Chapter 223
When I returned to Mufu and saw Shang Qirui coming, naturally everyone was happy, and the old lady came out in person to accompany Shang Qirui and talked for a while.
Shang Qirui said that he wanted to go to the lotus pond to have a look, but the old lady intended to let Mu Qingge accompany Shang Qirui, so she didn't follow.
Mu Qingge was in a good mood and accompanied Shang Qirui to the lotus pond.
"Your Highness, enjoy it, there are no lotus flowers to enjoy at this time, I don't want to waste time here, Your Highness, take your time." Mu Qingge smiled like a flower, and left after speaking, leaving Shang Qirui stunned in place. She didn't want to accompany Shang Qirui here and make others feel as if she had done something with him.
Shang Qirui couldn't cry and laugh even more, he and Mu Qingge have met often recently, and there is more time to chat between the two. Shang Qirui slowly felt that Mu Qingge was completely different from the Mu Qingge in his memory, and many of her views were not inferior to herself in two lives, let alone compared with those children of the same age. This kind of getting along makes Shang Qirui feel quiet and harmonious in his heart. It seems that when he returned to the original battle of Jincheng, he thought that she was just an ordinary child, talking about everything to each other, and getting along very happily.
In such an atmosphere, Shang Qirui couldn't bear to think about the unpleasant memories of his previous life. Without the fetters of memory, Shang Qirui is good to Mu Qingge. This kind of affection, Mu Qingge can naturally feel it, so she is now less afraid and defensive of Shang Qirui. This made Mu Qingge more and more natural in front of Shang Qirui, for example, today, she didn't want to accompany Shang Qirui, so she left generously. If only before. She would never do that.
Shang Qirui was stunned for a moment and couldn't help laughing. As long as he didn't think about the things in his previous life, he couldn't be really angry with Mu Qingge. If she wants to leave, she will leave, but she thinks in her heart that as soon as she is married, she will marry the door to see if she can avoid herself like this.
As Mu Qingge said, when the spring is cold, where is there any scenery to see in the lotus pond? He said to come to the lotus pond to enjoy the flowers. But whatever. It's probably because of that too. The old lady only felt. Shang Qirui wanted to be alone with Mu Qingge, so he didn't follow. It's a pity that some people didn't appreciate it and left.
Shang Qirui sighed lightly. There was a smile on the corner of his mouth. Now that she's gone. It's time for you to leave. This lotus. Let's wait until the summer.
"Ah......" A soft moan made Shang Qirui, who was about to pull his legs and leave, paused. What happened to Mu Qingge, right?
"It hurts......" The voice continued, gentle and tactful, and it was vaguely unclear.
Shang Qirui was immediately sure that this was definitely not Mu Qingge's voice. If she was really hurt. I've been shouting at the top of my voice for a long time, where is this happening? Although the girl seems to be soft and weak, dignified and generous on weekdays, he has seen her most comfortable side, and she has no reserve that a woman should have, and she dares to do anything.
I remember the first time she was injured, she stood in front of her expressionlessly, with only three words: "Take off your pants." β
Shang Qirui's cheeks were slightly hot, he didn't know that she was a girl at that time, and he didn't feel embarrassed. But now that I think about it, it's still quite embarrassing. It's just that she doesn't know that she is a girl's house, looking at a big man's thighs, and still touching her legs...... Well, it's a healed injury, how can she not blush and her heart beat, and she doesn't even shake the hand holding the knife?
Suddenly wanting to meet Mu Qingge, Shang Qirui turned around and left.
"Help......" The voice came again, and this time Shang Qirui heard it clearly, and the voice was next to him. It's close.
His brows jumped slightly, and Shang Qirui remembered the one who stopped him, saying how good he was to her and how close he was to her. And how she loved her woman. If he is not mistaken, that woman is the third lady of the Mu family, Mu Qingge once told him that when she was not in good health, only this third sister was good to her.
