Chapter 444: Tangyuan

Princess Pingyang looked at Mu Hongshang again after more than half a year, and only felt that this girl had grown taller again. And Zheng Ying looked at Mu Hongshang again after half a year, and only felt that she was very thin.

Thinking of Mu Hongsheng's sad appearance when she was guarding Mu Chengfang's soul before, Zheng Ying couldn't help but be very worried. But even if he was worried, he couldn't ask, he couldn't say. He couldn't even take a second look, and after coming down from the teahouse, he kept hurrying away, not daring to stop at all.

Today's words of Princess Pingyang made Zheng Ying very vigilant. He knew that the eldest sister had probably discovered something, so he had to be more careful. It doesn't matter if it is detected by the eldest sister, but if it is seen by Zheng Jin and Empress Wei, the consequences may be unimaginable.

It's not that Zheng Ying doesn't want to care about Mu Hongsheng, but he doesn't dare to do it. But Xie Shurou from the teahouse next door obviously has no such concerns at all.

In fact, Xie Shurou, like Zheng Ying, her first impression when she saw Mu Hongshang was, why did she lose so much weight? ! How could she lose so much weight?!

Mu Hongshang came on horseback with her brothers, and as soon as she handed over the reins to the teahouse junior, she saw Xie Shurou's maid Yingxing hurrying and appeared at the gate of the teahouse.

After Ying Xing first greeted Mrs. Mu and Mrs. Mu, she stood in front of Mu Hongsheng and said with a smile: "Miss Mu, the slave maid has given you a greeting." I haven't seen you for a long time, and our young lady has been thinking about you! ”

"I'm thinking about you young lady, too." Mu Hongshang was still very happy to see Yingxing: "Sister Xie has already arrived?" ”

"Our young lady is here at the end of the hour," Yingxing pursed her lips and smiled, "I've been waiting for you!" ”

"Let's go play." Old Madam Mu turned her head and waved her hand at Mu Hongsheng: "Leave us alone." ”

"Jinyi and I will sit with my grandmother for a while," Mu Lingyi immediately came over and told Mu Hongsheng: "If you want to go shopping on the street, don't go alone, send the lotus leaf over to spread a word, and Jinyi and I will accompany you." ”

"Okay." Mu Hongsheng nodded obediently: "Then the fifth brother is waiting for me." ”

"Daughter-in-law," Second Lady Mu also cheered up and smiled at Gu Yilan: "Miss Xie Si is also your friend, you can also play with Hongsheng." ”

"Mother, I won't go," Gu Yilan shook her head and smiled: "I'll accompany you in the teahouse to watch the lights." ”

"I don't need you to accompany me," Second Lady Mu immediately waved her hand: "Just sit in the teahouse, there are maids and Xiao Er waiting for tea snacks, what can you do by staying by the side?" Do you want to talk to us at length about the years of gossip? You still accompany your sister to find Miss Xie Si. Hongshang definitely can't stay still, and wants to go to the long street to play. There are a lot of people today, and everyone is crowded in a panic, your brothers are boys, and their hearts are thick, and we are more relieved to have you to take care of them. ”

Second Mrs. Mu said this, and Gu Yilan didn't continue to insist, but she still insisted on sending Old Madam Mu and her wife into the private room of the teahouse, and stared at the second brother before leaving after delivering tea and snacks. When leaving, she deliberately left Fang Xin by Mrs. Mu's side, in case the ladies had something to do, so that they could run errands and pass on the word.

Mu Hongshang didn't leave to find Xie Shurou first, but waited quietly on the side for Gu Yilan to finish her work, and then the two sisters-in-law went to the Xie family's private room together. After entering the private room, the two were surprised to find that the private room was empty, and only Xie Shurou was alone.

"Why are you there," Gu Yilan asked, "What about Mrs. Xie?" I'll take my little sister to say hello first, so as not to be rude. ”

"Oh, don't be foolish." Xie Shurou waved her hand: "My grandmother didn't come at all." My mother and a few of my aunts and uncles are in the same place with the Wang family right now, so I don't need you to go over and say hello. I asked my mother to book this private room. ”

"I see, then we really don't want to bother." Gu Yilan nodded and replied, "When will your third sister pass the door?" ”

"At the beginning of February, it's not a few days." Xie Shurou replied while beckoning to Mu Hongsheng enthusiastically: "Hongshang, come and sit, I asked people to go to Kuixing Tower to buy osmanthus pine nut candy, Yingyue went to put it on the plate, and I will bring it up later." ”

"Sister Xie still remembers that I love to eat this." Mu Hongsheng smiled and sat next to Xie Shurou

"I also asked the kitchen at home to make some freshly flavored rice balls, which have been taken to the back kitchen of the teahouse, and I can eat them later." Xie Shurou grabbed Mu Hongsheng's hand, pinched her wrist, and looked distressed: "Why did you lose so much weight, is it sick?" ”

"Nope." Mu Hongshang shook her head: "I'm fine, I'm not sick." ”

"I'm not sick and thin like this." Xie Shurou unceremoniously pulled her face and rolled her eyes at Gu Yilan, who was sitting opposite: "How do you take care of people as a sister-in-law?" It's only been half a year, and the cheeks of the red dress are going to be sunken. ”

Xie Shurou and Gu Yilan, a pair of bad friends who don't like each other, as long as they don't quarrel when they meet, they are uncomfortable, so Xie Shurou thought that Gu Yilan would come back with a choking sound after being beaten by her. However, unexpectedly, Gu Yilan didn't reply, but sighed and replied with a sad face: "Who said it wasn't." I lost so much weight in a few months, and my grandmother and aunt were also very worried. Every time I talk about her, she just says that we are careless. ”

"It was originally a blind concern," Mu Hongshang replied with a smile: "What's the matter with being able to eat and drink?" I've just grown taller and thinner in the past six months. ”

"Fifteen or sixteen years old is the age when it is easy to gain weight, so it's better for you to go against others." Xie Shurou frowned: "What looks thin is that you have lost a lot of weight." ”

"Sister Xie, why didn't you say that my sister-in-law has also lost a lot of weight." Mu Hongshang pointed to Gu Yilan, who was sitting opposite: "Her cheeks have also sunken a lot." ”

"Alas!" Xie Shurou sighed and didn't speak again. Why did Gu Yilan and Mu Hongshang lose so much weight, she was actually very clear about her psychology. General Mu Chengfang passed away, and the Mu family must have had a hard time in the past few months. Not to mention Gu Yilan and Mu Hongsheng, just now she looked down through the window and saw that the wives of the Mu family were also not good-looking.

"Old lady, which private room are they in?" Xie Shurou asked, "I'll go over and say hello." Later, I will cook the rice balls I brought with me, and send some to the old lady and the lady to taste. ”

"Just hand over the rice balls to Fang Zhi," Gu Yilan immediately replied, "You don't have to go over to say hello." Your family will have a happy event in a few days......"

Gu Yilan didn't finish speaking, but Xie Shurou understood what she meant, so she couldn't help but sigh, she really deserves to be the heroine who became the queen in the original plot, and she really thought about everything.
