Chapter 33: Garden Secrets (Pink 30+)
He Linwan and Yuan Xiang glanced at each other, and they both saw the surprise and hesitation in each other's eyes.
Surprised that they had heard this man's voice, it was Mu Zhizhen, the eldest son of the Mu family. What they hesitated was whether they should walk away silently while they were not being discovered, since others had chosen such a quiet place to talk.
The voice of the other man who was talking to Mu Zhizhen over there had already sounded with some hesitation: "Shao Ai, you go and persuade your sister, don't make trouble today, if there is anything to do after the birthday banquet is over, so as not to be laughed at." ”
He Linwan and Yuan Xiang both understood from the conversation between the two that the identity of the man who spoke to Mu Zhizhen was Yuan Qi, the prince of Yasukuni.
He Linwan quietly pointed to Yuan Xiang in the direction where the two came, and motioned for them to quietly go back.
Over there, Mu Zhizhen said: "Brother-in-law, do you think my sister is making trouble?" Mu Zhizhen's voice was still gentle, but He Linwan heard a little irrepressible anger from it.
Yuan Qi immediately said: "No, no, no, I don't mean to blame Wan'er, I just don't want to make a big deal today." ”
At this time, an unfamiliar voice lazily interjected: "You really don't have the qualifications to accuse your wife, if you weren't cowardly and incompetent, where would the Yasukuni Mansion need a woman to support you." ”
"Li Yu, do you know what indecent behavior is, don't listen! And our family's housework is not your turn to take care of the beak!" Yuan Qi, who had just looked a little weak and bottomless in front of Mu Zhizhen, immediately changed his attitude, looking very annoyed and angry.
Li Yu teased casually with a smile in his voice: "Who has time to leave your beak in housework." I just think you're a little embarrassed by a man's face. ”
After speaking, Li Yu ignored Yuan Qi, who was pale, and turned to Mu Zhizhen and said, "An Beiyue is here, let me honor the gambling contract." Leave other people's chores alone, how many times can you help with them?"
He Linwan and Yuan Xiang glanced at each other, they were a little embarrassed, if they made a sound at this time, it was estimated that Yuan Qi would be the most unsightly person on their faces. Yuan Xiang saw that the place where they were was relatively hidden, so he simply pulled He Linwan to stand behind a big tree and didn't move, and gestured to make the two maids who came with him not to make a sound.
He Linwan thought. Listening to what Li Yu meant, they should be leaving quickly. When they're gone, they'll come out.
He Linwan suddenly felt that such a scene seemed familiar, and after thinking about it carefully, she couldn't help but feel a little funny, and accidentally hid in the dark and heard embarrassing things, she really encountered it once, but that was many years ago. And that time was related to Li Yu, the son of King Jin.
Over there, Yuan Qi's angry voice interrupted He Linwan's recollection: "Li Yu." Don't deceive people too much!"
Li Yu's answer was that he didn't pay attention to Yuan Qi at all. He didn't come over for Yuan Qi in the first place, and he really didn't deceive him, Li Yu said "go" to Mu Zhizhen. And then he really turned around and left.
His behavior of not taking people in his eyes at all completely angered Yuan Qi, Yuan Qi rushed up to push Li Yu, but he didn't want to push people, but he didn't want to push people, but he didn't stand firm and almost fell, but fortunately he was not embarrassed by Mu Zhizhen, and he couldn't help but tremble with anger.
Li Yu was stunned, but Li Yu didn't laugh at Yuan Qi's indiscretion this time, he just frowned, then patted his sleeve and said to Mu Zhizhen: "I'll wait for you outside." After saying that, he left without looking back.
Yuan Qi pushed Mu Zhizhen away, and was about to say something, when a woman's cold business suddenly sounded: "Enough!"
Yuan Qi's face stiffened when he heard this, and then he looked up at Mu Wanping who was walking towards them at a loss.
Mu Zhizhen touched his nose: "Sister." ”
Mu Wanping ignored it, she walked up to Yuan Qi and looked at him coldly for a moment, and then said to Mu Zhizhen: "You and the prince of Jin go first, I have something to say to your brother-in-law." ”
Mu Zhizhen looked at them, sighed, and then walked in the direction Li Yu left.
After they left, Yuan Qi said for a while: "Ah Wan, when did you come?"
Mu Wanping said coldly: "When you were about to hit someone, I thought I was dazzled by a mistake. ”
Yuan Qi's face turned red, and he defended: "You don't know what Li Yu said just now, he ......"
Mu Wanping answered: "What did he say?"
Yuan Qi was speechless all of a sudden.
Mu Wanping thought that Yuan Qi was at a loss, so he said coldly: "Shizi, the gentleman doesn't do anything, even if he says something, you shouldn't do it." What's more, I don't know about people like Li Yu? He is a very arrogant person, he will never insult others for no reason, and he has always ignored people he doesn't like......
When Yuan Qi heard this, he suddenly interrupted Mu Wanping's words angrily: "It's just a dumb kid who is idle and only lingers every day, how did he become a good person in your mouth? If he is really as good as you say, why didn't you marry him in the first place!"
