Yang Xin looked at Mu Xue who was walking in front of her, wondering why she was here.
She knew that Mu Xue had heard Mu Chen mention her before, and the only time they had met was when they drank together in the restaurant last time.
But it was just a one-time encounter. Could it be that the princess came to see her...
Yang Xin didn't dare to think further. Apart from that person, she really couldn't understand Mu Xue's purpose in looking for her.
"Ms. Yang."
Mu Xue's voice brought Yang Xin back to her senses. She smiled softly and raised her hand.
"Princess, please come in."
The two went to Yang Xin's quiet courtyard and sat down by the window in the house.
Yang Xin picked up the cup on the table and poured a cup of tea for Mu Xue.
She tried to keep her voice as natural as possible.
"My princess, is there something you want to see me for?"
Mu Xue took the tea, looked at Yang Xin, and stated her purpose directly.
"Second Auntie wants to invite Miss Yang to visit the Mu Mansion, but she's worried it wouldn't be a good idea for her to come rashly, so she asked me to be the messenger. As for whether to go or not, it's all up to Miss Yang herself."
When Yang Xin heard the word "Mu Mansion", her hand trembled while pouring tea, and a few drops of tea spilled onto the table.
She quickly put down her tea and took out her handkerchief to wipe the tea spilled on the table to cover up her gaffe.
"I'm willing to trouble you, Princess."
Madam Mu treated her very well. In the past, every time Brother Shen went to Jiangzhou, he would bring the materials carefully prepared by Madam Mu and the popular hair accessories in the capital.
Even when she was exchanging letters with Brother Shen, Madam Mu would greet her and her family.
If it were someone else, she would probably think this was a Hongmen Banquet, but since it was Madam Mu who proposed it, she must really want to meet her, so let's talk it out.
Now that both families are in the capital, it is inevitable that they will meet sometimes, so it would be better to talk it out.
Upon hearing this, Mu Xue was a little surprised that Yang Xin made the decision so quickly.
Yang Xin knew very well how much her cousin cared about her. If she really went to his house, she would inevitably see her cousin's wife. Could Yang Xin really restrain herself from losing her composure?
"Okay," Mu Xue stood up, "Then I'll go report to my second aunt."
After sending Mu Xue out of the house, Yang Xin returned home absent-mindedly.
At dinner time.
Lord Yang and Madam Yang both saw that she was worried.
"What's wrong with Xin'er?" Mrs. Yang asked immediately.
The Yang family doesn't have the saying of not talking while eating or sleeping. As long as there are no guests, they can do whatever they want.
Yang Xin looked up and saw that her parents were staring at her. She pretended to be nothing and shook her head.
"My daughter is thinking about what to wear when she goes to the Mu Mansion."
This may be enough to fool others.
"Is this the reason why the princess came to our house today?" Lord Yang picked up a piece of fish belly and offered it to Yang Xin. "If Xin'er doesn't want to go, just refuse."
They all saw the relationship between their daughter and Mu Chen. Now that Mu Chen is married, if their daughter went there, it would be like rubbing salt into the wound.
Yang Xin picked up the fish in the bowl, pursed her lips and smiled, "Don't worry, Dad and Mom, I've already agreed. It's okay."
She spoke the following words in a low voice, and it was unclear whether she was talking to the two of them or to herself.
The two looked at each other and stopped talking. Seeing that their daughter was in a good mood recently, they thought that Mu Chen was a thing of the past. Now it seems that their daughter was just pretending because she was afraid that they would worry.
If it weren’t for that time-traveling girl, my daughter’s marriage wouldn’t have turned out like this.
Although Mu Chen's father only held a sinecure, Mu Chen was a promising man. He was the top scorer in the imperial examination and now served as an editor in the Hanlin Academy.
"Mom and Dad, my daughter is full."
Yang Xin picked up a handkerchief, wiped his lips, stood up and returned to his yard.
