38 It's still a little funny that I can't read
"The queen fainted on the spot when she heard that the princess had passed away, and later fainted in front of the crowd several times. If it were me, I couldn't bear the pain of losing my daughter. After that, the queen was in constant pain and her health was getting worse. She often went to the dormitory before the princess left the palace in a daze. I don't want to ask about the harem anymore." Mrs. Yi said quietly that every sentence was like a hot iron stone on Mu Xi's flesh and blood, which was that kind of clear pain.
Mrs. Yi looked at Mu Xilan's stunned look and said with a shallow smile, "Xilan seems to be very interested in the matter of Princess Zhaohua?"
"Well, I feel very sorry. If Princess Zhaohua hadn't married Mr. Su at the beginning, she might not have had such a fate. Mu Xilan lowered her eyes and covered up the pain in her eyes.
"Therefore, a woman must marry a good woman who can treat her well, otherwise she will be sad for a lifetime." Mrs. Yi gently pressed Mu Xi's hand as teaching.
Mu Xian winked at Mrs. Yi mischievously and leaned her head on Mrs. Yi's arm. "It can be seen that her aunt married a good man like her uncle, so she is so happy. I don't know how many people my aunt and uncle envied.
Yi Xiao has only one child in the Yi family now, which is also because Yi Nuotian has only one wife. For so many years, Lord Yi's feelings for his wife have been envied by everyone in the capital.
The jumping candlelight flashed on Mrs. Yi's gentle face. She took a little shyness of her little daughter's family and took a shy look at Mu Xilan, "You are sweet."
Relying in a soft embrace, Mu Xirang felt as if she had returned to the scene of acting coquettishly beside her mother in her previous life. Today, she learned that since her death, her mother has not lived a good life.
But in the past and present life, the two generations are separated, and it can only be the relationship between the queen and the minister.
That night, Mu Xiyan returned to his Falling Flower Pavilion and lay down after an absent-minded wash, thinking about five days later. Five days later is the day of Su and Yu's wedding. Because the Yi family is Mrs. Su's mother's family, everyone in the Yi family will go there tomorrow, and what is inevitable is the meeting between the two.
She and Su Heyu became strangers in just a month.
The weather in the capital is unbearable, and the trees are constantly chirping. After lunch, Mu Xian lies under the vines in the yard to take a nap. In fact, she can't sleep, but it is rare to enjoy such leisure in Yifu.
But someone came to disturb, and a maid ran over and said, "Miss Mu, the second wife is invited."
The second wife is the wife of Yi Nuotao, the second master of Yifu. Since she entered Yifu, Mu Xian has not seen anyone from the second wife. Now, the sudden coming surprise surprised her.
However, as a junior, of course, he can't refuse, so Mu Xilan got up and said, "Then please lead the way."
The maid took Mu Xilan all the way to the east courtyard of the second room, but arrived at the door of the second wife's room. The maid stopped and said respectfully, "Miss Mu, please wait a moment. I will go in and report it first." After saying that, he lifted the curtain and entered the room.
It's just that this entry never comes out again.
The hot sun in the afternoon hit my body, as if I were in a charcoal stove, and the sultry heat was unbearable. What's more, a delicate woman like Mu Xirang feels dizzy after standing for a quarter of an hour.
In fact, after the maid said, Mu Xilan guessed that the second wife did not really invite her to come here, otherwise the maid would take her directly. Why did she have to go in and report it specifically?
However, Mu Xian doesn't know why the second wife gave herself a majesty.
"Miss... Why don't you go back? There is no way to stand like this. Nanxiao behind him was sweating anxiously. He thought that when he arrived at Yifu, the young lady would not be bullied by others, but he didn't expect that it would be the same here.
Mu Xilan shook her head and glanced at the swaying figure by the window in the house. She motioned Nan Xiao to put her ear over and whispered. Nanxiao ran out with a smoke.
At this moment, the curtain was lifted, and the maid just said respectfully, "Miss Mu, come in."
Mu Xi'an lowered his head and slowly smiled at the corners of his mouth. He walked to the room and saw a lady sitting on the top. Mu Xi'an bent his knees and said, "Xi'an has seen his second aunt." Then he looked at the second wife quietly.
