Chapter 204: The Best Relative
After having breakfast with Mo Jue, Mo Jue went to deal with the affairs of the Nine Folds Palace, and she walked towards the Treasure Pavilion alone, anyway, with her current status, no one should stop her.
However, looking at the woman blocking the road in front of her, she suddenly felt that she was thinking too little, and someone still dared to stop her, looking at the other party's critical eyes, she didn't know what to say.
When the other party finally looked enough, Mu Liyue heard her say, "You are Brother Qingyan's fiancée Mu Liyue?
Brother Qingyan?
Mu Liyue reacted for a moment before she knew that the other party was talking about Mo Jue, she took a deep breath, raised a smile, and said with a smile: "May I ask the girl, who are you?"
The critically eyed woman glanced at Mu Liyue with disdain, her expression arrogant, "Miss Ben is Brother Qingyan's cousin. ”
"Cousin?" Mu Liyue looked at the woman in front of her with heavy makeup, her eyes lit lightly, "I don't know." ”
Hua Qin'er choked, "Miss Ben is Mrs. Hua Yun'er's niece Hua Qin'er, and she is the daughter of Qingyan's brother's uncle, now you should know each other." ”
Mu Liyue could see from Hua Qin'er's expression that she had thoughts about Mo Jue, and she was unhappy, but considering that the other party was the maiden family of Mo Jue's biological mother, she resisted the urge to scold the other party, and said lightly: "Oh." ”
Hua Qin'er was very dissatisfied with Mu Liyue's obviously perfunctory attitude, since Jun Qingyan became the palace master of the Nine Palaces, their Hua family has also changed from a down-and-out family to a family that rushes to curry favor with all forces.
Especially the daughters who looked down on her before, now they are all around her to please her, which makes her vanity unprecedentedly satisfied.
She followed her father and mother to the Nine Folds Palace today, and her father and mother had told her before she came that she intended to marry her to Jun Qingyan, so she specially came to see the palace master's cousin who had not seen her for more than ten years.
It was also a coincidence that she met Mu Liyue here, but when she heard the passers-by of the Nine Palaces respectfully calling this woman in red Miss Mu, she guessed that she was the fiancée of Brother Qingyan.
"Mu Liyue, do you really think that with you like this, Brother Qingyan will marry you?" Hua Qin'er couldn't stand the other party's coldness, and deliberately sarcastic.
Mu Liyue had gone through so much that she wouldn't be angry because of such a simple sentence, she looked at the woman in front of her with great interest, and asked, "What do I look like?"
Hua Qin'er said contemptuously: "I have no family background, my appearance is average, and I can't be worthy of Brother Qingyan." ”
Mu Liyue followed her words and said, "Then you mean that if I am not worthy of him, you will be worthy of him." ”
Hua Qin'er said as a matter of course: "Of course, I am the daughter of the Hua family, and Brother He Qingyan is still a childhood sweetheart, Aunt Yun'er said when she was alive that she would marry me to Brother Qingyan." ”
Mu Liyue looked at Mo Jue, who appeared not far behind Hua Qin'er, and said with a smile: "Palace Master, your cousin is here to look for you. ”
Although Mu Liyue was smiling, in Mo Jue's eyes, her smile was gloomy and threatening, and he had a hunch that if she didn't handle this so-called cousin well, she would definitely have trouble with him.
Mo Jue looked at the people behind him and ordered, "Go and invite the head of the Hua family and Mrs. Hua over." ”
Hua Qin'er hadn't had time to see Mo Jue yet, and when she heard Mu Liyue shouting "Palace Master", she knew that the man in white with a personable demeanor and a detached temperament not far away was her brother Qingyan.
Mu Liyue saw that Hua Qin'er, who was still a proud princess just now, instantly turned into a shy little woman, and shouted to Mo Jue in a delicate voice: "Brother Qingyan, I am Qin'er, do you remember me?"
Mo Jue didn't even glance at Hua Qin'er, walked straight to Mu Liyue's side, and asked gently, "Li'er, didn't you say you were going to the Treasure Pavilion, why are you still here?"
Mu Liyue smiled sweetly and said, "Brother Qingyan, didn't you meet your cousin?"
Mo Jue got goosebumps from Mu Liyue's screaming "Brother Qingyan", knowing that she was jealous, but it was only when he saw his uncle today that he remembered that he still had such a cousin.
"Li'er, I don't know her well, if it weren't for the people from the Hua family who came to the door today, I wouldn't remember that I still have such a relative. ”
When Mu Liyue heard this, she instantly put the vinegar behind her, and from Mo Jue's words, she could tell that this uncle who came to the door was probably not a good thing.
Seeing Jun Qingyan coming over and not looking at her, Hua Qin'er was a little aggrieved, looking at Mu Liyue's eyes full of anger, seeing that Jun Qingyan only cared about talking to Mu Liyue, her eyes looked at Mu Liyue as if they had been quenched with poison.
Mu Liyue felt the burning eyes falling on her body, she glanced over, and just saw Hua Qin'er hurriedly withdraw her eyes, but Mu Liyue still saw the hatred in her eyes clearly.
Mu Liyue was a little speechless, what was this woman thinking in her head, she didn't do anything, so she was inexplicably hated.
Just as Hua Qin'er was about to get to Mo Jue's side again, Mo Jue sent someone to invite the head of the Hua family and Mrs. Hua to come.
