Chapter 112 Children
Mu Nanyan knew who was coming without looking outside, "Didn't you leave?"
"Wife, I'm just worried, so I wanted to wait until you fall asleep before leaving." Jun Zhuoyuan climbed into the house skillfully.
Mu Nanyan rolled her eyes. Not even the wheelchair could stop him. "You must be used to breaking into boudoirs. Tell me, how many girls' boudoirs have you broken into?"
Jun Zhuoyuan immediately raised three fingers and said, "Wife, I swear that I have only been in your boudoir."
Mu Nanyan snorted in a mean way, "You are so honest. Now hurry up and leave. It is quite dark outside and you will have to walk a long way back home."
"My wife still loves me." Jun Zhuoyuan took Mu Nanyan's hand and rubbed it on his face.
Mu Nanyan seriously suspected that she had chosen a fool, who was tall but not very smart.
Mu Nanyan lay down without any hesitation, and Jun Zhuoyuan leaned close to her head, "Wife, do you want to hear a story?"
Mu Nanyan closed her eyes and said, "Do you think I'm a child?"
"To me, you are just a child, a child who needs to be taken care of. Your hands are so cold in such a hot day. Let me see if your feet are so cold too." Without waiting for her consent, Jun Zhuoyuan had already reached the end of the bed and pulled out a pair of white little feet.
"young married woman……"
Before Jun Zhuoyuan could say anything, Mu Nanyan covered his mouth first, "Can you stop calling me wife? We haven't gotten married yet, and it sounds weird."
Jun Zhuoyuan grumbled with reluctance on his face, but he finally compromised, "Yan Yan, why didn't you tell me that your feet were so cold?"
The words that Mu Nanyan was about to say were choked by the first two words. Fortunately, she is better than her wife, so she could only endure it.
"I feel it's not too cold. Maybe I'm used to it." Mu Nanyan retracted her feet.
Jun Zhuoyuan looked at her distressedly, his mind filled with many scenes of Mu Nanyan being abused in the Mu family, "Yanyan, don't move, let me cover you up."
"It's useless." Mu Nanyan said casually. It's not like she hasn't tried before. When she first came to this world, she stuffed a hot water bottle into her bed many times, but it was of no use and her body was getting colder and colder.
"What if it works? Any relief the better. Go to sleep and I'll tell you a story." Jun Zhuoyuan picked up her feet again, held them in his arms, and carefully covered her with the quilt.
Seeing that he insisted, Mu Nanyan no longer refused. She gently stroked the cricket a few times and closed her eyes.
Jun Zhuoyuan cleared his throat and lowered his voice, "Once upon a time there was a little girl......"
The next day, when Mu Nanyan opened her eyes again, the people around her had already disappeared, "Wanxi."
Wan Xi, who was watering the herbs in the yard, heard the sound, put down the tools at hand, and pushed the door open with the prepared basin of water. "Miss, you are awake. How did you sleep last night?"
Mu Nanyan stretched lazily and said, "It's very comfortable." Last night was the most comfortable and peaceful sleep she had had since she came here. She didn't know if it was because Jun Zhuoyuan was with her.
"Miss Wanxi will help you wash up."
Mu Nanyan put on her shoes and took the toothbrush, "I can do it myself, you go do your own thing." Mu Nanyan reached out and rubbed Wanxi's head.
Wanxi bowed and left.
Wushuang rushed into the yard, put down the lunch box, panted, and said intermittently: "Miss..., the mansion... the mansion..."
Mu Nanyan put down the things in her hands and helped her to smooth her back, "Wanxi, pour her a glass of water, take a breath and talk slowly."
Wushuang took the teacup and drank a sip of water in a hurry. His breathing gradually became steady. "Miss, many people came to the front yard, carrying large and small boxes. They are all the stewards of various palaces."
"It should be my change of name fee. I didn't expect it to come so early. Wait until I finish washing up to pick it up."
Mu Nanyan washed up slowly and picked out a purple dress. After observing Jun Zhuoyuan for some time, she found that he seemed to like purple very much. She had read in novels before that people should wear couple clothes when they are in love. Now that this good thing has happened to her, she would be sorry for not wearing it.
The old lady in the front yard sat in the main seat, looking at the open box below with greed in her eyes, and did not hear Lu Rou's reminder at all.
"Madam, Madam." Lu Rou called out twice and seeing that she didn't move, she simply stood up straight and looked at Mu Xiwen who had just entered the room.
When the servants present saw him come in, they all bowed and saluted, "Master!"
When the stewards in the various princes' palaces saw him, they all stood up and saluted, "Prime Minister Mu."
Seeing this, Mu Xiwen was in a very good mood, "What are you all here for today?" Although they are all servants, they are all prominent figures. Some of them have been following the prince since they were young, and two of the older ones used to serve the emperor.
Shen originally had a gloomy face. She had heard everything that happened at the palace banquet last night. As expected, the slut born from a bitch is so shameless that she even dared to propose to herself in public. Is she so eager to get married, you bitch?
I don’t know what these princes were thinking. They gave these nice things directly to her. It’s such a waste. The blood jade in this box would look beautiful if it was made into a head ornament and worn on Yue’er’s head.
