Mu Yunjin heard the voice behind her, she turned back, with a shallow smile on her face, and saw Qin Muyue standing at the entrance of the dining hall.
Qin Muyue met Mu Yunjin's eyes and her lips bloomed into a smile.
"Yunjin sister-in-law, I'm about to eat with Brother Li. Do you want to join us?"
"No, I'm not hungry. You can go eat."
Mu Yunjin pulled the corner of her mouth, when her words drop, she walked over the direction of the back gardens.
Behind her, Qin Muyue looked at Mu Yunjin's back figure and smiled.
On the road towards Glass Spring Pavilion, Zi Xiang stomped her feet and with a face full of grievance for Mu Yunjin she exclaimed:
"Young Miss, what did you mean by saying those to Young Miss Qin? Aren't you the hostess here?"
"Obviously she is a guest, but she still invited you, the mistress of the house, to have dinner. She is really impolite!"
"Okay, okay, don't chatter as soon as I came back. You really have a big head. Qin Muyue tend to do things she likes, Let's just let her be."
Mu Yunjin sighed, when this Qin Muyue came back, her life was not as peaceful as before.
When Zi Xiang saw this, she flattened her mouth, and did not dare to speak again.
Walking to the door of Glass Spring Pavilion, Mu Yunjin paused for a moment, thought for a moment, and looked at Zi Xiang.
"When will Mu Lingzhu marry into the Rong Wangfu?"
Zi Xiang thought about it before she replied.
"Not long, about ten days."
"En, rest early tonight. We will return to Xiang Fu tomorrow."
As soon as her words fell, Mu Yunjin went to her bedroom.
After returning to her room, Mu Yunjin is not in the least sleepy, pacing around the room, her thoughts are completely focused outside the door, listening to the movements outside.
Not knowing for how long after that, Mu Yunjin heard footsteps in the Glass Spring Pavilion.
Hearing it, Mu Yunjin pursed her lips, and quietly walked to the door, opening a slight crack, to peek on the outside movements.
At this time, Chu Li was walking alone towards the opposite room. Seeing the situation, Mu Yunjin looked around again. She did not see Qin Muyue's figure, she was inexplicably relieved.
It was not until Chu Li entered the room that Mu Yunjin closed the door. There was a subtle feeling in her heart that is spilling, little by little.
The next day, Mu Yunjin appeared in the front hall with a pair of panda eyes. Chu Li was coming back from outside, wearing moon-white brocade clothes, light and elegant.
After a glimpse of Mu Yunjin's figure, Chu Li slightly twisted his eyebrows, and his eyes flashed to the bundle on Zi Xiang's hands.
"Where are you going?"
Chu Li indifferently looked towards Mu Yunjin.
"Returning to Xiang fu for a few days."
Mu Yunjin pursed her lips and lifted her eyes to look Chu Li, before subconsciously looking away.
Chu Li heard it and did not say much, only leaving a sentence:
"Come back soon."
When his words fell, he walked towards the back garden.
Mu Yunjin pursed her lips, until Chu Li had gone far, she stared at the direction where Chu Li had just taken, and her heart is suddenly depressed, and completely annoyed.
"Young Miss..."
Zi Xiang frowned.
"Let's go."
Mu Yunjin lightly said before walking outside.
After leaving the door of the huangzi fu, Zi Xiang walked beside Mu Yunjin. She want to talk but stopped several times. Thinking of Chu Li's attitude towards Mu Yunjin, she felt a little helpless.
……….
When Mu Yunjin came to the door of Xiangfu, several servants were outside the door decorating them with red silk and red lanterns. When Mu Yunjin went inside, she saw Mu Xiang and Luo Ningyu sitting in the front hall, seemingly discussing matters.
Nearing to a few steps, she can hear the voice of Mu Xiang and Luo Ningyu talking.
"Master, the list of guests has been drawn up. There have been many happy events in our fu recently, so the list of guests is the same as the previous two times."