Shang Qirui snorted coldly, this trick is a little too weak.
"Help......" the voice revealed anxiety. Shang Qirui paused, he didn't remember the woman's voice. What if it's not a play, and someone is really hurt? If it was Mu Qingge's family, she would hope that she could reach out to save her, right? Even if it was really that woman, he should have warned her.
There is a circle of pines and cypresses planted on the side of the lotus pond, which is evergreen all year round, and the environment of Mufu seems to be like this in many places. I don't know what kind of arrangement it is in, and there are small patches of hidden places everywhere that are not easy to find.
The sound of help came from behind the pine and cypress, Shang Qirui picked up the bushes, went around to the back of the pine and cypress, and saw a woman in light purple clothes falling to the ground. In such a cold weather, she wore little clothing, and she was already shivering from the cold.
Shang Qirui's eyes were cold, he was still disappointed, this woman was really Mu Qingyao.
"Your Highness......" Mu Qingyao saw Shang Qi Ruilai, a trace of joy flashed in her eyes, and she called in a coquettish voice. I wanted to stand up, but I didn't know if it was seriously injured, so I got up and fell down, and the beauty gasped, "Oops......"
Shang Qirui looked at Mu Qingyao's big drama coldly, didn't say a word, and turned around to leave.
"Your Highness!" Mu Qingyao was anxious, her voice rose steeply, and when she saw Shang Qirui looking over, she softened again, "How can you see death and not save it?" I'm one of your people. β
"First, you're not going to die." Shang Qirui turned around, squatted two steps away from Mu Qingyao, and said slowly, "Second, this world is my father's world, not mine, so you are my father's people, not mine." You can eat things indiscriminately, but you can't talk indiscriminately, you know? β
Probably having thought that Shang Qirui would react like this, Mu Qingyao was not very surprised, but her eyes were still a little more gloomy, and she was obviously very unhappy.
"If it's okay, I'll take my leave." Shang Qirui stood up and prepared to leave again.
Suddenly, he froze, because Mu Qingyao suddenly saved his thighs.
"What do you do?" Shang Qirui was furious and turned to glare at the woman who was holding him.
Mu Qingyao had already stood up along Shang Qirui's body, grabbed Shang Qirui's arm, and exhaled like a lan: "Your Highness, it's so cold, can you help......"
"You ......" Shang Qirui was really scared this time, how could the young lady of the dignified Mu family do such a shameless thing?
Mu Qingyao grabbed Shang Qirui with one hand, and he didn't know how to move with one hand, and half of the single clothes on his body faded, revealing a white and tender chest.
A dangerous glint flashed in Shang Qirui's eyes. But it's fleeting. He is not afraid of this kind of entanglement, but if he kills Mu Qingyao, he is afraid that he will still be sad according to Mu Qingge's personality. He still couldn't kill Mu Qingyao.
Mu Qingyao saw that Shang Qirui didn't move. Thinking that his method had worked, his eyes flashed with joy, and he hugged Shang Qirui tightly. She knew that Shang Qirui had come to Mufu, and she tried her best to escape. I thought of this method. She didn't know in advance whether her method could impress Shang Qirui. So she had already called her personal maid to find the old lady, and after a while, she took the old lady to the lotus pond. At that time, no matter whether Shang Qirui likes himself or not, as long as the old lady sees that she is in disheveled clothes with Shang Qirui, is she afraid that Shang Qirui will be able to shirk responsibility? As long as she marries into the prince's mansion, she is sure that other wives and concubines will not be able to fight her.
It's just that now it seems that Shang Qirui is a little moved. I knew that I shouldn't have let the little girl go to the old lady, Mu Qingyao was still a little annoyed, after all, it was still a shame for such a thing to spread out. If Shang Qirui could marry him willingly, why did he think of such a clumsy plan?
But Mu Qingyao had no chance to regret it, because she had already heard the old lady's voice: "What about the Third Highness?" Didn't you say something happened to them? β
"Three...... Your Highness, just now, just now was here......" The little girl's voice was full of unease.
