Since returning from Nanlin Pavilion that day, Mu Chuning has not passed for several days.

Because Mu Chumeng has to hurry up and practice, Mu Chuning also has to hurry up to find a way to alleviate the Gu poison on Mo Huai's body, so if Mu Chumeng wants to contact Mo Huai in the past few days, he will use flying pigeons to pass the book.

It was soon time for the banquet......

Because this banquet could only bring direct family members, Yun Yiheng did not go with him, but stayed to take care of the shop.

Maybe it was because of some nervousness, Mu Chumeng sat quietly all the way, without looking east and west like in the past, or pulling Mu Chuning to speak.

Mu Chuning watched Mu Chumeng hold her skirt tightly with her hands on her knees, and couldn't help but be a little worried.

Stretched out his hand and gently shook Mu Chumeng's hand, feeling Mu Chumeng tremble slightly, and his eyes were full of confusion when he looked up at her.

gave Mu Chumeng a reassuring smile and signaled her to relax.

Feeling the temperature from Mu Chuning's palm, Mu Chumeng gradually became less nervous than before.

"Meng'er remember not to be too nervous for a while, just dance like you normally practice." Yun comforted.

"It's not about the outcome, it's about the engagement." Mu Chengtian also spoke slowly.

Although it is said that there will be a reward for the most outstanding person in this performance, Mu Chengtian doesn't care about this reward, he just wants Mu Chumeng to take this opportunity to experience his acting experience.

Mu Chumeng, who was comforted by her parents and eldest sister, couldn't help but feel a little moved in her heart, and secretly swore in her heart that she would dance well for a while and not embarrass the Mu family.

As the carriage stopped, Mu Chuning and the others arrived at the Gongliang Mansion, where the banquet was held.

Mu Chengtian and the Yun clan walked in front to deal with the Gongliang family who was in charge of receiving them at the door, while Mu Chuning and Mu Chumeng followed behind.

Entering this mansion, Mu Chuning looked at this huge mansion and couldn't help but sigh that this Gongliang family was not ordinary wealthy.

With the servants who led the way, Mu Chuning and the others arrived at the seats where the guests were seated, but Mu Chengtian and the Yun clan were arranged to be far away from Mu Chuning and Mu Chumeng.

Although he couldn't sit in one place, Mu Chengtian was very relieved that Mu Chuning could take care of Mu Chumeng, so he didn't say anything.

It's just that the Yun family was a little worried about whether the two sisters could cope with it, and when they left, they also told Mu Chuning to come to her if there was anything.

Mu Chuning gave the Yun clan a reassuring look, and then took Mu Chumeng to their seat and sat down.

After doing this, Mu Chuning had no time to look around and found that this seat was deliberately arranged for the guests to sit separately from their children.

No wonder when I walked over, I found that I was surrounded by young people, and one or two young children.

Mu Chuning was a little puzzled in her heart, was there a purpose for deliberately arranging their group of young masters and young ladies to sit together?

If Mu Chuning remembers correctly, Mu Chengtian once mentioned the Gongliang family. It is said that this Gongliang family is the richest merchant family in Jinyuan City, and now the person in charge is Gongliangwei, the master of the Gongliang family.

There are three sons under this Gongliangwei, the eldest son Gongliangchun and the second son Gongliangpin have all started a family, and only the younger son Gongliangxun has not yet married a wife.

Mu Chuning guessed that this banquet was most likely to be for the youngest son to choose a suitable family choice.

But Mu Chuning doesn't know what this Gongliang looks like, and I believe that few of the young ladies here have seen it.

But I heard that this Gongliang Xun and his fun-loving nature, he was always away from home for ten days and half a month, maybe this Gongliang master just wanted to marry a daughter-in-law to Gongliang Xun to suppress his fun-loving nature.

Mu Chuning was thinking about it, when suddenly Mu Chumeng beside her touched herself, and whispered in her ear.

"Sister, it seems that someone next to you has been watching you." Mu Chumeng whispered, and motioned for Mu Chuning to look in the direction she was looking at.

Following Mu Chumeng's line of sight, he saw a woman in a water blue dress staring at him upright. It looks familiar, but I forget where I've seen it.

"Do you know who that is?" Mu Chuning asked in a low voice with her head sideways.

"This seems to be Yin Qingzhu, the eldest lady of the Yin family." Mu Chumeng introduced.

The reason why I knew that it was Yin Qingzhu of the Yin family was because Mu Chumeng had studied dancing with her before, and among the students was Yin Xiangzhu, the third lady of the Yin family.

