Chapter 45: Threats
I was about to follow over to take a look, but unexpectedly, a cold female voice sounded not far away, "Little girls' jokes, why should Miss Mu care?" β
Mu Xi followed the prestige, and saw a beautiful woman walking slowly with a brocade dress, a golden hairpin, and exquisite makeup. She curled her lips slightly, and a sarcastic smile hung on the corners of her lips.
She is Li Weiyuan's second wife, Aunt Cui, Mu Xi faintly guessed her intention to come here in her heart, seeing that her attitude did not put herself in her eyes, perhaps, in her heart, she is just a little girl with no background and no support!
"Madame, this is here to find Muxi?"
After speaking, as if thinking of something, Mu Xi's eyes froze, and he looked at Cui Shi and asked, "Your niece collided with the fifth lady of the Qin Mansion, I'm afraid it's not accidental, right?" β
Cui Shi finally put away his contempt and praised: "If you are really smart, since you are a smart person, you should do something that a smart person should do, don't act in vain~"
In the last sentence, she deliberately lengthened her voice, and there was a warning in her eyes. Mu Xi sneered in his heart, but his face was as plain as water, and he raised his eyebrows pretending to be puzzled and asked, "Oh, then Mrs. Yi only saw it, what is what a smart person should do?" β
Cui Shi stretched out his green and white jade hand, played with the appliquΓ© nails, and didn't look at Mu Xi, and said to himself: "The eldest lady has always wanted a son, and you are a miracle doctor praised by everyone, perhaps, you can help the eldest lady fulfill her wish." However, there are already two sons in this Li Mansion, and it is not beautiful to have more. My cousin of the Cui family is a noble concubine and thinks that the simplicity of the children is conducive to the peace of the family, I guess you will think so too, right? β
The last sentence, she looked at Mu Xi's eyes and said, she smiled lightly, although she is already a mother of three children, but the charm still exists, the skin is white and smooth, the eyes are like silk, and there are all kinds of amorous, but Mu Xi saw a trace of sharpness in her eyes.
is a good Cui family, he actually used Cui Guifei to pressure himself and force himself to comply, thinking that with Cui Guifei, he could have no fear? But how could she be such a person who was easily threatened!
Her eyes were also a little sharper, and she looked at Cui Shi with a faint smile, "What does the concubine think, I'm afraid that Mrs. is the same as Mu Xi, she doesn't know, right?" β
"You..."
Cui Shi was choked by Mu Xi's words and retorted wordlessly, Mu Xi's words, Cui Shi was so angry that he pressed the fire in his heart, but he only heard Mu Xi continue: "Mu Xi doesn't worry about what others do, Madam has such idleness, it's better to think about how to stop the eldest lady." Mu Xi and the eldest lady still have an appointment, and there will probably be no banquet for a while, Mu Xi will take the first step, the garden scenery is good, Mu Xi will not disturb Mrs. Yaxing. β
Mu Xi didn't give Cui Shi a chance to speak again, she was not a virgin, and how Cui Shi and the eldest lady fought had nothing to do with her. But it is imperative for her to ask the eldest lady to owe her a favor.
Not to mention the high-ranking Cui Guifei, do you remember that there is a person like Cui, as far as the future is concerned, in the future, competing for the throne, Cui Guifei must also be an obstacle to the night clouds, and they are always opposite to each other, and she has no reason to help a person who is opposed to herself. Cui's wanted to use Cui Guifei's name to beat herself, but she also underestimated herself.
Mu Xi went out of the garden, asked the maid, and found the two sisters Qin Youyuan. Qin Youwan and Cui's niece just stumbled a few words, when Mu Xi saw her, the little girl was obviously angry with her cheeks, Qin Youwan comforted softly beside her, what should others do, tasting dim sum and drinking new tea before spring, talking and laughing with the people next to her, so unhappy.
There is nothing special about the feast, the ladies have a table, the younger girls have a table, the little girls are greedy for cups, and feel that the fruit wine is sweet and delicious, so they also learn to feast the elders in the family and toast with others.
Although fruit wine is made from fruit, it is also wine, but it is not very strong. For the little girls who are raised in the deep boudoir and don't drink at all, they can't resist drinking too much, and their heads are dizzy.
At the end of the feast, the little girls puffed their little faces, like peach blossoms blooming in spring, delicate and lovely. The young men at the table in the distance looked at the girls' table, and they couldn't wait to come over and get close to the girls like flowers, but they didn't dare to take a step beyond the thunder pool, so they could only look at it from a distance, hiding their favorite girls in their hearts.
After the feast, everyone sat down for a while, drank a few sips of tea, tasted a few pieces of dim sum, and when the hour was almost up, they said goodbye and left. Mu Xi told Qin Youyuan to let her and Qin Youwan go back first, and there was no need to wait for her.
At the end of the feast, she was led directly by Mama Lin to Mrs. Li's courtyard. As soon as she saw Mu Xi, she greeted Mu Xi diligently, pulled Mu Xi to sit down on the seat, and said, "Miss Mu, come and taste these melons and fruits, they are sweet and delicious." β
Mu Xi smiled slightly and said, "Madame's invitation to Mu Xi shouldn't be just for Mu Xi to taste melons and fruits, right?" β
Mrs. Li's smile condensed on her face, and then she waved her hand to the servants in the house, and they all withdrew from the house, and when there were only two of them left in the house, she sighed: "Miss Mu Bingxue is smart, she must have guessed what the woman asked for today, can the girl help the woman?" β
Facing her earnest eyes, Mu Xi frowned slightly, reached out to pick up the teacup, but just scraped the tea with the lid, muttered for a long time, didn't take a sip of the tea, and put it down again. It wasn't until Mrs. Li still looked at her earnestly that she said: "Aunt Cui has looked for me just now, I heard that Cui Guifei is her cousin, Cui Guifei has been favored for many years, and no one can afford to offend it!" β
Mrs. Li's heart sank, and she supported the edge of the table with her hand, as if she was unwilling, and said hatefully after a long time: "I have been pressed on my head by her all these years, and I can't breathe, but my stomach is not angry..."
looked up at Mu Xi, and said with a smile: "Let the girl smile." The girl also has the difficulties of the girl, the woman understands, you can't force people to make it difficult, if the girl can't help the woman, the woman can understand. β
Mu Xi took a sip of the teacup at this time, put down the teacup, and said unhurriedly: "It's not that I can't help Madame, and I can't find my fault if I want to come to the concubine." However, whether Madame can get what she wants depends on Madame's luck. β
What Mu Xi implied in his words, Mrs. Li understood, and when she heard that she was willing to help herself, she couldn't help crying with joy at the moment, stood up and gave a deep salute, and said: "If the girl can help me, this woman will definitely remember the girl's great kindness in this life." β
Mu Xi also stood up, helped her up and said with a smile: "Madame, what is this doing, what Mu Xi does is just the duty of a doctor, I have a very happy conversation with Madame, and it is also fate, I really hope that Madame can get what she wants." β
