Difficult to be a Concubine

Mu Rousang caressed her head and laughed: "Feng Chai, in the future, if you want to go anywhere and play, as long as you are willing, I will listen to you. Chun Yu, Chun Cao and the others grew up together, together they have learnt martial arts and protected you.

"Wherever my cousin is, I'll go. My cousin is in the capital, so I'm going there to find my wife." Mu Fengchai answered with a small fist in her hand. Only she knew that these words were not coming from her heart. The one who occupied her heart was only her coquettish cousin who was smiling beside her.

However, Mu Rousang was extremely happy. She wished that she could take Mu Fengchai under her wing and help her protect her from wind and rain.

"Silly girl, what nonsense are you saying, not only will my cousin live in the capital, your big brother will also have to enter the Office of the Crown Prince to study, and in the future, my two big brothers will have to leave the capital to train. We will naturally have to keep you in the capital to look after you."

Mu Rousang wanted to marry into the Yang family, and Zuo Renyou's family had to move back to the capital. Naturally, they couldn't leave Mu Fengchai alone in the small mountain village, as her marriage was destined to be arranged in the capital.

"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Are the clothes you brought still sufficient?" Mu Rousang asked her.

Mu Fengchai stopped thinking about it and laughed: "En, it's enough. This time, I also brought some silver coins with me!" After saying that, she took out her purse and opened it, "Cousin, look, I have brought a few hundred silver notes with me. When we reach Xiangyang, I will buy some pretty jewelry for my cousin.

"Aiyaya, this is incredible. Our family has produced another little landlady."

Mu Jinzhi walked over from behind with a smile.

"Big brother is back. How are things over there?"

Mu Jinzhi fanned himself with his fan and said: "It's more or less done, everything that needs to be arranged have been arranged already. Right now, my younger cousin is looking at his lichen with Big Brother Yang, discussing how many floors to build in the restaurant. He also said that it's best if we can sit in a restaurant during the spring and enjoy the beautiful scenery of our little mountain village with a single glance."

"We have to level Fang Xing's foundation over there." Mu Rousang knew that the slope was more than flat ground.

"Don't worry, he's a man of his words. He said he needs to ask you about how the restaurant is being renovated." Mu Jinzhi thought back to what Yang Zixuan had said and he felt quite proud of himself. It was good to have a good sister.

"That's right, why is the phoenix hairpin back at this time?"

Mu Rousang did not want Mu Jinzhi to know, so she smiled: "I was the one who sent someone to send a letter to call her back, and I thought that in another two years, she would be talking about marriage, so I wanted to take advantage of his young age to bring her around for a long look."

Mu Jinzhi had been suffering since he was young, and naturally wasn't as pedantic as an ordinary man from a noble family. He nodded and said: "That's how it should be, quickly tell your little girl to move your luggage over, and we'll squeeze together at night with your cousin. We'll travel together tomorrow morning."

"Got it, cousin!" Mu Fengchai felt a little guilty, she kept having the feeling that Mu Jinzhi could see through her thoughts with just a glance.

"Brother, you're scaring Feng Chai again!"

"I didn't!"

"Obviously!"

"No!"

The siblings bickered as they walked towards the main hall. They quietly stepped on the breeze to send the words of the siblings bickering to another place at the foot of the mountain. There was already a stone arch in that place, and further in the stone monument were two stone tombs, one big and one small.

Because they were prepared to go to Xiangyang, Yang Zixuan and Zuo Ren were busy working at the construction site until the sky turned dark before returning. Mu Jinzhi had long ago ordered some people to tie up the things that were commonly used, and waited for tomorrow morning to move the remaining treasures onto the carriage. The few of them did not chat much after dinner, and went to sleep early.

On the second day, when the morning star was still hanging in the sky and the horizon was covered with a layer of purple light, the Mu Clan's courtyard was already brightly lit and bustling with noise and excitement.

He was unwilling to move with Wang Cai and the others to the County City, and now that he was holding Mu Jinzhi's hand, he said: "Go early and come back early, this servant is old and can't follow by Young Master's side."

"Rest assured Granddad, we will definitely return safely." Mu Jinzhi said.

As for the matters at home, you can rest assured that I will take care of the orchard and those chicks. Young master, I will tell you in secret, when I first saw Young Master Yang, I knew that our young lady's wedding was near, so I specially raised many chicks. When the young lady got married, these chicks were just enough to serve us as mother's chicken soup!

The old chrysanthemum face of the enrollee bloomed in high spirits.

Mu Jinzhi still had something to say, but the servant was already yelling that the auspicious hour had arrived, he knew that the enrolman was talking about how he was reluctant to part with his two sisters, and did not know when he would return to the Little Mountain Village again.

"Granddad, take care. As for the trifling matters of the family, I ask for your help."

"Alright, go on!"