Mo Jue's appearance is somewhat similar to that of the Hua family master, after all, Mo Jue originally looked more like his mother, but the calculation in the eyes of the Hua family master made Mu Liyue very disgusted, Mrs. Hua had high cheekbones and a pointed chin, and she looked like that kind of harsh and mean look.
When the head of the Hua family and Mrs. Hua saw Mo Jue with her daughter, they directly ignored Mu Liyue's existence, and Mrs. Hua first symbolically said a few words to Hua Qin'er: "Qin'er, why are you running around alone? ”
Then she happily said to Mo Jue: "Palace Master, I didn't expect you to see Qin'er, you used to play together when you were young, do you remember?"
Mu Liyue stood aside and listened to Mrs. Hua's words, and sighed in her heart: It is worthy of being a mother and daughter, and they all say the same thing.
Mo Never paid attention to Madame Hua's question, he took Mu Liyue's hand and introduced to them, "This is my fiancée Mu Liyue, Liyue, these two are the head of the Hua family and Madame Hua. ”
Mu Liyue didn't salute either, and stood beside Mo Jue and greeted the two: "The head of the Hua family, Mrs. Hua." ”
The head of the Hua family and Mrs. Hua didn't expect that the woman they ignored was actually the fiancée that Mo absolutely claimed, and said in a daze: "Miss Mu is good." ”
Seeing that the scene fell silent, the head of the Hua family took the initiative to ask, "Palace master, you sent someone to find us, is there something wrong?"
Mo Jue said directly: "I invited the two of you to come over, I want you to bring Ling Qianjin back to be disciplined well, you must know that you can say anything casually." ”
The head of the Hua family was taken aback, thinking that Hua Qin'er had collided with Mo Jue with words, and after the temptation in the front hall not long ago, he knew that the current Mo Jue didn't care about the Hua family at all, and he treated them politely completely on the face of the dead Hua Yun'er.
If he accidentally annoys him, it will be difficult to achieve the goal of the Hua family's rise, thinking about this, he immediately taught Hua Qin'er a stern lesson: "Qin'er, you apologize to your cousin quickly, and promise not to talk nonsense in the future." ”
Hua Qin'er was stunned for a moment, and then cried aggrievedly, "I didn't, I haven't spoken to Brother Qingyan, why apologize?"
The head of the Hua family was also stunned, looked at Mo Jue, and heard Mo Jue say lightly: "She doesn't need to apologize to me, if she wants to apologize, apologize to Li'er." ”
Hearing the first half of the sentence, the head of the Hua family was relieved, but when he heard the second half of the sentence, he was a little confused, and of course he was reluctant to let Hua Qin'er apologize to a woman of unknown origin.
"Dare to ask Miss Mu, why did Qin'er offend you?"
Mu Liyue saw the changing attitude of the head of the Hua family, and knew that the other party had the same idea as Hua Qin'er, and they looked down on her.
When he thought that Hua Qin'er had offended Mo Jue, he asked Hua Qin'er to apologize without asking about thirty-seven twenty-one, and when he learned that it was her who offended, he asked where he offended her.
Also, if it weren't for the Hua family couple who said those words in front of Hua Qin'er, how could Hua Qin'er, a deep lady, know so much?
Obviously, Mo Jue also found out about the Hua family master's contempt for Mu Liyue, he was a little dissatisfied, and wanted to say something but Mu Liyue stopped him with his eyes.
Regardless of whether the relationship is good or not, after all, on the surface, the Hua family and his wife are the elders of Mo Jue, and if there are rumors that Mo Jue is fighting against his elders for his fiancée, it will not be good for Mo Jue's reputation, just such a trivial matter, Mu Liyue can completely solve it by herself.
With just the right smile on her face, she said to the head of the Hua family: "Master of the Hua family, Ling Qianjin didn't offend me, but as a young lady who has not been out of the cabinet, isn't it good to put words like marriage and marriage contracts on her lips at every turn?"
Seeing that Hua Qin'er listened to Mu Liyue's words and turned her head weakly, he knew that Mu Liyue was not lying, and it must have been Hua Qin'er who said everything he said to her at home.
Mrs. Hua is also a good person, and when she saw that the situation was wrong, she immediately said: "Miss Mu, I'm sorry, Qin'er is still young, she just likes to be close to the palace master since she was a child, and she said the wrong thing for a while, don't mind." ”
Mu Liyue didn't answer, she didn't care about the news that Mo Jue and Hua Qin'er were very close before, so she wouldn't misunderstand Mo Jue for an irrelevant person.
Mrs. Hua was a little embarrassed when she saw that no one answered, and she looked at Mu Liyue's eyes more and more disliked, and she couldn't help scolding in her heart: Sure enough, she is a woman of unknown origin, and she has no tutor at all.
Suddenly, her eyes lit up, and she thought that she had found Mu Liyue's pain point, and asked, "Miss Mu, I don't know where you are from?
The implication is to mock Mu Liyue for making a private life with a man without the order of her parents.
Mu Liyue stared at Madame Hua and said in a cold tone: "This is not for Madame Hua to worry about." "She's too lazy to explain so much to irrelevant people.
However, some people don't know how to read people's eyes, thinking that Mu Liyue is really of unknown origin, fatherless and motherless, and deliberately said in the tone of an elder: "You child, the palace master has no other elders now, I am his aunt, and it is right to worry about his marriage." ”
Mo Jue couldn't listen anymore, and directly ordered someone to send off the guests, and he pulled Mu Liyue and left, leaving the three Hua family members with ugly faces.
