Chapter 123
After a few days, it seems that the Laba Festival is coming.
Laba is not an important festival, and it is not necessary for the whole family to get together, just stay in their respective courtyards, or find good brothers and sisters together, put a few snacks on the table, and cook a pot of hot eight-treasure porridge. Even after this section.
However, this year, the Laba Festival in Mu Mansion is a little different.
There was no other reason, Guo Shangshu wanted to personally bring Guo Shuyan, the third young master of the Guo family, to the door to discuss marriage. According to Guo Shangshu's identity, doing so would undoubtedly give the Mu family enough face, and the Mu family naturally couldn't neglect it.
Ever since it was finalized that Guo Shangshu would come to discuss the marriage, the Mu family couldn't do without those gossips.Previously it was said that the relationship between King Cang and the second lady was rather ambiguous, but now a third son of the Guo family came in out of thin air, and seeing that the marriage is about to be finalized, there will naturally be a lot of people, all with their own minds, waiting to see admiration How will Changge react.
Unexpectedly, as the days went by, the Qiancui courtyard was always calm and calm, and Mu Changge's business was as usual, with no joy, let alone any conflicts.
Everything was the same for her, Bizhu and Suyu, but no matter what, they couldn't suppress the suspicion in their hearts.
"Miss, this servant has the guts to ask, is Miss really willing to marry the third young master of the Guo family?"
After picking out the beans for Laba porridge, Bizhu asked cautiously.
At that time, Mu Changge was picking up the hairpin, pinning it in his hair very gently, smiling at the mirror, and the tassels on the step shaker also swayed a few times.
But when she saw her red lips parted slightly, her expression showed a bit of laziness from getting up early, "The third young master of the Guo family is a talented person with a bright future, why don't I want to?"
Bizhu became anxious, "Miss, if you want to act, just do it for others to see. At this moment, there are only two of us, master and servant. Miss, you can't trust your slaves, right?"
"You girl, you just said a few words, but you are in a hurry." Mu Changge smiled, and his phoenix eyes raised lightly, "Isn't everything I said true? According to my background, if it is true To be able to marry the third young master of the Guo family is such a good marriage that I can't think of, how could I not want to?"
After hearing this, Bizhu became more anxious, and was about to speak, but before she could make a sound, she heard that extremely cold male voice coming from the side of the door.
"Oh? So this is what the second lady thinks in her heart? From this point of view, the king was really self-indulgent. Now that the second lady has her own heart, I don't want to force others to make things difficult for me. Let me congratulate you in advance. miss."
"King, lord!?"
When Bizhu thought about it, her face changed color. The person standing at the door and raising the curtain with one hand was the king of Cang, Qi Jinzhi! ?
Didn't Qi Jinzhi always smile when he came back to Qiancui Courtyard?This time, even if Bizhu stared those two eyes out, Qi Jinzhi couldn't see the usual joy on Qi Jinzhi's face.
The sky outside the door was freezing cold, as if all of it had condensed on his face, forming a piece of ice that could not be melted.
Mu Changge did not expect him to appear suddenly, a trace of astonishment flashed across his face, and then he smiled softly and calmly, and saluted him, "Thank you, my lord, for my kindness, Changge has received it."
As soon as these words came out, the coldness on Qi Jinzhi's face became a little bit heavier in an instant, and the evil fox's eyes met her for a while, and then a sneer fell on his thin lips.
"Second Miss, you're being polite. On the day that Second Miss is happy, this king will definitely send you a generous gift. Today, it seems that this king came here by accident."
Throwing down the chilling words, Qi Jinzhi threw down the door curtain with a hint of anger.
Suyu, who hadn't said anything before, immediately changed her expression, looked back at Mu Changge, struggled for a moment, and then hurriedly chased him out.
When Suyu rushed out of the yard, she was a little too anxious. She seemed to have almost bumped into someone in her haste. After hearing a safe and sound "Ouch", the door curtain was lifted again, and Mu Junru Patting his chest with one hand, he entered the room.
"What's wrong with that maid, she was in such a hurry that she almost knocked me off my feet. If it hits me, it's fine. If something breaks, the old lady will be very unhappy."
"Fourth sister is here." Mu Changge raised his eyes and smiled lightly, as if Qi Jinzhi's anger just now didn't affect her at all, "How precious is something?"
Mu Junru signaled the maid to come forward, put the things in her hands on the table, spread them out one by one, and said: "This is what the old lady asked me to bring to you, and the old lady also asked me to give it to the second sister." Take a word."
"According to the rules, these things should not be given to the second sister. But for so many years, my mother has always regarded the second sister as the apex of her heart. As a grandmother, she shouldn't be too harsh. It's just a hindrance According to the rules, you can't go too far, so I asked me to send it for the second sister in private. The second sister just keep it well and don't make a fuss, treat it as a dowry that the old lady bought for the second sister in private."
