Xia He wiped the sweat from his face and hurriedly followed Mr. Hou out of Yinfeng Tower, feeling very complicated.
Fortunately, my cousin was still reasonable. Although she looked angry, she did not embarrass the servants like them.
However, the Marquis had tea thrown in his face. Fortunately, the weather was cold now, and the tea cooled quickly, but it was not very hot, otherwise something would have happened.
Li Yi accepted the handkerchief handed over by the boy. The handkerchief had already become cold. Normally he would have to kick it over, but today he had no energy to struggle. The cold touch made his whole body tremble. He remembered that he was standing just now. Outside the bedroom in Yinfeng Tower, I saw the cold eyes of my cousin.
My cousin was really angry.
With a bang, the window was pushed open.
Li Yi turned his head suddenly and saw that Mu Qingyun had changed into light clothes, and his expression had regained some composure, but his eyes were still frightening: "Cousin..."
"That's all."
Mu Qingyun said coldly, "Half a month ago, the old lady didn't let me speak. She and Madam Hou decided my future in just a few words. Yes, the Hou Mansion has raised me all these years, and every piece of paper I have used has been... It was given by the Marquis Mansion, and it is natural that the old lady should take charge of life-long matters."
Li Yi's heart tightened: "Cousin, please don't think like this. Over the years, mother and cousin have become as close as mother and daughter. Mother is closer to you than to me, my son. Your mother is my biological aunt, and she is ours." The upright eldest lady of An Guohou Mansion."
Mu Qingyun's eyebrows gradually softened, and Li Yi and several maids and servants around him felt relieved when they saw it.
There are too many things happening today and they are too big.
There was a hole in the sky, and the gods actually showed up. What's even more outrageous is that this cousin girl in the family, who has nothing special except for being more delicate, is actually a fairy from the sky descending to the mortal world. Who can not be surprised?
After all the hard work, it was simply exhausting.
Mu Qingyun sighed: "Okay, let's give up on our marriage, but this is the last time. I only owe it to the Marquis Anguo's Mansion, but I also ask my cousin, the old lady, and Madam Hou not to interfere with my marriage. I never want to see anyone tampering with my life just because of a few words from a guy who appears from the sky, I don’t know if he’s a god or something.”
She paused and said seriously, "I will move out of the Marquis' Mansion tomorrow."
Li Yi was shocked.
Mu Qingyun waved his hand: "Master Hou, there is no need to say more. Things are so embarrassing. If I still stay in the Hou Mansion, where will my face and the face of our Mu family be put? My father also left me a Zhuangzi, a few acres of thin farmland is enough to support myself."
Li Yi was confused for a while, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind. He was not willing to let his cousin go out to live, and he still wanted to have a good relationship.
Putting aside the fact that my cousin is a fairy, it is possible for the Hou family to follow the chickens and dogs to heaven and also seek immortality. Just because so many noble people in the capital know about my cousin's identity, as long as the Anguo Hou Mansion has a close relationship with my cousin, I really don't have to worry about it for several lifetimes, and future generations will benefit from it.
But we must also consider the thoughts of my cousin’s divine fiancé in heaven.
Li Yi is a man. Although there are differences between immortals and mortals, they are all men, whether they are men or immortals. Their thoughts on women should generally be the same.
If it was his fiancée, not only did she almost marry another man, but she also lived in that man's house ever since... He would have to rip off that bastard's head.
Thinking of this, Li Yi couldn't utter a single word of objection, and kept saying: "When my aunt was here, the dowry given to her by her family included a separate courtyard not far from the eastern suburbs of the capital. It has hot springs, lush forests and bamboos. It is very beautiful. Qingya, if my cousin feels that Beijing is too boring, she might as well go to Zhuangzi and stay for a while."
Mu Qingyun was surprised: "How come I don't remember that there is a hot spring village in my mother's dowry?"
Li Yideng's face was full of tenderness: "My cousin is young, and my mother used to take care of all these trivial things. Now that my cousin is old, it's time to learn how to manage a house. I think my mother will teach my cousin how to manage a house bit by bit." Things."
Mu Qingyun frowned and blinked: "It's okay, even the countryside here in the capital is much more prosperous. If I go back to my hometown, I won't get used to it."
Of course, the original mother did not have a dowry like a hot spring village.
When her mother got married, the Duke of the Hou family prepared a dowry as usual, but they were all old and useless things. They looked like they were packed with thirty-two sets, and they were not worth much at all.
The Marquis's family was rich, but the expenses in the capital were very high, so Fan was reluctant to give a dowry to a concubine.
After closing the window, Mu Qingyun chuckled, but tomorrow, maybe even tomorrow, her mother's dowry would be very large, at least as much as that of the daughter-in-law of the Hou Mansion.
Not long after, the servants came over with food.
It looks very light, a bowl of rice porridge, four longan-sized puff pastry flower rolls, four side dishes, two meat and two vegetarian. One meat dish is beef soup, one is fermented meatballs, two vegetarian dishes, very simple stir-fried rice noodles. Vegetables and scallion oil tofu.
Mu Qingyun took a sip and couldn't help but admire the servants of the Hou Mansion.
Every dish was to her liking.
She knew that her taste was very similar to hers, but she had been a cousin to the Marquis for so many years. She gulped down every meal and was in a hurry. She had never had a solid meal, let alone a meal. Combined appetite.
At the end of the day, the main task of the original body is to serve and take care of the old lady. Naturally, she eats with the old lady. The old lady's taste is soft and the food she eats is bland. She has to wait for the old lady to finish eating first, and then eat quickly. He had to fill his stomach with some food, and naturally ate like the old lady, and he had to rush to accompany others, so he rarely had time to think about eating a solid meal by himself.
Before this, no one in the Hou family cared about what she liked to eat, but in such a short period of time, the taste of the food delivered was not wrong at all. Isn't this the skill of the people in the Hou family?
Seeing Mu Qingyun's eyebrows relax, Xia He breathed a sigh of relief.
She personally went to the kitchen to keep an eye on these meals and asked the best cook in the kitchen to prepare them. The old lady had her reasons for sending Xia He to serve Mu Qingyun at this time.
Xia He had been with the old lady for a long time and knew her cousin very well. She was smart, had better eyesight, and had a good heart. The old lady knew her abilities, so she sent her to Mu Qingyun.
Mu Qingyun finished his meal comfortably, took a bath with the hot water prepared by Xia He, lay on the sofa and had his hair dried with help.
Xia He waited until Mu Qingyun fell asleep, then he breathed a sigh of relief, went out with a lantern and went straight to Huixinyuan in the Hou Mansion.
When she came in, the old lady had not rested yet and was obviously waiting for her. Xia He hurriedly stepped forward, took the horn comb from Grandma Liu's hand, and combed the old lady's hair one by one.
Every night, the old lady had to comb her hair a hundred times before falling asleep, day after day.
