C26

Mo Xian had the system's memory for her, so she was fairly familiar with this Suzhou mansion. After all, she had been here for a month.

Halfway there, she realized that the servants here did not treat her very well.

Perhaps it was because Su Hua was unpopular, and it was even a disaster for her.

She looked around and didn't know if Qi Huaizhao had followed them. If he had come, which one would be him?

She had asked the System just now, but the System had told her that it was not interested in anyone other than the Host.

If he found it himself, would he not be able to find it without this crappy system?

After walking through the long corridor, they finally arrived at Su Hua's room.

Mo Xian sorted out her emotions. She wanted to see what the famous Su Hua looked like.

Pushing the door open and entering, a strong fragrance of crabapple blossoms assaulted his nostrils.

Su Hua really liked crabapple blossoms.

Beside the bed sat a woman. She was dressed in a black robe with golden stripes and a light green robe. A piece of jade hung in front of her lapel and a bun was on her head.

"Miss." Mo Xian bowed.

When Su Hua turned around, a bright yet unalluring face entered Mo Xian's sight. Astonishment flashed across her eyes. She didn't seem like the villain that Su Hua was.

However, he did not know the meaning of words.

"Little Xu, come over here. Let me take a look. What are you giving to Madam properly?"

So the reason she came in such a hurry was to choose a gift.

On the table were a few very expensive looking gifts: a golden ruyi woven from golden silk, a portrait of Kuan Yin; and, lastly, a bronze cicada inlaid with turquoise and precious stones.

Mo Xian didn't understand this very well, but from the information she had received from her memory, the main wife of the Suzhou Courtyard, Madame Hu, didn't like Guan Yin; Jin Buzi's ornaments were probably more suitable for young girls; and as for Jin Ruyi, he could be used to show off, which might be the best choice.

"Miss, why don't you choose the Golden Ruyi?" As expected, Su Hua was puzzled.

Mo Xian changed the reason she had thought about earlier.

Hearing this, Su Hua felt that this made sense, "Little Xu, you really are a clever cleverer. I don't know what to do without you. "

She reached out her hand to pinch Mo Xian's face, but Mo Xian subconsciously dodged. Su Hua was also stunned.

Mo Xian quickly explained, "Miss, we're not at home. If someone sees us now, they will say we have no rules and no moments."

Su Hua's playful expression was instantly wiped away.

However, Mo Xian could tell that Su Hua was on good terms with Xiao Xu, and the Xiao Xu that she was wearing was most likely maidservant from the Twin Peaks Cave. As for why she gradually turned into that, it was still to be determined.

Su Hua suddenly sighed. "What should I do? Liu Lang's mother doesn't like me that much."

She was very worried. Mo Xian didn't know if she had a motive, or if she really wanted to get along with her future mother-in-law. However, from the looks of it, her ending was probably the former.

Mo Xian didn't say anything. Su Hua continued, "Oh right, you had a terrible fever a few days ago. I heard that you recovered a little yesterday, so I sent someone to call you over. Are you doing well now?"

Su Hua looked carefully at Mo Xian's expression. The worry in her eyes was real.

Mo Xian was really confused, but she told the truth, "Miss, it's better now, but my head still hurts a little."

"Since you've chosen your present, you can go back and rest. "If anyone else orders you, just ignore them. You're one of my people, how can I use you?"

"Thank you, Miss." Mo Xian thanked him and walked out.

However, just as they were leaving the courtyard, they bumped into the only son of the Yuan family who came to see Su Hua, Yuan Liuwang.

She bowed. "Greetings, Sixth Master."

Yuan Liuwang didn't look at her. On the contrary, the subordinate beside him glanced at her. Although their appearances were different, their expressions and indifferent emotions were exactly the same as Qi Huaizhao.

Mo Xian suspected that this person was Qi Huaizhao. However, it was definitely inconvenient for her to ask now, so she could only look for another time.

After going back, Mo Xian started to ask Yuan Yuan about Yuan Liuwang's underling.

"You often stay by Sixth Master's side? Are you saying that he was the one who did it? How could you not know him? When Lord Sixth went to study in the capital, he was a scholar's attendant. You have been by your young lady's side all day, have you not seen her before? "

She had seen him before, but she couldn't tell if he was the same person in her memories or not.

"I was just casually asking, don't worry." Mo Xian quickly changed the topic. "By the way, Madam's 50th birthday is coming soon. Are you ready?"

As expected, Yuan Yuan's attention was diverted immediately, "Of course. When was I, Yuan Yuan, not able to handle this quickly?"

"My work isn't finished yet. I'll leave first." Mo Xian ran off as soon as she finished her sentence.

Night came.

The full moon was high in the sky. Mo Xian sneaked out and went to Yuan Liuwang's yard with her memories. There were still lights inside, but unfortunately there was someone guarding the door. She couldn't just go in to find them.

However, she was unwilling to return just like that, so she squatted under the bamboo nearby.

