Chapter 171: Blind date

Murong Xian didn't return home until evening,

As soon as he entered the door, he heard the housekeeper say that his mother was looking for him, and he said with a pale face: "I'll go back and wash my face first, my mother is looking for me something,"

The butler smiled very ambiguously, "Naturally it's a good thing, the general will go back and freshen up immediately, Madame has booked a table tonight, and she wants to go out to dinner with the general,"

Murong Xian was immersed in his own sadness, and he didn't notice the housekeeper's ambiguous eyes, but he wasn't in the mood to go out to eat at the moment, he replied lightly: "Tell Madam that I won't go tonight, I'm very tired,"

The housekeeper was slightly stunned, "It's not good, Madame has booked the table,"

"Let her go eat with her father," said him, and went straight back to his room through the corridor, without passing through the main hall.

The housekeeper went back to reply to Mrs. Murong, and Mrs. Murong asked, "Where did the general go today?"

The housekeeper said: "I heard the guards reply that the general went to the palace today, and he probably discussed things with the prince,"

Mrs. Murong pondered for a moment and said, "That's probably a state affair, but I've already made an appointment with Mrs. Hou, and this matter can't be changed, okay, you go, I'll go and persuade him personally,"

The butler answered,

Mrs. Murong said to Jing'er behind her, "You take out that red dress for me, and I'll wear that one tonight,"

Jing'er replied, "Yes, ma'am,"

After Mrs. Murong finished speaking, she moved out,

Murong Xian returned to the room, just lay on the bed motionless, looking at everything in this house, this was once the new house he had prepared for Ye Rong, the life he had dreamed of, in the end, everything fell through, at the beginning, he didn't dare to enter this house, when he stepped into this new house after a night of drunkenness, looking at everything in the house, it was like his dream, he found that he could feel a trace of warmth when he stayed in the dream, just like that, he moved into the new house, this new house, only the groom, He decided to spend his whole life waiting for his bride,

The door was babbled open, and then he saw a figure open the curtain and come in, and he sat up, and in this room there was no one else who could come in without knocking, and there was no one but his father and mother.

"Xian'er, what's not pleasant," Mrs. Murong saw Murong Xian sitting on the bed, her hair and temples slightly messy, and her face, with a trace of pain, of course, that pain quickly dissipated,

Murong Xian rubbed his face with his hand, "It's okay, I'm tired today, why did my mother come over?"

Ever since he knew what Mrs. Murong had done to Ye Rong and Ye Qing's sisters, Murong Xian had always called her mother by her mother, and before, he always called her mother affectionately, but now, although the word mother is also the most beautiful term in the world, but he shouted it without a trace of warmth, but it made people feel unfamiliar,

Mrs. Murong knew that he was uncomfortable, so she forgave him for being so unfamiliar, she always thought that the mother and son did not have an overnight feud, his anger, his hatred, sooner or later will fade, she has time to wait for him, however, she can wait for him to forgive him, wait for him to come out of the shadows, and continue to make a big deal for his marriage, today, Mrs. Hou Ye has to thread the needle and lead the princess of the county and the county lord of Ning'an out to meet, this county lord of Ning'an looks beautiful, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, has just turned sixteen, has not yet married, and most importantly, She was born in a prince and noble, and she is an out-and-out lady, and she is not known how many times stronger than the woman who sells ingots and candle incense.

Of course, if he can be the son-in-law of the county king, Murong Xian can be described as having a bright future and a bright future.

Mrs. Murong sat on the chair and said softly, "Do you remember Mrs. Ning Qinghou?"

Mrs. Ning Qinghou is Ning Qinghou's step-room, when Murong Xian was young, he once went to Ning Qinghou's house to live for a while, at that time, Mrs. Ning Qinghou liked him very much, and once said that she would accept him as a righteous son, but because she already had three sons, she had to give up, but over the years, she has always maintained a very good relationship with Murong Xian, even Ning Qinghou was in the court, whenever someone targeted Murong Xian, he spoke up and solved many crises for Murong Xian,

Therefore, Murong Xian has great respect for Ning Qinghou and his wife,

"Naturally, I remember, but didn't Mrs. Ning Qinghou go to Huainan," Murong Xian asked,

"Come back, I made an appointment with you to eat tonight, originally said that I was eating at home, but then Hou Ye said that there was a Jiangnan chef in Juxian Building, and the dishes were delicious, you know Hou Ye, except for eating, there are good things to eat, he must be going to join in the fun, so he made an appointment in Juxian Building, if you are too tired, Wei Niang will return to them for you, saying that you are not feeling well, in that way, there will be no rudeness," Mrs. Murong retreated as advance, and said with a smile,

When Murong Xian heard that Mrs. Hou invited him to go, he naturally couldn't push it, and said, "Okay, then I'll change my clothes first, and my mother will go back and freshen up first, by the way, what about Dad,"

"Your father went to watch paintings with a few scholars, there is a talented man in the capital, outstanding painters, good at landscape painting, your father has always been good at this, don't you hurry up when you hear about it," Mrs. Murong smiled, trying to talk to him about some common topics,

Murong said, "Well, I see,"

In the evening, before the sun had completely set, the mother and son went out.

Murong Xian is dressed in a white brocade robe today, his face is slightly thinner than before, with sharp edges and corners, between his eyebrows, there are three points more melancholy, more dignified, such a man, at a glance, he knows that he is a person with a story, he has all his emotions in his heart, and he looks even more calm and depressed,

And today, Yin Le and Chu Ye also made an appointment to eat in Juxian Building, the two were in the same private room, in the middle, separated by only a screen, as soon as the two sat down, they heard someone next door talking,

"Master Hou, you said that it's not good for us to hide our rewards like this tonight," spoke in a low mezzo-soprano, with a hint of hesitation and guilt in her tone,

A rough male voice said, "Xian'er is twenty-six years old this year, like his age, to put it mildly, his son is seven or eight years old, just for the sake of a woman in a coffin shop, do you say it's worth it, if it's a good woman, it's just a woman who doesn't do anything clean,"

Chu Ye said in a low voice: "It's Ning Qinghou and his wife,"

Yin Le also lowered his voice and said, "The reward they are talking about will not be your bitter brother Murong Reward,"

Chu Ye shook his head, "I don't know, let's listen to it first, hey, I wanted to have a quiet meal with you tonight, but I blamed Guohan, let him come over early to book a private room, I don't know what happened to the mushrooms," In the end, his tone was a little displeased,

Yin Le reached out and stroked his eyebrows, comforting: "Isn't it better to do this now, I did it together,"

Chu Ye took her hand and asked, "Why don't we change places?"

Yin Le shook his head and gossiped: "No, wouldn't it be better for us to eavesdrop on other people's blind date banquets, besides, blind dates, I haven't seen blind dates yet, I want to see and understand,"

Chu Ye shook his head and said angrily: "What's so good-looking, Ah Xian will definitely not look down on that girl, he has someone in his heart,"
