It was getting late, and the female family members left one after another.
Mrs. Mu Er refused to leave: "We haven't talked about your betrothal gift yet, so we won't leave!"
The Shen family also left. Mrs. Shen did not show much enthusiasm. She only said to Mu Yunhan: "We will also entertain guests in a few days. Bring Xiaoying over and let you girls have a private party in the backyard. One table.”
Mu Yunhan smiled and said: "I..."
Mrs. Shen waved her hands lightly: "No need to mention anything else, that's it."
Saying that, he turned around and left.
Miss Shen San took Mu Yunhan's hand and winked at her: "Sister Mu must come, I will post a message for you when I get back."
Miss Shen Si said seriously: "I personally made sweet-scented osmanthus glutinous rice balls for Mu Ying to eat. I learned from the nanny in the south. They are delicious!"
Mrs. Mu Er was envious: "The Shen family wants to thank you."
Mu Yunhan was also very happy. It was rare to meet such a clear and reasonable family.
If it had been anyone else, not only would they not have remembered the sentiment, but they would have felt that she was dragging them down.
In a blink of an eye, all the guests were gone.
Mrs. Gu said kindly: "Please wait a moment, dear in-laws. I'll go and fetch some gentlemen."
Then he asked Mu Yunhan: "Do you want to go play with Xiuyi and the others?"
When discussing the details of marriage, it is always not good for girls to stay aside. This Xiuyi is actually Gu Fenglin's cousin.
When she heard Mrs. Gu's instructions, she immediately stood up with a smile and bowed to Mu Yunhan: "Sister, go play in my room."
Behind Gu Xiuyi, a group of five or six girls of different sizes nodded together, their smiles as if they were cast from the same mold.
Mrs. Mu Er also said: "Hanhan, go with them. It will be over in a while."
Mu Yunhan followed Gu Xiuyi and others outside.
As soon as I walked to the corridor, I heard the sound of footsteps, and a steward came in a hurry, with a majestic expression: "The old lady has an order, everyone is waiting on the spot, and no wandering is allowed!"
Everyone looked at each other, Gu Xiuyi and others had a bit of panic in their eyes, and they exchanged glances with each other, trying to guess what happened.
Mrs. Mu Er quickly pulled Mu Yunhan over and stood beside her, saying, "Since there is something going on at home, let's not disturb him and leave first."
The steward's eyes swept over Mrs. Mu, then landed on Mu Yunhan, and said, "Mrs. Mu and Miss Mu don't leave for now. The old man said that he would also like to invite you to stay for a cup of hot tea."
Not allowed to leave?
Mrs. Mu Er was shocked for a moment. She held Mu Yunhan's hand tightly and said with a stiff face: "Hanhan, this, this..."
Mu Yunhan wondered if Elder Xing's matter had escalated and alerted Old Mrs. Gu.
If so, she really doesn't want to leave.
Then he said to the steward: "I'm staying here. My second aunt has something to do at home, so why not let her go back first."
The steward said: "Please forgive me, Miss Mu. The old man made it very clear that the Gu family and the Mu family have been married for generations and are closely related by flesh and blood. There is no need to hide some things and they should be discussed and handled together."
Having said that, there is no way out, unless you force your way through.
Mrs. Mu Er shrank behind Mu Yunhan and asked worriedly: "I wonder what happened to your second uncle and brother Jin?"
Just as he was thinking about it, footsteps sounded again, and Mr. Mu Er and his son walked in accompanied by Mr. Gu San and others.
Both father and son looked uneasy. When they saw Mu Yunhan, they hurried behind her and the family huddled together in a pile.