"Hmm......" Mu Qingyao snorted softly, successfully attracting the old lady's attention.
"Who's behind?" The old lady was afraid that Mu Qingge and Shang Qirui still had an extra heart. Instead of walking over directly, he asked in a loud voice.
"Ah, grandmother......" Mu Qingyao's voice was full of panic.
The old lady's face suddenly changed greatly, wasn't Mu Qingyao locked up tightly? How did it end up here? What about Mu Qingge?
"Stand down, all of you! No one is allowed to follow. Don't spread a word about this matter! It is worthy of the old lady who has been in the back house for many years, and quickly calmed down, first sent the subordinates who followed her, and let Zhao's mother guard by the lotus pond.
Only then did he walk behind the pine and cypress trees, and Mu Qingyao waited for a long time and no one came in. was already in a hurry, and when he raised his head and looked at Shang Qirui's dark eyes, he couldn't help but shudder, and for a moment felt that he had done something stupid.
"You ......" Rao is old lady was prepared, but she was still frightened when she saw the picture in front of her, and she couldn't say anything to Shang Qirui, so she couldn't find the words to say at once. She originally thought that even if the two of them had something, they wouldn't be able to do things that went too far in broad daylight, but now it seems that there can be anything more excessive?
"Old lady." Shang Qirui looked at the old lady with a smile, "I didn't expect there to be such a lovely subordinate in the house, although it is not polite, but it is also a little interesting. Although His Highness looks down on such people, it is still okay to have fun. I don't know if the old lady is willing to cut her love? Give me this girl, right? If you really don't want to, your highness can give you money...... Even double the price is okay...... Anyway, such a girl, with the cultivation of the old lady, probably wouldn't be willing to be raised in Mufu, right? β
Shang Qirui said it seriously, but Mu Qingyao was already as stunned as a wooden chicken.
The old lady didn't expect Shang Qirui to say this. Speaking of which, even if he was willing to take in Mu Qingyao, what would he do?
That's just the status of a maid, forget it after playing, let alone the side concubine, I'm afraid I can't even get into a room, and in the end, the face of the Mu family is afraid that I will not be thrown back to my grandmother's house.
When she first saw this scene, the old lady really thought about it in her heart, otherwise she would have planned it and let Shang Qirui marry Mu Qingyao together. In this way, even if there will be gossip, it is better than Mu Qingyao regenerating right and wrong at home.
But when Shang Qirui said this, the old lady never dared to agree, and she couldn't tell Mu Qingyao's true identity now.
Shang Qirui said this, to explain, it was also for the sake of the Mu family's face. Shang Qirui has already said very clearly, it was Mu Qingyao who was wearing a single coat and took the initiative to pounce on Shang Qirui. If this matter spreads, the Mu family will still have no face at all.
Anyway, the old lady is in a dilemma. She knew Mu Qingyao's temperament, coupled with the previous request of the Li family, the old lady was very sure in her heart that what Shang Qirui said was the truth.
Mu Qingyao didn't expect it to be so far, she was completely calmed by Shang Qirui's words. Before, she was full of joy, thinking that she had finally won Shang Qirui's heart. She still naively thought that even if Shang Qirui didn't like herself anymore. can have a good reputation, and he can only marry himself. But now it seems that Mu Qingge is right, she really doesn't know Shang Qirui too well. Shang Qirui on weekdays is simply fake! Where is he what Prince Charming. Where is what the dream lover. It's clearly a devil in a handsome coat!
He humiliated himself so much that he didn't hesitate at all, Mu Qingyao couldn't believe it: "Your Highness, how can you do this?" You obviously know that it is Mu Qingyao, the third lady of the Mu family! How can you do that?! What's wrong with me loving you, you ......"
"Shut up!" The old lady was furious. She hasn't come up with a countermeasure yet, Mu Qingyao has already grabbed the sky, isn't she afraid that this matter will spread out?