I often hear Yin Xiangzhu mention her eldest sister Yin Qingzhu, and occasionally Yin Qingzhu will come over to pick up Yin Xiangzhu home, so Mu Chumeng still has some impressions.

"It turned out to be her." Mu Chuning suddenly remembered that she seemed to have met this Yin Qingzhu when she went to pick up Mu Chumeng last time.

No wonder she felt familiar when she saw this face, but why did she look at herself with a look that saw through herself?

Yin Qingzhu, who was staring at Mu Chuning here, was actually wondering whether to go up and say hello, after all, they had met in person last time.

When Mu Chuning walked to the child's exclusive seat here, Yin Qingzhu recognized Mu Chuning, but when she saw that she didn't seem to notice herself, she chose to be silent and silent.

At this time, Yin Xiangzhu, who had just gone to wash his hands, came over, and when he sat next to Yin Qingzhu, he found that his sister was staring at a place in a daze, and she was still up and looking at that sight.

saw his classmate Mu Chumeng, and then happily beckoned to Mu Chumeng.

Seeing the situation, Mu Chumeng also waved a little in response.

The actions of Yin Xiangzhu and Mu Chumeng made Mu Chuning and Yin Qingzhu beside them subconsciously look at each other.

When the two saw each other looking at them, they were stunned for a moment. To avoid embarrassment, he nodded his head as a sign of politeness.

Then the banquet officially began, first by Gong Liangwei to give a speech, then the guests sent congratulatory messages, and finally it was the performance time of each lady.

played in the order of the previous arrangement, and Mu Chumeng ranked fifth.

Sure enough, as Mu Chuning expected, all the ladies from these big merchants came up to perform.

The performance time for each person was not long, and soon it was Mu Chumeng's turn to play.

"Don't be nervous, just dance like you're at home."

"Yes."

Mu Chumeng's voice trembled slightly when she answered, and it was obvious that she was now nervous again.

"Next, Mu Chumeng, the second lady of Mu Mansion, will perform a dance."

As soon as this voice came out, Mu Chumeng began to slowly walk to the center and prepare for the move.

Mu Chengtian and Yun Shi, who were sitting on the other side, stared at Mu Chumeng tightly.

Gongliangwei, who was sitting on the main seat, couldn't help but be shocked when he saw Mu Chumeng on the field, if he remembered correctly, the second lady of Mu Mansion would have just turned thirteen this year.

Didn't he understand what he meant by this episode? Obviously, there is an eldest daughter in the family who doesn't need to let the youngest daughter go, does this not clear that he just wants to simply come to the banquet?

Here, Mu Chumeng danced very smoothly, and after a dance, he saluted the people present and walked to the seat.

After sitting back in her seat, Mu Chumeng still didn't come to her senses.

"Let's have some water and relax." Mu Chuning said and put a cup of tea in front of Mu Chumeng.

When Mu Chumeng heard this, she immediately picked up the teacup and drank it all, before she gradually calmed down.

"Sister, I didn't make a mistake just now, did I?"

"You're dancing well."

Mu Chuning saw Mu Chumeng looking at herself with some worry, and couldn't help but feel a little funny.

Next, it was the turn of the young lady of the Yin family to come on the stage, and it was Yin Qingzhu, the eldest lady of the Yin family, who came up to perform.

This Yin family should just want to use this performance to let Yin Qingzhu get the favor of the Gongliang family, so as to win over the relationship between the two families.

Yin Qingzhu performed a pipa song, sitting elegantly in the middle, and his slender jade fingers plucked the strings and made a graceful sound.

Gong Liangwei, who was sitting on the seat, nodded appreciatively, this eldest lady of the Yin family is really talented and beautiful.

Master Yin, who was observing Gongliangwei from the side, was secretly happy when he saw Gongliangwei's satisfied expression, thinking that this plan should be half successful.

After Yin Qingzhu finished playing, he also saluted and walked back to his seat.

At this time, the people sitting at the table whispered to the people next to them about Yin Qingzhu's performance just now.

Some praised Yin Qingzhu for playing well just now, and some were full of jealousy and sour words.

He didn't care about the discussion around him, and walked back to his position and sat down with a steady pace.

When he passed by Mu Chuning, he stopped. Mu Chuning was a little confused, and looked up at Yin Qingzhu.

I saw that she was slightly stunned, as if she wanted to say something but didn't say it, and hurriedly walked back to her seat.

Mu Chuning, who was left confused, thought to himself that this person suddenly stopped and left without saying anything, what did he mean?
