Chapter 7: This guy holds a grudge
The Liu family was originally a scholarly family, and the ancestors had a second-class member, and they were also in the limelight in their early years, but later because the clansmen committed an accident, the family fell into the middle of the road, and the Liu family married the Su family but was widowed early, so after the Liu family had an accident, the Liu family mother and daughter were driven out by the Su family with an excuse.
Because the Liu family rescued himself, he was married by Mu Yuanshan as his stepfamily soon after, and everyone had to praise their good lives when they saw it, and Su Yan also followed the Mu family, but unfortunately he was never able to enter the Mu family tree, but even so, Su Yan's food and clothing in the Mu family were all compared to the concubine, and she was never treated badly.
It's just that in terms of identity alone, Su Yan's background is indeed not high, and she has always been kind to people, and everyone in the house knows that she is generous, but today she treats Qinghe so lightly, no wonder Qinghe feels strange.
"It's nothing, it's just that she wanted a painting in my room, and I didn't give it."
After listening to Mu Chonglan's explanation, Qinghe's eyes widened: "Miss, you have always been good with Miss Su, why don't you even want to paint a painting today." ”
"I'll give it to someone else."
"Permission to someone else?"
"Hmm."
"Who is it?"
"You don't have to ask." Mu Chonglan picked up the teacup, her eyes narrowed slightly.
When Huo Zhaoming, the left minister, was a painting idiot, especially Ailian and the crane, in his previous life, Xiao Xiantang relied on the Thousand Cranes to enter the eyes of Huo Zhaoming, and since then he has been on the rise, so if nothing else, Xiao Xiantang will ask himself about the whereabouts of this Thousand Cranes soon after.
In her previous life, she just told the Thousand Crane Picture that she was in the Lu family, and it took Xiao Xiantang a lot of effort to get the Thousand Crane Picture back, this time she simply held this Thousand Crane Picture in her own hands and waited until the right time to take it out, so even if Xiao Xiantang developed in the future, she would always have to remember some of the good things she had to offer.
As for going to present a painting by himself, Mu Chonglan didn't think about it, but he just thought about it, what kind of self he was, so how could Xiao Xiantang's career be just the credit of a painting?
"You go to the treasury now, take the mutton fat jade Buddha and send it to the Qingyou Courtyard, and if the person in charge wants to ask, you will say that I let you take it." Mu Chonglan commanded.
That quiet courtyard is Su Yan's residence, although Mu Chonglan doesn't plan to give Su Yan the Thousand Crane Picture, but sisters, she can't make Su Yan embarrassed for a birthday gift.
Qinghe has followed Mu Chonglan for so many years, so he naturally understood Mu Chonglan's plan, so he smiled and said, "Miss treats Miss Su really well, better than her own sisters." ”
"Don't be poor, go and come back quickly."
Qinghe said "hey" and walked out, and after she left, Mu Chonglan glanced at the hour, then called the bamboo snow in the yard and went to the front yard.
"Daddy." Mu Chonglan poked in from outside the study, pink shirt, bright eyes and bright teeth, and a swaying step on her head, people are more beautiful than flowers, don't say that the first beauty in Qingzhou, even the princess in the imperial capital is just such a posture.
Mu Yuanshan saw the pearl in his palm running like this, and his eyes narrowed when he smiled, but he didn't want Mu Chonglan to catch a glimpse of Xiao Xiantang with a pestle on the side as soon as he entered the door, his steps paused, and his face changed.
When she arrived in the front yard, she heard that Xiao Xiantang was called to the study by Mu Yuanshan, but she didn't feel that there was anything wrong, but the first and second class always couldn't wait for their son-in-law to come back, so she thought about it, and the result was good, her father was giving the future king with a different surname.
"Ahem!" Mu Yuanshan coughed, and Mu Chonglan came back to his senses with a smile on his face. "Daddy, it's long overdue for a banquet in front of you, just waiting for you to speak, it's better for you to hide here and whisper to my husband."
When he said this, Mu Chonglan immediately glanced at Zhu Xue, Zhu Xue was also a clever person, and hurriedly moved a stool to Xiao Xiantang, seeing that Xiao Xiantang didn't sit down, and didn't even seem to see that a stool had been added, so he looked at Mu Chonglan in embarrassment.
When Mu Chonglan saw this situation, he couldn't wait to slap himself, knowing that his family looked down on Xiao Xiantang, and he actually left Xiao Xiantang alone in front, this is not sending meat to the tiger's mouth...... Phew, it would be nice if he Xiao Xiantang was really a piece of meat.
Alas, there is a saying that it is better to bully the white-haired than to bully the poor youth, and his father has been shrewd all his life, why is he confused in this matter?
Mu Chonglan was very anxious, she knew that Xiao Xiantang had a grudge, but she couldn't think of how to resolve it, when she was distressed, the Liu family came, it turned out that the Liu family saw that Mu Chonglan, who had come to look for someone, didn't go back, so she came to take a look.
Seeing her coming, Mu Yuanshan couldn't continue to control Xiao Xiantang, so a few people went to the front hall.
Mu Yuanshan is the concubine of the branch of the Mu family in the imperial capital, so although Mu Chonglan bears the name of the nine girls of the Mu family, she is the only daughter in the house, because Mu Yuanshan has no concubine, and the eldest son Mu Chongguang is not married at the border, so there are not many people in the Mu Mansion, and the banquet is scattered The whole eight tables, only one table is his own family, and all the people next to him are related and not very close.
"I can't see that this Xiao family elder is still a person who knows how to hurt people." During the banquet, Liu suddenly said like this, and Mu Chonglan, who was in a daze, suddenly became the focus of the banquet, and blinked his eyes a little blankly.
It turned out that after the banquet, she had been absent-minded because she was thinking about how to explain the slackness, Xiao Xiantang saw this situation, so she helped her spread some dishes into the bowl, and thoughtfully poured a cup of tea and put it in her hand, which led to Liu's sentence.
Not only that, but when they heard Liu's words, the two of them also looked at each other, and their eyes met, Xiao Xiantang lowered his eyelids first, looking not arrogant or impatient.
Mu Chonglan almost cried out without being aggrieved, and said in his heart, why didn't he see anyone with a bad stomach, but they all took him as the twenty-four filial husbands?
But aggrieved to aggrieved, Mu Chonglan didn't have the courage to say it, so he could only continue to bow his head and poke the rice grains in the bowl with chopsticks, as if it was Xiao Xiantang's head.
Seeing her like this, Xiao Xiantang's ink-colored eyes were stained with a layer of confusion, but he didn't ask, just watched quietly, and didn't know what he was thinking.
After the banquet, according to the rules, Mu Chonglan should immediately go back to Xiao's house with Xiao Xiantang, but looking at Xiao Yuanshan's awkward expression that was obviously reluctant and not straightforward, she stayed to accompany Mu Yuanshan to say some words, and when she said goodbye to Mu Yuanshan and walked out, she was happy and sad in her heart.
I am glad to learn that my brother-in-law Mu Chongguang has been promoted to lieutenant more than a month ago, although he is only a seventh grade, but at this time Mu Chongguang is still young, and his future future is limitless.
The sad thing is that the companion is like a tiger, if everything develops as in the previous life, even if Mu Chongguang can be promoted to the position of general, I am afraid that it will be difficult to escape the fate of sending the northern frontier.
