The atmosphere was deadlocked, and Mu Yu could only stubbornly talk to Xie Chongning, "Is Brother Xie here to find me?" Or let's talk about it elsewhere? ”

"Where else to go? Just sit here and say. The old lady glared at Xie Chongning, although she had resentment, her years of upbringing did not allow her to do anything excessive.

Mu Yu was even more embarrassed, and she looked at Xie Chongning in embarrassment. Xie Chongning cooperated, lifted his robe, and sat elegantly on the stone bench, "I'm disturbed." ”

"Then Brother Xie came to me today, is there something wrong?" Mu Yu secretly wrung his veil, and his appearance was extremely unnatural.

Xie Chongning took all her actions into his eyes, and he calmly took out a pale pink purse from his sleeve and put it in front of Mu Yu, "Didn't you say that you lost your purse before?" This one is for you. ”

The old lady glanced at the purse, which was embroidered with fresh flowers, and couldn't help but complain, "Since ancient times, women have embroidered purses for men, how can men give purses to women." ”

Mu Yu raised his hand hesitated for a moment, and smiled at Xie Chongning with guilt.

"If you lose your purse and can't embroider it yourself, just ask your mother to embroider one for you, how can there be any reason to accept a man's purse." The old lady's complaint was not unreasonable.

Not to mention anything else, in ancient times, women gave men purses, if Mu Yu received the purse sent by Xie Chongning, if he let others know, it could really become a popular joke.

It is precisely because of this that Mu Yu thought that men rarely buy purses, after they got married, they were all embroidered by their wives, and before they got married, they were embroidered by their mothers, and no one had ever embroidered purses for Xie Chongning, could it be this reason, so he took away his purse and didn't return it to himself?

"Grandmother, Brother Xie is a good intention, it just so happens that my purse has dropped, and there is nothing wrong with using this." Xie Chongning can take the initiative to send something to herself, so she naturally has to accept it.

He didn't have any people close to him, and he could take the initiative to send things to himself, presumably because he regarded himself as a close person, and then thought of him secretly hiding his purse, Mu Yu was even more distressed about this great minister who was going to be windy and rainy in the future.

The old lady still didn't think so, but she didn't object verbally, but she couldn't see this Xie Chongning at all, so it was better to be out of sight and out of mind, picked up the cane in the maid's hand, snorted coldly, and left the seat.

Mu Yu will turn his head and look at his mother innocently, and convey the message with his eyes, Grandmother has left, do you still want to sit here?

Shen Mei was also instructed by her husband not to let Yu'er go to see Xie Chongning, but he didn't say that Xie Chongning was not allowed to come to see Yu'er, besides, the two were married, Shen Mei knew that this marriage would not drag on for long, and they would have to face it sooner or later, if the two could really have feelings, Xie Chongning would naturally be better if he fell in love with Yu'er.

"I also have something to do, you take care of Lord Xie." Shen Mei patted her daughter's shoulder intimately and smiled politely at Xie Chongning.

"Brother Xie, are you visiting today just to give me a purse?" Under Xie Chongning's gaze, Mu Yu hung his purse around his waist.

"Just drop by." Xie Chongning replied coldly.

"Then Brother Xie does he have any favorite patterns?" She was going to embroider a purse herself and give it to Xie Chongning as a return gift, although Xie Chongning secretly hid his purse, but she sewed one specifically for him, and the meaning was always different.

Xie Chongning hesitated for a moment, "Spring flowers." ”

Mu Yu raised his eyebrows, and said that he had never seen his purse? The spring flowers are out! Is this his own admission? But...... Xie Chongning actually recognized that he was embroidering spring flowers, not goldfish?

"What a coincidence, the purse I just lost is embroidered with spring flowers." Mu Yu pretended to be surprised, deliberately tempting.

As a result, all I got was Xie Chongning's calm answer, "What a coincidence." ”

"By the way, about the Flying Eagle Gang, did Brother Xie find anything else?" failed to get an answer beyond his expectations, so Mu Yu changed the topic interestingly.

"After the three died, the trail was broken." Xie Chongning replied.

"What about Mu Liangxuan's side? These three people are dead, doesn't Mu Liangxuan do anything? She has been bored at home for the past few days, and she has no news outside.

"He is also looking for these three people, but the news of their death has been sealed off by Dali Temple, and he does not know."

As soon as these three people died, for Mu Liangxuan, it was equivalent to cutting off the financial route, maybe one day Mu Liangxuan would return to the Luanping Marquis Mansion to ask for asylum, it seemed that she needed to make some preparations in advance.

"Mu Liangxuan will know sooner or later, but Brother Xie, do you know that Mu Liangxuan's promotion will be related to the business of these three people?" In fact, she has long thought about it.

Mu Liangxuan turned out to be just a small attendant, and salt was only accessible to officials above the third grade, and he was able to cooperate with these three people, perhaps because he was in the cabinet and could tie up with higher officials. And that official made money, so he naturally promoted Mu Liangxuan.