Shen could only think about it now. After all, there were so many people. Although not all princes had sent gifts, there were at least ten people sitting in this courtyard, and five princes had sent gifts.
Mu Yuning, who was standing behind Shen, was even more envious when she saw these things. She had been picking up the things left by Murong Yue. She had never seen the world, and today's things opened her eyes. However, the more she thought about it, the angrier she got. Why were all these things given to that stinky girl Mu Nanyan, who was a jinx who brought bad luck to her mother? Why?
The Jiang family members were genuinely happy for Mu Nanyan. It seemed that the royal family valued Nanyan. Mu Xiyao was even more envious of her for having a good marriage.
Mu Wanwan also heard about her feat at the palace banquet last night, and she admired Mu Nanyan even more. Every woman's marriage is arranged by her parents and the matchmaker, but Mu Nanyan was the only one who proposed to the emperor, which made her like him very much.
Mu Nanyan hurried over after everyone was seated. She was fast enough, early in the morning. If she hadn't gone to bed early last night, she would not have gotten up yet.
The steward of the eldest prince's mansion was the first to see Mu Nanyan, and he hurriedly stood up to greet her, "This old servant pays his respects to the Ninth Princess." The rest of the people also stood up one after another to pay their respects.
The steward of the eldest prince's mansion took out the gift list and handed it to Wan Xi, who was standing beside him. "Princess Ninth Prince, this is the money for changing your name that our prince asked me to send. Please take a look, Princess Ninth Prince."
Mu Nanyan smiled and said, "Thank you for coming all the way here, father-in-law. No one gave me a cup of tea. Wushuang will ask the kitchen to send some herbal tea."
After hearing this, Mu Xiwen's face turned dark and he turned to look at Shen. Shen was so frightened that she trembled. She forgot about this matter after that. Besides, these gifts were not for her, Yue'er, so why should she help with the reception?
The old butler hurriedly thanked her, "Thank you, Ninth Princess, for still thinking of me. Since the gift has been delivered, I will not keep it any longer, so as not to annoy you."
Before Mu Xiwen could react, the steward of the eldest prince's mansion and the servants had already stepped out of the courtyard. The old lady sitting in the main seat suddenly felt embarrassed and secretly cursed Mu Nanyan for being nosy. If it weren't for her, how could the Mu family offend the eldest prince's mansion.
The remaining stewards didn't even wait for the kitchen to serve tea. They handed over the gift lists and left. Mu Xiwen didn't know whether to keep them or not, and felt so embarrassed that he just turned around and left, shaking his sleeves.
Shen knew that she had done something wrong but dared not say a word and could only sit in her seat silently.
But Lu Rou, who was behind the old lady, had left the front hall at some point.
Mu Nanyan sat back in her chair and watched the servants carrying gifts into her yard.
Shen couldn't sit still any longer. It was not a pleasant feeling to watch the money run away. "Miss, have you sent all these gifts to the warehouse? I'll give you the key, otherwise you can't get in."
The old lady was originally thinking about how to talk about this matter. When she saw that Shen spoke fluently, she nodded with satisfaction.
Mu Nanyan felt sick when she saw their expressions. They wanted to kill her and make money from her. How could they be so shameless? They got all the good things. They were really happy after farting.
"I have a place to put it in my yard, so I don't need Auntie's key."
This sentence almost made Shen vomit blood in anger. Not only did it reject her words, but it also reminded her of her identity once again. Why didn't this bitch die yet?
Mu Yuning couldn't hold back her anger anymore and stood up. "Mu Nanyan, why don't you send these things to the warehouse? Although these are for you, we are giving you these good things for the sake of our Mu family. Since you are using the Mu family's reputation, why don't you send the things to the warehouse?"
Mu Nanyan looked at her as if she were a fool. This girl must have stayed in the house for too long and her cerebellum must have atrophied. She didn't even listen to what she was saying. Who in their right mind could say such a thing?
Mu Xiyao crossed her arms and said, "Can you please stop yelling? Didn't you hear what the eunuch said just now? These are gifts for the Ninth Princess. How can they be stored in the Mu family's warehouse? How big do you think the Mu family has such a big reputation that so many princes are rushing to send gifts? Are you still dreaming?"
Mu Nanyan almost applauded her and said, "Well said, keep up the good work."
Mu Yuning blushed and hesitated for a long time before she managed to say: "Mu Xiyao, I am your sister. What right do you have to teach me a lesson?"
Mu Xiyao didn't give in either, she rolled her eyes and said, "Based on my normal brain."
Mu Yuning wanted to say something else, but the old lady sitting in the main seat finally spoke up: "Okay, why are you arguing so early in the morning? Don't you have anything else to do? Go do what you need to do."
The butler of the Fourth Prince's residence heard these words as soon as he entered the house, and said with a smile: "Oh, Madam Mu is so angry so early in the morning. I came at the wrong time."
The old lady's originally stern face softened, "Eunuch Wang, you are joking. I am really annoyed by these girls. They are so young and make noise every day. I am sorry to make you laugh."
