C213 He Was Opposing with Equal Harshness
Prime Minister.
Mu Ruqing did not greet him in advance. Mrs Miao was slightly surprised when she heard that she had returned. Mu Jun, on the other hand, was extremely happy. He had followed Mu Ruqing ever since she entered the room.
When they saw Mrs Miao, the two of them were very tacitly stunned for a while. It was only until Mu Jun smiled and said, "Why are you in a daze?" Mu Ruqing only recovered her senses and hid the anger and doubt in her eyes. She smiled and went forward to meet him.
Mrs Miao hugged Xiaoxiao and thought about the choice Bai Ming gave her. Mu Jun and Mu Ruqing... Mu Ruqing was that person. Mu Ruqing looked at him as he walked in and revealed a loving smile.
"Mother." When it was time to act, she still had to act. Mu Ruqing smiled happily and looked at the little girl and said, "It has been a long time since I last saw younger sister. I really miss her."
"Xiaoxiao has not been digesting food these few days. She often toasts milk. It is better to let the wet nurse carry her. In order to avoid dirtying your clothes, let me take a good look at my daughter." Mrs Miao refused without leaving a trace. The wet nurse took the child and carried it down.
Mu Ruqing looked at Xiaoxiao who was reaching out to her and smiled. In the blink of an eye, she looked at Mrs Miao. She was really wary of me.
"Mother, sister, don't just sit there. This is a pastry that I ordered people to specially make." Mu Jun pushed the plate. In private, he called Mu Ruqing little sister.
"Okay." Mrs Miao smiled. She did not need to choose now. She still had to rely on Mu Jun in the future. However, she was reluctant to give up on Mu Ruqing all of a sudden.
"What is mother looking at?" Mu Ruqing saw Mrs Miao looking at her in a daze and unconsciously asked.
At this moment, there were only the three of them in the pavilion and the guards, servant girl, were waiting outside. And Mu Po was still in the court.
"You have lost weight." Mrs Miao blurted out. She liked this daughter in front of her very much, but...
Mu Ruqing sneered in her heart. When you say this, won't your conscience hurt? She lowered her head and replied, "The weather has been hot recently, so I don't really eat much."
"Then come back today and eat more." Mu Jun pushed the pastries in front of her, looking like he loved her dearly.
"En." Mu Ruqing saw Mu Jun smiling happily and suddenly remembered Mu Quan. She asked, "Where is Brother Second Big Brother? Why didn't he come?"
When she said this, Mu Jun's expression froze. He scratched the back of his head and said, "I'll go and see him."
"Okay." Mu Ruqing's original intention was to send him away. If Mu Jun left, then there would only be the two of us here, my good mother.
"How have you been recently, mother?" Mu Ruqing looked at the stone table and her tone was emotionless.
"She has been making a lot of noise. She didn't sleep well. " Mrs Miao's fingers gently touched the dark circles of her eyes, showing her exhaustion.
"Isn't younger sister wearing a wet nurse's belt?" Mu Ruqing held the teacup and covered half of her face. Only her pair of eyes were examining Mrs Miao, "Could it be that mother is afraid of something?"
Mrs Miao's fingers moved and froze on her face. She laughed dryly, "Hur hur, what is there to be afraid of?"
"Mother, when you say that a person is afraid of something, what will he do?" Mu Ruqing spoke while drinking tea, "I came back from the temple hall. Mother, you haven't taken me back to my grandfather's house yet. Don't tell me mother doesn't want to go back and see him? "
"There is no one in the world who doesn't want their own parents. The Prime Minister's Estate needs me to take care of it, but I can't find the time to go back and take a look. " Mrs Miao revealed a disappointed expression and said in a general manner. She did not want to go back to the Miao Family.
" Oh. Indeed, Mother is a busy person, busy with the affairs of the house and the matters outside " Mu Ruqing spoke tactfully. Now, she could only slowly probe.
