Chapter 349: Coming to the door to apologize
Back at the banquet, as expected, it didn't take long for Jiang Ying to shout in shock, saying that the jade bead that the emperor had given him had been lost.
She sent someone to gather all the guests present, and then said with a solemn face:
"Ladies and gentlemen, the loss of the jade bead today is a matter of great importance, it is inevitable that there are too many visitors and thieves are mixed in, please be considerate and let me search and verify them one by one."
She said this politely, but the young ladies and sons of the family around her were still reluctant in their hearts.
They are all golden branches and jade leaves, and they are suspected of being thieves and have to be searched, how can they tolerate such excesses?
It's just that no matter how reluctant she is, Jiang Ying is the daughter of a general, but she still has to give face, so she can only agree helplessly.
She asked the women to line up in a row, starting with Mu Yunqian, Jiang Ying smiled politely before making a move, and said, "Miss Mu, offended." ”
"Wait!" She was about to start searching, but Mu Yunqian dodged and stopped her movements.
Jiang Ying thought that she was weak-hearted, and hooked her lips slightly, pretending to be puzzled, "What?" ”
"Most of the people present are women, and today's body search is also offensive to everyone, Miss Jiang wants to recover the whereabouts of the lost treasure so that we can understand the mood, but ......" Mu Yunqian said this, paused, looked around at the people around him, and then continued to speak,
"What if you don't find it? You can't just get to the bottom of it, can you? ”
There was a hint of aggressiveness in her tone, and the ladies of the surrounding families were spoken, and many people echoed, "Yes, what if you don't find it?" You can't just leave it at that! You'll have to give us an explanation. ”
"That's good," Jiang Ying only thought that Mu Yunqian was afraid that she would find out on her, so she wanted to find an excuse to let her retreat, and even said,
"If I haven't found the jade beads from you today, I will go to your mansions one by one to apologize. So, okay? ”
"Okay." The people around nodded one after another, and Mu Yunqian didn't say anything about refusal.
Jiang Ying looked at the calm woman in front of her, and thought with a sneer in her heart, I will have you looking good later!
At the same time, she also began to search her body, groping around Mu Yunqian's body, and finally found a bulging object around her waist, Jiang Ying smiled and reached out to take it out.
"Miss Mu, do you still have ...... now" Jiang Ying just wanted to question her, but she was only halfway through the words, and the remaining words "what to say" had not yet been able to be spoken, so she paused.
Because what she was holding in her hand was just an ordinary bead.
"What's wrong?" Mu Yunqian looked at her suspiciously and asked, "This is just the night pearl that my father gave me a few days ago, but it is not a royal gift." ”
Jiang Ying's face turned pale in an instant, she didn't understand how this could happen, but she didn't dare to show it, she looked at Mu Yunqian with a faint smile in front of her, and then she understood.
I'm afraid she's already seen through!
"No, nothing." Jiang Ying forcibly pressed it for a long time before suppressing the breath in her heart, and said, "I was so excited that I confessed my mistake for a while, and this is back to Miss Mu." ”
Mu Yunqian bowed his head slightly and took it.
At the same time, the other ladies of the family were also searched, and their faces were not very good-looking.
"It's disgusting to die, to be touched by a cheap girl!" Those ladies of the family who have no status and status have ugly faces and dare not speak, but those with high status do not need to be afraid of Jiang Ying, they have already opened their mouths to scold. vertex
"Hey, Jiang Ying! I haven't found anything yet, remember what you said. A woman next to her snorted and spoke, with a hint of displeasure in her tone.
“…… Nature. Jiang Ying's mood now can be described as complicated, she knows that she has been countercalculated by Mu Yunqian, and she is worried that she doesn't know where Yuzhu went, and at the same time, her face is hot.
As soon as she thought that she was going to apologize to them one by one, her mood sank to the bottom and she couldn't get better.
Those ladies of the family who are not right with her on weekdays, they don't know how to mock her when the time comes!
The more Jiang Ying thought about it, the more uncomfortable she became, her white and tender hands were tightly clenched into fists, staring at Mu Yunqian in front of her, and almost gritted her teeth and said, "Miss Mu, I'm really sorry for today's incident, and I will go to the house to apologize later." ”
"No problem." Mu Yun nodded lightly, his face unfazed.
A banquet with a different mind ended unhappily.
……
It was night, and the moon was shining through the window, shining into the room through the window, reflecting on the basin of water beside it.
Mu Yunqian wrung out the handkerchief and washed his face, and was about to rest, when he saw a man come in through the window.
Mu Yunqian glanced at him with a look that he was used to, and said, "Coming?" Thank you for today's events. ”
"What's polite," Li Changfeng smiled, and said as a matter of course: "Helping your daughter-in-law is what you should do." ”
"Who is your daughter-in-law!" The other party's nonsense is not a day or two, but Mu Yunqian will retort every time: "Don't be poor, where did you hide the jade bead today?" You have to deal with it well, otherwise it will be bad if you are caught. ”
"When I left the banquet today, I took it to the pawnshop and pawned it, so that I could exchange some silver to buy a gift for my little daughter-in-law." Li Changfeng walked towards her slowly, and said jokingly, with a smile on his face.
Mu Yunqian didn't believe that he would sell the royal gift, "Nonsense." ”
was about to continue to say something, but was preempted by Li Changfeng, he opened the topic and asked, "Don't mention this yet, what about this king's gift?" You said you would give it on the day of the feast. ”
"It's done." Mu Yunqian glanced at him, thinking about why Li Changfeng was always thinking about this, she didn't take out the gift immediately, but said, "You take off the jade pendant on your waist, and then close your eyes." ”
"What are you going to do?" Li Changfeng was puzzled.
"You listen to me." Mu Yunqian didn't give him a solution, but only said toughly.
"Okay," Li Changfeng nodded, and did as he was told: "Xiao Qian'er told this king to obey his orders." ”
Then he closed his eyes, and only heard a sound of Xi Xi Suosuo, but he didn't know what Mu Yunqian was doing.
After a while, a hand touched his waist and fiddled with it for a while before he heard Mu Yunqian say, "Okay, open it." ”
Li Changfeng opened his eyes, and subconsciously looked towards his waist, the jade pendant was still the same, and there was no change.
"I don't know what to give you, it's too expensive for me to make, so I can only weave a jade knot for you." Mu Yun said lightly, with a faint hint of imperceptible expectation in his eyes: "I hope you like it." ”
Li Changfeng smiled, "I like it, I naturally like it." ”
