Chapter 12: The First Entry into the Capital (6)

At dinner, the Yue family sat around for dinner, when I used to read books, it was always said that men and women in ancient times ate at different tables after the age of seven, but Mu Ning had never seen this for so long, when he was in Luzhou, it didn't matter because there were few people in the family, but the three generations of the Yue family did not pay attention to this, I really don't understand these statements, is it because the Yue family is a soldier and there are not so many messy rules, and there is no rule of not saying anything, I really like this atmosphere, and now Mu Ning is holding the braised duck paw and gnawing happily.

Old Man Yue looked at his granddaughter's happy eating, he could only sigh worriedly, and he didn't eat or drink anymore when he was not happy, so he put down his chopsticks and stared at Mu Ning. The people at the dinner table saw that Old Man Yue was still annoyed if he didn't eat, drink or drink, and they all put down their chopsticks and waited for Old Man Yue to speak, only Mu Ning was buried in his head and gnawed on the duck paws, and he didn't pay attention to the surrounding situation, Mu Changfeng bumped into his sister, Mu Ning looked up and saw that everyone was not eating, and quickly put down the duck paws, it was so embarrassing and embarrassing.

Now that the dinner table is quietly waiting for Old Man Yue to speak, Mu Ning muttered in her heart: Is there anything that can't be said after dinner, she hasn't eaten enough. After Shen Meiren's diagnosis and treatment for a while, Mu Ning's appetite has improved a lot, the amount of food is also larger than before, and the meal is also very delicious, and it is really unpleasant to be interrupted to eat.

Old Man Yue finally spoke: "It's the Mid-Autumn Festival in a few days, just arrange it at home as in previous years, my wife and I will take Ming Yatou, Wan Yatou and a few boys into the palace, as well as you Ning Yatou." "I think my grandfather was a little bit gnashing his teeth when he said my name.

Mu Ning nodded his nose and asked, "Me?" Why should I go, my father is not in the capital, there is no reason for me to enter the palace for the Mid-Autumn Festival. "Although Mu Ning lives in her grandfather's house, her surname is Mu after all.

"Why? Why? "The old man's voice is a little louder.

"How do I know why, if I do, I would have to ask you." Mu Ning muttered in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it, for fear that the old man would be angry and smash the plate.

Old man Yue Zhiyong was very angry, but he was not angry with Mu Ning, but at his rival old man Hua Xuan. Today, the old guy dared to lick his face and say that he wanted to marry the Yue family, his grandson Hua Ying actually fell in love with Ning Yatou, Yue Zhiyong pinched up with Hua Xuan when he heard it, and then he actually made trouble with the emperor, the emperor knew that he was very happy, he had long wanted to reconcile the Yue and Hua families, but he didn't know how to do it and couldn't force it, how could he let it go when he had the opportunity to send it to the door, so there was a matter of letting Mu Ning enter the palace for a banquet.

"Is my brother going?" Mu Ning asked cautiously.

"Go, don't run around when you enter the palace, you two girls take care of her, don't make any trouble." Yue Zhiyong was very annoyed, the Rui Wangfu had not been completed yet, and the Hua family was also worried, "In the past few days, Yun Xi has told Ning Yatou about court etiquette, don't be so frizzy, it's for her good." ”

Mrs. Mu hurriedly agreed, she couldn't understand why her father was so angry, her daughter had never been out of Yue's Mansion for treatment for a while, and she was very well-behaved at home, but why did her father do this?

The mother and daughter returned to Minglan Courtyard, and Mu Ning said with a bitter face: "Mother, doesn't my grandfather like me, I'm very well-behaved these days, I haven't fought or caused trouble, why am I so fierce to me." That little face was so bitter that Mrs. Mu couldn't cry or laugh.

Knowing the daughter Mo Ruo's mother, Mrs. Mu didn't know her daughter's careful thoughts, and said with a smile: "Okay, my mother won't force you to learn those rules, tell you what to pay attention to during the banquet, what the basic etiquette is, look at your little face is bitter, don't you know what your mother thinks in your heart." ”

Mrs. Mu will not force her daughter to learn those rules, she doesn't want her daughter to marry into those wealthy deep courtyards at all, she just wants her daughter to be happy and safe all her life.

A few days passed quickly, today was the Mid-Autumn Festival, the day Mu Ning entered the palace for the first time, and now she was sitting in front of the dressing table, and the maids were dressing her up. Mu Ning doesn't usually dress up, she is only fourteen years old now, it is the age of youth, and she feels unnecessary to use those rouge creams, so she has always been plain. But today is different, if you don't dress up well, I'm afraid that someone in the palace will accuse you of a crime, saying that not paying attention to the royal banquet is equivalent to contempt for the royal family, and it will be a big trouble, so Mu Ning patiently let the maids fiddle with their hair and face back and forth.

Mu Ning felt as if a year had passed, and the maids had finally dressed her up, and her mother said that she looked good. But Mu Ning can't see where it looks good, the mirror is made of brass, although it is very exquisite, but it can make people a little distorted, whatever, his mother said that if it looks good, it must be good-looking, although in his mother's heart, his children are the best.

Mu Ning couldn't see where he was beautiful, but when his brother and several cousins and cousins of the Yue family showed that amazing expression when they saw him, Mu Ning felt that he might be really good-looking.

Mu Ning and the others took two carriages to the palace, and when they arrived at the gate of the palace, there were already many people arriving, waiting for the guards guarding the door to check their identities and enter the palace, the three of them helped Mrs. Yue get out of the carriage, and then went to enter the palace with Old Man Yue and them. At this time, I saw Zheng Xuan walking towards them, he had actually arrived a long time ago, but he didn't go in advance, and had been waiting for Mu Ning to come.

Today, the little girl finally dressed up, I didn't expect it to be so beautiful, amazing! In the past few months, Zheng Xuan has seen Mu Ning with plain faces, and his hair is also tied casually at the back of his head, and he doesn't even wear a hairpin or a head flower, he only uses a ribbon to tie a bow on his bun, but today it is like a different person, if he doesn't walk with Mrs. Yue and them, Zheng Xuan may not be able to recognize it at a glance. But Zheng Xuan felt a little angry when he saw Mu Ning like this, showing such beauty in public, he just saw it, but those people with ulterior motives also saw it, especially those bastards who thought about Mu Ning. When the two old men Yue and Hua made trouble with the emperor, Zheng Xuan knew about it that night; Zheng Xuan didn't want him to have an accident in his marriage with the little girl, in order not to complicate things, he had to do something to dispel those people's thoughts today, and he was sure that he would succeed, because the little girl was Mu Ning, a different little girl.

Mu Ning looked at Zheng Xuan, who came to them, and was also sincerely impressed. Today's Zheng Xuan is wearing the formal clothes of the prince's suit, which is not the same type as the handsome and graceful and unruly in weekdays, and the current Zheng Xuan makes people feel solemn and elegant, Mu Ning's heartbeat is a little faster, she likes such a man, and she has a sense of security.
