When Xiao Xiantang came back from outside, it was already the hour of the lamp, Mu Chonglan was sitting at the table with the silk thread pattern comparison, thinking about embroidering a pattern, but he couldn't pick out a suitable silk thread, and the pattern was also selected, which was always unsatisfactory.

"This one is better."

"Huh?"

"This color is better with this suit." Xiao Xiantang stretched out his hand and pointed to a painting of Aoxue Hanmei, the silk thread was very elegant, but he didn't want Mu Chonglan to frown and shake his head: "It's good-looking, but it's a little inappropriate as a birthday gift." ”

Birthday present?

Xiao Xiantang was stunned for a moment, and then looked at the patterns in Mu Chonglan's hand, one was a pine and a cypress, and the other was an immortal crane, and his face was suddenly a little hot.

"Is there anything wrong?"

"Nope." Xiao Xiantang pursed his lips after speaking, he was crazy to think that such a delicate lady would embroider a purse for herself. "By the way, you gave the key to Tan Susu?"

I was still thinking about why Xiao Xiantang was angry again, but when he mentioned Tan Susu, Mu Chonglan pursed his lips: "I didn't give it, it was the old lady who gave it." ”

Didn't she find it troublesome?

Xiao Xiantang heard the diametrically opposite words from Mu Chonglan's mouth and what he heard in the front yard, and his heart suddenly froze, seeing that Mu Chonglan had already chosen the pine and cypress patterns, and he didn't even look at himself, he frowned again: "Do you want to be in charge?" ”

"I don't want to." Mu Chonglan did not hesitate.

Xiao Xiantang was stunned for a moment, and then sneered: "Indeed, the Xiao family's inner house has long been empty, and I can't look down on you." ”

"I didn't mean that." Mu Chonglan's eyelids jumped, she thought that although the Xiao family was a merchant, it was a big business, but she didn't think that the Xiao family had already been strong outside, and it was no wonder that Xiao Xiantang would take risks in his previous life, and let the good young master not do it, and run to mix in something to win the heir, because he had no way to retreat for a long time.

Sighing softly, Mu Chonglan looked at Xiao Xiantang, who was not as weak as the crown, and it was difficult to connect him with the man who was ruining his years in the future. "Xiao Xiantang, what I said yesterday was not a temptation, it was true."

She originally had the intention of waiting for Xiao Xiantang's weak crown to leave, so she naturally didn't have the heart to take charge of the Xiao family's home, the reason why she said it was because she and Xiao Xiantang were in a cooperative relationship, not to mention that she didn't want to be generous for the sake of face, so she told Xiao Xiantang directly, although I really didn't want to, but this family was not in charge of herself, but Mrs. Xiao didn't let it.

Mu Chonglan looked at Xiao Xiantang, but Xiao Xiantang just flicked his sleeves and left, his face could be said to be extremely bad, but Mu Chonglan didn't know how to keep it, he held the needle and thread for a long time, and he didn't mean to start embroidering, he was obviously distracted.

Xiao Xiantang left, but he didn't return overnight, and when he returned to the door, when Mu Chonglan was ready to return to the door alone, Xiao Xiantang came back, and the exhaustion on his face seemed to have not been able to rest in the past two days.

Mu Chonglan didn't ask where he went, but just instructed the maid to load the homecoming gift, and Xiao Xiantang leaned on the tree trunk on the side to watch her busy, her eyes were full of displeasure, and she didn't know who was in the way of his eyes, and he refused to leave, which was really inexplicable.

When the car was loaded and Mu Chonglan was about to get into the car, he was pulled by the maid next to him on his sleeve, only to realize that Xiao Xiantang still hadn't left the matter, and seeing that he had been staring at him, Mu Chonglan muttered in his heart and walked over.

"I don't know if you're coming, the carriage is a little smaller."

