Chapter 536 We Are Not Outsiders
Jiang Yunwan smiled and nodded. "Ming En and I want to keep Sister Yu until she's eighteen, so we're not in a hurry to get her married. We can settle the marriage first. The prerequisite is that the man must be outstanding in all aspects. Most importantly, Sister Yu likes him and he must be consistently good to her. Of the young masters you mentioned just now, I think Prince Mu has the most outstanding abilities and looks."
Su Beiqing said, "That's true, but it's rumored that he doesn't like women. Many girls who admired him were sent to Shuiyun Temple. I don't know who he will marry in the future."
Jiang Yunwan didn't say anything, but sipped the hot tea. Of course, Prince Mu was a good son-in-law for her and Ming En.
Putting aside Prince Mu's family background, just based on his looks, many girls would rush to him and try to find ways to take him home.
I'm afraid that one day a beautiful, resourceful and courageous woman will suddenly appear and be abducted home by Prince Mu.
It seems that we need to settle the marriage as soon as possible.
But they couldn't be the ones to bring this up, it had to be the Mu family who brought it up first.
"Other gentlemen, please tell me in detail." Meng'er hasn't proposed marriage yet, so I have to let her see it today.
The Mu family and the Jiang family arrived at Prince Rong's mansion almost at the same time.
"Sister Princess." Jiang Shiyun rushed over as soon as she got off the carriage. "You look so beautiful today."
Cheng Qingmeng walked over and whispered in her ear, "Princess, you are dressed so beautifully today. Are you here for a blind date?"
"Don't talk nonsense! I'm here to attend my uncle's birthday party, so of course I have to dress up nicely." As Mu Chuqing spoke, she glanced at Jiang Guanchen who was pulling Wen Shu out of the carriage.
Jiang Guanchen happened to turn his head to look at her, and Mu Chuqing quickly looked away, "... Let's go in and find Sister Yu."
"Guan Chen." Mu Jingxing's handsome face blocked his view. "What are you looking at?"
Jiang Guanchen said calmly, "I was looking for you. You look so warm today, it's really rare."
Mu Jingxing smiled and said, "Today is my uncle's birthday party. How can I keep a cold face like I'm interrogating a criminal? Otherwise, my uncle will dislike me."
"Oh?" Jiang Guanchen raised his eyebrows. "Are you afraid that people don't like you? You never care."
Mu Jingxing: "My uncle is my mother's cousin, he is my family, so naturally I can't let my family dislike him."
"Ha... whatever you say is what it is."
Wen Shu: "Brother Prince, cousin, there are only three of us left at the door, let's go in."
Mu Jingxing then looked at Wen Shu, "I haven't seen you for a long time. Not only do you look rosier, but you've also gained weight on your face. You look more like your mother."
Wen Shu smiled and nodded, "My body has almost recovered and I'm slowly starting to gain weight."
Mu Jingxing put his arm around his shoulders and said, "Let's go in and let the little princess and sister Yu take a closer look. They will definitely be very happy to know that you have gained weight."
"Hey, Prince, you left me behind." Jiang Guanchen hurriedly chased in.
When the Gu family arrived, half of the guests had already arrived.
Gu Jinyan and Gu Jinxuan were curious about Song Mingen's appearance, so they got off the carriage with their cousins and walked into the gate of Prince Rong's Mansion.
Gu Wanqing and his sons did not dare to go in for a while, especially Gu Lao San who was hiding behind his father and brother.
He never expected that Song Mingen not only survived but also turned out to be his aunt's biological son.
He had taken off his mask in Zhongyi Building before!
I’m afraid that I’ll attack him when we meet later.
Gu Zhouci: "Dad, when you go in and see the little prince, don't be so foolish as to say that he is your son."
"I understand." Gu Wanqing straightened his clothes and said, "Let's go in."
"Uncle, if you hadn't rushed back to the capital, I would have gone to thank you when I woke up. If I had seen your true face then, you and my great aunt wouldn't have been so late in recognizing each other."
Gu Jinyan felt that something was wrong.
If my great aunt had met my uncle at that time, she would not have been kidnapped and almost died, and my uncle would not have faked his death to inquire about her life experience.
Song Mingen said, "The time has not come yet. Even if we meet face to face, we won't recognize each other. Your great-aunt is thinking about you. Go to Jinquetai and look for her."
As soon as the brother and sister left, Song Mingen saw Gu Wanqing and others coming in and hurried to greet them.
"Meet Xiao Wang..."
"Uncle, no need to be so polite." Song Mingen hurriedly helped him up. "Father is waiting inside. Let's go in and sit down to talk."
Gu Wanqing looked at Song Mingen's smiling face, and the word "uncle" lingered in his mind, making him inexplicably happy.
It’s not bad if he’s not a son, at least he’s a nephew.
"It's just right. Your uncle wants to talk to your father. How is your mother?"
"She's recovering well. You'll be able to see her when the banquet starts later."
Song Mingen suddenly turned around and looked at Gu Laosan, who was at the last place.
Gu Laosan's face turned pale immediately, and then he quickly greeted Song Mingen again.
"Greetings... Greetings, young prince."
Song Mingen curled his lips and smiled. Why are you so timid and yet know the rules today?