Mu Wanping's eyes widened in disbelief and looked at Yuan Qi, who had always been gentle and a little cowardly.
Yuan Qi continued to sarcastically in a sharp voice: "Oh, I forgot, it's not that you don't want to marry him, it's that he doesn't want to marry you." ”
Mu Wanping looked at Yuan Qi with a pale face: "You...... What do you say?"
Yuan Qi smiled, and his smile was ugly like crying: "Do you wonder how I know? In the face of my sweetheart who has been in front of me day and night, does she have me in her heart, will I really be too stupid to know? Isn't what you are carefully hiding is the object of love that he gave you in the first place? Awan, why did you marry me in the first place? Is it because you know that I have liked you from the bottom of my heart since I was a child, and I have a good temperament, and I will never say a word to you?"
Mu Wanping was silent for a long time, and suddenly smiled sarcastically, she looked at Yuan Qi like a joke, Mu Wanping said in a calm voice with a hint of madness: "No, you are wrong." It's not that he doesn't want to marry me, he doesn't know my mind at all. I never had any love between him and me, because he liked someone else, and I stole the hairpin you saw, and I often looked at it to make myself die for him!
Yuan Qi was stunned, looking at Mu Wanping and unable to say a word.
Mu Wanping didn't let him go: "As for why I wanted to marry you in the first place, Shizi, don't forget that you took the initiative to marry me in the first place! But it's useless to talk about that now......"
Mu Wanping slowly straightened her waist and said to Yuan Qi coldly and arrogantly: "The matter has come to this, there is no need for us to live like this, Shizi, I am waiting for your resignation!" Mu Wanping said this, and left without looking back.
"Ah Wan!" Yuan Qi's face changed greatly when he heard the word Xiu Shu, but Mu Wanping didn't give him a chance to speak again, and left quickly.
Yuan Qi chased a few steps, and finally couldn't help but whimper and cry.
When these people completely disappeared into the courtyard, He Linwan and Yuan Xiang came out from behind the tree, and Chunxiao couldn't help but sneeze, causing everyone to look at her.
Chunxiao said aggrievedly: "I haven't smelled the fragrance of flowers since I was a child, and I've endured this sneeze for a long time." ”
Yuan Xiang's face was a little strange: "It's good that you endured it, otherwise we would be hated." I didn't expect to hear such a thing, hey!"
He Linwan put away her thoughtful expression and said to Chunxiao: "Remember not to mention what you heard today to anyone, rot it in your stomach." ”
Chunxiao immediately nodded: "I know, big girl." ”
Seeing this, Yuan Xiang also explained to his maid Xing'er, asking her not to chew the root of her tongue after she went out.
At this time, Yuan Xiang and He Linwan were not in the mood to enjoy the flowers, and the two went to a crowded place together, afraid that they would encounter such an embarrassing scene again.
Over there, Mu Zhizhen caught up with Li Yu and said apologetically: "Changqin, my brother-in-law is too tendonous, don't be weird with him." ”
Li Yu bent the corners of his mouth: "Yuan Qi and I are just nodding friends, and it is rare to say a fair word today because of you." But then again, your sister and brother-in-law get along very well, at least on the matter of sneering at me. ”
When Mu Zhizhen heard this, he glanced at Li Yu, then didn't say anything, and shook his head with a wry smile. Some things are destined to rot in the stomach in this life.
"By the way, where does An Beiyue compare with you?" Mu Zhizhen changed the topic.
Li Yu said: "Xu is they really want to see me lose face in front of everyone, An Beiyue asked the eighth prince to borrow the martial arts training ground in the mansion from the Duke of Yasukuni. ”
Mu Zhizhen was shocked: "You want to be here?
Li Yu said with a smile: "Originally, I was a little hesitant, but Mrs. You, who was favored by the Duke of Yasukuni, said that she had never seen a fighting beast, and I heard that Mrs. You had just been wronged by Mrs. Shizi when she mentioned this, and the Duke of Yasukuni agreed in order to coax the beauty." ”
Mu Zhizhen's face was a little unsightly: "This is too ......"
Li Yu saw that Mu Zhi was really like this, but it was a rare positive color and said: "Shao Ai, it is difficult for a Qing official to decide family affairs, and it is useless for you to manage the housework of the Yasukuni Mansion no matter how much you manage, the key person is Yuan Qi, and the person who makes the decision can only be Yuan Qi." ”
Mu Zhizhen sighed: "I don't know, but you don't know my brother-in-law's temperament." ”
Li Yu disagreed: "No matter how weak and useless he is, he is the only son of the Duke of Yasukuni." This identity alone can make him say everything in this mansion except for the Duke of Yasukuni, and the key is whether he can turn a corner. ”
Mu Zhizhen thought for a while and nodded: "What you said makes sense, I'll mention him a little more in the future, I hope he can open his mind, and I don't want to care about these messy things in his house anymore." ”
Li Yu glanced at Mu Zhizhen and didn't say anything more.
