11 seems to be looking for a son
Mu Xiran looked at the already withered orchids in the vase and felt a lot of emotions in his heart. In the past few days, she has only been busy fighting and has no time to take care of these delicate flowers. She is really afraid that one day she will fall into this kind of conspiracy.
Half an hour later, Mother Liu came back with another brocade box and put it in front of Mu Xiyan.
"How about you, Miss?"
Just by looking at this gold-encrusted brocade box, you can guess the value of the tea set inside.
Mu Xilan's eyes first glanced at the rain on Mother Liu's sleeves and hair, then lowered her eyes and opened the brocade box with her own hands. What she saw was the ink pine bamboo plum pattern, and her eyes lit up. This set of tea cups was pure and white glazed, and the painting was meticulous and neat. It was indeed a rare tea set.
"Which palace did M Mother work in before?" Mu Xian suddenly asked.
This question obviously stunned Mother Liu, but when she saw Mu Xilan's soft side face, she must have replied in her heart, "The old slave was working beside the noble concubine Shu."
Shu Guifei is the cousin of the second lady Yuan's family. It is normal for Shu Guifei to give the mother beside her to the second lady.
Mu Xilan didn't even look at her and directly ordered, "Okay, there is nothing wrong with you here. Go down." Then he took out all the tea sets in the brocade box and ordered Nanxiao to clean them well.
If you have a good tea set, you must have good tea. Unfortunately, no one in Mufu likes to drink tea, and there must be no expensive tea.
Since Aunt Man was banned, the people in the house have really had a lot of peace. For several days, there has been no movement in each yard. Mu Xilan rarely lazily in the room and enjoys this quiet day.
The day before the county magistrate's birthday, Miaozhu from the main courtyard came to Xiaoxiangyuan with a few sets of skirts in his arms, saying that his wife specially asked the ready-to-wear store to make it for Mu Xiran, and asked Mu Xiran to choose one when she went to the county magistrate's mansion tomorrow.
Mu Xi'an was not interested and still sat in front of the bed in a daze.
And Nan Xiao went over and picked up the skirt, and his eyes lit up. "Miss, these skirts are made of good materials. I really don't know why my wife suddenly became kind-hearted." Thinking that Mami Liu was also in the room, Nanxiao laughed twice.
Unexpectedly, Mu Xilan didn't care about the existence of Mama Liu and said leisurely with her arm, "At least I am also the direct daughter of the Mu family. If I wear an old skirt to the birthday party, I will only make people say behind my back that my wife is not kind to me. In exchange for a few words of virtuousness, the second lady still has a brain.
"So that's it." Nan Xiao nodded slowly, "Does that lady wear it or not?"
Mu Xiran suddenly got up and said, "Of course, I wore it and sent good clothes in vain. How can I not accept the second lady's 'goodwill'?"
After cleaning up the room, Mother Liu went out with the clothes to be washed.
"Nan Xiao, what's the news about the main courtyard?" Mu Xi was sure that the second lady would not be so quiet.
"Miss didn't ask, and the maidservant almost forgot." Nanxiao looked out of the window and said, "I didn't get any news, but something was extremely strange. I heard from the maid that the second lady would go to the Silver Moon Temple outside the city to offer incense on the 18th of every month, as if she was going to ask for a son.
Mu Xian raised her eyebrows and laughed, "Ask for a son?" Speaking of which, she didn't believe it at all, "It will be 18 in a few days. I will go to the main courtyard in person after the birthday banquet."
May 12, the birthday of the county magistrate.
However, the weather was a little gloomy this day, and fortunately it did not rain. In a word, Mu Xiyan doesn't like the gloomy weather of Xiangcheng during the continuous rainy season, and he always feels very depressed.
In the morning, Mu Xilan opened her eyes and sat up after being lazy for a while and stretched out comfortably.
"Miss, I didn't sleep well all night last night." Nan Shi curled her lips and complained, "My maidservant was so afraid of mice that I was so scared that I didn't fall asleep last night." After saying that, he breathed a breath.
Mu Xian raised his eyebrows, put on his underwear and got up. "The mouse won't eat you." Yu Guang caught a look at Mother Liu coming in, and she ordered, "M Mother Liu will catch mice in Xiaoxiang Pavilion today."
M Mother Liu has been used to Mu Xiran's inexplicable instructions and silently responded.
