In the room, Mu Siyu was kneading dough and making various exquisite pastries.
The conditions in ancient times were limited, so she had to find a way to create a variety of modern snacks from the limited conditions. Among them, cakes were the most difficult to make and took a lot of ingredients.
"Sister-in-law." Lu Xuan walked in: "What do I need to do?"
Mu Siyu turned back and looked at him doubtfully: "You don't have to do anything, just go about your business."
"But..." Lu Xuan hesitated.
"Do you have anything to say?" Mu Siyu stopped what she was doing. "Although I'm not as smart as your brothers, I can sometimes help give you ideas and listen to them."
"Today I met Miss Zheng Er."
Lu Xuan slowly recounted what happened when he met Zheng Shuyu just now.
Mu Siyu was confused when she heard this and couldn't laugh or cry.
"What did she think?"
"Later I thought about it, Miss Zheng Er must have no choice to say those ridiculous things to an unfamiliar person like me. I was a little worried that Qian Zhongyun was not a good match. If she was really forced to marry like that
I am a man who is afraid that his life will be ruined. Although I have nothing to do with Miss Zheng Er, she is your friend, and she has helped our family a lot in the past, so I feel very uneasy."
"Don't worry, even if she doesn't have you, she still has other ways. But compared to other ways, finding someone she likes and marrying her is the least harmful." Mu Siyu said with a smile.
Lu Xuan coughed lightly: "Sister-in-law, please don't talk nonsense."
"Our Second Master Lu is indeed a little bit better than that Qian. Her vision is right, but I don't agree with treating marriage this way. You did nothing wrong." Mu Siyu said, "But I and I
She is a friend and we cannot ignore her affairs. I will ask her if there is any other way. If not, it is better for her to leave Hubei City and find another place to live a good life."
If Zheng Shuyu wants to leave, Mu Siyu will ask Lu Yi to find a way to open a household registration certificate so that Zheng Shuyu can change his identity and live without any restrictions.
Lu Xuan felt much better after hearing Mu Siyu's words.
As long as Zheng Shuyu doesn't fall into the clutches of the devil, he doesn't have to feel guilty.
Mu Siyu originally thought of going to Zheng Shuyu, waiting for the snacks to be steamed, and bringing her some snacks. However, when she went to find Zheng Shuyu with the snacks, she was told that Zheng Shuyu was no longer staying at Zheng's house.
"Mrs. Lu?" The carriage stopped and Zheng Xinyue's maid opened the curtain. Zheng Xinyue sat in the carriage and looked at her. "The second sister doesn't live in the mansion. If you want to find her, go to the house in Huangjiao Hutong, the red door.
That’s it.”
"Thank you, Miss Zheng."
"Mrs. Lu, please help me persuade my second sister that marriage is a matchmaker's decision and is ordered by her parents. It's embarrassing for her to hide like this. She will have to endure hardship when she marries into the Qian family in the future." Zheng Yunyue looked worried. "I'm like this
My sister, she has had her own ideas since she was a child. She also has misunderstandings about me as a sister, and does not listen to my good advice. Mrs. Lu has a good relationship with her, and she always listens to what she says. Seeing that the wedding is approaching, Mrs. Lu can
Please help me."
"I have something to do with Shuyu, so it's not convenient for me to interfere in her private affairs." After Mu Siyu finished speaking, she turned around and left.
"Mrs. Lu, tell my second sister that my uncle fell ill because of her. If she is a filial daughter, she shouldn't let him be so upset."
Mu Siyu found the red door Zheng Xinyue mentioned, knocked on the door, and heard Qiu Shuang's voice coming from inside, knowing that she had found something wrong.
It seemed that Zheng Shuyu's every move was under the surveillance of the Zheng family. The Zheng family knew that she would not leave Hubei City, so they allowed her to roam freely for a few days.
If she hasn't gone back by the wedding day, I'm afraid the Zheng family will tie her to a sedan chair.
"Mrs. Lu, why are you here?"
"Is your lady at home?"
"We just came back. Miss is here, please come in quickly."
Zheng Shuyu's voice came from inside: "Who is coming?"
Mu Siyu said: "It's me."
"I smell the fragrance. Did you make something delicious?" Zheng Shuyu walked out of it.
"Do you have a dog nose? You have indeed made delicious pastries. You have never tasted them before. Come and try them."
"Then I have to taste it."
"Miss Qiu Shuang, come and try it too."
"I don't need it." Qiu Shuang said.
Mu Siyu saw Qiu Shuang entering the house and said to Zheng Shuyu, "Have you thought of a way?"
"Your brother-in-law really has nothing to say to you, even this kind of thing." Zheng Shuyu said with a smile: "I have no other intention, I just think it would be great if I could be your sister-in-law. However,
Your brother-in-law's reaction was also what I expected, and it's not like someone like him would sacrifice his happiness for a woman he's never met."
"Don't mind. He told me the matter because he was worried about your situation. He is also soft-hearted. If you really marry someone named Qian, he will probably feel uneasy."
"Then tell him and let him marry me!"
"What are you thinking about? How can marriage be a trivial matter?"
"Look, he is soft-hearted, but he doesn't want to marry me. It shows that he still has a bottom line." Zheng Shuyu's eyes were full of surprise when she saw the small cake. "Wow, this looks delicious."
Mu Siyu watched Zheng Shuyu finish a piece of small cake.
"It's so delicious. If you don't make furniture, you can make a fortune selling these small cakes."
"Of course, don't forget that I made a fortune selling braised pork." Mu Siyu said, "I'm not bad at eating either."
After all, as a single person for many years, wouldn’t it be too miserable if he didn’t reward himself with food?
"That's great!" Zheng Shuyu was envious. "You see, men won't stop you from doing business. I think your brother-in-law is not bad at all. If I marry him and can be your sister-in-law, I can rest assured in the future.
It’s business.”
"The idea is good. If you two are in love, I support it, but you are nothing now, so don't think about these messy things. What can I help you next? My brother-in-law can't lend it to you.
Yes, I can lend it to you, as long as it’s what I can do, you’re welcome, just give me your order.”
"I thought of several options. One of them was to tell the public that I was a stone girl and could not marry. The second was to say that I had lost my virginity and my reputation would be ruined. The third was to tell the public that I had an affair.
Unruly women..."
Mu Siyu: "..."
Zheng Shuyu looked at her expression and chuckled: "What's your reaction? I'm talking about myself, not you. It looks like you're the one who's been slandered."
"This world is cruel and unfair to women. If you still wrong yourself like this, how will you go forward?" Mu Siyu said, "What's more, if you want to do business, how can you do it without a good reputation?"
"That was my original plan, but then I thought about it, why should I suffer this injustice? So, I changed my mind and thought of another way."
