, Loyal Marquis and His Son

The two maids in light green clothes were from the Mu family, and were specifically responsible for serving those who came to the chrysanthemum lantern viewing party in the garden. When they saw Ye Wenru and his party, they immediately bowed and greeted them.

These two maids happened to know Ye Wenru and Shen Ziju. One of them was the prime minister, and the other was the new second place in the imperial examination. They had all come to the Mu family to pay a visit to their masters. They were young, talented and good-looking. One was in a high position, and the other was destined to be in a high position in the future. Naturally, they were remembered by these little maids whose hearts were beginning to flutter.

"Master Ye, Master Shen, we two servants are here to welcome guests. Please bring your family and friends with us to rest in Qiuyi Shuixie."

A maid said.

Another maid quickly added, "It's sunset now, so it's a great place to watch the sunset. There are chrysanthemums to admire by the lake and in the pavilion, and there are also fragrant tea and snacks, which is very interesting. Quite a few guests have already gone there, and I'm sure there must be many adult friends."

Ye Wenru nodded after hearing this, and Shen Ziju naturally nodded as well, letting the maid lead the way.

The one of the two maids who spoke first stepped aside and made a gesture of invitation, then led the way. When the other one saw this, she could only step aside, and after Ye Wenru and others passed by, she continued to welcome the next wave of guests.

Su Zhi thought that the arrangements of the Loyalty Marquis' Mansion were very thoughtful, and they arranged a maid to lead the way. Fortunately, they arranged it, otherwise there were many small paths here and she might have walked somewhere else. Because of the maid's guidance, she turned left and right, and finally after passing through a few clumps of green bamboo and a rockery, the view in front of her suddenly opened up, and she felt like she had finally found a bright future.

I saw a small path in front of me. This path was paved around a lake. Both sides of the path were planted with flowers of various colors, mostly chrysanthemums, which were blooming gorgeously at this time. Clusters of them were very pleasing to the eye.

Walking left along the lakeside road, you can see a delicate building not far away, half on the shore and half on the water. You can see many people sitting inside. It is dusk now. The warm and bright golden afterglow sprinkles on it, as if it is shrouded in a layer of golden gauze, just like in a fairyland.

"It is indeed more interesting to sit in this chrysanthemum viewing pavilion when the chrysanthemums are in full bloom in autumn."

Ye Wenru looked at the lake and the chrysanthemums and spoke to the people around him with a smile.

Shen Ziju smiled and nodded. He said, "It is especially wonderful to come here at dusk. The breeze is filled with the bitter fragrance of autumn chrysanthemums. It makes people feel refreshed."

Shen Zhu smiled and interrupted, "Brother, don't you like chrysanthemums the most? I remember you wrote a few poems about chrysanthemums. If you are in a good mood today, you must write a few more."

"If we talk about the best poem about chrysanthemum, it's naturally Brother Ye. I have heard Brother Ye's five poems about chrysanthemum, and they are really outstanding. In today's chrysanthemum writing competition, I look forward to Brother Ye's more excellent poems."

Shen Ziju praised Ye Wenru. Ye Wenru became prime minister at a young age. Shen Ziju admired him very much. His goal was to become prime minister when he was younger than Ye Wenru. It was very difficult to surpass Ye Wenru. But it was also possible to let Ye Wenru help him and let him become the other prime minister. Especially after knowing that Xing'er was Ye Wenru's son, he was more determined to do so.

Ye Wenru smiled softly and said, "I also hope that Brother Shen Wu can come up with more good sentences."

A few people chatted and laughed as they slowly walked towards the chrysanthemum-viewing pavilion.

The Chrysanthemum Viewing Water Pavilion is very large. Perhaps it was built for entertaining guests, so it is very long horizontally. There are many tables and chairs, all of the same rectangular tables. On it is a white porcelain vase with blooming autumn chrysanthemums in it. There are cups, plates, pots and bowls on it. Tea, snacks and fruits are spread out on the table. They are all exquisite white porcelain. When placed on the black and red table, it looks very beautiful at first glance and makes people feel very good.

Anyone with good eyesight could tell that the porcelains were all the most famous jade porcelains of the time. Even a cup like that cost one silver dollar, and there were so many jade porcelains here, which showed that the Mu family was wealthy and powerful. It also showed that they attached great importance to their guests, which made the visitors very happy.

As soon as the maid brought Ye Wenru and others in, many people stood up to greet them. They exchanged a few words with each of them, and by the time they were seated, a quarter of an hour had passed.

Perhaps because Ye Wenru had a high status, the place where the maid led him to sit was very good, which was a corner of a waterside pavilion, close to the lake, so he could just see the lake and the colorful chrysanthemums blooming nearby.

Shen Zian, Su Zhi, Ye Wenru and Madam Ye sat at the same table. They did not allow maids to serve them, and asked three maids and Liu Yin to look after the three children together, so that they would not fall into the water out of joy at the sight of the lake. Shen Ziju sat at a table very close to Shen Zhu so that they could talk.

