Chapter 41: The Future Daughter-in-law
It's winter in a blink of an eye, and since Mu Zexi left Chu Chang that day, Chu Chang hasn't seen him for a long time. I heard that the New Year is approaching, and there are many things to deal with in the palace and the court, and they are busy until late at night every day.
I also heard that Rong's leg was almost healed, but he just said that he couldn't hurt it anymore, otherwise it would be more troublesome to recuperate.
"Miss, this is the cloth sent from the palace, and the prince also sent a few new clothes when he came back yesterday, this is the fox fur cloak sent by the minister, but it is warm. Well, there's also the snow cream that Gongzi Xie brought from Jiangyinβ"
Not to mention, it's good at the end of the year, everyone hurts themselves, and there are more gifts to give. Chu Yan was wrapped in the quilt, and Yu'er moved the small case table to the bed for her, so that she could write the script. This is a big job to make money, and it can't be delayed.
"Miss, you really don't come down to the event? It's not a problem for you to lie down all day. β
Yu'er looked at Chu Yan with a worried face, she had seen someone who was afraid of cold, but she had never seen someone who was afraid of being like this. There were a lot of charcoal fires in the house, and she felt panicked by the heat, and Chu Yan was afraid of the cold, but she was really not afraid of roasting herself!!!
"No, it's cold."
"Lord Wang?"
Suddenly, Yu'er called out in surprise, and was about to rush over to groom Chu Yan, but before Chu Chang could react, he saw Mu Zexi coming in, and there was still snow on his body, and it seemed that he had come back from outside.
"Fish, don't comb it, this person is here."
Chu Changnunu mouthed, signaling to the fish, everyone has come in, are you late for dressing?
Mu Zexi hooked the corners of his lips, and seemed to smile a little, "Go and bring the princess's clothes, thicker." β
The fish jumped for joy, and then went out like the wind.
Chu Yan shuddered and sniffed, this girl is really moving like the wind!!
"You haven't gotten out of bed?"
Mu Zexi asked, the heat in the room washed away the chill on his body, and he didn't know how Chu Yan could still lie down in such a hot environment.
Chu Yan nodded, I just haven't gotten out of bed, what's wrong?
"That's it, I went to the Xu University Scholar's Mansion today, and I heard that the plum blossoms in the Xu Mansion are very beautiful, and I will take you to appreciate it by the way."
Mu Zexi is going to take himself out? Chu Yan was clever, and immediately lay down the corpse, rolling up the quilt: "I won't go, I won't go out, it's so cold." β
Mu Zexi's eyes were dyed with a smile, such a Chu Yan, delicate and cute, so she deliberately raised her voice, "Are you sure you won't go?" β
"Yes. Are you sure. β
Chu Yan hid in the quilt and snorted, so she didn't go, on such a cold day, everyone who went out was a fool!
"Today, some of the students of Guozijian gathered in the Xu Mansionβ"
"Really? I'll go! β
Chu Yan immediately stopped getting cold, turned over and got up, and immediately sneezed. Forgive her for being so bohemian and loving a beautiful man!! However, it was a group of small fresh meat! - No matter how good-looking Mu Zexi is, it is also a person, feasting his eyes on this kind of thing, the more the merrier.
Fortunately, the fish came quickly, and soon came over with a thick pile of clothes, which saved Chu Yan from the suffering.
Chu Yan looked at the pile of clothes in a daze, and asked, "This is what you want to wear today?" β
The fish nodded solemnly.
"Wear so much? Wrap me in rice dumplings? β
The zongzi in his hand hasn't been dismantled yet, and now he has to wrap it into a zongzi? How can you be so imageless when you see a beautiful man??
"Let's discuss, can we wear less?"
Chu Yan looked at the fish flatteringly, this girl, she is honest, the thicker the clothes are thicker This Nima told me that this quilt-like clothes are worn by people???
Mu Zexi's face darkened, and he said coldly: "Nonsense! It snowed heavily yesterday, and it was still cold outside, how could you be so careless about your body!! β
Chu Yan pursed her mouth, not daring to compete with Mu Zexi, so she had to make a grievance, silently turned around, and asked Yu'er to wait for her to change her clothes.
Unexpectedly, those clothes looked like zongzi, but they were not bad, Mu Zexi's blue dark pattern brocade robe, and a gray cloak on the outside. Chu Yan's clothes are also blue, water blue, and the cuffs are embroidered with delicate patterns, which looks very luxurious.
