Chapter 169 Booked through the backdoor

After the three of them left, Xu's mother closed the door and asked, "Muhua, tell me the truth, what's going on?"

If it was any other place, forget it, but Yufenglou is a place where even if you have money and power, you may not be able to book a private room. The three of them have a good relationship with their eldest son, but the eldest son is not in the capital at the moment, and he has only met Muhua twice. Why would he help book a seat in Yufenglou during the Lantern Festival just for this relationship?

Xu Jinyu was also very surprised. He didn't expect Xu Muhua to hook up with his eldest brother's friends!

"Mom, what are you thinking? Firstly, it's indeed because of my eldest brother, and secondly, it's because they know that mahjong was invented by me. Didn't they come to our house to play during the Chinese New Year? They liked it very much, so when they knew we were planning to go out and play during the Lantern Festival, they asked for help to reserve a table."

She lowered her voice and said, "Mom, don't worry. My eldest brother Feng and the owner of Yufenglou are old friends. They used the back door to reserve a table for us, and it didn't cost much money. Just think of it as my eldest brother owing them a favor, and he will have a chance to repay them in the future."

"Really?"

Mother Xu was skeptical.

"Mom, you know how fun mahjong is! Why would I lie to you? Oh, mom, why do I find that you have very low trust in me now?"

Xu's mother glared at her, "How dare you ask me, what good things have you done that you need me to remind you?"

"Mom, you really are such a fool. It was so long ago, how come you still remember it?"

"How long ago? It happened years ago! I don't remember. If I remind you occasionally, can you remember the lesson?"

Xu Muhua clasped her hands together and begged, "Mom, please let me go and stop nagging! I'm about to grow cords on my ears!"

Xu's mother was immediately amused by her and reached out to strangle her. She couldn't bear to use any strength, so she could only glare at her and give up.

"Hey, mother, don't worry about scolding my eldest sister, come and see, it's so beautiful!"

Xu Nan was lying in front of the window looking at the scenery below, shouting happily, and she didn't forget to call Xu Jinyu who was quietly beside her, "Second sister, come and see, look at the lanterns below, they are so beautiful!"

No wonder every year there are people scrambling to reserve a seat in Yufeng Tower, even if a seat is worth a thousand gold.

Now that they are here, Xu's mother's heart also became lively for a while, holding Xu Jinyu's hand, standing up, walking to the window and looking down, she couldn't help but exclaimed: "It's really beautiful!"

It was as dazzling as the Milky Way in the sky, making people reluctant to blink.

At this time, the sky had completely darkened. On Zhuque Street, all kinds of lanterns of different sizes and unique shapes were lit up one by one. There were more and more people, and even on the upper floors, one could still clearly hear the bustling sounds of people coming and going below.

There were sounds of people guessing lantern riddles, the sounds of vendors hawking, the sounds of passers-by laughing, the sounds of the yamen runners who maintained order, and the occasional cheers. It must be that some talented man or woman guessed the lantern riddle again and got the lantern they wanted.

Xu Muhua leaned on the windowsill with one hand and smiled at the fireworks below, feeling a rare peace in her heart. It seemed that at this moment, she finally had a sense of belonging, and truly felt that she was in a world of different time and space. Already a member here, not just an outsider.

She sighed.

What a fucking experience!

Xu Muhua's sharp eyes allowed her to accurately find a familiar figure from the surging crowd! Her big golden legs!

And beside her big golden legs was a man with an imposing manner, who was our male protagonist!

Xu Muhua subconsciously shouted to the crowd downstairs: "Arong!"

Suddenly, several people standing by the window to watch the scenery were startled by her!

Turning their heads, they saw her waving her hands vigorously, shouting Arong with all her might.

Xu's mother couldn't help but hold her forehead, secretly thanking that it was lively tonight and there were a lot of people downstairs, so her shouting didn't seem too scary. Otherwise, it would be so embarrassing! How could a lady from a wealthy family do this?

However, thinking about what her eldest daughter had done in the past six months, Xu's mother's expression became dull. She felt that her eldest daughter was getting further and further away from the standard of a lady from a wealthy family.

Pei Shaorong, who was passing by, faintly heard someone calling Arong. At first, she thought she had heard it wrong. Just as she was about to continue walking forward, the voice of Arong became louder, and it seemed a little familiar... like Mu Hua's voice!

She looked left and right, and finally looked up subconsciously when she heard the voice, and saw that brilliant smiling face. She also smiled reflexively and waved her hand.

Pei Shaorong wanted to go upstairs to Yufeng Tower, but after two steps, he remembered something and stopped. He turned around to look at the person who had been following him. He smiled shyly and said, "Mr. Zhao, I'm going upstairs to find my friends. You..."

Zhao Chengye of course also saw the people upstairs and said, "I'll go upstairs to pay my respects to the wife of Duke Chengguo!"

This meant that Zhao Chengye's current identity was no longer that of a prince, but simply that of a junior.

Pei Shaorong certainly couldn't refuse. The two of them walked in front, followed by maids and guards, and came to the Tianzi box together.

Of course, Xu's mother knew Zhao Chengye. When she saw him, she quickly stood up and was about to salute, but he stopped her in time, "Madam, there's no need to be polite. Just treat me as an ordinary junior."

Xu's mother laughed in her heart.

The Xu family has no relationship with the royal family, so how could they dare to treat a popular prince as their junior!

Everyone knows that Pei Shaorong and Xu Muhua have a good relationship. As soon as they met, they held each other's hands warmly.

Pei Shaorong was a little excited and had a lot to say to her. But there were people around, so she couldn't say anything, and her eyes were full of emotions.

Xu Muhua patted the back of her hand soothingly, indicating that he knew everything.

Mother Xu saw something as she looked at it. She said, "It's getting late. I'm old, so I won't mess around with you young people. If you want to continue shopping, you can stay. Mu Hua, you are the eldest sister, you must take good care of your younger brothers and sisters. I will go back home first."

Zhao Chengye said quickly, "Madam, please rest assured. I will let the guards follow and protect you."

Mother Xu smiled and said, "Thank you."

With the Fifth Prince, there is no need to worry about safety.

It's just that the Fifth Prince seems to have feelings for Miss Pei. If it really works out, the relationship between Mu Hua and Miss Pei... Mother Xu couldn't help but feel a little worried when she thought of this.
