Chapter Thirty Preparations for the Wedding
Mu Ding'an's face froze slightly: "Shameless."
Fu Yan spread the pancake with a nonchalant look on his face. How could he eat it if he was ashamed?
If Mu Ding'an was a little reluctant to finish all the dishes last night, he was quite appetizing for the egg pancake today, and Fu Yan made him another one.
After eating, go to the town.
Lu Yunran stared at the two figures, biting his lips, his body was trembling slightly, and his face was a little blue.
She paid special attention to today. Fu Yan did not leave, but went to the town with Mu Ding'an. What was he going to do?
She had a very bad guess.
She really wanted to rush up and ask clearly, but she didn't dare. Mu Ding'an had a temper that was not easy to mess with.
"Lu Yunran." Duan called her by name and surname in the yard, with a fierce anger.
From beginning to end, Mrs. Duan did not know about this matter. She was doing the same thing as Lu Yunran, burying herself in piles of clothing and needlework all day long. However, Mrs. Duan was originally a noble lady, but now she has been reduced to such a situation.
But she felt that she was different from those vulgar people in the countryside who were unwilling to go out every day to avoid lowering her status. Even in the street, Duan only let her daughter go out to show her face, but she always put on airs.
Lu Yunran entered the courtyard, and Mrs. Duan took out a suit of clothes she had made with a look of impatient disgust on her face.
"Look at the clothes you make. They are getting worse and worse. What will people say when you bring such finished products to the town? They are afraid that they will dislike us for lowering our standards and will never give us work again. You want to starve to death."
It’s great.”
The stitching of the clothes was crooked, which was even worse than last time. Lu Yunran's condition was really bad these days. No wonder Mrs. Duan was so angry.
"At worst, I'll just pick out the stitches and do it again." Lu Yunran was also in a bad mood and hummed.
"When Jie Tian is about to deliver the finished product, how will you explain that you have produced such defective products?" Duan's formerly beautiful and plump face, after a year of exile, suffered daily mental torture and lost its former glory.
, a lot thinner, but traces of beauty can still be seen.
At this moment, she was so angry that Lu Yunran only felt ferocious looking at her.
She is all about Mu Ding'an now. If Mu Ding'an is really like what she thinks, what's the importance of these clothes and veils?
"I said I would do it again." Lu Yunran shouted, thinking of his grievances, tears welled up in his eyes.
Mrs. Duan was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect that she just said it a little harshly and actually made her daughter cry. She couldn't bear it. She was in this situation and only had this daughter to depend on.
"Silly daughter, what's happened to you these past two days? You were not like this before." Duan held Lu Yunran's hand and said with some sadness: "You should adjust yourself, what you have done to me, mother
I’ll fix it again for you.”
Lu Yunran was even more sad. Thinking that it was Fu Yan's appearance that disrupted her life, she couldn't help but feel hatred in her heart.
Only when that woman is gone will her life return to its original state.
"What do you want to buy?" Mu Ding'an asked when they arrived in the town.
"Is there anyone you'd like to invite to dinner?"
Fu Yan was thinking about having a banquet, but this would probably cost a lot of money, and she only had two taels of silver in her hand.
"There is one."
Fu Yan naturally thought of Lu Yunran: "Then let's cook one more dish."
It's just the same table as before, without any big expense.
"Just buy some food, some firecrackers, and some wedding couplets," Fu Yan said.
Although they are getting married tomorrow, the relationship between the two people is light and matter-of-fact, and there is no festive atmosphere.
After buying these, I went back and spent noon at home.
Fu Yan cooked while Mu Dingan posted wedding couplets on the door.
"Hey, Mu Yazi is getting married. Who is it with and what day is it?" An aunt passed by and said in surprise.
"Tomorrow." Mu Ding'an said.
The aunt was even more surprised.
Anyone in the village who wants to get married will notify the villagers several days in advance and come to have a banquet on the day.
Mu Yazi is getting married tomorrow, why doesn't anyone know about it?
"Then why don't we tell the people in the village? They don't know and it's hard to come and help."
"No need to help, no banquet."
The aunt was confused: "Here, Mu Yazi, who is the bride? Will this wrong her?"
Mu Ding'an said nothing.
The aunt brought trouble to herself and had no choice but to leave, but she looked puzzled.
Lu Yunran soon learned the news and cried so hard in the yard that even the Duan family knew about it.
Mrs. Duan was very surprised. She knew that there was a girl in Mu Ding'an's yard. It was said that they lived together, not even husband and wife. She had seen the girl briefly and she looked ordinary. She never thought that she would become her daughter.
threats.
She and Lu Yunran had the same idea. When Mu Ding'an was able to return to the capital, he would take the mother and daughter back with him so that they could live a prosperous life again.
Now that she suddenly knew the news, Duan's heart suddenly fell to the bottom.
"Mom, please think of something quickly." Lu Yunran grabbed Duan's hand: "Brother Ding'an is going to marry someone else. The first marriage in this country is not the first wife, so what hope do I have."
Duan was silent, with an ugly expression on her face: "Okay, I'll go see Mu Ding'an." Duan rarely went out and showed up, even if Mu Ding'an's yard was very close, she had never been there.
But this time, for the sake of her daughter's future, she decided to go there herself.
A woman entered the courtyard. Although she was exiled to a place like this and her face had become much thinner, she still tried her best to take care of herself. In addition, she was doing needlework and could not go to the ground or go up the mountain. Even in her current state,
Those native-born country women cannot compare.
This person is Duan.
Since he was an elder, Mu Ding'an couldn't be rude, so he moved a stool for Duan to sit on.
Mrs. Duan glanced at the kitchen. The girl was waving a shovel. The aroma of lean meat mixed with the fragrance of garlic wafted out. She smelled of good cooking skills. There was silence on the girl's face. Duan could see a kind of tenacity.
"The prince is getting married?" asked Duan.
"Yeah." Mu Dingan posted a happy couplet on the door of his room.
"You know Yunran's feelings for you. Over the past year, she has been guarding you without any regrets. She even ignored the mayor's son's proposal. You are stabbing her in the heart.
.”
Duan said sadly.
In the kitchen, expectations rose again on Fu Yan's face. If Mr. Duan could persuade Mu Ding'an, then he could proceed as planned.
"If one day I get what I want, I will give you a hand, that's all. I can't do anything else."
Mu Ding'an said.
Duan heard what he meant and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he could return to the capital, the matter of Mu Ding'an not marrying Lu Yunran didn't seem to be that important. When he arrived in the capital, there were so many young men from aristocratic families, and he was afraid of being spoiled for choice.
However, she still felt that it was safer to have her daughter tied to Mu Ding'an, and she planned to fight for it again.