In the process of grooming Chu Yan, Mu Zexi waited but was not annoyed, but he took the book out of nowhere to read it.
"Let's go."
Chu Yan walked to Mu Zexi's side, and she couldn't help but be happy.
Mu Zexi raised his eyes, and the shock in his eyes flashed, such a Chu Yan is indeed very beautiful. The phoenix eyes and red lips, and a touch of silver pear blossom makeup on the forehead set off Chu Yan's delicate and delicate atmosphere.
"Go and get the princess's cloak."
Yu'er ran away again, and in a blink of an eye, she came out with a silver cloak that matched Mu Zexi, and Chu Yan was about to take it, but who knew that Yu'er's hand turned and handed it to Mu Zexi.
ββ
Mu Zexi didn't hesitate, and directly took the cloak and tied it to Chu Yan. The warm breath sprayed on Chu Yan's face, and the breath of the man who suddenly approached made Chu Yan a little unaccustomed for a while, and her face suddenly became hot.
"Well, do you want to call your daddy girl?"
Chu Yan thought about it and couldn't help asking.
Mu Zexi's hand paused, then quickly knotted her, turned around and left.
Yes? This Nima is gone?
"Not yet!"
Seeing that Chu Yan didn't follow, Mu Zexi suddenly turned around angrily and reprimanded.
Chu Yan held back the breath in her heart and followed.
Okay, okay, your uncle, today you take me out to meet a beautiful man, you are an uncle!!
Who knows, Chu Yan is such a crow's mouth, when she walked to the door, she saw Rong Qian's clothes being helped over, and when she saw Mu Zexi, her face couldn't help but show joy.
"Lord Wang."
Rong Qianfu blessed his body, and the white dress was about to melt together with the snow. The clothes are also white, and the face is also white, if it weren't for the black eyes and hair, Chu Yan would have thought that she had hit a ghost.
Mu Zexi frowned slightly and lowered his voice: "It's cold outside, why did you come out?" β
"Qian'er heard that the prince was back, so she thought about coming to see it. Lord Wang, are you going out? β
The beauty's voice is gentle, and it is really indescribably charming.
Mu Zexi nodded, pursed his lips, and didn't speak.
"Qian'er hasn't seen the prince for many days, is the prince free today? Qian'er's leg is healed, and she wants to cook some favorite things for the prince herself. β
Chu Yan couldn't help smacking her tongue, sure enough, Rong Qian is a master, no wonder others say that grabbing a man's stomach almost captures a man's heart.
Mu Zexi nodded lightly and said casually: "It depends on the situation, it is cold in winter, let the next person do these things." β
"Yes, Qian'er knows. Then, the prince will go early and return early. β
After Rong Qian finished speaking, Mu Zexi bowed his head and turned to leave.
Chu Yan followed in a hurry, and naturally she didn't see the vicious gaze behind her.
Mu Zexi's carriage and Shen Jinyi's carriage arrived almost at the same time.
"Six princes, six princesses."
Shen Jinyi went straight over and saluted the two, and then went in with Mu Zexi.
The hall inside the house is already lively, and many students are already waiting in the hall.
Chu Yan was a woman, so she only had time to take a look at those people, and before she could see clearly what the characteristics of those beautiful men were, she heard Scholar Xu say: "Princess Xu is bored, why don't you let the little girl Yanyu accompany the princess to the plum garden to enjoy the plum blossoms?" β
"It's okay, so, I'm tired of Miss Xu."
Mu Zexi smiled lightly and nodded, making a decision for Chu Yan.
Chu Yan was angry and glared at Mu Zexi angrily, you told me that the students of Guozijian are here, I just came, and you want to take me away? What do you mean?
"This kind of occasion is really not suitable for women to be present, you go, be careful not to catch the cold."
Mu Zexi pressed against Chu Yan's ear and said in a voice that only two people could hear. Chu Yan knows that if you don't give face to a man outside, he will make you have a bad life when you go back. So Chu Yan didn't intend to be angry, pretended to be very sensible and well-behaved, smiled sweetly, and said in a disgusting voice that could get her ancestors up from the soil and spit out a few times: "Yes, the concubine knows." β
Then, Mu Zexi's face was extremely exciting, and the corners of his mouth were twitching-
"Sixth princess, please come with Yanyu."
