Mu Qingyan just fell to the ground, raised her eyes and looked into the distance, only to see a tall and straight figure walking towards her. He was dressed in a black silk collared robe, with silver threads woven with more than an inch of silver on the collar and cuffs. A plain white silk undershirt, black satin light boots, and a belt of the same color is hooked and buckled by a white jade openwork flying goose wearing flower belt. On the belt, a palm-sized white jade openwork flying goose pendant is hung with tassels; A flying goose hairpin tied its hair.

The three pieces of jade, regardless of the texture and style, are exactly the same, delicate and smooth, and the carving is extremely fine.

Mu Qinghan followed behind his personal servant, listening to the wind.

Without waiting for Mo Qinghan to walk in front of him, Mu Qingyan rushed in the direction he came from, holding his arms and coquettishly: "Brother Han, I'm back!" ”

Mo Qinghan caught her, stretched out his hand and gently grabbed her and let go, and said dotingly: "Go in first, Aunt Fu has been busy since last night, all for you!" As he spoke, he tapped his finger on Mu Qingyan's forehead.

"There's Aunt Laofu!" Mu Qingyan walked in with a smile.

"Go see Grandpa first, he's worried about you!" Mu Qinghan reminded.

Mu Qingyan paused slightly, turned to the group of people who followed, and said, "You all go back to Lanyan Pavilion to rest, and I'll go to Grandpa's courtyard to eat." ”

A little girl about ten years old, dressed in cinnabar-colored clothes, ran over, pulled Mu Qingyan's sleeves and said, "Miss, I'll go with you!" ”

"Okay, Cinnabar follows, you all go back!" As he spoke, he took Cinnabar's arm and went to Jinlu Garden with Mu Qinghan.

Jinlu Garden is the main courtyard of Shuiyue Villa, with five entrances before and after. In the past, there were some stewards of various industries in Mufu who entered Beijing; The second entrance is a meeting room, where a banquet will be set up on every New Year's Day; The third is the big housekeeper Mu Yuanshan and Aunt Fu's family who live in Mu Mansion. The fourth entrance is a large study room on the left, and a small flower hall on the right; The last entrance is the old lady's quarters, which open to the garden in the backyard.

On the east side of the garden is Se Yun Xuan, which is built on the edge of Ningxing Lake. There is a corridor around the lake, the courtyard on the north side of the lake is Mu Qinghan's Zhiwu Garden, the east side is Mu Qingyan's Lanyan Pavilion, and the west of the lake is the Xiangxi Pavilion of Chuhan.

"Grandpa, I'm back!" Mu Qingyan shouted before entering the door, and there was really no trace of everyone's consciousness.

Mu Zheng was dressed in a black silver silk group celebration long cotton robe, a snow-white middle coat, his hair was curled, and a green jade hairpin was inserted. Sixty miles away, his bones are upright, his face is majestic, and he is awe-inspiring and upright.

He was playing chess against himself, without raising his head.

Mu Qingyan saw that her grandfather ignored her, and knew that she was very angry.

"If you ignore me, then I'll leave?" Mu Qingyan was a little aggrieved, and he was like a child who couldn't get candy to eat.

Mu Zheng still didn't look up, his fingers were on the chess pieces, not knowing what he was thinking.

Mu smiled lightly and sat on the other side drinking tea.

Mu Qingyan raised her legs and walked out, muttering as she walked: "I'll go to play with Grandma Nangong, she must miss me!" ”

"Go back, don't go, my daughter's house is extroverted, hum!" Mu Zheng said angrily. But she muttered in her heart: I don't know how to admit my mistake, and this dead girl doesn't know who to follow.

Mu Qingyan ignored him, but walked very slowly, one step at a time, a few steps, and he hadn't walked out for a long time.

"Yan'er, aren't you thirsty all the way?" Mu Qinghan seemed to coax and persuade.

"It's okay to die of thirst, but it's not worrying anyway. I don't know when I lost my life, how can I have the appearance of everyone's ladies. Mu Zheng still didn't look up, but he could hear that he felt sorry for Mu Qingyan.

Mu Qingyan turned around, walked to the chess table in two steps, and overturned the chessboard with one hand. Then he squeezed into the chair where Mu Zheng was sitting, squeezed three times and squeezed two, and only then did he squeeze and sit down: "Am I your own granddaughter?" ”

"Of course not, I picked you up from Zhongshan!" Mu Zheng was so angry that he blew his beard and glared at him, and denied it loudly.

Mu Qingyan went to pull Mu Zheng's beard with a move of 'dragon catcher', and Mu Zheng made a move of 'cloud hand', which was easily resolved. Mu Qingyan made another move 'draw the ground as a prison', and Mu Zheng made a move 'golden cicada out of the shell' and left the chair, looking at her angrily and funny.