Mu Jinzhi then turned and got into the carriage, the summer morning was cool and refreshing, Mu Rousang then pulled open the curtains of the carriage and peeked out, the village was still quiet, and most of the villagers were still sleeping, with the occasional sound of geese accompanying the wanderers who were leaving home slowly leaving.

After travelling for another ten days, they finally arrived at the Zuo Mansion. Naturally, they had to busy themselves for another day, and the Old Madam Zuo even tightly held Mu Rousang by her side. She had a good feeling, and since the Old Madam Zuo missed her so much, she invited Big Cousin Yu Xiuzhu and Mu Fengchai to accompany her.

The next morning, she went to Old Madam Zuo's room accompanied by a few girls and met Dong Mei who had just woken up. She asked: "Grandmother, are you awake?"

Dong Mei said: "Yesterday, Miss Er came, the old lady was too happy, and at night she got a little sleepy, and at the fourth fragment of the night she will go to sleep, is Miss going out yet?"

Mu Rousang reached out to grab hold of Dong Mei, then stood at the door and peeked her head in. Seeing that the Old Madam Zuo was not disturbed, he said: "Don't wake up the grandmother yet, she is too old for this, let's talk about it when she is awake. I am only going to Xiangyang to drink a cup of wedding wine, and will be back home very soon, to accompany the grandmother."

Dong Mei smiled and replied, "Miss only needs to be at ease and leave, we will look after the old lady here, it is just that the old lady often misses you, I hope that young lady does not become too playful in Xiangyang, and will always think of you as the old lady."

Thank you, Dong Mei, for your advice, I will not stay for long. After returning to the small mountain village earlier this year, I did not expect to return home at the start of April, but who would have thought that this year would be so eventful, and so many things happened.

Dong Mei laughed and said: "It's good that Miss is sincere. As an old lady, I naturally hope that my children and grandchildren will often be by my side."

At this time, a wife came to report that Mu Jinzhi had sent people to urge her to go to the front courtyard. Only then did Mu Rousang kneel in front of the door of Old Madam Zuo and kowtow three times before leaving.

Dong Mei returned the blanket back to the old lady's bed and saw that she had awoken. "Old madam? You're awake! "

"Un, was it my Little monkey just now?"

"Yes, young lady wants to go to Xiangyang to drink a goblet of wedding wine." Yes, young lady wants to go to Xiangyang to drink a cup of wedding wine.

The corner of Old Madam Zuo's eyes moistened, he took out a handkerchief and shakily wiped away his tears: "I have long since woken up, it's just that I don't want to see her leave, when my daughter was still alive, she was already a filial child. My Little monkey is like her, just like my unlucky daughter, not a single one of them wasn't chosen."

Dong Mei immediately replied: Old madam, do not be sad, didn't you see young lady's future Young Master yesterday, this is what you wish for.

Old Madam Zuo is indeed an old child, he was crying bitterly just now, but when he heard Dong Mei's words, he laughed until his old mouth split: "That's right, and that's right, not only is that child handsome, the most rare thing is when my Little monkey is mentioned, his eyes are filled with infatuation, to the point of almost blushing to an old woman like me, hahaha! "When I answered our questions, my eyes were filled with clarity, and I had the heart of a man. As I grew older, I was not far from meeting my daughter, and now only the matter of Jin'er's marriage is left to worry about."

"Old madam, please be at ease. Your servant knows that the young master is a lucky man. With his bearing, who knows how many court ladies he has bewitched in the capital."

"Old madam?" "Old madam!"

Her response was a snoring sound that gradually grew louder.

As for Mu Rousang and the others, they were escorted by Zuo Renyou onto the official ship that he personally arranged for, and travelled smoothly to Xiangyang.

This was Mu Fengchai's first time traveling on a boat, and an official ship of this size at that.

Right now, she was pulling Mu Rousang along as they stood in the boat cabin on the second floor and looking out. Her clear laughter was drifting along the river surface: "Haha, cousin, quickly look, is that mountain the Hunchback Mountain that you spoke of?"

"Yes, I left too quickly this time, when I return from Xiangyang, I will bring you to the Qingming Temple to play. You don't know, every year on the second day of the second month, when the dragons rise, the Qingming Temple will have to dip it in peace, but the large-scale temples only happen once every few years.

She could not help but remember the meeting between Su Ruirui and his during the first half a year, and when he recalled it again, her state of mind had changed greatly, as though it was from a different world.

"Cousin?!" Mu Fengchai realized that after seeing Mu Rousang a few times recently, her mind would always wander as she talked.

Seeing that the boat was already in the middle of the river and the two sides of the mountain, Mu Rousang laughed: "Let's go, we got the little girl and her wife to move the table and put up the bow, and even had some people cover the sun with paper umbrellas, while it's still early in the morning, we can enjoy the beautiful scenery along the river."
