62 I--I want to marry you.
Mu Xiran didn't expect that Nanshi, who had always been careless, could see her mind. She smiled quickly and said, "You actually said nonsense. How can I be lost? I just feel that when will it be over to fight with each other like this? With Chu Yuntang, Mrs. Chu and Chu Luo's temperament will definitely not swallow this breath."
"Xi Run, this matter was provoked by them. Now they deserve it." Mu Qianrui gently grabbed Mu Xilan's shoulder, and his tone was also extremely gentle.
"After this incident, Chu Luo will definitely not provoke you and the Yi family again. And I also heard Su Heyu say that Chu Luo didn't go to Dali Temple a few days ago because he received the family law. It can be seen that Lord Chu Yuntang is not a confused person.
Chu Yuntang's nature is the most familiar. Chu Yuntang punished Chu Luo only because he was not seamless, but made people suspicious of the Chu family. She also knew that Chu Luo would sooner or later return the harm she had caused him.
However, Mu Xi's tired heart in the past few days can finally calm down and lean on Mu Qianrui's arms to feel the warmth given by his family.
The rainstorm came and went quickly. In just a quarter of an hour, it was sunny outside, and the hot sun shone the accumulated water on the ground.
After Mu Qianrui left, Mu Xiyan thought for a long time and decided to pick up the pen to write a letter and write a few words. She patted her forehead, tore the letter impatiently, then wrote it, and then tore it up again. After so many times, Mu Xiyan still lost her pen and decided to sit in front of the window in a daze with her cheeks.
Towards evening, Nan Xiao came in with a lunch box and handed a letter to Mu Xiran. Mu Xiran took it over and opened it. At a glance, she knew that it was written by Chu Yinruo. She specially invited Mu Xiran to visit Yueya Lake tomorrow. Later, she wrote that the atmosphere of Chu Mansion was dull in the past few days. It was really boring to stay in the house, so she also invited Mu Xian must go.
Mu Xi smiled and called Nanshi, "Nanshi, reply a letter to Miss Chu and said that I agreed."
"Ah, miss, how can a maid reply to Miss Chu?" Nan Shi tilted his mouth.
"Don't worry. Just write it and buy you more strings of sugar-coated haws when you leave the house tomorrow. Mu Xiruan didn't look at Nanshi's expression of drooling when he mentioned sugar-coated haws.
Nanshi really responded crisply, "Okay, the maidservant will write it right away." Immediately sitting at the desk, he remembered something and asked, "Miss, will you make Yifu difficult for you to get along with the second lady of the Chu family?" In fact, in her heart, as long as people who have something to do with the Chu family should not treat each other well, not to mention the young lady of the Chu family.
"You talk too much, miss, don't I know how to be measured?" Mu Xilan looked at her angrily.
Nan Xiao looked at the thick sunset outside and said happily, "Tomorrow, the day after tomorrow must be a good day, and it's time for Miss to go out for a walk. Stay in the house all day, and you may get moldy one day.
The blue sky is cloudless, and it is really a good day to travel.
Mu Xian went to tell her aunt first. Because she came back late last night, she said that she would go out and have fun. Mu Xilan took Nan Xiao and Nan Shi out of the house.
The capital is much more open than the folk customs in Xiangcheng, and it is normal for women who have not left the cabinet to occasionally come out on the street.
Mu Xilan didn't expect to see Chu Yinruo standing on the street opposite Yi's house and waved to her. Mu Xilan walked over with a smile, "If I don't come out, are you going to wait here all the time?"
"Didn't you come out? I just came here, too." Chu Yin took Mu Xiran's hand affectionately, "And I know that my sister has been in the house for several days and will definitely come out very early, hehe. Then you don't have to bring a maid."
"Good." Mu Xilan turned his head and asked Nan Xiao and Nan Shi to go back to his house. He looked back at Chu Yin's deep dimples, "Are you afraid that you ask me to go back and be scolded by Lord Chu and the princess?"
Chu Yin shook his head and said easily, "I guess he will scold, but I just ignore them. What else can they do to me?" As the second lady of Chu Mansion, Chu Yinruo, like Chu Chen, was spoiled by the princess since childhood. Her natural temperament is different, and they are all rare innocence.
"What's more, those hatreds are their last lives and have nothing to do with us."
Mu Xilan heard Chu Yinruo's words, she must not know the resentment between Chu Luo and herself.
The two walked to Crescent Lake in the south of the city. There were willows on the lakeside of Crescent Lake, and crisp leaves were reflected on the lake, which also moved with the ripples. Chu Yinruo kept talking all the way. When he arrived at the lakeside, he pulled Mu Xilan onto a two-story red boat.
Entering the exquisite cabin, Mu Xilan knew that it was not only the two of them today, but also several official girls who had not left the cabinet. Before Mu Xilan saw it clearly, she was hurriedly pulled up to the second floor by Chu Yinruo. At this time, she could feel that the ship was moving slowly.
