After seeing off the Liang brother and sister, Li took Chen Muqing's hand and whispered: "Do you see if the third son of the Liang family are good?"

Chen Muqing thought of Liang Jimin's soft eyes when she looked at Liang Youhui.

She is indeed a gentle gentleman... but as a husband... she doesn't seem to have the feeling of being moved!

She avoided this question and smiled softly: "Madam, I think you are obsessed with it. It's good to see an unmarried person... Well, you haven't asked if someone is engaged? You're in a hurry to push me there..."

Li pretended to be angry and smiled and hit Chen Muqing's hand: "What do you know if you have eaten a few rice?"

Chen Muqing knew that this was not a joke. She curled her smile and said seriously: "I just want to find someone who treats me wholeheartedly."

Li's smile gradually faded, and a layer of sorrow appeared between his eyebrows: "Do you know what you are talking about?"

Chen Muqing nodded: "A person's life is so long, no one knows what will happen. I just want to be kind to me at this moment, at this moment."

Li lowered his head and murmured: "...At this moment, at this moment, I will treat you wholeheartedly..."

Chen Muqing snuggled gently on Li's shoulder: "Madam, when you and the master were young, there were times when they were wholeheartedly..."

Li shook slightly, turned his head to look at his daughter who was lying on her shoulders.

With his big eyes open, he looked at Chengchen with a peaceful expression.

It's like staring at the vast sky.

"Silly child!" She couldn't help but feel sad and gently touched the silky black hair, "This is the most difficult... the most difficult thing in the world..."

*******

Early the next morning, Chen Muqing went to pay tribute to Li, but saw that Mother Wang had brought Qiuseju people to comb Li's hair.

Qiuseju is specially designed for people to dress up. Generally, when a wealthy family marrys a daughter or attends a banquet, they will invite Qiuseju people to comb their hair.

Chen Muqing was very strange.

Mother Wang smiled with a slight hint and said, "Mrs. I'm going to visit Chengyi Bo Zengju's wife later-I heard she feels a little uncomfortable."

Chen Muqing thought, "Does their family also have adult sons or nephews?"

Mother Wang covered her sleeves and smiled, whispering: "The Zeng family has only one legitimate son, who is fifteen years old this year. There is also a nephew, who is fourteen years old this year..."

Chen Muqing sighed secretly.

When it was time to hold the lights, Li came back from Zeng's house with a tired face. Chen Muqing personally served her onto the kang and brought warm water.

Mrs. Li took the teacup handed over by her daughter, took a sip, and tilted on the big welcome pillow tiredly.

Chen Muqing whispered: "Madam, do you want to lie down first and then pass on the meal?"

Li took a breath and said, "Have you eaten?"

Of course I didn't eat it? But seeing Li's appearance, Chen Muqing didn't want her to care about herself and hurriedly said, "Today, Zhuji's mother, I'll kowtow to me. I asked the kitchen to make some pastries for them to take back, and I ate some myself."

Li nodded: "What did they say when they come?"

"Say thank you for your grace." Chen Muqing took the little maid's hot handkerchief to wipe Li's face. "Because his wife presided over the marriage for Baimu family, it was difficult for her to come and kowtow to her. When Zhuji returned to the door, she would come to pay her respects to her. She also made two pairs of shoes and four pairs of socks for me."

Li asked his daughter to wipe her face and said, "It's hard for them."

Chen Muqing handed the handkerchief to the little maid beside him, and helped Li clamp his shoulders.

Li sent the people in the room and whispered to Shen Muqing about the situation of going to the Zeng family today: "...Although he is fifteen years old, he is still childish. Wherever he goes, the maids and servants are surrounded by flowers. Mrs. Zeng cannot do anything for a moment. He acts quite naive... His nephew has a good look, but he often appears a little arrogant from time to time, I am afraid he is not gentle..." He looked very disappointed.

Chen Muqing asked Li to lie down and press her back: "This kind of thing has to be said to be destined... Madam, don't worry, fate comes naturally."

Li just said nothing.

The room became quiet and I could clearly hear someone yelling under the eaves.

Chen Muqing frowned and was about to get off the kang to take a look. Li had already called Chengxiang: "Come in and answer!"

Chengxiang walked in with a grievance on her face, bowed her knees and saluted Li, and said, "The sister-in-law of Aunt Chen's family is going back, so she will resign. When I saw that the wife was talking to the girl, she asked her to wait, and she was impatient..."

Li frowned: "When did she enter Beijing?"

Chengxiang said: "It is said that Lord Chen's term has arrived and he will be on duty at the marquis of Beijing in the beginning of spring. Aunt Chen's younger brother and sister-in-law took the lead and took this opportunity to visit Aunt Chen in the middle of Beijing. He just came yesterday and lived in Gaosheng Inn. He came early this morning. When his wife went out, Aunt Chen personally took the person to Gongyuan."

Li's face was as normal as she was, and she couldn't tell whether she was happy or angry. She tidied her temples and said lightly: "Let her come in!"

Chengxiang went to lift the curtain, and Xianglian walked in with a woman in her early twenties.