He looked so pitiful that he almost had a beggar bowl in his hands.

The man suddenly appeared behind her and looked down at her from above. After staring for a while, she was still completely unaware and silently sighed.

If there was a wild beast behind her, he would have already taken her in his mouth.

"Hello."

Mo Xian was startled by the clear, cold, yet tender voice of a man behind her. She jumped up like a rabbit.

The man held out his hand to stop her from falling.

She turned her head and looked at him warily, as if she wanted to see a hole in him.

"You are?"

"Who do you think I am?"

"How do I know who you are?"

"You don't know who I am?"

The two of them continued with their boring questions and answers.

In the end, it was Qi Huaizhao who lost first. He lowered his voice and said, "It's me."

Two words were enough for Mo Xian to recognize him.

Surprise flashed through her large watery eyes. Even though she had passed through them, she still maintained the clarity in her eyes. This was something that was hard to come by.

"Qi Huaizhao, you scared me to death! And here I thought you were that errand boy. " Mo Xian clutched her chest.

"I really am that errand boy."

Mo Xian laughed heartily. "I didn't expect that you would become a bookkeeper one day!"

Qi Huaizhao made a face full of smiles. The errand boy originally looked average, but with Qi Huaizhao's demeanor, there was a hint of him.

"Same here. "Congratulations on becoming maidservant again."

Mo Xian: "?" That seemed to be the case, but why did she do it?

The reading attendant held a higher position than her, who was maidservant's close friend.

He even had to lower his head when connected to the world of mirrors. What a shame!

"The time is not early. Let's go back." Qi Huaizhao was afraid that someone would suddenly come. The two of them were not related because of their master, so if they were found out, they would be chased out of the residence.

After Mo Xian confirmed it was Qi Huaizhao, she felt relieved. At least she wasn't the only person in the world.

However???? Why had he held her hand?

Mo Xian didn't have a chance to ask this question because the moment she turned around, Qi Huaizhao was no longer where he was.

-

Madame Hu's fiftieth birthday just happened to be three days away.

Wealthy families attached great importance to this. They invited many guests in succession, as if they were having a wedding banquet.

Fortunately, Mo Xian was Su Hua's personal maid, so she didn't have to participate in the kitchen work.

However, it wasn't good to be by Su Hua's side either. All of the guests who had arrived subconsciously glanced at Su Hua.

After greeting Madame Hu, some of them even shouted loudly, "You haven't even passed through the door, yet you're already eagerly running home. Is this a Miss from Beijing?"

However, when Madame Hu heard this, she did not retort.

When the crowd saw that she did not return the favor, they became even more excited.

I'm just going to pick out some heart-piercing words.

"The Yuan family is quite prosperous, isn't she here just for this!"

"This vixen look, I think she'll be able to seduce people in the future. The only son of the Yuan family should be careful. "

"To be so shameless, I think anyone can have a share of the share!"

Most of those who came to attend the birthday feast were married women who had given birth to children, and they spoke without stopping their mouths.

Seeing their eyes, Mo Xian felt like rolling her eyes and giving them a gift, "So what if you look beautiful? Did you guys eat your family's rice when you were beautiful? "

Su Hua, who was being discussed by the crowd, remained relatively calm. However, in a place that others couldn't see, she had already tightly gripped her hands with her stained fingers.

Actually, Mo Xian didn't quite understand why she was still so patient and reluctant to leave Yuan Liuwang even at this stage.

However, those who remained patient until the end would be the big winners. They would have to wait and see how the situation developed.

However, this birthday banquet had let Mo Xian personally witness how Madame Hu disliked Su Hua. The enmity between women had always been silent and intense.

The guests arrived one after another and took their seats in one go.

Since Yuan Liuwang had to entertain his mother, he didn't care about Su Hua's side. Actually, he knew that his mother didn't like Su Hua very much. He just thought that Su Hua treated her mother better, that her mother would take her in one day.

If Mo Xian had heard this, she would have beaten him to death. It was precisely because of this kind of man that their mother-in-law relationship would have gotten even stronger. How could one side please the other?

As the Yuan family was a wealthy family, they usually did not lack money. Therefore, the women who came to win Madame Hu's hand all came up with some novel things.

Madame Hu beamed when she saw this.

When it was Su Hua's turn to present the jade ruyi, Mo Xian initially wanted to present the golden silk jade ruyi for her, but she insisted on carrying it herself.

Her figure was graceful and her steps were steady. It had to be said that Su Hua was a very proper lady. Mo Xian didn't understand. Madame Hu really hated Su Hua.

"I wish Madam luck and health for her longevity." Su Hua knelt down and held the jade ruyi above her head.

When the crowd saw the expensive and transparent jade ruyi, they all stared at it.

Even Madame Hu, who was used to seeing rich objects, couldn't help but be shocked. Where did this little hoof come from? Buying this would require connections and gold cubes.

She seemed to have thought of something and her expression suddenly sank.
