Chapter Thirty-Nine: Pity the hearts of parents in the world
"Boss, do you have anything to do next?" Xie Zhan, who fought hard for favor and finally failed, resigned himself to eating the sparse eggs in the white porcelain bowl.
This sentence entered Xin Muyuan's heart, and he grinned happily and said, "No, from today onwards, until the end of the third level, it will be fine." The matter of Liying Shengxiang has been dealt with, and when the emperor's concubine selection passes, I can live a stable life for a while. ”
As soon as the words fell, I saw Steward Zhang hurrying over with breakfast cakes, his smiling face instantly became gloomy, and he lowered his head and silently bit the steamed bun in his hand.
"Boss, someone from the Prime Minister's Mansion has arrived." After Steward Zhang finished reporting, he began to eat his own breakfast on the spot.
I came to work halfway through the meal, and I didn't eat enough yesterday, and now my stomach is grunting with hunger. Xin Muyuan seems to have long been accustomed to Steward Zhang's appearance, he eats for him, and asked the maid who was waiting next to him to clip a few pieces of meat for him, don't be too dry, but he didn't ask about the affairs of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Steward Zhang unceremoniously rolled a few pieces of beef into his mouth and asked, "Boss, don't you go out and take a look?" ”
"If you don't go, you can go and tell them that Xin Muyuan hasn't gotten up yet."
"Isn't this obviously offending people?"
"Then you tell them that Xin Muyuan went to Bundi last night and hasn't come back this morning."
Steward Zhang nodded and said, "This is reliable." ”
"Ahem, cough, cough ......" Xie Zhan, who was eating, coughed violently, looked at Xin Muyuan in shock, and asked sourly, "Why, you often go to Bundi on weekdays?" ”
Xin Muyuan looked at him: "Does it have anything to do with you?" ”
Xie Zhan pursed his lips, grabbed his chopsticks in annoyance and bullied the dishes in the bowl, and replied sullenly: "It's okay." ”
He was extremely annoyed that he hadn't found out that Xin Muyuan was Xin Ye earlier, and personally broke off the relationship between himself and Xin Ye.
Not long after Steward Zhang left, he came back with a sad face, and said, "It's useless, boss, I have said all kinds of reasons, but the prime minister and the prime minister's wife are still standing at the door, saying that no matter how long you have to wait here, you must wait until you come back!" Now our shop is about to open, but what can we do? ”
Xin Muyuan held his forehead, had a headache, and said, "Okay, Lao Zhang, I know, you let them go and wait in the living room." ”
"Huh!" Lao Zhang nodded and walked away in small steps.
Xin Muyuan glanced at Mu Yi before getting up, and after making sure that he was full, he got up and walked unhurriedly to the living room. Xie Zhan was still sitting in place waiting for her to call herself, but everyone had already stepped two meters away, and they didn't even look back.
Xie Zhan was annoyed, slapped his chopsticks on the table with a "snap", and walked towards his room. Just walking, the road was crooked to Xin Muyuan's fart. strand back.
The wind in the morning was very cold, Xin Muyuan didn't take the windbreaker handed over by Mu Yi, blew in the cold wind for a while, took a deep breath, laughed and entered the living room, and said loudly: "Yo, your guests are here, you have missed the welcome, forgive your sins, forgive your sins!" ”
Before you see him, you hear his voice first.
Mrs. Luo gazed and saw a white and slender hand opening the heavy red cotton curtain, and a woman wearing a silk dress entered, with a blooming peony embroidered with gold thread on the skirt, three golden tassels on her head, a nightingale crying the moon, and a golden bell hanging on her wrist, which set off her wrist more slender and fair.
The eyebrows are like distant daisies, the eyes are like autumn water, and a smile is alluring.
Mrs. Lowe's mind was a little heavier. Such a woman stays by the emperor's side, and the relationship is so close, even if her Qin'er marries, I am afraid that there will be no less suffering.
She gently pulled the sleeve of Prime Minister Lalo, and said in a low voice: "Husband, it's better for Qin'er to join the palace, forget it." ”
Prime Minister Luo looked at her puzzled and asked, "Why?" "When they came out, they were fine, and the two agreed that no matter what the difficulties and dangers, they must ask for the answers to the test questions for their Qin'er. Why did he retreat in his heart when he first saw Boss Xin?
Mrs. Luo was embarrassed to say that she was amazed by Xin Muyuan, and her beautiful eyes looked at Xin Muyuan worriedly, but she didn't speak. The prime minister waited for a while and didn't wait for an answer, thinking that Mrs. Luo was having hysteria, so he ignored it, and still wondered how to buy this woman who regarded money as her life but didn't want money now.
"It's because we didn't inform in advance, and Boss Xin doesn't have to blame himself." Prime Minister Luo's tone was polite, but his face was a serious and iron-blue look, which was really scary.
Xin Muyuan pretended not to know the purpose of the two of them, looked at them, and then looked at the maids around him, and cautiously sat in the first position in the lower left, and said: "Prime Minister, our Liying Shengxiang has always been a business rule, and we have never done anything against the way of heaven. Is there any misunderstanding here? ”
Prime Minister Luo looked at her in confusion and said, "The old man is not here for business, but for ......."
"Could it be that the prime minister's family has a happy event approaching, and he wants to come to me for a wedding banquet?" Xin Muyuan's interest suddenly rose, and he said happily, "We have 288 packages, 388 packages, 688 packages and more advanced 1288 packages here, which package do you want to know?" I can ask Muyi to give you a list of plans...... Forget it, I'll just ask Mu Yi to bring the list over, you pick it on the spot, look at it on the spot, how about it? ”
Mrs. Luo was successfully led astray by Xin Muyuan, stopped Xin Muyuan, who was about to let Mu Yi take the note, and said angrily: "Why is it so expensive?" The last time I came, it was only fifty taels of silver! How many times has it multiplied today? Boss Xin, you are an obvious ripper! ”
"Mrs. Luo, don't worry, listen to me slowly." Xin Muyuan made a gesture to ask the prime minister and his wife to change into a better type of tea, and dragged the chair in front of them.
As she approached, the cold air from the outside also rushed in, and Mrs. Luo frowned, leaned back, and kept a slight distance from Xin Muyuan.
Prime Minister Luo said: "Your words should wait until the next time we need to hold a banquet, and I won't go around in circles with you." This time, my wife and I are not here for official business, nor to understand your package here, but for the emperor's choice of concubine. ”
As soon as the words "the emperor chooses a concubine" came out, Xin Muyuan's enthusiasm dispersed. She leaned back in her chair and asked, "Prime Minister, aren't you playing with the people's daughter?" Choosing a concubine is the emperor's business, where can the people's daughters get together? You discuss this with me, isn't it ......?"
Xin Muyuan smiled "hehe", the meaning was very clear.
Prime Minister Luo also smiled, but no matter how you look at it, that smile feels infiltrating: "If you can't make up the relationship, why didn't the emperor choose anyone on the day he chose the concubine, but chose you?" Xin Muyuan, I know that you have the drawings for unlocking the Luban lock here, and I also know that even if you help me, the emperor will not trouble you. ”
