Chapter Seventy-Four: Familiarity
After a while, he turned to look at the few people standing stiffly behind him, and said a series of words that Mu Zhiling didn't understand.
He said with a frown on his face.
Mu Zhiling's heart sank to the bottom.
Steward Zhao bowed his body and said, "It's not that I'm deaf." β
He said to Mu Zhiling, who was slightly stiff: "Fifth Miss, what did you tell him?" Why did the old slave ignore it for so long a day, and he was so excited when you said a word. β
Mu Zhiling only said, "Uncle Zhao, you take them in to rest first." β
Steward Zhao was confused, but he had to do it.
stepped forward to continue the theory with those people, and those people wanted to follow behind Mu Zhiling, but Steward Zhao hurriedly stopped them.
Later, Mu Zongze returned to Jingxuan Pavilion and told Xiao Yuning about the eldest sister's fiancΓ©.
"What does that man do, what is his name, and what does he look like?" Xiao Yuning asked with interest.
Mu Zongze sat down and put his arm around her shoulder, and couldn't help laughing: "It's not our Ling'er's husband, why are you so concerned?" β
Xiao Yuning said: "Sister Lan is also a member of the Mu family, can I care about it?" β
Although he said this, Xiao Yuning remembered what Mu Zhiling said when she went to Jingxuan Pavilion in the morning.
Ling'er said that the future brother-in-law was very weird.
Mu Zongze took her in his arms and said with a smile: "Yes, of course, whatever you want to do." β
Xiao Yuning pushed him away a little, and said angrily: "Young poor mouth, can you tell me what happened to that person?" The more detailed the better. β
Mu Zongze smiled and said, "That person's surname is Zhen Mingmu, a native of Zhenzhou, and his ancestral home is Shangjing. It is said that his great-grandfather was an official in Kyoto, and then moved to Zhenzhou due to a family change, and then did some business, which has been passed down from generation to generation. And he was also admitted to the Jinshi two years ago, and he is quite knowledgeable. β
"In more detail, how does he look?" Xiao Yuning asked eagerly.
But I didn't notice that someone's face had changed and changed.
Xiao Yuning shrank in his arms, and didn't hear Mu Zongze speak, so he urged: "You should talk about it." β
Mu Zongze said with a stiff face: "Thick eyebrows and big eyes, slightly higher cheekbones, can be regarded as handsome, strong and healthy." I almost didn't understand what I was saying. But don't you think you're asking too much, ma'am? β
Xiao Yuning nodded thoughtfully and said, "It's really a little weird. β
Facing Mu Zongze's complaining eyes, Xiao Yuning instantly understood, and said, "What are you talking nonsense, I just think this Zhen Mu is a little weird." Isn't it because I can't even know that? β
Mu Zongze hugged her tighter and coaxed softly: "I'm joking with you for my husband, don't be angry, madam." β
But the tone is strange.
Today, as soon as he entered the door, his whole person seemed restless, and his whole soul was not guarded.
"Relax, I'm about to run out of breath." Xiao Yuning wanted to push Mu Zongze away, but he buried his head in her neck and said, "He's coming back." β
Xiao Yuning didn't understand his words, and stopped struggling, "Who?" β
Mu Zongze didn't speak, just hugged her in his arms.
In the evening, Mu Zhiling heard that Mu Zhilan and Zhen Mu were in the back garden, so she looked for Mu Zhixuan and went to the back garden.
Mu Zhiling pulled Mu Zhixuan all the way forward, and Mu Zhixuan asked inexplicably, "Fifth sister, where are you going to take me?" β
Mu Zhiling said, "Sister Xuan, did you hear that there was a distinguished guest in the house today?" β
Mu Zhixuan blinked, nodded and said, "I only knew when I heard the maids say that I have to take care of my mother now, so I know a lot of things later." What's the matter, fifth sister, is something wrong? β
Mu Zhiling shook her head and said with a wicked smile: "No, but Sister Xuan, don't you want to see what the future eldest brother-in-law looks like?" β
Mu Zhixuan said with interest: "I don't want to know, that's the future husband of the eldest sister, what does it have to do with us?" I heard that the man was from Zhenzhou, which is far away from Kyoto. If the eldest sister marries in the future, I am afraid that we will not see each other for ten or eight years, and when we meet, we probably won't recognize each other. β
Mu Zhiling let go of her hand and said, "If Sister Xuan doesn't want to go, then I'll go by myself." I'm curious about my future brother-in-law. β
She originally wanted Mu Zhixuan to accompany her, so that when she bumped into Zhen Mu and Mu Zhilan like this, this would avoid the embarrassment of the scene.
As soon as Mu Zhiling's words fell, Mu Zhixuan stretched out her hand to grab Mu Zhiling as if she had thought of something, and said, "I'll just go with you." β
The two walked towards the backyard, and Mu Zhixuan wilted all the way.
really bumped into Mu Zhilan in the backyard, but did not see Zhen Mu.
Mu Zhilan saw Mu Zhiling and Mu Zhixuan, and said, "Third sister, fifth sister." β
"Good evening eldest sister, Imperial Doctor Zhang said that it is good for the body to walk more after dinner, so I pulled the third sister out, but I didn't expect the eldest sister to be there. Eldest sister, did you also come to this back garden after listening to the construction of Imperial Doctor Zhang? β
Mu Zhiling smashed her mouth and said.
Mu Zhixuan's eyes on the side moved slightly, but she only reacted for a moment, and nodded with a smile.
Mu Zhilan had a gentle and shallow smile on her face, but she was a little crimson for a moment, and said a little differently: "I'm just idle and bored, just come out for a walk." β
"Then sister, let's go together." Mu Zhiling took Mu Zhilan's slender hand and said in a friendly manner.
Mu Zhilan shook her head a little unnaturally, and said, "I've also been shopping for a long time, I'm a little tired, and I want to go back to rest." β
Mu Zhilan turned around sharply.
Mu Zhiling and Mu Zhixuan did not follow.
Looking around, Zhen Mu was not found, and Mu Zhiling took Mu Zhixuan's hand a little lost.
When the two were about to walk back, they heard someone behind them: "Dry (just) just the sea (still) is tired of this, why don't you stick (see)." β
The man spoke a very unspoken Kyoto dialect.
Apparently Zhen Mu.
Mu Zhiling turned her head sharply, only to see a tall man muttering to herself.
"Ancient (girl) girls, have you seen ......"
Before he could speak, Mu Zhiling and Mu Zhixuan fled and left.
Mu Zhixuan gasped heavily, and couldn't help but cancel Mu Zhiling and said, "Fifth sister, what are you running?" Didn't you just say you wanted to see what he was like? Why did you see it now, and why did you run away in a hurry like a ghost? β
Mu Zhiling was shocked when she heard this.
That's right, what did she run away from?
But for some reason, she saw that face with some inexplicable panic.
Such a familiar face, she must have seen it.
But why can't she remember?
It was very strange to hear him speak.
Thinking of the sedan chair men before, Mu Zhiling was sure that Zhen Mu was most likely not from the Great Jin.
Then she wouldn't have seen him, would she? R1152
