On the morning of May 16, Shen Zhuru had already gone to Jinghe Garden to ask for peace before dawn.

After saying a few polite words that were not nutritious, her mother-in-law Mu Liu Xinyue suddenly straightened up and called her name.

"Zhuru."

"Yes, mother-in-law."

"The day after tomorrow is my mother's 60th birthday, I am going to go back to Chayang County, and by the way, I will talk to my eldest brother and your uncle about porcelain, and you will also go with you."

"Huh? I'm going too? Shen Zhuru was invited by her mother-in-law for the first time and couldn't help but be a little flattered.

"What? Aren't you happy? Mu Liu Xinyue frowned, slightly unhappy.

"No, mother-in-law, I'm not unhappy, I'm just a little surprised. When to leave and what do I need to prepare? What about Xianggong? Do you go together or stay at home? After a few words of inquiry, Shen Zhuru was indescribably nervous.

"Fenghua is naturally a past. It's his grandmother's birthday, how can he be missing. You don't need to prepare anything, you just need to take care of Fenghua, maintain the demeanor and stomach that the young lady of the Mu family should have, don't lose the face of the Mu family, I will deal with it well, you don't need to interfere. ”

"Yes, I will take care of my father-in-law, and I will not bother you, mother-in-law."

"I hope you do what you say. You don't have to come over tomorrow morning to say goodbye, you can get up a little late, but don't miss the hour. ”

"Yes, mother-in-law."

After coming out of Jinghe Garden, Shen Zhuru returned to Fenghua Garden.

"Lady, when you came back from your mother's side, I saw that you were a little absent-minded, did something happen? Could it be that your mother has some problems to make it difficult for you? Mu Fenghua took a glass of water and handed it to Shen Zhuru, and asked softly.

"It's not embarrassing, it's just a little unexpected." Shen Zhuru said and took a sip of water.

"Accidents? What surprised you? ”

"Unexpectedly, your mother actually invited me to attend your grandma's birthday banquet, she kept looking at me unpleasantly, and suddenly opened her mouth to invite, which was somewhat flattering, which made me feel very surprised." Shen Zhuru replied and put down the cup in his hand.

"Hehe, I thought it was. In fact, my mother is not such an unreasonable person. At least in front of outsiders, she won't dump you in the face for no reason. My mother attaches great importance to the reputation of the Mu family, my father is her god, she does so much just because she doesn't want the reputation of the Mu family to be humiliated, so that my father has no face to do business outside. As for letting you go, it's because you are the daughter-in-law of the Mu family, my lady. It is appropriate to meet the elders. If you can't see anyone, I'm afraid all kinds of gossip will fly all over the sky. So, you get the idea? ”

"Oh, it's all because of your face. Then I don't have anything to worry about. ”

"Worried? What do you have to worry about? ”

"Ahem, it's just a matter of saying, don't worry about anything, don't guess." Shen Zhuru coughed lightly, obviously hiding her taste a little.

Mu Fenghua's eyes rolled slightly, and he suddenly asked with a smile: "Isn't the lady worried that my mother will take advantage of my grandmother's birthday banquet to find me a wife?" ”

"I don't have any."

"Whether there is it or not, you don't have to worry about it, lady. My grandmother's family is in the porcelain business, and half of my father's business dealings, so he can be regarded as relying on my family to do business. At least at the level of Miss Yuelong of the Qiao family. Otherwise, it's impossible, so you can relax. Mu Fenghua said with a smile, the smile was clearly a little narrow.

Shen Zhuru glared at her, and replied unhappily: "I said that I didn't worry about this, why did you mention Qiao Yuelong to me." Or is there something in your mind? ”

"Yes, if I said the wrong thing, I should be beaten. I'm also worried that you're still remembering the foolish thing my mother did last time. But fortunately, the Qiao family refused, otherwise it would have been enough to choke. ”

"Enough? Not necessarily. Qiao Yuelong is also a delicate and beautiful girl, will you look down on it? ”

Mu Fenghua was silent for a moment, twitched his nose and sniffed Shen Zhuru's body.

"Lady, do you smell it? It's so sour and vinegar that it's sour. ”

"You, beg for a beating." Shen Zhuru stretched out his pink fist and slammed it towards Mu Fenghua, but it made him flash and dodge.

"I can't fight, I can't fight."

"Mu Fenghua, you stop for me."

"Come on, come on. Can't hit, can't hit. ”

"You can't beat it, can you? Look at the hidden weapon. ”

Talking well, after a while, it became a full martial arts again, and the cups and teapots in the sky flew out of the living room, just like juggling, throwing one and catching one by one, but it was a lot of fun.

"Alas, the young master is really a fallen feeling, and he is getting more and more childish. Is this still the young master I knew before? Can't believe it. Qibao stood aside and shook his head and sighed, but there was no response, only a faint glance cast by the four people beside him.

In the early morning of the next day, before the hour arrived, Shen Zhuru was already waiting with Mu Fenghua at the gate.

On this trip to Liu's house in Nanyang County, he only brought a rain and Yueyang, Yumian and Yueqin stayed at home, and Qibao Lei couldn't move.

Originally, the time of this trip to Nanyang County would collide with the flower-viewing party held by Qiao's family, and it seemed that it would not be possible, but it was also a coincidence, Qiao's family informed that this flower-viewing party needed to be postponed for a few days, postponed to the twenty-fifth day, but it was still able to catch up with the time to come back from Nanyang County's birthday.

As for the pair of jade butterflies that were rejected at the beginning, the person who was sent by Mu Fenghua to disguise her was returned the rejected gift the next day, and the person who replaced her that day did not see her mother-in-law Mu Liu Xinyue, but the pair of jade butterflies were taken back, and they didn't even leave a word.

Shen Zhuru didn't know what this mother-in-law had in mind.

A few days have passed since this incident, and my mother-in-law is like no one, she hasn't said anything, and she won't ask for trouble to ask for scolding, pretending not to go on.

As soon as the hour arrived, her mother-in-law Mu Liu Xinyue was late, Yicui, as her personal maid, was still carrying a burden, and the boxy one was obviously a box, I think it was a congratulatory gift, Shen Zhuru guessed.

The Mu family prepared a total of four carriages for this trip, one containing gifts and items needed on the road, two were for the master's family, and the last one was for the maids and mothers who accompanied the house.

There were three people on this trip, twelve people on the mother-in-law's side, two grandmothers, ten maids from Jingheyuan, and first- and second-class maids.

"Fenghua, you follow your mother in a car, Qibao, you sit in front with the coachman, your injury is just right, just take the smaller carriage with the two maids you brought first, it should be no problem."

"Thank you mother-in-law for your concern, it's good." Shen Zhuru responded with a smile, watching her mother-in-law grab Mu Fenghua's wrist and get into the carriage, and Yicui also got into the carriage together.