"Qing, why are you acting strange today? But who made you unhappy?" Although Mrs Miao asked this question, she had already made up her mind to abandon Mu Ruqing.
"No. I am very good." Mu Ruqing's eyes looked to the other side, thinking about her relationship with Bai Ming.
The situation was in a deadlock. Neither of them said anything. Mu Ruqing was eating her own food and thinking about her own food. Mrs Miao would look at her from time to time.
"Mother, do you still remember the appearance of the old housekeeper of grandfather's house?" Mu Ruqing seemed to have suddenly thought of something and became very interested. She turned her head and asked Mrs Miao. "I remember that when I was a child, he treated me very well at my grandfather's house. I wonder how he is now..."
Mrs Miao had many thoughts about Mu Ruqing's attitude. What exactly did she know? Her mind was also filled with Bai Ming's words, She is the woman you want to kill.
It turned out that Mrs Miao had already firmly believed that Mu Ruqing was her own daughter. But ever since that day when Bai Ming looked for her, she was like a devil and only chose to believe in Bai Ming.
"Why would you suddenly ask about this?" Mrs Miao pretended not to care, "Maybe she went long ago. When you were still young, his health was not very good."
"Is that so? But I heard from Madam Fang that the butler of Faang mansion once let the butler go in the Miao Prefecture." Mu Ruqing thought about it and said while stroking her chin.
Mrs Miao was shocked and her eyes unconsciously opened wide. She pulled on her clothes under the table. " Oh, maybe I remembered wrongly. How do you know Madam Fang?"
" Is that important? " Mu Ruqing's tone carried a hint of provocation. The corner of her mouth curled up. She stood up and looked at the flower in the pavilion. She pulled one of the flowers and said, "Mother, daughter has always had doubts in her heart."
Mrs Miao looked up at her and did not say anything.
"Why would mother be afraid of me?" Mu Ruqing pulled on the flower petals and stopped at the last stretch.
"Why do you have such thoughts?" Mrs Miao's expression was slightly angry as she looked at Mu Ruqing releasing her aura, "Although you are Princess Chu now, you are still my daughter. Do you not even have the most basic respect?"
"What is mother doing?" The flower in Mu Ruqing's hand fell to the ground, "Am I right? Mother might not know, but once, I heard my mother say something about Sect Leader to someone. Who was that?"
" You heard it wrong. " Mrs Miao answered very quickly this time and directly stood up. Her palm heavily hit the stone table.
"Mother, are you admitting that you have indeed met someone in secret?" The happier Mu Ruqing smiled, the more uncomfortable Mrs Miao felt.
"You are really a 'good daughter'!" Mrs Miao gritted her teeth and said. She waved her sleeve and was about to leave.
"Mother, I have seen your Sect Leader. She even gave me a name called Hongrao. Mother, don't tell me you don't know?" Mu Ruqing looked at her back and called out.
Mrs Miao stopped and did not look back for a long time. She did not turn around.
"I also know that his women will not have a good end. He was tired of playing, so he burned them to death. Mother, have you seen it with your own eyes?" Mu Ruqing sat down and played with the teacup.
"What else do you know?" Mrs Miao turned around and was too lazy to pretend anymore. Her eyes were filled with killing intent.
"What else does mother want me to know?" Mu Ruqing asked back.
"Who are you?" Mrs Miao frowned and asked. She just stood there and looked at her.
"Haha, what a joke." Mu Ruqing raised her head and laughed twice. With a dark face, she met Mrs Miao's gaze, "I am the right daughter, Mu Ruqing. Your daughter, King Chu's wife. Are you satisfied with this answer?"
Mrs Miao walked forward and suddenly exerted her strength and pinched Mu Ruqing's chin.
Mu Ruqing's smile did not fade, "Mother, are you going to hit me, or..." Her voice suddenly became softer, "Kill me?"
Mrs Miao thought that she could not touch her now and shook off her head, "Do you really think that I can't touch you?"
"Mother can try."
The two of them opposed each other and were no longer as close as before.
