Early the next morning, Mu Ningxuan finished freshening up and eating breakfast, and then took Xiaofu and Qiumo to Lin'anhou Mansion to visit Mrs. Shen.

Lin'an Hou Mansion is located in the capital around a little north of the position, although Lin'an Hou Mansion has been cold and decadent these years, not reused by the official family, but in the end it was once a prominent family, the family is still very rich, the whole Lin'an Hou Mansion is very magnificent from the outside.

The carriage stopped at the gate of Lin'an Hou's Mansion, and Mu Ningxuan asked Xiaofu to get off the carriage and deliver the post.

After a while, the little maid was followed by a woman about forty years old, who saluted Mu Ningxuan with a smile on her face and invited Mu Ningxuan in.

"The county lord is not surprised, the old slave is Mother Hua next to Mrs. Shen. The eldest lady has been sick for the past two days, and when she heard that you were coming, her spirit was instantly better, and she was already up and was washing in the room. The eldest lady asked the old slave to come first to welcome the county lord, please come here. ”

Mu Ningxuan asked with concern: "What kind of illness did my cousin have, can you see the doctor?" ”

"It's an old headache, and I can't look at it well." Mother Hua sighed lightly.

Mother Hua led Mu Ningxuan to the main hall, and Mrs. Shen was sipping tea and sitting on the top.

Seeing Mu Ningxuan coming, Mrs. Shen immediately put down the tea bowl, stood up, walked in front of Mu Ningxuan, and said softly: "Is it Xuan'er?" ”

Mu Ningxuan saluted and said, "My cousin is fine." ”

Mrs. Shen hurriedly pulled Mu Ningxuan up, and said distressedly: "Good boy, I hugged you when you were born, but I didn't expect you to be so old now, my life in the palace has been difficult all these years, and you have suffered a lot, child." ”

Mu Ningxuan shook her head and said, "Xuan'er is not bitter, cousin, Xuan'er took the liberty to visit and disturbed her cousin's rest." I heard Hua's mother say that you are not feeling well, you have a terrible headache, does your head still hurt? ”

"It's okay, the head wind that fell in the confinement has been painful for all these years." Mrs. Shen smiled and pulled Mu Ningxuan to sit down.

Mu Ningxuan continued: "Xuan'er came here today to thank her cousin, Xuan'er heard from her eldest brother yesterday that when her mother went, her cousin and aunt came back from Luzhou to offer condolences, and Xuan'er didn't dare to forget this kindness. As she spoke, two lines of tears fell on Mu Ningxuan's face.

"Hey, your mother's life is too worthless. Fortunately, your father has not raised that Guo Xiaoniang as a step-family until now, and you and your eldest brother are now considered to have come to a hard time. Mrs. Shen sighed slightly, and her eyes were red.

"The world is impermanent, and it is fate in the end." Mu Ningxuan wiped away her tears and beckoned to Xiaofu and Yutang, who walked up to Mrs. Shen and opened the brocade box in their hands.

Mu Ningxuan pointed to the things in the brocade box and said one by one: "Aunt cousin, this is a hundred years of ginseng, it is Xuan'er's filial piety to you, this box is some small objects of gold and silver jewelry, and it is a little care that Xuan'er gave to her brothers and sisters in the family." ”

Mu Ningxuan made a generous move, and Mrs. Shen hesitated slightly, and said, "Xuan'er came to her aunt's house, just like going to her own house, why did she bring these valuable items!" Take it back quickly. ”

Mu Ningxuan pretended to be serious and said: "If my cousin doesn't accept it, she dislikes Xuan'er, and then Xuan'er won't dare to come to the door in the future." ”

Looking at Mu Ningxuan's serious appearance, Mrs. Shen said with a smile: "Your child is serious and serious, but he looks like Aunt Wen, that is, your grandmother." Mrs. Shen turned to sigh: "Your mother and your grandmother both went early, and they didn't protect you." ”

Seeing that Mu Ningxuan's eyes were red again, Mrs. Shen hurriedly said, "Harm! Don't say these sad words, then my aunt will thank Xuan'er on behalf of the brothers and sisters in the family, but you are not allowed to bring these valuables when you come back next time. ”

Mu Ningxuan raised her hand and gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, revealing two small dimples and nodded with a smile, "Aunt Cousin, it's not too early, Xuan'er will go back first, Aunt Cousin, take a good rest." ”

Mrs. Shen hurriedly said: "Why do you want to go back when you come here?" I'll have lunch here and then go back to meet your cousins. ”

Mu Ningxuan excused herself: "There is indeed something wrong today, Xuan'er will come to see her cousin again after a while, and it will not be too late to see her cousins and cousins at that time." Aunt Cousin must take good care of her body, there is a Imperial Doctor Zhang in the palace, and his medical skills are superb, so Xuan'er wants to ask him to come over and take a look at you. ”
