Chapter 135 Is it really possible that he is mentally ill?
After Mu Nanyan left, Li Yangyang was not idle either. She asked people to go to the street to buy a lot of things, and took Jun Zhuoxiao and the baby directly to the palace. She originally wanted to go tomorrow, but after thinking about it, she still felt that it was not right, for fear that if she went too late, Mu Xiyao would be snatched away by someone else.
Jun Zhuoxiao was speechless about this. What could he do? He could only spoil his wife. Besides, Mu Xiyao looked nice too. If she could get together with the fourth brother, they would be a perfect couple.
Jun Xingchen didn't know anything yet. He just knew that he was going to the palace to see the Royal Grandmother again. He was so happy that he specially selected snacks from his small storeroom and loaded them onto the carriage. "This, this, and this, bring them all to the Royal Grandmother. The Royal Grandmother likes sweets just like Xingchen!"
When he saw that the maid had loaded everything he pointed out onto the carriage, he got on with satisfaction.
When Mu Nanyan and the others arrived at the shop, the plaque had already been delivered. The name was decided yesterday and sent to the palace that afternoon for the emperor's calligraphy. The plaque was delivered by the palace this morning.
Mu Nanyan lifted the red cloth. Hmm... As expected of His Majesty, these words! Tsk tsk tsk! Elegant and majestic, giving people a rich feeling.
"Hua Xiangrong... Big sister, you have chosen a very good name!" Mu Xiyao's eyes sparkled as she praised from beginning to end.
Mu Nanyan thought: Of course not, there are bad poems by Li Bai, the clouds look like clothes and the flowers look like face, the spring breeze blows on the threshold and the dew is gorgeous.
"Thank you Yaoyao for the praise. Someone, come and hang up the plaque now. Make sure to cover it with red cloth when we open tomorrow." Mu Nanyan called people. The two sisters Xiaomi carried the stools, Yuan Wu carried the table out of the shop, and Wushuang followed Wanxi behind holding the plaque.
When they finished hanging the plaque and entered the house, they saw Mu Nanyan and Mu Xiyao each holding a rag, "Miss, how could you have done this? Go and have a rest."
"Wan Xi, you are exaggerating. It's okay. I'm just wiping the cabinet. It won't make you tired. Okay, put all the bottles in the box on the cabinet and get ready for tomorrow." Mu Nanyan picked up the rag again and simply wiped the middle cabinet.
Yuan Wu went outside to move the boxes into the house one by one. The rest of the people were responsible for classifying and placing them, and also sticking the notes written by Mu Nanyan on the corresponding cabinets.
Several people were busy all afternoon, and it was not until Mu Zhi came that they found that it was already dark outside. "Boss, this is the account book of the shop today."
Mu Nanyan took it and glanced at it briefly. In fact, she didn't understand it at all, so she handed it to Mu Xiyao directly, "If you have such a thing in the future, just find Yaoyao directly, no need to find me. She is the shopkeeper of our shop and is responsible for checking the accounts."
"Muzhi has made a note of this. I will look for Miss Yao next time." Muzhi bowed respectfully to Mu Xiyao.
Mu Xiyao smiled and said, "No need to salute. And you, it always feels weird calling me Miss Yao. Why don't you just call me Miss Fifth? I'm the fifth child in the family." She liked Mu Zhi. It was not a romantic relationship, but just pure admiration. Although this man's medical skills were not as good as her elder sister's, he was hardworking. She didn't have to worry about any big or small matters in the hospital. She just had to keep accounts and do the math, or help buy and sell medicinal materials. Every account book she saw was almost more detailed than the ones she wrote herself.
"Yes, Miss Five."
"It's getting late, so let's leave it at that for today. We've almost done what we need to do. Tomorrow we'll ask the two concubines to come and have some fun together. Today we'll go back home and have a good rest. Everyone has been tired these past few days, so relax at night." Mu Nanyan put the things in her hands in order, took Mu Xiyao out of the shop, and reminded her before leaving, "Remember to close the doors and windows."