Mu Qingyan picked up a snow porcelain tea cup on the table at random, and Mu Qinghan poured her half a cup of tea. The best white tea, but the taste is slightly heavier, and she is quite disgusted.

Mu Zheng had no choice, so he walked to the other side and sat down.

Mu Qinghan smiled and poured half of his original cup and placed it respectfully in front of him.

Mu Yuanshan, the chief butler, came in and said happily: "Old lady, young owner, young lady, let's eat!"

Mu Qingyan got up and reached out to help Mu Zheng.

Mu Zheng didn't refuse, so he got up with her hand, walked first, and went to the front to eat.

As soon as Mu Zheng sat down, Mu Qinghan and Mu Qingyan didn't wait to sit down, and a person blew in like a gust of wind.

"Yan'er, you're back! Zhongshan has been gone for many days, is there any fun in winter? "Nangong Yin is here.

He greeted Mu Zheng and Mu Qinghan respectively: "Hello Grandpa Mu, hello Brother Han!" ”

"Brother Yin, I'm here to recuperate. Besides, in winter, the mountains are full of snow, and it is strangely cold, and I recited the scriptures in the Broken Sky Temple for a month, and I didn't go anywhere. Mu Qingyan bit her lip and frowned, as if she had been wronged.

"Is the boy eating? Sit down and use it together! Mu Zheng greeted, this child has been liked since he was a child, unlike his own grandson, who has a ghost in his belly and looks cold and difficult to get close to.

"Sister Magpie, fill in a pair of chopsticks for Young Master Yin." Mu Qinghan said politely to the old lady's eldest maid.

Nangong Yin sat down next to Mu Qingyan, looked at her face distressedly, and frowned: "Why did you lose the smoke so much?" ”

Aunt Fu commanded the girls to bring all the dishes to the table like water, and Nangong Yin was not polite, and she put some of the things she loved to eat in the bowl in front of her. Only then did he raise his head and say, "Grandpa Mu eats, Brother Han eats." Seeing Old Lady Mu start, he also moved.

Aunt Fu came in, stretched out her hand and pinched Mu Qingyan's face, and said distressedly: "Miss is very thin, eat more supplements." As he spoke, he took a bowl of crucian carp soup and gave it to Mu Qingyan, and said with doting eyes: "I stewed for two hours, and only put a few slices of ginger, you can taste it." ”

Mu Qingyan is very picky about eating.

"This crucian carp soup, only Aunt Fu stewed in the whole world I love to drink!" Mu Qingyan picked up the small spoon and took a few sips, and praised sincerely.

Mu Yuanshan poured wine for the old lady and Mu Qinghan and the young master Yin, and the best peach blossoms were drunk.

Mu Qingyan took a sip from the old lady's cup, frowned, and said entangledly: "The name is elegant, but this wine is so unpleasant, it's just that the smoke and wind dew can win my heart." ”

Mu Zheng looked at her lively appearance and smiled very comfortably.

Mu Qinghan smiled faintly, didn't speak, and ate by himself.

After finishing the meal, the magpie washed his hands and made tea again.

"Grandpa, I asked Grandma Nangong for a scripture from the old monk of Shattered Sky Temple, and I went? Mu Qingyan pulled Mu Zheng's sleeve, and the little baby generally had a discussion with him.

"Well, go ahead, don't bully the boy." Mu Zheng admonished once, turned his head to look at Mu Qinghan, "Han'er, you can go too, what should you be busy with, I'll go to the pavilion to disperse." ”

The three of them went out of Jinlu Garden together. There are already glazed glass and cinnabar outside, as well as Nangong Yin's personal big girl Xiangrong and Xinrong and the little maid Wujin; When they saw the three of them come out, they all gathered around.

"Yan'er, don't bother Grandma Nangong for too long, come back early." Mu Qinghan instructed.

"I know Brother Han!" Mu Qingyan responded obediently.

Mu Qinghan listened to his sister's agreement, nodded to Nangong Yin, and walked out with Tingfeng first.

Mu Qingyan looked at the scriptures held in Liuli's hand and asked, "Liuli, did you send the snacks for eating Jinxiang?" ”。

"Miss Hui, I have already sent it, and I have handed it over to the little maid to carry it with you, I think I am waiting at the door!" Liuli's voice is crisp, the same year as Linglong, but she is methodical and not as impulsive as Linglong.

Mu Qingyan looked back at Nangong Yin: "Brother Yin, let's go!" Without waiting for Nangong Yin to answer, he walked out of the courtyard first.

Nangong Yin followed behind her, and all the maids also followed out of Shuiyue Villa.

