Chapter Seventy-Four: Into the Garden
Like most girls, Mu Hui is still looking forward to this chrysanthemum feast. The last time I went was just a child, and now she has long passed the age of the past, and she will definitely see a different scenery when she goes again.
She sat on the delicate son who was heading towards Qishou Mountain, looking at the flowing scenery outside, and her heart was full of feelings. In the past, she always stood on the side of the road and watched the eldest lady's delicate son pass by her, and she never thought that one day she would become the eldest lady.
She knows very well the road they are taking now, because she used to walk up the mountain with a folding fan with Liu Dandan and Liu Chunyan on their backs. In order to make more money, they would get up before dawn and rush here, because if they went late, the good stalls would be occupied by others.
She gently lifted the curtain on Jiaozi, looking at the crowd coming and going, she was familiar with the environment, and suddenly there was a shouting voice in her ears: "Maple leaf folding fan, Qishou Mountain's characteristic folding fan!" β¦β¦β
Mu Hui's heart was sour, and she followed the voice to see a young man in a gray cloth shirt standing there selling folding fans. She didn't expect anyone else to make a maple leaf folding fan. This is their best folding fan in the past, as long as they come out of the stall, the maple leaf folding fan on other stalls will not be sold.
Things are people, and in addition to sourness, there is also a hatred in her heart. Xiao Ju, who was walking beside Jiaozi, saw that Mu Hui had been lifting the curtain and immediately reminded in a low voice: "Miss, put down your curtain quickly, it's always bad for so many passers-by to be seen." β
Mu Hui smiled helplessly and put down the curtain, but the sourness in her heart became more and more bitter. After a while, Jiaozi slowly stopped, Xiao Ju poked her head in and said: "Miss, the front is Fengyuan, the princess's carriage is in front, we will not be able to enter later, you wait for a while, I will support you when Madame is delicate." β
Mu Hui nodded. Not much to say.
The gate of the maple orchard has been changed, and new maple trees have been planted on both sides of the gate. The sapling looked small, but the few branches on the tree were covered with red maple leaves, which looked like a flowering tree.
The third princess walked down with a smile, she blocked the sun with her hand, and her white and red face seemed to be dripping with a slight smile. Although it was late autumn, she was still wearing a light gauze skirt. The white neckline is covered with a touch of purple threaded needle embroidery, revealing nobility, and he walked in with a light step.
"The third sister is willing to appreciate her face, your second brother is really big-faced!" The second prince wore a sky-blue robe, and the belt was embroidered with a cloud dragon pattern that only the prince was qualified to use. The deep blue gem on the belt sparkled.
"The second brother invited, how could you not come. How's it going, it's almost busy, right? Do you want me to help? β
The three princesses love to join in the fun, and the people in the entire capital know it. If a big family has a happy event, she will definitely be there, and in the end, the protagonist of the wedding day has changed from the bride and groom to the famous three princesses.
"I don't dare to work on you! I have already made people prepare your favorite snacks early, you hurry up and eat them, and the taste will change when the wind cools after a while. β
The third princess heard that the second brother had specially prepared snacks for her, and immediately said, "The second brother still loves me, so I'll go in first if you're busy." β
The second prince looked at the lounge prepared for Xian Yu's family and turned to leave. As soon as he turned around, he met the Hu family with the young master and young lady of Nanrong Mansion coming in.
"The Hu clan of Nanrong Mansion has seen the second prince!"
The second prince smiled and said, "Madame doesn't have to be polite, please inside." β
He looked at the guests of Nanrong Mansion and saw Nanrong Muhui at a glance when he walked inside. He had an impression of this girl, as if his third sister had thought she was a thief before. Then the matter went down.
Just the day before yesterday, he heard the queen mother mention Nanrong Mansion and said that the daughter who had been lost before had been found again. If calculated according to age, it should be the eldest daughter of the Nanrong family. When the words "eldest daughter" appeared in his mind, he was stunned.
Isn't this Xian Yurui going to marry the eldest daughter? The Nanrong Muhan he hated just happened not to marry. After thinking about it, he also understood that although Xian Yurui didn't want to marry Nanrong Muhan, he had to marry.
Because Nanrong Muhan is the eldest daughter of the Hu family, and the Hu family is the daughter of the Taishi. The power of the Taishi in the court should not be underestimated. If he offends the Grand Master, then he will be unlucky. No one in the court knows that the two of them are like brothers.
When he was thinking about these questions, Nanrong Muhui had already left. He looked back twice, smiled helplessly, the woman was really unusual, standing in the crowd, he saw at a glance that there were no other women in her eyes. There are probably not many such postures in the capital.
She answered his questions so wittily and performed a puppet show, which he still remembers vividly. It is really rare for such a smart girl to be seen, not to mention that now that she has passed the age of marriage, she must be more agile in thinking. Today's game session is going to be exciting.
"What do you think? What's the hair? β
A creamy white robe with a cross-neckline, embroidered with simple yellow moire at the cuffs. A mighty tiger is embroidered on the belt, and a round carved white jade pendant hangs underneath. The white jade crown of his hair was pulled up in a high bun, making his whole person look more energetic.
"Looking for you? Where did you run, but you couldn't find your people. β
Xian Yurui laughed twice and said: "I'll go and decorate, if I am idle and busy, won't it become you?" Okay, you rest, I'll go over there and see if there's anything missing in the other places. β
The second prince pulled him aside and asked softly, "The eldest daughter of the Nanrong family has been replaced by another person, do you know about this?" β
Xian Yurui chuckled helplessly, shook his head and said, "I know, I'm afraid that the entire capital knows about this." And the eldest daughter also gave me a lotus pond moonlight at the cherry blossom shop! Hahaha"
The second prince's face was a little ugly, and his voice became serious and said, "Xian Yurui! Are you crazy? Do you know that your fiancΓ©e is Nanrong Muhan? If this matter is known to the Grand Master, you and I will be unlucky! β
Xian Yurui scratched her head with a smile and said, "She didn't mean anything to me, she just thought it was an ordinary snack." Later, we found two subordinates to go out and admit it, so we wouldn't be stupid enough to come forward to solve this problem! Rest assured. β
The second prince breathed a sigh of relief, he thought about it for a while, and asked with a little interest: "She is still a smart person, and she is outstanding in appearance, she is not interesting to you, are you interesting to her?" β
Xian Yurui shook his head helplessly and said, "When did Your Highness become so gossipy?" Is there anything else going on that I don't know about? β
When the second prince heard that he was starting to be sloppy, he didn't continue to ask, so he shook his head helplessly and said, "Okay, I can't do you if you talk to you." Let's go, the distinguished guests are all in the eighth or ninth year, and it's time for us to show up. β
