Chapter Fifty-Seven: Ordinary Grate

Now that Xia Yi has been found, the banquet will not be delayed any longer, and it will start soon. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

The third prince came all the way to Fengyang, of course he would not go back so soon, and would stay in the Han family for a longer time.

Because he was already tired from the hurried journey for several days, he only used half of the banquet and went back to the guest room arranged by the Han Mansion to rest.

As soon as the three princes left, the people present suddenly felt that the atmosphere was a lot more relaxed.

Xia Yi and Fang Ziyu's spirits were very good, and they drank wine with a group of rich children, and the wine was strong, and they called friends to meet and fight again tomorrow.

On the side of Funing Hall, the banquet has ended, and some people have already left first, and only a few of their own male guests are still waiting there.

Old lady Mu has a special identity, so naturally there is no reason to leave first, so the daughters of the Mu family have never left.

Mrs. Li called the maid to set up two tables of leaf cards, and several ladies accompanied the two old ladies to play, and Mu Zhiyan stood behind Mrs. Mu to help her look at the cards.

Mu Zhiyue didn't understand this, so she found a corner to sit in, in her previous life, she only learned to play horse hanging with those noble ladies in Beijing, and she didn't understand the leaf card.

Besides, with Mu Zhiyue's current age, it is normal to not understand the leaf card.

Mu Qinglin and Mu Xilan have long had a friendship with Han Yao, so as soon as they were free, the three of them got together and whispered that they didn't know what to say, looking at Mu Qinglin's appearance, it should be a pleasant thing.

Because Mu Jingyun had an old grudge with Han Yao, he didn't come over and pulled Mu Zhiyue to speak.

During the conversation, he inadvertently mentioned how Mu Zhiyan knew that Xia Gongzi and what kind of person Xia Gongzi was.

Mu Zhiyue thought it was funny, she was always considered a good cliché by Mu Jingyun when she was carrying the skin of an eight-year-old child, this is the second time she has been reborn, right?

She blinked a pair of big eyes and said innocently: "How could the second sister say this to a child of mine, if the third sister wants to know, I will ask someone to help you."

Mu Jingyun secretly said why Mu Zhiyue followed her words so obediently this time, but she still said with a look of embarrassment on her face: "This is not good, what if the second sister thinks you are nosy."

Mu Zhiyue smiled and said, "It's okay, it won't."

Then he opened his mouth and called Xiao Zhuo over: "Xiao Zhuo, you go and call the second sister out, just say that the third sister wants to ask her about Xia Gongzi."

Xiao Zhuo looked at his own girl and then at Mu Jingyun, hiding the smile in his heart, and turned around to leave with a happy "belch".

When Mu Jingyun heard this, he hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop Xiao Zhuo, who was about to leave, and said with a look of gloom on his face: "Sixth sister, don't talk nonsense, when did I say that I would ask the second sister Xia Gongzi about it."

Mu Zhiyue put on a stunned expression and said, "The third sister asked me just now, and you didn't stop me when I said I was helping, how can you ask me, but you can't ask the second sister." Third sister, don't worry, the second sister is very talkative. ”

Mu Jingyun hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Sixth sister misunderstood, I just said it casually, don't take it seriously."

Then he hurriedly said, "I'll go to the fifth sister to have a look", and left in a hurry.

Xiao Zhuo stood beside Mu Zhiyue and finally couldn't hold back his giggles, and Mu Zhiyue also pursed her lips and smiled.

This Mu Jingyun wanted to use herself once or twice, and pretended to be pure and ignorant, she just gave a small warning, not an exaggeration, right?

The master and servant were happy about what had just happened, and a light cough behind them attracted them, and Mu Zhiyue turned her head to see that the second lady Jin, who had noticed today, was standing behind her and looking at her with a smile.

What she said just now must have been heard by the second lady Jin, and for a while, Mu Zhiyue didn't know what to think, and felt a little embarrassed.

She lowered her head, gave a shallow salute to Mrs. Jin and wanted to leave, but who knew that Mrs. Jin stopped her, "Miss Mu, please wait."