Yijian Villa and Shuiyue Villa are close to each other, which is still bigger than Shuiyue Villa, and they also sit in the north and face south.

The old lady of Nangong likes to be quiet and has been practicing Buddha for many years.

Yaoyue Garden is in the easternmost part of Yijian Villa and is relatively quiet. As soon as Mu Qingyan and Nangong Yin arrived outside the gate of the courtyard, the maid on the second gate of the old lady's courtyard looked at the person who came and hurriedly reported to the inside.

The eldest girl Biliu came out, opened the cotton curtain and let Mu Qingyan and Nangong Yin enter the flower hall, and reported inside: "Miss Yan and the eldest young master are here." ”

"The old lady has just fallen asleep, Miss Yan, please sit down and have a cup of tea first!" Mu Qingyan often comes, and the maids here don't treat her as an outsider, so they make tea and bring it up, and put down a few refreshments.

Mu Qingyan and Nangong Yin sat down, and Cinnabar asked the old lady to give the snacks she brought to the old lady's housekeeper, and they all withdrew, for fear of making noise until the old lady took a nap.

"Is the cigarette girl coming?" A joyful voice came from the inner room.

Mu Qingyan stood up and walked to the inner room, and an old woman from Zhou Zheng helped an old lady with exquisite clothes to come out. Mu Qingyan hurriedly took a few steps forward to take over and help: "Didn't grandma fall asleep and was quarreled with by me?" ”

"I'm old, I can't sleep well and I'm always tired." The old lady patted the back of Mu Qingyan's hand and spoke affectionately.

"Grandma, last time you said that you wanted to break the heart sutra hand-copied by the empty temple, I grinded the old monk for many days, and finally got two copies, you can take a look!" Mu Qingyan offered a treasure like a scripture and asked the old lady for credit.

"You ghost girl, you can make my old lady happy the most." The old lady of Nangong happily held the scriptures, and she loved it like a treasure.

"Whatever thank you want, grandma will give it to you!" The old lady doted. She carefully flipped through a few pages, and saw that the handwriting on the scripture was the same size, clean and solemn, and it was not the handwriting of ordinary people. She said happily: "I'm afraid that Hui Yan is scared by you, and then be careful that he doesn't let you enter the temple gate." ”

"This time I was kicked out by him!" Mu Qingyan pursed his lips and sighed: "I really can't go back recently, he will probably dismantle my bones!" ”

The old lady smiled, took the hand of the light cigarette, and sat down on the beauty couch together.

"After more than a month, I think it's a great deal to get sick. Seeing that the end of the year is approaching, you should also take care of your body. The old lady Nangong was concerned, "The illness has gone to the thread, and it has become more and more light, alas! ”

Nangong Yin kept smiling on her lips, and her eyes were full of love for Mu Qingyan.

Xiangrong, who was standing behind him, had a touch of pain in his eyes, and thought faintly: I am nineteen years old, and the young master's heart for Miss Yan, I am afraid that there is no place for her, and she has married in the future, where should she go?

Xinrong is sixteen years old, and the girl is pregnant with spring. The delusion of his own young master has long been there, how can the young master only care about currying favor with Mu Qingyan, and explicitly hinted many times, the young master does not have evil thoughts. She didn't dare to be disrespectful to Mu Qingyan, and the contempt and contempt in her eyes were never less. The corners of his mouth sneered slightly: When you are accepted by the young master, see how arrogant you are.

Mu Qingyan has long known the thoughts of these two maids, and he doesn't take it to heart. There are always three wives and four beautiful concubines for the young master, and it is not strange that there are a few intercourse before the wedding, but the Mu family has always been not allowed to take concubines by one wife, and she has not entered the door yet, so she can't control his family's affairs.

Nangong Yin is a marriage contract that she made as soon as she was born.

Yijian Villa has been inherited for a hundred years, and it is the first in the world in terms of weapon manufacturing.

In the generation of Mu Zheng's parents, the Mu family moved from Phoenix City to Linchuan, built Shuiyue Villa, and lived next to Nangong Mansion. Back then, the Mu family's parents asked Mu to marry Nangong Yingyue, the young lady of the Nangong family, with a pair of dragon and phoenix jade pei, and the Nangong family took the heirloom Qiankun bow and the anti-soul arrow as a letter, and they were happy to get married.

Mu Zheng went to the battlefield at the age of fifteen and left home for many years without returning. Under the exchanges of the nobles of the capital family, Nangong Yingyue and the fifth prince Chu Jing have been in love for a long time; Chu Jing was infatuated, if he was not Nangong Yingyue, he would not marry, Mu Zheng returned from the battlefield, and personally talked to Mu Zheng.

At that time, it was a storm in the city, and everyone knew it.
