Chapter 35: The Invitation of the Zhenguo Mansion
Yu Mingche expected it to be right, on the third day of returning to the imperial city, Mu Xiyun received an invitation from the Zhenguo Mansion, although the person who sent the letter invited King Yan, but also mentioned that he had missed her for a long time, and hoped to return to the door for reunion.
On that day, Yu Mingche and Mu Xiyun appeared at the door of the Zhenguo Mansion in full costume, and Mu Jianzhong and his wife Kou Huilan, as well as his eldest brother Mu Junjia, also brought his wife Ning to greet them at the door.
These important people, Yu Mingche, had taught Mu Xiyun more than once, so she also answered decently and did not show any flaws.
Mu Jianzhong's step-wife Kou Huilan pulled her to show kindness as soon as she saw Mu Xiyun, shushing the cold and asking for warmth, feeling closer than her mother, but Mu Xiyun's eyes peeked at the full disdain when Mu Junjia looked at her in her eyes, and thought that Mu Junjia was the brother of Sister Xiyun.
Now she is not Mu Xiyun herself, she has a divine power that mortals can't bear, and secondly, she is Princess Yan, and the people of the entire imperial city are rushing to make friends with her, she naturally won't give Kou Huilan this benefit, and cleaning up her affairs is still to come.
At lunchtime, a large group of people came to Hulala, all of whom humbly greeted Yu Mingche and Mu Xiyun, thinking that they were the cousins that Yu Mingche said.
Mu Jianzhong set up a few banquets in the mansion, Yu Mingche and Mu Xiyun were naturally the protagonists of the protagonists, sitting on Mu Jianzhong's right, and Mu Junjia and Kou Huilan on the left.
A chicken came up from the next person, Kou Huilan quickly sandwiched a chicken leg and put it into the bowl in front of Mu Xiyun, unexpectedly Yu Mingche caught it, and said to Kou Huilan with a smile.
"Mother-in-law cares about Yun'er very much, but Yun'er doesn't like to eat her left leg, she only likes to eat her right leg, so let your son-in-law accept it."
"Yes, I forgot, so Yun'er, you have to come back often, and your mother will cook you more delicious food, and see how thin you are." Kou Huilan was a little embarrassed, but she didn't know what Mu Xiyun liked to eat, so she could only give herself a round.
"Mother, do you say that you accuse King Yan of not taking good care of his sister?" Mu Junjia joked next to him that Kou Huilan's face turned red and she was very embarrassed.
"Big brother, don't be joking, Yun'er and I are not better at the border than in the imperial city, I have indeed wronged her, I hope my father-in-law and mother-in-law will forgive me!" Yu Mingche also continued Mu Junjia's words, not only did he stand up and salute Mu Jianzhong and Kou Huilan, which frightened everyone to stop their movements and look at them.
"King Yan is going to torture the old minister, although Yun'er is married to you, she is already Princess Yan, we have to salute when we see it, how should we deal with ourselves when you say this." Mu Jianzhong is also an old man, and in a few words, he suppressed Yu Mingche's words that he wanted to stir up trouble.
"Family banquet, family banquet, father-in-law, although I am the king of Yan, I am also your son-in-law, thank you for marrying such a good daughter to me, I can't ask for it." How could Yu Mingche not know Mu Jianzhong's thoughts, so he kicked the ball back again.
"King Yan, you are a noble scholar in the court, and you can't break the rules in our family."
The ball was kicked back and forth, but it made the people next to him stand up nervously, only Mu Xiyun watched with a smile on his face, and when he turned around, he happened to meet Mu Junjia's eyes, that kind of warm eyes In addition to Yu Mingche gave her, he was the second.
At this moment, a ten-year-old boy ran over, pointed at Mu Xiyun and shouted:
"You ugly girl, your yard daddy has promised me, what are you doing when you come back now? Hurry back to the border and eat sand! ”
Kou Huilan saw that her son ran out to make a scene, and quickly ran over to pull him away, and the child screamed ugly as she walked.
