety, "What if the second sister is difficult to see?"
"Then... I'll marry you." Chu Luo said and bent down and covered the woman's soft pink lips. Mu Miao did not hear the joke in Chu Luo's tone, and the fire between the two became more and more intense for a while.
After a long time, when the crescent moon penetrated into the thick clouds again, the two of them put on their clothes and pushed them out. Although Chu Luo could not see the shy blush on Mu Miao's face in the middle of the night, Chu Luo held her hot palm and could feel Mu Miao's shyness and pleasure at this time. Chu Luo, who often rolled in the smoke and dust, did not forget to kiss her on the forehead when he left.
"Tomorrow, I'll wait for you here."
In the early morning, the whole city was shrouded in ethereal clouds and fog. As soon as the sky was bright, it began to drizzle. Almost everyone in Mu's house was still sleeping. Mu Xi in Xiaoxiangyuan faintly heard the sound of raindrops outside. She turned over comfortably and felt sleepless when she was ready to sleep again.
"Miss, are you awake?" Nanxiao couldn't hide the smile on her face and then said, "What happened last night was done."
Mu Xi's bright eyes lit up, "I just hope everything goes well."
"Are you ready to get up or sleep a little longer?" Nan Xiao went to the window to open a little gap.
For some reason, today's rainy day suddenly reminded Mu Xiran of the scene of the day he passed away in his previous life. The uncomfortable mood of resentment has been suppressed in the bottom of his heart for a long time and suddenly gushed out, and he couldn't help feeling some pain in his heart. Then she suppressed these moods and turned over and got out of bed. "Go and prepare hot water."
After grooming, Mu Xiran sat in front of the bronze mirror. The woman in the bronze mirror was clearer than her eyebrows more than 20 days ago, and her thin cheeks were also a little delicate in the slow recuperation. She reached out and touched her face and smiled at herself inside.
Nan Xiao skillfully helped her roll a simple bun and insert two or three jade hairpins. "In another two years, the lady will also be a beauty."
"It's just a look." Mu Xian replied faintly, got up and walked to the things sent by Fang's house, touched the exquisite box, and couldn't help telling Nanyi, "Go and prepare the brazier and burn all the rice paper here."
Nan Xiao recently figured out Mu Xiran's personality and never left a handle on others to do things, so he silently did things according to Mu Xiran's instructions.
After a moment, the housekeeper Nan bowed his body and walked in.
After Mu Xiran and Yuguang saw it, he came out busy and said, "What's wrong with Uncle Nan?"
"The old man asked the second lady to go to the study. She has something to say." Butler Nan learned the lesson for the first time, and his tone was more respectful.
"Oh? I don't know what's going on." Mu Xilan leaned obliquely by the door frame, and the lazy voice was soft and slow, dragging with a little blurred ending.
Housekeeper Nan answered truthfully, "The second lady must have heard about Mr. Chu's intention to come to Mufu." But the words are just a point.
Mu Xilan just looked at the housekeeper Nan, and unexpectedly opened his pink lips gently, "Okay, Uncle Nan, take me there."
Nan Xiao has prepared a bright red oil paper umbrella for Mu Xilan.
At the door of the front yard, Uncle Nan bowed and pushed away.
Mu Xi ran slowly towards Mu Qingyang's study, but stopped when he heard the sound inside.
"Now that the marriage between Su and Yu and the second sister has been decided, and the happy event will take place next month. Nowadays, the four major families are eager to consolidate their power through marriage. Master Mu doesn't want to be a small city owner all his life. Chu Luoqing's voice seemed to be very demagogic.
Master Mu didn't say anything for a long time, and he could only hear the sound of a slight pace.
Mu Xiran, who stood outside the door, was pale and trembled slightly. Su Heyu was actually going to marry, and she was also married to Chu Luo's second sister, Chu Xuexin, who was known as the "first beauty" of the prosperous dynasty!
Mu Xi'an only felt that her already fragile heart and after hearing the news, it broke into pieces, and the sharp sharp corners of the fragments pierced into every part of her body. The pain was unbearable!
Just when Mu Xi was in a daze, Mu Qingyang's voice came from inside:
"Hasn't Princess Zhaohua just passed away for less than a month? Doesn't the Su family care about the emperor's feelings at all? After all, who in the Sheng Dynasty knows that the emperor loves this princess Zhaohua the most. Even he mentioned it with great emotion.
"Hmm, it's just an arrogant princess. How can the Su family be willing to marry such a useless person? It is difficult to hide the irony between Chu Luo's words.
Mu Xi ran almost couldn't stand after hearing this and hurriedly held the door frame with his hand.
"Miss! What's wrong?" Nanxiao exclaimed.
So that the people inside also heard the movement, and Mu Qingyang hurried over to open the door.
At this time, Mu Xi ran quickly stepped back a few steps, stepped on the steps, hung the other foot, and looked up into Mu Qingyang's eyes, "Dad, Xi ran almost stepped on the air."