During this period, she tried hard not to think about the Mu family's affairs. She kept herself busy by dealing with Prince Yueqing to forget those beautiful memories, but as soon as she was free, she found that everything was in vain.
…
When Mrs. Mu learned that Yang Xin agreed, she was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling.
He hurriedly ordered someone to pass the note to Yang Xin.
When Mu Chen knew about this, Yang Xin had already arrived at the Mu Mansion.
She was wearing a light green dress and walking through the corridor. Mu Chen saw her profile from a distance and thought he was seeing things. He raised his hand to rub his eyes and asked the person serving him.
"Who is that woman?"
The attendant glanced in the direction she pointed and said respectfully, "That's Miss Yang. Madam has invited her to visit the mansion."
Mu Chen's heart suddenly tightened, and he lost all sleepiness in an instant and went back to his room to change clothes.
When the servant, who was still in a daze, came to his senses, Mu Chen had changed his clothes and returned to him.
"Let's go to the front yard and take a look."
Before the servant could say something, Mu Chen had already strode towards the front yard.
Yang Xin was a little nervous at first, but after being led through the corridor to the yard and seeing several familiar people, he felt a lot more relieved.
[This Madam Mu is quite considerate. Worried that her family might make Yang Xin uncomfortable, she specifically asked the hostess to bring some girls Yang Xin is familiar with to relieve Yang Xin from any pressure.]
[What a sin! A good marriage was ruined by a time-traveling girl.]
Yu Yiluo was in the fifth princess's arms, sucking her fingers.
She couldn't understand why the tyrant wanted the fifth princess to take her out for a walk today.
Could it be that he sensed her unhappiness?
"Xin'er is here, come and sit down."
Yang Xin nodded to a few people and was enthusiastically pulled by Mrs. Mu to sit next to them.
Qin Qianqian saw Yang Xin appear, leaned over to Mu Xue's ear and whispered, "Sister Xue, you are such a kind person. You brought us here to join in the fun."
It’s a pity that the Sixth Princess was punished to copy Buddhist scriptures, and Sister Yan didn’t come either.
“Xin’er, this is Chen’er’s wife Xiaoxiao.”
Xu Xiaoxiao was sitting on the right side of Madam Mu. After Yang Xin came over, she subconsciously looked at Yang Xin.
She knew that this was her cousin's ex-fiancée, and the person who had made her cousin absent-minded in recent days.
[Emma, does this count as a Shura field?]
The fifth princess, who was worried that Yu Yiluo was bored, curled her lips when she heard this.
No wonder Luo'er kept clamoring for her to come to Mu Mansion with the princess. It turned out they wanted to watch the fun.
Fortunately, she is thick-skinned, otherwise Madam Mu probably wouldn't want her to come.
After all, with the princess around, the person who felt uncomfortable became Mrs. Mu herself.
Yang Xin looked at Xu Xiaoxiao. Xu Xiaoxiao was beautiful and had a friendly smile on her face. She seemed like someone who was easy to get along with.
"Hello, sister-in-law."
As soon as these words came out, Yang Xin almost lost half of his strength.
While she was looking at Xu Xiaoxiao, Xu Xiaoxiao was also looking at her.
Although Xu Xiaoxiao had never met Yang Xin before, she knew that both her cousin and aunt praised Yang Xin highly.
She retracted her gaze, pursed her lips and smiled, "I often heard my cousin and aunt mention you before. I am older than you. Since you call me sister-in-law, I will call you Sister Xin'er, okay?"
Yang Xin was surprised by Xu Xiaoxiao's kindness towards her and smiled back.
"Okay," she took out the gift she had prepared, "This is a wedding gift for my sister-in-law and Brother Mu. I hadn't been to the capital when you got married, and I had planned to make up for it when I got there, but I never had the time."
"Now I am making it up to Brother Mu and Sister-in-law. I wish you and Brother Mu a long and happy life together."
