169 I don't understand this rule. What else is the daughter-in-law of the Qin family?
At three o'clock, Mu Xilan woke up and opened her eyes and found that there was no one around her. She dragged her sore body and turned over, "Nan Xiao, why don't you wake me up?"
"Madam, the prince told me not to wake you up." Thinking of the two people still kneeling outside, Nan Xiao reminded them, "The second lady and the third girl are still kneeling outside."
Mu Xirang suddenly woke up and frowned. "Let them wait in the main hall and let Nianhua come and greet them first. I'll go there after I take a shower.
"Ye, I'm going to prepare hot water."
In fact, when the prince left, he asked Nanxiao to prepare hot water at any time, so Nanxiao quickly prepared hot water for bathing.
If it is usual, Mu Xian must have a good soak for a while, but today, when she thought of the second lady waiting in the front hall, she was not in the mood to continue to soak. After a simple wash, she quickly came out.
In the front hall, the second lady and Mu Nianqing both sat in their seats, rubbing their knees with bitter faces, and secretly scolding Mu Xi's cruel heart, which made them kneel for three or four hours. If they kneel down again, I'm afraid these legs can't be preserved.
"Nianhua, why hasn't your princess come out yet?" The second lady's tone was also a little impatient.
Nianhua said neither humble nor arrogant, "Madam, if you don't want to wait, you can leave. The princess hasn't had time to entertain you yet.
The second lady suddenly got angry when she heard the words. It was enough to be bullied by Mu Xiren. Now she has to be treated arrogantly by a maid. How could she stand it, so she stood up and wanted to fan Nianhua.
"Second Madam, what Nianhua said is not wrong. No one begged to let the second lady wait for me here again. Mu Xiran came in leisurely, and the ink hair hung behind him and moved with his figure, which was extremely enchanting.
The second lady quickly withdrew her hand, provoked her anger and whispered, "After all, the princesses are all girls in Mufu."
"Don't tell me about Mufu. You know very well what the people of Mufu did to me." The sleeves of the golden hook were swinging, and Mu Xilan sat down in the main position, and the sneer at the corners of his mouth remained unchanged. "Speaking, I don't like people who are roundabouts."
The second lady sat back angrily, looked at Mu Nianqing, and finally fell on Mu Xilan's face. Looking at Mu Xilan's delicate and elegant facial features, she came up with all kinds of grievances. "Second girl, you have to call me mother according to the rules. No matter what Mufu did to you before, it was all for Mufu..."
"Let's say it directly." Mu Xian put the teacup on the table fiercely.
"Okay, okay, second girl. The master asked me to come today and wanted you to be a matchmaker. You are very favored by the Empress. Now the fifth prince is disciplined by the Empress. My mother wants you to talk to the Empress and marry Nianqing to the fifth prince. The second lady looked closely at Mu Xiran's face and saw that her expression had not changed. She thought this matter was promising.
Unexpectedly, Mu Xilan raised his clear eyes, his contemptuous eyes first glanced at Mu Nianqing, and then smiled gently, "The third sister's reputation has been ruined. No matter how capable I am, I dare not be a matchmaker to give the third sister to the prince. Now the third sister's reputation is... she can only be a concubine..."
"The concubine is okay, as long as you allow the fifth prince to marry Nianqing, even the concubine." The second lady said anxiously.
As long as you use some means, the concubine will become the main room sooner or later.
"Nianhua, I remember what the emperor said about the fifth prince and the third sister some time ago. I forgot a little. Say it again in front of the second lady and the third sister." Mu Xilan casually groped the jade bracelet given to her by Qin Yu on her wrist.
Nianhua put his hands in front of his lower abdomen and nod respectfully, "It's madam." Turning to the second lady, she originally said the emperor's words again, "The emperor said, 'A girl with a ruined reputation, I absolutely don't agree with you to marrying such a shameless woman.'"
"So the second lady still broke the idea of letting the third sister marry the fifth prince. After all, the emperor has issued the imperial edict, and I don't need to ask for fun." Mu Xian lowered his eyes, avoided Mu Nianqing's sharp eyes, raised the corners of his mouth and ordered, "Mianhua, see you off."
Nianhua had to walk over, stretched out his hand and made an invitation, "Second Madam, Miss Mu, please."
The second lady stood up and moved her lips and watched Nan Xiao help Mu Xiran leave. The invisibly noble spirit of her straight back made her retreat a little.
When the second lady turned around, Nianhua said, "Nianhua advised the second lady that the princess did not go to the trouble of Mufu. The second lady should feel a little happy, so she asked the second lady not to talk to my master in the future. If the second lady still wants to hit the stone with an egg, then think about the end of the Chu family.
In the end of the Chu Mansion, everyone was exiled to the border.
The second lady's body suddenly froze. Recalling the painful scene of the defeat of the Chu family, she still grabbed Mu Nianqing and hurried away.
