Before dinner, Ximen Shuying was chatting with Mrs. Quan in the living room. From the spotless floor-to-ceiling glass door, they could be seen sitting next to each other, as if they were very intimate. Haha laughter came from the living room from time to time Mu Jiaren couldn't help but look into the living room, feeling aggrieved and uncomfortable.
Mu Jiaren was still in the yard helping the housekeeper tidy up the yard, how she wished that the one sitting next to Mrs. Quan talking and laughing was herself, not that Ximen Shuying.
No, you can't just sit and wait, and you can't let Ximen Shuying make calculations like this, you still have to find a way.
Putting down the dark green shower that was watering the flowers in her hand, Mu Jiaren casually wiped a handful of water on her apron, leaned up to the housekeeper and asked softly, "Uncle Wang, what does Mrs. Quan usually like?"
The housekeeper who was pruning the bushes suddenly stopped, took off his white tool gloves, thought about it seriously, and finally said reluctantly: "Miss Mu, I really don't know about this. Do some rough work, I really don't know what Mrs. Quan likes."
The housekeeper pondered for a while, and then said: "Madam Quan usually likes a lot of things, such as bracelets, necklaces, rings, bags, these housekeepers alone have seen her buy a lot, I don't know what she likes. "
Mu Jiaren lowered her head in disappointment. She probably bought some very luxurious brands. Now that she has no money, what should she do to please Madam Quan?
"Hey." Mu Jiaren sighed heavily, feeling that she was so bad that even Mrs. Quan didn't like her.
The housekeeper frowned as if he was thinking about something, and suddenly he said "Ah!" and said, "Miss Mu, I suddenly remembered that it will be May Day in a few days, and that day is Madam Quan's birthday."
The butler patted his head, blaming himself for being old, for forgetting such an important matter.
"Really? It's really God helping me." Mu Jiaren exclaimed excitedly, her little face flushed because of excitement, this is really an excellent opportunity, although I don't have money, but I can do something useful In order to please Mrs. Quan, maybe she will let go of her prejudice against herself.
dinner.
Mrs. Quan, Quan Xiao, Mu Jiaren, and Ximen Shuying sat around the dining table. There was a table of dishes on the table, including cold dishes, hot dishes, and vegetarian dishes.
"Auntie, this meal is so rich, I really like it." Ximen Shuying shouted in surprise, her face almost burst into laughter, it was exaggerated.
Mu Jiaren felt hypocritical, Ximen Shuying didn't even take a bite of the food, so she just said that she really liked it, isn't she talking nonsense with her eyes open?
Mu Jiaren's goosebumps almost fell all over her body. She has to admire Ximen Shuying's deep morality and thick skin. It seems that she has to act cautiously in the future. If one is not careful, there will be no bones left ah.
"Yes, it's specially prepared for you, Xiaoying, please stay a few more days this time, Auntie hasn't seen you for a long time." Mrs. Quan smiled and picked up her chopsticks to pick up food for Ximen Shuying, completely ignoring Mu Jiaren , as if there were only the two of them at the dinner table.
Ximen Shuying was eager for Madam Quan to say such a thing, but she didn't dare to agree in a hurry, worried that Quan Xiao would suspect her purpose of coming this time, so she said with some reluctance: "Auntie, what a shame, I came to Quancheng to do business. Yes, by the way, I made a special trip to see your old man, and is it convenient for me to stay?"
"It's inconvenient." Quan Xiao, who had been silently burying his head in his soup, said this abruptly, and everyone looked at him, especially Ximen Shuying, who was a little embarrassed.
"What are you talking about? It's not up to you if it's convenient or not, it's up to me." Mrs. Quan gave her son a blank look, turned around and warmly took Ximen Shuying's hand and said, "Xiaoying, don't listen to him. Yes, Auntie let you stay and stay with Auntie."
"Okay!" Ximen Shuying readily agreed this time. Anyway, as long as she stays, she will have a chance to run on Mu Jiaren and try to get her out of the villa.
Her proud eyes shot at Mu Jiaren, who was buried in her meal. Mu Jiaren stared at the white rice in the bowl and ate seriously, as if she didn't see Ximen Shuying's provocative gaze.
In the middle of the night, it was already pitch black outside the window of the bedroom. Mu Jiaren lay on the big bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. Originally, her life here was already very difficult. Mrs. Quan didn't like her, and she managed to cope with it, but now suddenly With a Ximen Shuying here, wouldn't her life be more difficult in the future.
No, we still have to deal with Mrs. Quan quickly.
But, what can I do to get it done? Mu Jiaren was irritated and grabbed her hair randomly, and forcibly tampered her long, soft hair into a bird's nest, but she still didn't think of a good way.
Her throat was dry and smoky. Mu Jiaren got up, put on her slippers, put on her pajamas, and tried her best to open the bedroom door lightly. She came to the living room to drink some water. Before she reached the living room, she heard someone coming from the living room. The sound of talking, and the living room is also brightly lit, it seems that someone is still asleep.
Who will be the big night?Mu Jiaren leaned against the wall curiously, pricking up her ears like a cat.
It was Mrs. Quan's voice: "This ancient blue and white porcelain is really beautiful, elegant, quiet, and superior to any luxury goods."
"Yes, ma'am, as long as you like it." The girl serving beside her kept yawning and perfunctory Madam Quan, complaining in her heart, it's already twelve o'clock in the night, it's time to go to bed, but this Madam Quan of their family likes to sleep in the dead of night Time to take out these treasured antiques to appreciate.
As if she couldn't appreciate it during the day, the girl complained in her heart.