Hearing Mu Chonglan say this, Xiao Xiantang's face looked better, nodded and walked towards the carriage, leaving Mu Chonglan alone staring in place, unable to figure out what he said wrong, and actually made him mistakenly think that he was inviting him to ride in the carriage together, she clearly wanted to say: Since the carriage prepared is small, don't go.

It's a pity that everyone is sitting on it at this time, can she still tear him off?

Sighing secretly, Mu Chonglan followed resignedly.

The carriage was used by the ladies of the house, Mu Chonglan thought that no matter how small it was, it would not even be able to sit down for two people, but when she really sat in, she found that the carriage was really smaller, and her legs were next to Xiao Xiantang's legs.

Fortunately, Xiao Xiantang has been leaning against the wall of the car and closing his eyes to rest since he got into the car, otherwise the two of them would be really embarrassed.

"The key thing is that I don't think about it thoroughly, but you don't want to be in charge, I don't force you, I have some shops and tea houses under my name, and I will let people give you the account books later, this is the key to the tea house warehouse."

Just when Mu Chonglan thought that Xiao Xiantang was asleep, and he began to be dazed and wanted to take a nap, he suddenly heard Xiao Xiantang say this, and a spirit woke up and looked at him suspiciously.

Seeing that his eyes were serious, not like he was joking, Mu Chonglan nodded and took the key: "It's okay, otherwise I don't know how outsiders will be suspicious, wait until I see my father and tell him that I don't want to care, my father will not go to Xiao Jiama for the sake of this key's face, and he will not go to Xiao Jiama......"

Before Mu Chonglan finished speaking, he saw Xiao Xiantang actually lift the carriage curtain: "Stop!" ”

The coachman who was driving the carriage hurriedly reined in the horse, and Xiao Xiantang got out of the carriage and drove the entourage off the horse, and turned over on the horse.

Mu Chonglan lifted the curtain of the car and took a look, and saw that the eldest young master's face was black and looked like something, so he pursed his lips.

This Xiao Xiantang, even if he has a stinky face, he is also good-looking, and he doesn't blame himself for marrying him at the beginning, but he has been disgusted with each other for many years, what if he Xiao Xiantang has the appearance of a celestial man?

She regretted it a long time ago......

Suddenly, Ling Li's gaze swept over, Mu Chonglan subconsciously looked over, and saw Xiao Xiantang looking at his side, and suddenly his throat tightened, and he wanted to put down the curtain, but he didn't want to make a move, so his hand was caught by the curtain cloth through the car, and he struggled, but he was clenched tighter.

"You're peeking at me."

"I ......"

Mu Chonglan raised his head to the reproach in Xiao Xiantang's eyes, and wanted to say that he didn't peek at all, but he only felt that his throat was dry, and it wasn't until the horse under Xiao Xiantang's crotch snorted that their hands parted as if they were burned.

There was a white jade bead stone at the lower end of the carriage curtain, and when it fell, it made a slight sound from the wall of the carriage, and the sound seemed to fall on Mu Chonglan's heart, and it took a while for Mu Chonglan to calm his thumping chest, gritted his teeth and clenched his fists and scolded in a low voice: "Mu Chonglan, Mu Chonglan, why are you so unproductive?" ”

It is a big deal for the girl to return to the door, not to mention that this time the door is still the most favored nine girls in the house, so before dawn, the house began to prepare, counting that the hour is almost over, the Mu family but everyone who has a little face has crowded into the middle door to see the excitement, and those who have no face and can't get on the stage are also inquiring about the situation in front of them in their own yards, and they don't know what they are thinking, just look at the little maid who is busy before and after, but it is very lively.

Seeing that the door salute was lifted to the house, the onlookers were speechless, and they all said, No wonder this prefect is willing to marry his daughter, this is obviously married to a golden mountain.

However, the Mu family knows that most of the seemingly beautiful return gifts are the dowries that were brought out a few days ago, and these nine girls are obviously using their own money to subsidize the face of the Xiao family.
