Wang Zefang asked with some confusion: "Cousin, what are you doing?"
Mu Yunhuan said: "My cousin has saved my life and taught me many times, but I can't repay you. I know that my cousin is going to take part in the examination, so I will give you some pens, inks, paper and inkstones. I hope that my cousin can win the championship in one fell swoop."
"
She opened the box, and inside was a set of fine pens, inks, paper and inkstones, which looked very valuable at first glance.
Wang Zefang frowned, looked at what Mu Yun gave him as a farewell, and said, "This is Duan Inkstone. I heard that Duan Inkstone is the best among inkstones. The set you got is even more valuable. Where did you get such a precious thing?"
of?"
Mu Yunhuan said casually: "My mother bought this for me before. I have a lot of pens, inks, paper and inkstones there, so it's useless to keep it. I might as well give it to my cousin. I hope my cousin won't dislike it."
Wang Zefang had doubts in his heart and asked: "Seriously?"
Mu Yunhuan said: "Of course, you also know that I have a reputation as a talented woman in the capital. In order to cultivate me, my father and mother gave me the best pens, inks, papers and inkstones.
Furthermore, my mother was once the richest man in Pingyang. When she married my father, she brought a lot of dowry. She only had me as a daughter, and she was very willing to give to me. This is a little bit of my love for my cousin. Cousin, please accept it.
Well, otherwise I will feel uneasy."
Wang Zefang couldn't refuse after hearing what she said, so he thanked her for her kindness and accepted the gift.
Mu Yunhuan was extremely happy and said: "Then I won't disturb my cousin's reading." She knelt down and turned to leave, but Wang Zefang suddenly called her: "Wait a minute."
Mu Yunhuan turned around and saw that Wang Zefang had taken a bunch of candied haws-gluts from somewhere and handed it to her: "When I went out with Brother Xiao today, he bought a bunch of candied haws-gluts for Yan Yan, and he also gave me a bunch, but I
If you don’t like sweets, I’ll give them to you!”
Mu Yunhuan's eyes lit up, she took the candied haws of apples and said happily: "I have never eaten candied haws of apples in my whole life, thank you cousin."
He couldn't wait to take a bite and said, "It's so delicious."
Wang Zefang looked at her satisfied look and smiled: "If you like it, I will bring a bunch back for you when I go out."
Mu Yunhuan's heart moved when she heard this. She looked at Wang Zefang in front of her and suddenly felt like something was filling her heart. She sniffed and nodded fiercely: "Thank you, cousin."
Wang Zefang smiled slightly and touched his nose uncomfortably.
Mu Yunhuan didn't want to disturb him. Wen Shu took the candied haws and left happily. When she returned to the second room, she still had two candied haws in her hand.
Afraid of being seen by others, she took out a clean handkerchief from her arms and was about to hide the uneaten candied haws when she suddenly heard a cold and stern voice asking: "Where have you been?"
Mu Yunhuan was startled. She hurriedly hid the candied haws in her hand behind her back and called out: "Brother."
Mu Xingze glanced at her and said, "What's hidden behind your back? Take it out!"
Mu Yunhuan took out the bunch of uneaten candied haws. Seeing Mu Xingze's expression change, he snatched the candied haws from her hand and asked, "Who gave it to you?"
"I...I bought it myself."
Mu Yunhuan knew that once his elder brother knew that it was from Wang Zefang, he would think twice, so he lied and claimed that he bought it.
But how could Mu Xingze believe that? What's more, he saw Xiao Chengyi and Wang Zefang each taking a bunch of candied haws when they left in Zhuangyuan Building today.
The two grown men don't know how to eat this kind of food, so they must be buying it for girls.
Needless to say, Xiao Chengyi must have bought it for his third sister, but what about Wang Zefang? He couldn't have eaten it himself, right?
Mu Xingze thought about today's assassination. Instead of doing anything to Xiao Chengyi, it actually killed six of the prince's secret guards, causing him to be scolded by the prince.
Thinking of this, Mu Xingze's pent-up anger suddenly flared up.
