C34 Shameless

In the morning, she went to greet the old lady. The old lady gave Mu Ruqing a pair of green jade bracelets made of glass.

Lau Fenglan and Mu Ruxuan had asked for that bracelet for a long time and the old lady did not let go but Mu Ruqing only gave her a greeting. The two of them were naturally jealous and wished that they could share her with them.

Mu Ruqing only treated it as if she did not see and did not see and was not annoyed.

She went to treat Mrs Miao again and Mrs Miao gave the first grade servant girl, Xiangyi, who took care of her, to her. There were also more than ten sets of clothes and a few large boxes of jewelry...

When they were about to reach the courtyard door, they met Lau Fenglan.

"Elder sister, I originally wanted to come and see you a few days ago, but grandmother needs someone to accompany her, so I was a little late. Elder Sister, would you blame me?" Lau Fenglan's big and blinking eyes revealed guilt, making people unable to bear to blame her.

"What is younger sister saying? They are all sisters of our family. Come, let's go to the courtyard and have a cup of tea." Mu Ruqing said with a sweet smile, holding her in her hand.

Who didn't know how to act? It all depended on who had the best acting skills.

Lau Fenglan looked around the room as soon as she entered. She was indeed the daughter of the Prime Minister and she used the best quality ones. Compared to her own courtyard, the difference was not just one or two points. The jealousy in her heart was even greater.

Lau Fenglan's expression did not change and her tone was aggrieved, "Fenglan is so envious of elder sister."

" Oh? "

"Fenglan's family background is not the same as the Prime Minister's residence. Her current usage speed in the residence is already better than before..."

This was because she was crying to Mu Ruqing about how bitter she was. There was nothing good about it. She must have been jealous of the things that her mother had given her. If she did not give her a little bit of sweetness today, she was afraid that her heart would not be at ease. Now, she had to create an image of a good person...

Mu Ruqing gave Lingyue a look and consoled, "Younger sister, don't be sad. Today mother gave me a lot of things and I will not be able to use them all by myself. Younger sister, if you don't mind, why don't you pick some to use."

"Elder sister..." A look of disdain flashed across Lau Fenglan's eyes and she was so soft-hearted? Then she thanked, "Thank you elder sister. Elder sister treated me like this and Fenglan remembers it. Then Fenglan will not be polite."

Lau Fenglan picked three sets of clothes and a whole box of jewelry and happily left.

"Miss, look at her like that. Her nostrils are all up. You really shouldn't have given it to her. She's an outsider to begin with, so she doesn't deserve to use such a good thing" Xiangyi was a mature person, but she was also a quick talker.

"It's fine. Anyway, there are so many things that I piled up to accumulate dust. Why don't we do a favor?" Mu Ruqing did not seem to mind. "Don't speak nonsense with Madam. Otherwise, you will cause trouble."

"This servant knows."

The servant replied, "Miss, Third Miss is here." Lingyue looked outside the door, "I guess Third Miss is also here to ask for something."

"Why are these people coming one by one? Is it because our Miss owes them?" Xiangyi pouted and shouted towards the door.

"Alright, you are not afraid of people hearing you." Lingyue smiled and tugged at her. What a straightforward person.

Mu Ruxuan entered the door and did not greet and directly sat on the main seat. It was as if she was the owner of the house. Xiangyi originally wanted to say something but Mu Ruqing patted her hand. She just stood there and watched the proud Third Miss play some tricks.

"Fourth Sister, have you heard about the banquet in Shan Pavilion's old home two days later?" Mu Ruxuan looked at her from the corner of her eye, her eyes full of disdain.

"I know. Why?" Mu Ruqing didn't even look at her and just drank her tea.

Mu Ruxuan saw that Mu Ruqing did not look straight at her and felt defeated in her heart. One must know that before Mu Ruqing came back, she was the most favoured Third Miss in the Manor. Mistress Ling was doted on by prime minister, so naturally she would be more arrogant and domineering. But when Mu Ruqing came back, even the servants in the mansion dared to say that she was a pheasant pretending to be a phoenix behind her back. Now that the main person had returned, let's see how arrogant she was...

People who were used to being arrogant since they were young naturally could not tolerate it. They wanted to give Mu Ruqing a show of strength.

"You have been raised in the temple since childhood and have never been to the banquet. You do not know many of the rich families outside. I am here to tell you the rules that you must pay attention to during banquets. Otherwise, there will be a mistake. It would be a disgrace to the Prime Minister's estate" Mu Ruxuan had a look of success on her face.

