Chapter 79 Is the second sister engaged?
Upon hearing this, Mu Junyan glanced at the old lady and said gently, "Mother, Ruoyun's sister is here to celebrate your birthday."
"Ruoyun?"
The old lady narrowed her eyes slightly and tilted her head to recall, "I don't remember, who is it?"
Mu Junyan said nothing.
Yi Niang hurriedly said, "Madam, it's your deceased daughter-in-law."
"Daughter-in-law?"
The old lady suddenly realized, "Oh, that evil old woman in the palace wanted to harm my son and forced that sickly girl in here? She said she was my daughter-in-law, didn't she? I, an old woman, have never even met her once."
The house was quiet.
Mu Junyan's originally depressed mood suddenly brightened up. In front of the stunned Mu Silang and Mu Liulang, he couldn't show that he wanted to laugh too much, so he coughed twice.
She said softly, "Mother, the Queen Mother means well. She is a junior who wants to meet you and wish you a happy birthday. How about we go and meet her?"
"Hmph, Empress Dowager? I can do it if I want!" The old lady raised her head proudly.
Gu Huan, who was hiding aside, turned her eyes away.
Um?
Zhou Zhilan opened her eyes wide, as if she had heard something new.
Mu Silang quickly turned his head to look out the window, with an expression of admiring the leaves outside.
Even the lively and simple Mu Liulang noticed something was wrong and didn't know where to put his eyes.
From the moment Mu An entered the room, he was attracted by Gu Huan's beautiful smile. He had never seen such a bright smile of hers before.
Those eyes seemed to be glued to Gu Huan. Gu Wanru glared at Gu Huan angrily with an unchanging expression.
Just when everyone was at a loss, Mu Junyan said calmly: "An'er and his wife, Silang, and Liulang, come with me to meet the guests."
When Gu Huan heard what he said, she knew that he wanted her to move aside, so she quietly pulled Zhou Zhilan away like an invisible man.
This is a family matter and has nothing to do with her as an outsider.
Gu Wanru felt better when she saw her leave. She gently pulled Mu An's sleeve and called softly, "Husband, let's go."
Mu An then withdrew his gaze from Gu Huan'ena's back and glanced at his wife who was applying strong perfume to cover up the body odor of the bleeding after the miscarriage. He could not hide his disgust.
Without saying anything, he followed Mu Junyan and the others.
Gu Wanru, who was left behind, was so angry that her eyes turned red and tears almost fell.
But now was her chance to win back Mu An and re-establish her image as a young lady, so she quickly wiped away her tears and chased after him.
The group who originally wanted to attend the birthday banquet had to follow the old lady Mu Junyan to the front yard.
Mu Feng, who was following Mu Junyan, saw her catching up, and suddenly slowed down his pace and called her affectionately, "Sister-in-law."
Gu Wanru nodded with a smile. She was the only person in the Mu family who smiled at her sincerely.
Mu Feng Xiaobai blushed, and with a bit of shyness, he mustered up the courage to ask in a low voice: "Sister-in-law, I want to ask, is your second sister engaged?"
Although he was the eldest son of the third wife, the Yongguo Mansion gave him enough inheritance when the family was divided. He did not need to bear the family responsibility. His parents only hoped that he could find a stable job in the government, marry a wife and have children.
I fell in love with Gu Huan as soon as I saw her today.
Mu Junyan, who was walking in front, paused and looked back at him.
Mu Feng, whose mind was completely on Gu Huan, didn't notice and just kept staring at Gu Wanru.
When Gu Wanru noticed her father's gaze, her mind suddenly became active.
Smiling, he said, "Her aunt did introduce her to a few families. It was said that her cousin from her aunt's family liked her very much, but that cousin was already married and vowed not to take concubines. I don't think it will work out. So I took her to live in the Duke's Mansion, hoping to give her a chance to see more suitable men."
Mu Junyan suddenly stopped, and even the old lady turned around.
Mu Feng now felt two gazes. When he looked up, he was stared at by a pair of cold eyes like a knife unsheathed.
Even the old lady who had been laughing all the way had a meaningful look in her eyes.
Mu Feng's smile froze instantly.
I didn't know what expression to make for a moment. Did he do something wrong?
"Grandma, Uncle, what's wrong?" He asked cautiously out of fear.
