Chapter Forty-Nine: Preparing to Investigate
There is still some distance between the courtyard gate and the main house, and now Mu Chumeng, who is outside the courtyard gate, looks into the courtyard from time to time, wanting to hear the movement inside.
However, she had been standing here for half an hour, and she had not heard the slightest sound.
Mu Chuning hasn't come out yet, so she dares to go back first.
I had to wait here.
Inside the house, Mu Chuning looked at the Yun family in a daze, but she didn't expect that she would guess the little Jiujiu in her heart.
From what the Yun family said just now, she finally understood that the Yun family came to her to talk about her relatives.
It seems that the Yun family did not pursue the matter of her going out with Mu Chumeng.
In this way, it is much easier to solve, and it is generally up to the parents to decide this kind of thing. However, Mu Chengtian and the Yun family both cared more about their daughter's feelings, so they didn't forcibly push their daughter out like other families.
However, Mo Huai seems to have forgotten about this matter...... Mu Chuning lowered his head and thought about it, he had a lot of things to do recently, how could he be affected by her little thing.
Forget it, let's talk about it for a while.
Yun looked at Mu Chuning bowing her head thoughtfully, thinking that she was thinking about how to talk to herself. didn't rush to urge Mu Chu Ning to speak, and sat there patiently waiting.
"Mother......
"Huh?"
Mu Chuning slowly raised her head and looked at the Yun Clan.
Seeing that Yun was looking at him dotingly, as if he was waiting for her to speak.
pursed his lips and said, "I don't want to get married yet, can I not mention this matter for the time being?" ”
After speaking, Mu Chuning looked at the Yun clan cautiously, secretly preparing in her heart that the Yun clan was about to blame herself.
But who knows, instead of being angry, the Yun clan chuckled, which made Mu Chuning a little confused.
"Mother, what are you laughing at?"
"Ling'er, you are really as your father and mother thought, you never thought of marrying so early."
Hey? Mu Chuning was stunned, could it be that her parents had expected her to say this?
Yun looked at Mu Chuning's confused appearance, and the smile on the corner of his mouth deepened.
"Actually, my father and mother don't want you to leave the house early, whether it's you or Meng'er, my father and mother just want you to be happy."
"Mother."
Mu Chuning was a little moved, her parents really loved them.
couldn't help but get into Yun's arms, rubbed Yun's clothes coquettishly, it felt good to have my father and mother in pain.
Yun gently hugged Mu Chuning, put his face on her head, and gently patted her back like when she was a child.
Mu Chuning closed her eyes, sniffing the familiar smell on Yun's body, and forgot for a while that Mu Chumeng was still waiting outside.
Sometimes Mu Chuning is afraid that when she gets married in the future, she won't be able to be coquettish like this in her mother's arms.
"Our Ling'er and Meng'er are both mother's treasures, the most cherished treasures in this life." Yun whispered softly in Mu Chuning's ear.
It had been an hour since he came out of the Yun family's house, and when he came out, Mu Chuning remembered Mu Chumeng who was waiting outside the far courtyard.
When he trotted to the gate of the courtyard, he saw Mu Chumeng sitting on the ground against the wall, bored playing with the grass growing in the corner.
Hearing the movement and seeing himself coming out, he hurriedly got up and asked anxiously, "Sister, what did my mother say?" ”
"It's nothing, it's just a trivial."
"Didn't you mention that we were going out?"
"Nope."
Mu Chumeng breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, and it was good that she didn't find it.
After looking here for so long, Mu Chumeng only felt that her legs were a little sore, and since there was nothing to do, she went back to Fengwan Pavilion.
I didn't have the heart to ask what trivial things Yun Clan had said to Mu Chuning.
Back to Chuzhi Pavilion, Mu Chuning was idle and wanted to go to the study to read a book for a while.
Xizhu went to prepare some tea and snacks and put them on the table in the study before leaving to do his own thing.
Mu Chuning looked at those heavy books, sighed lightly, sat down and patiently flipped through the pages one by one.
Thinking of the search for the Miaojiang people again, his attention suddenly shifted to the side.
With his own strength alone, I am afraid that it will be difficult to find the Miaojiang people, unless I can find someone who travels a lot, and maybe I can still have some eyebrows.
Who are you looking for...... Mu Chuning's eyes were staring at the books, but in her mind, she was quickly looking for someone to ask.
She likes to wander outside all day without being at home, and the only one she knows is ...... Gongliang Xun!
How did she forget this man, didn't he spend all day out and about, maybe he would know how to find it.
However, she doesn't seem to know Gongliangxun very well, and she still put on a face to others before.
"What the hell did I do before?" Mu Chuning closed her eyes heavily and muttered.
Mu Chuning wanted to pat herself in annoyance, she knew that she wouldn't be so kind to others.
Well, now it's too late to regret it when you have something to ask others.
What to do...... Mu Chuning suddenly lay on the table a little weakly.
Otherwise, go and try Yin Qingzhu? Let her help herself ask? Mu Chuning remembered that Yin Qingzhu and Gongliangxun couldn't talk that day, and it shouldn't be a problem to ask her.
Thinking like this, Mu Chuning suddenly came to his senses. Thinking of going to Yin's Mansion tomorrow to find Yin Qingzhu and asking her to ask on her behalf!