The second wife is not a lady of a famous family, but the daughter of a businessman. However, Yi Nuotao and she fell in love with each other at the beginning, and Yi Shiping reluctantly agreed to the marriage. As the daughter of a businessman, the second wife is inevitably a little mean between her eyebrows.
The woman sitting at the head of the second lady also looked at Mu Xi, and the smile at the corners of her mouth was a little intriguing.
"Sit down quickly. After a few days, can you still get used to it? This capital is no more than a small place like Xiangcheng. The second wife smiled and flattened her folded clothes just now, and her tone was obviously sarcastic.
Mu Xian took those actions of the second wife in his eyes, and then sat down quietly, "Thank you for your concern."
It's really uncomfortable to hit cotton with one fist. However, the second wife's smile remained unchanged, but smiled deeper. "I heard that Xiren can't read. I don't know if it's true?"
"No one has taught Xi'an since he was a child, so he can only write his own name." Mu Xiran's tone was calm and there was no twist at all.
The second wife still couldn't help laughing softly, "Although a woman's talentlessness is virtue, as a lady of your family, it's still a little funny that she can't read." After saying that, she still smiled happily, and then heard the footsteps outside the door, her face changed and she quickly covered the corners of her mouth with a veil.
Unexpectedly, it was Nan Xiao who lifted the curtain. Nan Xiao silently bowed and retreated behind Mu Xiran.
The second wife twitched the corners of her mouth and thought it was the eldest lady who came in. She glanced at Mu Xilan, who had been calm from beginning to end, and sighed in her heart, which really underestimated her. However, since she had the courage to come to Yifu, she had to have the courage to taste the consequences of coming to Yifu to compete for favor.
"Yi Han, your cousin just came here. You take her to the house for a walk."
Yi Han responded happily, "Yes, mother. I will definitely treat my cousin well." After getting up, he walked to Mu Xi'an's side, took her hand affectionately, and smiled with a pair of Danfeng eyes. "Cousin Xi'an, there are many interesting places in this house."
Mu Xiyan also let her pull out of the room, but subconsciously looked at the sky still shining in the sun. Mu Xiyan curled her lips secretly. The mother and daughter were really able to toss around.
As the only lady in Yifu, Yi Han's most indispensable thing in the house is to spoil, so it is inevitable to breed some arrogance. After walking not far, Yi Han stopped and scolded the maidservant behind him coldly, "They all don't have eyes. I don't know such a big sun. Take an oil paper umbrella to cover it!"
Those maids have been used to the uncertain weather of their masters. They all nodded and went to get oil paper umbrellas one after another.
"Cousin, look at the sun. Let's avoid it in the pavilion over there." Regardless of Mu Xirant's willingness or not, Yi Han forcibly pulled Mu Xirant into the octagonal pavilion by the Qing Lake and sat down. "Cousin Xirant, why don't you talk?"
"I don't like chatting with strangers." Mu Xian reluctantly smiled at the corners of his mouth, and his words gave no face at all.
No matter how patient Yi Han was, he couldn't help but be angry. He raised his eyebrows and stared, "What does cousin mean by this?! You and I are cousins. How can you say that you are an outsider? Don't you like me?
Mu Xiran slowly shook his head and suddenly stood up. He looked at Yi Han sharply. "The second wife just deliberately made things difficult for me and mocked me. She didn't look down on me. How can my cousin kindly show me around now? After saying that, she was about to turn around and leave.
Yi Han was just stunned for a moment and grabbed her wrist, "Mu Xiyan, you still know your identity. The daughter of a small city lord was also embarrassed to live in Yifu, which really lost Yifu's face.
"Well, I think an unbred lady like my cousin has lost the face of Yifu!" Mu Xiran's whole body suddenly exuded invisible anger, and the mockery at the corners of his mouth was even more deeply stung by Yi Han.
With a "pop", Yi Han slapped Mu Xiran's face, and before Yi Han could react, he saw Mu Xiran smile and tilted his body straight to the Qing Lake.
