Chapter 49: The Silver Ticket
Early the next morning, Guo Xiaoniang took her fourth sister Mu Ningmeng and fifth sister Mu Ningyin to see Mu Ningxuan.
Guo Xiaoniang piled up a smile on her face as always, greeted Mu Ningxuan, and swept her eyes at the fourth and fifth sisters from time to time, asking them to express their concern for Mu Ningxuan, the eldest sister.
Mu Ningxuan knew that they were just acting, but she still had to socialize.
Guo Xiaoniang came over today, and after a long time of talking, she hoped that Mu Ningxuan could go over with her for the banquet that would be held in the Zhengxun Earl's Mansion two days later.
Guo Xiaoniang means that the sons and ladies of the dignitaries of the capital's high-ranking families will go to the banquet and happen to meet together.
Although she knew that Guo Xiaoniang's drunkard did not mean to drink, Mu Ningxuan thought that the San Lang from Wu Wangfu would also pass, so she nodded and agreed.
Guo Xiaoniang saw that Mu Ningxuan agreed simply, and happily pulled Mu Ningxuan and said for a while, until Mu Ningxuan said that she wanted to rest and sleep for a while, Guo Xiaoniang and the others left, and Mu Ningxuan's ears were finally cleaned.
Xiaofu snorted angrily at Guo Xiaoniang's back, "County Lord, they obviously have bad intentions, why did you agree to go to the banquet?" ”
"It's okay, they can't do anything to me."
"But you're not well." Xiaofu said distressedly.
Mu Ningxuan smiled lightly: "It's already much better, and it will be fine if you rest for two more days." ”
"Sister, are you so distracted from your body?" A reproachful man's voice came from outside the door.
Mu Ningxuan looked up and saw her eldest brother Mu Yuchen striding in.
"Big brother, why are you here?"
"Yesterday, my sister had a fever, why didn't she ask someone to tell me? On such a cold day, I don't know how to take care of my body, what do the maids around me eat! Mu Yuchen said angrily, but his tone was more concerned.
Mu Ningxuan smiled and said: "It's none of their business, it's my sister's own greed, it's not a serious illness, but now it's a big deal, don't be angry, let alone anger others." ”
"You, you're so old, you're still so childlike, since my sister is back by my side, if I can't take care of you, how can I have the face to face my late mother." Mu Yuchen's eyes turned red.
"Big brother, my sister knows it's wrong, and it won't be like this in the future." Mu Ningxuan smiled calmly, turned her head to Xiaofu and said, "Go and pour a cup of hot tea for the eldest brother." ”
Mu Yuchen waved his hand and said: "No need, I will be relieved to see that you are okay, there are many things in the army, I will go first." ”
"It's still snowing outside, big brother slow down."
"Don't worry, you rest more, don't worry about the banquet set up in the Earl's Palace. If you don't want to go, don't go, and your brother will carry it. Mu Yuchen patted his chest and said.
Mu Ningxuan nodded: "Got it." ”
After lunch, Mu Ningxuan slept for a while, and this sleep went straight from noon to evening.
Mu Ningxuan slept comfortably, thinking about going to the wine cellar to make incense at night, but Xiaofu couldn't stop her, so she invited Aunt Su over.
"County Lord, you are just a little better, you still have to rest more, the matter of making incense is not in a hurry, a few days ago, the incense you made was enough for them to cope with it for a while." Aunt Su persuaded with good words.
Mu Ningxuan sighed and said, "I thought that before Chinese New Year's Eve, I would stay up for more than ten nights, and the incense for the next three months of the next year would be made together, but I didn't expect my body to be so useless." ”
"You can't make incense in a hurry, the county lord can make it slowly." As she spoke, Aunt Su took out a stack of silver tickets from her sleeve and handed it to Mu Ningxuan.
"County Lord, this is the silver earned by the "Treasure Incense" last month, and last month it earned a little less because of the control of incense, excluding the official share, only 76,000 taels. ”