"Bring me that calligraphy and painting of Kangxi, and I'll take a look again." Mrs. Quan ordered the girl, and the girl quickly found a pair of calligraphy and painting among a pile of cultural relics and handed it to Mrs. Quan.
"Oh, this is not from the Kangxi period, this is from the Qianlong period. Emperor Qianlong's aesthetics is not as good as his father Kangxi." Madam Quan complained, got up and went to the pile of cultural relics to find calligraphy and paintings from the Kangxi period.
"Ha!" The girl next to her yawned three times in a row.
Wisdom eyes shot out from the slits of her glasses, looking at the girl next to her, Madam Quan quickly waved her hand, sighed and said, "Okay, okay, you won't appreciate it just by looking at it, go to sleep now."
As if she had received an amnesty, the girl said goodnight to Mrs. Quan and went back to her room to sleep.
"I really don't understand, such a good cultural relic can't be appreciated."
Madam Quan shook her head helplessly, feeling sorry for those who would not appreciate it.
"Tsk tsk, it's really beautiful." Mrs. Quan picked up the blue and white porcelain again, and looked at it carefully under the incandescent lamp, wearing reading glasses, with surprise in her eyes, she couldn't put it down.
Mu Jiaren's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Mrs. Quan likes antiques?Mu Jiaren probed her head and looked towards the living room. Sure enough, Mrs. Quan was holding the blue and white porcelain as if she was holding a baby, and she was still looking at it with relish.
Mu Jiaren's heart was full of joy, and in an instant, a wonderful idea rose in her heart, maybe she could... She covered her mouth and started laughing.
The next morning.
The nanny set up a table of breakfast early, and everyone walked out of the room one after another and sat at the table to prepare to eat.
Ximen Shuying warmly greeted Quan Xiao: "Good morning."
Quan Xiao didn't even look at her, and coldly pulled away the dining table and chairs and sat down, but Quan Xiao's behavior didn't affect Ximen Shuying's mood in the slightest, she deliberately chose a seat next to Quan Xiao and sat down.
However, Mu Jiaren could not be seen for a long time.
"Where did Miss Mu go?" Madam Quan asked her son Quan Xiao while sitting at the head of the dining table, Quan Xiao casually picked up a sandwich and put it in his mouth to chew, while eating, he shook his head nonchalantly: "How do I know? "
"Could it be that he hasn't woken up yet?" Mrs. Quan guessed, and ordered the nanny to check if Miss Mu was still in the room, and told her to get up for breakfast.
"It's really unreasonable. What time is this? Miss Mu hasn't woken up yet. It's fine for us to wait for her. Auntie has to wait for her. Isn't this a bit too much?" Ximen Shuying immediately pulled her face. , said unwillingly.
The butler hurried in at this time, wiped the sweat off his forehead and said, "Madam, marshal, I'm sorry, I forgot, Miss Mu specifically told me to tell everyone not to wait for her, Miss Mu went out for a run in the morning, Tell you not to wait for her, you can eat first."
"Go out for a run?" Mrs. Quan couldn't react, but soon, she smiled: "Okay, young people know that exercising is a good thing, that's all right, let's wrong Miss Mu, let's eat quickly."
running?What tricks is this Mu Jia playing?Ximen Shuying was a little unpredictable at once, she quietly looked at Quan Xiao from the corner of her eye, and found that he was eating calmly and didn't care about Mu Jiaren at all.
Ximen Shuying let out a long breath, and felt complacent again. Seeing Quan Xiao's indifferent look just now, he didn't care about Mu Jiaren at all. He was just playing around with Mu Jiaren. She still has a chance, as long as she works hard , Mu Jiaren will never take away the power lord.
"Xiaoying, why don't you go shopping with your aunt after dinner?" Mrs. Quan asked with a smile.
"Of course, you can go shopping wherever you say." Ximen Shuying agreed hastily.
……
Quancheng Barracks.
Just now, he was transferred to inspect the morning exercises of a navy squad. Quan Xiao was very dissatisfied and reprimanded the officers in charge of the navy squad loudly, thinking that they were too lax. If they really fought, they would not be able to go to the battlefield like this.
The officer who was reprimanded did not dare to say a word, and stood there with his head down.
Qingyan came over, waved the officer to leave, and the officer left quickly, Qingyan smiled and said: "Your Excellency, don't be too strict with them, it's because your requirements are too high, in fact, their progress is quite big, take it easy."
"Where did Mu Jiaren go this morning?" Quan Xiao asked suddenly.
Qingyan smiled mysteriously: "You guess."
……
It was already noon when Ximen Shuying and Mrs. Quan came back, they were carrying big and small bags in their hands, especially Mrs. Quan's face was full of spring breeze, although she was tired but very happy.
As soon as they returned to the living room, Mu Jiaren in the living room got up and poured a cup of tea respectfully for Mrs. Quan, handed it over and said with a smile, "Aunt Quan, this is the West Lake Longjing tea that just came into the market, you can try it."
A gleam of light flashed in Madam Quan's eyes, and it was fleeting. Madam Quan took the tea, squinted her eyes and sniffed it, and exclaimed: "It's delicious tea, beauty, where did you get it?" of?"
"I went to the morning market to buy it." Mu Jiaren smiled and scratched her head in embarrassment.
Mu Jiaren was still in the yard helping the housekeeper tidy up the yard, how she wished that the one sitting next to Mrs. Quan talking and laughing was herself, not that Ximen Shuying.
No, you can't just sit and wait, and you can't let Ximen Shuying make calculations like this, you still have to find a way.