Xie Chongning raised his eyes, his narrow eyes were raised, as if he didn't expect Mu Liang to have such an association, "Well, Mu Liangxuan's side is already secretly investigating." ”

"If you find out who helped Mu Liangxuan get promoted, you will be able to find out more about it. It's just that Mu Liangxuan has now cut off contact with these three people, and he is very likely to be wrecked. Mu Yu continued to speculate intently.

Xie Chongning's dark eyes stared at Mu Yu, it was the first time he observed this girl so seriously, he knew that Mu Yu was a little clever, but to be able to think of so much with just such a thing, it was definitely not clever.

Mu Yu continued to speak, but did not get any response, and when she raised her head to look at Xie Chongning, she found that the other party's deep eyes looked back at her, she lowered her voice more and more confidently, and finally asked even more worriedly, "Brother Xie, did I say something wrong?" ”

The corners of Xie Chongning's mouth appeared with a slight arc, "You're right, but even if you find out, you can't act rashly." ”

Mu Yu understands the truth, it involves the officials of the cabinet, and it is not a person who is arrested, if it is not for the presence of human and material evidence, the cabinet has the opportunity to bite back.

She and Xie Chongning chatted casually, and it was even late in the evening, which could be regarded as harmonious, "Lord Xie wants to stay for dinner?" ”

Xie Chongning raised his eyes and glanced at the sky, "No, it's not early, I'm leaving." ”

Mu Yu sent him all the way to the gate of the Hou Mansion, and just happened to bump into Mu Heyun who got down from the carriage, Mu Yu didn't dare to look up at his father, only to hear the people around him say in a deep and distant voice, "Father-in-law." ”

Mu Heyun was like a fish in his throat, "The two of you are not married yet, what are you called father-in-law?" ”

"The rumor is still young, so there is no need to worry about getting married." Xie Chongning calmly coped.

These words sounded in Mu Heyun's ears, but they were naked threats. As long as Xie Chongning proposes to get married, even if he opposes it, he won't be able to make any waves.

The reason why he didn't force him to marry Mu Yu now was just because she was still young, but if Mu Heyun forcibly stopped it, the marriage might not be early.

Mu Heyun coldly waved his sleeves and walked in by Xie Chongning's side,

Why did she think that Xie Chongning waited until this time to go back, just to deliberately call her father "father-in-law"?

However, after Xie Chongning's visit, Mu Heyun no longer stopped her from meeting Xie Chongning, and chose to turn a blind eye.

This time, Mu Yu seriously embroidered a spring flower, and met Xie Chongning in Juxian Pavilion, "Brother Xie, I'll give you a gift." ”

Xie Chongning stared, waiting for Mu Yu to take out his gift.

"I've embroidered a purse these days, it's ugly, I don't know if Brother Xie likes it or not." Xu had the experience of failing for the first time, and Mu Yu felt that the golden spring flowers he embroidered were much more pleasing to the eye, at least he could see what it was.

"Thank you." Xie Chongning glanced at his purse, and his lukewarm hand gave Mu Yu's gift and hung it on his waist.

Although Mu Yu had long thought that when Xie Chongning received her gift, there would be no change, but she still felt a sense of loss.

Xu is to create opportunities for Xie Chongning and Mu Yu, Mu Yu has not seen Fang Xiao for a long time, and there is no such noisy person by her side, when she and Xie Chongning are alone, she always feels a little embarrassed, "Brother Xie, why haven't you seen Shizi for a long time?" ”

"Miss Mu, are you missing me?" Fang Xiao narrowed his narrow peach blossom eyes, unceremoniously lifted his white robe, and sat opposite Mu Yu, and today is not only Fang Xiao, but also the king of Anping, Qin Xu.

When Mu Yu saw Qin Xu, he remembered what Xie Chongning said on the day of the emperor's wedding, and he couldn't help but feel a little constrained. "Shizi is joking."

"See, the two matchmakers are done, and there is no use value for them." Fang Xiao patted Qin Xu's waist and said teasingly.

Qin Xu covered his heart with one hand and echoed, "Then you are better than me, one of us sings with a red face and the other with a white face, all good things are done by you, and the things that offend people are mine." ”

Mu Yu was puzzled, what were these two people talking about singing and harmonizing? She seems to be missing something? Fang Xiao intended to match herself and Xie Chongning, she knew, and Qin Xu also matched them?

Xie Chongning glanced at Fang Xiao quietly, but Fang Xiao complained to Qin Xu aggrievedly as if he had received a warning, "Look at it, look at it, he is unloading the mill and killing the donkey." ”

Qin Xu laughed twice with Fang Xiao, took out a handkerchief, and stuffed it into Fang Xiao's hand, "Come, don't cry, wipe your tears." ”

The two sang and harmonized, but there was a tacit understanding, Xu had Qin Xu as a backer, and Fang Xiao chose to ignore Xie Chongning's warning.

"Miss Mu, if you get married, you must not forget us who have paid so much at that time." Qin Xu said to Mu Yu with a smile.
