After the full-level boss is dressed as cannon fodder

Chapter 212
Knowing that there is a deep resentment between Xie Shujing and her stepmother, Tu Muzhen comforted:

"Now that your uncle and aunt are taking care of you, don't worry too much about the past. Besides, this is outside, and you'd better think about it before saying it. Otherwise, if it accidentally spreads to someone who cares It's not good for your reputation."

"I know."

Xie Shujing smiled brightly, "Didn't I just tell you these things because there are no outsiders around?"

Well, it seems that she is still too worried.

Tu Muzhen smiled and said: "Since your aunt brought you here, do you know what the Duke of Wei's mansion is doing for the spring banquet today?"

"I know!"

Xie Shujing nodded, and said in a low voice, "My aunt said that Mrs. Wei Guogong wanted to marry her son. Today is said to be a spring banquet, but in fact, Wei Guogong's mansion wants to take this opportunity to get in touch with girls of the right age from various families. Want to pick a daughter-in-law!"

It seems that the purpose of Mrs. Wei Guogong is really obvious enough, and it is estimated that all the wives who were invited here are well aware of it.

"then you……"

Tu Muzhen didn't finish speaking.

But Xie Shujing still understood, and couldn't help laughing: "What else am I here for? Of course I'm just going through the motions! With my identity, can I still hope to climb up the imperial palace? But my aunt should be I want to take this opportunity to show my face and see if I can find a good marriage for me. Don't you know, my aunt has been worrying about this matter since I entered Beijing. In fact, I really want to persuade her to let her Don't be in such a hurry. But she's all for me, and I'm a little embarrassed in the end, so it's not good to tell her this."

Speaking of her marriage, Xie Shujing didn't feel shy at all, but rather magnanimous.

No wonder.

Xie Shujing was no ordinary young girl.

When she was in Nanxi County, in order to escape from the shackles of her stepmother, she planned a marriage for herself alone, and even once set her sights on gentle scum like Zhao Zhiheng.

"Aren't you anxious to get married before, but now that someone is taking care of it for you, do you think others are too anxious?" Tu Muzhen laughed.

"Can this be the same?"

Xie Shujing snorted, "In the past, I had no choice, so I had to do it. But now, I no longer have to worry that I will suddenly fall into the fire pit one day, so of course I don't have to worry."

That's right.

After all, it is the surrounding environment that affects everyone's every move!

"By the way, what are you doing today?" Xie Shujing winked at Tu Muzhen.

Tu Muzhen smiled wryly, "My aunt's plan should be similar to your aunt's."

The two looked at each other, and for a moment, they saw a touch of sympathy in each other's eyes.

The two couldn't help laughing together.

"Since we met here today, shall I take you to meet my aunt?" Tu Muzhen said with a smile, "I will stay in the capital for a while longer. At that time, no matter if it's me looking for you or you coming It is very convenient to find me."

"Okay!"

Xie Jingshu agreed cheerfully.

Tu Muzhen hurriedly looked in the direction where Chai Yun had been before.

After all, it was Chai Yun who brought her here. She has to say hello to someone when she wants to leave.

But Tu Muzhen looked over, but found that Chai Yun disappeared at some point or where she went.

This Chai Yun, who seemed to be quite stable before, why did she leave after such a short time without even saying hello.

Since he couldn't find anyone, Tu Muzhen stopped looking, and took Xie Shujing back to the place where the ladies were chatting.

The stage has been set up now, and most of the ladies are watching the show, only chatting occasionally in a low voice.

Tu Muzhen took Xie Jingshu and sat down quietly behind Xiang Jingfu, without attracting the attention of others.

"Hey, really, why did you come back so soon?"

Xiang Jingfu said strangely, "Why, aren't you having fun with those young ladies?"

"Nothing, auntie, where did you think about going?"

Tu Muzhen smiled and shook his head, "I met a good friend in my hometown, so I brought her here to visit you."

"It's such a coincidence?" Xiang Jingfu was very happy, and hurriedly greeted Xie Jingshu to sit down.

Tu Muzhen briefly introduced Xie Jingshu's identity to Jingfu.

Xiang Jingfu glanced at Xie Jingshu in surprise, wiped a beeswax bracelet from her wrist, and gave it to Xie Jingshu as a meeting gift.

The beeswax on this bracelet is dark yellow, and the pieces are of average size. There are also exquisite and beautiful patterns carved on it, which are very precious at first glance.

Xie Jingshu hurriedly saluted to thank her, but she was a little afraid to accept it.

After she arrived in the capital, she also attended several banquets with her aunt and received a lot of greetings.

But even though everyone looked at her as the niece of the upstart of the dynasty, their attitude towards her was quite friendly, but most of the greetings they gave were mediocre and not very valuable. It can be seen that everyone still despised her in their hearts.

This is the first time that Xie Jingshu has seen someone give her such a precious gift.

She knew that Mrs. Gan didn't give her such a precious gift for her uncle's face, she clearly gave it for Tu Muzhen's face.

Xiang Jingfu took Xie Jingshu's hand with a smile, put the beeswax bracelet on her, and said with a smile, "Miss Xie, don't show anyone. Since you are a real good friend of our family, then come with us. My junior is no different. It's just a gadget, it's not worth much, Miss Xie keep it for fun."

Xie Shujing refused, but had to accept the greeting and thank Xiang Jingfu.

Seeing that she was well behaved, Xiang Jingfu couldn't help but nodded appreciatively.

"aunt."

Tu Muzhen approached Xiang Jingfu and said jokingly, "I see that you had a lot of things on your hands when you went out. The Spring Banquet hasn't officially started yet, so most of your hands are empty. Which lady will come to greet you later, do you still have enough gifts to give?"

Today's noble ladies go out to socialize, who doesn't wear more jewelry on themselves?
Just to deal with the current situation.

It was also the first time that Tu Muzhen knew about the twists and turns, and once sighed in his heart that the communication between these noble ladies is really not easy!

"You child, are you still waiting to see my aunt's jokes?"

Xiang Jingfu laughed and said, "Tell you quietly, Fangling also has a lot of good things on her body!"

Fangling is the big maid that Xiang Jingfu brought out to the banquet this time, and she is highly regarded by Xiang Jingfu.

Tu Muzhen was dumb for a moment, almost burst out laughing.

The two sat with Xiang Jingfu for a while, and Xie Jingshu gave Tu Muzhen a wink.