"Of course I can't compare to Big Sister. I've been through a lot since I was a child. Everyone knows that Third Sister is a concubine's daughter of the Prime Minister's residence." Mu Ruqing glanced at her from head to toe and sneered. " Shan Ge's old home was a big family, and his daughter was a consort in the Palace. The one hosting the banquet is his eldest daughter-in-law, so he naturally invited more royal relatives. Most of the food the other party ate was for tribute. Although the material of Third Sister's clothing was a high-quality satin, he even had to trouble Third Sister to find a decent dress. Otherwise, it would be a disgrace to the Prime Minister Estate. Those who don't know would think that my mother didn't give you clothes to wear! "

" You! " Mu Ruxuan was so angry that she chopped off her feet. She had a few good clothes on the material. She was naturally reluctant to wear them at home, but she actually took them and said that. "I am your third sister, and you dare to contradict me. Could it be that the nun in the temple didn't teach you some manners? "

"My aunt taught me to treat people with respect. My third sister came to someone else's yard. She didn't greet him and directly took the main seat. When it comes to people with no morals, naturally you can speak rudely. " Mu Ruqing spoke faintly. When faced with an impatient character, one could be slow. It was not like she was the one who was angry.

"What are the two sisters talking about? Let Aunt hear it too."

Mistress Ling's voice was charming and she was also moving. She had given birth to two children but still maintained them so well. Her front, back, and back were all full of curves. No wonder her father pampered her so much.

Mu Ruqing thought about it and smiled as she went forward, "It's just a joke."

When Mu Ruxuan saw Mistress Ling coming, she thought that she had a backer and said aggrievedly, "Aunt, I came out of good intentions to bring up my younger sister. Instead, she says that I am not!"

Mistress Ling frowned and asked Mu Ruqing apologetically, "Did Ru Jing say something to Fourth Miss to be obedient? Did she anger the young miss?"

Mu Ruxuan saw that Mistress Ling did not help her and instead blamed her and tears almost fell out, "Aunt ~"

" Quickly apologize to Fourth Miss! " Mistress Ling ordered.

"No, I didn't do anything wrong. Why should I apologize?"

"Apologize!" Mistress Ling was angry. Mu Ru Jing ran away while crying.

"Is Third Sister alright?" Mu Ruqing asked with concern, "Could it be..."

"Fourth Miss do not need to mind. I understand Ruxuan's character and she will be fine in a while. After all, it is her fault. I will compensate for her. She is still young and is a little willful. Fourth Miss do not take it to heart."

Seeing Mistress Ling's fawning face, Mu Ruqing shivered. She was still young? Then I will be very old? Ah.

He still had to continue acting.

"It doesn't matter. We're both sisters. It's just a few jokes."

"For the banquet two days later, I would like to invite Fourth Miss to bring Ru Jing to experience the world..."

"There is no need to worry about this aunt. Mother has already planned to bring the young miss of the family."

"It is just that... Ruxuan does not have any good stuff. I am afraid that she is unable to take it out..." Mistress Ling said with some embarrassment and looked at Mu Ruqing's expression.

Mu Ruqing's face was indifferent, "I ordered people to pick a few clothes and jewelry and they are already packed. Aunt will bring them back later. Just treat it as a meeting gift for Third Sister when I return."

"Fourth Miss is indeed tolerant. I will say thank you on Ruxuan's behalf." Mistress Ling naturally had to smile happily when she got the advantage.

Mu Ruqing had finally witnessed today that the women in the house were very thick-skinned...

At night, Mu Ruqing came back from Mrs Miao's place and Mrs Miao told her the etiquette that needed to be taken note of during the next day's banquet. After all, she had never attended a big banquet. As they passed by Mu Po's study, there seemed to be a conversation going on inside. She sent Lingyue back first. She carefully stood outside the door.

"Prime Minister, the position of Minister of Ministry of Revenue is vacant. Eldest Prince's son Second Prince strongly recommends his people. The competition for this position is intense. The Emperor means..."

"I know this matter is difficult to handle. Eldest Prince, Second Prince, can't accept anyone. He wants a completely new person without any family background!"

" Prime Minister, there is a person here who is the top scholar of last year's autumn examination, Shi Chong. Due to his straightforward character, he offended both sides openly and secretly and was demoted to a coastal town. "

"His surname is really the same. Shi Chong. Good. Although he is rigid, he has a strong sense of righteousness. Since he could be the top scholar, his knowledge must be good. Not bad at all!"

"Good..."

Yuen Qing heard the general idea and quietly left. When she returned to the courtyard, she picked up a pen and a letter to let Lingyue deliver it.