In the palace, Jun Xingchen started to follow the queen since he entered the palace. It was almost curfew time, but the queen was reluctant to let him go, "Xiao Xingchen, run slower and don't fall."
"Mother, please just sit back and relax. He has become stronger these days and can run more agilely than before. Don't worry!" Li Yangyang said while supporting the queen.
The queen followed her strength and sat on the chair. "Yes, I think I am better now. Fortunately, I have Yan'er. If you ask me, Yan'er is the lucky star of Dongli. Don't you think so?"
"What mother said is true. She is not only the lucky star of Dongli, but also the lucky star of our Jun family. Mother, you must bring Empress Rufei with you to the opening of Yan'er's shop tomorrow. It is better for her to see Junqi's affairs in person."
"You are right. I have seen the fifth girl of the Mu family. She is very clever and follows Yan'er around every day. I heard that this girl is the manager of the shop that Yan'er opened. Her maternal grandfather's family is also in business. They are the famous imperial merchants in Kyoto, the Jiang family. It is her father, oh! Let's not talk about it. It makes me angry just thinking about it." The queen sighed heavily, with impatience on her face.
Li Yangyang also thought so. She really didn't know what Prime Minister Mu was thinking. It seemed that the only thing in his mind was his second daughter. Nan Yan was so outstanding, but he still ignored her. Was he really mentally ill?
"Yangyang, you should stay with Xingchen tonight. We are going to Yan'er's place tomorrow anyway, so why don't we go together? I want to be closer to the emperor's grandson." It happened that Concubine De was not here and no one was competing with her for her grandson. She had to spend some time with the little emperor's grandson today to consolidate her position.
Concubine De sneezed in front of the Guanyin statue. This... must be the Queen muttering to her again, Amitabha, Amitabha...
"Your Majesty, please put on more clothes. It's cold in this temple at night, and you've been meditating here for so long. You should take a rest and eat something." The maid knelt behind her and chattered.
"Okay, keep quiet. You guys go out first. I'm not cold. Let me stay for a while." Defei closed her eyes and slowly turned the Buddhist beads in her hand. She moved her mouth slightly and recited Buddhist scriptures softly.
She had just come to the temple yesterday to pray for peace. She had heard about this temple from her mother, and it was said to be very effective, so she came here, thinking of praying for good health for Xingchen and Yangyang, and peace for Mu Nanyan. This girl was very nice, with good character and medical skills that were probably second to none in the whole of Dongli.
Yangyang and Xingchen are so lucky to meet her. God bless them! God bless them!
Jun Zhuoxiao was still in the imperial study, thinking that he could pick up his wife home after dinner, but he received an oral order from his mother, so Yangyang and Xingchen had to stay in the palace tonight. It was really a pity that he had to accompany his wife and lose another soldier.
Looks like I'll have to stay alone in the empty room tonight!
When the emperor heard that Xingchen was staying in the Queen's palace tonight, he was overjoyed. He asked Jiang Su to send the second prince out of the palace, and he went straight to Fengyi Palace.
Mu Nanyan didn't want to argue with anyone today, so she climbed over the back wall of Jinsheng Courtyard with Mu Xiyao. Su Lianyi heard the sound and hid in the dark. She relaxed when she heard that it was Mu Nanyan who came back.
"Yan'er is back, why didn't you go through the main door?" Su Lianyi asked.
Mu Nanyan said listlessly: "I'm tired today and don't want to run into a mental patient."
"That's right. I just asked someone to prepare the meal. They should be back soon. You haven't eaten yet, right? Hurry up and wash your hands and get ready for dinner."
As soon as Su Lianyi finished speaking, the maid came into the yard carrying a lunch box.
"Aunt Su, you are so nice. You are like a worm in my stomach. I am starving to death!" Mu Xiyao rubbed against her.
Su Lianyi didn't push her away, and gently touched her little head, "Okay, let's eat."
Just as they sat down and had a few bites of food, an uninvited guest arrived...