Mu Zhiyue just took a step and looked back at Second Lady Jin suspiciously, the two did not know each other, she didn't know what Second Lady Jin was going to do when she stopped her.

"Can we talk?", Second Lady Jin's voice was very delicate, which was a little different from the fortitude of her appearance.

Mu Zhiyue nodded and followed Second Lady Jin to the veil on the side of the window, Second Lady Jin didn't speak, just looked over Mu Zhiyue's back at the lively crowd in the distance, her eyes were deep.

Mu Zhiyue was puzzled, what was the purpose of this Second Lady Jin, why did she call herself and take care of herself, she politely did not speak.

Second Lady Jin wandered for a while before she withdrew her gaze, reached out and took out something from her sleeve and handed it to Mu Zhiyue, saying, "Miss Mu, do you know this?"

Mu Zhiyue looked at the hand of Mrs. Jin Er, what she held in her hand was a half-moon-shaped comb grate, the grate was made of boxwood, the color of the more common boxwood grate was darker, and the top was carved with a few irises, colored with black lacquer and gold lacquer, and there was a word at each end of the bottom of the grate, but it seemed to be often rubbed, and it was a little difficult to identify.

Mu Zhiyue shook her head, the style of this grate is very simple, but she doesn't know it.

Seeing Mu Zhiyue's denial, a look of disappointment appeared in her eyes, and then she said: "I confessed my mistake, Miss Mu looks very similar to one of my old friends, I really took the liberty of it."

Mu Zhiyue smiled thoughtfully, "It's okay, it's been a few years since I looked at this grate, and I still can't let go of it after so many years, it can be seen that Mrs. is a long-term person, I hope Mrs. can find your old friend as soon as possible."

Second Mrs. Jin nodded, but the smile on her face was much more restrained, "Thank you Miss Mu for your kindness, I still have something to do, so I'll leave first."

Mu Zhiyue smiled and sent away Second Mrs. Jin, secretly saying that this Second Mrs. Jin is also a strange person, no wonder her son can make the move of arresting people and sending maids on the street.

Over there, Mrs. Mu lost a lot of money, and even said that her brain was not good when she was old, and Mrs. Han laughed at her for daring to rely on the old man here to sell before she was old.

In the midst of laughter, the banquet in front of him finally dispersed.

The day is falling, the golden crow is falling, the guests are scattered, and the horse is stepping on the sun, and the bell is crisp......

Mu Zhiyue sat in the carriage back to the house and fell asleep, these days he was used to the idle life of pampering, and he was suddenly a little unsuitable for socializing all day.

Ling Yan looked at it, "Girl, but do you want the slave to help you press it?"

Mu Zhiyue waved her hand, "No, I'll just lean on it for a while", leaning on the thick velvet cushion in the carriage, feeling a lot more relieved.

Mu Zhiyan glanced at her and said, "Your body is too bad, you have only been out for less than a day, and you can't get up from tiredness?"

Mu Zhiyue closed her eyes and didn't open them, and the corners of her mouth twitched: "I ran a long way today, second sister must have forgotten."

What she said was that she saw Xia Yi's black shadow rushing to the lake.

Mu Zhiyan wanted to say a few more words to her, but found that her eyelashes were not trembling, her breathing was steady, and she was actually asleep. I couldn't help laughing, I could fall asleep in this bumpy carriage, which showed that I was really tired.

Mu Zhiyue slept soundly all the way, and finally returned to Mu Mansion in the swaying of the carriage.

I got out of the carriage in a daze, and I had already arrived outside the door of Ciyan Hall, and it turned out that Mrs. Mu was also tired and anxious, so she asked someone to drive the carriage into the courtyard.

Rubbing her sleepy eyes, Mu Zhiyue caught a glimpse of a third-class maid from Fangxie Courtyard looking at her from afar at the gate of the West Garden, with a slightly anxious look on her face.

Mu Zhiyue didn't move, waiting for Mu Zhiyan to help her grandmother follow her grandfather's footsteps into Ciyan Hall, and then said goodbye to your aunts before turning around and leaving.