Mu Xiang took the guest list in Luo Ningyu's hand, looked at it and nodded.
"Then proceed accordingly."
After saying that, Mu Xiang looked up, and saw Mu Yunjin entering the door, his face lifted up in delight.
"Yunjin is back ah."
"En, I'll be staying at the fu for a few days."
Mu Yunjin looked at Mu Xiang and pulled out a smile.
Mu Xiang looked slightly shocked, although surprised he did not ask much and just smiled.
"Good, the Ascending Flower Pavilion is taken care of regularly, you can still live in it the same as before."
"Thank you, father."
Mu Yunjin then walked out of the front hall.
After entering the garden, Mu Yunjin found that there are happy atmosphere everywhere in the fu and smiled faintly.
"Yunjin? "
A surprised voice of Mu Yunhan sounded from the side.
Mu Yunjin looked over and then saw Mu Yunhan sitting on the garden pavilion sipping tea in. Mu Yunjin smiled.
"Brother."
"Come here."
Mu Yunhan beckoned Mu Yunjin over.
Mu Yunjin nodded, facing Zi Xiang she said:
"Help me put things into the Ascending Flower Pavilion."
"Yes, Young Miss."
Mu Yunjin went into the pavilion and sat down. Mu Yunhan poured her a cup of tea and handed it to her.
"Why did you come back to live in the fu?"
"I have lived in the huangzi fu for a long time now and felt bored and stuffy and wanted to stay here for a few days."
Mu Yunjin drank tea, and faintly replied.
"Seriously?"
Mu Yunhan raised an eyebrow.
"It is not because of Qin Muyue?"
Mu Yunjin shook her head and knocked her fingers carelessly on the edge of the cup, making a crisp sound.
"Elder Brother, how are you getting along with Yuyan jie?"
"Treating each other as honored guest*."
(*Idiom for Mutual respect between husband and wife)
Mu Yunhan looked at Mu Yunjin, and spat out irrelevant words.
Mu Yunjin heard the words and raised an eyebrow and looked at Mu Yunhan straight in the eyes.
"If one-day Yuyan jie meets her beloved one, will Elder Brother help them be together?"
"Yes."
Mu Yunhan replied.
After he spoke, Mu Yunhan sighed again, reached out and rubbed Mu Yunjin's head.
"If you are unhappy, then you can come back, you still have Elder Brother."
"How can I be unhappy?"
Mu Yunjin lifted her chin, and smiled.
"Stupid girl!"
After chatting with Mu Yunhan for a while, Mu Yunjin was in a much better mood. She didn't sleep well last night, and now she yawned incessantly.
After parting with Mu Yunhan, Mu Yunjin went to Ascending Flower Pavilion.
After entering the Ascending Flower pavilion, Mu Yunjin looked at the shabby cottage and felt a sense of returning home.
After lying down on the hard bed, Mu Yunjin turned over and quickly fell asleep.
……….
On the other side, in the Pearl Building.
"What did you say? Mu Yunjin came back?"
Mu Lingzhu is sitting in front of the dressing table, comparing the two pairs of earrings in her hands. After hearing Hong Xia's report she is surprised.
"Yes, I heard them say that they came back with a bundle wrapped in cloth. It is estimated that they will stay longer."
Hongxia replied.
Hearing those words, Mu Lingzhu is stunned for a while, then couldn't help laughing a few times.
"It seems that she was chased out by the Liu huangzi."
"Yes, that Qin family's Young Miss is back, what can Mu Yunjin do? She was proud of herself some time ago, but only after a short period of time, Qin Muyue is back, she has returned to her original shape. "
When Mu Lingzhu's words fell, her heart couldn't restrain her ecstasy. After putting on the earrings, she leaned against the chair and looked at the bronze mirror for a long time.
"Hong Xia, tell me, when this lady marries into Rong Wang Fu, can that Rong Wangfei get the favor of Rong Wang?"
