Madam Bai looked the little dumpling up and down.
She originally thought she was delivering a letter to the Princess Consort of the South.
We could use the Princess Consort of the South to punish the little dumpling, but unexpectedly, she returned unharmed.
Hmph! She really underestimated this little guy.
Madam Bai muttered to herself.
But openly, she didn't dare to do anything, after all, she was in the Mu family now.
Madam Bai had no choice but to look away, but when she saw Mu Ran, she froze, and even the teacup in her hand fell to the ground.
The sound of the porcelain shards breaking immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Madam Bai lowered her head in fear, trying to hide the panic in her eyes.
"Mother, what's wrong?"
Bai Mengyun asked.
She has stopped taking fertility medication and has been resting more lately, so her complexion is much better than before.
"I...I'm fine...I just lost my grip," Madam Bai replied, trying to suppress her panic.
Mu Ran immediately stepped forward and picked up the broken pieces of porcelain from the ground.
She was a gift from the Empress to Xiao Tuanzi, and at this time, she was considered a servant of the Mu family.
Mu Ran collected the broken porcelain shards in her palm and, as she stood up, inadvertently exchanged a glance with Madam Bai.
The two exchanged complicated glances.
The little dumpling was watching Mu Ran and Madam Bai's every move when a small hand patted her bottom.
She looked down and saw Mu Yanxiu staring at her angrily.
The little dumpling climbed off Mu Tingzheng and looked at Mu Yanxiu with confusion, not understanding why she was angry.
"Little niece, what's wrong?" the little dumpling asked.
Mu Yanxiu remained angry, staring at her without saying a word.
The little dumpling didn't know what to say, so he just touched the pom-pom flower on her head.
"Your flowers are so pretty."
Mu Yanxiu pushed her hand away and asked angrily:
Where have you been these past few days?
The little dumpling answered honestly, "I stayed at my aunt's palace for a few days, and today I went horseback riding with my brother."
Mu Yanxiu: "Hmph! You seem to be having a very carefree and happy time."
The little dumpling was full of questions, feeling that Mu Yanxiu's words were strange.
Mu Yanxiu continued, "So what are you planning to do next?"
The little dumpling chewed on its hand, thought for a moment, and said, "Eat."
After hearing this, Mu Yanxiu patted her head.
What are you going to do after you finish eating?
The little dumpling innocently said, "I don't know."
Mu Yanxiu suddenly reached out and hugged her, saying in a very domineering manner:
"No matter what you're doing later, you have to call me, okay?"
The little dumpling nodded obediently and said:
"knew!"
Mu Yanxiu then released her with satisfaction and took out several leather bags from his pocket.
"Here, this is a snowflake pastry. My grandmother gave it to me. She said it's a new dessert invented in a neighboring country and brought it especially for me." Mu Yanxiu stuffed the snowflake pastry into the little dumpling's hand.
"I ate some, it was delicious, these are all for you."
Snowflake crisps? A dessert from a neighboring country?
The little dumpling quickly packed up the snowflake crisps; she had never tasted sweets from a neighboring country before!
"Thank you, little niece."
The little dumpling took Mu Yanxiu's hand and sat down with her at the dining table.
After finishing her meal, Madam Bai took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention and pulled Mu Ran to the corridor.
"Why did you come to the Mu family?" Madam Bai asked bluntly.
Mu Ran took a few steps back and replied, "It was the little princess who asked Her Majesty the Empress to bestow me upon her."
Madam Bai sneered, "You're still alive, you're lucky. Don't forget, your family is in my hands!"
"If you dare to say anything nonsense, I'll send them all to meet the King of Hell!"
