Chapter 133

After eating enough, Cui Pu was still very angry.

At this time, it was getting dark outside, Mu Jiaojiao was tired all day, and now he was too tired, so he yawned: "I'm going to sleep. How about you, are you going to sleep or not?"

Cui Pu replied with great backbone: "I'm going to sleep in the study!"

Don't make her a humanoid pillow again!
"Alright." Mu Jiaojiao didn't stop him, but only ordered Hongdou, "Prepare a set of quilts, take them to the study and spread them for Mr. Lang. Also prepare mosquito repellants and ice axes. Be sure to prepare them." Let Lang Jun sleep comfortably there!"

Did she really let go?Didn't even try to keep it?

Cui Pu felt uncomfortable with the stuffing in his chest.

"No need!" He said coldly, "It's not that I have no one to take care of, I just ask Xiao Si to do these jobs. You can keep the red beans for yourself!"

He hurriedly lifted his foot and left.

Mu Jiaojiao shrugged helplessly and winked at Hongdou.Hong Dou quickly opened the box and took out a pack of mosquito repellent and stuffed it into Xiao Si'er's hand.Xiao Si'er looked ashamed: "Sister Hongdou, Mr. Lang is in a fit of anger, and he speaks without thinking. You should tell the lady, but don't be as knowledgeable as him. Mr. Mr. is just such a person, he has a short temper. Spend the night, and tomorrow he won't be like this."

"The lord and the lady have been married for a month. We all know what kind of temperament he is. Don't worry, the lady will not be angry. You are good at serving him these days, and the lady and I will not go to him more often." Hongdou said The thoughtful way.

Xiao Si'er was very grateful. "Thank you, Sister Hongdou, I have remembered what you and your wife have explained, and I will say a few more nice words to Mr. Lang these days."

Red Bean nodded.After sending Xiao Si'er away, she went back to her room to wait for Mu Jiaojiao to take a bath and change clothes.

After washing up, Mu Jiaojiao didn't go to sleep, but sat by the window, looked at the bright moon hanging in mid-air, and sighed softly: "It's so fast, it will be August [-]th soon. "

Hongdou froze. "Don't worry, lady, haven't we prepared the medicinal materials long ago? It will be fine by then!"

Mu Jiaojiao curled his lips into a smile. "I have to come here every year, and I'm used to it. I don't think about that at all now, I just think, on that night, everyone will definitely want to worship the moon together, right? There are so many people in Ge Lao Mansion. How exciting is it going to be?"

On August [-]th in the Tang Dynasty, its excitement was far less than that of later generations.In this era, Shangyuan Festival and Zhongyuan Festival are more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.The meaning of reunion symbolized by the full moon did not gradually take shape until after the Song Dynasty.So the current Mid-Autumn Festival is just a small festival where everyone gathers to enjoy the moon and talk.

"That's for sure. The servant girl has already inquired beforehand that Cui's house is much more lively than Mu's house on August [-]th!" Hong Dou hurriedly said.

"Really? Then I'll wait and see." Mu Jiaojiao said with a smile.

On the day of August [-]th, Mu Jiaojiao unexpectedly received a greeting card from the governor Guo's mansion, which was personally written by Guo Jingzhi to Mu Jiaojiao, saying that he would come to her in person in two days, and there was one thing Discuss important matters with her.

Mu Jiaojiao was still thinking about the opportunity to have more contacts with the Guo family in the future. It would be best to meet the general Guo Ziyi who supported the sky in the middle of the Tang Dynasty. Unexpectedly, the Guo family came to him on their own initiative!She quickly reported the matter to Mrs. Cui. After seeing the post, Mrs. Cui thought about it for a while and then nodded: "Although the Guo family's family background is not high, the children in the family are brave and resourceful. Governor Guo is also a man of integrity. Man, since he said he has something important to see you, then it must be something really important. Just let Liu Lang accompany you to meet him when the time comes."

"My daughter-in-law thinks so too." Mu Jiaojiao hurriedly said.

Madam Cui nodded, and asked again: "Is Liu Lang still sleeping in the study these two days?"

Mu Jiaojiao nodded.

"Hey!" Mrs. Cui couldn't help shaking her head, "You can't get used to him too much. A son, who is married, is an adult, how can he play such a petty temper? You don't want to eat any more in these two days, okay?" Serve him with a drink and let him suffer a little, he will naturally be honest!"

"It's okay, after tonight, he will definitely be back." Mu Jiaojiao said with a smile.

Mrs. Cui raised her eyebrows, and immediately nodded: "Since you have a plan in mind, then I won't say anything more. Your uncle and I are looking forward to the harmony between the two of you."

"My daughter-in-law understands the painstaking efforts of my aunt and uncle. I just give Liu Lang some time these days to think things through. Now that the time is almost up, I won't let him hang around anymore." Mu Jiaojiao said.

"Well, as long as you have an idea in mind." Mrs. Cui didn't express too much about this, but asked again, "By the way, will you worship the moon with them tonight?"

Mu Jiaojiao nodded. "It's a great day, how can such an interesting event be without me? But I can't stay with everyone until late at night, my body can't stand the cold."

"It's good if you have this heart. I will tell your sister-in-law about the rest, and she will take care of you when the time comes." Mrs. Cui said.