"Are you actually the third lady of the Mu family?" Shang Qirui gently pushed Mu Qingyao away, as if taking away a dirty rag, but his expression was extremely surprised. "I thought the third sister in Qingge's mouth. Should she be a dignified and generous lady? You're really far from being like this. I see, you're impersonating, right? Maybe the third lady of your family punished you for something, and you can't be angry. So the one who framed the third lady? And yes. What you say doesn't make sense. Why should I know you? I don't remember seeing you somewhere? Of course, perhaps, how many times have we unconsciously met before? But I'm sorry. I have a bad memory. I can't always remember the dirty things, the bad things. β
Mu Qingyao's face was crooked, and the old lady had already stepped forward and covered Mu Qingyao's mouth tightly.
"I'm sorry, Third Highness, it's the old body who can't discipline me. There is such a shameless maid in the family, which makes your Royal Highness embarrassed. The old lady bowed to Shang Qirui.
Shang Qirui hurriedly returned the courtesy: "The old lady is really strict, you are busy with a lot of things, so many things need you to deal with." This is occasionally oversight. It's not your fault that one or two shameless girls are bricked in. β
What else can be done now? can only follow Shang Qirui's words, Mu Qingyao is just an ignorant little girl. In this way, the reputation of the Mu family can be restored to the greatest extent, the old lady has already heard from Shang Qirui's words, as long as he takes care of Mu Qingyao in the future, he will not spread this matter. After all, he still wants to marry Mu Qingge, if something bad happens to the Mu family. It's also not good for Mu Qingge.
Thinking of Mu Qingge, the old lady shuddered in her heart again, I wonder if Shang Qirui would have any thoughts about Mu Qingge because of this matter? Although she didn't care much about whether Mu Qingge was doing well or not, if Shang Qirui quit because of this matter, it would be a big slap in the face for the Mu family. If Mu Qingge is affected by this matter, after marrying into the Three Princes' Mansion, he will not be favored. So God's plan, and not in vain?
The old lady thought a lot for a while, and when she saw that Shang Qirui's attitude was quite gentle, she was slightly relieved, and said, "It is our blessing that His Highness treats people generously. But we can't let that leave us alone. This girl, although Her Highness said that she was quite interesting, wanted to buy it back. However, the old man thought that such a girl was really not suitable to stay in the prince's mansion. If His Highness doesn't dislike it, the old body can send His Highness a few obedient girls. Such a girl did such a shameful thing, of course, she could only sell it. I also hope that His Royal Highness can be fulfilled, and the old body is thin. β
Shang Qirui looked at the old lady, deliberately pondered for a while, and then sighed regretfully, and said: "Since the old lady is so selfless and strict in law enforcement, it is not good for His Highness to force it." It's just a girl, although it's a pity, it's not important. The old lady wants to be punished, and I don't want it. It's just that the old lady must not let such a girl stay at home anymore, otherwise, it will not be good to bring my fiancΓ©e badly. β
The latter words were said with a smile, and the old lady breathed a sigh of relief, Shang Qirui meant that he would not blame Mu Qingge for this matter.
"Mother Zhao." The old lady angrily called Zhao's mother in.
"Escort this girl back to me, look at it, don't let her run away, I'll have a good trial later!" The old lady glanced at Mother Zhao.
Mother Zhao was also frightened when she saw Mu Qingyao's appearance, but she was not stupid, and immediately guessed what was going on. After listening to the old lady's words, I understood that Mu Qingyao was stealing chickens and rice. Even if she is a servant woman, Zhao's mother has her own preferences.
Mu Qingyao did such a thing, she naturally wouldn't like it. Moreover, according to the old lady's statement and Shang Qirui's attitude, this Mu Qingyao will not have any drama in the future. Therefore, Mother Zhao grabbed Mu Qingyao in her hand without pity, and stuffed Zhang Luopa into her mouth, making her speechless.