I don't know when a woman came behind her, Chu Yan turned her head, and was suddenly shocked, ah, such a fairy woman? The smell of books all over his body makes sense at a glance.
Seeing Chu Yan staring at herself, Xu Yanyu smiled, "The plum blossoms in the plum garden are blooming just right today, Yanyu will take you over to enjoy the plum blossoms first, the prince and the adults, the sons can also come over to enjoy it together when they are tired." β
Chu Yan nodded, well, this girl has a future, and she can only choose her husband when she has gathered all the people.
Chu Yan didn't say much, and followed Xu Yanyu away. Twists and turns, all kinds of cloisters, all kinds of pavilions and pavilions, the decoration is very tasteful.
Xu Yanyu looked like a person with a bookish atmosphere, but he was very lively, and he was not afraid of Chu Yan, chatting with Chu Yan along the way. Soon we arrived at the Plum Garden.
A faint fragrance floated in, and Chu Yan couldn't help but admire, it was really a good place.
"There are a total of 12 varieties of plum blossoms in this plum garden, and my mother loves plums, so my father planted plum blossoms in this yard for my mother. Does the princess like plum blossoms? β
Xu Yanyu introduced Chu Yan to Chu Yan and led Chu Yan to a wing room in the Plum Garden. The window of this wing room is facing the plum blossoms, and it is also leeward, and incense is lit inside. There are all kinds of food on the table.
"Me? Luckily, I like roses. β
"Oh? Speaking of which, the princess is Lord Shen's cousin, and Lord Shen likes Mei very much.
"Radish and cabbage, each has his own love."
Chu Yan replied. I really don't have much interest in plum blossom viewing. After all, she doesn't pretend to be forced, she only knows that flowers are still roses, with thorns, if you dare to pick me, I dare to tie you into a hedgehog. In fact, Chu Yan can't say that she likes flowers very much, but in her life, the last flower that someone gave her was roses. It was also sent by the person who ended her in the end.
"The princess is even more interesting than rumored."
Xu Yanyu pursed her lips and smiled, looking like a lady in her clothes. In fact, such a woman looks very comfortable, and her smile is a scene.
"Rumors?"
"yes, rumors. However, Lord Shen often praises the princess, Yan Yu feels that when she sees her today, the princess is indeed as much as Lord Shen said. β
Chu Chang's reputation is not good, she knows it. She didn't think about changing it. It's just that Xu Yanyu really doesn't seem to be flattering her.
"You know my cousin well?"
"A couple of faces. My father had a good relationship with Lord Shen, and Lord Shen often came to the house, and I met him a few times. β
Obediently, this shy appearance, Chu Yan has practiced many times and has not practiced it. Isn't this typical emotion?
Could it be that my cousin, a nerd, couldn't recruit peach blossoms?
In this way, let's analyze Shen Jinyi's peach blossoms, it is said that the youngest of the three heroes in the capital is Shen Jinyi, and he is quite handsome, so the situation should be very good. But Shen Jinyi has not married yet, and there are few women around her, Chu Yan is strange, none of your rich son's bed-warming maids and personal maids can climb into his bed? So useless?? If you don't get the moon before you get the water, and let the moon hang high on the branches?
Moreover, Shen Jinyi has a lot of room for development, and now the emperor has a lot of use for Shen Jinyi, and his relationship with Mu Zexi seems to be not bad, so if Mu Zexi becomes the emperor in the future, it will definitely not be too bad for him.
In the end, Nima, a nerd man and woman who can't accept kisses, and looks like a good husband, it's not difficult to find a daughter-in-law to recruit a peach blossom!!
So speaking of which, Xu Yanyu, the fairy daughter, likes Shen Jinyi, and she is also a peach blossom inserted in jade, which is a good match.
"Sister, are you the sixth princess?"
The milky sister successfully brought Chu Chang's attention back, Chu Yan turned her head and saw a five or six-year-old girl, followed by a few boys, shouting to herself in a milky voice.
"Yes, babyβ"
Chu Yan was born with no resistance to cute things, just like she was born with no resistance to beautiful men.
The little girl's face was flushed, and she tugged at the corner of Chu Yan's clothes, "Are you the beauty who robbed my future father-in-law?" β
What is the future? Could it be Mu Zexi? , this is a bit exciting, Mu Zexi, you are a beast, you don't even let go of children.