Mu Junyan motioned for him to follow.
Mu Feng trotted forward happily and walked slowly with their steps.
"Your mother is urging you to get married?"
Mu Feng scratched his head and said, "No, I'm still young. My mother just mentioned a few places to look at."
His face turned red again, and he lowered his voice: "Second uncle, you know me, I am not very smart, and I don't want to marry a rich lady. I just want to find a woman with a good temperament, who knows how to understand my feelings, and stay with me like an ordinary person. Mother doesn't force it, she just hopes to find a sensible and well-behaved daughter-in-law."
The young man's ears turned red. He mustered up all his courage to choose a wife for himself.
The boy's thoughts could not be concealed between his words.
I almost want to just say that it’s written on her face that Gu Huan is suitable for him.
Mu Junyan glanced at the excited boy calmly: "Well. Do you have someone you like? Second uncle can act as a matchmaker for you."
The old lady couldn't help but quickly rolled her eyes.
Her old son is jealous.
Mu Feng's eyes lit up when he heard this, as if a flame was about to burst out, and he rubbed his hands together in excitement: "I wonder if my sister-in-law's second sister is okay?"
Mu Junyan walked steadily and spoke calmly, "Is it your first day meeting her?"
The young man didn't notice the displeasure in his uncle's tone at all, and just excitedly spoke out his thoughts, but he knew that Mu Junyan attached great importance to rules.
Afraid that he would suspect Gu Huan of misbehaving, she quickly suppressed her joy.
He explained in a low voice, "It was the first day we met, and we didn't even say a word just now. My nephew was very well behaved when he saw her, and his eyes didn't look around at all. So my nephew couldn't help but ask my sister-in-law rashly just now. Second uncle, please don't blame my second sister."
The young man was so anxious that his face turned red, and he kept glancing at Gu Wanru behind him, fearing that she would think he was being rude to her second sister.
Mu Junyan's mind flashed with the girl's face as white as jade, and she was smiling and pretty beside her mother.
It is indeed eye-catching.
No wonder I fall in love with her every time I see her.
Not to mention Pei Yi and Mu Feng, even I myself, who had been guarding for so many years, still failed to gain defense.
It was like once I touched you, I didn't want to let go, and I didn't want to let go even at midnight.
"How could I blame her... She is just a junior. Since she lives in the Duke's Mansion, I, as the head of the family, naturally have to care about her."
Mu Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Unexpectedly, Mu Junyan asked again: "If you marry her, will she be your wife or concubine?"
Mu Feng didn't even think about it, "Of course it's for my wife."
"You only met her once and you decided she could be your wife?"
"One side is enough."
Mu Feng blurted out, and then quickly added embarrassedly.
"My nephew has also seen some noble ladies of marriageable age, and I really don't like those pretentious women. Second sister has a beautiful appearance and a simple temperament, and she doesn't have those pretentious attitudes of noble ladies."
Mu Junyan's eyes turned a little colder.
The young man was completely unaware and continued, "My mother wouldn't dislike a concubine's child. My father and mother were both concubines' children, and they are doing fine now, aren't they? It's just that my second sister seems to be a little weak."
Mu Feng thought back to that beautiful girl, whose face was pale and flushed, but she looked a little weak.
However, he soon smiled happily and said, "She is young. If she is well taken care of, she will surely recover soon."
Mu Junyan said calmly: "She is about the same age as you."
Mu Feng blushed: "I am a man. Although I am older, I also learned horse riding and archery, which makes me very powerful."
strength?
Mu Junyan immediately thought of that delicate and fragile waist.
"Yan'er, you hurt your mother."
The old lady glared at him reproachfully.
Mu Junyan twitched the corner of his mouth and quickly loosened his palm which had inadvertently exerted force.
Mu Feng became more and more excited, feeling that he would be able to marry the second sister soon.
He even planned how to ask his mother to bring a matchmaker to the house and how to arrange the marriage.
Glancing at the boy immersed in happiness, Mu Junyan raised his eyebrows.
If he knew what the woman who called her "Second Sister" affectionately looked like on the bed, and knew who her first man was, he didn't know how he would feel.
Young men are easily fascinated by sex.
After just one glance, he thought he could see the true face of the person in front of him.
childish.
