Du Mu Zhou extended his hand to pick up the Hibiscus cake from the table and chuckled: "Fourth sister, come! I'll let you have a taste of my new pastry. "

Du Bingxuan swallowed her saliva, "Thank you elder sister, Xuan'er is not hungry." She had only eaten a little breakfast before her aunt dragged her away to pay her respects to the madame. She was actually rather hungry by now.

Du Mu Zhou glanced at Fourth Concubine. "Could it be that Fourth Concubine was afraid that I would bully Fourth Sister? She followed me here in such a hurry."

Mrs Ma looked a little embarrassed. Unlike Third Madame, she didn't have much status in the mansion, so she didn't dare to breathe too loudly in front of Du Mu Zhou, the direct daughter of the family.

"What are you talking about, Eldest Miss? It's just that last night, Fourth Miss suffered a slight chill and caused a ruckus. I was afraid that she might disturb Eldest Miss, so I followed."

Mrs Ma hurriedly gave Du Bingxuan a look. "Since your big sister rewarded you, why aren't you accepting it?"

Du Bingxuan received it with a face full of joy. She directly took one and stuffed it into her mouth, "Delicious, thank you big sister."

Du Mu Zhou's face revealed a hint of a smile: "Fourth Aunt, don't think too much about it. I just stayed in the manor for a long time and missed my fourth sister a little."

In her previous life, Du Bingxuan seemed to like her very much. She had always secretly praised her beauty, and she had once secretly given Du Bingxuan quite a bit of delicious food.

Unfortunately, after she got married, she had very little contact with her sister. She was pregnant with Mu Yufeng's fourth concubine in the first year of their marriage, but in the end, she slipped and died accidentally at the age of four months.

Du Bingxuan had become a transparent person in the Prime Minister's Estate.

Du Mu Zhou had also wanted to bring her to the Sixth Prince's Estate. Unfortunately, his reputation didn't make sense, so he gave up on this idea.

Jian Jia brought a bag from the back room with a couple of exquisite gadgets inside.

"These are all small toys that were sent over by the Duke of Guo's estate in the past. I'm almost at my prime, so I'll give them to fourth sister for her to play with."

Du Bingxuan's eyes lit up as she stared at the Nine Twists Ring inside. She did not wait for Fourth Madame to speak before urgently agreeing, "Thank you, Big Sis."

Mrs Ma's face was anxious. "How can that be?"

"Fourth Concubine, don't worry. I've already passed the booklet." "Each item was gifted to me by the Duke of Guo. Today, I gave them to my fourth sister. Nobody can snatch away my fourth sister's things."

Only then did Fourth Concubine relax and accept it.

Du Mu Zhou told Ling Long to send them off, and then he said, "The Narcissus in the courtyard will open up soon. Send them to Fourth Sister as well."

"Thank you, Eldest Miss."

When most of the guests had arrived, Second Madam brought Du Ruanyu to the Old Madam's courtyard to chat with the madams.

On this side, Du Mu Zhou had his people move the flowers to Du Bingxuan's courtyard, while on the other side, servants had already secretly gone to the Hall of Longevity to report to Du Ruanyu.

Du Ruyu was so angry that her teeth itched.

"I already told you not to act rashly. Mother has her own ways." Second Madam soothed Du Ruanyu by patting her hand to calm her mind, "Accompany each of you ladies to the back garden to play for a bit."

Du Ruyu's emotions calmed down and her smile returned to her face once more.

When she heard that the second prince, both civil and military, would come to present her grandmother with a birthday present for the Royal Family this year, she had been excited for a very long time after hearing the news, so she had to perform well today.

The Second Prince's mother was the imperial concubine Hui Xian, and she had the backing of the Yang family.

Most importantly, this second prince was born with a domineering aura with his sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes. It was unknown just how many girls in the Jiang Capital were secretly hoping for him.

The guests came one after another, and the men gathered in the main hall to flatter each other. The madams were all staying with the madame in the Hall of Longevity.
