Chapter 342: Who's Shy?
Mu Li smiled awkwardly, and secretly beckoned to Chu Lingyi, asking him to come forward quickly. Chu Lingyi put down the chicken leg in his hand unhurriedly, "There is Master Lao Shangshu, this king will take the princess over." ”
Master Shangshu walked out of the kitchen, Mu Li covered his face with his hands, and then turned to Chu Lingyi, pouting, full of helplessness. "Look at your class."
When he returned to his parents' house, Mu Li had to act carefully, and even went to the kitchen to find something to eat, but his father caught him. Fortunately, Master Shangshu didn't blame Mu Li, and Mu Li didn't know how to deal with himself.
It's just that Mu Li's mouth is full of greasy, and if he goes to the front hall to eat, he must not attract attention. Chu Lingyi rolled up his sleeves and wiped Mu Li with his hands.
"Hey, what are you doing?" As soon as Chu Lingyi touched Mu Li, Mu Li felt that his heart was beating faster, and he had to stay away from Chu Lingyi, and even his face involuntarily turned red.
Chu Lingyi took a step forward, "What, is the princess shy?" ”
Mu Li touched his face and found that it was very hot, and he didn't want to admit his feelings for Chu Lingyi. "What nonsense, I'm bored."
Mu Li turned around and ran out of the back kitchen, stopping again. Mu Li thought again, if he went to the front hall alone, would he meet the second aunt again, so he stood there and waited for Chu Lingyi to come over.
"You can't hurry."
Mu Li looked at Chu Lingyi's grinding and chirping, he was a little anxious, don't let everyone sit down at that time, only he and Chu Lingyi swallowed slowly, this is not a gossip. Mu Li stepped forward to pull Chu Lingyi, but Chu Lingyi held Mu Li in his arms.
"What's the princess in a hurry, is the chicken leg that this king gave you just now is not delicious?"
Chu Lingyi didn't mention it, but he was angry when he mentioned Mu Li. "You also said that if you hadn't dragged me, would you have been discovered?"
Fortunately, it was just Lord Shangshu who saw it, otherwise Mu Li would not have the face to go out from here, and thought that Mu Li had nothing to eat in the prince's mansion, so he went to the back kitchen of his mother's house to steal chicken legs.
The people who came to the back kitchen to serve the dishes saw Mu Li and Chu Lingyi in this kind of place, so they hurriedly bypassed, and did not forget to take a peek.
"If you don't let it go, it's because I don't have enough ugliness today." Mu Li pushed Chu Lingyi away with all his might, and went to the vestibule without looking back.
Xiaohong was looking for Mu Li in the front hall, but when she turned around, the princess was gone, and Xiaohong stomped her feet anxiously. Shangshu Mansion Xiaohong is the first time, and she is not very familiar with the layout here, so she doesn't dare to walk around, so she has been wandering around the hall.
Seeing Mu Li, Xiaohong didn't mention how excited she was. "Princess, where have you been, but let me find it easily." The second aunt's ability Xiaohong is considered to have seen it, although she was confined to the room by Lord Shangshu, but today is a happy day, everyone is busy in the front hall, how can you ensure that the second aunt does not make trouble.
"Walked around." Mu Li, who was embarrassed, told Xiaohong about stealing chicken legs with Chu Lingyi in the back kitchen.
Chu Lingyi walked over and pulled Mu Li to sit. Naturally, the people who were at the table with Mu were Master Shangshu and Song Qing.
Mu Li is not afraid of Lord Shangshu, but he is his father no matter what, and there is a sense of awe in his heart, which is inevitably a little uncomfortable.
The second aunt sent the maid who served her, and she hid behind the pillar secretly, not knowing what she was looking at.
Mu Jing has never come out with her personal girl since she was sent to the cave room, and the second aunt has never gone in to see her daughter, this kind of motherhood is also very rare.
It was not appropriate for the bride to come out to show her face that day, Mu Jing was a little bored in the room, so she took off her hijab and quietly lay on the door to listen to the movement outside.
"Second Miss, this is not good, in case my uncle comes in......" The maid kindly reminded Mu Jing that it would not be good for people to see it for a while.
"I'll take a look." Mu Jing saw through the crack in the door that her mother was sneakily looking, this is Shangshu Mansion, there is no need to be like this. Mu Jing was very curious, what her mother was doing. But it was a little farther away, and there was no response after a few calls. The maid on the side kept urging again, and Mu Jing could only give up.
At the dinner table, Master Shangshu didn't move his chopsticks, and Mu Li was embarrassed to move, so he sat like this, while Song Ming toasted elsewhere.
Mu Li gently kicked Chu Lingyi with his foot, saying that he could find an excuse to leave, anyway, Chu Lingyi was the prince, and he could leave the scene casually if he was on business.
Chu Lingyi retracted his foot, thinking that Mu Li had accidentally touched it. also patted Mu Li with his hand, asking Mu Li to pay attention to the occasion. Mu Li went to Chu Lingyi's side and smiled sideways, and said to Chu Lingyi in a very small voice: "I'm so hungry......"
Lord Shangshu saw that Mu Li was talking to Chu Lingyi and was sneaky in front of everyone, "What do you say, eat when you are hungry, why should you be restrained in your own home." ”
God, my father has taken the wrong medicine, why is his attitude so good. Mu Li is really hungry, since his father said that he can eat with his hands, then you are welcome. Mu Li stared at his father while eating, what was the reason why his father became so kind, was it just because today was the wedding day of his second daughter.
If this is the case, Mu Li can't help but feel a little sad, vaguely remembering that his father has never treated him like this when he got married. Anyway, it's all in the past, and Mu Li doesn't bother to mention it, so let's fill my stomach first.
A little maid walked in front of the second aunt with wine, and the second aunt hurriedly stopped her. "Stop, where are you going to send this wine?"
The maid did not speak, but pointed to the antechamber.
"I'm thirsty, pour me some water first, put this wine here first, I'll show you." The second aunt took the wine from the little maid's hand and put it on the stone bench beside her.
The little maid hesitated, but was scolded by the second aunt, so she had to pour water for the second aunt first, who let the second aunt is now the manager of Shangshu Mansion, in case of offense, the future life will not be easy.
The second aunt took advantage of no one, took out a packet of medicinal powder from her waist, quickly put it into the wine, shook the wine a few times, and carefully looked at no one before leaving.
The little maid brought the water, but there was no trace of the second aunt, and someone in the front hall was urging, so she had to pick up the wine and hurry over.
This wine is specially used to honor people, so the second aunt is not worried that Song Ming will drink it. The second aunt has calculated that it is time to pay tribute to the prince and the princess next, and the time for the pharmacy to go down is just right.
The second aunt put not poison, a small amount of drug, the amount of medicine is not large, it will make people unconsciously, and they think that they are too strong to drink, and no one will know.
"Mother, what are you doing, what do you put in the wine?" The hijab on Mu Jing's head was half hidden, she just felt that the second aunt's behavior was a little strange, and as soon as she sat down, she got up to look at it again, and then she saw this scene.
Mu Jing didn't know what was going on outside, so she entered the cave room after worshipping the hall, and waited for Song Ming to rest after toasting.