I won't go to Nanlin Pavilion tomorrow, anyway, Mo Huai is still busy planning to go to the Mo family.
As for Mu Chumeng...... Mu Chuning thought for a moment and called Xizhu to come in towards the door.
"Xizhu, you go to the Evening Feng Pavilion and tell the second lady that you won't go to Nanlin Pavilion on the next day, and when you ask the reason, you will say that I have something to do."
"Yes, miss."
Xizhu didn't ask much after getting down, turned around and walked out of the study.
In fact, Mu Chuning was still hesitant to say something to Mo Huai, but when he remembered his ignorant appearance that day, he became angry, so he simply stopped talking.
The next day, Mu Chuning did not get up so early as usual, but slept until she woke up naturally.
got up and ate breakfast slowly, and after a brief combing, he took Xizhu to Yin's mansion.
I had already told Xizhu last night about the purpose of coming out today, so Xizhu didn't ask as curiously as before along the way.
When I arrived at Yin's Mansion, I happened to see Yin Qingzhu who was about to go out.
Both of them were stunned for a moment when they saw each other, and they opened their mouths at the same time.
"Chu Ning, why are you here?"
"Qingzhu, where are you going?"
The questions were different, but they were said at the same time, causing the two to look at each other and smile.
Yin Qingzhu walked up to Mu Chuning and smiled: "The two of us are really a coincidence. ”
"Are you going out?" Mu Chuning asked.
"Well, I'm going to meet someone." Yin Qingzhu replied with a somewhat evasive look in his eyes.
"Who are you seeing, Gongliangxun?" Mu Chuning guessed.
Originally, she was just jokingly guessing, but she didn't expect Yin Qingzhu to nod a little shyly.
It's really him! This is something Mu Chuning didn't expect.
"You're moving so fast?"
"No, I haven't seen him since the end of the Zhixia Meeting. I heard that he would go to sit by the lake as long as he was fine, so I wondered if I could try my luck and say a few words to him. ”
Yin Qingzhu said, and smiled slightly humbly.
However, this is exactly what Mu Chuning thought. In this way, Yin Qingzhu can help himself by the way to ask Gongliangxun if there is a way to find the Miaojiang people.
"Shall I go with you?" Mu Chuning stepped forward and wrapped his arms around Yin Qingzhu and smiled.
Someone accompanied Yin Qingzhu naturally couldn't ask for it, so he agreed without much thought.
The two chatted all the way, talking and laughing with Mu Chuning for a while, and the tension in Yin Qingzhu's heart also dissipated a lot.
"By the way, Qingzhu, you will see Gongliangxun in a while, can you help me find out something?"
"What's the matter?"
Yin Qingzhu looked at Mu Chuning curiously.
Because Yin Qingzhu didn't know about Mohuai's affairs, Mu Chuning naturally wanted to omit Mohuai's part and directly ask the focus of the question.
"Even if you ask him if he knows where to find the Miaojiang people, he should know some when he travels a lot."
"But why are you asking this?"
"If you have my own use, can you help me ask?"
Mu Chuning blinked as she spoke, and shook Yin Qingzhu's arm.
Seeing that Mu Chuning was like this, Yin Qingzhu didn't have the resistance to refuse, so he had to reluctantly agree.
Before they knew it, the two of them walked to the shore of the lake, but the edge of the lake was very long, and they didn't know where Gongliang would sit.
There's no way, who asked her Mu Chuning to have something to ask about this uncertain third son of Gongliang.
Even if it's hard to find, you have to be patient to find it.
South of the pavilion......
Mo Huai, who didn't know if Mu Chuning would come today, was sitting in the study, looking forward to Mu Chuning's arrival.
After thinking about it for a while, Mu Chuning came, and he must admit his mistake with her. It was a sin for him to forget what he had promised her before because of so many things that had happened recently.
The matter of going to the Mo family will not be able to start until Li Zuo returns, and before that, all he has to do is try not to leave the Nanlin Pavilion, so as not to let Mo Yan's people find out something.
However, Mo Huai waited for a long time. It stands to reason that Mu Chuning should usually appear at this time, why haven't you heard anyone coming until now?
She shouldn't be really angry, right? Mo Huai guessed in his heart, would it be because of this that he couldn't come?
Mo Huai stood up a little depressed, walked to the pot of jade dew on the windowsill, and quietly stared at the jade dew and gradually saw his ......
And Mu Chuning's side, when he was about to walk to the end of the lake, he finally saw Gongliangxun sleeping alone on the lawn.
The two couldn't help but be overjoyed, and Yin Qingzhu was even more excited.
"Go ahead, remember to help me ask about things." Mu Chuning reminded in Yin Qingzhu's ear.
"Got it." Yin Qingzhu nodded, and walked towards Gongliangxun.
After Yin Qingzhu left, Mu Chuning hurriedly found a hidden place to hide so that he could investigate the situation.
As everyone knows, Gongliangxun lying on the lawn has already opened his eyes when they don't know it, and he can see all the actions they have just made.
Only when they turned around, they closed their eyes again, and their mouths crossed an imperceptible arc.
We meet again, Mu Chuning......