"Daughter-in-law, thank you, Auntie, for your love." Mu Jiaojiao was overwhelmed with gratitude, and hurriedly bowed down to salute.

It was night, the moon and stars were sparse, and a bright full moon hung high in the sky.Banquets were set up in the inner and outer courtyards of the Cui Mansion.The men enjoy the moon and chant poems outside, and the women also place desserts and fruits in the backyard, without mentioning the moon worship.After paying homage to the moon with his sisters-in-law and sisters-in-law, Mu Jiaojiao sat down, chatted with everyone for a while, and then left with the excuse of feeling unwell.

She has always looked sickly, and she almost disappears after dark, and everyone is used to her appearance.Although some people still scolded her for putting on a show in their hearts, on the surface everyone still watched her leave with a smile on their faces.

The fifteenth lady also stood up: "Sister-in-law Six, let me see you off!"

"No need, wouldn't it be better for you to watch the moon with them here?" Mu Jiaojiao refused with a smile.

But Mrs. Fifteen insisted: "I happen to have a few questions to ask my sister-in-law, but I didn't have time a few days ago. Since I have time today, I might as well ask you on the way back."

Ever since she had seen Mu Jiaojiao's ability, the fifteenth lady admired her so much.These days, in addition to keeping in mind the advice of Princess Wei, she practiced tea cooking skills diligently, also collected a few simple medical books and read them, and came to ask Mu Jiaojiao questions from time to time.

Hearing what she said, Mu Jiaojiao couldn't refuse anymore, so he nodded his head. "Then let's walk and talk together."

"Yeah!" The fifteenth lady hurriedly stood up happily, and took her arm affectionately.

Seeing the two walking away chatting and laughing, a little lady suddenly asked, "Has Shiwu Niang changed a lot in the past two days? When I saw her just now, I almost didn't recognize her at first sight."

"That's right! I was the same just now. I was still thinking whose little lady this is who came to our house for the fifteenth day. After careful separation, I found out that this is not the fifteenth lady? I don't know what is going on. , In just a few days, she has changed so much... In fact, her appearance doesn't seem to have changed much, it's that kind of feeling... It seems that she has become more proud and confident!"

"Yes, it's self-confidence! It's also proud! The back is straight and upright, and all of a sudden the spirit is up. I'm just saying, how did she do it? It turned out to be like this! Now I finally Figured it out!"

A few young ladies whispered, and everyone else joined the topic.Another person was puzzled and asked: "I used to see her timid and timid, and she didn't say a few words in front of people. Today, she is generous, talked a few words with all of us, and offered to make tea for us! And She also took the initiative to talk to Sixth Sister-in-law in front of people... Who taught her this?"

"Needless to say, that's naturally your sixth sister-in-law! These days, she only associates with Mrs. Mu. The last time I went to Leyouyuan with Mrs. Mu to watch the sunset, she came back like this!" Young Madam Li said sourly.

Think about it, everyone - it really is!The fifteenth lady had indeed had a lot of contacts with Mu Jiaojiao recently, and she ran to Mu Jiaojiao's side every now and then.And ever since she started dating Mu Jiaojiao, she has become more and more confident. Today, among many of them, she is like a luminous body. It was far from before.It must be known that she was like a little mouse before, and she could not be seen at all when she was thrown in the crowd.

Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help being jealous of the fifteenth lady.Of course, what they envied even more was Mu Jiaojiao.God knows how capable it is to train a timid little lady into this appearance in such a short period of time?If they had known this before, they should be the first to have a relationship with Mu Jiaojiao, otherwise they should be the ones who enjoy this treatment now!
The fifteenth lady didn't know that she had already started to be jealous.

She played with Mu Jiaojiao's hand, the aunt and sister-in-law walked forward while talking, and they entered the yard unconsciously.

Leaving her to drink a cup of tea, Mu Jiaojiao said, "It's getting late, you should go back quickly, I'm going to rest too."

The fifteenth lady still didn't want to leave.These days, she has been thinking about what Mu Jiaojiao said to her that day, delving into Mu Jiaojiao's every move, the more she thinks about it, the more she feels that she is unfathomable, and she is determined to be an outstanding person like Mu Jiaojiao!It's just that these days, because Mu Jiaojiao and Cui Pu's husband and wife are at odds, she doesn't dare to stay longer every time she comes.It's so easy to come here again today, she still has a lot to say to her, but why did Mu Jiaojiao take the initiative to chase her away?She had never taken the initiative to overtake her before!

Although she felt a little sad in her heart, since Mu Jiaojiao said so, she didn't want to stay too long, so she got up and walked out.

Mu Jiaojiao hurried back to the inner room without waiting for her to go far.

When the fifteenth lady went outside, she suddenly noticed something strange—not only did Mu Jiaojiao behave strangely just now, but the courtyard seemed to be too quiet now!The master isn't asleep yet, why are the girls gone?
She stopped subconsciously, and heard a muffled bang behind her, as if something heavy fell to the ground.The voice clearly came from the place she had just left.Vaguely, she seemed to have heard Hongdou calling her a lady!
what happened?

She turned back subconsciously.Going around the screen, she saw Hong Dou hugging Mu Jiaojiao, and the master and servant fell to the ground.On the ground, Mu Jiaojiao's face was ashen, his eyes were closed tightly, and a stream of blood slowly dripped from the corner of his lips...

"what!"

Seeing this, she screamed silently.
