Chapter 118 Princess Xiao Zhenshu
"Chuqing, look."
Mu Chuqing looked up at the attic and saw Mu Jingxing looking into the depths of the lotus, then he picked up his brush and concentrated on painting.
Mu Chuqing hurriedly looked towards the flower-rowing boat deep in the lotus.
No way!
The eldest brother is painting for the Jiang sisters!
"Xiao Fei, quickly row the other boat over here!"
"yes."
"Cousin." Jiang Shiyun saw a colorful rowing boat sliding towards her from the front and quickly sat up straight.
"Brother Mu's sister, Princess Qingyang, is here. The sister next to her is Han Ruxue, the eldest daughter of the Xinyang Marquis's family."
Song Yu suddenly felt pressured and hurriedly took the handkerchief handed to him by Bai Lan, wiped the corners of his mouth, and adjusted his clothes and headdress.
After the song ended, the voice of Princess Qingyang came over, "Cheng Qingmeng, I haven't seen you for a long time. Your piano skills are getting better and better."
Cheng Qingmeng hurriedly stood up and saluted, "Thank you for the compliment, Princess."
"Your humble servant Jiang Shiyun greets Princess Qingyang."
"I, Song Yu, greet Princess Qingyang."
"Well, there's no need for formalities on the boat." Princess Qingyang lifted her skirt and walked over to help Jiang Shiyun and others up.
Han Ruxue followed closely behind and boarded the boat, her eyes unconsciously falling on Song Yu.
"Are you Miss Song who just diagnosed my grandmother's illness?"
Song Yu nodded, "It is indeed my daughter."
"Miss Song's medical skills are so amazing that even the palace judge Xue, the divine doctor Lu, and other famous doctors in the capital have been unable to diagnose her. I think your medical skills are superior to theirs."
Princess Mu Chuqing of Qingyang looked at Song Yu, her curiosity growing.
Even if Song Yu cured her grandmother, his elder brother would not let her come here to appreciate the lotus, and the pastries on the table encompassed the specialties of both the north and the south.
"I don't deserve it. I only know a little bit about medicine. I happened to see a related case in an ancient medical book, so I was able to diagnose the old lady's illness. It was really luck."
Mu Chuqing raised her eyebrows. "Not everyone can heal illnesses and save lives by sheer luck. Since you saved my grandmother, you are the benefactor of our Mu family. My name is Mu Chuqing. I'm almost coming of age, so I'm probably older than you. You can call me sister. This is my good friend Han Ruxue. You can call her sister, too."
"Hello, sisters."
Han Ruxue smiled and nodded: "Chuqing, let's sit down and drink tea and appreciate the lotus with the sisters."
Cheng Qingmeng said, "Then I'll play another song."
Xiao Chengqian was very surprised to see this. If his cousin had a bad reputation, then his cousin Princess Qingyang was no less so.
I was able to sit down and drink tea and appreciate lotus with the Jiang sisters.
This Song Yu is really amazing.
In the distance, a beautiful woman with a gentle appearance saw this scene, and the corners of her pretty lips rose slightly.
"Xia He, I'm back at the right time. Ah Jing really opened my eyes. Let's go see if mother-in-law is awake now."
This person is none other than the eldest princess Xiao Zhenshu, the biological mother of the Mu brothers and sisters.
"Mrs. Mother-in-law, you are awake."
"Oh, my eldest princess, you are finally back."
Xiao Zhenshu looked at Madam Mu's face and said with a smile: "The Song family's medical skills are really amazing. My mother-in-law's face has become white and tender again."
"Xiu'er, quickly bring me the mirror." Old Madam Mu had just woken up and had not yet looked at her face.
Madam Mu took the small bronze mirror and looked at her face carefully. "This girl is really good. I wonder if she should go to Chaofeng Palace to study. She can win the seventh-rank noble lady with her medical skills alone."
