Chapter 29: Accidents

When the south of the Yangtze River was flooded, Mu Qingwan secretly invested a lot of materials and silver. Some areas in Jiangnan are now being rebuilt, and they will not be able to recover immediately for a while and a half.

In today's world, change is what is said, only if you have capital in your hands, you will not panic when something happens.

Mu Qingwan planned to save some more silver, just in case.

Whether it is the war in Biansai or the flooding in the south of the Yangtze River, it is also ironic that the consumption power of the capital has not been reduced, and the business of Linlang Pavilion is still making money day by day.

Mu Qingwan plans to use this time to launch new styles of clothes and jewelry, presumably there will be many banquets in the near future, and the business of the store will also be better.

After discussing the recent arrangements of Linlang Pavilion with Hu Zhao, Mu Qingwan went to the courtyard of her sister-in-law and talked to her, and the sister-in-law really didn't like Mu Qingyun very much, Mu Qingwan persuaded a few words, and went back to her house. The sister-in-law was born noble, how to deal with Mu Qingyun, naturally she has her own set of methods, there is no need for Mu Qingwan to put her beak, and Mu Qingwan, as a sister-in-law, is not good to always meddle in the family affairs of the eldest brother. Therefore, Mu Qingwan only mentioned a few words and left.

"Squeak."

At night, not long after Mu Qingwan lay down, she heard a slight sound coming, and the window was opened!

Mu Qingwan became vigilant.

The visitor looked at Mu Qingwan with burning eyes, making her feel uncomfortable.

"Who?"

"How are you?"

Mu Qingwan couldn't stand the other party's hot gaze at her, so she sat up suddenly.

The two looked at each other, and the person who came was Jing Yao!

This is the first time that the two of them have met since returning to the capital, but they don't know what to say, and the atmosphere is a little silent.

Jing Yao has grown taller, and he has become darker, more imposing, and he is no longer the cute little Zhengtai he was at the beginning.

"Why are you here?"

"I'm coming."

Almost at the same time, the voices of two men rang out, followed by a burst of silence.

"Sit down."

Mu Qingwan put on a piece of clothing, got up and walked to the lampstand, took off the black cloth covering the night pearl, and the room lit up all of a sudden. Then, he walked to the table and motioned for Jing Yao to sit down.

"Hmm."

Time is always a wonderful thing, and people always change.

Five years later, Jing Yao is silent, and he is no longer the young man who pretends to be suave and graceful from time to time with a folding fan in his hand.

"I want to come and see you."

Across a table, Jing Yao looked at Mu Qingwan and said seriously.

"Hmm."

Mu Qingwan didn't know what to say, the two of them looked a little strange now.

"I miss you when I'm on the side."

Jing Yao hesitated for a moment and continued.

“……”

This sentence, Mu Qingwan didn't know what to do.

"Are you doing? In the past few years, I have been very guilty, if it weren't for me, you wouldn't have left the capital back then, I ......"

"No need to mention it, it's not your fault."

Mu Qingwan stopped Jing Yao's words, and there was no point in mentioning the past.

"Okay."

Jing Yao nodded.

Mu Qingwan looked at Jing Yao's current appearance, a little speechless, could it be that he had been on the side for a long time, and people had become dumbfounded?

As everyone knows, Jing Yao is struggling now, she should have been her daughter-in-law, but now she is married to her brother, and she is working hard to find a way to snatch people back, but her daughter-in-law is not conscious, what should I do? I'm in a hurry, but I can't say it? It's really embarrassing.

"It's getting late, go back quickly, I'm ready to rest."

Mu Qingwan didn't want to rub shoulders with Jing Yao anymore, so she issued an eviction order.

"Oh, I'll wait until you're asleep before leaving."

“……”

Mu Qingwan is about to explode, two lonely men and widows, is it really good for you to say such things? I'm not the simple and ignorant self I was anymore, okay?

"You go back, after all, I have been engaged to the Twelve Princes, and it will be known to others, and the impact will not be good."

Mu Qingwan didn't want to talk to Jing Yao anymore.

“……”

This time I was speechless, what should I do if my heart is very congested? Jing Yao felt that his road to chasing his wife was far away. This feeling is simply not too sour.

"Then I'm leaving, you have a good rest."

Jing Yao sighed silently, got up, and returned the way he came.

Mu Qingwan looked at the hairpin left on the table, and felt very irritated in her heart, some things could not disappear if she wanted to ignore them.

Suppressing the irritability in her heart, Mu Qingwan went to bed, but she tossed and turned, unable to sleep for a long time.

……

In a courtyard of the Marquis of Anping's mansion, there are plenty of lights.

"Yun'er, I'll find a way, you have to believe me."

The Twelve Princes looked at Mu Qingyun nervously.

"yes, I know."

Mu Qingyun blushed and nodded.

"But, where is the seventh sister?"

Mu Qingyun thought of Mu Qingwan and wanted to remind the twelve princes a few words.

"What about that woman, what does it matter to me."

The Twelve Princes didn't think so, they were just an irrelevant woman, what was there to care about.

"I know, the seventh sister is not satisfied with this family business, even if she withdraws from the family in the future, she will be happy."

Mu Qingyun told everything he knew, but dug a pit for Mu Qingwan.

At this time, Mu Qingwan didn't know how much trouble this "stupid" sister had caused herself. Originally, the Twelve Princes planned to simply withdraw from their relatives, but as for Mu Qingwan, it had nothing to do with him. However, after hearing Mu Qingyun's words, the twelve princes felt uncomfortable. There are people who dislike themselves as a prince? It's unreasonable! I thought in my heart, maybe I should change the way to withdraw from the family, and I must make this woman look good!

"You're always too kind and think a lot for others. Think more about yourself in the future, or I'll be so worried, you little fool. However, I will take a good look at you and not let you be bullied by others. ”

The Twelfth Prince looked at Mu Qingyun's ignorant appearance and scratched her nose dotingly.

Mu Qingyun and the Twelve Princes talked and laughed, but no one paid attention to the scene in the same courtyard and another room.

Mrs. Mu San really didn't care about several concubines, and several of them were arranged in the same courtyard, far away from where they lived, out of sight and out of mind. Luckily, the yard is big enough so that even if you live with three people, it won't look crowded.

Coincidentally, the place where Mu Qingrong lives is directly opposite Mu Qingyun's house, and sometimes, some secrets will be inadvertently revealed.

Mu Qingrong's body was hidden in the dark, observing Mu Qingyun's room through the small crack in the window.

The window reflects the figure of two people, a man and a woman, the woman is petite and exquisite, and the man is long and straight.

It was not the first time Mu Qingrong had seen such a scene.

From the first day that Mu Qingyun lived opposite her, Mu Qingrong began to secretly observe this eighth sister. He looks so similar to Mu Qingwan, but his personality is very different.

Mu Qingrong is envious and even jealous of Mu Qingyun, obviously they are all concubines, Mu Qingyun's biological mother is just an outer room, her identity is even more humble than herself, but why does Mu Qingyun have to live so much better than herself!