She was wearing a green-bottomed apricot and yellow persimmon-shaped silk wool zipper, a moon-white silk-haired silk-pinning brocade skirt, a pair of red gold cloud-toe shoes on her feet, a hairpin with cat's eye stones on her head, a red gold lantern pendant on her ears, and a tourmaline inlaid on her forehead was as big as a nail. Chen Muqing looked familiar, as if it was all Aunt Chen's things.

The woman looked up at Li, then bent down and kowtowed to Li: "I, Chen Duan, kowtowed to my wife."

Xianglian also asked Li for peace.

"Get up and talk!" Li said politely, "Yongxiang, bring a little slap to Grandma Chen."

Yuanxiang responded, rubbed for a while, then turned around and ordered the little maid to bring a small slap and put it next to the floor cover.

Chen Duan moved the little monk to Li's kang.

Xianglian was very anxious, but Chen Duan had already sat down on the little stele and said with a smile: "I have long wanted to come and see our aunt. It's both a boat and a horse. It's inconvenient. It's not until today."

Li smiled slightly: "Since you are here, come and sit often." As he said that, he served tea.

Chen Duan nodded repeatedly: "That's right, it's right. Speaking of which, this is the first time I have been to Kyoto. Unexpectedly, Kyoto is so prosperous, and its food, clothing and consumption are very different from ours. No wonder others say that our aunt has a good life..."

Xianglian went to pull Chen Duan's clothes.

"What are you going to do?" Chen Duan opened Xianglian's hand with his backhand.

Orange scent covered her mouth and smiled.

Xianglian showed embarrassment on her face.

Chen Duan continued to smile without any ignorance: "It's the first time I have seen Brother She. He is so beautiful. The heaven is full and the pavilion is round. He answers in an orderly manner. He is more knowledgeable than the seven or eight-year-old children in our place. In the future, he will definitely be like Master Su, a material for becoming a high-ranking official..."

The faces of the servants in the room changed drastically. Xianglian was sweating profusely and pulled Chen Duan's clothes: "Grandma Chen, it's not early this day, my aunt told you to go back and rest early!"

When Chen Duan heard this, he said "Oh", stood up with a smile, and said to Li, "Look at my memory! I will go to see the house with Dashe's uncle tomorrow. We are going to find something to do in Kyoto... I'll leave first! Madam, let's take a break early!"

Mrs. Li didn't even look at Mrs. Chen Duan, and picked up the teacup and took a sip.

With the silence of death in the room, Chen Duan's voice gradually drifted away clearly: "...what did you pull me to do...I said nothing wrong..."

*******

The next day, Li went to Wang Quan's family, the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice.

After she came back, she just sighed softly, as if she was not even interested in talking to Shen Muqing.

After running around like this for a few days, the swelling on Li's face became even worse.

Chen Muqing was very reluctant and said, "Madam, take a break at home, and don't worry about this moment."

Li wanted to speak but stopped.

Chen Muqing saw that Li's expression was full of worry, and he rubbed against her like a child to make trouble for her: "Madam, how did you prepare for Baimu? I have prepared everything on my side, so I'm waiting for Baimu to make a reservation. Don't just think about running out all day long, you have to worry about it!" It's quite like a colorful costume to entertain your relatives.

Li touched his daughter's head lovingly, hesitated for a long time, and said softly: "Do you know the real intention of giving Zhuji marriage to you?"

Chen Muqing nodded.

"I'm not a child anymore." She said coquettishly, "I know you want me to practice my skills through Zhuji's affairs, and I will understand these human feelings in the future. My mother in charge of the family will be scruples in her actions in front of me. She is helping me establish authority at home!"

"Then tell me, what else do you know?" Li's eyes gradually became distant when he looked at her.

Chen Muqing pretended to be contemplative, and after a moment he turned his head and smiled at Li and said, "I also know that Zhuji can marry Baimu, which is the decent you give me."

Li's eyes were a little cold: "What else?"

Chen Muqing was stunned.

Why did Li ask this? To be honest, she just said that Zhu Ji married Bai Mu because Li gave her the decent, which was just a flattering... Li not only out of normalcy, but also took the credit to her without hesitation, but also asked her "what else"...

She couldn't help but think about what Li said.

Li ignored her and drank tea on his own.

After a while, she saw that her daughter just frowned but did not reply. She couldn't help but sigh: "Do you think that just by relying on Zhou Bing's little thoughts, I will cry my brother Qiu a few times, and I will follow his wishes and let him pick people in my room?"

Chen Muqing looked up in shock.

I saw a sharp light flashing like a blade in Li's eyes.

"Mu Qing, listen well. I will only say it once. Whether you can listen or not depends on your understanding." Li's tone was extremely serious.

This is something Chen Muqing has never seen before.

She couldn't help but sit upright.

"Although our Shen family cannot do the bullying of women and servants, it is not a family that does not have rules and acts casually. You collude with each other and hide what happened in the Medicine King Temple from me, so I will be an old man. Who knows that you have this strategy but you don't have this courage."

By the end of the conversation, the voice and expression were stern.