Xiao Zhenshu: "There is still more than a month until the Chaofeng Palace Academy's autumn entrance examination. I guess Jiang Yunwan will definitely let Miss Song take the exam. After all, she wants to choose a good husband for her precious daughter."
"Our Mu family is a good husband's family."
Xiao Zhenshu was stunned.
Nanny Xiu's head was buzzing again, the old lady's illness had not yet recovered.
"Madam, the Song family girl is only thirteen years old."
"Mother-in-law, I just went to the lotus pond to check it out. Ah Jing is rarely in the mood to paint, and he's very gentle towards the Jiang sisters. Once he leaves the Mu Mansion, your precious grandson will have a cold face again. It's better to match him up with his savior. Didn't Xiao Fei say that Ah Jing grabbed someone's hand? There's an 80% chance of success."
Madam Mu lay down and said listlessly, "A Jing said that the savior is in the capital, and it is not convenient for him to come to the mansion. How can we make the matter a done deal if we don't come to the Mu Mansion?"
Xiao Zhenshu frowned slightly, "Mother-in-law, you can't do this. What if you scare the girl away? We are the Duke of Anguo's Mansion, we can't use force to oppress others."
Her son already had a bad reputation, and she was really worried that if things got tainted, he would force the girl to death.
"...That girl didn't want to come to the mansion. She must have heard of our Ajing's bad reputation."
Madam Mu realized the seriousness of the matter after hearing this. "Hey, we should have stopped Ah Jing at the beginning. Those daughters who admired him were right. I really hope that another brave and powerful girl will appear. Then we must keep her. Even if Ah Jing touched the edge of her clothes, he will be held responsible."
Xiao Zhenshu shook his head. "I'm afraid that before the mother-in-law and I arrive, the girl might have been beaten to death by Ajing. There's no time to rush. The most important thing for us now is to keep an eye on him. We can't let Ajing become a monk. As long as he doesn't become a monk, he'll get married one day."
"How long will it take? Oh, and what did the abbot of the Huguo Temple say when you went there?"
Xiao Zhenshu dismissed the servants and whispered to Madam Mu, "On the way back from Huguo Temple this time, I met Taoist Wuji. He said that Ajing is destined to die."
"What?" Madam Mu was so frightened that her pale face turned even paler.
"Don't worry, mother-in-law. Taoist Wuji said that Ajing's fate has passed and he has met his destined person."
Madam Mu was delighted, "Really?"
"Master Wuji was famous back then, so he shouldn't talk nonsense. Let's just wait patiently."
Princess Qingyang and Han Ruxue really treated Song Yu as their sister. They sat together and exchanged some polite words. They then whispered to each other and laughed from time to time.
Song Yu felt extremely embarrassed and felt more comfortable with his two cousins.
After all, given her status, how could a wealthy lady truly regard her as a friend?
Fortunately, the time was not long and Mu Jingxing arranged for him to have lunch.
Song Yu saw that all the dishes in front of her were her favorites, as well as a few of her favorite Jiangnan specialties. She turned her head and glanced at Mu Jingxing who was sitting in the first seat.
How did this guy know her preferences?
Is it just because we spent a few days together in Yunyin, halfway up the mountain?
Mu Jingxing nodded: "Miss Song, is the food to your liking?"
"Thank you, Master Mu, for your hospitality. Very good, very good."
Mu Jingxing pursed his lips slightly, "In that case, please enjoy it slowly, Miss Song."
Then, Mu Jingxing handed a brocade box to Xiao Fei.
Xiao Fei took the brocade box and walked to the dining table in front of Song Yu. "Miss Song, this is the dish my prince added for you. Do you like it?"
Add more dishes?
Xiao Chengqian and others looked over.
It’s really a hard dish!
Bai Lan became excited when she saw the same brocade box that Ah Si brought back yesterday.
This is the consultation fee.
Prince Mu really has a lot of money.
Song Yu took it and opened it, only to see a thick stack of silver bills in the box.
This dish is quite substantial!
"Miss Song, are you satisfied with the consultation fee this time?"
