Chapter 351 Visiting the Mu Family 2
The little girl next to her nodded sadly.
Pei Ji got off the horse first. The people from the Mu family greeted them with a smile. Then a slender white hand stretched out from the carriage, and Pei Ji carefully supported it.
The distance between the carriage and the ground was too high, so Pei Ji simply put his arm around her slender waist and carried her down with great care.
The person in front of him turned pale.
Pei Ji said, "Aunt, this is Song Dynasty porcelain. Grandmother said she wanted to meet her for a long time, so she brought her here today."
It seemed as if he didn't see the expression of the person in front of him.
The Mu family's aunt regained her smile and said, "Miss Song, I've heard about this a long time ago. I think my mother will be very happy that you came today."
Song Ci: "Excuse me."
Aunt: "If you don't mind, why don't you follow Pei Ji and call me aunt? Sooner or later, we will be family."
Song Ci said generously: "Aunt."
My aunt laughed heartily, as if she was genuinely happy.
The little girl following beside her was wearing a pink jacket and skirt, her hair was combed neatly and pinned with a sapphire hairpin.
Although she is not extremely beautiful, she is still a pretty girl.
Ever since Song Ci came in here, she has been staring at Song Ci without blinking.
Song Ci met her gaze and looked at him, but the little girl looked away as if nothing had happened.
The Mu family was wealthy after all. The path was paved with marble and cobblestones, and it was a bit slippery because it rained last night. Everyone walked very slowly, and Song Ci was even more cautious.
The path is lined with short trees, which appear clean and clear after being washed by rain. Such a touch of lush green in winter is particularly vibrant.
pleasing to the eye.
After passing two large courtyards, they finally arrived at the courtyard of the old lady of the Mu family.
The Mu family's aunt pointed to the courtyard next to them and said, "This is our courtyard. Pei Ji, please bring Song Ci to sit here more often."
Pei Ji: "Yes."
The house looks a bit old, but it has been well-repaired, showing the weight of time.
There were already quite a few people sitting in the yard of the old lady of the Mu family.
Seeing the two people coming, they all shut up and looked at them curiously.
More eyes were on Pei Ji, as if exploring, curious, and even secretly spying on him.
"Pei Ji, you're here."
The old lady at the top was wearing a dark brown bodice, her hair was gray and combed meticulously, and she had a kind smile.
Pei Ji: "Grandma, your grandson is here to see you."
Old Lady Mu seemed to be looking through him at another person, her eyes slightly moist.
Old Madam Mu: "It's good that you're here, it's good that you're here, please sit down." She turned to look at Song Ci: "This child is so pretty, you must be Song Ci."
Song Ci walked up to her and said, "Yes, I've met you, old lady."
Old Lady Mu took off the bracelet on her hand and put it on Song Ci's wrist. She did it so quickly that no one could react.
Song Ci hesitated: "Old lady, I dare not accept this bracelet."
The bracelet is in excellent condition and is obviously a good item, and the owner cherishes it very much.
Old Madam Mu smiled and said, "It's just a bracelet. Why wouldn't you be afraid to accept it?"
Aunt: "The old lady really loves you. This bracelet was never given to anyone before. My daughter Rao'er begged for it several times, but the old lady was reluctant to give it to you."
Old Mrs. Mu's face darkened.
Song Ci tried to smooth things over: "I think the hairpin on Sister Rao's head is very beautiful. She is young, so she should wear something bright."
Mu Rao: "I like bracelets very much."
Song Ci wanted to smooth things over, but unfortunately some people refused to give him a way out and kept his mouth shut.
Old Madam Mu said angrily, "You are the first one to take care of all the jewelry and clothes in the house, yet you still want to fight for a bracelet. You are making a fool of yourself."
Mu Rao was scolded, her face turned pale and she shut up.
Aunt Mu: "Mother, Rao'er has no other thoughts, she just has a childish temper. Song Ci, I have spoiled Rao'er, please don't bother with her."
Song Ci: "Of course I won't care."
Mu Rao looked at her coldly and then turned away.
Pei Ji said in a slightly cold tone, "She will be fifteen next year. Do you still think she is a child and doesn't know anything? If she doesn't know anything, your aunt will teach her."
Aunt Mu said bashfully, "Mu Rao doesn't have a bad heart, she just has a bad temper."
Pei Ji: "When you're young, your temper is cute, but when you grow up, it becomes annoying."
The room was so quiet for a moment that you could almost hear breathing.
Some people had long been fed up with Mu Rao. They were trying to hold back their laughter and their shoulders were shaking violently. One of them, the girl in an apricot dress, was particularly noticeable. Song Ci looked at her several times. The girl was a little plump, with a pair of round eyes that looked at people very clearly.
There is no calculation in his eyes, only cunning, which easily makes people feel good about him.
After the bracelet incident, everyone started talking about it.
Song Ci answered one by one, and her words were impeccable, and everyone was very satisfied.
Aunt Mu was not very happy and asked several tricky questions.
Aunt Mu said: "I heard that your Song family has split up. They all said that as long as my parents are still alive, we won't split up. What's going on in your family?"
Song Ci: "My grandmother agreed to divide the family."
Aunt Mu: "Your grandmother is really kind-hearted. Mother, don't you agree?"
Old Lady Mu: "You keep asking questions here and there, and you won't let me take a break. You should also stop talking."
Aunt Mu: ""
Mu Er's aunt said, "Mother, why don't you let Mu Qing take Miss Song out for a walk? This is her first time in the courtyard, so she must have never been around before. She doesn't feel comfortable sitting here with us elders."
Old Lady Mu: "Okay, Mu Qing, take your sister Song out for a walk and take good care of her, okay?"
The girl in the apricot skirt who was smiling just now stood up and saluted straight.
"Grandma, your granddaughter will take good care of Sister Song."
After leaving the house, Mu Qing kept looking at Song Ci curiously, but Song Ci pretended not to see and let him look at him.
Mu Qing: "I finally understand why my aunt and Mu Rao made such a fool of themselves today."
Song Ci: "Why do you say that?"
Mu Qing: "Because Sister Song, you are too beautiful, Mu Rao and my aunt's thoughts will not come true."
Song Ci guessed most of what the two were thinking, but she didn't expect Mu Qing to say it directly.
Song Ci: "You are quite outspoken."
Mu Qing shook her head. "I'm just angry that they've brought shame to the Mu family. Cousin Pei hasn't been here for a long time. Grandma and Qiqi, the two of them, have provoked Cousin Pei. If Cousin doesn't come, Grandma will be sad."
Seeing that she had finished speaking fluently, Song Ci smiled and said, "No, your cousin Pei will come again and I promise not to make your grandmother sad."
Mu Qing smiled: "Sister Song, you are beautiful and kind-hearted."
The two chatted about other things. Mu Qing was lively and told many interesting stories about the Mu family. They soon walked to the edge of the pond. The fish in the pond were not active in the winter and stayed lazily in the lake.
Mu Qing was bored, "I'm afraid these fish are as bored as I am."
Song Ci: "Why are you bored? The Mu family is prosperous, you should have no shortage of playmates."
Mu Qing: "I don't like playing with them. They are too serious." She pouted and threw a small stone into the lake.
