Chapter 20: Sister-in-law

"Knock Knock"

"Miss, the eldest young master has come to see you."

He Yue's voice sounded outside the door, and the dyed jade disappeared in an instant, Mu Qing found a handkerchief to cover the medicinal materials on the table, and then went over to open the door.

Mu Ye was carrying a large bag and a small bag in his hand, with a smile on his lips, and when he saw Mu Qing crashing into his eyes with a beautiful face, he immediately hugged the person into his arms: "Great, you can finally show your true face!" ”

After parting, he took Mu Qing's face and looked at it carefully, with a pride in his eyes: "I know that my sister will never be as puscess-covered as they say, my sister is a unique beauty in the world." ”

Mu Qing smiled a little helplessly: "Brother, what are you doing so excited, I was also very good-looking when I was young, and you haven't seen it." ”

"How can it be the same, you have been criticized for so many years, although I live outside, I also know it, and now I am naturally excited to see you like this." Mu Ye replied as a matter of course, and as he spoke, he put all the big bags and small bags in his hand on the table.

"It's all the best jade cream, girls' homes, the face is the most important, you must take good care of it in the future, and you must never become what it used to be."

Mu Qing's heart was moved, and she nodded with tears in her eyes: "I know, thank you, thank you really brother." ”

In fact, in the past ten years, although Mu Ye has been outside, she has never stopped giving her small gifts, but most of them have been quietly detained by Leng Qiyan.

The brother and sister exchanged pleasantries for a while, and He Yue knocked on the door again: "Miss, Miss Zhou is waiting for you outside, saying that she apologized for what happened a few days ago." ”

Mu Qing wanted to refuse, but glanced at his brother who was sitting next to him, and changed his tone: "Let Sister Zhou come in, don't tell him that my brother is also here, I, I want to surprise Sister Zhou." ”

"Qing'er, you are all boudoir girls, I'd better go first." Mu Ye got up and prepared to leave

Mu Qing grabbed his sleeve robe: "My brother and Sister Zhou have a marriage contract, so what can I do if I meet each other." ”

Today, he kept blinking and selling cuteness, grabbing his arm and shaking it gently.

Mu Ye hesitated, and after a while, He Yue led people in.

Zhou Yingrong walked in with Nana, and caught a glimpse of Mu Ye who was sitting on the side, paused, and withdrew his gaze a little unnaturally: "It turns out that the eldest young master is also there." ”

Mu Qing stood up with a smile and pulled Zhou Yingrong to sit down opposite Mu Ye: "Sister Zhou, how about this surprise enough?" You and your brother haven't seen each other for more than ten years, how are you doing, are you still happy? ”

Zhou Yingrong lowered her eyes, and her curled and slender eyelashes covered all the thoughts in her eyes: "Sister Qing, don't talk nonsense." ”

There is not the slightest affection between the words.

Mu Ye was also sitting on pins and needles, his eyes only stayed on Zhou Yingrong's face for a moment, then he quickly moved away, got up and walked out: "It's me who is abrupt and delays your speech, I'll go first." ”

Mu Qing didn't stop it, raised her eyebrows and teased: "My good sister-in-law, you see my brother is embarrassed, I really don't know what my aunt thinks, and I haven't mentioned your marriage until now." ”

Zhou Yingrong pinched his cuffs hard, and the anger in his eyes flashed: "If you are talking nonsense, I will leave." ”

Mu Qing tilted her head: "Sister Zhou doesn't like my brother?" ”

Zhou Yingrong stood up, ashamed and annoyed, her cheeks flushed slightly: "Sister Qing doesn't want to get married, I mention these things at every turn, I came this time to apologize for the last banquet, and I almost forgot what you said." ”

Mu Qing smiled and bent her eyes, looking unpretentious: "I don't remember what Sister Zhou said." ”

Zhou Yingrong's face relaxed: "It's okay if you don't mind, these snacks are made by me, you can taste them, if you like me, I'll make them for you next time, I'll go first." ”

"Heyue, send a good one to my sister-in-law." Mu Qing got up to send him off.

Zhou Yingrong's pace paused obviously, and then quickened his pace to leave.

Mu Qing's smile faded.

She can now be sure that Zhou Yingrong really doesn't want to marry her brother.

The next day, Leng Qiyan was ill for a few days, and this morning she had the spirit, so Mu Qing had to go to the province in the morning and dusk.

Muqi and Zhou Yingrong have already arrived, Zhou Yao was seriously injured last time, and he has not recovered so far and has not come.

Several people saluted one after another, Leng Qiyan seemed to be in a good mood, and deliberately left a few people to have breakfast together.

Mu Qing ate defenselessly, as long as Leng Qiyan was not stupid, he would never poison the breakfast he ate together.

Leng Qiyan only moved a few chopsticks before stopping, his eyes lingered, and he couldn't help but stare at Mu Qing again and again.

This worldly face is really seven or eight points like Leng Huayu in her memory, but in fact, when she is not smiling, she is simply the same person as her.

The heart could not be suppressed, and there were bursts of panic rising inexorably, and the overlapping hands kept tightening.

"Auntie." Zhou Yingrong's soft voice sounded in her ears: "What are you thinking?" ”

The eyes of the two met for a moment, and Leng Qiyan had a gentle and dignified smile on her face: "Qing'er has now regained her appearance, and her age has arrived, it's time to discuss marriage, your parents are not there, and I, as your aunt, should also do it for you." ”

Mu Qing choked on a mouthful of porridge, covering her mouth and coughing constantly.

She only tested Zhou Yingrong yesterday, and today Leng Qiyan aimed at her, she must have done it!

Mu Qi glanced at her with extreme disdain: "She is such a waste, which high-ranking family is willing to ask for it?" I think it's better to give it to any family as a concubine. ”

"Muzi, don't talk nonsense." Such vicious words were only exchanged for a reprimand that Leng Qiyan was not light or heavy.

Mu Qing looked at Mu Qi coldly, and replied unceremoniously: "Auntie, my eldest brother hasn't gotten married yet, how can I get my turn?" ”

Zhou Yingrong said without changing his face: "Sister Qing showed her strength in the Huaiyin Palace, I don't know how much favor she has caused, if you don't seize this opportunity in time, maybe there will be no better young talents in the future." ”

Mu Qing put aside her chopsticks and looked at her coldly: "This is an ancient rite for the young and orderly, I don't dare to break it, aunt, I swear here today that if my brother doesn't marry one day, I won't marry one day, lest my parents under Jiuquan also scold me for not being filial." ”

Leng Qiyan has always been invisible, but when she mentioned her parents, her face sank involuntarily: "Mu Qing, are you using your sister and brother-in-law to pressure me?" ”

"I have always been the most filial to my aunt, and my aunt also loves me the most, how can I think so." Mu Qing touched her nose, her face full of innocence.

Leng Qiyan only felt a breath hit the cotton, and secretly gritted his teeth, only helpless on his face: "Go back, I still have a headache and have to rest." ”