In an instant, the picture of a mouse chasing her flashed in her head, and her body immediately trembled, "Miss, don't say any more. I feel scared as long as I think about it. Open the cabinet door and point to the skirt inside. "Miss, which one are you going to wear?"
If it was Princess Zhaohua in her previous life, she would not hesitate to choose a big red peony embroidered skirt, but in this life, she felt that those bright red skirts were not suitable for her. After looking at it, she finally chose a random one.
Since the increase in the use of Xiaoxiang Pavilion, Mu Xi'an's face is obviously much better than before. The exquisite facial features are exquisite and beautiful, and a pair of bright eyes are like bright moon. Looking at this light cyan butterfly narcissus skirt makes her more elegant and pure.
"Miss's eyebrows are very similar to Madam." Nan Xiao looked at the woman in the bronze mirror.
Mu Xiran smiled brightly, "Have you seen your mother?"
"No, I just happened to see a portrait of my wife in Lord Yi's study."
In the memory of his previous life, Yi's appearance is very vague, but he only saw it when he was very young. Mu Xilan suppressed the emotions brought by the memory of her previous life and tried to keep herself calm.
Birthdays are usually more lively in the afternoon, so when the second lady ordered Miaozhu to come over, Mu Xirant refused. She had to prepare to go there after lunch. The longer she stays outside, the more uneasy she will be.
These days, Mu Xilan has been secretly reading books when she is boring, and she has to ask Nanxiao to help her control the wind. After all, she can't do the well-known things when Mu Xilan is illiterate. And the explanation for Nan Xiao is very simple. She is literate.
In the afternoon, the sloping sunlight appeared slightly between the dark clouds.
Mu Xilan took Nanxiao all the way to Fangfu in a carriage, but stood at the door and heard the high noise inside.
Mu Xiyan didn't expect that she had just stepped into the house. She saw Fang Yumo coming with noble temperament. She took Mu Xiyan's hand affectionately and complained, "I thought you weren're not going to come over."
"I must have come early to accompany those women to watch the play. It's not that you don't know that I don't like to listen to those most." Mu Xi ran back to Fang Yumo's hand and followed her through the lobby to the backyard.
At this moment, two or three people came from the opposite side. The handsome face of the leading man seemed to be carefully carved by people, handsome but not strong, and his eyes were dark and dark, which made people dare not look directly.
Fang Yumo shook Mu Xiran's hand generously and motioned her to salute, "This is Prince Jing'an."
How could Mu Xilan not know him and bowed him perfunctorily.
"Your Majesty, this is a good friend of the little girl, Mu Xiran, the second daughter of the Mu family." Fang Yumo looked at King Jing'an, so he didn't see Mu Xiran's expression.
Qin Yu, the king of Jing'an, has been staring at Mu Xiran, and his bright eyes slowly indulged. "I know."
"Yumo, let's go." Mu Xiran didn't want to talk to him. She pulled Fang Yumo and walked away. Unexpectedly, when she passed by Qin Yu, she was grabbed by his wrist. Mu Xiran turned her head coldly, "Let go."
"I have a few words to say to Miss Mu." Although Qin Yu looked at Mu Xilan, it was what Yumo said.
When the prince said, Fang Yumo didn't dare to disagree. He pinched Mu Xiran's palm and left first.
Qin Yu didn't care whether Mu Xilan was willing or not, so he pulled her into a moon gate and saw Nan Xiao following him. His eyes darkened and his tone was unbearable: "Don't follow."
"Ren me go! Qin Yu...pain!" Mu Xiqi pulled his little face and looked at him fiercely.
In her previous life, she was a princess and he was the prince, but there was no intersection between the two. Because the Prince of Jing'an has been outside all year round, either traveling around or leading troops to fight. So now Mu Xian is also very strange to him.
Coupled with the unhappiness between the first two, Mu Xiqi still disliked him a little.
"Don't you know that Miss Mu wants to salute when she sees the prince!" Qin Yu pulled her hand and forced her to himself.
Mu Xiran stubbornly turned his face and said, "Please don't blame me. Xiran is a little girl without etiquette. Why does the prince have to care about these etiquette with Xiran? Glancing at his wrist, Mu Xilan was secretly distressed for a moment.
Qin Yu's eyebrows gradually condensed and said in surprise, "A woman like you who has been tricked by her relatives should not show her expression on her face like this."
