After what happened just now, Mu Siyu no longer wants to go to a quiet place. She would rather stay in a crowded place and be disturbed by others than staying in a place where she shouldn't be and bumping into people she shouldn't.
Ye Yingge came over and took her to meet her sisters.
When it comes to socializing, if Mu Siyu wants to open a business, no one here can play with her. She quickly became like a fish in water, turning from passive to active, and the atmosphere at the scene became a lot more lively.
"Mrs. Lu..." Bilu came over, looking like he was hesitant to speak.
Seeing the green, Mu Siyu knew that something was wrong with Fan Shiyou.
She first found an excuse to get away, walked to the corner with Bilu, and asked: "If you don't serve your master well, what do you want from me?"
"The princess asked the servant to give this to Madam." Bilu put the thing in Mu Siyu's hand.
Mu Siyu opened her hand and saw that it was a bulging handkerchief with something hard wrapped inside. When she opened it, she found a golden hairpin inside.
"What did the princess say?"
This is what Fan Shiyou inserted into her head.
I saw it just now.
Don't ask why it's so eye-catching. How could a money obsessed person like her turn a blind eye to such a big gem?
The embroidery on the handkerchief was embroidered by Fan Shiyou herself. The fabric was good, but there was a patch of red lipstick on it. I don't know when it was applied.
No, it wasn't done by rubbing it in.
She is asking for help.
"Where is your princess?" Mu Siyu put the things away.
"The princess said just now that she was feeling a little uncomfortable. She wanted to find a place to rest and ask the servant to hand over the things to the lady." Bilu said.
"Take me there immediately."
Ye Yingge came over and said, "Sister Mu, there is still some time before the banquet. The ladies are discussing playing leaf cards. Sister Mu, please come too!"
"People have three urgent needs." Mu Siyu said, "You guys play, I'll be right back."
Ye Yingge smiled helplessly and said, "Sister Mu, come back soon!"
Mu Siyu took the two girls and left with Bilu. Halfway through, she saw a servant passing by and called him: "Follow me."
"Shiyou." Mu Siyu saw a woman standing in front of her. Judging from her dress and figure, she was Fan Shiyou.
However, there was a man beside her, and that man was none other than the scholar she had just met.
The scholar didn't expect someone to come over. He glanced at Fan Shiyou, got into the arch next to him, and fled quickly.
Fan Shiyou turned around and looked over.
She took a breath and relaxed, but when she looked at Mu Siyu again, her eyes became complicated.
"Sister Mu."
Mu Siyu pretended not to see the scholar just now, and said in a casual tone: "They are playing leaf cards, do you want to go with them?"
"OK!"
From then on, Mu Siyu and Fan Shiyou stayed together and did not separate until the banquet was over, nor did they act alone again.
At the end of the banquet, Ye Yingge stopped Mu Siyu and said, "Sister Mu, I have to stay in Licheng for a few more days. Shall we go out to play tomorrow?"
"Sorry, I have an appointment with the princess. We have something to do tomorrow." Mu Siyu said to Ye Yingge, "We will meet again some other day when we return to Hubei City."
"Okay!" Ye Yingge was disappointed.
In the carriage, Princess Li looked at the outstanding-looking daughter in front of her and said lovingly: "Your cousin organized this banquet today. Isn't it very thoughtful? Your aunt is blessed."
Fan Shiyou pretended not to hear.
Princess Li blamed: "You look like this every time you mention your cousin. What's wrong with him? In our city of Licheng, he is the most handsome man, and he is known as Junzi Mo."
"No matter how good he is, I still don't like him." Fan Shiyou muttered softly.
"Then what do you like?" Princess Li frowned, "You are not young anymore. Even if you are the princess, I can't let you do whatever you want. Only your cousin will pamper you and wait for you like this."
"Mom, I have a headache, please stop talking." Fan Shiyou closed her eyes.
Mu Siyu regarded herself as a decoration and did not participate in the quarrel between their mother and daughter.
After the mother and daughter had finished arguing, Princess Li remembered that there was a transparent person next to her, talking to her about what happened at the banquet.
"Sister Mu, I drew a set of pictures of what the new wardrobe I want to do recently will look like. Can you help me take a look? You are an expert in this area, and no one has more say than you."
"Okay!" Today's main topic is about to begin.
Princess Li got off the car and went back to the wing. No matter what Fan Shiyou and Mu Siyu talked about, what she was most worried about now was Fan Shiyou's marriage, and nothing else was her concern.
Mu Siyu followed Fan Shiyou back to Youran Courtyard.
"You may have eaten a lot today, but it's not to my taste. I'm not full yet." Fan Shiyou said to Bilu, "I want to eat the walnut cake you made. Please make some."
"yes."
Mu Siyu sat down to drink tea.
Fan Shiyou looked at Zi Su and Zi Yuan: "You guys should go and help Bilu too! Just make whatever your wife likes to eat and treat it as a snack for us."
The girls had all left, and Mu Siyu said, "I saw you had several drinks just now. Is it possible that you haven't had enough fun yet and you want to stay drunk with me today?"
"After they leave, I won't beat around the bush with you." Fan Shiyou looked at Mu Siyu, "You know what happened to me, right?"
Mu Siyu was silent.
"You are so smart, you must have noticed it a long time ago, so you have distanced yourself from me during this period. I should have known better." Fan Shiyou held the tea cup, "Are you angry during this period, thinking that I plotted against you? In fact,
No, I just don’t know what to do. He said this is the way for us to stay together forever, so I just followed it, but I didn’t expect you to save me like this."
"Why are you telling me this?"
"I can't find anyone to discuss with, so I can only tell you that you are the only friend I have had for so many years." Fan Shiyou looked at her, "You saw us in the backyard today, right? You took the girl with you on purpose.
Just to remind us and make us pay attention, right?"
Mu Siyu acquiesced.
"Everyone says that my cousin is very good and is a famous gentleman in Licheng, but I don't like him. I haven't liked him since I was a child. The man's name is Su Tingzheng. I met him three years ago. At that time, he came to our Licheng
Scientific examination. At the age of fifteen, he won the title of scholar, and later he won the title of civil servant. He is a famous talented scholar. When I met him, he was alone in talking among the scholars, not to mention how dazzling he was."
Mu Siyu listened to Fan Shiyou talking about how outstanding the 'lover' was, without interrupting her.
All I can say is that 'beauty is in the eye of the beholder'. The Su Ju man is good-looking, but she always feels that he makes people feel weird. Anyway, she doesn't think very highly of that person.
"He proposed to fake his own death at Qishan Temple last time, but you interrupted him. Today he proposed to fake his own death and leave again, and the method he used was still the same... I didn't like very much. I hesitated!"
Fan Shiyou looked at Mu Siyu and told her how Su Tingzheng replaced her with a similar female corpse and asked her to fake her death and escape.
The more Mu Siyu listened, the more she frowned and said, "Why are you telling me this? This is your private matter and you shouldn't tell me. Are you suspicious of something when you tell me such an important thing?
My lover... doesn't trust me as much as I thought, right?"