Where is the arrogance he showed in Zhongyi Building?
"We are all family, no need to be so polite." After saying this, Song Mingen led Gu Wanqing to the front hall.
"Big brother, second brother, is the young prince going to settle the score later?"
Gu Zhouci: "No, the young prince is my aunt's biological son, so he is naturally generous..."
After Song Yu gave Du Ye acupuncture, he was dragged to the back garden by Mu Chuqing and others who came looking for him.
Mu Jingxing, Jiang Guanchen, Wen Nuowenshu were all in the back garden.
"Sisters." Wen Nuo, without any burden, saw the sisters coming and trotted over to praise them. "You all look so beautiful today, you are all fairy sisters."
Song Yu smiled and stole a glance at Mu Jingxing in the distance. He looked more handsome after not seeing him for many days.
"Xiao Nuo, how much candy did you eat this morning?"
"Hehe... not much. Don't you often praise me for being kind-hearted, plump, and sweet-mouthed?"
"Haha..." Jiang Shiyun covered her mouth and laughed, "Cousin, is that how you praise him?"
Song Yu smiled and nodded. "Xiao Nuo is just sweet-talking. Otherwise, he wouldn't have the chance to make cakes for me. Oh, by the way, I made several kinds of cakes yesterday. Later, we sisters will go to the Jade Pavilion to continue brewing tea around the stove."
"Cousin, I want to go too. I'm your eldest cousin, not a stranger."
"Sister Yu, there are still us." Mu Jingxing led Wen Shu over, "Your father is my uncle, so I am your cousin, not a stranger. The young marquis is also your cousin, so he is even less of a stranger."
Mu Chuqing pursed her lips and smiled secretly. It seemed that her elder brother was eager to talk more with Sister Yu.
"...Look at the young marquis, he's gained weight."
Song Yu then looked at Wen Shu and said, "Cousin, give me your wrist quickly."
Wen Shu hurriedly stretched out his wrist.
Song Yu pinched it carefully and said, "Not bad! You've taken good care of yourself. I'll give you a dietary recipe later. In three months, you'll not only gain weight but also grow taller."
Wen Shu was delighted, "How tall can it grow?"
Now he is shorter than his sister, but is taken care of and protected by her, just like he is her younger brother.
He wanted to grow taller and stronger as soon as possible to protect his sister and mother.
"Take care of yourself according to the prescription, eat more, go to bed early and get up early. As for how tall you can grow, it depends on your individual constitution. In three months, I guarantee you will be taller than Xiao Nuo, and he will definitely not be able to carry you."
"Little brother, come and hug me. I won't be able to hold you in three months. I need you to hug me more now."
Wen Nuo opened his chubby little hands and was about to hug Wen Shu.
"Don't." Wen Shu hurriedly stepped back. He didn't want to be picked up by Xiao Nuo in front of so many people.
"Come on."
"No! I won't hold him." Wen Shu turned and ran away. "Cousin, please take care of him."
"Xiao Nuo."
Song Yu called out, and Wen Nuo had to give up.
If you don't listen to your sister, you won't be able to enjoy the meal.
Mu Chuqing: "Sister Yu, it's still a while before we leave the banquet, and it's cold, let's go to the Jade Garden and warm ourselves by the fire."
"good."
When they arrived at the warm pavilion in the Jade Garden, Mu Chuqing first pulled Mu Jingxing to sit down, and then pulled Song Yu to sit next to Mu Jingxing.
The distance between seats is only half the distance of a throne.
Jiang Guanchen saw that there was an empty seat next to Mu Chuqing and was wondering whether to sit over there. Cheng Qingmeng pulled him aside and sat over, "Cousin, come and sit over here."
Jiang Shiyun walked over and distanced herself from Jiang Guanchen again.
Jiang Guanchen: ...
Jiang Guanchen had no choice but to sit next to Jiang Shiyun, and pulled Wen Shu over to sit next to him.
Wen Nuo took the cakes, green plums, oranges and other food brought by the servants and placed them on the iron net in order before sitting down between Mu Jingxing and Wen Shu.
As soon as he sat down, he saw that Song Yu looked a little shy. He looked at Mu Chuqing and then turned his head to look at Mu Jingxing.
Why is Prince Mu sitting next to his sister? He should be sitting next to his sister.
"Sister." Wen Nuofu opened his mouth and the voice of Princess Anyang came over, "And us."
Princess Anyang pulled Gu Jinyan into the warm pavilion.
With the addition of these two people, the distance between the seats, which was originally half a chair, was shortened to an arm's length.
"Cousin, just as we were leaving the Golden Sparrow Tower, we heard your grandmother say that she would arrange your marriage today."
Mu Chuqing hurriedly asked, "Did my grandmother say which girl she favored?"
Hearing this, Mu Jingxing unconsciously clenched his fists.
Princess Anyang shook her head. "That's all I heard. They also said they wanted to arrange your marriage. Then Old Madam Jiang and Madam Jiang came. We couldn't eavesdrop, so we hurried over."
Princess Anyang looked at Mu Jingxing and said, "Cousin, you can't hide away. Your grandmother will definitely do everything she can to get you married. Instead of letting her force you, why not take a good look at the girls attending the banquet today and pick the one you like the most?"
