The voice was low, with a sense of storm that was about to come, which made Xie Xiaoer shrink back very spinelessly, and begged with a cry, "Can you not go?" ”

Before Mu Jingzhu walked into his room, he turned back to him and smiled, "Of course." ”

That smile, although it is not like a woman's allure of the city and the country, is also very charming. But in Xie Xiaoer's eyes, it was the most terrifying beast from underground.

With a sad face and trembling steps, he walked to Mu Jingzhu's room.

Just as he was about to go in, Qu Youying opened the door, poked her head out, and made a mouth seal gesture at him, Xie Xiaoer pointed to the room in embarrassment, indicating that it was not feasible.

Qu Youying immediately made a movement to wipe her neck, which means that if you say it, I will kill you.

Xie Xiaoer, that's a bitterness! The aggrieved swallowed his tears in his stomach, wailing in his heart, why did they quarrel, but he was the one who suffered!

After Qu Youying saw him enter, she closed the door and freshened up and went to sleep.

She wasn't worried that Xie Xiaoer would tell the truth, even if she did, she didn't feel anything, but when she saw Xie Xiaoer's deflated appearance, she couldn't help but slaughter him again, so that she would feel a lot more comfortable.

With this comfort, she lay on the bed, trying not to think about seeing Mu Jingzhu in Yirong Yuan, and slowly fell asleep.

The next day, she was woken up by Yun Shu, got up to freshen up, and then prepared to go to Shuifu.

She nodded, after washing, she changed her appearance, and when everything was finished, she went to find Xie Xiaoer.

At that time, Xie Xiaoer got up, his eyes were blank, and he looked very aggrieved.

"What's wrong with you? Did you play late last night? ”

"Play? You're embarrassed to say it! It's not for you that I've become a gas bag. ”

Xie Xiaoer was a bitter person, nagging, and finally was kicked by Qu Youying to freshen up.

After breakfast, they went to visit the old lady, and Mu Jingzhu and Qianxi also followed.

Along the way, no one said a word, and Qu Youying kept her distance from Mu Jingzhu as always, showing her cousin's identity and sticking Xie Xiaoer firmly.

"Cousin, are you hot? Why so much sweat? Come, I'll rub it for you. ”

got out of the carriage, Qu Youying held Xie Xiaoer's arm with one hand, and diligently wiped his sweat with the other, so scared that Xie Xiaoer almost fell down.

"You're almost done, didn't you see that Jing Zhu was going to kill my gaze!"

"What are you afraid of, he won't really do anything to you." Qu Youying wiped his sweat with a smile, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Did you hear the news of Shui Linze, what happened yesterday, what happened later?" ”

"As you expected, early this morning, word came that he had been carried back to the house."

"Poofha......" Qu Youying covered her mouth with a handkerchief and couldn't help laughing.

"You're pretty much there, he's going to get you in trouble."

"What are you afraid of, don't you still have you!"

The two of you said one sentence to me, and under the recommendation of the subordinates, they entered the water mansion.

At that time, in addition to their family, several people with status came, including Ji Wang Jiang Tong.

But Qu Youying looked left and right, and she didn't see King Yi for a long time.

"Why don't you say King Yi hasn't come until now? The old lady's birthday banquet is almost soon. ”

"With his identity, he must not appear until the same day, otherwise he will be there early."

"But this time, Shuifu is obviously congratulating the old lady on her birthday, but in fact, he is choosing a candidate for the crown princess, so he doesn't know how to come earlier, choose a target, and start with it!"

"I don't know, anyway, King Yi and King Ji are two big Buddhas, you must not have anything to do with them anymore."

Xie Xiaoer was afraid that this little ancestor would get into trouble, and he would be unlucky with him when the time came, so he must hold people down this time.

A few people sat down on the chairs, and after greeting for a while, someone said that the old lady had arrived.

There are very few female dependents in Shuifu, but all of them are beauties.

Qu Youying had seen the portrait before, but now that she wanted to see people, she was still a little curious, so she stretched her neck and looked out.

From afar, I saw a graceful and elegant old woman, sitting in a wheelchair, pushed by four beautiful women, all the way to the hall.

"Look, that's the old lady, the woman in red on her left is the daughter of the eldest master, the eldest lady is flawless, the one in yellow is the daughter of the second master, and the second lady is Shui Wuyue. The two on the right are Shui Si's younger sisters, the thinner one is called Shui Qinyu, and the one who looks timid and afraid is Shui Junyu. Among them, Shui Wufang and Shui Junyu are concubines, and the other two are concubines. ”

Regarding the matter of Shuifu, Xie Xiaoer was very clear, so he explained it to Qu Youying and others before everyone came in.

"That's the old lady?"

Unlike others' curiosity about the four daughters of Shuifu, Qu Youying's eyes were all focused on the old lady's face.

"That's right. What's wrong? ”

Xie Xiaoer turned around and saw that Qu Youying's face was not very good-looking, and even Mu Jingzhu on the side asked in a low voice, "What did you find?" ”

"Nothing."

Qu Youying retracted her gaze, used a smile to hide the surprise in her eyes, and subconsciously tightened her staggered hands, when the old lady came in, she still couldn't help but take a closer look.

Then my heart was full of doubts.

Because this old lady is exactly the same as her face after painting the skin of the carrion corpse.

