Chapter 36: Embarrassment

In the face of Zhou Pei's thoughtful actions, Mu Wan and the others were very happy and hurriedly thanked Zhou Pei.

Zhou Pei took the opportunity to order someone to go to the carriage to get some snacks and fruits, and asked Mu Wan and them to feed the fish.

But Xue Zhiyuan shook his head at this move, looking at the koi fish crowded all over the pond, he said in a deep voice, "The carp in this pond are crowded like this, presumably they can't swim freely, right?" ”

Everyone was stunned, and their eyes fell on him.

Mu Yan also looked at him.

Under the sun, Xue Zhiyuan's skin was slightly white, his body was tall like a pine, and his demeanor was completely indifferent and detached.

What the hell is he going to do?

Mu Yan was very curious.

Xue Zhiyuan raised his eyes and looked around, and said lightly, "The incense in the Jokhang Temple is prosperous, and there must be many pilgrims who come to the release pond every day to feed the fish......

Everyone looked around, and sure enough, there were twenty or thirty fish feeders, all of whom brought boxes of snacks and steamed buns......

"The koi in my own pond can't be fed indiscriminately, not to mention the carp in this release pond, feeding too much, will only make them die faster......

Xue Zhiyuan's tone was a little cold, he squatted down, reached into the pool, and what he lifted up was a dead fish with a white belly.

Everyone was stunned.

"In my opinion, this pond is said to be a release pond, but in fact it is just a cage to imprison these fish......" He smiled coldly, handed the fish to the little guy next to him, whispered a word to the little guy, and the little guy took the fish away.

The crowd was silent.

Zhou Pei's face was very ugly.

He proposed to release the fish, but Xue Zhiyuan did not give him face, and raised such a question to the point.

Zhou Wenyuan's action of feeding the fish also stopped, holding snacks in their hands one by one, not knowing whether to throw them into the pool or not......

The atmosphere was somewhat awkward and dreary.

However, Mu Yan felt that what Xue Zhiyuan said was very right, not only right, but also very insightful, and did not follow the crowd.

She definitely glanced at Xue Zhiyuan, and felt that this person didn't seem to be as rumored in her previous life, if he was really such a cold-blooded person who wanted to kill his father, how could he pity a koi in the pool?

Perhaps, what she heard was only what she heard, and only the person concerned knew what the specific situation was.

But where did the white-bellied fish go?

Mu Yan thought in his heart, and at the same time listened to Zhou Pei's embarrassed cough a few times, and said in a voice, "It seems that Brother Xue has the bottom of it, but I am superficial, not thoughtful, not thoughtful......"

Zhou Pei found himself a step down.

Su Zeng also laughed knowingly, patted Zhou Pei's shoulder and quipped, "I think Brother Zhou loves his sister too much......"

Zhou Pei immediately raised his eyebrows and laughed, "Yes, I don't want to disappoint my sister when I come out." He looked at Zhou Wenyuan with a smile and said, "After all, I only have such a sister, she wants to release fish, and I, as an elder brother, naturally have to do it." ”

Zhou Pei put a few words on his sister about releasing fish.

Mu Yan hated this kind of man the most, and couldn't help but curse in his heart, "It's really not like a man." ”

Zhou Wenyuan's face turned blue all of a sudden, and he opened his mouth to refute on the spot, but the other party was her brother, how could she refute?

A rebuttal will cause a scene of discord between brothers and sisters, with so many pairs of eyes watching, she can't afford to lose this person, let alone let the Mu family sisters laugh shamefully.

She clenched her fingers tightly and swallowed the anger in her heart before she smiled dryly, "Yes, I also heard from others that releasing living things in the living pond can bring good luck, but I didn't expect it to harm these fish......" and hurriedly looked at Xue Zhiyuan flatteringly, and said softly, "It's still the eldest prince who is thoughtful, otherwise a few more fish will suffer today......

She laughed more ugly than she cried.

Mu Qing and Mu Wan both snickered as if they were watching a good show.

Xue Zhiyuan still had a cold face, and he didn't answer Zhou Wenyuan's words, but only said to Xue Huasheng beside him, "It's not too early, shouldn't you go back?" ”

Zhou Wenyuan thought that Xue Zhiyuan would say things like "those who don't know are not guilty" and "you don't mean it" to comfort her, but who knew that he would have such an attitude and ignore her at all.

She felt embarrassed and embarrassed, her face flushed for a moment, and her fists clenched tighter, and if no one was there at the moment, she would definitely cry bitterly.

Zhou Pei also felt that Xue Zhiyuan was too arrogant and rude, and the scene was so embarrassing that he still looked unconcerned.

If it weren't for his father repeatedly telling him to find an opportunity to match his sister Zhou Wenyuan and Xue Zhiyuan before going out, if it weren't for Xue Zhiyuan's aunt being the most favored concubine by the emperor, he wouldn't have planned to laugh all the time.

Both siblings were unhappy.

Including Su Zeng, he also felt that Xue Zhiyuan was too much.

After all, Zhou Wenyuan is a delicate girl, and men should always know to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade.

However, as far as Xue Zhiyuan is concerned, he doesn't feel that there is anything wrong, nor does he feel that pity for fragrant and jade is a virtue that a man should have.

Pity is pity, but if a beauty is like Zhou Wenyuan, it is better not to pity.

In the end, Xue Zhining came out of the round, and said with a smile, "Don't feel disappointed, since the release is killing, it is better not to do it, this is also a merit." ”

The expressions on everyone's faces are just better.

Mu Yan admired Xue Zhining's speaking skills very much, and a few words could make people feel less angry.

She smiled approvingly at Xue Zhining, who knew that Xue Zhining was looking at her, she was afraid of embarrassment, so she quickly opened her eyes.

Zhou Pei took advantage of this to divert the topic and said, "It's not too early, why don't we go to the wing room to eat vegetarian food." ”

This time, Zhou Wenyuan was not the first to answer, she looked uninterested.

Fang Cai's incident made her hate Xue Zhiyuan so much that she didn't want to eat with him at all.

However, Mu Wan and Mu Qing were very interested.

However, Mu Yan didn't plan to be with them, firstly, he felt that he was out of place, secondly, there were many people, and thirdly, the most important thing was that she had a marriage contract, and men and women must pay special attention to it.

While living a stable life, she can't let her reputation be stained with the slightest innocence and become the truth of others.

Of course, it would be rude to say in public that she didn't want to go, and it would make Mu Qing think about it more.

Mu Yan quietly tugged at Xue Huashang's sleeve and said in a low voice, "...... I may not be able to accompany the eldest lady to a vegetarian fast, and my appetite is suddenly a little uncomfortable......"

Xue Huashang was stunned for a moment, but what a smart person she was, she immediately looked clear, and said with a slight smile, "It's okay, let's all go, no one will gossip." ”

Mu Yan coughed dryly and insisted, "I'm really sick ...... stomach."

Xue Huashang raised her eyebrows and sighed, squeezed her hand and said, "It seems that you really don't want to go...... Or will I accompany you? ”
