Mrs. Xiao looked at Li Mumu's saluting movements very standard, and she was even more satisfied at the moment, she was a well-informed girl.

"Hurry up!" Mrs. Xiao stepped forward and took Li Mumu's hand, "I've heard of Miss Li for a long time!" I just don't know what your name is? ”

"Madame just call me Mu Mu!" Li Mumu is not used to being too close to the living, and he doesn't like to be held by others.

But it was Xiao Yan's mother, and Li Mumu endured it.

"Mu Mu? That's a nice name! How old are you today? Who else is there in the family? Mrs. Xiao asked familiarly.

"It's been sixteen weeks since the New Year! There is also a mother and a younger brother in the family! Because it was Xiao Yan's family, Li Mumu felt that there was nothing to hide.

"Is it okay?" Mrs. Xiao asked again.

Li Mumu glanced at Xiao Yan, "Also... Not yet! ”

"Then you..."Mrs. Xiao wanted to ask again, but Xiao Yan snatched Li Mumu away from her!

"That's a lot of questions! I'm going to be late for the party! After speaking, no matter how Li Mumu struggled, he just didn't let go of her, and pulled her all the way to the palace.

"You kid, what's wrong with me asking a few words?! Don't you want to be so precious! ”

Mrs. Xiao watched Xiao Yan pull Li Mumu away, and shouted behind her dissatisfied.

If it weren't for Xiao Shuntian to stop him, I'm afraid I would catch up again!

Li Mumu glanced at Xiao Yan embarrassedly, she never thought that a person with such a character as Xiao Yan would have such a person... Such a mother-in-law who is so out of character.

"Your mother... Your mother's personality is really easy-going~" Li Mumu thought for a long time before squeezing out such a sentence.

"Hmm. She likes you! If you're okay, you can spend more time with her! ”

“？” What does Xiao Yan mean by this? Is this a confession of their relationship with his parents?

Li Mumu thought of this, in addition to being a little nervous, he also felt a trace of sweetness!

However, Xiao Yan just told himself that it was a little too early to see his parents or something!

Li Mumu, who had never been in love in his previous life and in this life, suddenly didn't know how to deal with this problem, and he felt that it was more difficult than bandaging more than a dozen people at the same time.

was about to enter the inner palace, Xiao Yan stopped and waited for Xiao Shuntian and his wife behind him.

"After entering the palace for a while, you will follow my mother! Men and women sit separately at the banquet. She'll be there for you to mention something. ”

Xiao Yan explained to Li Mumu.

"Take care of her!" When Xiao Shuntian and his wife came to him, Xiao Yan and Mrs. Xiao threw down these four words and left with Xiao Shuntian.

"I really have a daughter-in-law and forget my mother!" Mrs. Xiao muttered.

It was a little embarrassing to be alone with Mrs. Xiao, and when she heard Mrs. Xiao's words at this time, Li Mumu couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into.

Of course, Mrs. Xiao also saw Mu Mu's embarrassment, she stepped forward and said to Li Mumu: "Good boy, don't be afraid!" Just follow me obediently after entering the palace! ”

"Yes!" Li Mumu lowered his head and responded.

"What are you doing so nervous~ I won't eat you again! Besides, I scared you away, where can I compensate Yan'er for a daughter-in-law? ”

Oh, my God! Who's going to save me! Li Mumu shouted in his heart.

In her cognition, aren't the wives of ancient officials supposed to be dignified and virtuous in their own identities! Even if you know the relationship between her and Xiao Yan, shouldn't you tell yourself with a black face that your identities are very different, and there is no result.

But what the hell is going on with Xiao Yan in front of him?! not only shows that she likes her very much, but also dares to say anything, as if she is already her prospective daughter-in-law.

I can't catch the words of Mrs. Xiao's big Buddha as a modern person.

Li Mumu could only continue to follow Mrs. Xiao as a quail.

Back garden

Everyone saw Mrs. Xiao leading a girl in, and they were all curious about her identity!

But the identity of Mrs. Xiao is not something that everyone can talk about casually, so only a few wives of civil officials walked up to talk to Mrs. Xiao.

Seeing that everyone asked, Mrs. Xiao also enthusiastically introduced Li Mumu!

Of course, she won't really jump out of it and say that Li Mumu is her daughter-in-law, she introduced Li Mumu to everyone as the hero of this treatment of the epidemic, and the emperor specially rewarded her for coming to the banquet.

After hearing this, everyone said hello to Li Mumu because of Mrs. Xiao's face, but Li Mumu could see that they all looked down on their identities.

That's right! This is what Li Mumu thinks is the attitude of normal officials and wives when they see themselves.

It's not that Li Mumu looks down on herself, but her identity is really not worth mentioning.

Li Mumu could see everyone's contempt for him, how could Mrs. Xiao not see it.

But she didn't care, and still took Li Mumu around the garden, while secretly observing Li Mumu.

She was very close to her just now, but she didn't please and flatter herself, and she didn't show a proud look when she saw everyone, and she didn't show frustration or shame when she saw everyone's contempt for her.

Good conduct, a child who has seen the market! This is Mrs. Xiao's final evaluation of Li Mumu.

......

Xiao Yan followed Xiao Shuntian to the place where the civil and military officials rested.

Xiao Shuntian also returned to Beijing from the border pass in the past two years! Everyone is speculating about the identity of the young man next to him.

"Brother Xiao, are you here?" Qin Jinyan saw Xiao Yan walk in, so he came over to greet him.

"I've seen General Xiao!" Qin Jinyan also saluted Xiao Shuntian beside Xiao Yan.

Xiao Shuntian also saw Qin Jinyan for the first time, and when he saw that he knew Xiao Yan, he looked at Xiao Yan.

"This is Qin Xiang's son, Qin Jinyan!"

Xiao Shuntian nodded at him after hearing this.

When everyone saw Qin Jinyan taking the initiative to greet Xiao Yan, they all guessed that this was the youngest son of Xiao Shuntian's family.

Xiao Yan has followed Xiao Shuntian to the border since he was ten years old, and he didn't come back when Xiao Shuntian returned to Beijing to report on his work two years ago!

So it's normal for people not to know him.

Xiao Yan is twenty this year, and the whole person looks heroic, and many low-ranking officials are thinking about the possibility of their school-age daughters marrying into the Xiao family.

After all, the Xiao family is not looking for a high-ranking daughter-in-law, everyone knows it.

Xiao Yan has not been in the imperial city for many years, and no one who is familiar with him has stepped forward to talk to him at this time! And Xiao Shuntian's status at this time, no official dares to get too close to him openly!

The father and son of the Xiao family have their own world in this crowd.

"Why didn't you go home these two years?" Xiao Shuntian has asked Xiao Yan this question many times in the past two days, Xiao Yan has found an opportunity to avoid it before, but now he has no way to retreat, Xiao Shuntian seized the opportunity and asked again.

"Just want to go around!" Xiao Yan didn't want to say that Liu Yiyi was chosen by her father for her eldest brother, and she has now given birth to a son for her eldest brother! Is it because I let my eldest brother divorce her by saying it now?

No! Can't say! I will find a chance to make it clear to her that I have no interest in the position of the prince, as long as she lets go.

"Xiao Ying said that you have encountered assassination more than once..."Xiao Ying is Xiao Shuntian's secret guard.

"......" Xiao Yan still didn't say a word.

"What the hell happened to you? Can't even talk about your family? Xiao Shuntian was a little discouraged, this little son followed him, not to mention anything else, this temper twist has been learned ten out of ten!

Xiao Shuntian had the heart to ask again, but the eunuch in the palace came to pass the word, saying that he invited all the adults to the table.