Not long after returning to the room, Nianhua estimated the time and reminded, "Master, it's time to say good morning."
Mu Xiran nodded, and there was no other superfluous look on his face except the quiet color. He let Nianhua roll up his long hair and chose an elegant jasper hairpin and pin it to the simple bun, "Let's go."
Nan Shi couldn't help muttering, "Let the maidservant follow. If they are embarrassing their master, the maidservant will sneak back."
"You are so good to stay in the East Courtyard." Mu Xilan left a few words indifferently, but still went out with Nianhua and Nanxiao.
When she arrived at the main hall, a maid saw several people coming and raised the curtain respectfully. Mu Xilan put her hands in front of her lower abdomen and entered the room to greet them. Unexpectedly... These people had begun to have dinner.
Mu Xiren couldn't help saying that he was still embarrassed. Then he restrained his thoughts and worshipped everyone, "It seems that Xiren is not the right time."
My aunt slowly put down her chopsticks and said gently, "Your uncle is going out tonight, so it's a little early. It's just the right time for you to come. As Yuer's daughter-in-law, you have to learn to cook for your superiors. After saying that, he waved to Mu Xian and said, "Come here."
In rich families, it is appropriate for the younger generation to give vegetables to the elders. But Mu Xi'an is the daughter-in-law of the third room.
In everyone's different look, Mu Xi ran slowly behind his uncle, took the chopsticks prepared by his maid, picked up the farthest dish from here, and put it in his uncle's bowl. "Please use it slowly."
Uncle Qin was peaceful. Seeing Mu Xilan's thoughts again, he narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Your daughter-in-law has a heart."
After Nodding, Mu Xilan put a piece of tofu for Mrs. Qin, "Eat more tofu, you can prolong your life."
"My sister-in-law is really pleasing. If I can often ask my sister-in-law to cook for my mother in the future, my mother must be very happy." The young lady in the big house covered her mouth and couldn't help praising, which is difficult to guess the other meanings in this praise.
Mrs Qin was most satisfied with her eldest daughter-in-law. Hearing what Yuan said, Mrs. Qin stared at Yuan with a smile and said, "The daughter-in-law of the third family, I'm just teaching rules for others. If you want her to give me food all the time, don't let outsiders say that I bullied her.
"My sister-in-law is wrong. Yuer grew up beside you when she was a child. Yu's daughter-in-law is half your daughter-in-law no matter what she says. She is self-sufficient for you. Others dare to say anything. Mrs. Qin's pair of Danfeng eyes raised slightly, and a sharp sneer appeared on her face.
Before Mrs. Qin finished speaking, Second Master Qin scolded Mu Xilan with a black face, "Why are you still standing stupid? Come and give me the cloth. Seeing that there are no vegetables in the bowl of the superiors, you have to hurry up. I don't understand this rule, what kind of daughter-in-law of the Qin family!"
In Second Master Qin's sharp eyes, Mu Xilan saw a deep disgust.
At this time, Mu Xilan really felt the grievance, but she had to calm down, slowly walk behind Second Master Qin, bend down to choose a dish that Second Master Qin likes, reach out and hold it firmly to put it in Second Master Qin's bowl.
Somehow, Mu Xiran's arm trembled, and the dish fell into the hot soup in front of Second Master Qin. The soup inevitably splashed on Second Master Qin's face, causing Second Master Qin to suddenly stand up and stared angrily, "I't feel like eating." After saying that, he shook his sleeves and left.
"How did you do it?" The old lady's voice sank, and her face was full of blame.
Only Mu Xilan knew that when she picked up the vegetables just now, Mrs. Qin on the right stepped on her foot badly. Her arm trembled with pain. The dish did not fall into the soup, but in their own explanation, they only felt that they were looking for an excuse.
So Mu Xiyan lowered his eyes and said, "It's all Xiyan's fault. I hope uncle and aunt don't be angry." Take the hot soup and hand it to Nianhua, "Let the kitchen make another bowl."
"Mom, I want to eat tofu!" The youngest son Qin Hao pointed to the steamed tofu farthest away from him and shouted.
This second room is really not worry-free.
Mu Xilan had to walk to Qin Hao and leaned down and said to him gently, "Boys should eat more vegetables, and if they eat more tofu, they will be as weak as girls."
Qin Hao looked up at Mu Xilan's pure eyes, subconsciously nodded and grinned, "Well, my sister is right."
"All right, all right. Go back quickly. Otherwise, this meal will be unsteady. The old lady wanted to pack her luggage for a while. Time was tight, so she didn't have time to quarrel with them here.
Mu Xi's tight body, nod his head and retreated.
When she came out of the house, Nanxiao came forward to help her, "Master, when will this day end?"
"If nothing happens, just let them make trouble if they like to make trouble. It's rare that they can make trouble for a lifetime. After this state of mind, it will not be difficult for a long time. Mu Xian took a deep breath, "What's more, it's not bad for them to make so much noise. It's always better to use means behind their backs."
