Chapter 17: Sisters' Reunion

The rain outside has stopped, and I saw a rainbow on the horizon that was about to recede when I looked at Qinsi Lake, and all the girls were excited. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Mu Zhiyue didn't want to live her own little life like in her previous life, so she made an exception and agreed, Mu Zhiyan came out with Mu Zhiyue, and planned to go to Fangxi Courtyard with her to pass the time, but seeing that Mu Zhiyue agreed, she nodded yes.

Several girls were surprised, these two usually rarely mess around with them, but today they all agreed, it was really raining in the sky.

After a few little girls chattered and discussed, they decided to go to a bamboo forest behind the East Garden that the fifth girl Mu Xilan said. There is a slip room, the window of the room is the bamboo forest, the air must be very good after the rain, everyone can watch the scenery there and smell the breeze in the forest, isn't it wonderful.

After agreeing on a few people, the girl led her maids and servants to the bamboo forest.

The bamboo forest is located on the northernmost side of the East Garden, planted against the wall, and after the bamboo forest is the street behind the Mu Mansion. This bamboo forest was planted by Mrs. Mu after the expansion of the house, all the Xiangfei bamboo, the bamboo is not much, so the number of fallen leaves in the forest is not thick.

Because it was decided suddenly, there was no preparation, fortunately, all the gardens in the Mu Mansion were taken care of, so the rooms were clean and tidy, and the maids found the most spacious and beautiful room to clean up, and it was refreshing and refreshing in a moment, and the house was full of fresh air.

Push open the window, you can see the large bamboo forest outside, the bamboo leaves are verdant, the eyes are full of green, the breeze blows, the bamboo leaves make a "rustle" sound, like the sound of a gently played piano.

When the second lady learned that several girls had come to enjoy the scenery in the bamboo forest, she ordered the kitchen to prepare some desserts and preserves, and the little maids came in with trays of different sizes.

The seventh girl, Mu Qingyou, and the eighth girl, Mu Xinwei, were young in the end, and they ate a plate of sugar water and green plums around the table, and the fourth girl, Mu Qinglin, was pulling Mu Jingyun to talk about the scene when she came to this bamboo forest to paint a few days ago.

Mu Zhiyan asked the maid to pull a chair and put it next to Mu Zhiyue, who was standing by the window, and sat down leaning on the back of the chair. Mu Zhiyue found that her second cousin seemed to have a lazy atmosphere wherever she was, and it was rare to see her sitting upright.

Mu Xilan, who proposed to come to the bamboo forest, also stood beside Mu Zhiyue and looked at the bamboo that was close at hand.

It was really embarrassing that several people didn't speak, and Mu Xilan took the lead in breaking this embarrassment and Mu Zhiyue's gossip, "Sixth sister, do you still remember what happened to you a few days ago, the person who surprised your horse is also my cousin, I'm here to accompany you for him." Sun Ergongzi's aunt married into the Rong family and is Mu Xilan's aunt, and she can be regarded as a cousin who can turn a corner.

"What did the fifth sister say, Mrs. Sun had already brought the second son of Sun to our house to accompany me that day, and she also brought a lot of valuables to me to suppress the shock, how can I let the fifth sister apologize to me", Mu Zhiyue replied politely.

Mu Xilan pursed her lips and smiled, "The second cousin of the Sun family, I have met a few times at my uncle's house, and he is a very interesting person. I heard that he had a dispute with his uncle of the Sun family over some things that day, and he grabbed the carriage and wanted to leave home, but he couldn't catch the carriage, so he was thrown off, and the horse ran away with the cart on his own. ”

Mu Zhiyue naturally didn't know these details, and she was not interested in knowing, so she only answered perfunctorily Since everyone is fine.

Mu Xilan didn't see Mu Zhiyue's perfunctory, and continued: "The uncle of the Sun family later asked my eldest aunt to ask my mother to come here, and wanted to ask my mother to help me intercede, and wanted the second cousin of the Sun family to also come to our Mu Mansion to study. ”

This Mu Zhiyue knew that if Sun Yiming didn't come to the Mu family, he wouldn't be his third brother-in-law later.

Mu Jingyun, who had just finished chatting with Mu Qinglin, also came to the window and said, "I heard the maid in the house mention this grandson before, and it is said that he was born with a good appearance and a good temperament. also said that there was a girl from a merchant family in Fengyang Mansion who swore that she would not marry if she was not a gentleman, but Sun Ergongzi didn't look down on her, and the girl almost hung the beam, and she didn't know if it was true or not."

Mu Xilan nodded slightly and said, "Well, I've heard about this too, it's true." I heard my cousin say that the second cousin of the Sun family was just accidentally hit by someone while walking on the road, and happened to touch a fan that the girl had just bought.

Standing by the window for too long and being a little tired, Mu Xilan took Mu Zhiyue and Mu Jingyun's hands and walked to the pine square table in the room and continued: "After inquiring about the identity of the Sun family's cousin, she asked her family to find someone to hand over to marry the Sun family's cousin, and threatened to accompany half of the family's property as a dowry. ”

Several people had never heard of such a bold girl, and they immediately became interested, except for Mu Zhiyan, who was leaning on a chair under the window, and even the four-year-old Mu Xinwei was interested in listening to it.

Mu Xilan poured a cup of tea for everyone present, and then continued: "I heard that Uncle Sun was going to break the leg of the second cousin Sun after he found out, saying that he didn't do his job all day, so he knew how to attract bees and butterflies. ”

After speaking, Mu Xilan sneered and laughed, "That day, I was rushing to my grandfather's house, and as soon as I arrived at the door, I met the carriage of the second cousin Sun, he got out of the car with a blue nose and swollen face, and carried a burden behind him, which scared the porter. He secretly packed up his things and ran out of the house, and ran to my aunt and said that he was going to run away from home, and asked my aunt to lend him some silver. ”

A few people in the house don't go out much, and they are all dumbfounded when they encounter this book-like thing.

Mu Zhiyue has seen Sun Yiming, and she is indeed a Zhilan Yushu and handsome, otherwise she would not have fascinated the third sister. It's just that the behavior is really a little out of tune, and later the Sun family's property was almost lost by him, and the third sister went home all day long to complain that her father didn't pick a good family for her, but she forgot that it was her own trick to let her father marry her.

Mu Qinglin looked at Mu Xilan in disbelief, "Then the second son of the Sun family is really so outstanding, can a little lady not marry him, and even lose his reputation and face?"

Mu Xilan thought for a while and said: "He is indeed quite good-looking, since he has come to our Mufu clan study, he will definitely have a chance to see it."

Mu Zhiyue never knew that her sister would discuss a man so openly in private, was this really not her own delusion? Looking back at Mu Zhiyan, who was still closing her eyes under the window, she was curious if this second cousin was here to sleep.

I really didn't want to hear anything about Sun Yiming anymore, so Mu Zhiyue hurriedly changed the topic and asked Mu Qinglin, who was sitting next to her: "I heard the second uncle in Ciyan Hall just now say that the eldest brother is going out to study?"

Mu Qinglin and Mu Chenqian are compatriots of the same mother, so they are naturally very close, and their emotions are not so high when they hear this, and they respond in a low voice, "I heard my mother say that my eldest brother will set off after my grandfather's birthday, and I don't know how long it will take." ”
