Chapter 395 Why did General Xie ignore me?
Upon hearing this, Chen Guangzhi glanced at Mu Chengyan obscurely.
Is it really possible that a ruthless man like Mu Chengyan could fall in love with his daughter?
Will his daughter really be happy if she marries Mu Chengyan?
No matter what, the little emperor is the daughter of his biological sister. The wet nurse said that her sister was born out of wedlock. Does he really want to do anything to hurt his family for Mu Chengyan?
Chen Guangzhi was a little confused.
He lowered his head and walked into the house, and heard Chen Meihua call out cheerfully, "Dad!"
When Chen Guangzhi looked up, he saw Chen Meihua's blooming smile, "Dad, thank you for your hard work. Have some tea."
"This is the dew I collected this morning. Pair it with your favorite black tea. Try it. Do you like it?"
Chen Guangzhi drank the black tea and looked at Chen Meihua's earnest smile, but he only felt bitterness in his mouth.
"Dad, the people below said that you went to see the emperor today. Did you tell him about your future plans? Did he agree to cooperate with you? When will Mu Chengyan and I get married? Dad, today I went to look at the fabrics for the wedding and also found the most famous embroiderer in the capital..."
Chen Meihua talked incessantly.
"Daddy, I want to get married sooner." Chen Meihua said anxiously.
Chen Guangzhi felt distressed and helpless. He looked at the smile on Chen Meihua's face and asked, "Girl, are you so anxious?"
"You've lived in this house for eighteen years. You're so familiar with everything here. Are you really willing to go to someone else's house?"
"Girl, Daddy actually has only one wish, that you stay healthy throughout your life. It doesn't really matter to Daddy whether you get married or not. Daddy can support you."
Chen Meihua smiled shyly, "My daughter is grown up and will eventually get married. Daddy, please don't be reluctant to let me go."
As Chen Meihua was speaking, the servant below said that the embroiderer had come to measure her size.
Chen Meihua went there happily.
After finishing all this, Chen Meihua and her maid were walking on the street. The maid was eating sesame cakes. The sesame cakes were fragrant and sweet. The maid said, "Miss, are you really not going to eat a single bite?"
"This is your favorite sesame cake."
Chen Meihua shook her head. "No, I won't eat it anymore. I know I'm not good-looking, and if I get fat I'll be even uglier. So I want to lose weight. From now on, I won't eat anything sweet or meaty."
The maidservant was young, only twelve years old, and she felt that marriage was too painful, and she would have to give up even the things she loved.
If marriage has to be like this, then she would never want to get married in her life.
Chen Meihua remained silent, gazing at the distant palace wall. She spoke softly and slowly, "You don't understand. The person Mu Chengyan truly loves lives there. She's respectable, noble, and incredibly beautiful. She made Mu Chengyan give up the place he longed for and come just for her. If I'm so inferior to that person, how can I keep my husband's heart?"
The maid frowned upon hearing this, "Miss, what are you talking about? If you truly love someone, you don't want them to give up on you. If you have to give up on yourself to get a relationship, how can it last?"
Chen Meihua watched from afar as Xie Jingmo rode past through the alley opposite.
She said softly, "It will last a long time. I can't get Xie Jingmo anymore, so I can't not get Mu Chengyan either."
Xie Jingmo didn't know all this. He only knew that there was a thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum at home, and he went out today specifically to find it to nourish Yun Zhao.
The horse stopped at the palace gate. Xie Jingmo got off and heard someone calling him from behind.
Xie Jingmo turned his head and saw a woman standing not far behind him.
The woman was not beautiful, but she had the brightness of a lady from a noble family. When she smiled, her eyes were very bright.
It is the nobleness that can only be brought up by being favored by the father at home.
"Thank you, General." The woman stepped forward and saluted politely.
Xie Jingmo looked at the girl in front of him and said, "You are the youngest daughter of the Chen family, Chen Meihua."
Because of Empress Chen's instructions before her death, Xie Jingmo paid more attention to the Chen family, so he remembered this girl.
Chen Meihua laughed, "The general has a good memory."
If she remembered correctly, Xie Jingmo only looked at her directly in front of his sister's grave after her death.
"Are you okay?"
Chen Meihua nodded and said softly, "General, I'm getting married."
Xie Jingmo was baffled, but as always, he was very graceful. He nodded and said, "Congratulations."
Chen Meihua smiled, her smile more sincere. "General, you may not know this, but when you didn't know, I loved you for many years. But then I suddenly realized that it was just a difficult fantasy. Now that I'm getting married, I want to say goodbye to the joy of my youth. I once loved you very sincerely. To receive your congratulations today is a perfect ending."
Xie Jingmo had no impression of this.
He has received too much attention since he was a child.
Because of his handsomeness, more women love him.
He really had no impression of someone with ordinary looks like Chen Meihua.
Chen Meihua smiled politely, bowed, and turned to leave.
Deputy General Gao came out and said, "What a sin! You're seducing another girl again?"
Xie Jingmo held the Ganoderma lucidum in his hand and said, "Stop talking nonsense, let's go." He turned around and forgot about the brief incident that had just happened.
After Chen Meihua walked a long way away, she slowly turned back.
Against the tall red wall, the handsome figure gradually became blurred and finally disappeared.
Xie Jingmo returned to the Cining Palace.
Fu Hai took the Ganoderma Lucidum and smiled, "General, you are more familiar with this Cining Palace than your own palace."
Deputy General Gao also wanted to make fun of it.
When they saw the three flowers coming from afar, they immediately slipped away.
Fu Hai was puzzled and looked towards the corridor, but before his eyes could settle.
Taohua had already rushed over and looked at Xie Jingmo with a smile, "General."
Xie Jingmo was a completely straight man. He nodded and was about to walk in.
Taohua had been waiting all day for the chance to talk to Xie Jingmo.
She straightened her clothes, followed Xie Jingmo's pace, and said with a smile: "General, this morning I soiled your clothes, so I made a new set to compensate you."
Xie Jingmo didn't even raise his head, he was only thinking about making something delicious for Yun Zhao today.
I eat too little and my body can’t take it.
How thin you have become.
Thinking of this, Xie Jingmo quickened his pace.
Taohua stared blankly at Xie Jingmo as he entered Yun Zhao's study. She stood at the door, stamping her feet in anger, tears streaming down her face.
"Sister Qicai, why did General Xie ignore me? Did he think I'm not good-looking?"
Qicai was stewing bird's nest for Yun Zhao and took the time to glance at Taohua.
To be honest, Taohua was selected by King Liang, and her eyes and eyebrows are somewhat similar to Yun Zhao.
If she bears three-tenths of a resemblance to Yun Zhao, she can already be called beautiful. Moreover, this peach blossom looks at least four-tenths similar to Yun Zhao.
