The movement behind the screen startled the two people outside.
Before anyone could see anyone, I heard Jiang Qi's voice, "What happened?"
Ruan Yuyi was placed on a round nanmu stool. She was afraid that Jiang Huaiyang would come to investigate the situation, so she gently pushed Mu Xiang.
Mu Xiang understood and stepped forward, blocking his view, "Master, please stay here. The young lady and the girl serving the soup accidentally fell down. The girl's clothes are not very neat at the moment. If the young master goes in, I'm afraid...
inconvenient."
When Jiang Qi heard this, he took a step back and asked with concern, "Is your lady okay?"
"It's nothing serious," Ruan Yuyi answered. She was in a hurry to round things off so as not to call Jiang Huaiyang in, but she accidentally replied in her original voice.
Jiang Huaiyang was sitting at the table, frowning slightly because he thought she disturbed his peace. Suddenly, when he heard her voice, his frown deepened. He felt that it sounded familiar, but he couldn't remember where he heard it.
He didn't think much about it, he just thought of it as a woman who always stayed by Jiang Qi's side. He secretly scoffed at the maid's thoughts for being too obvious and not knowing how to hide them, which was why she acted like this.
If it were the young lady from Shenghe Temple, she would definitely not be able to do such a stupid thing as staring at a man and throwing herself down. She is quiet and enthusiastic, and I have to say that she really knows how to seduce people.
.
Thinking like this, he became a little bored, and he couldn't bear to see the faces of these people who were trying to gain power and wealth, so he said to Jiang Qi, "It's not convenient to eat right now, so why not go back to the temple and eat with the concubine."
Jiang Qi didn't pay much attention and thought he was leaving first, so he turned around and blinked twice, "Then... see you later, brother?"
He sighed, "I want you to go with me." He, the emperor's nephew, is considered smart, but his mind is not on the right path and it is difficult to control it. Now that I see him saying this, I don't know if he really doesn't understand, or because
I just pretend not to understand so I can continue to stay here.
It is strange to say that Prince Yu was not afraid of anyone because of his petty behavior, but he was afraid of him, the little uncle who was not many years older than him. So he had no choice but to agree and bid farewell to Ruan Yuyi behind the screen with a loud voice.
After leaving the banquet, he told the waiter how much he would spend today and recorded it in his account first.
The guy recognized him, so there was no reason to disagree.
The girl who fell was then taken away by someone who looked like an old nanny. She apologized to Ruan Yuyi and served her plum soup diligently.
She was not a carefree person, so she responded with a gentle attitude. Then she sat here to eat. In fact, she had to dance a song just now, so she didn't dare to use too much. Now she was a little hungry.
.
While he was looking around at the delicacies above, he suddenly remembered that the wood spirit was still by the stream, so he sent Mu Xiang to look for it. Unexpectedly, as soon as Mu Xiang opened the door, he saw that the wood spirit was attracted by the people around Jiang Qi.
The woman and Mu Xiang saw the gift and left gracefully.
Mu Ling saw Ruan Yuyi and pretended to be sad, "Miss, why are you here?" She put the paper kite aside.
The paper kite was hanging on the branch, and it took a lot of effort for her to pick it up.
When she picked it up and tried to look for it, she saw a woman in a lilac dress walking straight towards her and said, "Your young lady went with my young master. I was afraid that you might not find her after looking for her. So I was worried for no reason, so I asked her to go there."
I'm waiting here.
Mu Ling was still sad, but when he heard this, he was afraid that the young lady might be abducted by someone, so he asked her who the young master she mentioned was.
The girl replied that it was Prince Yu.
Mu Ling's heart just fell back into his stomach. The young lady and the prince had become familiar with each other over the past few days, and even secretly had feelings for each other, but there was nothing to worry about. After thinking about it like this, Fang followed this woman here.
Ruan Yuyi motioned for them to sit down as well, "It's not good to just throw away the food before eating a few bites. Since there are only a few of us left, let's sit down and eat."
Mu Ling originally wanted to ask how she was getting along with the prince, but after hearing what she said, he gave up and sat down together happily.
Although Mu Xiang has been with Ruan Yuyi for a longer time, she is a maidservant raised by the Ruan family. She has also worn rich clothes and eaten rich food, so she even thought about etiquette, first setting chopsticks and serving soup for the young lady, and treating her to her.
After another invitation, I sat down.
Xu Shi, the waiter next to him, accepted the explanation and saw that several people were still inside, so he didn't bother him.
Ruan Yuyi ate carefully, and the bottom of one bowl was enough for her to use for a long time, so she only ate about eight percent full before eating.
Mu Xiang and the others couldn't keep her waiting for long, so they took a few hasty bites and found they were full.
The few people didn't stay here for long, and got off the restaurant. Seeing that the coachman was waiting aside, they went back to Cheng Mansion. Sitting in the coach, Ruan Yuyi quietly opened a corner of the curtain, and the scene in front of him kept flashing.
However, her mood became more and more heavy.
She knew that there were some things that she could only put aside for the time being. If she wanted to get rid of them completely, she had to see what happened in the future.
After returning to the courtyard, Ruan Yuyi sat on the couch and rested for a while. Then she felt that the shaking feeling on the carriage gradually dissipated. Mu Xiang brought a cup of tea and prepared it for her to moisten her mouth.
Mu Ling finally got her wish and went out for a trip. Although it was only half a day, her interest was still high, so she started chatting with Ruan Yuyi about the few times she had flown kites in the past.
She talked about how she used some simple things to tie up the paper kite, and also talked about how she ran too fast and was thrown away by the pebbles. It was all a fight between some little maids, and it was different from the master of the back house.
Too many twists and turns.
She listened with interest and responded from time to time.
After talking for a few times, I saw that the sun was getting stronger and the wood was fragrant, so I knew it was late.
Normally, the young lady would have to take a nap. Let’s not talk about the time of her death. Now that she had some free time, she didn’t show any intention of taking a lunch break. She had obviously covered her mouth and started to yawn, but she still managed to hold on.
Mu Xiang found an excuse to pull Mu Ling away. After a while, Ruan Yuyi heard no human voice in her ears. In addition, she moved a lot in the morning, so she felt sleepy. When Mu Xiang opened the door again and came in, she found that she was already leaning on the edge of the couch.
The pillow fell asleep.
She then walked lightly and stepped forward to take off the small table where the tea was placed on the couch. Although she knew that the bed was more comfortable and spacious, let alone whether Mu Xiang had the strength to hold her, just tossing her back and forth, Miss.
It's time to be woken up.
So she only moved Ruan Yuyi's body slightly so that she could sleep more comfortably. After doing this, she withdrew.
Half an hour after Fang came out, a maid came to tell her that there was a distinguished guest in the house, and asked her cousin to go to the main hall. She originally wanted to see Ruan Yuyi with her own eyes, but Mu Xiangke stopped her hard, fearing that she would go in unexpectedly.
, if you don’t keep your voice quiet, it will give the lady a headache.
Mu Xiang felt a little unhappy, and she didn't know whose power this maid relied on. In the past, no one would have called her young lady in a proper manner.
She persuaded the maid, who reluctantly agreed to wait here, and Mu Xiang was able to free herself and enter the inner room.
