As the dawn broke in the early morning, everyone in the Mu family began to get busy, because today was the third day of the little lucky baby Mu Li's bath.
Even though only the emperor, empress and a few members of the Feng family knew about Mu Li's birth, the Mu family still held a grand ceremony behind closed doors. After all, how could they not pamper the lucky little star who had broken the family's century-old curse?
"Everyone, be careful and don't make any mistakes. If you do a good job, everyone will be rewarded!" The head of the Mu family stood in the yard, grinning from ear to ear.
"Yes." Everyone responded in unison with smiles on their faces.
"Master, Madam, the old lady of the Feng family, the head of the Feng family, and Young Master Feng are here!" At this time, Wen Da walked in and reported.
"So early? Come in! Go and ask the Madam to come out! And tell the first Madam by the way." After saying that, the head of the Mu family quickly walked towards the door.
"Yes." The two maids ran to the backyard respectively.
"Madam, father-in-law, and nephew, you are here? Please come in!" The head of the Mu family walked forward with a bitter look on his face and welcomed them into the house. The servants quickly closed the door.
"Jun'an, why aren't you happy at all on such a happy day today?" Old Madam Feng asked curiously.
Madam Fufeng, the head of the Mu family, sat down at the main seat and ordered the servants to bring tea and snacks before explaining to everyone, "There have been a lot of spies outside the mansion these days, and their motives are unclear. I was afraid that Xiao Li'er's birth would attract the attention of those with ulterior motives and harm her, so I pretended to be sad to confuse them."
"So that's how it is." Everyone in Feng Mansion suddenly understood.
At this time, Mrs. Mu walked into the lobby in a hurry.
"Madam, father-in-law, Yi Ning is late, please forgive me!" Bai Yining, the old lady of the Mu family, hurriedly apologized.
"Haha, it's okay. We came too early. Please don't blame us for being rude." Old Lady Feng said with a smile.
"How could that be? We are so happy! Madam, let them sit here. I will help you go to A Yue to rest for a while. They should be up by now." Bai Yining said while supporting Madam Feng.
"Okay, okay, I can't wait to see my little great-grandson..." Old Lady Feng said impatiently.
"Let me tell you, that little girl..." Bai Yining said as she walked with Old Madam Feng in her arms, her joy beyond words.
"Shall we go sit in the study?" The head of the Mu family looked at the eager expressions of the Feng family father and son and felt inexplicably funny.
"Let's go see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince first!" Feng Tianxiang said, thinking of the seriously injured Mo Xi.
"Okay, please!" said the head of the Mu family.
At the back door of the Mu Mansion, a food delivery truck was parked at the door, and a woman dressed as a village girl was quietly following an old man.
"Hey, Mr. Zhang, why aren't you and your son here today? Who is this?" The kitchen manager looked at Mr. Zhang in confusion and asked.
"To answer the manager, this is my wife. My son broke his leg while working in the fields yesterday, so I can only bring my wife to help today." Old man Zhang felt nervous and nodded.
"Oh, is that so! Then you send her in yourself, and she doesn't have to go in! The house has been uneasy lately, and we can't afford any consequences if anything happens." The steward said cautiously.
"Ah? This? There are so many dishes, I can't move them by myself!" Old man Zhang said in embarrassment.
"Don't worry, I'll arrange someone to help you!" The manager said and called the people in the kitchen to help.
"Okay." Old man Zhang looked at the woman behind him cautiously and slowly moved the vegetables from the cart.
"Old man, I'm going to the Ruyi Bakery in the city. My granddaughter said she wants to eat the mung bean cakes there. I'm going to buy some. You can meet me there later." The woman suddenly said to Old Man Zhang, "Remember, Ruyi Bakery."
"Oh, I understand. You can go." Old man Zhang paused and said.
Not long after, Feng Lingyue's personal maid Zi Fu appeared at the gate of the Mu Mansion.
"Aunt Zifu, are you going out?" the guard at the door asked respectfully, "Do you need a carriage arranged for you?"
"Well, Madam wants to eat the mung bean cake from the shop in the city. She asked me to go buy it back quickly. You go and arrange a carriage to take me there." Zi Fu said in a cold voice with a blank expression.
"Okay, I'll go right away."
After a while, the servant drove the carriage to the door. After Zi Fu got on, the carriage slowly drove towards the city.
"Go, follow her and keep a close eye on her!" Mu Feng said in a deep voice.
"Yes." A figure disappeared in the Mu Mansion.
Mu Mansion, Songbai Courtyard.
As soon as Mu Li woke up, she saw everyone busy at work.
"Huh? What happened? Why are everyone so busy and happy?" Mu Li stretched in confusion.
"Oh, my little darling is awake? Come and let great-grandmother see him!" Old Lady Feng, who was always keeping an eye on Mu Li, noticed that Mu Li was awake at the first moment and said in surprise.
"Great-grandmother? Wow, what an charismatic old lady. She must have been a strong woman when she was young!" Mu Li heard the voice and turned around to see a dignified and elegant old lady sitting beside the bed talking to her mother.
"Li'er, this is mother's grandmother, your great-grandmother. Your great-grandmother takes care of the Feng Mansion from top to bottom, inside and out. She is very powerful!" Feng Lingyue said with a smile when she heard her daughter's voice.
"Wow~ a strong woman of our time! I admire you!" Mu Li's big eyes flickered with admiration and curiosity.
"Look at this child, his eyes are full of admiration, as if they can speak!" Bai Yining said with a smile.
"My little great-grandson is so smart..." Old Madam Feng was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling.
"Wow, my heroic grandmother is here too. She looks really beautiful today!" Mu Li heard Bai Yining's voice and turned to look at her.