What the old lady sent was a few bolts of high-quality silk and satin material. These few bolts of fabric are nothing rare. The most eye-catching thing is the set of emerald hair, which is watery, as if formed by spring water. I can't help but wonder if the wind will blow them and they will turn back into water.
The weight of this set of masks is self-evident, even in the old lady's small warehouse, it is considered one of the rare items.When she took it out, Mu Junru couldn't help showing a trace of jealousy in her eyes.
Once the sour breath came out, Mu Junru couldn't restrain himself, and the words were a little sour.
"The old lady is most likely afraid that giving such a good thing to the second sister will make the third sister look bad. After the second sister accepts it, don't say anything, just quietly treat it as your own dowry, or let others see it." How can you not be jealous?"
Mu Changge stretched out his hand, and lightly touched the jadeite with his fingertips, it was as thick as fat.
Hearing this, she smiled, and squinted at Mu Junru, "After listening to what my fourth sister said, I seem to like it very much. Anyway, no one else knows. If my fourth sister likes it so much, why don't I just give it to you."
Mu Junru quickly waved his hand, "Second sister, don't make such a joke. I'm not jealous of this show, but I just envy the old lady's kindness to the second sister. Which granddaughter would not expect her grandmother to love her, second sister But don’t get me wrong.”
"Since it's a joke, what's the point of talking nonsense." Mu Changge gently closed the jewelry box and smiled slightly, "The old lady doesn't like to make public, so I don't want to thank her with a big fanfare, I still have to trouble four Sister, speak back to the old lady for me."
Carefully put the set of jade stones aside, under the seemingly precious demeanor, what was concealed was the sharp gaze that flashed past Mu Changge's eyes.
If Mu Junru really knew the true meaning of this set of emeralds, even if she begged her to accept it now, she would never accept it.
This set of jewelry seems to be that the old lady loves Mu Changge, a concubine's granddaughter, and wants to buy some important dowry for her in private.
However, what this jewelry full of "heart" means is not the old lady's longing, but compensation, which is compensation for turning a blind eye and allowing the lady to send her to Huangquan Road!
Otherwise, the old lady would definitely not have gifted her with such a set of precious jewelry. The old lady must have done this just to make her feel better.
Mu Changge lowered his eyes slightly, his eyes became sharper.
She was a little hesitant before, not knowing whether the old lady knew the inside story, but now it seems that she and Mu Wenze are just the same!That day, among the people in the old lady's room, except Aunt Jiang, none of them was truly innocent!
She used to think that although the old lady was dissatisfied with herself, she could still be fair.
It wasn't until this gorgeous and precious jewelry was presented to her that she realized that the old lady's fairness was nothing more than that...
Just when Mu Changge was exchanging greetings with Mu Junru, the eldest lady was in the room, holding a cup of ginseng tea, closing her eyes, and listening to the people in front of her, she just opened her eyes, "Oh? Annoyed her?"
The little servant girl tremblingly said, "Go back to Madam, this servant girl saw it with her own eyes, the maidservant in the second lady's room was still in a hurry to chase after the prince, and almost bumped into this servant girl, how could this servant girl get it wrong."
The Da Furen closed her eyes again, her complexion was cloudy and uncertain, after a while, her expression softened a lot, and she ordered Yan Zhi to reward the little maid and sent her away, only then did she show a sneering smile.
This time, even God is helping her!
In her plan, the only thing she was afraid of was the Cang King. Fortunately, that little Hu Meizi hadn't married into the Guo Mansion yet, so she couldn't wait to cross the river and demolish the bridge. How could Qi Jinzhi take care of her as usual?
Once without Qi Jinzhi to rely on, that little Hu Meizi is just a little clever trash, no matter how much she writhes, don't think that she can escape from your palm!
The corner of her mouth curled into a ferocious arc, and the lady slowly shook the ginseng tea in her hand, with a look of color on her face, she drank it all in one gulp...
The next day is Laba Festival.
Early in the morning, the small kitchens in various courtyards of Mu Mansion wafted the aroma of porridge, the aroma of warm porridge, and even the coldness of the icy and snowy land seemed to have diluted a bit.
The big kitchen of the Mu Mansion was also very busy, and people from the Guo family arrived at noon.
According to the rules, today's marriage discussion is the last time before the real engagement. The purpose is to allow the two people who are about to get engaged to meet face to face. If someone is really unwilling, there is still time to regret it before the engagement.
Since there were not many people, they were placed in the old lady's room. Only when the Guo family arrived first could they send a maid to invite Mu Changge.
Seeing that it was noon, Bizhu turned around anxiously, looked at Mu Changge several times, but hesitated to speak.
