"Nonsense, there is no woman who doesn't get married." Old Madam Mu scolded with a sullen face.
"Grandma..." Mu Qianxue's eyes turned red and tears streamed down. She lay obediently on Madam Mu's lap and sobbed, "Grandma, Xue'er went out when she was eight years old. Although she had a wet nurse by her side, she was still a wet nurse after all. She raised Xue'er, but we are not blood relatives. There is not a single day that Xue'er doesn't miss you and mother."
"Now that Xue'er has finally returned and hasn't enjoyed enough family love, are you willing to marry her off?"
When she said this, Madam Mu felt a pain in her heart and she reached out to rub Mu Qianxue's head.
"How could grandma bear to let you get married?"
"Grandma wishes you could stay with her for a few more years, but you've already reached marriage age, and it's hard for older girls to get married. Grandma is afraid of delaying your marriage."
"It's okay." Mu Qianxue buried her head in the old lady's arms, "Xue'er can choose first. If you find the right one, you can settle down first. Grandma, on your 66th birthday next year, Xue'er can get married."
Mu Qianxue raised her head and looked at the old lady with a smile: "It would be a double blessing at that time, how wonderful it would be."
Madam Mu smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll keep you for another year."
"Oh, by the way, there are palace banquets during the Spring Festival. This year, Grandmother will take you to the palace. If you have a favorite young man, tell Grandmother."
Mu Qianxue: "Okay."
Madam Mu gave Mu Qianxue a few more instructions and then let her go back.
"Grandma is tired, you should go back early."
"Yes." Mu Qianxue stood up, took a thin blanket and covered Madam Mu with it.
"It's cold, grandma, please keep warm."
Madam Mu nodded: "Grandma knows."
Mu Qianxue then left. As soon as she walked outside, her smiling face drooped instantly.
Chang Xiao appeared out of nowhere, stepped forward, and asked, "Second Miss, did the old lady give you any trouble?"
"No." She paused, her originally gentle eyes becoming cold, "She wants to marry me off."
Chang Xiao's expression changed instantly when he heard this.
"Second Miss..." He didn't know how to start, but he just didn't want the Second Miss to get married, even though he knew the idea was ridiculous.
Mu Qianxue glanced at Chang Xiao and said impatiently, "Look how anxious you are. I didn't agree to it."
"How can I think of getting married if things are not settled well?"
Chang Xiao: "Second Miss, just follow my instructions and deal with Gu Yunran directly."
"When the Second Miss completes her mission and obtains the antidote, my men will take her away to a place where no one knows us. Then we..."
Before Chang Xiao could finish his words, he was interrupted by Mu Qianxue.
"Shut up!" She glanced at Chang Xiao coldly, "Don't think you have a chance just because I look at you twice."
"The man I want to marry in the future is a rare talent like my second brother."
After Mu Qianxue finished speaking, she didn't even look at Chang Xiao again and left.
Chang Xiao stood there, head down, feeling very uncomfortable. He clenched his fists tightly and muttered softly: "I know, I understand!"
"My subordinates shouldn't be so wishful thinking."
Although he felt very sad, he couldn't help but follow.
After quickly sorting out his thoughts, Chang Xiao said, "Second Miss, what should we do next?"
Mu Qianxue: "Let's hold back and wait for an opportunity. I believe Jiaojiao will not give up after suffering such a great injustice."
"yes."
Mu Qianxue suddenly raised her eyes, looked at Chang Xiao, and said with a sweet laugh: "Come to see me in the evening."
Hearing this, Chang Xiao's eyes lit up. He raised his head and looked at Mu Qianxue with a happy smile on his face.
"good."
His body was shaking uncontrollably.

Biyun Pavilion.
"Miss, why do you think the old lady called the second lady over?" Zhuye was combing Gu Yunran's hair.
"Knock." Gu Yunran looked at himself in the bronze mirror. He had gained a lot of weight recently. It seemed that he needed to control his diet.
"Knock?" Zhuye frowned. "The old lady knows that the second young lady..."
Before Zhuye finished speaking, Gu Yunran chuckled and said, "The old lady is a shrewd person."
"She is able to sit firmly in the harem of such a huge family business and manage it in an orderly manner. She is no ordinary person."
"In this Mu Mansion, she knows everyone's thoughts clearly, like a mirror."
Zhuye was startled: "Fortunately, fortunately, the old lady is sensible, otherwise the young lady's life would be difficult."
Gu Yunran lowered her head and said nothing. Zhuye smoothed her hair. Gu Yunran took off her coat and went to sleep.
The night was cold, and the charcoal fire in the house was a little warmer.
Mu Qianxue sat in front of the window, wearing a white gauze coat, staring out blankly.
It was snowing outside, and the wind blew gently, sending snowflakes flying everywhere, creating a unique scene.
Knock knock!
There was a slight knock on the door. Mu Qianxue stood up and opened the door. Seeing the person outside, she said, "Come in."
The person outside came in and saw Mu Qianxue wearing a gauze dress, especially her skin as white as jade, he couldn't help swallowing his saliva.
"Miss, I, your subordinate..." Chang Xiao was so nervous that he was a little incoherent.
"Look, what have you accomplished." Mu Qianxue walked to the bed and sat down. She lifted her feet, revealing her jade-like little feet.
"Come here." She waved to Chang Xiao, "What are you doing standing there?"