The second floor is more luxurious than the first floor, and what surprised Mu Xilan was that there were people lying on the soft couch on the second floor. Chu Yinruo went straight to knock on Chu Chen's forehead, "Get up."
Chu Chen touched his forehead, pulled his face and sat up quickly. After seeing Mu Xilan sit up more righteously, his tone was surprisingly affectionate: "Is Xilan coming?" Later, he wink at Chu Yinuo, and Chu Yinuo pulled the corners of his mouth to respond.
Mu Xiran vaguely felt that Chu Yin had brought her out ulterior motives. She sat down generously at the round table and said directly, "I don't know what Mr. Chu asked me to do?"
Chu Yinuo's heart tightened as soon as he heard her tone and hurriedly sat next to Mu Xilan, "Xilan, don't be angry. I really wanted to take you out to visit the lake, but Chu Chen accidentally heard it and said that he would come and join in the fun.
"Hiddenly, I always don't like to beat around the bush, and I'm definitely not angry." Mu Xijian also pressed her hand.
"That's good. I'm afraid you'll be angry." He smiled coquettishly at Mu Xilan, and turned his head to Chu Chen unwillingly.
Chu Chen didn't care about her expression. Looking at Mu Xi's bright moonlight eyes, he actually felt a little shy and swallowed his dry throat. It took him a moment to find his voice. "Xi Ruan, I... I really have something to do with you today. I hope you can think about it..." After a pause, "I... want to marry you."
Mu Xilan was stunned. What's going on? Isn't Chu Chen teasing her?
"Chu Chen, you will be scared by saying that." Chu Yin hit Chu Chen's arm anxiously.
"Although we have only seen it twice, your pure face is deeply imprinted in my mind and has been lingering. I have thought a lot these days, and I think this should be what my mother said. So, I think I like you." Chu Chen kept rubbing his sleeves with his hands, looking at a loss and trembling.
There was a period of silence in the cabin. Chu Chen and Chu Yinruo were guessing Mu Xiran's thoughts, and Mu Xiran lowered her head slightly and didn't know what to think. When Chu Chen was a little disappointed, he only heard Mu Xiran say, "Son Chu, it's a pity that I don't like you."
As soon as Mu Xi'an's voice fell, she only heard a woman rush up. The woman looked around at the three people in the room, and finally her eyes fell on Mu Xi'an. She never knew how to say what she wanted to say.
Chu Chen walked very fast and quickly pulled Mu Xilan behind him, "Sister-in-law, what are you doing!"
It turned out to be Shi Daixiao, Chu Chen's wife. Shi Daixiao rubbed his hands at a loss and pointed to Mu Xilan behind Chu Chen, "Chu Chen, you are fascinated by this woman. It was this woman who caused your eldest brother to be demoted by the emperor. If it hadn't been for her, how could the Yi family have framed Chu Chen with a maid of honor. Tears of grievances are almost coming out of my eyes.
Chu Chen was stunned at first, and then frowned, "Sister-in-law, don't talk nonsense. Although I don't like to talk about the feud between the four families, I know that the eldest brother's demotion will never be framed by others. If you dare to do something, you have to do it. It's completely nonsense for the eldest brother to ask you to come and question!"
Shi Daixiao raised his eyebrows and explained impatiently, "Your eldest brother won't do such a thing. Didn't the Yi family deliberately buy a maid of honor to frame your eldest brother in order to vent their anger on Mu Xi'an? Why did this matter catch up with the virtuous concubine? It is clear that the Yi family colluded with the virtuous concubine.
"Mrs. Chu, can you tell the little girl who told you these things?" Mu Xilan looked coldly at the impulsive woman in front of him, and now understood why the Shi family had to break off the relationship with Shi Daixiao, instead of tolerating her marrying to the Chu family. Such a woman who married the Chu family would only bring trouble to the Shi family.
"Of course... it's Aunt Miao." Shi Daixiao hesitated to answer.
Mu Xi'an snorted coldly, "That's normal. Aunt Miao is really smart and tight. She likes to bully the little girl before she comes out of the cabinet. Now she has come out of the cabinet and knows how to use her to bully the little girl. I guess Aunt Miao is laughing secretly in the room now. Say something to make Mrs. Chu angry, no matter who likes smart women.
"Sister-in-law, you are also stupid to believe a concubine's words!" Chu Yin said bluntly.
Shi Daixiao's words turned pale and blue. At this time, no matter how stupid she was, she understood that her hatred for Aunt Miao deepened, but after all, face was important, she still bravely and said angrily, "But it's a fact that my husband was demoted. My husband told me about you a few days ago, so this must be about this matter. It has something to do with you."
"If Mrs. Chu has to say so, the little girl can't help it. However, the little girl still wants to remind Mrs. Chu that it is not good for Mrs. Chu to be heard without evidence, which is undoubtedly questioning the emperor's judgment. Mu Xijian is no longer the princess who only knows how to act coquettishly in the arms of her father and mother in her previous life. Now she is able to deal with this kind of thing.