Where did Mu Qingyao receive such treatment? On weekdays, Zhao's mother lowered her eyebrows when she saw her, and she was immediately angry, but she couldn't speak.
Mother Zhao pretended not to see anything, and replied to the old lady in a loud voice: "Madame, don't worry, the old slave must take good care of her." β
"Okay, take it away, be careful, don't let her." The old lady waved her hand and motioned for Zhao's mother to leave, and did not forget to tell her repeatedly.
Mother Zhao has been following the old lady for many years, and she understands what she means, not to let others find out. Such a shameful thing, she naturally knew, and swore to agree and go.
Mu Qingyao was angry and anxious, and helpless, and wanted to see Shang Qirui, but she was obviously not as strong as Zhao's mother, and as soon as she turned around, she was pressed back by Zhao's mother.
"Since the old lady still has something to do, I will take my leave." Shang Qirui and the old lady acted for a long time, and they were also bored. Even though you know what's going on, you still talk nonsense with your eyes open, can you not be bored?
"Then the old body is sent to His Highness." The old lady wished that the great god would leave quickly, and hurriedly agreed.
"Don't sue Qingge about this matter, right?" Shang Qirui thought about it, and still said, "In order to avoid suspicion, she didn't want to play with me, but something like this happened, I'm afraid she will feel uncomfortable." β
The old lady naturally agreed, and she didn't plan to sue Mu Qingge. Shang Qirui is Mu Qingge's fiancΓ©, Mu Qingyao does this, no matter how generous Mu Qingge is, he will not be able to pass that hurdle in his heart.
Shang Qirui nodded with satisfaction, and then politely refused the old lady's kindness, didn't let her send it, and went out by himself.
In the evening, as soon as Mu Qingge finished eating, Mu Wenhan came.
"Why did my brother come here? Have you eaten? Do you want to use some more? Mu Qingge had been with Mu Wenhan for so long during the day, but he didn't expect him to come over again at this time, and hurriedly asked.
"I've already eaten it." Mu Wenhan looked a little absent-minded.
"What's wrong?" As soon as Mu Qingge saw Mu Wenhan's appearance, he knew that something was wrong and asked.
For this brother, she likes it from the bottom of her heart, and she will do his things as her own. Although Mu Wenhan is sometimes not very mature, she can't look at a teenage child with the eyes of a person who has lived for two lifetimes. As long as Mu Wenhan is still willing to talk to herself about him, she is willing to help him.
"I'm going to my grandfather's place today,......" Mu Wenhan hesitated for a moment and said, "I heard my grandfather reprimanding my grandmother......"
Mu Qingge was stunned, Mu Qi reprimanded the old lady? Although the old lady is a continuation, but over the years, the Mu family has been taken care of very well, and Mu Qi has always respected the old lady very much, how big of a thing happened to make Mu Qi reprimand the old lady?
"I didn't know at the time, I only vaguely heard my grandfather say something that I couldn't even look at, I was afraid that my grandfather and grandmother would find out, so I didn't dare to get too close." Mu Wenhan continued, "After a while, my grandmother left with a calm face, and her eyes were a little red, as if she had cried. β
Cry? A woman like the old lady can cry too? After thinking about it, Mu Qingge felt funny again, who wouldn't cry? The point is, what happened to the Mu family that made Mu Qi and the old lady so out of shape?
"Although my grandfather saw me later, he was also full of displeasure." Mu Wenhan sighed, "I didn't dare to ask what the hell was going on. β
Mu Qingge saw that Mu Wenhan hadn't said anything about what had happened for a long time, and was a little anxious: "Then what happened?" β
"I don't know what the specific thing is, but ......" Mu Wenhan paused, "I heard that my grandfather sent several women who knew some martial arts to the courtyard of the third sister. I also heard that the third sister was locked up, and even the eldest aunt was not allowed to see her. (To be continued.) )