"Tong Yu! Who taught you that? β
Xu Yanyu was taken aback, looked at the little girl, and then looked at Chu Yan apologetically, "My sister is not sensible, don't blame my mother." β
Chu Yan smiled, how could she be more serious with a girl? This girl is still drinking milk at a glance, she is a big girl, how can she follow the little girl to see it?
"It's okay - you like the Sixth Prince?"
The little girl nodded and said seriously: "Daddy said that the sixth prince is talented, handsome, temperamental, and a good man." β
- Scholar Xu, your daughter is so young, you just tell her this, does your daughter-in-law know? Didn't you say you can't fall in love? How old is this kid!!!
"Your father lied to you, I don't believe you go out to see, the sixth prince, his face is paralyzed, cold, and he feels uncomfortable when he looks at it."
"It's okay, Daddy said that the sixth prince will have a son, and Tong Yu will train his son to be a gentle man in advance in the future."
I'm rubbing, that's a bit far away, isn't it?
This is long-term enough, and it is all focused on Mu Zexi's son.
It's just, little girl, what are you staring at my belly for? What to do!!! Mu Zexi's son will not come out of my belly again!!
"Princess Niangniang, if I were to be your daughter-in-law, I would definitely honor you well, give you a back massage every day, and tell you funny jokes, you will like me, right?"
Damn, can I say I don't like it? It's not right to treat young children like that. Chu Yan's heart was broken, he was there, this little girl was too unrestrained, she scared the baby to death.
"Yes, I like it, as long as you cuckold my son, then you have to like it."
Thinking about it, Chu Yan couldn't help but feel empty-hearted, and what she was thinking about seemed to be cuckolding Mu Zexi, and asking the queen mother if she knew about it.
"Princess Niangniang, can Tong Yu accompany you to play in the snow outside?"
The little child looked at you pitifully, Chu Yan directly disarmed her armor and surrendered, this girl will definitely be a beauty when she grows up.
"Let's go. Yanyu, together? β
Chu Yan got up and picked up the little girl, and didn't forget to call Xu Yanyu.
I thought that a lady like Xu Yanyu should not go, but she didn't expect that it was unexpected, Xu Yanyu didn't twist, and went out directly with Chu Yan.
There was some wind outside, but I forgot about the cold while playing in the snow, and the whole plum garden was full of laughter.
Not far away, a man in a blue brocade robe stood under the plum tree, looking at Chu Yan with a smile like a flower, his heart was warm, and his eyes were glued to her and he didn't move.
"Ouch!!"
Suddenly, Chu Yan's feet slipped and she fell to the ground.
"Princess Niangniang!! Are you alright? β
Before Xu Yanyu could help Chu Yan up, he saw Mu Zexi, who was dressed in blue, hurriedly come over and helped Chu Yan up, and then said coldly: "Don't jump around if you're clumsy!" It's so cold, what are you doing out here? β
Chu Yan was in a good mood, and she didn't bother to care what Mu Zexi said, so she directly pulled Xu Tongyu in front of Mu Zexi, "Hey, this girl has taken a fancy to you or your son." β
Mu Zexi's face sank, looked at Chu Yan for a while, and suddenly became ambiguous: "For the happiness of this girl, the princess still hurried to work hard with this Wang Nu, maybe she can make a good marriage." β
I rub !!! Marry your sister!!!
Chu Yan almost didn't ease up in one breath, glared at Mu Zexi angrily, and said coldly: "Stinky and shameless." β
ββ
Suddenly everyone present was petrified, except for two parties.
Mu Zexiquan thought that Chu Yan was praising himself, and he always had a faint smile on his face, and then pulled Chu Yan up and said, "It's not early, go back." β
"No, I haven't had enough!"
How boring it is to go back, with such a cute child here, I don't know how much more laughter and laughter. Chu Yan even thought evilly, if only Mu Zexi had a cute son or daughter to play with, but unfortunately, Mu Zexi's son and daughter didn't know where to line up.
Mu Zexi raised his eyebrows: "It's not cold?" β
He remembered that Chu Yan, who was nested in bed today, was reluctant to leave the bed. Will you not want to go back?
Chu Yan shook her head, "It's not cold." β
"If it's not cold, I have to go back."
Who knew that Mu Zexi came to such a sentence and directly dragged Chu Yan away.