When Hong Xia heard the words, she smiled and approached Mu Lingzhu's hair bun and put on a jade hairpin.
"Young Miss, are you not the Rong Wangfei?"
"He he."
Mu Lingzhu looked down and smiled, her eyes were overflowing of coldness and gnashed her teeth.
"Mu Yunjin killed my mother and troubled me to this extent. When I gain the position of Rong Wangfei, I must give her something to see!"
After speaking, Mu Lingzhu's cold intention is revealed. The corners of her lips smiled with contempt. When Mu Yunjin married Chu Li, isn't it because she saw the glory and dignity of Chu Li's background!
Among the many princes, Chu Li is the most favored candidate for Crown prince. If Chu Li is conferred as the Crown prince, Mu Yunjin will become the Crown princess and the future mother of all land under heavens, the Empress.
Empress……
Mu Yunjin, that ignorant idiot is not fit to be the Empress!
Heh, when she marries into Rong Wang Fu, she must stir Rong Wang to seize the rivers and mountains of the Xi Yuan country together. With her intelligence and abilities she will surely be the best person of merit to Rong Wang.
Mu Yunjin, our contest is really just beginning!
"Let's go to Ascending Flower Pavilion to have a look."
After finishing the bun, Mu Lingzhu got up and went outside.
Mu Lingzhu's show of extravagance is enormous. Since she decided to marry Rong Wang, six maidservants and ten male servants were assigned to her.
At this time, Mu Lingzhu went out of the Pearl building, followed by more than ten followers.
Soon after the entourage arrived at the Ascending Flower Pavilion, they squeezed into a narrow yard.
"Paying respect to Fourth Young Miss."
Zi Xiang is sitting Mu Yunjin's doorway so she saw Mu Lingzhu suddenly come, and immediately got up and made a bow to Mu Lingzhu.
Mu Lingzhu glanced at Zi Xiang for a while before asking.
"Where is Mu Yunjin?"
"Young Miss is resting inside."
Zi Xiang replied.
"Rest?" Mu Lingzhu sneered.
"Is she really resting, or is she hiding? I heard that she was driven back to the Xiang fu by Liu huangzi."
Zi Xiang bit on her lip, she saw that Mu Lingzhu have many people, after a while she did not speak.
"You do not speak, seems that you agree? Aiyo, my Third jiejie is really an unfortunate person. Originally, this meimei was very happy to see her marry into the Liu Huangzi fu. But only a few months later, she was driven out of the fu. It seems that being the Royal daughter-in-law can not be for everyone."
Mu Lingzhu covered her mouth to laugh, and all her followers behind her laughed.
'creak'
The door behind Zi Xiang opened.
Mu Yunjin came out with a tired face. When she saw the small courtyard is full of people, her sight fell on Mu Lingzhu who in front.
"I said I'll sleep well, how come there is a stinky smell of poop. It turns out there is a dog who had just eaten poop."
Mu Yunjin said as she covered her nose, and her face was full of dislike.
Mu Lingzhu paused, and then she immediately realize that Mu Yunjin was scolding her as a dog that can't stop from eating poop*. Her eyes moved slightly, but she was not angry. She instead mocked.
(*It means that bad habits are hard to change.)
"What Third Jiejie said hurt your meimei's heart. Meimei heard that jiejie was expelled from Liu huangzi fu, and specifically came to comfort jiejie."
Mu Yunjin leaned against the door frame and crossed her arms. After hearing the hypocritical words, she responded with a sneering smile.
"Thank you for meimei's kindness. It's all right, so hurry and leave. I don't like noises."
"Oh, Third Young Miss speaks as if an outsider. Wait until our Fourth Young Miss marries into Rong Wangfu, she can ask Rong Wangye to help you talk to Liu huangzi. After all, Rong Wangye is his Imperial Uncle. Liu huangzi will still give him face. Maybe when Liu huangzi hears Rong Wangye's words, he will allow you to return to Huangzi fu!"