Mu Xiyun couldn't help it, the old lady was naturally beautiful, you actually called me an ugly girl, it seems that Sister Yi Yi Yun is not less angry with you, I will help her give you a look at the color.
After thinking about it, he pinched a fire trick in the palm of his hand and threw it out, how could the eyes of mortals see these things, only to see that the kid was pulled by her mother and suddenly covered his face and cried, Kou Huilan couldn't see it, her son's face seemed to be burned by fire, blood flowed, and flesh and blood were blurred.
Mu Jianzhong and Yu Mingche's drama came to an end here, Mu Jianzhong saw that his youngest son was injured for unknown reasons, and quickly scolded the nurse and the subordinates, and after ordering Lang Zhong to come, he drank with Yu Mingche again.
Mu Xiyun thought that Mu Jianzhong was really a ruthless person, and he didn't even look at it when he saw that his son was injured, not to mention that Kou Huilan was still there, and if she and her brother died early, she was afraid that she had suffered a lot of grievances, and she was really resentful in her heart, and she was afraid that others would see her smug expression, so she covered her face and stuck it to Yu Mingche and cried
"Lord Wang, I shed a lot of blood, I'm afraid." Yu Mingche knew that this was all done by his good princess, and he also accompanied her to act, hugged her and comforted her gently, and bowed his head to ask her
"It's just a child, don't be so ruthless."
"A child dares to bully me, and I am light. Instead, you'd already be rolling all over the floor. Mu Xiyun lay on him and replied gently
After coming over for a while, Mu Xiyun wiped away her tears, took out a porcelain bottle from her sleeve and handed it to Mu Jianzhong
"Father, my little brother was injured just now, I think it should have accidentally burned the ghost fire, if it is not treated well, it will leave a scar, I have a bottle of Taiyi Fire Cream here, just apply it, but you can't see the wind within a month, you can't eat meat, otherwise it will be useless." Mu Xiyun smiled in his heart, originally that fire trick didn't use one percent of his power, he naturally wouldn't leave any scars in the future, just casually take a bottle of tonic out and talk nonsense, that kid is ignorant and can't go out for a month and can't eat meat, which is a heavy enough punishment.
"Yun'er, how did you know how to heal?" Mu Jianzhong took the porcelain vase and asked suspiciously.
"My father-in-law didn't know that when I was in Qiyun Town, there was a master who accepted Yun'er as an apprentice and taught her some medical skills." Her princess was open-mouthed, so she could only come out to help her round the field.
"Yun'er still has such an opportunity, it is really the blessing of King Yan." Although Mu Jianzhong didn't say it on the surface, after all, he was still a little distressed by his own son, and when he saw Mu Xiyun take out the elixir, he hurriedly handed it over to the next person and sent it over.
"Father-in-law, where do I have any blessings, it is Yun'er who cures the disease, in the final analysis, you teach it well, and you will have to teach your son-in-law more in the future."
"Okay, then since King Yan is asking for advice, I happen to have an endgame, why don't you accompany me to solve one or two?" After speaking, he put on a posture of please, Yu Mingche glanced at Mu Xiyun and followed Mu Jianzhong to the inner courtyard with a smile.
The luncheon was over, everyone was scattered, and everyone rushed to him for the younger brother's affairs, leaving only Mu Xiyun and Mu Junjia.
"Sister, how are you doing?" Mu Junjia looked at Mu Xiyun's eyes very gently.
"Big brother, I'm fine, I hope you're okay too." Mu Xiyun also said to Mu Junjia with a smile.
Mu Junjia looked at Ning's distant back, suddenly became a little lonely, patted Mu Xiyun's shoulder and stopped talking.
Mu Xiyun knew that the eldest brother's marriage would not be happy, and it must also be a step for his father to maintain his network, but unfortunately both of them became objects in the hands of their fathers, they were a chess piece when they were happy, and they might become a sharp blade when they were unhappy.
"Big brother, happiness is more important than anything else, and fate should be in your own hands."
"Yun'er, you have grown up, and my brother is not as good as you now." After Mu Junjia finished speaking, he turned around and left silently, leaving Mu Xiyun alone in the entire courtyard.