So after some politeness, she asked Xie Xiaoer in a low voice, "This old lady, do you have a sister?" ”

"The old lady was the only daughter of Zhou Ge Lao back then, how could she have a sister? But you, what's wrong? ”

Qu Youying didn't answer and asked, "What's the matter with the old lady's legs?" ”

"It is said that decades ago, because of a fire, it was lame."

"Oh."

Qu Youying nodded, and then drank tea and didn't speak. However, the four young ladies over there, under the guidance of the old lady, greeted everyone one by one.

Especially in front of King Ji, the first three are particularly enthusiastic.

Only the fourth lady, Shui Junyu, was a little timid and didn't dare to approach.

Qu Youying stared at her curiously, and then saw King Ji suddenly wink at her.

Qu Youying thought that Jiang Tong was looking at Shui Junyu, so she didn't care, not to mention, King Ji also praised Shui Junyu and rewarded her with a piece of jade that was worth a lot of money.

But just as Shui Junyu stepped forward to receive the reward, King Ji blinked again.

This time, Qu Youying saw clearly, Jiang Tong was winking at her, and her eyes were full of smiles.

Qu Youying was very puzzled, she touched her face, she was very good at the disguise technique, Jiang Tong couldn't recognize it, so what did he mean by this?

She was a little confused, but several young ladies over there fell their jealousy on Shui Junyu's body together.

The identity of the culprit himself, Jiang Tong did not have a trace of consciousness, and after rewarding one, he didn't say anything, and lowered his head to drink tea.

made the other three ladies very embarrassed, and in the end, Shui Wuze said a few words about the scene, and then the embarrassment was overcome.

Then everyone had lunch together, the old lady was pushed to the table, and found that the fourth son Shui Linze was not seen after a morning of chatting, so he couldn't help asking, "Wuze, where did the Linze people go?" ”

Early this morning, Shui Linze was sent back to Shuifu by Yirongyuan, and many people saw it, but the old lady didn't know, so Shui Wuze couldn't stand in the way of so many people, saying that his brother was not.

Therefore, he had no choice but to say, "It is said that he is not feeling well, so he can't come." ”

"This kid is too disagreeable, the prince is here, how can he refuse on the grounds that he is unwell?" The old lady knocked on the table and said to the grandmother beside her, "Go and call that child to me." ”

"Yes."

Mama bowed down and retreated, but Qu Youying was snickering, she was actually looking forward to Shui Linze's appearance!

"You're welcome, you're welcome, you're a guest, let's eat!" The old lady picked up the tea in front of him and said to King Ji, "Lord, the old man is not good at drinking, so today I will replace the wine with tea and give the prince a glass." ”

"You're polite. Please. ”

Jiang Tong picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp, everyone said this, and the dinner table was happy.

Qu Youying was eating the dishes carelessly, and after a while, she saw Mama coming back in a hurry, bowing her head and saying a few words beside the old lady, and the old lady's face changed.

Jiang Tong saw it and asked with a smile, "Taijun, what's wrong?" ”

He was there, and no one dared to say anything even if he was bored enough to ask curiously.

The old lady was the same, so she had to answer, "I'm sorry, Lord Wang, that child in Lin Ze vomited and diarrhea, and contracted the wind and cold, I'm afraid I won't be able to come, and I ask the prince to forgive me." ”

Jiang Tong smiled generously, "It's okay." ”

After that, it was a boring meal, Qu Youying didn't see a good show, she was a little depressed, and after lunch, she urged Xie Xiaoer to leave.

Xie Xiaoer and the old lady said goodbye, and the old lady sent someone to the door of the water house.

But before they could get into the carriage, a family member blocked Mu Jingzhu's way.

"May I ask if it's Mujing Candle Wood? My family is invited. ”

"Didn't you just see it? What's wrong with that? ”

Qu Youying subconsciously replied, but when Mu Jingzhu looked at her, a rare smile appeared on the tip of her eyebrows.

Qu Youying paused, and the next moment, she turned her head and got into the carriage.

Mu Jingzhu stared at her, not saying a word, not saying anything, and not saying no.

The atmosphere was a little embarrassing for a while, and when the family saw this, they could only say, "Taijun is a little concerned about what happened in the mansion a few days ago, so I want to ask Gongzi to ask about the experience, and I hope Gongzi will not refuse." ”

"Okay."

Mu Jingzhu nodded at Xie Xiaoer, then turned around and followed the family into the Water Mansion.

Xie Xiaoer got into the carriage and went all the way back to Wusupreme.

When they came back, it was just three o'clock in the afternoon, but until the evening, the hour had passed, and Mu Jingzhu did not come back.

Qu Youying was a little worried, but she didn't want people to know that she was worried, so she said that she had eaten too much for dinner and went out for a walk alone.

She slipped all the way to the vicinity of the Water Mansion, where the lantern was lit up, and there were only two people waiting in front of the door, with only a carriage parked on the side.

Presumably the guests in the house have not left.

But there is no Mu Jingzhu in sight.

"Even if it's a question, an afternoon has passed, and it's time to finish asking, right? Where did it go? ”

She muttered, thinking about whether to sneak into the water mansion to look for it, and saw the door of the water mansion open.

She thought it was Mu Jingzhu who came out, but she didn't expect it to be Shui Linze and the scholar.

Shui Linze's face was pale, he wrapped himself tightly in the summer, and his walking posture was also a little funny.

As soon as Qu Youying remembered what happened last night, she had the urge to tease him to see if he was really afraid of women, or if he was pretending.

Just as she was about to walk out, a hand reached behind her back, covered her mouth, and dragged the person into the darkness on the side.