At this time the weather was neither too cold nor too hot. The sun was about to set and the golden afterglow was getting less and less. From time to time, a few black bird shadows flew across the sky. Below was a lake with layers of lotus leaves on it. The lotus flowers had now withered, but the lotus bushes were in full bloom and were also very pleasing to the eye.

Especially next to the railing next to Shen Zian and the others, there were several clusters of lotus leaves with a few lotus flowers on them, which were still blooming vigorously. The color was a rare red, which was very gorgeous and attractive.

Su Zhi often looked at lotus flowers, but they were always white, even if they were fairy lotuses. After looking at them for a long time, she began to like lotus flowers of other colors, especially red lotus flowers. She became a little fascinated by them.

"Wife, if you like this red lotus, plant some at home when you get home."

Shen Zian whispered to Su Zhi that he knew his wife liked flowers, especially chrysanthemums and lotus. He saw them all at once today. Seeing how much his wife liked them, he thought that he must plant a field of red lotus in the pond at home. By then, it would be like what his wife wrote in her poem, with endless green lotus leaves reaching the sky and exceptionally red lotus flowers reflecting the sun.

Su Zhi nodded slightly after hearing this, thinking that it must be a beautiful scene.

When the breeze blows, you can smell the fragrance of lotus flowers.

Shen Ziju smelled the fragrance of the lotus and for some reason he remembered the lotus fragrance he had smelled on Su Zhi. This fragrance was completely incomparable to the lotus fragrance on her body. This woman was indeed different. She was so smart and everything she made was the best. Even the lotus perfume on her body smelled better than the lotus in the Loyalty Marquis' Mansion. He knew that those red lotuses were very precious lotuses, especially famous for their fragrance.

Su Zhi felt someone was looking at her. She turned her head and found that Shen Ziju and Shen Zhu were both looking at her. Shen Ziju quickly looked away, while Shen Zhu smiled. Although the smile was beautiful, it made people feel cold. She thought this brother and sister were really strange. Why were they looking at her instead of the scenery? She ignored Shen Zhu and went to look at the flowers again.

Shen Zhu saw that Su Zhi ignored her and pursed her lips in anger. She just looked at Su Zhi and found that she looked even more beautiful. Her snow-white skin almost dazzled her eyes. Even the white magnolia on her head couldn't compare to hers! Shen Zhu thought, why did Su Zhi look so beautiful? She was just a peasant woman! Sitting with her, her glory would be taken away! Shen Zhu thought that she must let the little brother sit with her somewhere else later!

Time passed slowly, the sun set, and night fell. Just as the sky began to darken, lights came on one by one.

The lights in the chrysanthemum viewing pavilion are all small lanterns, not very bright, but enough to make the atmosphere even more intoxicating.

Shen Ziju had already been taken away by Shen Zhu on the pretext of talking to someone.

Su Zhi looked at the lit lanterns and suddenly wanted to go out for a walk. When Shen Zian heard this, he naturally wanted to go with her.

Ye Wenru and Mrs. Ye had already sat at the table where Shen Ziju and Shen Zhu had just sat, because there were too many people visiting him, which disturbed Su Zhi's rest. She was pregnant, so he considerately changed the table. At this time, he was talking to several young men and girls, and even Mrs. Ye was surrounded by two girls, so she couldn't leave. So Shen Zian and Su Zhi made a gesture and left.

Yueyue wanted to go with them, but was stopped by Xiaori, and Xing'er also said she didn't want to go.

"Dad must be alone with mom at this time, so we shouldn't watch."

Xing'er said that he knew that sometimes when they fell asleep at night, Dad would accompany Mom for a walk outside, and that was definitely to prevent them from following them.

Yueyue suddenly realized and said, "I see, this is called a world for two, my mother said so."

Su Zhi had sharp ears, so of course she heard it. The corners of her mouth twitched as she looked at the people who were staring at them. She thought that these three little kids were just saying whatever they wanted. It really did make one happy or sad to have such sons and daughters!

Shen Zian actually showed a smile on his face, he was just thinking about living in a world of two.

As soon as the two of them went out, several people entered the pavilion. They walked to the left, while these people came from the right, so they did not see them.

Among these people, two are servants and two are masters.

The man walking in front was a middle-aged man with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes. Although he was over 40, he was still tall and straight, wearing a long robe and exuding heroic spirit. This man was the owner of the Mu Mansion, the Loyal Marquis Mu Yongnian, and the young man behind him who looked very similar to him was his eldest son and only son Mu Chengzhi.

As soon as the two men came in, everyone who saw them stood up and greeted them.

Because the Loyal Marquis liked to be called by his official title, everyone called him Lord Mu instead of Marquis. Mu Chengzhi was called General Mu because he was already a general at a young age, the kind of general who had fought in wars and seen bloodshed, so even though he was still young, his eyes could still inspire awe when they scanned everywhere.

I'm stuck because I want to set a small climax, so I'm stuck. I'll stop here today, and I definitely won't update alone tomorrow. I saw the rewards from the "Waiting Until When" kiss, there are really a lot, I feel guilty for updating alone, but I'm really stuck, I swear on the light, I won't lie, cover my face.
