Chapter 87: The Identity of the County Lord
Hearing that the mansion was gradually becoming lively, Mu Xiwan put away his things with some unfinished thoughts, planning to be waited by Mei'er to wash up.
The old ancestor, on the other hand, drank the last sip of the wine in the pot and staggered into the house.
After a meal, the two sat at the round table in the room, Mei'er laid out the chopsticks for the two, and stood obediently on the side, that is, behind Mu Xiwan.
The boundary between the master and the subordinate is very clear and clear.
"I don't know what day it is, the dishes in the house are so good in the morning."
Mu Xiwan's white and slender hand held the chopsticks, the sun was as white as jade, the top hung with fine tassels, and then the middle was carved with a beautiful pattern, which was jade bamboo.
King Ping is very prestigious in the court, and he wants to come to this mansion to pay great attention to enjoyment.
Even the pair of chopsticks have to be made so exquisitely.
Mu Xiwan still remembered that when the master saw this chopsticks for the first time, he smiled and scolded a few words, what the Central Plains people are poor and exquisite, what or something, in short, it is not a good word.
Now it's also very handy.
The old ancestor listened to Mu Xiwan's words, but he only raised his eyebrows, "Although this dish looks good, it doesn't smell as good as the drunken immortal house's flower chicken." ”
Mu Xiwan once took him to the drunken immortal residence, and the ancestor really remembered the saliva called Hua Ji, and now that he wants to come, he is afraid that he wants to eat it again.
Smiled and added a few chopsticks and meat dishes to his bowl, Mu Xiwan said with a smile: "If it's okay today, I'll take you to the drunken immortal residence for a meal." ”
Only then did the old ancestor's eyes smile again, and he picked up the chopsticks with a smile and was about to eat.
Mu Xi saw that his face was a little better, so he picked up the dishes and chopsticks and wanted to eat them himself. Since the master lived in his yard, he took on the role of guiding her every morning.
He usually seems to be smiling and grinning, and he is very close to him, but when it comes to real kung fu, he is very strict, and he always trains her very strictly.
Therefore, the amount of food every morning is very large, and Mu Xi, who is already hungry with his chest and back, can no longer bear it at this time.
She set up the nearest dish and brought it to her mouth, but before she could eat it, she was knocked down with chopsticks.
Looking at the dishes that fell on the table, Mu Xiwan was a little confused.
But then she remembered something, she looked at the master with a thoughtful expression, and said in a low voice: "Poisonous? ”
Mei'er had been standing behind her, and when she heard this poisonous sound, she hurried up, her face was still a little nervous, "Toxic?" ”
"Whose hand did this dish pass through in the morning?"
Mu Xiwan asked.
"This ......" Mei'er looked a little embarrassed, but still grinned, "This dish has passed the eyes of many people from the kitchen in the morning, and I have sent someone to guard it early, and retrieved it all the way from there, and now, I am afraid that many people in the yard have also come into contact, if this is checked, I am afraid that it will be a little difficult." ”
Mu Xiwan naturally knows the difficulties involved.
Many of the people in his own yard were sent from various yards, but this poison can deceive himself, and I am afraid that it will come from a lot.
"In the future, you can only be responsible for our food." Mu Xiwan thought about it for a while, and added, "Only in this way can I rest assured." ”
Seeing that the panic on Mei'er's face had not faded, she still nodded firmly.
Mu Xiwan didn't say anything more, only took some of the dishes, took out some poison with special means, and left some carefully wrapped up as evidence.
"Got the master." Mu Xiwan slapped his hand on the master's shoulder with a smile, pointed outside and said, "I can't eat this meal, so please move to the Drunken Immortal Residence." ”
……
A few days later, inside the lobby of the Ping Wangfu.
Mu Xiwan hurried over, and saw that there were already many people standing in the house. She glanced lightly, and saw Princess Ping standing on one side, and not far behind her, stood that Qi Wanwan.
His gaze only swept slightly, and then fell on the visitor.
It was the eunuch in the palace.
It looks a little familiar, and I should have seen it a few times before.
"County Lord, this is an invitation from the palace, please continue."
It's just an invitation, and I have to bother the big eunuch in the palace to send it, how to look at it and feel strange.
But she walked over obediently and took the invitation in her hand.
As soon as she opened it, it was the word county lord who fell on the top, and she thought of what the eunuch had just called her, so she made things clear in an instant.
The first few times I also participated in the large and small banquets and hunting in the palace, but they were all in the name of Pingwangfu and participated as the righteous daughter of Qi Ke's sister-in-law Qi Zhen.
When it was mentioned for too long, she had to forget that she still had the identity of this county lord.
smiled, handed the invitation to Mei'er behind him, and then leaned up again, took the silver bag that Mei'er had just stuffed into her from his cuff, and skillfully stuffed it into the eunuch's sleeve, and his mouth didn't stop, "This invitation, I have to bother my father-in-law to run in person, it's really hard work." ”
The father-in-law accepted the silver quietly, and said with a smile: "It's not hard, it's not hard, it's just entrusted by someone." Since it was delivered, the miscellaneous family has to go back to resume their lives, so they will leave. ”
As soon as she heard the farewell, Princess Naping stepped forward with a smile and sent her father-in-law away with Mu Xiwan.
Seeing that her father-in-law sat in the sedan chair and gradually went away, Mu Xiwan always looked at it with a smile, and when the people were far away, she turned around and wanted to take Mei'er back to her small courtyard.
But I heard Princess Ping snort coldly, "In the end, I have the reputation of a county lord, and I can't see this old woman when I see it." ”
This word is obviously provocative, as soon as they heard this, the subordinates looked at Mu Xiwan's eyes and couldn't help but look at it, this Mu Xiwan is the county lord's status is good, but the mansion has never treated her badly, but she didn't ask for courtesy when she met, she really can't say it.
"Madame, what are you talking about?" Mu Xiwan approached with a smile and held her affectionately with one hand, "Madame is good for the evening, how can I not see Madame." ”
She swept her eyes, and when she saw Qi Wanwan, she immediately stepped forward gently, quietly carried Princess Ping in the other direction, and said in her mouth: "Madame, don't you forget, we have to go out in a while, and it's not too early to see the sky now." ”
She was reminding her to leave.
Princess Ping seemed to have something really going on at this time, and she only glanced at Mu Xiwan, and was taken away by Qi Wanwan. Mu Xiwan squinted her eyes and saw that the two were very close.
That Qi Wanwan seemed to quietly sweep a certain sleeve of Princess Ping's clothes with her hand. And the place that was swept, if she remembers correctly, should have just been saved.
Looking at all this with a smile, Mu Xiwan was not annoyed.
"Oh, Lord Wang, I haven't seen you for a long time."
